She is the embodiement of "i tried nothing and am all out of ideas"
😂
EX😂CEL😂LENT!
OMGosh! This made me laugh so hard.
I must admit. I love Fiona. She is just so smart, inventive and energetic. She just needs boundaries and manners, and... to be walked.
I have a Bichon Frise, naturally I love Fiona. 😍
I have 3 dogs, the Bichon, a Shih-tzu, and a Shih-tzu poodle mix. The 4 year old Bichon has a heart problem and the Shih-tzu is almost 8, so they're pretty mellow dogs. But the Shih-tzu is only 2 and has quite excessive energy. A 40 minute walk is enough for the first two dogs, but not for the youngest. So what I do is to play fetch when we got home, so the Shih-poo can burns her energy.
So the basics really it's a shame 4 her 😢
And a better owner
Yes shes behave and smart, plus they have a nice backyard for her to play 😌 and i bet shes easy to walk
For someone who doesn't have the time and has no interest in paying attention to her dog and her solution was to get a PUPPY!?!?! Thank goodness they brought Victoria in in time before that happened.
Its the kind of impulsive people that think a puppy is cute but as soon as they grow up they are not interested in them anymore and need to replace them by another puppy..... Endless
@@tagadaki That hasn't to be something bad. They could foster puppys for a shelter. But I'm afraid that the needed work wouldn't be done in this special case.
It's like having a baby to "fix" something... what needs to be FIXED is that lack of responsible, compassionate, CRITICAL thought!!!😤
@@tagadaki My mother would do exactly this which is why I ended up with her dog but to be honest the dog chose me anyway so it all worked out lol.
@@tagadaki People can be like that about kids as well.
That's not a crate, it's a carrier! I am shook
That poor dog!
Exactly. An actual crate wouldn't be too bad
@@natalievu4399Agree
Some dogs prefer these style crates.
My first dog was a racing greyhound and it was her little den.
But Fiona clearly doesn't like
@@FIRING_BLIND cause she was being locked in it to much. Crates can be used as safety nets for dogs if they are used properly. My dogs crate became her safe haven and she would hang out in there on her own with the gate open. But it’s cause it’s used sparingly. Of course Fiona hates that crate with how much she’s locked in it
The silent look the mother has on her face when it's revealed wanting another puppy, is classical😅😊
Lots people think like that: dogs dont seem to "listen well"; hey, letsget a second one!!!😢
that tic in her eyelid 😅
@@ranmountyeah - I noticed that too!
Same look my aunt had when my cousin (who has a 5-year-old girl that my aunt does most of the caring for) told me with a straight face a few weeks ago she thought it was time her daughter had a sibling 🤦♀
Man, these owners. The mom is so patient. If I was her I'd make my daughter move out.
Mom's not patient, she made the previous dog mysteriously.....
i agree
Yeah the mom’s _not_ a good person, let’s not kid ourselves.
But how is they going get the dog to do right when the treats run out
People in this series keep being amazed about how a dog can change when you just care for the basic needs like walking and training 😅
Yes because most people in this series buy a dog without awareness... and should not get a dog in their homes.
@nicoledb341 . Yes, like most dog owners. They never think it through or research before getting a pup. I have a bichon who is now 2.5 years old and I thought it through and did my research for a year before getting my dog. I also taught her the basic commands from 4 months old and still do obedience training with her now but adding new commands! It's like having a human toddler they need discipline, obedience training, walking, etc. EVERY day and too many people who own a dog do not even fulfil these basic needs!
People thinking they can just not walk their dog, and that's not going to have a negative impact on it.
a huge issue also is buying a puppy instead of adopting a young dog that's already at least house trained.
For bichons it's attention. They live to please you
You outline the boundaries and how you want them to behave and satisfy their needs for exercise and play they won't be able to do enough to please. Very satisfying dogs.
I dont see much comments on the brother but I like him. I appreciate his honesty on the situation.
