Training my New Dog

         During christmas one of my presents was a lab retriever puppy that i had to learn how to train to be a hunting dog. But currently this goal is becoming harder and harder for me to be able to achieve with all my homework and after school activities. So what i have began doing is reading a book on how to train labs to be hunting dogs so that when i do get to train her it is not waisted time. 

         So one of the first steps in trying to train a puppy is by getting them to sit, stay, heal, and come those are the four needed commands in the dogs life in the early stages of training. Next you teach them how to use there sense of smell by giving them objects that have a certain smell and hiding them until they can smell the item out and find it. So That is where I am currently with training my dog and I hope it goes well.
