1. **Sit**: This is one of the first commands you should teach. Start by holding a treat above your boxer's head and moving it back over their head. As they look up, their bottom will naturally lower. When they sit, reward them with the treat and praise.
2. **Stay**: After your boxer has mastered 'sit', you can teach 'stay'. Start with your boxer in a sitting position, hold your hand out in front of you like a stop sign, and say 'stay'. Take a step back and if they stay, reward them. Gradually increase the distance and duration.
3. **Come**: This command is crucial for your boxer's safety. Use a long leash initially, and when you call your boxer’s name followed by 'come', gently pull on the leash if they don’t respond right away. Reward them when they come to you.
4. **Down**: To teach 'down', start with your boxer in a sitting position. Hold a treat in your hand and lower it to the ground. When your boxer follows the treat and lays down, reward them.
5. **Leave it**: This command is important for preventing your boxer from picking up something harmful. Start with a treat in your hand, close your fist around it, and say 'leave it'. When they stop trying to get the treat, reward them with another treat from your other hand.
6. **Heel**: Teaching your boxer to walk beside you without pulling on the leash is essential for pleasant walks. Use treats to encourage them to walk next to you, rewarding them for staying close.
7. **Shake**: This is a fun trick that can be taught by gently lifting one of your boxer's paws while saying 'shake'. Reward them when they lift their paw on their own.
Remember to keep training sessions short and fun, using positive reinforcement techniques. Boxers are intelligent and eager to please, so with patience and consistency, they will learn these commands quickly!
