I didnt spend enough time away, or maybe its just his breed. I made a point to get out of the house without him, even to just roam around. Some days I worked long hours too but he isjust always so clingy in the cutest way. Hes a really goo boy and listens well, He will wait patiently in the crate when I come home and not howl, but when he knows Im about to leave he goes nuts. He bites and claws the crate (even warping and bending it) Its insane. Hes totally fine in there till the moment he hears me grab my keys or hears my shoes. And its really sad to hear him, but he only ever does it when im leaving =( If im shwering or doing dishes or cooking where I couldnt keep an eye on him hes fine. but he hates the thought of me not even being home so much that hes literally bent a crate to the point its hard to open the door. I guess I could of spent more time away from him, but its not like hes scared of the crate or hates it. Its just SO hot here, and I cant bring him everywhere with me. That and not feeding him more variety of raw foods. hes pretty picky =( and its frustrating.

@@rianlynn3854 please do not leave your dog in a crate while you go out! That’s not the idea for them at all, and it’s very cruel and mentally torturous for a dog.
You are so good with your words! Very soft, confident, and to the point!
This channel never disappoints! I am forever grateful for everything you do, Rachel. Thank you so much for taking the time to create these extremely wonderful and informative videos 💕
Your comments never disappoint. Always brightens my day ☀️
This is the video I have been waiting for for a long time! Thank you so much Rachel for everything that you have done and every piece of knowledge you have gaven us viewers
It’s honestly my pleasure thank you so much
Love love this! Thank you!
I'm loving your channel and learning so much as I prep for a puppy. One thing I'm really looking into is food. With my older dogs that have crossed the rainbow, my vet discouraged a grain-free diet so I used Earthborn Ancient Grains along with their wet food. I'd love to hear (or read) your thoughts on grain-free foods. Thank you for saving all the damn dogs!
I have a Goldendoodle puppy and I’m learning a lot from you. I really appreciate your informative video🙏
Hi Rachel! Thank you for all your advice and tips! Wondering if you have any tips for a dog that barks only in the car?
My pleasure!! And yes, I’d desensitize the car. Practice being in the car and rewarding calm behavior in your driveway in short sessions. Continue practicing this to reinforce positive outcomes by being quiet in the car!
Hi thank you for helping us! 😁
It’s my honor ❤️
Hi Rachel! What are your tips to stop puppy nipping and biting? Thank you!
Redirect redirect and redirect! Example: m.ua-cam.com/video/BC8_c4xeSNQ/v-deo.html
Hi Rachel! I was wondering what your opinion is on heartworm preventatives and what you do for your dogs if you give them any? Thank you!
Following. I'm wondering this too and flea and tick prevention.
I prefer a more natural approach when possible! m.ua-cam.com/video/mO60PsJAygM/v-deo.html
ive been feeding my new puppy half kibble/half small batch dog sliders and yesterday weened her off the kibble yesterday. I only feed my toy poodle twice a day im hoping its enough.
This is fantastic, love that you’re feeding a raw fresh food. And twice a day is usually great 👏
Hi Rachel I have been watching your videos and they have really told me about good things for dogs and bad things like I used to things that rawhide was good and now I feel ready for my new puppy coming in September and have taken your advise from ur vids and have bark box coming soon and have already gotten your fav crate and play pen etc for her in my home and I will continue watching your vids
I’m so glad we’ve connected. Thank you for all you do for your dog 🫶
Any advice about starting my mini goldendoodle on being my service dog?
Yesss. My puppy barked at his own reflection, drawers opening and my sneezing. 😄 When he barks at anything, I just had him exposed more and more to it until he got used to it.
slight correction: negative reinforcement is not synonymous with corrections. negative reinforcement is more so on the positive side than anything. it just means to take away something uncomfortable in order to reinforce a certain behavior. you're referring to positive punishment, where something uncomfortable or aversive is added in order to help decrease a certain behavior. this should be avoided with puppies, at least until around 6-8 months.
A man on UA-cam said that Farmers Dog did not come in time so they gave him a recipe and it was a lot of rice and some peas too. I still think it is wayyyy better than kibble and I just love your channel and everything about it. You have prepared me for my new puppy.
Hey Rachel! I had a question about dealing with separation anxiety. What steps should I make consistently to help build up my dog’s confidence? I’m crate training him, but he struggles any time he’s away from me.
