Dog training can be very challenging. It can be so challenging, in fact, that sometimes, you wonder who's the trainer and who's the trainee. If you and your pooch have been locking horns over it's education, here are some dog training techniques that can help.

1. Train your dog to "come." This is arguably the most important command that your pet should learn. After all, you're bound to need to steer your dog away from major danger at one point or two in all the time you spend together.

The bad news is, this command is typically very difficult for dogs to master. If you are training a puppy, then make the "come" command very attractive. In other words, give your pup a good reason to obey. Kneel or crouch, and then say "come" after stating the puppy's name. Then, reward obedience with a treat. Afterward, use different locations and situations, such as when the dog is on a leash.

2. Teach your dog to "sit." Another one of the most important dog training techniques, this command teaches your pooch to sit. To do this, stand directly in front of your pawed pal and give the "sit" command. Reward successful executions with a treat. Next, take canine education to the next level by giving an audible command and a hand signal- and, of course, do both while standing directly in front of your pet.

3. Train your dog how to behave on a leash. Place the collar on the dog while it's eating, so it associates both the training and the collar with something pleasant. The next step is to clip the leash onto the collar until the dog gets used to this command. Next, walk your hound around the house before you progress to walking it outdoors. It's important that you stop walking the moment your pet pulls on the leash. Also, always call your canine back to you, rather than yanking on the leash.

Dogs can be, well, dogged especially when you're trying to train them. Use these three dog training techniques to make your hounds education more manageable.
