If you want to know how to train your Airedoodle puppy, this article can help you get in the right mindset.

The key to any training program is getting your dog to respect you; without respect, this training process is key if you would like the training process to go over smoothly. Unfortunately, trust and respect won't just come to you. You will have to earn the trust and respect of your dog through positive interaction. Once the dog learns to trust the owner, the training process will go a lot more smoothly.

One mistake that many new dog owners make is that they believe love and affection to be trust and respect. It is good to show your new puppy that you love it, but you must also gain its confidence and respect. You must also lay down some ground rules; don't let the puppy think that it can do whatever it wants to. Most people do not realize this, but it is easier to let a dog take advantage than you might think. You must establish rules and set boundaries and make sure that the dog knows what is acceptable and what isn't.

Because dogs do travel in packs, led by a pack leader who sets boundaries, your dog will like the fact that you are setting down some ground rules for it. While in a pack, every dog knows its place and never dares to get out of line. This structure allows the pack to work together and function properly. You must realize that your dog is looking to you for leadership, and if it believes that you cannot lead properly it might become confused.

Good luck on training your new Airedoodle puppy!
