How
To Train Pit Bull Bully Puppy / Adult
American Pit Bull Terriers are one of
the most feared dog breeds out there. Considered by many to be
inherently
aggressive toward humans and animals alike, the breed has been unfairly
targeted as killers. When properly raised and trained, Pit bull / Bully
puppies
can grow up to be loyal, loving companions.
Things you will need: Crate, toys, treats,
lead/leash, collar & ENERGY
Start
by fitting your Red Nose / Blue Nose Pitbull / Bully puppy
with
a collar as soon as you get him home. Pit
bull/ Bully puppies have large heads and wide, thick necks so be sure
to choose
a collar wide enough to avoid causing injury or discomfort. Your puppy
might
struggle against the collar at first, but praise her and give her a
treat when
he/she relaxes and ignores the collar.
Put
your puppy's
crate in a quiet place and allow him/her to become familiar with
it. Put
a soft blanket or dog bed and your puppy's favorite ball or toy
to
encourage him to go inside. Reward him for remaining calm and quiet
while in
his/her crate and increase the duration of time it spends inside. Your
puppy will
learn to associate his crate with a space of his own and will want to
spend
time in there once he is comfortable with it.
Set
your Pitbull puppy up on a regular feeding schedule. Pit bull puppies
are known
for their huge appetites. Monitoring how much and how
often your
Pit Bully pup eats will give you an idea of his/her habits.
Feeding your
puppy at the same time every day also will be a good indicator of when
he/she
will have to go outside to potty. Take
your APBT puppy out regularly and often to housebreak him/her. Always
take pup
to the same spot in your yard so they knows that is the potty area.
After every
meal and upon waking up is when your puppy will need to go the most. So
be
diligent in taking puppy out. Pit bulls are very intelligent and
will
quickly learn this routine.
Begin teaching your puppy simple commands
and then you can work up him/her up to more difficult ones. Sit command
is one
of the most basic and easiest for your Bully Pit Bull pup to learn.
Clip the
leash to his/her collar and get pups attention with a treat. Tell
pup to
sit, moving the treat backwards over your puppy's head. Pit
bulls/Bullys are
very intense and focus well on their favorite treat. Puppy should reach
for it
as you move your hand. Your APBT puppy should lower its rear end and
sit as it
tries to get the treat. Reward your pup immediately and praise
him/her
for properly performing the command. Repeat the process, reducing how
far you
move the treat as puppy sits on her own. Continue teaching your puppy
more complex commands as she masters the simple
ones. Sit, lay down, come, heel and stay are all very useful and will
help your
puppy fit in and become an obedient part of your household.
Take your Pit Bulldog puppy with you on
outings to socialize her with the outside world. Many pit bulls/bullys
have
never been properly socialized and their unfamiliarity with other dogs
and with
humans in general can be mistaken for viciousness. Frequent to a
variety
of places will help your puppy become comfortable with new people and
places
and will give her the chance to become a friendly ambassador for the
breed.
Tip#1
Your Pit Bull/Bully needs Rules, Boundaries and limitations. The sooner
you set rules, boundaries and limitations the sooner you get to enjoy
a healthy, happy & balanced Red Nose/ Blue Nose pitbull/bully.
We've learned that the Pitbull breed follow calm assertive
leaders.
"The Pack Leader" The mpther or the male embodies calm assertive
leadership. So be sure to remain calm when dealing with your Pitbull
bully
Puppy or adult.
Tip#2
Start
Early, Start when they are young !! I get many emails, Im's Pm's on
facebook
& myspace asking me when they should start setting rules,
boundaries and
limitations for their pitbull/bull puppy. My answer to them is "NOW".
Many people get a pitbull bully puppies and wait to teach them
the rules
until they are 6-12 months. In this time the puppy is running their own
program, teaching you the rules. Now some rehabilitation is required
because you
will have to take back the leader position. So start now, get your pit
bull
bully puppy on your program. When you have achieved this you will be a
proud
owner of a healthy, happy & balanced American Pit Bull Terrier APBT Bully
dog.
GOOD
LUCK & ENJOY YOUR AMERICAN PITBULL
TERRIER AKA AMERICAN BULLY
