5 Important Commands That Every Doggy Should Learn

Teaching your dog commands may seem like something fun to do with your pooch, but teaching Fido commands can prove useful as well. Besides teaching him tricks like him balancing something on his nose, he should learn important commands that are life saving.

For safety purposes teaching Fido to come is essential during an emergency situation. For example, if your pooch begins to chase after a dog being walked and you tell him to “Come,” this command can stop him from potentially crossing the street and putting himself in danger.

Other commands such as “Sit” and “Down” are useful when you're waiting at a vet's office or would like your dog to relax when he's around a lot of people.

As you can see, commands are very useful not only for emergencies but social situations as well. Learn about more commands your doggy should know after the break.
