Dog training should begin the very first day you bring your seven-to-eight-week-old puppy home. However, many inexperienced dog owners are afraid to start training their new puppy at such an early age. They have a training phobia which makes them think that starting certain training methods and obedience protocols with a young puppy may cause the dog to not like them. In addition to this worry, they are also afraid that they may injure the new puppy.
If you fall into this category of a new dog owner who has the same dog training phobias, then it is time to educate yourself on the truth. The fact is that early dog training will help to create an even stronger bond between you and the pup than if you waited until he is older. And as far as worrying about hurting the little guy, injuries should be nonexistent so long as you are gentle.
