They can train her right there but the new owner needs to continue to discipline, show leadership and guidance in the new home otherwise she’ll make her own rules in a new space. She’s young and this was her first training lesson, she actually did really good once in the crate. She looks like a smart pup and will learn quickly! Best of luck in your new home smiley!
So true, I hate when people think their dogs out of control for no reason. Like even my dog if he is doing something I don’t like I think to myself what am I doing wrong and I do research to help fix it.
This just shows you how difficult it is for a rescue used to shelter life to adapt to living in a home environment and where the new owners don't give the dogs or cats enough time to decompress and learn the boundaries of living in a home..thats why there are sooo many returns saying they didn't 'fit in'..
People dont realize, when you adopt a pup and take them into yr home, they are going from a cage/ kennel into a home environment. Training is key. God Bless you all for doing the traini g🥰
2 years later and that baby bump is now a 2-year-old and Luke looks so different now in the new (and alas, final) season.
Have to remember things are filmed a yr or more in advance
I hope Smiley's adoption went well! WOOF! 🐶💝
That Ah Ah sound is very effective. I did that when my toddler was running out of a shop, and 3 adults all froze 😂.
Some rescue dogs who get adopted have no experience at living in a house with people.
I do think we need to start from scratch exactly as we would with a new puppy. No expectations, a lot of guidance, treats and patience and of course a lot of love❣️ Crates can be used for some dogs, but certainly not for All. To get the dog more focused and less stressed having the dog search for his food or a favourite toy is stimulating - as long as it's not a squeaky toy or a ball that you throw. So lots of solutions to a dog's natural behaviour to a brand new situation.
This new situation is a happy thing for the rescuers, but for the dog it may be very different at first when everything and everybody is completely unknown to him. Some dogs run on pure adrenaline, as some of us do, when we find ourselves in brand new situations.
When the new family member starts to settle in, he'll blossom like a beautiful flower and that is incredible to experience❣️
You guys are absolutely amazing! The work done to save the dogs and prepare them for their new homes is so special and goes a very long way to ensure they stay with their adopters for life. God bless all Villalobos does for these lovely creatures 💕
It's got
to be so hard for a dog to control themselves when they are around good food .. I mean we have a hard time with smelling and waiting ten minutes and we are adult humans .. poor sweet baby
Smiley is so gorgeous.
She just needs love.
I didn't let my dog
In the kitchen.
I got a door gate.
I would spend
A lot of time with
Him.
🐶💜
Maybe its just me but I honestly think her family motivation far supercedes her food motivation 💚💚💚 if you watch the video back (as you said yourself hun) she wasnt trying to get anything off the counter she was trying to see what was there... bc that's where they boys had just focused their energy in a very positive fashion... an energy she had been a part of mere moments before
Also likely why the treat didn't distract her... once crated she'd been cut off from family time and she settled quick ... but she didn't stay laying down ... she sat up and watched.. not a drop of drool... she was watching the interaction but wasn't sniffing the air looking for smells.
Lol I watched it back 3x myself... once to make sure what I'd noticed and twice more bc it was so dang adorable... 💚🫂💚
Mad love and sooooo much respect for all you guys do!!!
These clips have become my happy thought before bed each morning.. they're a much needed kick in the butt at times too... if they don't give up the least I can do each afternoon when I get up is try again too lol!
I may have given my girls a roof but when things got wonky for a bit and we spent some months not having a play I was always awed by them bc they didn't care where we were as long as it was together lol... they made it feel like home no matter where we were 💚💚💚
We have 6 dogs. They are sometimes underfoot during cooking, and prep, but we also make their treats in the kitchen. They know OUR food is OURS, but love it when we share, after we have eaten. Food fixation is a different problem that an opportunistic beggar. We do not feed them from the table EVER. ALL “ shared food” is divided up for all 6 dogs, so, sometimes it’s just a bite each, sometimes more. We have one severely under weight dog, and her extra protein snacks are given away from from the others. All 6 share a single large kibble bowl, and several water bowls. I’ve had both dogs and cats that were food fixated, usually from not getting enough to eat, or not having regular feeding times. Sometimes, it took months to reassure them that food would always be available, in quantities to satisfy them.
What an awesome family
I love your show! I love to see the passion you have for rescuing and caring for the dogs, and especially when they are sick. It breaks my heart. Currently we have a Boxer pit bull mix and we just found out she has a tumor it breaks our❤ because we have had her since she was a pup. We may have to put her down because she is in a lot of pain and suffering and the vet told us the tumor is threatening her life. It cuts like a knife! It’s gonna really devastate us when she leaves us😢😢😢😢😢
Lov the dog hill learn persistence n patience number one but more lov how you guys eat at the table my pops always made sure of that lov what you guys stand for from Toronto ❤️🇨🇦 Migwech 🙂
Bless you for all the good work you do for our precious fur babies!! You all are the best thank you so much God Bless You!!
My dog would often bark until we gave him table scraps. Sure do miss him.
Time and hard work she will get better. She has never had training.
This family is not the right fit for this dog, she deserves to be with someone who is willing to put in the time and effort to train her and play with her and show her love.
If you listened to what they said, when an adopter has chosen a dog, they go into foster with one of the Villalobos crew to get used to being in a home. This is her foster home, not her forever home
You are amazing..and please keep working with her potential adopters..hopefully, they’ll be patient with her…😕❤️❤️
Might’ve done better in the first half if she was taught “off” or “down” first instead of expecting her to know the command or trying to train her while also training her to settle in a working kitchen.
