When is the best time to train your dog?
The simplest way to train your dog is with rewards!
So, when is the best time to train your dog?
With 'best time' in mind, if the reward is to be an edible treat, then there is really only one time to train - and that is before a meal when your pet is at its hungriest!
If, on the other hand, you only train with non-edible rewards... then you must choose a time when your dog will be at his or her most responsive to whatever form of treat you are using.
Should you have been expecting a different type of answer to this question - a type which says at what age or stage in development should you start training - then the answer is even simpler... NOW is the answer.