Love him 😂❤
LOVED seeing Mum's eyes LIGHT UP, when Fiona started to show her intelligence!!😍😍😍
You know a dog is incredibly smart when Victoria is blown away by them lol
Unbelievable! This young lady gets a pup, crates it all day in too small a crate, never walks it, doesn't train it, the dog is out of control... and she wants to add another to the mix of bad behaviour? She doesn't deserve to have a dog at all after all that. They were very lucky to have Victoria come to help them train the dog otherwise I'm sure the mother would have told her to take the dog and leave, and then the poor innocent pup would really have suffered.
Girl should have gotten a stuffed animal 🙄
It's not even a crate.. 😢
It’s not a crate. It’s a traveling carrier. My blood boils when I see people treat their pets that way.
I’ll take Fiona! She’d be so loved! Walked! Why do people get dogs when they don’t want them?😢
she liked the idea of having a dog, not the work involved of having one.
@@fruitpunch-mouth I guess I should have watched it all- I reacted early! Imagine that dog left in that carrier for 8 hours!! 😢. I think all was well at the end!
@@michelemcdermott75 yeah that is kinda like a cat carrier. when i imagine a crate, i see a large metal cage not a cat carrier. for vet trips.
@@fruitpunch-mouth exactly! That was no crate!
A jail "hole" cell, for a dog
I love how cute the mother is, she got all excited when the dog was doing what she was told.😄
The brother calling Jessica a bad mother, might come to realise Florence wasn't the best of mothers either. From what I learned from this video, she favoured her daughter over her son, and what kind of person takes the opportunity of their child being away to get rid of that child's beloved dog?!! That is just cruel.
Edit to say that my dad had this happen to him when he was six. His father died and then they took away my dad's dog. My dad is almost eighty, and he still talks about it. Pets play such an important role in a child's life. They are family to them, and a great comfort. It's an absolute cruelty to just take away a child's pet, especially when they're not around to say goodbye.
Ikr? That's awful. I couldn't imagine if I came home and my dog was gone.
And she didn't give a straight answer...
right? n even if she didn't actively get rid of Toby, it sounds like she did not at all handle it well. Did she comfort him? Why was he told like that?? if he was picked up, why wasn't he told *before* arriving home n calling out for his beloved dog? if Toby really ran away/got lost/was stolen - did she or others look for him? was he assured that Toby was being looked for?
@@denblakat9243 maybe she just left the door wide open and Toby ran free or she shut the door after he was outside...
@@nybsbfan18 I feel like that still leaves a lot of room for badly handling this, like, she should have tried to have had a serious conversation with him before he called out for his dog n was confused when the dog didn't come, which sort of makes it sound like she/they were hoping he wouldn't realise the dog was gone? She should have been aware that while she may have not have cared for the dog, her son did n his emotions should have been respected. From his story of finding out that his dog was gone, I do not blame him at all for having unresolved issues n fearing that his mother did get rid of his dog, even if it being an accident is, I'll admit, more likely
I’d have Fiona in a heartbeat. She’s so smart. She just never had training. Shoving her in that tiny crate was criminal in my view. Poor puppy. Thanks Victoria for helping them. ❤❤❤
When mother asked 7 days a week? Victoria's look on the face was classical 😂😂😂😅😅😊😊😊
Yeah she was like “Yeah, make like a gambler and deal with it.”
Bichon Frise look like living stuffed animals, but they’re extremely intelligent and energetic, and need to treated as such.
Anyone who says their dog is making their life a " Nightmare " clearly should not have a dog ! Fiona is a young, playful, normal dog who needs a owner who looks after their dogs needs , so sad seeing stories like this .
In fairness, the mother doesn't want the dog and **didn't** get one--the dog is her daughter's.
actually, not all dogs are suitable for every single home. a belgian malinois can be a nightmare for a low activity family, but a golden retriever would be perfect for that family.
@@zerodawn0994 this! I had to rehome my dog (and will not be getting another for a LONG time) due to his inability to be housed with other pets and his increasing aggression towards them. He also didn’t like children, and I at some point want children. He enjoys being alone and is infinitely happier being in a single-animal home.
That's not even the dog owner who said that! You're so eager to put someone down, you can't even pay attention properly.
