Here’s just one of the handy tips that dog lovers will find on www. special-dog. com

“An easy and often overlooked form of Shih Tzu training is to simply keep objects that might tempt her out of reach. Whenever she starts gnawing on a forbidden item, remove it immediately and tell her “No, no!” in your most disapproving voice. Then give her an approved chewing object (always keep a variety of safe chewing toys on hand) and praise her when she chews it. She will soon learn to prefer her approved chew toys because they lead to praise instead of scolding.”

Another tip on housebreaking a puppy includes:

“When learning how to housebreak a puppy you should encourage your puppy to use a specific area. Initial ’paper training’ will only give you an extra lesson to teach them later. They may also develop a habit of peeing on any newspaper!

“A good, healthy, regular diet means that your puppy should need to “go” at roughly the same time each day, usually just after they have eaten. Remember your puppy needs to urinate at shorter intervals. “

The website also offers suggestions on what to do with a dog that pulls on its lead when someone, or another dog, approaches.

“A dog who is highly excited needs calm, slow handling. A common mistake owners make is to move quickly, grabbing at the leash and collar.”

For anyone that has ever taken a dog for a walk, they will understand just how valuable this advice can be.
