Sun, 09 Aug 2009 06:51:51 +0000 http://www.trainapuppy.org/236/#comment-621 I would say that using a leash is more than ok. Another thing you might want to try is finding your pup's favorite treat/toy. I would also advise that if your dog is "toy driven" enough, then use toys to train so that your dog doesn't pork up. I would suggest the classic tennis ball, merrit balls, or squeeker toys. Squeeker toys are especially good for the ADD dog because the sound can regain his attention. Other advice is just set yourself up in the least distracting room. At this point, going outside could be even worse because of all the smells. Also, keep training times short, ten minutes and under for now. Always end on a good note, and consider clicker training, which does require treats but can be very beneficial. If you do use treats, I recommend taking that amount of kibble out of your pup's dinner. From my answer matches your question! I would say that using a leash is more than ok.

It takes puppies a while to learn word association same as human babies. I would however recommend the leash for things like stay and sit, cause then when he tries to run of you don't have to run after him. Then he'll think its a game instead of learning time!

He needs to understand that you are the "leader of the pack". Once he realizes that, he will respect you start to listen. If you get on the floor and play rough with him, he'll think, "This is what I used to do with my siblings!" and he will lose that respect that he has for you. Puppies have lots of energy. Try to get him to play fetch with you. Sit on the couch and roll a tennis ball back and forth. He will probably pounce on it. Then you can start to roll the ball farther while saying, "Go get the ball, now good boy, bring it back, bring it back!" Once he picks the ball up, praise him. It's important for your dog to know what certain words mean. Sit, down, stay or rest, and go to your place (aka a bed or crate) are basic commands. Sit is usually the easiest to learn. Put him on a leash and say, "____ sit." and gently push his butt down. Start out small and work with him a few minutes a day. You'll soon see a difference.

The lease will help the puppy focus on you. Also, this will most likely cause him to better behaved when it gets older, mostly because it will see YOU as the pack leader. I’d say, yes.

I would not try training with a leash in the home. There is no reason why you can't take him out in your backyard by leash unless you have many stray dogs that come through there. Just don't take him to strange parks where he could possibly pick up any viruses. He’s just a wee pup - give him time. I would not try training with a leash in the home.
