I watch his show every saturday and bought the book ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxGQVgV21bQ7B9b9duQ1ByImyT9xHbjOKq because i like his method. He's very talktative in the book about his dog training experiences with several different breeds over the years. When he does get to the training chapters, you need to read more slowly, take mental or written notes and try to apply his advice to your pet. That's where i'm at now. Another review is in order aftet i've trained my blue mountain shepherd with brandon mcmillan's method.
I'm getting a new puppy tomorrow, a Goldador. Me too taking notes, Anyway my biggest target is potty training and keep him to stay settle downed until i find the time for him.
The random reward system works on dogs the same way it does on people, rats, etc. A study done with rats showed that when they were given a feeder bar that when tapped, would produce food every time, the rats would tap and eat until they were full. When the bar released food only on random presses, the rats would keep tapping until it was clear that no more food would come out. This behavior translates directly into human gambling. Casinos are designed around this concept. The random, tiny win is enough to keep most people playing until they're out of money.
5 years old, but I wanted to add: the draw of intermittent (positive) reinforcement also applies to even subtle things like phone addiction, social media addiction, and app functionality. You chase the dopamine hit from random "likes," notifications, and etc. Doesn't have to happen each time you check (social media, phone, app) - you just have to get that reward every so often...
As a new owner of a 1.5 year old pit bull/boxer mix, i LOVE that you used one in a video like this! As a rescue dog, I immediately wanted to get a prong collar to begin her training, but seeing YOU train her with basic skills that she already understands and getting quick results has completely changed my mind. Thank you!
Great job, Zak. I've had my rescue Pittie for 26 days, now... and he's getting better. Listens real well in house. Has me on "ignore" outside, but we're working on it.
Zak you never fail me!!!! So Jaxson naturally “settles” but he just recently started this begging stuff!!! So I need to connect a command to his “settling” stage and use it when we are eating. The only thing we will need to work on with settling is not following me when I move from room to room lol THANK YOU!!!!!
A "place" que may work for you if you would like them to settle in a specific place such as a bed or open crate but you probably figured this out in the two years since you wrote this comment. lol.
This video helped me really understand what it meant to capture calmness. I heard it mentioned quite a few times, but I never really understood/got the concept until now.
I just got my mature rescue dog today. He has come from a very bad background. Whilst he has some of the basics I was struggling to figure out whether I'd be able to actually help him or if he'd be too much. I have to say that after watching 1 of Zak's videos I have managed to my dog to settle. So whilst he's snoring beside me Ive been bing watching all of the other videos. This one in particular is going to be one of the most important ones for us. THANK YOU so much
u are the real reason i got a puppy, i showed ur vids on tv to my parents and they wasnt aggred with my opinon to get a pitbull puppy but when i told them that pitbull will be smarter than me doing this training every day hahahhaha now i see every day my mom teaching my puppy to stay to sit and other things . THANK U❤ and sorry for my english haha
Zak, I have seen this one before. But Jacob's progress always brings tears to my eyes. Thank you for working so diligently with him. I hope to convince my clients to have this amount of patience with their dogs as well.
I was just about to search for a video for ideas on correcting my pups behaviour around food like this and got the e-mail in my inbox. perfect coincident.
thank you I really enjoyed your video I'm tired of yelling to my dog to not beg and this has made me understand that the mind of a dog it's so much more but so easy to get. great video
I’ve got a new puppy and was watching a lot of your videos before hand. My pup is good at sitting, doing down, and walking on leash. Now I need to get him to settle. I would recommend Pupford for everyone here too.
OMG THANKS, lol I trained with my dog for a bit and he’s way better now He used to bark, whimper try to grab food off the table, and etc while we were eating. Not to mention, he’d do ANYTHING for our food. This really helped. Thanks! :)
Thank you for using Jacob in these videos! I have a pittie at home and they seem to be the same size, age, and temperament. If Jacob can settle, so can my Cash!
I really needed this!! My puppy gets so excited about everything about leashes about food even when we just let her come inside after like 10 minutes of being out its cute but it is time to stop because she is getting bigger and she loves to jump and I really think that might be a bit of a problem in the future so thanks love the videos!
Hii Zak, I'm from Egypt, I really need to thank you for your videos as I have learned and trained my dog through these useful videos, you made me understand how I can communicate with my dog, really appreciated and you are making it easy, thank you again, hope you're fine.
Heard about the video from your second book, and I'm very happy I stopped by to see it! Man, what a high-energy guy - on the scale from 1 to 3 he's about a 3.8!
Zak George I actually use a bit different teaching with regards to stop begging. I use the keywords No Dont be Rude at first and as soon as my dog looks away I give her the positive Marker I use. Basically doing the exact opposite of what you want to do for training for other things. I dont know if you use negative markers or not but i do and that is why the word No is in front of the command of Dont Be Rude. But as soon as they stop the undesired action its important to give that positive marker. The dog will look back at you again with the use of the positive marker but that is fine as soon as they look away again give that positive marker again and repeat till dog loses interest and do this each time at meal time. This teaches the dog to ignore people while eating. And when I use the negative marker its in a positive calm soothing voice. The positive marker i use that same voice as well. Dont wanna create any more excitement at your meal time. Make your meal time boring as hell for a dog despite smells. Eventually i can just say Dont Be Rude in a whisper and they will go do something else while we eat that is if they beg at all after doing this. But as soon as im done eating they get rewarded with maybe treats but definitely lots of good attention like a good game of tug or fetch. That is very very very very important to make sure to give your dog attention after you have eatin peacefully. Plus its good to get a bit of exercise after you eat anyways so this is also a major health benefit for the human. I never feed from the plate im eating from even left over scraps. Left over scraps get placed in her food bowl or used for training treats after she has let me ate without being bothered. This has worked like a dream on all the dogs i have tried this on so far. I have done this with about 20 dogs so far and all of them stopped begging at meal time within a week. Most stopped begging at meal time within 3 days. Whats funny my current dog used to be a super beggar. She cried barked anything to try to get some food even tried to steal from my plate a couple times. Now i can leave her alone in a room with my plate of food and she wont touch it. And most of the time when i am eating she will go eat her own food or go laydown on her bed. But as soon as she hears me put my plate aside she perks up and comes sees me for her playtime.
After watching this video I got my dog to capture Settle eventually. I would say settle whenever he was calm or about to fall asleep. I did this at random times for months (if I remembered). Then one day I used it as a command and it worked ! I was in awe and shock. Greatest achievement thus far. Thanks for the video!
Definitely going to try this with my dog. She isn't a beggar (I always tell her to go and lay down when we eat, so nine times out of ten, she automatically does it when food is served, she may have a sniff of the air, just to see what it is we are having, but that's its) but teaching her to settle might help when I have friends round. She has a few nerves, and will submissively pee, especially if there is more than one person in the house, or if that person has a loud voice, or a dominant personality. Teaching her to settle, instead of greeting submissively might help her a lot, she used to pee any time ANYONE, including me, came in, it's taken months of work, but this week she is now greeting me at the door instead of hiding in her crate, and no peeing. She will still go into her crate when me AND my son come home, but the second I sit down she comes out and says hello. It's a shame, she is such a sweet dog, just a little nervous.
drive for extended periods of time. I drove with my pit lab from florida to virginia the first time we drove together and after that trip, he's been calm and cool. You just need to get him used to it, so go out for long drives with him.
and in that time, for the record, not a single accident in the car the whole trip so I dont think you'll have to worry about that. He was still a pup at the time, too.