L.p.@@zerodawn0994
What a fantastic episode this is! What a change for Fiona's life and for Florences's. Great work family and Victoria!
Agree.
Wow florance really stepped up with fiona, especially as she didn't really want the dog in the house. I hope florance & fiona can give each other company during the day .
justice for toby
@@mcfmcf4038😂😂😂What happened to Toby
I cant believe how smart Fiona is!!
And just so engaged. Her whole body was into those training sessions. Bless her.
Yeah partially because someone was giving her positive attention for once.
This family just needed direction. I'm glad they were all very open to the process. I'm sure Fiona is happy about that too. Well done family!
She couldn't even control her first dog and she was considering getting a second one? You shouldn’t get a second dog if you're not happy with the training of your first. Not to mention the fact that the other people living with her weren’t on board with it, so that's another reason not to get a second dog.
That's one smart little pupper ❤ I hope she keeps the training up and WALKS her 💜🐾💜
Give mom a polygraph. We need to know the truth about Toby😏
Those dogs learn fast. Really fast.
Just takes some time and patience.
That pup is hella smart
Aw Florence is so sweet, I love Florence ^_^
I'm not surprised she was so frustrated with fiona before
She _is not._ She gave her son’s dog away without his knowledge.
Man this was a really nice episode! I hope they keep with the training!
My greatest joy in life is walking my dog. Walk your dog, folks! It's the best! (Coincidentally, his favorite dogs we run into are Bichons!)
Yeah, if something or someone’s stressing me out at home, I’d just take my dog for a walk around the neighborhood. Why does everyone treat it as such an inconvenience
Id always seen this episode in bad clips... The whole episode makes the family look like good owners, and how bloody intelligent their dog is!
??? By the end maybe....but the daughter was absolutely neglecting her dog and her mom got rid of her son's dog previously.
Are we watching the same episode?
I agree, she reminds me of a working dog without a job. Incredibly quick learner.
Fiona is so clever! I've been trying the Out technique with my husky for 11 years and he's still not learned it 😂
😂
Bichon Frise are super intelligent, my dog is half
Dogs are so smart with the right owner. ❤
The mother is so adorable ❤
This was a classic case of people who don’t know how to raise a dog. They don’t just become good dogs on their own. But, fortunately, they did a good job once they learned. I hope Fiona and the family is still doing great!
We have a 1 year old Bichon and he is exhausting. But my husband takes Rocco on 3 walks a day during the week and sometimes more on the weekend. But I got so many amazing training tips from this video and I am excited to put them to use. Thank you for the video
After about four years they mature, become delightful pets. Easy to train and non destructive.
@@davidluesley9223 oh no that is a long time from now
LOL I take my 4 month old corgi on 4-5 40 minute walks a day... It truly is tiring. Dogs need love and exercise though and I still love my little corgi. Daycare is a lifesaver, once she gets her booster I'll put her there once or twice a week.
A walk is the best part of a dogs day.
Her mom is going to love the dog
Excellent job, Victoria! You tained the entire family!
I've seen small dogs that have worse behavior than that. I feel like it was a lot of training the humans rather than the dog in this one. Did you see how close to the edge of the counters they left food? They created the temptations. And it's pure laziness that she wouldn't walk her dog. And that crate! That was cruelty and just sheer laziness. The owner could have at least thought to put a gate up like that and then Fiona had the whole room at the very least and her toys. But the training, that's a smart pupper!
Exactly, you never use a carry crate to keep your dog in for long periods, you use a larger crate that the dog can move around and actually be comfortable. That was pure cruelty, and then never walking the poor pooch was even worse. I know why she didn't put up the baby gate, though, because she didn't want fiona to mess in her bedroom and destroy everything because that's exactly what would have happened. I'm so glad they got the help they needed.
My chihuahua had a carrier for a crate.
Difference is I didn't use it as a jail cell, I was just his happy quiet place he went in by choice to have peace.
they have a decent yard... why not idk put up a fence and let her go in the yard? at least in the yard she can run around, get some smells in, get to run around,be a dog and roll around and get her toys involved that is an awesome location.
