2. The first meeting with the new pet is very important. If you behave too tenderly or, on the contrary, cold and roughly if show indecision and will allow a dog to notice your uncertainty, it will be difficult to achieve good contact with an animal. The dog will or be afraid of you, or will decide that it is optional to obey.
3. If you know who possessed a dog for you, try to communicate to the former owner. Learn more about the new pet: what delicacies he prefers as spent time on walks with it.