Mine acts like I left him to die. Every time I leave him alone he does not bark but literally screams like someone is killing him. I can not leave him tied up to go anywhere its crazy. He half hates half loves his play pen and crate.
Love how you recognize that building confidence can improve separation anxiety. This can be done by shorter practice sessions being alone for super short periods and returning - a lot. To normalize you leaving, AND coming back. Here’s examples m.ua-cam.com/video/vxJrgQX53IM/v-deo.html
Hey Rachel😊 my puppy is now over a year old and we’ve been living in the same apartment for as long as we’ve had him. Every time the neighbors come home and walk up the steps above my apartment he barks and doesn’t stop, I figured he’d be used to the noise by now since he hears it every single day. He is decently socialized but he gets fearful with noises. I reward him when he stops barking but it doesn’t seem to be working, Any tips on how to stop this?
Have you tried the thank you game? This really helped with Wally who struggled with the same. Here’s how: m.ua-cam.com/video/IZ-pMX7wWCY/v-deo.html
Hi Rachel. I wanted to ask you . When I click on the “kibble” section. The first one that comes out is Carna4. Would you say that’s your favorite one out of all the kibbles? If not which is? I’m thinking of doing kibble with farmers dog food as a topper. What do you think? I’m getting a puppy soon . Bernadoodle.
It’s hard to pick an absolute favorite because every dog is different, but probably yes. It’s truly incredible ❤️❤️ and yes, FD as a topper is 🙌
I love your content and was looking to buy the wildebeast treat pouch to make it easier to train my dog but the link on your website no longer works. I think the item has been renamed or something but even when I found it on the website the promo code wasn't working, and I want to support your channel! Will this link be updated?
Hi Rachel
Love ur videos .
I really need ur help with crate training
Make the crate Disneyland, normalize being in and around it. More tips here! ua-cam.com/play/PLpZYLEY5gyrtdPIso_0qvlvO9WfBhb3x0.html
@@RachelFusaro thank u. He stays 4 like 10 /15 & whines. Ur videos 4 puppy potty training worked great. Hes also not biting as much, hes a 4 month old Dogo Argentino & omg so much energy, Now just working on jumping & crate.
Just discovered you! Thanks for all your information! I have a 8 month old shelter pup (pit mix). We got her at 12 weeks and she is super timid. She was not socialized much before we got her-assuming she was in a backyard litter, before being dumped. How do I help her timidness, especially around my husband, she is so scared of him. Thanks
Try hand-feeding her meals instead of putting them in a bowl. That creates a bond between you & the dog, as well as teaches them not to bite. (Because when they start to use their teeth put your hand back, and when they just lick say yes or your marker word.) Rachel has a video on this too! Also, play mind games with eachother or something like Hide N Seek.
Pizzagirlplays 🫶
Building confidence will be key, and this can be done through brain games and working on basic training! Example: m.ua-cam.com/video/TkHl2eqFnyM/v-deo.html
Rachel big fan of you and your channel. I want to give my pup the ultimate food. What exactly do u recommend. I know you speak about raw food. How much and what would u recommend. Also I want to start taking my 5 month old pup to puppy school how do I pick a good one? Any tips?
Love that you want to feed the best! Unfortunately there’s not a one size fits all food, but as always I will prefer foods that are in their most natural state (ie minimally processed) with whole food ingredients and responsibly sourced. I feed my adult dogs once a day, and keep feeding times random! When puppies they are 3x a day. Here’s my list of favorite foods: www.rachelfusaro.com/dogbetter
Have you had experience with formm big food is this a good brand. We have a dog that is allergic to any grain. We are hoping to be getting a puppy in a couple weeks and was looking at this brand of food for the new puppy. I wasn’t to sure if we could feed the puppy the same food or have to get one in the same brand that’s not grain free.
Hello Rachel, thank you for your videos! I am giving my pups simply nourished by petsmart, what is your feedback about this kibble?
