Yes. If the dog is on the furniture, don't acknowledge the behavior but move the dog off the furniture. And then, whenever the dog lies on the floor, praise the dog lavishly--and pet the dog and treat the dog.

Your puppy fell off the couch?

Puppies are sort of like babies learning how to walk and they can have falls. Falling off most couches isn't that long a fall and having carpeting helps. As long as your puppy isn't limping or crying (moaning or yelping) then your puppy should be fine. If you think something is wrong with your little puppy then please take it to the vets right away. Please let us know how your puppy is doing.

It depends on what your puppy and you feel comfertable doing, but here are some ideas. - You could put the puppy outside on a runner and wet it with the hose just barely on, (NOTE some dogs may be afraid of the hose and do not spray it from afar) lather the soap in, and then rinse it off. -You can put it in the tub, put the water on warm, and wash it in your bathtub.

Is there anything you can do about your dog shedding hair beside brushing every day?

Well there are a few things you could do about it, but only two answers are the best.Buy one of the dog hair vacuums. They're handheld, and really get the job done.Also, try to train your dog to not go on the furniture by saying loudly, and in a stern, low voice "OFF!" The dog will either be startled and jump off, hearing the alpha dog in your voice, or it will stay on the furniture. If it does stay there, give it a strong nudge on its behind while repeateing off again. When the dog gets off the furniture, give a treat, praise it, and say "OFF STAY" slowly, the dog will begin to understand. Hope I helped!

What to do if you over feed your puppy?

First off, cut down on the food supply. Resist those begging eyes at the table and refuse to give it any scraps. Walk your puppy more often, it's not only beneficial for the puppy, but you too!

What can you prepare for your 3 month old puppy at home?

Puppy's usually won't be potty trained by this time. Most people deal with this by blocking off the carpet area's of their home with boxes or tables until the puppy is potty trained. The puppy will be teething when it comes home, so having a verity of chew toys is important (Note: Don't let the puppy chew on rocks, it's bad for their teeth). Get small objects away from the puppy's reach, and make sure that all food it placed somewhere so the puppy cannot get to it (puppy's can climb on tables or chairs to get on counters where food is). Get him/her licenced and get a leash. Have a fenced area for him/her to run in at your home/apartment where your puppy can run, or find a park where s/he can play. Some dogs like a doggy bed to sleep in while others prefer to move around the house. But it's always nice to have a doggy bed to see if they want it. Get your puppy a vet to give him/her a checkup make sure s/he has all of his/her shots, and discuss with your vet the amount of food and type of food your puppy should have. Take your puppy back to the vet after a few weeks to make sure your puppy is getting the right amount of food and exercise.


Puppy Training Aids?

For first time owners of a new pet dog, puppy training can seem and indeed be a daunting and frustrating experience. From the inevitable toilet mishaps to chewed furniture, from refuse bags being torn asunder and scattered through the house or garden to simple infuriation at not being able to communicate to your puppy just what is required of it. After the glow of having a cute new puppy has worn off, sometimes it can seem like it’s all too much trouble. Fortunately there is a huge range of aids to help with training your puppy. House breaking pads will help in training the puppy in where is acceptable to relive itself, and save the owners the hassle of continual floor cleaning, once the puppy is accustomed to this the pads can be gradually moved towards where you would like it to take care of it’s business once trained. Stay away sprays train the puppy that certain items such as furniture, shoes, garden accessories are strictly off limits when it comes to relieving those teething problems, saving the owner untold expense in return for a small outlay. Once the puppy reaches 2-3 months old, it will become more adventurous and will need command training to help keep it under control during physical activity. Various whistles, both audible and high frequency are available, some with different pitches, which can be associated with different movement commands. Clickers can also be used for the same purpose. Puppy training aids such as these will help give direction and provide clear means of communication, even over considerable distances. For physically stronger puppies, choke chain harnesses can be used when the puppy tries to continually pull on its leash while being walked, and the puppy will learn to be walked, rather than take its owner for a walk! Another type of collar provides the ability to “remote control” train your puppy that certain behavior is wrong, by means of a radio frequency receiver in the collar, a remote control, and a spray of lemon juice. Used together, these puppy training aids can make teaching your pup more fun and a lot less frustrating!
