Basic obedience: Training basic obedience is one of the most important basics. Exercises such as "Sit", "Down", "Stay", "Here" and "Heel" can help your dog to listen to you and respect you.
Leash Walking: Leash walking is an important skill for dogs to learn. This is where the dog learns to walk beside you on a loose leash without pulling or drifting off. Start with short exercises in quiet environments and gradually work your way up to more difficult situations such as the city or busy parks.
Use positive reinforcement: positive reinforcement is key to successfully training your dog. Reward your dog for positive behavior by giving him treats or praise. Avoid punishing or physically harming your dog.
Be consistent: To be successful, you must be consistent and patient. Avoid changing the rules or sending mixed signals to your dog. If you keep up the training and remain consistent, your dog will progress more quickly.
Make the training interactive: make sure the training is interactive by involving your dog in the exercises and encouraging him to interact with you. This can help make training more interesting and fun for your dog.
Practice regularly: Regular training is the key to long-term success.
