      You are 100% right! This was a waste of time! Working with a trained dog to show what the end result should look like is fine for a minute or two. The bulk of this video should be training a dog and its owner that has anxiety issues!!! This was just "Showing Off" a well trained dog. No value!

    My son’s lab had terrible separation anxiety so I took the easy way out. I bought a huge kennel and adopted him a friend. Now they hang out in the kennel together when we have to leave and he is calm, never tries to bust out or chew up the tray. Ha! Not a solution everyone can use, I know. Worked like magic, though.😅

      I do DoorDash. So, it’s not regular hours. Sometimes I may be gone from 8 to even 12 hours at a time. And other times I’m back at the house between every order.
      As much as I know he doesn’t like being locked up, if I said, ok, I’ve gotta go, he’d go straight for his cage. And then he started to differentiate between the body language of me getting ready to leave, as opposed to getting ready to take him outside. Then it eventually got to the point, if he heard the alert from the DoorDash app, he would run to his cage.

      In the 80's -- i.e. before the internet -- I had a dog with separation anxiety, and I hit on the idea of letting her spend the days with a neighbor's young dog who also was unhappy being left alone. I confined them in my kitchen with plenty of water and newspapers on the floor. There was quite the mess to clean up but her big grin when I got home made it all worthwhile. Eventually the neighbor moved away but my dog was cured of her anxiety then so it worked out.

      I have a seven month old Moyenne poodle; I was hoping watching Cesar address this problem, as my dog has severe, separation anxiety.; she has frantically tried to dig her self from behind the door; I do not trust her yet to be alone in the whole house; too many danger factors for her. Yes, I have tried to think of anything she might get into and put them extremely high, put them in containers; but she still is able to get what she wants.Factors that probably contribute or that it is only the dog and I. I got her to train her as a service dog, but I am having doubts that will be possible with the destructive separation anxiety she has. I.e. she had been crated before and was very anxious. I mistakenly thought, giving her a bigger room would help. Put the crate in the room for her to have all her comfort things along with items with my scent. I cannot count how many times she follows menow. She has figured out a please in the house, where she can keep an ion me at all times, and lays there, if she hears me move, she jumps right up and comes to my side. Her eyes follow me constantly while she is eating. If I am out of sight, she will stop eating and look for me. I have tried the technique of going inch by inch away from her, if she sit/stays and comes on command she is rewarded. She nose bumps the frame of my wheelchair as if she is checking "yes she still here". She is good with other dogs; gets too excitable and jumps with people. My wheelchair has been out of order since December 2022, so it very much interrupted training and not able to give her proper exercise. Caesars cute dog in the clip, to me, does not actually have separation anxiety, so it is difficult to really see he works with a dog with severe separation anxiety.

      @ChillisaSpeedruns Рік тому +2

      @@cheryldamico6210 One thing I noticed in your comment is the "if she sit/stays and comes on command she is rewarded" Cesar says in this video NOT to recall your dog from the place you are trying to get them to stay at because you are rewarding your dog for leaving that place and coming towards you, which is the opposite of what you want. You want to tell your dog to stay in one place while you move away from them. If they are able to stay in that place you go back to them and reward them. You just keep on doing this and you'll be able to go further away from your dog for longer periods of time. Remember, don't call your dog from these places because it's a fun game your doing where your dog is challenged to stay in that place until you come back! Hope this helps!!

      Well done. Cesar is focused on being a TV star. He doesn't show the dirty part. By dirty part, I mean what seems inhumane to humans but means leadership that dogs are hungry for as dogs. He always shows things at a macro level after success rather than the daily work that goes in at a micro level. He is EXCELLENT at training dogs, but he really does a rather poor job of educating humans how to relate to their dogs. You have it right! I encourage you to delve into the world of TRUE balanced dog training. I think Cesar practices balanced dog training but presents more of a positive only approach to be popular, showing results without showing methods. You are definitely on the right track and your approach is definitely more compassionate and loving to dogs that those that criticize you for being cruel. Keep up the good work!

