Make Him Understand the Structure Of Your Family System

Dogs are social animals and they are also pack animals. They have this habit

of living in packs where they have a specific leader of their pack. When you

bring in home, then, you also need to make sure that you are providing him

with good understanding of your family system in which there should be one

head of your family. You can also make yourself as the master or leader of

your dog by controlling his activities. Food, sleep, playing and exercise are

the 4 basic activities of your dog and if you can control these then, your dog

will accept you as your leader.

Make Your Dog Kids Friendly

Kids are an important part of every family and most of the times they are the

ones who like dogs most. You need to make sure that your dog is kids friendly

because in many cases it is seen that dogs get jealous of the kids because they

do not want their master to pay attention to someone else. This behavior

should be corrected. You should encourage your dog’s good behavior like

sitting and you should also discourage bad behavior like barking or jumping.

Kids like to hug their dogs and you should train your dog to like hugs.
