Thank you - I needed to hear this!!!

Wow thanks for this video. I have a GSP puppy and it's driving us crazy. Thanks for sharing your journey, it feels so reassuring and positive!

I have a 6 month old female Presa and she definitely goes into manic/dominant mode when overtired. The first time it happened I thought she was showing signs of being aggressive but this was absolutely untrue. She was just tired and cranky and letting everyone know it! I learned to recognize the signs well before she gets out of control and either remove her from play if we are playing with other dogs, put her into her kennel for a nap if at home, or give her a Kong with a frozen treat to redirect and calm her.

Great series. You’ve set my mind more at ease. Just lost my 16 year old 5-dogs-in-one mutt and can’t imagine there’s a better girl out there for me. But. I truly believe I must find a new best friend sooner than later. Thank you!

Oh hey, its discount/young Russel Crowe on his own UA-cam channel!😅

Thank you for this 😊

Great video, I just got a puppy and puppy blues are very hard, whenever I get frustrated, I go on a walk with my older dog, it helps!!

People with kittens, you are allowed to feel this way too, I’m currently going through the horrible (in my opinion) phase of introduction of older cat to brand new baby, it’s hard, god it’s hard, and it sucks and I know you just can’t deal with the screaming anymore. Just remember something I was always taught when bringing a new animal home. Yes YOU are emotionally invested in this cat/kitten, but they are only living off of their instincts right now and ya they might act like they wanna bond and maybe they are in a way, but they really (especially in cases with babies) are just craving attention and don’t know how to get it without screaming or making a mess or whatever they’re doing that’s just pissing you off to no end. My Bee won’t let the new kitten out of her sights, door or no door, she’s almost always hissing. I felt like a horrible momma to my baby Bee yesterday and today, but wanna know what’s she’s doing right now, now that’s she’s calmed down a bit? Laying in her bed next to mine purring that she has mommas attention and presence. Cats, just like dogs, CRAVE attention, and no matter how you’re doing it, new first baby or introducing baby to other cats. All the cats what is attention, and it’s okay to give them all you got, you need that break, take it, let the cat stay in their room, shut that door, and take a break, go eat something, watch a (loud) movie or show. You got this! This cat momma with kitten blues has faith in you and herself to get though this god forsaken time!

Great video, I find a lot of clients get tired with managing their puppies after a few weeks. Often because they're not well set up in the first place. This is a really good video to help them understand where they're at and gives them some simple solutions. All puppy owners should watch this. I hope you get a lot more views than you have already.

My son died everybody said get a dog now I’m like do they fkn hate me!!!??? Now on top of grief I have this 😭 frustration and I’m losing my fkn mind! You don’t know how much this was needed 🤗

I feel like every type you described…thank you for your videos, thank you for helping me feel less alone

My pup was a NIGHTMARE on Wheels! Much like many other pups I imagine. At 6 months I heavily considered giving her up, so much so that I listed her online for free (no rehoming fee, just actually free) and signed her up for the next available no-kill shelter slot that was available. Well...I swear it was like she knew that this was it. She began to calm down! I received immediate interest for her within a day of listing her, but I held off. Then about a month later the shelter called and said they had a spot. 2 years later she is still with me. She's not easy, but nothing like she was, and I love her. I will never give her up!

I love your content. I’m going to adopt a dog. Not a puppy for sure.

This was more about what we are doing wrong and less about what to do...

I have a blue merle border collie but am under the impression I have the hyper of hypest dogs to have ever lived...and then she also broke a paw... it has been quite the rollercoaster but we are getting there. Your videos really give peace of mind. Thanks.

It's nice to hear this from an experienced dog owner. The progress isn't linear, some days its two step forward, one step back. Other days its one step forward, two steps back honestly. When i was doin research prior to getting my puppy, only ONE video i saw mentioned the stress/puppy blues. Not enough people talk about this.🖤

My 7 month old large golden doodle turns vicious, I’m so tied of being bitten, bleeding.