Your videos are helping so much with my little mans basic training before I get him registered as a Emotional Support Dog. I will be using a lot of your methods throughout his training. To follow his progress, feel free to follow!
This gave me some wonderful insight on my begging Australian shepherd, it's gotten to the point where she will scavenge for human food whenever I leave! And occasionally bust open the trash like she's been feigning for human food! And she will also gard the dogs food from the other shepherd......?
I cant wait to pick up my new best friend, in 4 more weeks my life is gonna change for the best. I"m so excited, i hope your training works with my yorkie .....Thanks you
Oh wow I looooooove this video. I love that breed and seeing you playing with Jacob that way and helping him in such kind and compassionate way it’s just heart warming! You are a great trainer Zack!
I've found that using a clicker and a small food reward at the same time when initially teaching our dog something new really helps; then, when I see that she understands what I'm asking of her, I remove both the clicker and the food from the equation - because I want her to execute the command for me, not for food - and just give her a quick but gentle pat on her head and tell her she's a good girl. It's nice to see that you do the same thing. ::thumbs up::
Love watching your videos! I have a two year old golden retriever. When he was a puppy I was very into training but for the past year and a half I’ve been in a very demanding nursing program and have unfortunately not had the time to continue training like I should have. I’ve been binge watching your videos the past week because I am so determined to get back on the right track with him.
Wow Zac! That was really cool.. It was nice and polite !! Zac, Could you do a video on preventing new puppies from developing food aggression so that they don't get offended in the future ? What things are we ought to do!?? Please do make a video in it.. That would really be helpful to one and all
wow... amazing, i never had a dog but i definitely will in the future and this is a great education and preparation for me. thank you for your amazing work zak! i watch your videos since 2017 and learning so much! I'm definitely getting your book even though it is not in my native language..
Thank you for this video! My first dog wasn't a problem with begging after I taught her lay down with her head down and she soon caught on and would just take a nap when I was eating automatically.lol. my dog now tho is the very opposite and this video has gave solution to her 2 main problems. I tried training her like I did my old dog, but then had to up it to actually teaching her the command "head down" and then later "turn" to make her turn away from me in a 180 turn. But she still bothers me coz she tries to loop hole Everything. And she is also incredibly clingy. She doesn't get separation anxiety anymore (unless we're not at home and I go to the bathroom or something). And she's relatively calm when it's just me, she knows "go away" "buzz off" and "get the fuck away from me" as a cue to get out of my face and go somewhere else.lol. and then she goes to play with her toys or go lay down to nap. But she is extremely clingy. And when there is company, she is the worst. She is a huge attention hog, she demands it. This video will help TONS. She is also very intelligent so sometimes when training, it'll start to work, but she'll figure something out and it no longer works.lol
Zak and Bri these are great. Would love more detail on how long you take with each of these dogs in the descriptions and how long a novice trainer should expect to spend with each concept. It would really help with setting expectations because these videos make it look almost too easy sometimes and I feel like some would be tempted to revert to old bad techniques if they don't have instantaneous zak-like success. Keep up the great work!
Good Job Jacob! In all honesty, huge help. I have my first puppy right now Bella, German Shepard mix and really struggling with the excitement that comes with meal time for adults. Such a helpful video and can’t wait to put to practice.
I am definitely trying my best to make Tyson's training more consistent because he is definitely a ball of energy that gets very out of hand and frustrating!
Thank you for this! I’m going to try this with my dog. She didn’t used to beg but my mom started feeding her human food. It got so bad that I had to threaten my mom to not come over to her house anymore if she kept a feeding my dog. Now my dog begs all the time and it sucks. But hopefully we will get her out of that habit soon!
Wow! My dog looks almost identical to Jacob! Except she’s brindle and white with multicoloured eyes. :) but she’s so similar to Jacob all the way down to how she behaves. I’m hoping I can implement the training shown here because it would be awesome for her to settle when needed.
I watch his show every saturday and bought the book ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxGQVgV21bQ7B9b9duQ1ByImyT9xHbjOKq because i like his method.

