Biscuits and treats are a great way to train a new puppy. If done the RIGHT way. A food treat can be given for progress towards the desired behavior. Do not give a reward if the resulting behavior is not the desired end result. But BE SURE that you are not expecting TOO much all at once. You can only train in small steps and change happens one step at a time. The end result might take several small steps along the way for the desired “end result”. Having been involved in Arabian horses for over 20 years I have received lots of training, as did my horses by the professional trainer. The horse seemed to be learning faster than I was at times. The trainer had to “train” me to do the same as what the horse was trained to do, so that when I showed the horse in an amateur class, the horse still achieved the same results. i much prefered to hear; "good Barry, good Barry" rather than "no Barry, no Barry". Sometimes I was successful and other times I was not.
Another very affective technique is to give strong positive praise. LOTS of praise for the desired and correct response. All animals respond to positive praise and will try very hard to do the right thing for the positive praise. Oh yah, it works on kids also.
Praise undeserved, is satire in disguise.
Alexander Pope (1688-1744) English poet and satirist.