Likely laws around fences and cost. Most places require permits to build a fence which is an extra cost on top of the fence.
It is never about the animal..It is always about the humans 😊
I have never wanted a Bichon Frise before, but I do now. Fiona is a sweetie-pie. This is the most successful training I have seen Victoria give.
They cannot be left alone. They are extremely attached to their owners. They require grooming every 4 weeks and DAILY maintenance. Two walks a day. Training. Are picky eaters. But by far one of the most intelligent and loving breeds who adore both other dogs and people. Bred for royal children. These owners clearly did zero research. I couldn't watch it all, they disgusted me at didn't walk her. I wanted to get a flight and rescue Fiona. Bichons are extremely special dogs.
I love the brother! 😀
10:58 Mom shooting daggers out her eyes 😂😂😂
Fiona - what a gorgeous & very bright little girl. So willing & clever. Sweet
Jessica doesn't get to cry, she did what she did and tears won't change that
I think Todd needs his own dog. He's still in his feelings about his childhood dog😢
Cute, smart little Pup 🐶 ❤
She doesn't walk the dog, she doesn't train the dog, she keeps her in her kennel for way too long on a DAILY basis...I just see red flags and someone who shouldn't own animals. That dog deserves someone who won't keep her kenneled for hours on end and someone who will actually walk the dog like it deserves.
What a smart little cookie Fiona is..such a good girl 💕
Well done family!!! Fiona is so smart. Happy life🐾❤️
wow fiona has heaps of energy I am so glad you helped them all with the training and what a difference it has made, especially to her mum ,nice to watch thanks Vicotria.😀
I can't wait to try some of these training ideas out with my pup :D
FIONA IS A BADASS!!!
Fiona is so abordable 🥰!! I cant.
What a smart little dog! I think mum even fell in love with her now!😊
That's a sweet dog that needed boundaries. Family is wholesome. :)
The crate was a last resort. Please girl it was your first buy lol
Such a sweet family and Fiona is so precious and intelligent. ❤
I think this is my favourite episode. Fiona is a wonderfully smart and adorable doggie.
Fiona is sooo smart! She learned every comand in a second!!! A shame they never took the time to train her before Victoria came
Bicho are wonderful Dogs 🐩 🐶
Aww Fiona is such a cute dog. I want a little doggie that looks like her😄
Fiona is smart and needs to get rid of the energy and so important by walks and dog courses and they are so smart ❤
That was a great episode ❤ Fiona is so cute and doing awesome 👍
They have that huge fenced yard and she doesn't at least let her out there?! What!?
I love how the little pup translated leave it into don't touch it and lay down lol she is so cute.
Fiona certainly has a sense of humor. Imagine she'd make a great agility dog
What a wholesome family. This is a rarity on this show I enjoyed this episode so much. The family loves each other so much and you can clearly tell!
She is so cute and adorable ❤
victoria is the best she always fixes everything i love her
Awe ... Fiona is just so so full of life❤
I think the mother's body language screams,' I got rid of Toby'. Watch her eyes and her nervous laugh.
25:47 sploot! Haha. I love when dogs do that. My dogs never sploot
what a great story, really enjoyed watching this :)
I think she lied about toby
@@kibabell haha yeah, probabaly right. Still a very sweet lady, i really got to like her x
I fell in love with Fiona, what a sweet and smart dog 😊❤🎉
The brother throwing cheap shots in when Jessica was getting a dressing down had me dying 😂😂 and oooooooh that silent stare the mother gave her about the topic of another puppy 😱😂
This is such a beautiful and calm family. I am glad they got the help needed to maintain a relaxed and pleasant experience living with Fiona.
I love how the mother first didn't wan't to connect at all with fiona... But in the end it was the other way😅
If Jessica's performance with her dog was a school report card, it would have grade F all over it.