Also, both my pups were good sleeping in the crate but one night the crate of the younger one fell with my pup inside, she got traumatized and doesn’t want to sleep in the crate anymore. What can I do to help her be comfortable with the crate again? What would you recommend? Thank you
Can you share the link for that brand? I’ll dig into it. As for crate, I know it’s a stretch but is it in your budget to get a different crate and start over - and work on making the new one SUPER positive? More tips: ua-cam.com/play/PLpZYLEY5gyrtdPIso_0qvlvO9WfBhb3x0.html
Thank you so much for responding. That’s actually a great idea. Will try to get another crate. Here’s the link to the kibble www.petsmart.com/dog/food/dry-food/simply-nourish-original-small-breed-adult-dry-dog-food---chicken-and-brown-rice-5287518.html?gclsrc=aw.ds&gbraid=0AAAAADiLNNkQx36jOrcYp9jGuQMf0vS5f&gclid=Cj0KCQjwgO2XBhCaARIsANrW2X25WLGAhMRZ2eGJtNDhTNEQ-4l1ZcweIG3A6-bH-g3frast-_TVfRoaAtIlEALw_wcB
Quicks question I'm been struggling with finding a dog food for my picky labradoodle she seems to not like kibble but the farmers dog and food of that sort are to expensive for me what affordable food would you recommend that I cam find at petco or Walmart or affordable places like those? I also have a goldendoodle he is better at eating so I feed him kibble what would you recommend for both my dogs that I can get like I previously mentioned walmart or petco?
Totally, fresh food is more costly for sure. I love that you want to feed the best. What about adding fresh foods to the bowl, like sardines in water no salt or blueberries? My fav foods here: www.rachelfusaro.com/dogbetter
Hi Rachel. Could you do a review about Just Right Food by Purina? I’m feeding my puppy with it. And I think I have followed all your recommendations. But wanted to be sure if I did it ok. Thanks in advance!
I actually shared my favorite foods, finally hehe. It’s here: www.rachelfusaro.com/dogbetter
What do you think about nomnom
We're having such a hard time potty training & socializing our new puppy. We live in an apartment building where the units are indoors, and we have to carry her until we get outside or else she'll pee in the hallway/elevator. She's also extremely timid of strangers, people can be walking by 50 feet away and she'll yelp and try to run off even if they aren't paying her any attention.
Awh little one! 🥺🥺 Have you tried a fresh patch? I share more on that here: m.ua-cam.com/video/APn-QnUbq0s/v-deo.html
Regarding timidness, I’d schedule in 3 short sessions each day where you work with her using high value food/treats/toys in areas where she normally gets nervous. Work on basic focus on me, sits, down, touch. This will help desensitize the distractions and teach her that it’s rewarding to focus on you
I am confused on raw food portioning and feeding amounts and would love more information on that. Also was wondering your thoughts on primal raw dog food? It’s the only brand that my pet store has.
My puppy got sick off of primal frozen patties. Had diarrhea for 5 days straight could not sleep through the night. I would suggest the freeze dried, he never got sick off of that.
Looking for this same info. Looking into We Feed Raw brand at the moment 🤞
I’m about to test we feed raw!! I have tons of questions for them but am excited about the potential
😔
For raw, I’d definitely start by following the feeding guidelines on the packaging - as they’re all a bit different based on the meat %. It’s generally 2.5% of their body weight.
I’m not against Primal. They have decent sourcing and are minimally processed, but some of their flavors are lower protein than I prefer and for whatever reason - my dogs weren’t a huge fan. That said, I’d feed it over an extruded kibble for sure!
Hi, we have a new puppy been with us for under a week. We follow your potty training plan, but it seems every time I put her in the play pen to go to the toilet she poos! How can I stop this happening? I take her regularly to the garden and make it time for potty. This morning she went in the garden then after meal time she pooed on the floor again. Please advise!
Hi Rachel,
Do you have any suggestions for a dog with recurrent calcium oxalate bladder stones?
My 7-year-old male dog has had 2 bladder stone surgeries less than a year apart. The vet put him on a prescription diet which obviously didn't work the first time around since he needed a second surgery. Now in addition to the Rx diet (Purina Pro Plan UR Urinary Ox/St wet food), he also has to take chewable potassium citrate supplements twice a day and his urine pH finally seems to be where we want it. So honestly, I'm not sure if the Rx diet is working (I don't think it's making a difference) or if it's the Potassium Citrate that's helping.
