Instructions

    • 1
      Use a tone that reflects the type of message you wish to convey. Commands require a firm, strong tone, while praise should be delivered in a happy, excited tone.
    • 2
      Begin with your dog's name every time you speak to your dog. This will get the dog's attention and let it know you are speaking specifically to it.
    • 3
      Maintain eye contact while speaking with your dog. Proper eye contact will keep you in control of the interaction and let the dog know you are still talking to it.
    • 4
      Voice a command only once. Repeating yourself is ineffective. If you tell Spot to sit and it doesn't work, say, "No. Spot, sit." If Spot still fails to obey, physically remind the dog what the command means by pushing down gently on its hindquarters and helping it into a sitting position.
    • 5
      Tell your dog exactly what you want it to do. Rather than simply saying "No," provide your pup with an alternative, such as "Sit" or "Down."
    • 6
      Be consistent. Use the same command consistently when speaking to your dog. For instance, when your dog jumps on someone, always say "Down." Don't use an assortment of commands such as, "Off, "Sit" or "Don't do that."
