The Joys Of Having Staffy Puppies
- 18/06/2013
Bringing your new staffy puppies home can be a real joy for a new family. If you have never had a dog of your own, the Staffordshire bull terrier just may be dog for you. They are born entertainers and very humorous to watch. Their keen intelligence and love of people make them ideal companions. Staffys are loyal to a fault, courageous, and very loyal dogs. They particularly love children and will protect them at all times. Because of their adoration of children, they are well known as nurse maids in the UK.
Staffies are smaller sized dogs with muscular builds. Their coats are smooth and short, and they are very easy to groom because they require fewer baths. Their coats are generally self-cleaning. Your staffy pup will require a lot of exercise, training, and a regular schedule. You will want to take your dog for walks every day, and set a regular schedule for each day's activities. This particular breed of dog is highly intelligent, and fairly easy to train.
Training for your puppy should ideally begin the moment you bring them home. Begin with basic commands like sit and stay. You will want to establish your place in the pack by maintaining discipline in the form of positive reinforcement training, and in keeping your new puppy safe. Be sure to use a combination of dog training techniques that vary between treats and praise. Positive reinforcement training is a must for any well behaved dog. With the proper patience and consistent training, you will find that your staffy puppy will catch on quickly and respond well to you.
It is important to socialize your new pup with other people and animals so that they will develop confidence. Dogs that are not properly socialized tend to develop fearful aggressive behaviors. Keep in mind that you are responsible for your new pet's well being. You will want to do your homework and create a regular schedule for feeding, crate training, basic dog training, leash training, and housebreaking.
Staffy puppies are adorable dogs, and fairly simple to train. They are eager to please, and because of their high intelligence, catch on to commands quickly with consistent training. Taking time out of every day to spend with your staffy pup is critical to his health and well being. He will do well with the right training and encouragement, and you will be rewarded with a wonderfully faithful companion.
