Thanks Pamela! I like showing people what things look like in real time when I can, so everyone can see the struggle of the process too and know that they aren't alone. Happy training!
@@SaraOndrako that is my dog! I just want to have both my dogs in the same room with out unlimited play time that eventually ends in my 6 yo dog getting irritated!
We are struggling with our 3 month puppy and nipping and jumping when excited. I'm going to definitely try these to help with the play time with her toys. As. I'm going through your vids I'm hoping to find one specially for jumping and nipping.
Excellent vid! I'm excited to try some of these great ideas with my puppy! I tried the first one already and quickly realized it wasn't going to work for her because I already taught her to "leave it!"; so the minute she saw the treat on the floor, she was like "nah...not today, dad!"
Hilariously I did the first two with my eight year old Bullterrier and nine year old Cairn. It was so fun and they loved it! Sometimes revisiting these sorts of trainings with older dogs is a blast and brings out the puppy in them, thanks so much!!
Yes the treat on floor is a variation of Susan's It's Yer Choice. I like both, good to mix and vary things. Keeps the dog truly thinking rather than reacting.
awesome! thank you. this will be great for my impulsive older dog. also going to start training this immediately with our puppy - older dog is 2, puppy is 12 weeks.
Hi. I loved this video, but it's difficult for my 14 week old puppy to stop looking at the treat (either on the floor or in my hand), in order for me to reward her. I'm moving my head to make her look at me, albeit, fleetingly. Is this ok?
Hi Laura - great question! Try hiding the treat behind your back and presenting it quickly right at the moment that your puppy is offering the behavior that you want to reward, (and see repeated). To work on that eye contact, check out this video (I've marked the time for you): ua-cam.com/video/7h2jAorpM1c/v-deo.html To slow down her fixation on the food, you can also clicker train her and/or build in duration by using a verbal marker with the treat, then adding time in between the verbal marker and delivering the treat. For example, if you are working on "sit", start first with charging up a verbal cue such as "yes". That will look like "yes" treat "yes" treat "yes" treat, just like charging up a clicker. Then once your puppy knows what "yes" means (treat is coming), starting adding seconds in between delivery. That will look like "yes" (wait 2 seconds) treat, "yes" (wait 4 seconds treat) and so on. Move at the puppy's pace - if she gets distracted slow it down, if she picks up quickly, add even more time. Step three, ask a cue, she offers the behavior, give the "yes" then give the treat. Then ask ask for that behavior again, she gives it, say "yes", wait 2 seconds, then deliver the treat, and so on. Continue building in time. Make sense? 😊 Hope that helps and congrats on the new puppy!
That's great, but my puppy stopped liking kibble and refuses to eat it, while he is being aggresive towards my hand when I hide a treat in my hand and refuse to give it to him. Any tips?
In exercise 2, I'm curious why you choose to remove your hand when he puts his teeth on the toy? Isn't that just reinforcing the idea that if he wants the toy and brings his teeth out, then he gets what he wants?
Hi! Great question! No it won't reinforce that in this case because this dog wants me to engage with him and the toy by way of throwing the toy for him. My rules of the game are no teeth near my hands if you want me to engage and throw it for you. So - if teeth go to grab the toy, I don't grab the toy (he doesn't get what he wants). If he's patient and doesn't try to grab it (which is just natural for him) then I will give him what he wants which is to engage and throw it.
How can you apply this to a dog that will completely lose it when she sees people walking out on the street. She will bark, bite her covers, go back and howl and even snap at our other dog if she's near by. I'm at a loss, I don't know what to do.
Great show! This made me feel better when you used a client's dog that was not trained all the way. Thanks for sharing your tips and techniques ❤🐶🐕🐾🐾

Thank you for using a dog that is actually struggling with this! It helps!
So glad you found this helpful! The dog in the video was my inspiration to make it - he had a LOT of impulse control issues but was so very smart!

Hi, it's so refreshing to see a training video where the dog changes the toy and gets distracted. Made me giggle as well as learning. Thnakyou!
I really appreciate that you showed the whole process with a dog who was learning!
Thanks! So glad you found it helpful 😊
New subscriber ! Thank you! And thank you for showing us the process with an untrained dog, and show us how to solve the problem. Super helpful!
So glad it was helpful!

Thanks so much and glad it was helpful! Kudos to you for already having "leave-it" on board and your pup recognizing that not everything is free game!

This is so helpful! I have two new puppies and one is pretty mild mannered and then I have one that is off the walls impulsive. Thank you!!
Glad it was helpful!
Omg this is so helpful for my Jack Russell he does not care so much for food but he does love playing.
This looks very much like step 3 of Susan Garrets " It's yer choice" :)
Cool! I’m not personally familiar with that program but glad there’s consistent messaging 😊

Excellent! Glad you found it helpful and good luck with your pups!
This is so good!
But I have a doggo who won't take food from your hand even if they're SUPER hungry....
This is super useful information
Thanks Sam! So glad that you found it useful!

When you cover up the food and he bites your hand, what should we do?
I need to do this with live chickens! Help!
I believe that would not work for resource guarding, as the dog would snap or bite if you try to take it away.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
My Standard schnauzer 11 months old is super reactive towards my 2 older minis . How can i
reduce his impulse control towards them please . help
Hi, what breed of dog is this? We adopted a dog that looks very similar but don't know the breed mix
so do we, looks a lot like a Potcake, possible a smaller Black mouth Cur

@Sheila Barbeito teach your dog the “no” command... speaking to a behaviourist will also help.
