DAKOTA VETERINARY HOSPITAL PET PATROL PET CARE TIP FOR THIS WEEK:
To train a dog the best way is leash training. Find a properly fitting harness that your puppy cannot slip out of. Use treats to lead and praise them. We recommend practicing in quiet areas that are fenced in. Practice for short amounts of time until your puppy is confident. And Never pull a puppy while on a leash. If your puppy refuses to walk, kneel down to your puppy’s level to comfort them before trying again. If they still won’t walk, pick up your puppy and try again in an hour.
