How to Train Yorkies- 3 Tips on Training Yorkies
20 Apr 2011
Training Yorkies can be a bit frustrating. Those cute little dogs can be a hassle. So, what I’m going to do is share with you some tips on how to train Yorkies. That way, your dog will behave and listen to whatever you say.
The tips to training Yorkies are:
1. The first tip on training your Yorkie is to minimize the distractions. Train your Yorkshire Terrier when there aren’t any other animals or people around. Also, focus on one command at a time. Make sure your commands are consistent and clear.
You should also use an authoritative tone when given them a command. This lets your Yorkie know that you’re in charge.
2. Using treats is another way to train your Yorkie. When your dog performs a command, be sure to reward them with a treat. Yorkshire Terriers love to eat. So, they will be eager to do a “trick” or follow a command just to get a treat from you.
3. Praising your Yorkie is another great way to train them. Continue to praise them. They want a lot of attention from you. Yorkshire Terriers hate to be ignored. So, be sure to praise your dog whenever they perform a command.
4. The next tip is to train your Yorkshire Terrier yourself. Don’t rely on anyone else. Yorkies are high energy dogs that require you to be consistent when training them. If you aren’t consistent, they will take advantage of you, which will cause problems for you later on.
These are a few tips on how to train Yorkies. When training your dog, be sure to do it yourself. Remember, consistency is the key. Use these tips and soon you will have the best behaving and trained Yorkie in no time.

In this article I would like to discuss the basics of German Shepherd training, specifically, dealing with aggression in this particular breed. Since the German Shepherd is an athletic dog often times used in protection roles, many feel that they are prone to aggression. This is simply not true.
Let’s get to the basics of training an aggressive German Shepherd:
• Canines need to understand that you are the alpha dog in the house. German Shepherds are no different. From day 1 of owning them, your dog should view you as alpha. If you are well into your relationship with your German Shepherd and have not established the alpha role, you may experience some resistance.
• Humiliation, abuse, and corporal punishment have no place when dealing with aggressive behavior. A mild shake by the scruff of the neck to emphasize the rules is typically enough.
• Reward him for behaving calmly with food treats, praise, and petting.
• It is essential to reward calm and good behavior during training. This is positive reinforcement for the Shepherd, and positive reinforcement breeds more good behavior.
• All members of your family should understand the idea of “alpha dog”; and dog psychology and socialization. When you’re not around, the last thing you want is for your training to be deconstructed.
• Guarding breeds such as German Shepherds need special emphasis on socialization. Make sure he has plenty of interactive with humans and other dogs throughout his life.
• Shepherds, as with all dogs, need exercise. Lack of exercise is a major cause of aggressive behavior in canines, German Shepherds are no different. Take your Shepherd jogging, running alongside you as you bike or rollerblade, hiking, etc. Even regular games of fetch will benefit. Consistent exercise is key, strive for at least a 45 minute walk per day.
• Take your Shepherd to typical obedience classes and get them to at least an intermediate level. His mind should be stimulated and occupied.
Being the owner, your dog is your responsibility, and training your dog falls on your shoulders. Training, however, shouldn’t be looked at as a burden. German Shepherd training is a mutually beneficial process, and can lead to years of joy with your new best friend.

Once your dog is used with the crate, you should lock the dog inside. You can go away for a bit and watch from a distance to see how he calms down. If you see him protest, keep him inside until he calms down. Let him go only when he does. If you do this for a few days, he should be learning to enter and exit the crate on his own.
Some people don’t like crate training because they think that it resembles solitary confinement. But, if you read some of the benefits listed here, and those that are not mentioned and you might find on your own, you can easily reach the same conclusion I did, that a crate is good both for the dog and his owner.
If you train dogs or puppies enough, you can make them love it, and not consider it a place that they want to avoid. If they’re not trained, they can feel lonely and unsafe in this environment.
Crate or den training is done because dogs need a feeling of security, a place of nesting, where there aren’t any distractions. Such a home can be a den. If the right techniques are used and it’s introduced properly, crate training can be OK for dogs, and they will not consider it a punishment.
1. Benefits of using a crate.
a) When you want to be sure that your dog isn’t running around on his own, and you need him to stay put, you can use a crate to control him.
b) If they’re in a place where they feel vulnerable, a crate will provide them a safe haven.
c) A crate can be a place to rest and relax for the dog, where he can’t be distracted or bothered.
d) You can use the crate to make sure that dogs with behavioral problems are kept under control.
e) If your dog is untrained, you can keep him under control, so he doesn’t bite your guests or cause any accidents.
f) If your dog has separation anxiety a crate can help him.
g) If you need to take the dog out, a crate can keep him secure.
h) His confidence is boosted because he is more secure.
i) Can help the dog with their training, since it can be a direction for their activities.
2. Size of the crate.
You should choose a crate that allows the dog to stand up on all fours, where he can lie down or turn around without the walls being in the way. If you also want to use the crate to travel with your dog, you should pick a larger one.
If training is the only reason why you use the crate, you should still pick one that follows the rules I talked about before. Using a big crate will allow the dog to do things that are unwanted in an area of the crate where they don’t have to sit.
3. How to introduce the crate to the dog.
Introducing the crate to the dog should be done when you’re comfortable with the idea. First, choose a crate that is appropriate. Second, put it in the house, in a place where the dog can notice it. In the beginning, remove the door from the crate, so the dog can explore it for a week or so.
If he doesn’t seem interested in the crate, you can leave some food inside, to get his attention. After a few days pass, you can try giving him food inside. This way, he will learn that the crate is his and he can enter it safely.
