1. **Sit**: This is one of the first commands you should teach. To do this, hold a treat close to your puppy’s nose, then slowly move your hand up. This will cause their head to go up and their bottom to lower. Once they are in a sitting position, say 'Sit' and give them the treat.
2. **Stay**: Once your puppy has mastered 'Sit', you can teach them 'Stay'. Start with your puppy in a sitting position. Open your palm in front of you and say 'Stay'. Take a few steps back. If they stay, reward them with a treat. Gradually increase the distance and duration.
3. **Come**: This command is vital for safety. Start in a quiet area, call your puppy’s name followed by 'Come' in a happy tone. When they come to you, reward them with a treat and praise.
4. **Down**: To teach 'Down', start with your puppy in a sitting position. Hold a treat in your hand and let them sniff it. Move your hand to the ground, and as they follow it, they will likely lay down. As soon as they do, say 'Down' and reward them.
5. **Leave it**: This command helps prevent your puppy from picking up harmful objects. Hold a treat in your hand and let your puppy see it. Close your fist around the treat and say 'Leave it'. When they stop trying to get it and look away, reward them with a different treat.
6. **Heel**: Teaching your puppy to walk beside you on a leash is important for safety and control. Begin walking with your puppy on a leash. Use treats to guide them to stay close to your side and reward them for staying in that position.
Remember to keep training sessions short and fun, ideally around 5-10 minutes, and always end on a positive note. Consistency and patience are key. Happy training!
