Physical. When you yell a dog commands, make sure your voice is stern and you make eye contact, then say your command and point your finger at what you want it to do, such as to tell it to go to bed. You make eye contact say "bed" in a stern voice then point at the bed and watch it to its bed. Do that for 2-4 days until you say bed without the voice and finger make sure you reward it for doing the command.

What did lady rainicorn say?
I.S.383 Folaremi Akinyemi LA6 - 605 12-13-12 "For Dogs, Actions Count" For dogs the way humans communicate with them is important. There are many ways to communicate with your dog. The 3 main ways are verbally, visually, and physically. Dogs can understand and learn verbal cues. Dogs have an inability to respond to commands that sound similar to others. In the text, once dogs were answering correctly, the researchers changed the command words slightly. In place of "sit' they used "chit". Dogs respond better to visual cues. Dogs sometimes pick up signals we don't send. The text also states that when your voice tells it one thing and your body tells it another, it's not being stubborn it may be confused. Dogs prefer nonphysical interaction. The text says dogs responded better when head and finger pointing were in agreement. Kissing or picking up the dogs didn't work. Patting and clapping worked less than 50%. Dogs aren't being stupid they are confused. Take Sophia Yin's advice
What are the mushing terms for sled dogs?
Verbal commands let the handler tell the dogs where to go. Unlike horses who draw vehicles, sled dogs have no reins. Without verbal commands, the dogs wouldn't know where to go and the team would just run around chasing rabbits and pulling the helpless handler with them. "Hike" means go faster. "Gee" means go right. "Gee Gee" means hard right. "Haw" means go left. "Haw Haw" means hard left. "On by" means pass the other team. "Whoa" means slow down.
