Want to live a better lifestyle? Get a dog.

Surveys indicate that pet ownership helps reduce stress, lowers blood pressure and resists off feelings of aloneness and depression.

While nothing can top the love and companionship of a dog, there are some unpleasant behaviours that just would not do - from barking all night to wetting the floor to chewing on your shoes when you're not looking.

If your dog is presenting this type of behavior, it may be acting out due to boredom, suppressed aggression or because of lack of training. With proper lifestyle adjustments and enduring training, you'll be on your way to having a happy, good pet. The following tips will help your furry friend become more obedient:

* Spay or neuter. The Humane Society of the United States says that this common procedure can help your dog live longer, be healthier and have fewer behaviour problems.

* Help your pet relax. Just like people, dogs can get uneasy, disturbed and upset. That's why some veterinarians suggest giving your dog a calming product, such as Pluto Pet's Pet Calming Spray, to help relieve hyperactivity.

Made with natural ingredients, Pet Calming Spray acts quickly to relieve impatience, fearfulness, nervousness and aggression and helps antsy pets sleep through the night, according to the manufacturer.

* Have a physical exertion routine. Provide your canine fellow with regularly scheduled walks two times in a day. This will help your dog avoid tedium, which can lead to negative behaviour.

* Go to school. According to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelness to Animals, enrolling your dog in an respect class will instruct you how to master your dog's conduct both safely and humanely.

* Be diligent. Though instructing your furry friend to be more obedient may take determination on your part, it's worth it. After all, as man's best friend, your dog will appreciate bonding with you during the process.
