ASKDQ: TIMING OF TRAINING SESSIONS

Q: What’s the ideal length of a training session at home?

A: Effectively training your dog at home involves short and frequent sessions to maintain interest. It is vital to keep your dog engaged and eager to learn. Dogs have a limited attention span, so avoid long sessions where they may become disinterested or even frustrated.

Instead, we would advise aiming for several three-minute training sessions throughout the day. You don’t need to get your stopwatch out and become too regimented about this, but three minutes definitely serves as a reasonable guide.
