There are a variety of methods that can be used to discipline a pet. Examples include positive reinforcement, timeouts, removal of privileges, rewards, and negative reinforcement. Depending on the issue, training treats or a Kong® puzzle toy filled with treats can also be used as an effective form of discipline. Additionally, keeping sessions short and focusing on one behavior at a time has been proven beneficial in achieving success with pet discipline.

There are several methods that can be used to discipline a disobedient pet. First, it is important to provide positive reinforcement whenever your pet displays appropriate behavior. Positive reinforcement includes treats, praise and extra cuddles when your pet does something right.

Secondly, clear and consistent boundaries should be set with the use of verbal cues or short phrases such as "no" or "stop." This will help your pet recognize what behavior is expected of them and what behaviors are not allowed. 

Lastly, you may need to utilize more physical forms of punishment if other methods prove unsuccessful. Physical disciplinary methods should only be used when completely necessary and never in a humiliating or violent manner — for example, confinement in a small space or placing weight on the dog's front paws can be used to discourage certain undesirable behaviors without causing any harm to the animal.