Fiona reminds me of my Cavachon poo. So smart n such a good gurl! ❤
This is my favorite episode . Iv watched it several times
I don't understand why people choose to get a dog (and still want another dog) and don't walk them for days at a time. I think most dogs need multiple walks a day. My dog would go absolutely nuts if they didn't get walked for even one day
EVERY dog I know is walked at least 3 times a day. Most a fourth time before going to sleep just for peeing around the corner. In Germany you just KNOW that you cannot have a dog if you work or go to school full-time (or you pay people to walk the dog in the middle of the day).
Agreed they need 3-4 walks for sure and deserve it
The brother had me lmao!!
Very nice episode. In the eyes of the mother? - she is starting to love Fiona. So beautiful.
Victoria vous êtes une femme remarquable et beaucoup d’éducateur canins devraient prendre exemple sur vous. Moi même j’en suis une et j’aimerais beaucoup être formée par vous car on à jamais fini d’apprendre et beaucoup de formateurs ne sont pas aptes d’avoir ce titre. Vous êtes la meilleure de tous les temps. J’adore regarder vos vidéos
Dang, I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS YOU DO SUCH A GOOD JOB!
Fiona is so sweet! We had family farm dogs - aka, big, outdoor, keep the bear, moose and other animals off the yard kinda dogs - growing up. It was scoffed at and considered frivolity to have an indoor dog that “had no purpose”. I broke the mold at nearly age 50 and got my first puppy about a year ago, after spending almost 2 years researching what kind of dog would suit me, as well as how to train it and provide it the best care possible. I chose a Bichon Frise, and I LOVE her!!! She is extremely smart, fun, spunky, obedient, and an amazing cuddly companion. I never would have thought it possible for a dog to learn so many things in such short time, or to be so attuned to how I am feeling and she brings me so much joy. I am not healthy enough to work out of the house, and so I am at home almost all the time. There hasn’t been a time that she has been left in her crate yet, though I suppose there may come a time it is necessary. I would expect, though, that someone I love and trust would take over her care rather than me just leaving her alone. One thing that just astounds me about her is how much she simply adores me! I’m serious - she follows my every move, and I’m “her person.” She bases every decision she makes (minus a few very doggy-inspired instantaneous impulses here and there) on how she can illicit a pleasant response from me. I would be so sad to ever make her feel abandoned, even for a short time, and hope I never need to leave her alone and confused without a trusted person caring for her. It’s the very least I can do for her tender sweet puppy heart.
That's impressive! The crate is just a sleeping and treat spot for my dog. I do my best to spend all the time I can with her but I can't be at home 24/7. My corgi is extremely sassy sometimes
Crate training dogs is a good thing... if you fulfil their needs before you crate them.
This means exercise, poo and pee .... imagine holding your bladder for 8hrs during the day when you're wide awake. Geesh.
You mean like many people do every night when they sleep? Lol
@uteruspower1862 that 8 hrs doesnt include night time routine. That's during the day.
You are so amazing teach incredible things and techniques Victoria love you ❤
Fiona is an absolute joy! Also...whale camp is an island not a crate. It is a desired place to be, even for the biggest handfuls. Anyone ever hear of a little book called Lord of the Flies???
6-8 hours in that tiny carrier!😢 so glad that they decided to get help for Fiona
Flo - that dog is yours now!! Thank da Lord.
Jessica you are responsible for ur dog and take ur dog out for walks and feed and etc and clean up the poop and etc so important ❤
That was a very heartwarming episode!
that moment! 25:30! Such a good dog - mom opens her heart
Man, I hope those ladies listen to that guy, he seems to have about the most sense in that group. Learning about the crate was quite sad and I don't get why she thought another dog would be a good idea when she wasn't initially willing to walk the one she had, but his, "But sure, let's call the dog expert lady" I told you so moment was pretty great. I hope they stuck with the changes because they all deserve a better living situation than what they started out with especially that poor smart animated pup.
They've only got one dog and i can't believe they need help with her. Also it's common sense to not leave things out especially if they don't want the dog to have them, it's really that simple.
Fiona did amazing, it just takes a little attention and a lot of love and patience ❤ I was impressed by the bond that was formed with mom and Fiona ❤
