How to Train a Dog at Home (Beginner Level)

do you want to train your dog without having to an hiring an expert? Then you should stick with me

You don’t need fancy tools or a degree in animal psychology. What you need is consistency, patience, and these 3 simple techniques:

👏 Name Recognition
Call your dog’s name in a happy tone → Reward immediately when they look at you.
🔁 Repeat 3–5 times daily.

🪑 Basic Commands (Sit, Stay, Come)
Start with “Sit.” Hold a treat above the nose → Say “Sit” → When they do, reward.
Once “Sit” is solid, move to “Stay” and “Come.”

✅ Positive Reinforcement > Punishment
Reward good behavior within 2 seconds of action.
Ignore or redirect bad behavior. Never yell—it breaks trust.

💡 Bonus Tip: Keep sessions short! 5–10 minutes a day works wonders.

🐾 Training your dog should feel like bonding, not battling.

👇 Comment your dog’s name and I’ll suggest a command to start with!

Day 19: 3 Dog Myths That Could Be Hurting Your Pup

Let’s bust some dog myths today—because believing the wrong “facts” could be causing your dog stress, or even harm.

Myth #1: “Dogs eat grass when they’re sick.”
Truth: Not always. Dogs may chew grass out of boredom, instinct, or hunger. It’s not a reliable sign of illness and eating too much can actually cause vomiting.

Myth #2: “A wagging tail means a happy dog.”
Truth: Not necessarily. Tail wagging can signal excitement, nervousness, or even aggression. Always look at the full body language ears, posture, eyes before approaching.

Myth #3: “Puppies shouldn’t be trained until they’re older.”
Truth: The earlier the better! Puppies as young as 8 weeks can start learning basic commands and routines through positive reinforcement.

The Day My Dog Embarrassed Me in Public

I took my dog to the vet for a routine check-up. She was being her usual diva self — flipping her ears, wagging that tail like she owned the place.

But then…

She spotted a cat.

Not just any cat the cat who lives at the vet clinic.

My dog let out the most dramatic, high-pitched scream (yes, scream, not bark!) and leaped into my arms like a toddler running from a horror movie. 😭

The entire waiting room went silent… then burst into laughter.

And there I was trying to balance 40 pounds of fur, a handbag, and my dignity.

Moral of the story? Never underestimate a dog with a fear of felines.

5 Dog Training Hacks Every Owner Should Know

(Especially if you're raising a puppy that thinks your house is a racetrack 😂)

Here are five simple tricks that have saved my sanity (and a few chewed-up shoes):

🧀 Use "High-Value Treats"
Forget kibble. Use tiny bits of cheese, chicken, or liver for training. Your dog will suddenly think you're a genius.

⏰ 5-Minute Sessions Only
Dogs learn best in short bursts. Set a timer. Keep it fun. Quit while they're still excited.

🚪 Door Manners Hack
Before opening the door, ask your dog to “sit.” No sit = no go. It teaches patience and impulse control.

🗣️ Say Their Name—Once
Say their name → wait → then give a command. Repeating it 5x ("Bingo... BINGO! BINGO!!!") teaches them to ignore you.

🐾 End on a Win
Always finish training with a command they already know + lots of praise. Leave them feeling like a superstar.

Is Your Dog Showing These 5 Signs of Illness?

"When it comes to our dogs, every tail wag and bark matters, but sometimes, those signs we ignore could be red flags for something serious. Here are 5 signs your dog might be sick and what to do about it. 🐾"

Loss of Appetite 🍽️
If your dog’s food bowl is untouched, it could be more than just a picky day. A loss of appetite may indicate a health issue ranging from dental problems to something more serious. Always keep an eye on how much they're eating.

Lethargy or Excessive Sleeping 🛋️
We all know dogs love a good nap, but if your dog’s suddenly sleeping more than usual or seems unusually lethargic, it could point to an underlying condition like infection or pain.

Vomiting or Diarrhea 🤢
If your dog has frequent vomiting or diarrhea, it could be caused by something simple like a change in diet, or something more concerning like a virus. Always monitor the severity and contact your vet if it doesn’t improve.

Unexplained Weight Loss or Gain ⚖️
Changes in weight can indicate problems such as thyroid issues or even tumors. Weighing your dog regularly can help track any noticeable changes early.

Excessive Thirst or Urination 💧
A sudden increase in water intake or urination could be a symptom of diabetes or kidney problems. If you notice this, it’s worth getting checked out immediately.

Is your dog showing any of these signs? Share in the comments, or tag a fellow dog parent to help spread the word!
Always consult your vet if you’re concerned better safe than sorry!

10 Signs Your Dog is Trying to Tell You Something 🐾

We all know dogs have their own way of communicating, but did you know there are signs they might be trying to tell you something important?

Here are 10 signs to watch out for:
Pawing at you – It’s not always about attention. Sometimes they’re telling you they need something like a potty break or food.

Barking at nothing – Your dog may hear or smell something you can't. If it’s persistent, it might be a sign they’re anxious.

Whining or whimpering – Often a sign of discomfort, stress, or just wanting to be near you.

Staring at you intensely – This could mean your dog is trying to get your attention for a treat, walk, or just a cuddle.

Avoiding eye contact – Dogs sometimes do this when they’re stressed, feeling threatened, or are unwell.

Yawning when you're not tired – Your dog may be stressed or feeling uneasy about something happening around them.

Sniffing the air or the ground – It’s not just curiosity—they could be detecting something you can’t!

Licking their lips or chewing their paws – This can indicate anxiety, boredom, or even an allergy.

Tucking tail – This is a classic sign of fear, anxiety, or discomfort. Time to comfort your dog!

Rolling on their back – Not just for belly rubs! This could be a sign of submission, a greeting, or even a way to cool down.

TIP: If your dog does any of these things consistently, it’s worth investigating further. Your furry friend is communicating with you—they just don’t speak our language!
