Question by Beautiful_Letdown: At what age should you begin with basic command training for your puppy?
I have a 6 week old Swiss mountain puppy. Right now we are working on housebreaking and Chewing on toys and not Mommy’s heels lol. He is doing great and is really a smart puppy.
At what age should I start him on Basic commands such as sit, stay, lay, and leash training. I’ve never had a puppy this small and dont know when its the right time to start teaching him things that he is ready for but I would like a smart adult dog so I want to do it right.
Any help is appreciated, thanks!
