Play training remains important right through the training and trialing stages. Puppies are distracted easily and can try your patience, but you must remember the time you spend training your puppy now will pay off when you have an adult dog.    The aim is to help you give your puppy, adolecent and elderly dogs a better, more enjoyable dog life.  Just get your pup familiar and comfortable wearing a collar. A simple buckle collar is fine for this purpose.  If  your puppy is rolling around or trying to scratch the collar off, don't take it off him at this time.    Dog Obedience Training
