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 move your hand up, allowing their head to follow the treat. This will cause their bottom to lower. Once they sit, say 'Sit' and give them the treat.
2. **Stay**: After your puppy has mastered 'Sit', you can teach '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. Gradually increase the distance and duration.
3. **Come**: This command is crucial for safety. To teach 'Come', use a leash and call your puppy while gently pulling them towards you. When they reach you, reward them with a treat and praise. You can also practice this in a safe, enclosed area.
4. **Down**: To teach 'Down', have your puppy sit first. Then, hold a treat in your hand and move it towards the ground. As they follow the treat, they should lie down. Once they are down, say 'Down' and reward them.
5. **Leave It**: This command is important for preventing your puppy from picking up something dangerous. Hold a treat in your hand and let your puppy sniff it. When they try to get it, close your hand and say 'Leave it'. When they back away, reward them with a different treat.
6. **Heel**: Teaching your puppy to walk nicely on a leash is vital. Start by having them walk beside you on a loose leash. Use treats to encourage them to stay close and say 'Heel' when they are in the right position.
7. **No**: Teaching your puppy the word 'No' helps them understand boundaries. Use a firm but calm voice when they do something undesirable, and redirect them to a more appropriate behavior.
Consistency, patience, and positive reinforcement are key when training your puppy. Keep training sessions short and fun, and always end on a positive note to keep your puppy motivated!
