Miniature Schnauzer Puppy Training


So, when do you start training your new puppy?

DAY ONE!


Miniature Schnauzer Puppy Training

There’s both good news and bad news when it comes to puppy training your new miniature schnauzer:

The good news: mini schnauzers are smart.
The bad news: they can also be stubborn.


So, it is important to start training your mini schnauzer right away!



Every miniature schnauzer should learn the basic obedience commands: sit, stay, come, heel, and down.

BUT - We will cover crate training & potty training first.


note: Go to the dog trick training page to learn how to teach your miniature schnauzer the basic obedience commands PLUS lots of other fun dog tricks.



But 1st Crate Training………….

Advantages of Crate Training:

Since a dog’s natural tendency is to keep his sleeping area clean, crate training your miniature schnauzer will help with housebreaking your puppy. Your puppy will learn that when he has the ‘urge’ - he can hold it. And by using the dog crate while you are busy with household chores, or away from your home, you are helping keep your puppy safe.

The dog crate is also great to use when traveling with your pet. Your puppy will learn to identify a sense security and belonging to his crate. It will become his own 'doggie haven'.

Crate Training will help you raise a well-behaved dog.

security and belonging”



Puppy Training Reminders:

Keep in mind your new puppy is probably frightened now that he is on his own and away from his litter mates – so let him sniff around and explore his new surroundings.

During this time - 'watch him carefully'.

Puppies have to go potty quite often. So any sign of your puppy beginning to squat or circling an area, is your cue to pick him up and take him outside or put him on the pee pads and use the ‘potty’ command of your choice.

Once he relieves himself make sure you praise him.

Okay - Are you ready to test your patience, time, & sense of humor?