I got a bit emotional when he settled down with food in his face. I am soooo proud
So did I!!! Lol what a good boyyyy❤️
Me toooo! 😭
yeah
I just spent 5 hours watching these videos and taking notes for a puppy I might be getting!
That's dedication! Good luck and congrats!
It's been a month and we are looking into breeders. Thank you!
Me too
I'm getting a new puppy tomorrow, a Goldador. Me too taking notes, Anyway my biggest target is potty training and keep him to stay settle downed until i find the time for him.
Kathryn C. I'm doing the exact same!!
Anyone else binge watching all his videos and taking notes incase you get a Lil puppy in the future? 😂😂😂❤️❤️
Dexter Morgan Me!
Dexter Morgan me
hehe Dexter Morgan 😆 yep, me!
me
Dexter Morgan yep me! 😂😂😂

That's deep study....
Dang.. never thought about that

Did anyone else say "good boy" when he listened at the end? XD Jacob is such a sweet dog!
I had to make it 50 likes
As a new owner of a 1.5 year old pit bull/boxer mix, i LOVE that you used one in a video like this! As a rescue dog, I immediately wanted to get a prong collar to begin her training, but seeing YOU train her with basic skills that she already understands and getting quick results has completely changed my mind.

"Luring with the nose, not the eyes." So helpful, thank you!
What a handsome bully. He did such a good job with some consistent work.
Great job, Zak. I've had my rescue Pittie for 26 days, now... and he's getting better. Listens real well in house. Has me on "ignore" outside, but we're working on it.
This is the best video of them all!!!!! "Jacob, settle.." so sweet.
aaah when you said "settle" in the end and he was resting his head again, that was magic! 😄
We are still watching...learn something new everytime
+snowballs442 We love you snowballs! :)
Zak you never fail me!!!! So Jaxson naturally “settles” but he just recently started this begging stuff!!! So I need to connect a command to his “settling” stage and use it when we are eating.

consistency! persistent! Is often why people give up on training their dogs!
This video helped me really understand what it meant to capture calmness. I heard it mentioned quite a few times, but I never really understood/got the concept until now.
Hi
I teared up when he settled with the food on the table! Love this💕 Amazing job! We need more positive trainers
9:23 that look of absolute love and pride when Jacob did what was expected of him
I just got my mature rescue dog today. He has come from a very bad background.

