Training your dog to high jump is not as hard as you may think that it is. After all, dogs love to jump around and have fun; and by doing the high jump they will certainly be having fun!
Dogs are smart, but they don't naturally know what you want them to do, just because you tell them to do something. They're kind of like children, they just want what they want without regard to whether it is right and wrong. If you really want a well-trained dog, then you've got to train them to become your perfect canine companion. Simply telling them to do something isn't sufficient. Commands and words sometimes may sometimes work, but if you truly want to see some amazing results then you should consider clicker training.
Now you have brought your Teacup Puppy home, it is time for Potty Training. Some food for thought, the sign to look for when your Teacup Puggle has to go is, it will start sniffing around the floor if it has to urinate to go and will start sniffing and usually start walking around in circles if it has to have a bowel movement. The more you pay attention to this behavior the shorter the training process will be. Take your teacup puggle outside immediately or to the newspaper if you are indoor training your puppy.
What is heeling? Heeling is not the same as going for a walk. Heeling is an dog obedience exercise in which the dog stays close beside you, paying attention only to you and where you are going. As your puppy grows up, heeling will become the safe way for you to walk your dog through crowds and across streets, ignoring all normal or unusual distractions. It is the easiest lesson to begin with because you'll be taking your new puppy outside on leash to eliminate and you can practice three times on each trip - on your way out, after he relieves himself, and coming back inside.
Dogs, especially younger dogs, need something to do. If you don't provide it, they'll find it. Chewing shoes and digging in the garbage are fun when there's nothing else to do. Everyone knows that! Often, taking your dog outside for a run or a rousing game of frisbee will burn up that excess energy and solve your dog obedience issues, but what if you can't get outside? What if it's too darn cold and icy out there? You don't need to break a leg! For simple and enjoyable exercise inside the house, teach your dog to jump! I have a set of standards made from PVC pipe that can be taken apart for storage. But you don't even need that.
