How can you train your schnauzer?

Answer 1

Well it all depends. Are you planning on teaching it tricks or basic commands? Some basic commands are sit, come, and lay down. start with sit- hold a treat above the dogs nose and gently push on the rear. come- this is pretty easy call the dogs name and hold out a treat. lay down- put the animal into a sit position and place a treat on the ground. if the dog doesnt lay then gently slide the paws down. for tricks some beginner ones are spin and paw. spin- take a treat and put it in front of the dogs nose move it in a circle. hopefully the dog will follow. paw- hold your hand out and place the dogs paw in it. reward with a treat. Remember always say the command when the dog does it. in order to punish never hit, instead ignore. hope this helps! good luck