THANK U❤ and sorry for my english haha
Jacob's family must be so proud of their smart, well-behaved boy. You, and they, have done wonderful work with him.
Zak, I have seen this one before. But Jacob's progress always brings tears to my eyes. Thank you for working so diligently with him. I hope to convince my clients to have this amount of patience with their dogs as well.
Thank you so much for using a non-trained dog (to this concept); it makes this feel a lot more possible for a hyper dog
Awwww Jacob is adorable in the settle he looks like a sleeping baby just cute and sweet awwwww
Jacob is such a star! And so is Zak.
Your videos are so high quality, just letting you know.
You should see his only fans
I was just about to search for a video for ideas on correcting my pups behaviour around food like this and got the e-mail in my inbox. perfect coincident.
I have a 6 month old Aussie, 1 yr old husky, and 2 yr old husky and I love the variety of training videos and Zac makes training fun and easy.
Zak is the best teacher - to both dogs and human!
Jacob is such a handsome boy! Zak you are amazing. I really enjoy watching the videos and the love you have for each of the dogs you work with.
my dog is a year old and its not to late to him stuff so far he has learned a lot since i have had him.
Jacob is such a great learner!!
Jacob is so adorable!!!!
thank you I really enjoyed your video I'm tired of yelling to my dog to not beg and this has made me understand that the mind of a dog it's so much more but so easy to get. great video
these are the best dog training videos around.
I’ve got a new puppy and was watching a lot of your videos before hand. My pup is good at sitting, doing down, and walking on leash. Now I need to get him to settle. I would recommend Pupford for everyone here too.

He is such a good boy! So smart!
Oh my gohs.. You make this all look so easy. We have a very high strung puppy on our hands. You're videos are helping.
What a beautiful dog!
Zak you are amazing and have helped me tremendously!!! If anyone needs help with their Dog this is the man!!
I love Jacob. I am inspired now to work with my dog Charlie, settle is just what we need. Thank you from Australia
I love his videos! He always answers my questions and it works!
Jacob is so cool.... he's such a good boy.....
Hii Zak, I'm from Egypt, I really need to thank you for your videos as I have learned and trained my dog through these useful videos, you made me understand how I can communicate with my dog, really appreciated and you are making it easy, thank you again, hope you're fine.

GETTING MY PUP TOMORROW CANT WAIT ur vids allowed me to prove I can take care of a dog
Thanks for another great video with a big high energy dog. It really helps with learning about how to deal with my own.
After watching this video I got my dog to capture Settle eventually. I would say settle whenever he was calm or about to fall asleep. I did this at random times for months (if I remembered).

this is EXACTLY the video I needed to see today. Thank you for all the great content!
Using his videos in training my new service dog. It's making it go so smoothly
Yay!! Zak has covered everything I need for my 4month old doodle :)
Could you please do a video on training your dog to travel in the car ?
drive for extended periods of time. I drove with my pit lab from florida to virginia the first time we drove together and after that trip, he's been calm and cool. You just need to get him used to it, so go out for long drives with him.
and in that time, for the record, not a single accident in the car the whole trip so I dont think you'll have to worry about that. He was still a pup at the time, too.

My dog hates the car. Unfortunately I have to give her medication if we’re going on a long trip because she gets really stressed out
@@jhard94 same as mine! he literally gets car sick and starts throwing up, With a return trips he gets sick once at least.
Thank you Zak... Your videos are just amazing!! Very helpful to teach us the positive and correct ways to enforce good behaviour in our dogs
This is a perfect video! I have a Boston Terrier who is a ball of energy. This is my new training project!
This is great, I am going to try this with my dog who is quite insistent on tasting people's food when she is close to them!
very good advice to start rewarding them randomly, just withholding the treat a few times. I wouldn't have come up with that on my own.
I just adopted an American Staffordshire, so I'm bias. But Jacob is almost perfect!
Your videos are helping so much with my little mans basic training before I get him registered as a Emotional Support Dog. I will be using a lot of your methods throughout his training. To follow his progress, feel free to follow!