This is my therapy now, watching experienced dog owners tell me that this is just a phase and that I will have the Riku that I've always dreamed of. He may be a little monster right now, but once he grows up, we're gonna be inseparable. 🤍

My 10 month keeps digging holes I think he’s done !

And the money spend is 🤯

Loved this! Exactly how I'm feeling right now .. I'm on day 13 but I think I see the light at the end of the puppy tunnel .....I hope!! 😬

The Achilles heel took me so long to comprehend, that it got funny again.

Oh my four of those hit home for me I’m on week three 🫣 I think it’s been a few weeks since I’ve slept 😂 my cats have almost packed their bags and moved out they are not impressed with the new addition! I have felt so so crappy about having a puppy but refuse to tell my husband how I’ve been feeling as he never wanted a dog I nagged for a year, however today 🤞🏻 I think we turned a corner I no longer want to move out with my cats 😂 I think the puppy and I have bonded 🙌🏻

I have experienced all 5 with my current rescue at different stages of having him. Your previous video about "What was I thinking" saved me more than once. It was nice to know i wasn't the only feeling that way. Training was going really well until I had to spend a month out of state caring for my mom & now Atley has regressed in some areas. Would love advice on getting him back on track. Also, age appropriate training for a puppy under a year that is tall enough to realize he can get things off the counter. I wish I was joking. Thanks for all the work you do!

Great and very warm video! Keep it doing!

Thank you, everything you said resonated so much with me. Thanks again!

Thanks for this down to earth advice!

the intro was so accurate lol thank you

“Why would you get such a difficult dog when you know you’re prone to depression? You’re not good enough for this dog.” HUGE OOF. The crazy thing is, I don't even think my puppy is an especially difficult puppy. He's not an EASY puppy -- my last two were easy -- but he seems to have a very standard suite of terrible puppy qualities. But...I have depression. And not just that, I have pretty severe sleeping issues even at the best of times, waking up dozens of times every night for no reason whatsoever. Add in puppy sleep-dep and I'm living an ugly recipe for things going nowhere good. He's only a little over nine weeks old. When I think about how long it could be before I get to rest again, the days ahead seem to do that telescoping cinematic effect, stretching and spiraling out infinitely. I'm struggling to see how I'm going to make it through the next week; the next month may as well be a fairy tale. It's hard not to despair. It's hard to imagine a day when he fits. I know one day I'll look back and feel so very glad that I stuck things out...but right now, especially pre-full-vaccination, the days feel impossibly long, the nights impossibly short, and the work impossibly difficult.

this really encapsulates how I’m feeling right now… I wanted my puppy so badly for over a year. I really thought it through and made sure I wanted to commit, but now I’m so overwhelmed.

thank you

Omg you read my mind with all the thoughts I just want to cry but I’m going to watch your other video on how you survived

Incredible...you deserve so much more views! I am learning much more from you than the million subscriber channels!

Great video...I have no puppy blues but did feel overwhelmed at times and powerless at some points... I think the main reason for me is that all videos on youtube only show ridiculously fast progressions in training the basics and everything else.... dog fights the leash once and then like a miracle becomes in step with the owner almost instantly... this is just not true and makes people doubt themselves. I guess many channels do not want to talk about it as it might hurt their commercial business income they have via youtube so need to show quick success stories. Their advice is great...but they give false expectations in their video footage...even as they still might say that it is a lot of hard work and patience.

I lost my best friend of 14 years a couple of months ago. Your videos have been the most helpful as I prepare to look for a new buddy. Thank you

My god, did I ever need to hear what you had to share. Thank you! I don’t feel so alone. (24 hour, no sleep)

I'm having this problem with a young dog, about 3-4 years old. I'm just getting tired of it all. It's great when we just chill and sit on the couch but other than that, I'm tired of everything else. Researching about food, training, the way I act, feelings, emotions ... etc ... it's all stressful when you are taking care of a dog by yourself. This dog actually gave me a different perspective of if I can even handle having kids. I hate quitting but man, I might have to give her away. My work and life is too stressful/busy to try to keep my dog entertained. Sorry, just a rant. Thanks for the video and all the comments. Glad I'm not alone.

