    About this ebook

    Do you want to know the secrets to raising a prized pooch? Do you want your doggie to be the favorite from your backyard to the neighborhood park?

    Are you struggling to get your canine to stop chewing long enough to learn the command, "Sit!"? If you love your new dog but it's driving you crazy, the burden is on you to change the situation.

    Because each dog has its own personality type, identifying the particular characteristics of your dog is half the battle in training it. All dogs need some level of discipline and Secrets Dog Training Methods will educate you in the very best practices of canine instruction so that your dog is well liked by others and well loved by you and your family.

    While most dog training programs stop at issues regarding curbing your dog or getting it to listen to a few commands, Secrets Dog Training Methods actually reveals how to deal with serious problems that plague most families when they bring a new pet home to live with them.

      Breeds of Dogs

      There are hundreds of different breeds of dogs to consider before visiting a breeder.  Consider the size of dog you want, the length of coat you are willing to take care of, and the requirements to create a healthy living environment before you settle on a breed.  Large dogs should not be kept in a small living area, and small dogs typically are not left outdoors.  Also research the different types of diseases and sicknesses each breed is more susceptible to contracting.  Separating dog breeds into large dog, medium dog, and small dog can help when considering the type of dog you are seeking to make your pet.

      The top ten dogs for breeding include:

      Golden Retriever - Golden retrievers are a large breed of dog that are loving, energetic, and great with children.

      German Shepherd - German Shepherds are another large breed of dog that is energetic, loyal, and intelligent.  German Shepherds are used as K-9 dogs in the criminal justice field.

      Labrador Retriever - Labradors are large breeds that are friendly, easy to train, and very energetic.

      Yorkshire Terrier - Yorkies are small dogs that are loyal and energetic.  They are somewhat apprehensive with strangers.

      Poodle - Poodles are loyal and intelligent dogs that make great companions for anyone.

      Dachshund - Dachshunds are small, protective dogs that are loyal to their owners.

      Beagle - Beagles are great hunters and have a great sense of smell.  Despite this they are very loyal, and calm with people.

      Shih Tzu - Shih Tzus are smart and obedient medium-sized dogs that like attention.

      Bulldog - Bulldogs are mellow and kind with children, and very protective of their family.

      Boxer - Boxers are great with children, energetic, and assertive.

      While these are just a few of the breeds which are popular, there are many more that are taken home every day.  Each breed has various grooming and exercise needs, and will grow to different sizes.  Some dogs are used more for lap purposes, watchdogs, hunting, and others as great companions for children and other dogs at home.  Depending on your needs and the dedication you are willing to offer to your pet, there is a dog for every family.

      Finding Appropriate Breeders

      There are certain U.S. Humane Society recommendations that can help you find an appropriate breeder to adopt your dog or puppy from. It is important to use your instincts when purchasing from a breeder, if something does not seem right or you wouldn’t let your dog live the same way the breeder does, politely excuse yourself.  The start of a puppy’s life will inevitably set the standard for their disposition and behavior for the rest of their life. A good breeder should also:

      Demonstrate Knowledge - A good breeder should first of all be knowledgeable about the breed and how to take care of them appropriately.  Ask basic questions that a good breeder would know and understand.  A responsible breeder wants to inform you of everything you need to know to have a healthy, happy dog.

      Provide References - Breeders should also keep track of other who have previously purchased from them, it is understandable if you ask them to provide a reference for you to contact about the dogs which are available. Additionally ask them to provide a veterinarian reference, so you can verify the medical care provided to any animal.

      Family Members - A breeder who keeps their dogs as family members, rather than in kennels or dog runs is important.  They should also not be afraid to show around the dogs sleep, eat, and play areas.  It is necessary to understand the environment the dogs are used to and what conditions they are kept in.

      Encourage Bonding - All breeders should encourage you and your family to visit more than once.  Offering time to meet and play with the puppies is needed to create a bond with an animal, and find the perfect new pet for your entire family.

      It is important to find and purchase your dog from a reputable breeder that can be trusted.  A dog that is not from a reputable breeder can have diseases, is more likely to be aggressive, and may not be a pure bred.  Dogs who are not purebreds are still trainable and are just as good of pets as those which carry only one breed of dog in their genes.

      Caring for a Dog

      Prior to purchasing or adopting a dog it is important to
