Simple Dog House Training Methods

Some breeds are easier to train, but some can be very stubborn.  It also depends on the purpose of training.  Teaching basic obedience can be a little easier, as compared to more difficult commands, or if training for agility competition and dog sports.
The cheapest way of course, is to do the training yourself.  You just need to devote some of your time, quite a lot of effort and patience.  Training the pet personally can also improve dog-owner relationship.  It allows one to bond with his dog, teach him the commands he want, and be able to commend the pet for his obedience.

Dog house training is the simplest way of training and this can be done in several ways.  First one is to get a leash. Never put a dog on a retractable leash if he known problems with aggression or pulling. Also never let your dog off the leash if he is aggressive or likely to provoke other dogs. A leash length of six foot is usually sufficient to allow you good control but without your dog feeling like he has no freedom.

Next step is to get a dog crate. No owner would like to see his pet out in the dangerous streets or exposed to harmful elements outside the house.  Having a reliable pet containment is the easiest way to keep pets secured.  There is a wide variety of containment products such as crates, kennels and pet fences that can safeguard pets.
