About two weeks ago, I got a puppy. He is a yellow lab and is going on thirteen weeks. I have been working hard to train him. So far we have worked on SIT, COME, WAIT, and lay DOWN. When I have his food, or a treat, or a toy (something that he wants) he will listen more effectively then when I just give him a command. I want to be able to give my dog a command and have him listen reguardless if I have a treat/food/toy or not.
The more time I spend with him and the more I get to know him, he will learn to listen to me and view me as his "master." Trust between us will hopefully build up as he gets to know me. Everything is about having a 'routine' with a puppy/dog. He will eventually learn when it's time to eat, take a walk, or go to sleep.
The communication between us will excel to a higher level everyday that we spend time and get to know each other a little better.
