Beagle Puppy Training
So you just got your new beagle and you need to do beagle puppy training.
This breed has been known to learn well with regards to hunting.
Originally bred for hunting, the beagle has been a mainstay in this activity within England for hundreds of years.
Since the beagle has been bred to have the ability to smell very well, it needs obedience training early to keep it from resorting to following a scented track and ignoring all else.
Being bred as a combination of other hound dogs such as the Harrier, this dog does its best work when hunting rabbits, pheasant and/or quail.
The beagle breed holds high intelligence while also being highly eager to please its master.
Therefore, it tends to be a pleasure to work with.
However, since they have a formidable sense of smell, they do often have a tendency to follow their nose and ignore all other things.
Keeping your new beagle puppy focused will be paramount for successful training.
After proper training, your beagle should have less of a problem wanting to follow its nose all the time.

Guidelines will definitely help when it comes to training your beagle puppy quickly and effectively.
If your whole household interacts with this puppy, then they all will have to know and act within your set guidelines.
While following the guidelines, everyone needs to remember that the puppy will learn each waking minute of his life so make sure these guidelines are applied consistently.
Being completely consistent while training and interacting with your puppy using various audible or visual cues will help him learn more quickly.
For example, if you are in the midst of training your beagle the command of "sit", then make sure you use that word by itself every time.
Do not use that word by itself one time and then another use the phrase "sit down" expecting your puppy to understand.
Even if your puppy gives the correct response by sitting, you do not want him to be conditioned to respond to that phrase since down the line it may be more confusing than it needs to be.
Never use harsh actions like punishment in order for your beagle to respond like you want him to.
Always attempt to train your puppy using rewards and/or praise.
Doing this will help your puppy enjoy your training sessions.
Punishment as a means of training is simply not very effective.

Timing will always be important when teaching your beagle puppy.