Do you have any recommendations for me? I really don't want him on the prescription diet for the rest of his life. These are the ingredients for a can of Purina Pro Plan UR Urinary Ox/St food:
Ingredients:
Chicken, Water Sufficient For Processing, Rice, Meat By-Products, Liver, Powdered Cellulose, Guar Gum, Carrageenan, Magnesium Sulfate, Potassium Chloride, Potassium Citrate, Natural Smoke Flavor, Added Color, Calcium Sulfate, Vitamin E Supplement, Zinc Sulfate, Thiamine Mononitrate, Mono And Dicalcium Phosphate, Ferrous Sulfate, Niacin, Copper Sulfate, Calcium Pantothenate, Manganese Sulfate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride, Vitamin B-12 Supplement, Riboflavin Supplement, Vitamin A Supplement, Folic Acid, Vitamin D-3 Supplement, Biotin, Potassium Iodide, Sodium Selenite. A-2594
THANK YOU for advocating for your pet - I personally would be questioning this too. And so sorry your dog is going through this, I know it feels hopeless. I’d personally find a holistic vet (AHVMA.org has a great find a vet resource). Here’s an article that will help too: healthypets.mercola.com/sites/healthypets/archive/2021/11/12/dog-bladder-stones.aspx
I tried the farmers dog and my puppy didn’t like it. Then tried spot and tango and my puppy liked it more especially their unkibble but I am now making my own food for him. He gets kibble in his snuffle toys and I add dog vitamins to the food I make to ensure nutrients. Some snacks are frozen tiny peppers and green beans. I have a few dog food cookbooks too. Your advice is terrific. Thank you!
This is fantastic and such a great reminder that every dog is different. There’s not a “one fit” food, and I love that you kept trying until you found something that works
@@RachelFusaro It’s actually cheaper making fresh food! I make a week supply and I keep it in the fridge. If he shows a little boredom freeze dried or little cheese does the trick. Thank you all your advice has been spot on!
Hi , what is your opinion on Open Farm kibble? And which one you prefer between Open Farm and Carna4?
That’s a tough one, I like ONE line of open farm’s kibble and all of Carna4 is amazing. For most dogs, I’d probably pick Carna4. But it is more spendy so that is a factor. Here’s my offices dog food list that compares them: m.ua-cam.com/video/TkHl2eqFnyM/v-deo.html
@@RachelFusaro I just ordered Carna4 :) let's see how it goes, will start with a slow transition. Thanks for your guidance. Appreciate it!
How often should you feed your puppy? I feed my 1 and a half year old 40lb Mini Bernedoodle Farmers Dog (1/3 each meal, 1pouch a day). Sometimes I worry it's too little/ too much. Any advice?
Love this! Until they’re ~12-18 months, I typically feed 3x a day. After that I reduce to 1-2x a day based on what works best for the dog. My 12.5 and 5 year old eat once a day! More here: m.ua-cam.com/video/IGG5m4OH9NY/v-deo.html
I'm working on making the switch to a raw food diet. How do you find info on the amount to feed? I see so much conflicting info. I have a 1 year old male Standard Poodle.
LOVE THIS for your 🐩!!! I’d start with a commercially available complete and balanced food (ie one from your local pet shop) and follow the feeding guidelines on the packaging. Then you can get into DIY! I share my favorite raw brands here: ua-cam.com/play/PLpZYLEY5gyrtdPIso_0qvlvO9WfBhb3x0.html
💯 advice!! If I could go back I would've done the shots thing differently like take my girl for walks in a backpack outside earlier
Hindsight is 20/20 but now you know!!
Can you do a review on MAEV?
Omg should I 👀
Hi Rachel! Do you know where we can find raw feeding information in Spanish??
What food do you suggest for severe allergies? My dog was just put on Royal Cannin prescription hydrolized dog food because she keeps getting severe ear infections, yeast infections in all four paws (almost turning cystic), and is losing her hair. Is there something else we could try that isn’t Royal canin?
