When John bought his black lab puppy he didn’t think he’d have to spend much time looking after it or training it. He thought he could just watch it grow and play with it as and when he pleased. This turned out to be so wrong.
Looking after his dog was going to take much more time and that in fact, became all consuming
He discovered you have to start training when they are pups so you can take away all bad habits like biting, chewing and barking. The best time to potty train them was now because they will get into the habit of going outside early. During Labrador training session he noticed they like to run, play and be active.
Training took a lot of treats plus liberal amounts of carpet cleaner because he had to be will rewarded when he did something good. The carpet cleaner was because he was a slow learner but in time he got the hang of it and then it never happened again.
After about a month of training John could make him sit by snapping his fingers. He was potty trained to wait by the door to the bathroom. Barking doesn’t exist now unless someone is trying to break in.
