1. **Sit**: This is one of the first commands you should teach your puppy. To do this, hold a treat above your puppy's nose and slowly move it back over their head. As their head goes up, their bottom will naturally lower to the ground. Once they sit, reward them with the treat and praise.
2. **Stay**: Once your puppy has mastered 'sit', you can move on to 'stay'. With your puppy in a sitting position, hold your hand out in front of you like a stop sign and say 'stay'. Take a step back. If they stay in place, reward them. Gradually increase the distance you move away.
3. **Come**: This command is crucial for your puppy's safety. Start by putting your puppy on a leash. Say 'come' while gently pulling on the leash towards you. When they reach you, reward them with a treat. Practice this in a safe, enclosed area before moving to more distracting environments.
4. **Down**: Teaching 'down' can be useful for calming your puppy. With your puppy in a sitting position, hold a treat in your hand and lower it to the ground. Your puppy will likely follow the treat down. Once they are lying down, reward them.
5. **Leave It**: This command is important for preventing your puppy from picking up something harmful. Show your puppy a treat in your hand, close your fist, and say 'leave it'. When they stop trying to get the treat, reward them with a different treat.
6. **Heel**: Teaching your puppy to walk nicely on a leash is essential. Start walking with your puppy on a leash, and if they pull, stop walking. Wait for them to come back to your side before continuing. Reward them for walking beside you.
Remember to keep training sessions short (5-10 minutes) and positive. Use plenty of treats and praise, and be patient. Consistency is key, and over time, your puppy will learn these commands and more! Happy training!