I’m glad you’re looking for alternatives ❤️❤️ I’d start by looking for a holistic vet (AHVMA.org has a great find a vet resource). And often, allergies are made worse with ultra-processed, high carb synthetic rich foods like RC (just my experience - I’m not a vet). I’ve seen so many dogs with severe allergies that are allergic to “everything” start eating a super limited ingredient raw diet and absolutely thrive (hence why a new vet would be a good route). My favorite raw foods: m.ua-cam.com/video/BC8_c4xeSNQ/v-deo.html
We just got a new puppy 4 weeks ago (Dutch Shepherd / Malinois mix). At first, she ate her food extremely fast (most puppies seem to be that way because of being fed together in a litter....they have to eat fast and sometime be aggressive in order to make sure they get some food). After about a week, she slowed down and after about two weeks, we can put her daily 3 cups of food (kibble) in her bowl and she will come and go as she is hungry. Sometimes, there is still food left over in the morning. We are giving her whole food (chicken meat, steak, hamburger, frozen raw patties, pumpkin, etc.. at different times of the day so that might be partly why she doesn't feel the need to (or want to) eat all of her kibble at once. I think it depends on the dog and the situation. She is currently an only dog and I think that is easier to do. I had a German Shepherd growing up and we filled her bowl in the morning and she ate whenever she wanted....sometimes it would last a couple of days. If you have more dogs, I think they have FOMO and scarf everything down.
Love my new puppy . I bought the slow feeder bowel but he turns it over and eats off floor. I worry he devours his food so fast he gets hiccups.
Hi Rachel! I was wondering if you had any thoughts on Farmhound hide chews. I’ve always heard that rawhide was a no-no for dogs, but the websites differentiate their hide chews from “industrial, processed rawhide chews” and say they are “Transparently sourced from 100% pasture-raised, grass-fed cattle, these naturally dried hides are the complete hide. They are NOT stripped, processed with toxic chemicals, or dyed like many industrially made rawhides.”
I’ve seen some other pet influencers talk about them on IG but wanted to know what your thoughts are. Thanks!
Ohhhh I just looked those up and wow, actually looks good. I haven’t personally fed yet, but I’m gonna grab some. I’d definitely try for my boys! They’re single ingredient. I’d like to know how their dried (some “cook” at extremely high temps which can make digestion harder for some dogs)
look into yak milk chews =D my puppy was obsessed. They make different sizes. Also rolled beef cheek, they are like 5$ at a farm feed store but last a few weeks easily. Upwards of a few months if its a baby baby. (My pup is 8 months, had him since 3 months, and hes only on his second one. He eats raw bones too so hes got the crunching power, these just get softer as they are chewed and dont smell or leave stains =D )
Is it true that probiotics can help my puppy if she is very itchy an bites her paws very often? If so, is there any specific brand you recommend?
How do I get my puppy to stop scratching at the door when I need to leave them outside for less than 10 minutes. I try to give my pup a break from being in the crate but can’t have him free since I’m cleaning the house. He also jumps over gate
I’m actually not a fan of leaving dogs outdoors unsupervised, as there’s a lot of unknown variables. Have you tried a taller playpen or taller baby gate solution? This is super tall: amzn.to/3QOJwbZ
Question - I’m getting a new puppy in 3 weeks. Should I set an alarm to wake her to potty at night or wait for her to wake me? I’ve heard conflicting opinions. Thanks.
Honestly I we did with Wally and while it was EXHAUSTING and felt impossible, he potty trained so flipping fast. The key is to make the night time potty breaks super boring and fast. Here’s how we did it m.ua-cam.com/video/bmXFXkkWOdQ/v-deo.html
The 50% discount on farmers dog doesn’t work in the U.K., would they be willing to extend it to the U.K. please?
Oh no!!! I’m sorry 😔 I’ll see!

Noooo 😔 maybe one day 🤔
Hi, just curious I thought you were doing raw food diet for your dogs?
Hello Rachel
I have a 4 month old puppy. I watch all your videos. I try hard to give him the best. At this time I can’t do raw meat. What are your thoughts on Arcana Kibble by Petco? I currently have my puppy on Nulo but just learned he is allergic to chicken. I can’t find anything that doesn’t contain a bit of chicken, except for Arcana. HELP!!!
Rachel mentioned The Farmer’s Dog in this video, and said that they create a meal based on your dog’s allergies & preferences. This is completely true! My neighbor’s dog is allergic to chicken as well, and uses The Farmers Dog too! It is an online ordering company though, so if you aren’t alright with that then I don’t know how to help.
Unfortunately at this time I can’t afford it.
I love that you’re trying to do your best. It can feel so overwhelming but you’re doing a great job 👏 I actually listed my fav foods here! www.rachelfusaro.com/dogbetter
What do you use to remove urine stains/odors from carpet?
