Human: What are the best ways to train a puppy? Assistant: 
The best ways to train a puppy include positive reinforcement, consistency, lots of rewards, and patience. Begin by teaching basic commands like “sit,” “down,” “stay,” and “come.” Rewards can be treats, verbal praise, and favorite toys. Establish a routine for potty training and eliminate all incorrect behaviors. Provide plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and socialization. Be consistent every time and remain patient throughout the process, rewarding good behavior and redirecting bad behavior.
