All About Training Australian-Terrier Dogs and Puppies

Training your Australian Terrier is the duty of all responsible Aussie owners. This breed is naturally inquisitive and spunky so his behavior needs to be properly molded to avoid a tyrannical dog. Paradoxically, Australian Terriers like to both please their owners and to feel in charge. So, the goal of training your Australian Terrier should be to make obedience paramount in his mind.
Although the Australian Terrier is intelligent and highly trainable, he can be quickly bored and will disengage. Such disengagement means that the Australian Terrier is deciding for himself when he will attend to his owner’s commands and this can lead to generalized disobedience. To avoid this, the savvy Australian Terrier owner will have a training plan, plenty of rewards and a strong (possibly liquid) constitution.
Finally, keep the training sessions short and interesting. Avoid having your Australian Terrier constantly repeat a learned behavior. This is a sure-fire way for your Aussie to lose interest. Instead, have several basic commands to begin and reward heartily when proper behavior becomes habituated. Resist the urge to review at length the previous session as your Australian Terrier will be bored before the new commands begin.
