There are many different ways to train your dog. You can go for obedience classes, leash training, collar training, or simple home training techniques. There are a lot of options and plenty of books and DVDs available to help you out in selecting the best method for training your dog.

Which is the best dog training method? Is there one that stand out from the rest or one that is the most effective? That answer is largely subjective and depends entirely on you and your dog and your own individual personalities.

When looking for the best dog training method for you and your pet, take into consideration how much time you have to devote to training, how patient you are, and how smart your dog seems to be. All of these will make an impact on your choice of training techniques.

For instance, if you have the time in your schedule to go for obedience class, this method is usually quicker and easier. If you don't have that kind of free time, another method may work better for you.

Leash training may be best for you if you take your dog out on lots of walks and have this worked into your schedule already. Those with a lot of free time but no money for classes may opt to simply train their dogs themselves at home. It is all about your preference and style.

Another factor to consider is your dog's preferences. Some dogs are smarter than others, and will respond better to the controlled environment of an obedience class rather than simple one on one home training. These dogs may also respond well to leash or collar training, though some people claim the latter is cruel.

I believe that you do not want your dog to be hurt. Just find the best dog training method for you both, so that you can enjoy a happy co-existence together in the same home. Find the right way to train your dog, and you will find you enjoy each others' company a lot more and become close companions.
