My pomeranian is very bright sometimes this can be a problem lol. He is 6 months and knows most of the basic commands I have taught him myself such as... sit, paw, other paw, lie down, roll over, come, stay, spin, up. The only problem is he doesn't always come when called if he would rather do something else and when he has something he shouldn't he will run away from you.
Just make sure you don't over stress your new dog. Training is a wonderful way to bond with your dog, but if you stress him out before he's gotten used to his new home (and you), he might put up more resistance to obedience training.
im trying thanks for the advice. i can get him to sit most of the time when i bend down and have a treat but he knows if i dont have a treat not to sit haha hes sneaky.
A lot of people have this problem, but the best way to avoid this, is to have a treat, show your dog, make him sit, give him the treat. Then make him repeat this a few times, and then do it once without the treat, praise him with pets and a "good boy!" After that get him to stand again, then sit, and give him a treat. Eventually wean him off so that he does the trick without the need of a treat. Most dogs aim to please their owners. So as long as there's something positive involved, he'll do it.
First thing's first, get your pom into an enclosed enviroment where there's no distractions, get your pom's treat of choice, and practice getting your dog's attention, when it makes eye contact, praise the dog and reward it. - Remember never to practice training when you're feeling frustrated with your dog. If you're positive, your dog will feed off of that. Good luck!
