Dogs that are handled and petted by humans regularly during the first eight weeks of life are generally much more amenable to being trained and living in human households. Ideally, puppies should be placed in their permanent homes between about 8 and 10 weeks of age. In some places it is against the law to take puppies away from their mothers before the age of 8 weeks. Puppies are more fearful of new things during the period from 10 to 12 weeks, which makes it harder for them to adapt to a new home. Puppies can begin learning tricks and commands as early as 8 weeks of age; the only limitations are stamina, concentration, and physical coordination.

Best Training Guides

Training is most effective if all those who handle the dog take part in the training to ensure consistent commands, methods, and enforcement. Classes also help socialize a dog to other people and dogs. Training classes are offered by many kennels, pet stores, and independent trainers. However group classes may not be available until the puppy has completed all of its vaccinations around 3 – 4 months of age missing out on the vital years for your dogs training. Classes can also cost a lot of money to attend. Many places in the U.S charge upward of $5000 per year, the good news is that you can train your dog all by yourself. You just need the right advice from experts in the field, and put your theory into practice. It does not matter the age, type or size of your dog, they can all be trained. You just have to know how.
