How to Train Your Dog Capturing and Luring
Your dog will respond best to positive
re-enforcement. Use bite-sized treats, his
favorite toy, and a high pitched soft-toned voice
while training your dog. If you can capture him
in a behavior that you are trying to teach, label
that behavior with a command and immediately
reward him.
5
You can also lure him into the behavior by using
a toy or treat to get his attention. Have him
follow the lure into the behavior that you are
seeking. To lure a down, take a treat straight
down in front of your sitting dog.
6
When he does, label the behavior by saying down
and reward him. Using your leash or hands to
force your dog into position will not be as
effective and might cause your dog to fear you or
the leash.

How to Train Your Dog Using a Hand Signal
You can attach a hand signal when teaching vocal
commands. Hand signals are a way to give your dog
a command when you not able to speak to him.
Also, hand signals are the best way to repeat a
command.
8
Instead of saying Sitsitsit! you can say
Sit once, and repeat it with a hand signal only
if your dog does not obey. Otherwise, your dog
may learn to not only sit once you have repeated
the command a number of times.
9
On another note, dogs are physical and visual
creatures. In the pack, they communicate with
body language, so hand signals may be more
effective as the dog may be more receptive to
them than spoken word.
10
Being the leader of the pack is the best way for
you to keep your dog listening to you. Always be
consistent and firm with your dog. Have him work
for attention and feedings have him do a command
before he gets something he values. This will
remind him that you are the leader of the pack.
