TRAINING - Socialize Pomeranian puppies

Socialize Pomeranian puppies by letting them meet strange people and animals every day. Some dog training experts recommend letting puppies meet five new people and animals every single day. This will make them less afraid of the people they meet as well as teaching them how to act around new people. Keeping them too isolated can mean inappropriate behavior around strangers, such as biting or jumping.

DOG FAQ - What is the best way to house train a Pomeranian?

This type of training can be a challenge with small dogs. We suggest trying crate training, to give the dog a “den” that it will naturally want to keep clean. The key with the Pomeranian puppy is patience and consistency. Your Pomeranian will want to please you and is very intelligent. By working with this breed in a deliberate manner, you should be fine.

TRAINING

The best way to train your Pomeranian is to use treats, a clicker, and a smile. Following a few simple steps will keep your dog on the path to success. Getting rid of negative Pomeranian training behaviors, as well as bringing in positive behaviors, is quite easy to do.

The first step is to keep things simple. As you begin to work with your Pomeranian, you want to be sure that you are starting in a very easy way. In order to get rid of negative behaviors, you first need to install positive behaviors in your dog. The best place to begin is with the "sit" command, which is a very easy command for dogs to learn. In order to teach them this command, hold a treat above their heads and walk towards them until they sit down to receive it. A gentle push down might be something that you add. After you have mastered this, you can move to "down" and "stay". These three commands together make up the basics of dog training.

Once your dog has mastered these basic commands, you will have much more command over him. Remember that praise and positive encouragement are the best ways to create this bond. Now that you have taught him a few good things, you can start to concentrate on helping him learn how to avoid the negative Pomeranian training behaviors.
