Rewards for your dog training sessions
For the most part many dogs love to get rewarded, I mean wouldn’t you? This is what we use to train them; giving them a reward every time they do what you want is vital in this kind of training.
The first and best kind of reward is food, or treats, they are easy to carry around as many of them are small and you can buy them at any place that sells dog food. Plus almost all dogs can’t resist these, so when you start your training go buy a pack of dog treats.
Most dogs like the treat with some kind of meat and cheese in them, now be flexible and if your dog doesn’t like some treats try other ones. Just because it said your dog will love it on the bag doesn’t mean your dog will always like it.
Another kind of reward is a non edible one, something such as patting it or scratching your dogs belly are examples of what I mean. Some dogs like this and if your dog does not like the treats that you give them then this is something else that you can consider.
Showing that you love your dog is something to consider as your dog will love you only as much as you love it. Also by doing this you two will gain some trust between each other resulting in a better overall experience when you train your dog.

Do you ever have to wait for your dog to do its thing? I mean like who wants to wait 20 minutes in the rain waiting for your dog to go, no one, and this applies to any outdoor situation. Here is an article on how to train dogs to poop on command.
So to train your dog you first need to take it out on a walk and when the dog starts sniffing around, find a spot to do its thing you say a command work. Examples would be like “get busy” or “do your thing”. Right after be quiet until your dog is all done then give it a treat or something like that.

Also keep in mind the words that I choose to use, like “get busy” and “ do your thing”, you can choose and words you want to use but make sure they are not every day words. Like if I were to say “hurry up” as my word to signal my dog to poop well what if I was in a hurry and I told my wife to “hurry up” while my dog was right there. My dog might just take that as a signal to poop and he would do it right there which then will make me mad. So my point is to make sure you choose a phrase or word that you don’t use that often and isn’t used in frequently in everyday talking.
Do this for about 1-2 weeks; the time depends on your dog. Different dogs have different rates of them getting trained. Then whenever you decide to take your dog out to poop just say your word and it will be done. Easy and a quick way on training your dog to poop!
How to train dogs not to bark
To Barking is something compared to the human way of shouting. Except it sounds a lot more intimidating and very sound. Dogs do this when they are upset or mad. Also they may bark when they are trying to protect themselves, most of all dogs decide to bark because they get lonely or something similar to that.
So how do you train dogs to not bark?
One way is to get your dog to bark on cue, this makes it so that you are able to train your dog to control their barking. This way they understand to not bark unless you give them a command or something like that. I would suggest you do this kind of dog training with your dog, I have tried this with many people and it is very effective dog training method.
Teaching your dog that being isolated can happen and it isn’t that we want to ignore the dog, we just have something else to so. This provokes your dog to bark for a long period of time until he realizes that barking won’t make you spend your time with it. After a while they will get the idea that you have a specific amount of time and will spend time with it when you have the time.
Also take note that these two methods may not always work at all times so if these methods don’t work try to do some other things. Take this to account though, when you try to train your pets make sure that you have patience.