I keep putting mine in kennels for few days break ,its god send without him 😢

I didn’t think I’d find a video like that, thank you. I feel so guilty and overwhelmed… thank you again ❤

I don’t care if your not religious but as I’m sitting in my bathroom crying about wtHeck did I do getting this dog, i asked God to help me and I found your video and it sounded like you were talking straight to me. I already feel like I ruined her and I’ve only had her three weeks 🤦🏼‍♀️😭 I’ve paid so much money to enroll her in training just for me to break down and get frustrated I’m thinking of rehoming her. Now I just want to tell her I’m sorry and let her be a puppy for a day while I get my shit together. Thank you! Thank you so much.

Actually don’t have a dog but I’m dealing with this with a new cat, and these videos are helpful. Thanks.

I do this kind thing with my 15 y.o. Border Collie. She's a 3X agility champion and 2X obedience champion, so for her it's old hat, but easy on her body. I set up 5 cones in a rough circle in the park (luckily no one has taken them away!) and we run from one to the other in random patterns. We also do all her old obedience exercises that don't involve jumping. It's great fun and she loves to work! She's a BC, after all. Wish I could post a video.

My husky is also afraid of shadows at night...

Also would like to have a video on puppy biting! I no longer have a puppy (the land-shark I had has moved past that and is 7 now), but. . .honestly, I made all but one of these mistakes with her as a puppy and her first year and a half was an absolute nightmare. It was SO hard I did not enjoy it at all. I think the only reason we got through it is because I was too stubborn to give up. She was a horrific biter and NOTHING worked. Unfortunately, she kind of still is. It's shrunk down to being reactive about certain things, but she can and absolutely WILL still bite. I can't help but wonder if I'd handled her differently as a puppy if we couldn't have avoided this. But - little hard to say now. It is possible the reactivity was already there in just a wilder form. I also made the mistakes with exercise. -sigh- I've learned better since, but yeah. Don't get me wrong, she's a good dog now - still difficult - but over all, good. But I am continuing to try to learn how to do things better. Both for her, for any future dog I get - and who knows. Maybe someday I'll be a dog trainer. I'd like to be. Either way, more information, honing skills is a good thing for me, for my dog, for future dogs. I just hate that her puppyhood was such a disaster. :P And yes, a lot of it WAS mis-information, and on the good side, it made me scramble to find BETTER methods, and I have, but I still don't know the best ways to deal with things like. . puppy biting. (I know A better way, but is it the best? I don't know. I need more information!)

You are my favorite dog trainer!! Please keep making these videos!! ❤😊

The WTFWIT phase is nearly on Year 2 and I've had it with the soiling around my house. I'm losing my mind with my almost 2 year old dog. It's driving me nuts. I don't even enjoy instagram and tiktok videos about dogs anymore. I can't stand it

Thank you. Simple as that but I mean it so much.

I would absolutely love a video about puppy biting. My pup just turned 6 months old and the only thing I can do is quietly take her to her kennel for a break for both of us. Sometimes not so quietly if she is in the middle of the crazy zoomies and keeps flying at my two kids. When we catch her, we try to gently take her to her kennel for a time out for all of us.

Subbed! I just moved into a room of a house where the landlords foster dogs from the overcrowded shelter nearby. I grew attached to a 6 month old Staffy (looks to be more of a pitbull). He likes to bite when we play and chew the blankets sometimes my clothes that I’m wearing. Any tips on training that behavior? He also likes to stand over the older smaller dogs a lot which piss them off but he’s learning.

Oh dear the cat. The cat is saying what the heck is this.