    My Boston has horrible separation anxiety. What I just started this week is giving her a big hollowed out bone with a little peanut butter inside right before I leave and telling her, “ I have to go to work” before I go, so now she’s understanding she gets treat because I’m leaving. I haven’t heard her yelping and barking when I’m outside so I’m hoping she will start understanding.

      I just wanted to say that putting a dog in a crate isn’t a bad thing. Dogs are naturally den animals. Hence, if you give them a treat they really relish, they will often take it back to their bed (den). Dogs will often feel anxious if they are left in a large amount of space because they feel they have to protect it. The smallest amount of space they are in,(as long as they can stretch out and stand up without any restriction), makes them actually feel safer. It’s also much easier when it comes to puppy training. Dogs won’t naturally soil their own bed, so the smaller you make the space, the less likely they are to pee in the bed. (den). We have used crates all our 3 dogs over the last 22 years and each one of them has been happy and healthy. This is the first dog we have had one that has really suffered from separation anxiety (he’s only 14 weeks old). I just didn’t want crate training to be demonised as something that is cruel to dogs, actually it is something that makes them feel a lot more secure.
      Thank you, Caesar, for such a great video, we have already started implementing this technique, our dog is a cocker spaniel, so he’s a quick learner! We are trying to make the “designated space” the threshold of a room, and his bed (eventually it will be his bed permanently, but like you having multiple tables around, we are using the threshold of a room to create the separation gradually, as Reuben wants to be with my husband constantly, literally, touching! So the fact that we have managed to get him to stay at the threshold of a room and then reward him calmly with affection and reassurance that he is a “good boy“ is a massive achievement. 🙏🤞🐾❤️

      @@kyliegirl1976exactly. One trainer was saying how one of the worse things new puppy owners make is giving their pups/dogs too much unsupervised freedom.
      A crate should be a pups/dogs safe space anyway. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with crate training so long as it’s no used as a form of punishment. If I can’t physically keep eyes on my pup, I know she’s going to be safe in her crate, which prevents toileting accidents and her getting into something she shouldn’t be.

    The moment I first watched this video, my immediate thought was that I couldn't do it. I was too attached to my dog and thought the training was primarily for humans. However, I now understand the true purpose of training: to bring happiness and well-being to both humans and dogs! Thank you for showing me how humans and dogs can come together and live harmoniously. 😊

      Right!? I have three standard Dachshunds that follow me all over the house and I am retired so they are rarely without me but the reason I have more than one is because I never want them to be truly alone when we are gone. We bought a motorhome so they could always be with us when we go on vacation!

    I worked in rescue years ago and fostered dogs. I had one of the sweetest dogs with severe separation anxiety. She was with me for a few weeks because my elderly mother lived with me and was home 24/7. The dog was placed in several homes but went crazy, was extremely destructive when left alone. I don't know what happened, but I never forgot her. I am forwarding this video to my grandchildren in college. I know they will have pets throughout their lives and want them to know how dogs think and how to help them. You are so knowledgeable. Thanks for caring and sharing.
    Do you have any books or videos that cover training a puppy from day one? Not just for one issue but everything.

    I reset my relationship with my husky who had separation anxiety after my alpha dog died. Aside from her needs, i Ignored her for 2 weeks and kept her outside my office while I worked. She cried for 2 weeks, but then stopped and I reintroduced myself as her friend while being cautious not to baby her too much so as to have a repeat of behaviour. It worked.

You seek to cater to your own emotions, thinking you’re helping the dog, but your over sensitivity to your needy emotions blind you from the actual needs of a canine (and child as the psychology is quite similar).
      Honestly, you’re absurd and ignorant with regard to basic child/dog psychology. Good luck with that. The rest of your armchair analysis is laughable and far removed from the truth.

I don’t like to think you are a cold unfeeling person who does not have the capacity for empathy - no - I’m sure you are a good and decent person who simply is on life’s learning curve and who cares about humans and animals.
