When we choose pet dogs, many people are attracted by teacup dogs. For example, the teacup Teddy dog; many are captivated at first sight by its obedient and cute personality, beautiful appearance, and intelligent and brave traits. Indeed, the teacup Teddy dog is considered a relatively high-class pet dog. Its size is petite. So, is it naughty? How should we train it?

1. The best age to start training a dog is between six months and one year. Because before one year old, the dog's intelligence is not fully developed, and its self-awareness is still vague, making it easy to train. After one year old, it has already picked up some bad habits and temper from the outside world, which will make upcoming training more difficult. If your dog at home is not yet one year old, training by beating or scolding will be ineffective. At this time, the dog is just like a baby.

2. The methods of training dogs are generally similar, mainly requiring clear and timely rewards and punishments. You must let the dog clearly understand what is right and what is wrong. When training, your voice and gestures are very important. Keep the volume moderate and the gestures clear. When rewarding your dog, you can first praise verbally, then show physical affection, like petting the head or chin, and then give treats. When the dog makes a mistake, reprimand immediately with a louder voice than usual. Make sure the dog realizes instantly that it is not allowed.

3. A well-trained dog will not recklessly eat things offered by strangers. Training your dog at home in advance can prevent it from damaging others' property and from accidentally ingesting something harmful to its health.

Specific training method for refusing food:

① In the yard or outdoor open space at home, put a leash on your dog, choose a person the dog rarely sees, let them naturally approach the dog, and offer the dog its favorite food.

② If you notice the dog desires to eat the food, the owner must immediately tighten the leash and lightly tap the dog’s mouth as punishment, while issuing a stern "No" command.

③ After some time, have the stranger offer food again. If the dog still wants to eat, the punishment should be increased.