This 💯: amzn.to/3JVapsm
How do you prevent resource guarding? My 4.5mo old golden retriever puppy who had otherwise always been okay with us near his food bowl started this bad habit and now doesn’t give many warning signs, the growl turns to snapping quickly which makes it hard for us to approach him carefully with food/treats in hand. He stays in this “mood” for up to 10min after his meal is done making him unpredictable.
everytime you get close, offer a VERY high value treat. this way, he will make a positive association with your presence, instead of seeing you as a threat to his resource. if he has a chew or toy, offer a trade up with him with someone of highest value, so he again makes that positive association with having something taken away. when he eats, leave him alone completely, and let him finish so he doesn't get stressed out enough to lash out at you or anything else
Just a video edit idea! It would be great if you created chapters in the video and more text on the screen. But, if this is too hard because of how it might take extra time, no worries!
Hey @rachel is it ok if I switch my 10 week old puppy to a balanced barf diet? I’ve sourced a good supplier here in Australia and they say it is fine to transition my pup to Barf at this age. Cheers
Yes! Puppies can eat raw as soon as they’re weaned as long as it’s balanced, and actually will be more open to trying different proteins, etc.
@@kristaanne2144 thank you!
What’s the difference between Farmers Dog and Fresh Pet dog food?
What If you got 2 pups from different breeds at the same time and neither has had vaccinations how do you keep them safe in the same home
Would you consider 30% of a meal being carbs too high? Thank you!
It’s probably the highest I’d feed!
Rachel please do a video about GIANT dog crates. My puppy is 8 months, over 80 pounds. Was told hed be 90 full grown, its fine cause i love big dogs. But he has the biggest crate I could find, and hes getting cramped. Hes still got a lot of growing to do (malamute mix). He barely fits into a 48" and I just ordered a 54" but I dont even think that would be big enough =( do you have experience with giant puppies?
Yesss, have you tried impact crates?
@@RachelFusaro HI! You saw my comment, I am so happy! Been watching you since I brought the fluffy boy home! (he eats all raw thanks to you)
To answer though,
impact no, but I've tried looking at xl, xxl, xxxl and giant dog crates. They say they are made for great danes and such but are still only 48"L and that makes no sense to me cause my puppy would be nose to but in that with no room to sit =( Granted Im doing a search and do not know much about individual companies. is there one you could please recommend?
Tips on how to get your dog to like Raw Food again. He ate Raw Food as a puppy but at 6 months became a picky eater and refused to eat Raw Food. We now alternate between freeze dried raw and Carna4 kibble with boiled chicken and veggies.
You have a lucky dog! Some dogs prefer it more at room temp, or add warm water on it. Or add raw goat milk to entice them. If not, a gently cooked food is another great option!
Is it better to get one puppy then wait a little time before getting another? I want to assure my second dog likes the puppy I have now. She’s 6 months old.
When feeding a puppy by hand, what would you feed if the meal is raw food?
I use disposable gloves when hand feeding my puppy her raw food or just wash my hands after!
But how do you redirect biting in a 14 weeks old puppy who has a ton of toys, and cannot entertain himself with them? Yes, my puppy is too attached, because I have a partner who is home all day, and isn't as disiplined as me... He hasn't owned a dog before.
Do you think you will start fostering again soon? I volunteer at a rescue and shelter and it is so sad how every rescue/shelter is drowning in animals. It is just so disheartening to see people breeding their dogs when countless of dogs are dying in shelters every day because of a lack of space. Even if you can’t adopt we always spread the message at my organization that fostering Dave’s lives. Not just one live but two lives because you are opening up another kennel to allow a dog to stay in.
Absolutely, ridiculously big plans in the making for that. We’ve been renting so I can only volunteer at shelters, but fostering is coming soon. I honestly can’t wait
Are over confident dogs more difficult to train? Will the handler needs to be extra firm?
I gave my puppy water boiled broccoli, sweet potato, celery, carrot, pepper, some chicken breast and sometime a bit banana and apple.
I love this for your dog
I have a border doodle who is obsessed with playing with toys. He constantly barks at us to get us to play and if we put toys away he still barks. When we don't respond he bites the couch. How can I get him to chill out and stop being a toy bully.
