There are many different breeds and each will have to be trained differently.Some dogs,like golden retrievers,are great family pets,while others like dobermans,are natural guard dogs.Smaller dogs,chihuahuas,usually have an inferiority complex and bark constantly to compensate.It is your job to be knowledgable about the breed you want and train your dog accordingly.
The reason most people are reluctant to get a dog is because they fear their house is going to become his bathroom.When puppy is between 8 and12 weeks old,start training him to go to designated areas to relieve himself.
First,buy a crate,which is basically a cage.if you make a habit of making the dog sleep in it at night,the pup will regard it as his bedroom and trat it with respect.dogs generally avoid soiling their personal space.Also,young dogs have to evacuate their nutrients about every three hours;take them out of the house often to keep away unwanted accidents inside the house.
Eventually,try to get your dog out of the house around the same time each day.After a short while,the dog will be caught up in the routine and will only at these designated times.When you see the dog relieving himself,say'HURRY UP'.After doing this for a while,the dogwill associate the expression with the action and will be able to do it on command.
Should you ever catch the canine as he prepares to let go inside,grab the collar,and in an authoritative voice say 'NO'.Lead him outside and,after he takes care of business,reward him by petting and praising him.
