Training
your puppy to stay.
When puppy obedience training - normally the next step after training
your puppy to sit is then training your puppy to stay.
1.
You need to first start the obedience training with regards to the
command by using the "stay"
"sit" (that you have just
learned)
command with your puppy - so that he is sitting directly in
front of you.
2.You should sit or stand (I find sitting better as it is less
imposing) in front of your puppy - and then place the palm of your hand
in front of him and say stay in a short sharp but friendly manner
remember your aim is not to frighten him.
3. After you have said the command you should step away leading with
your right foot.
4. Take only a couple of steps away from your puppy and again repeat
the stay command - you can repeat this dog training command twice.
5. After you have repeated the stay command twice - you can then take
the two steps forward so that you are in the same place where you
started initially.
6. Now you are back standing directly in front of your puppy - give him
a treat and lots of praise - you now need to move your puppy so that he
knows he is not been playing but learning.
7. Continue this training until you feel your puppy is obedient and is
understanding exactly what you are training.
8. After a period of time and depending on how the training
has progressed you can start increasing the distances, so that he has
to stay for longer periods of time and at a greater distance.