That was awesome! I wish pet flow delivered worldwide :/ at least then his advertisements would be relevant to everyone
I cant wait to pick up my new best friend, in 4 more weeks my life is gonna change for the best. I"m so excited, i hope your training works with my yorkie .....Thanks you

Aww Jcaob is so sweet he even wanted to lie down next to Zak
WOW! Fantastic video. Jacob is such a great pup.
I have 2 puppies at different ages and 2 different aged dogs so this is very needed and I am trying to service dog train one
Wow just like my dog and I’m just only a kid and she’s doing awesome thanks to you..
Love watching your videos! I have a two year old golden retriever. When he was a puppy I was very into training but for the past year and a half I’ve been in a very demanding nursing program and have unfortunately not had the time to continue training like I should have. I’ve been binge watching your videos the past week because I am so determined to get back on the right track with him.
I want Jacob!!! He seems so happy all the time!
From my personal experience, I can say that Zak's training methods yield successful results.
Wow Zac! That was really cool.. It was nice and polite !! Zac, Could you do a video on preventing new puppies from developing food aggression so that they don't get offended in the future ? What things are we ought to do!?? Please do make a video in it.. That would really be helpful to one and all
Jacob is such a good boy!!!
wow... amazing, i never had a dog but i definitely will in the future and this is a great education and preparation for me. thank you for your amazing work zak! i watch your videos since 2017 and learning so much! I'm definitely getting your book even though it is not in my native language..
Jacob I love you so much, and you're doing such a great job with "uncle" Zak :) Great video, as always, that you so much for your wisdom Zak.
i love your videos thank you for providing it free and thanks to petflow for sponcering your videos
Awwwwww what a good boy! So cute!
There might be edit making it look better than it really was, but that dog seemed extremely quick to figure out what is being asked from him.
Thank you for this video! My first dog wasn't a problem with begging after I taught her lay down with her head down and she soon caught on and would just take a nap when I was eating automatically.lol. my dog now tho is the very opposite and this video has gave solution to her 2 main problems.

She doesn't get separation anxiety anymore (unless we're not at home and I go to the bathroom or something). And she's relatively calm when it's just me, she knows "go away" "buzz off" and "get the fuck away from me" as a cue to get out of my face and go somewhere else.lol. and then she goes to play with her toys or go lay down to nap. But she is extremely clingy. And when there is company, she is the worst. She is a huge attention hog, she demands it. This video will help TONS. She is also very intelligent so sometimes when training, it'll start to work, but she'll figure something out and it no longer works.lol
jacob is so precious
Wow! How amazing. I'll be trying this with my Lab puppy.
I love your channel, Zak. Been watching for over a year and I don't even have a dog (yet). Keep up the good work!
You are so good at teaching dogs, you could be useful with my dog!
Zak and Bri these are great. Would love more detail on how long you take with each of these dogs in the descriptions and how long a novice trainer should expect to spend with each concept. It would really help with setting expectations because these videos make it look almost too easy sometimes and I feel like some would be tempted to revert to old bad techniques if they don't have instantaneous zak-like success. Keep up the great work!
great video we have the same dog and she just like that and with training she has gotten better and more calm .keep the videos coming
i love your video bro i tried to do this today my dogs finally listen and thank you for your help
Good Job Jacob! In all honesty, huge help. I have my first puppy right now Bella, German Shepard mix and really struggling with the excitement that comes with meal time for adults. Such a helpful video and can’t wait to put to practice.
This really helps with my new gsd puppy, great video!
Gracie Autumn I realy like to know now about your 2 years old gsd. Coz this is not a good way to train gsd
Very awesome! Almost like you pulled a jedi mind trick at 9:14! Keep up the great work!
I am definitely trying my best to make Tyson's training more consistent because he is definitely a ball of energy that gets very out of hand and frustrating!
Awesome concept and I'm working on this with Oaklynn. She's a lot like Jacob so this tutorial helps me with the same issues. Thanks again.
I love these videos with Jacob! He reminds me so much of my dog. These videos are really great for people with hyper dogs.
Thank you for this! I’m going to try this with my dog. She didn’t used to beg but my mom started feeding her human food. It got so bad that I had to threaten my mom to not come over to her house anymore if she kept a feeding my dog. Now my dog begs all the time and it sucks. But hopefully we will get her out of that habit soon!
Wow! My dog looks almost identical to Jacob! Except she’s brindle and white with multicoloured eyes. :) but she’s so similar to Jacob all the way down to how she behaves. I’m hoping I can implement the training shown here because it would be awesome for her to settle when needed.
u r a brilliant trainer.. I love the way you treat them..