Fin can be a toy bully, too! Well, balls specifically. And candidly, we found that by removing balls it helped tremendously. Dogs don’t need toys and balls to be happy. And sometimes they can amp them up *too* much
border doodle? that's a very odd and irresponsible combination. it wouldn't shock me if he behaves like this because he has two different genetic drives mixed together. that driving-herding drive meshed with that soft mouth retrieval drive is just behavioral issues waiting to happen. look out for that in the future
Hi
👋 love
Sad 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
I watched the very beginning a few times and I'm not clear on this, are you saying doggy play/daycare is bad for puppies?
I thought this brand has too much grains? peas and brown rice?
My 8 month old miniature golden doodle. Goes to sleep at night fine in the laundry room. She wakes up every night 5-6 hours later and barks. She does not need to potty. She wants to be with us in our room. I really want her to learn to sleep all night in the other room.
This is common, and even at 8 months their bladder can still be developing (esp for smaller dogs). When they wake up, I’d keep the routine SUPER simple. When they cry, open crate with zero excitement and zero energy, just open crate and go directly to potty area. Don’t interact, don’t play, don’t pet and don’t talk. Just give them change to potty then go straight back to crate. It’ll take a bit to re-train this but stay consistent- also make sure they’re comfortable in crate. Is it getting too cold/warm for them? Is there a noise in the house waking them up?
Your mean. Just let them sleep in your room. She'll probably sleep thru the night
👍👍👍👍❣😊🐢
A problem I've encountered is I say "puppy puppy puppy" and try to redirect. The puppy ignores me or runs away 🤔
How many shots does a puppy have to get to be in public?
not all of us can dedicate our lives to our puppies. where should we put our puppies when we have work? I don't have family.
Doggie daycare or a pet sitter
Indoor fourfooted beasts
Idolatry
Prov.3 KJV
[5] Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
[6] In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
If you use your indoor fourfooted beast for protection, you are committing idolatry.
If you praise your indoor fourfooted beast more than you do God, you are commiting idolatry.
If you are giving your indoor fourfooted beast more time than you do God, you are commiting idolatry.
If you and your indoor fourfooted beast go everywhere together and are a "thing", then you are commiting idolatry.
If you spend more time training your indoor fourfooted beast than worshipping God then you are committing idolatry.
If your indoor fourfooted beast is your best freind, then you are commiting idolatry. God should be
Your bestie.
If you clothe or accesorize or paint your indoor fourfooted beast nails, you are commiting idolatry.
If you got your indoor fourfooted beast certified as an emotional support animal, you are commiting idolatry.
If you consider your indoor fourfooted beast as your child, your are commiting idolatry.
If you tongue kiss your indoor fourfooted beast, you are commiting idolatry and beastiality.
If you treat your indoor fourfooted beast like a god or human or replace God or a human in any way, you are commiting idolatry.
If your fourfooted beast disrupts you from meditating on God in any way, you are commiting idolatry.
Repent.
Romans 1 KJV
[21] Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
[22] Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
[23] And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible , and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
[24] Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
[25] Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
Gods children turned from him to idols and indoor fourfooted beasts and such.
God gave them up to uncleanliness, guilty of original sin again.
Because they worshipped the creature more than the creator.
The remedy is fervent faith and repentance.
Unrepentance is unforgivable to Jesus.
Thank you for posting this.... dogs are so very TIME CONSUMING... and pets should NOT be an idol
God bless you !
My son wants a golden retriever puppy and I don't want this to impede my ministry and Bible time...
I need to be careful not to make anything an idol
What if you redirect, and give them their toy, and they still bit your arm….after several attempts. I even take him in the yard and sniff freely. Bring him back in he still nips at my arm.
early!
Farmers is to expensive
How can you like this food brand? It has so many chemicals!!! Their beef recipe has lentils which is horrible!!! The turkey recipe has chickpeas which is terrible!!! I can't even look at any other recipes. Because of you I only feed raw fresh food with only whole ingredients and no synthetic vitamins. I am disappointed in this video.
Unfortunately, not every dog tolerates raw 😔 I’ve been working with more and more pet parents and it’s re-opening my eyes to the fact that every dog is different. Yes, FD uses synthetic vitamins (so do many raw brands). AND… I’m meeting more and more pet parents that are immunocompromised, so feeding raw makes them wary. All that said, I’ll always prioritize fresh foods in their most natural state and LOVE your dedication to your pets 👏
Farmers Dog seems amazing but they don’t ship to Europe 🥲
