When you have in your life a pet, it's advisable to make him act the way you like and train him to do not only different tricks, but also to behave in a certain way. You surely don't want your little boxer puppy to do in the house what he should do outside, to run away when you're walking him in the park or walk in front of you when you're on the street. In order to make of your little boxer a special presence and a great pet, you could consider training him to do whatever you like. It's not that hard to train a boxer, if you start doing this while he's a puppy, as this is the time when they learn things better and faster.

To succeed training a boxer puppy, you mustn't let yourself fooled by the cute and fluffy ball he is. Even if he becomes the center of everyone's attention, the puppy must be disciplined as soon as you get him. As the little boxer puppy is dependent and reliant on you to help him accommodate in the human's world and in your house, you must be careful when you guide and lead him, as this will determine his path in the world. So, if you want a little disciplined boxer puppy, make sure you do everything right.

First of all, try to shape not only his behavior, but also his character and temperament habits. For example, it's important to encourage him, but also to praise and reward him when you train him to come. The positive reinforcement will surely make your boxer puppy come when you ask him to, and so you will have control over him. When training him to do this, you should keep short sessions, but consistent ones and always try to have fun with the little ball of fur. Trust and mutual respect must be key ingredients, and old school methods, such as different types of punishment and harsh corrections should be avoided. This way, you'll make your boxer puppy love his training sessions and become eager to learn more.

Second of all, remember that your little boxer puppy is like a newborn baby. He's young and immature, and you have to be flexible, realistic, fair and most of all patient with him if you want to see results, as the boxer doesn't know what you want and what you're trying to teach him. The puppy will surely make mistakes from time to time, especially during the first sessions, but you have to understand him and most of all, don't punish him.

When you're training a boxer puppy, pay attention to the movements of his body. Dogs use many different parts of their tiny bodies to communicate, especially their eyes and their ears, which are particularly dynamic. These parts can give you clues concerning boxer's impulses and emotions.

Also, the way in which boxers incline their heads, move their legs, their torsos and wail their tails are methods of sending you important messages. If you notice any particular behavior of these parts while training your boxer puppy to come, then change your strategy and use other methods to teach him what you want. When it comes to interpreting noises and boxer barks, you should also pay attention. Dogs mean what they say, and even if their way of saying it might be different from one puppy to another, you should be able to understand his language no matter what. The more you understand the signals the boxer puppy gives you, the more your training will be successful and the two of you happy.
