How soon can I begin training my new puppy for basic commands?

Train each puppy individually and keep sections short, no more than 5 to 10 minutes at a time. Begin with one basic command such as "sit" or "lay down". Be patient and consistent. Use plenty of praise and rewards as they progress.

A 30 day old puppy is not ready for any training yet, Actually, it should still be with its mommy until the age of 60 days. It still needs to be a puppy without a job or training for another 2 months or so, then you can start potty training. As for commands, the brain is not developed enough to learn commands. Be patient.

It is never too soon to start some basic training and at 9 weeks she should be more than ready even if she is small. I would keep training sessions short but frequent. If she loses interest, stop and try again in a few hours. I really like Sophia Yin's book The Perfect Puppy in 7 Days - she recommends integrating training into your daily routine. https://www.amazon.com/Perfect-Puppy-Days-Start-Right/dp/0964151871/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1524569051&sr=8-1&keywords=the+perfect+puppy+in+7+days

Thank you for submitting your question regarding your new puppy. Dogs do not gain physical control over their urination and defecation until 4-5 months of age. At this stage, you are just trying to be consistent and create predictable routines for him. This will teach him what to expect and where he should go to the bathroom. However, he is much too young at this point. As far as walking on a leash, this takes time for puppies to learn as well. Most are more comfortable with this by 3-4 months of age. Most puppies can sit on command by around 8-10 weeks of age. Continue to work with him and be patient. He will learn. As far as exercise, playing with toys with keep him occupied at this age. I hope this information helps!

She is able to start learning immediately - the most important skills are sit, wait, come and 'leave it'/drop. With these you can attract her attention and focus and ask her to put down anything undesirable she may pick up whilst out walking. Be sure to use positive reinforcement and encouragement throughout training and do not attempt to punish her if she is confused

I think spending 30-60 minutes with her each day is good for general puppy training. You may have to split the times up in to smaller intervals to help keep her attention. As far as what you want to train her on all depends on what all you want her to do. I would definitely teach her to sit, stay, and lay. You can also teach her to properly walk on a leash. Some other tricks like shake and roll over, etc are also fun to teach. You can easily find the methods to teach them these easy commands at home. It does take time a report on to help them learn these commands. I hope this helps!

You can start training your puppy right away :) The best way to train is to use treats to show Tukas what you want him to do, then reward with the treat when he gets it right. You can teach sit, lie down, stay, come, and heel this way very easily with most puppies. If you want more detailed information on puppy training, I would highly recommend the book "Perfect Puppy in 7 Days" by Dr. Sophia Yin. It's great for new puppy owners, and goes into much more detail on how to train your puppy.
