Retraining Your Older Dog
Most dogs no matter their intended purpose or eventual advanced training, live with people so they will need to be trained no matter thier age. Even the older dog will need to have his manners refreshed and whilst not as easy as a younger dog to train, patiennce and persistance will win.
Again like training a puppy it is the positive reward principle that is important to remember, reward positive behavior and correct or ignore negative behavior. It is really important for your dog to know it boundaries of what is acceptable behaviour and what is not, and this should be reinforced often.
There are five basic behviors that must be trained:
Sit
Stay
Come
Down and
Heel