2:33 I don't blame her she's like me whenever my mom makes chow mein
You seem like a wonderful animal lover I agree with you about feeding your dog when you eat
Been watching this show since the beginning , so bummed they moved to a new channel that we don't have
Ah bless her she is a lovely dog should of fed her the same time when they are eating
That dog has a unique mix.
Maybe they should start by walking her for a couple miles first and let her explore the house more instead of worrying about what she is doing wrong. If you adopted a Pit and are more concerned with the counter tops maybe you got the wrong breed.They are curious and playful and athletic. Not house dogs.
Her new owner was a professional chef and she was young not ever really being in the house. You saw a few minute clip. They actually keep the dogs and train them in home situations for awhile you are just seeing one part of that
My dog doesn’t jump on the counters but she likes to lay on my feet while I cook
Yes dogs pent up with energy and anxious lock it in the cage.
Get a rug that's only hers,put her water dish there and bones toys and have her sit there,give treat every time she stays.if she moves place her there again when she stays give treat, start slowly increasing the time
That's a good idea for transitioning the dog out of the crate! When they would like to have the dog out while they are eating
My dogs have been trained to lie down when I eat. They do this automatically. I eat first, then they eat second.
Wow. How selfish are you??? I would never in a million years make any hungry animal lay on the floor and watch me eat while their stomach is growling. All of mine eat first. Always before me. I guess growing up on a farm and feeding all animals first instills good ethics morals and values. You should check yours
@@farmgirl9888 I totally agree with you it is selfish and I would never leave my pups starving while I'm eating that's horrible I always feed them before me that way there not hungry its awful and screamz no education 😢 💔 😔 😞 😕
@@XxMariposa13xX the way a person treats an animal says a lot about their character
@@farmgirl9888 I agree my dogs are my kids and I never have them wait until I'm done eating and then feed them that's wrong I feed them first that way there not hungry when I'm eating.some people shouldn't have pets .
@@XxMariposa13xX my thoughts exactly. Their family.
Why are they speaking like this is the end of the world and a huge problem? This is not abnormal behavior for a young pup. It's not just a shelter dog thing, it's an EVERY dog thing. No pup is born automatically knowing house manners and rules, you have to teach them how to behave. This is very basic stuff.
Maybe you should tell them to feed her at the same time you eat too. Less stress for her. She doesn't understand why she's not eating
Realistically that wouldn't work unfortunately. If the dog can't handle being around food and not eating it, good luck trying to take that dog to a park. The dog needs to be taught or understand what to do when food/smells are around so it isn't overestimating and stressful to the dog
@@Gabby-jq4ii realistically it does work. I've had dogs for over 40 yrs.
@@farmgirl9888 In my opinion for a general scenario, if the dog was stressed and couldn't handle being around food/not know what to do and not eat it and you took her to a park , that way wouldn't work as well. (Feed the dog when others or you eat) It could work when you are at home, she could counter surf after she finishes tho.
@@Gabby-jq4ii if I was to take my dog to a park she would be there to play. If we were going to eat there I would bring her chicken with me. My dogs have never begged or counter surfed. As far as the stress, so many dogs are being diagnosed with anxiety and depression. Sad. Figure out the triggers and work through it with them.
@@farmgirl9888 it is sad. I'm glad that your dog doesnt do those things. While i understand your view, like I said my opinion on this was for a general scenario, like this dog would be stressed if they had gone to a park and had to walk by people eating. The dog would probably have to be pulled away ect. because she would probably thing going to get food would be best, but it's not. Anyway have a nice day.
when is pit bulls and parolees coming back
💜
I would train my cat or dog that when I eat they never eat! So they know that there is no food from the table or when I eat or cook
I get my food started then feed the animals. They are completely disinterested in my food once they eat.
with a pit, you have to show them that you are the Alpha and their master right from the start.If you can't dominate them then you should not have one
Never seen a dog in a crate in my country. Not that there are any ferral dogs either. This is all weird to me.
Ok j l saw it too. she gave the dog 3 commands at once . then shoved her/him. in the crate. so not impressed. she needs some training too lol
TIAAAAA !!!!
Oh for goodness sake. Wouldn’t you just put the dog out until you finished cooking and eating. Instead of making a big deal out if it while the poor puppy was smelling food cooking and watching the family eating. That’s a cruelty.
I didn't let our dog in the kitchen . She should of fed the dog when they ate . Never had a crate for any dog that I ever had.
You want to always feed the dog after they see you eat. Not before
I have never seen these crates in anyones home in my country. People would never do this here. It would break my heart to put my dogs in such a prison.
I agree 1000%
Dogs see crates as their bed room. My dog loves to go and sleep in it even if I haven't put her in it as the door is always open. If i mave her crate, she wants to know where its going cause thats her bed. It's their own space to retreat to. Dogs dont understand "prison" and most dogs that dont like crates/kennels have either not been introduced to it for long (new places can take time), they haven't been introduced to it the right way, or have separation anxiety which isnt good for the dog. Please stop villlianizing good things for dogs.
I find in America they do crate their dogs 🤷🏻♀️ which is really weird to me, I am from Australia and have never seen this anywhere else. My dog sits on one of her many beds when we eat 😊
I had a very large old English bulldog. She was ‘crate trained’.
Despite the crate rarely being used. She knew what ‘cage’ meant. When told to ‘cage’ she’d go and lay down in her cage (without having to close the gate).
But we didn’t use it as punishment, more as a safe place that was hers. Which was hilarious to see her distress when 1 of my sons would go lay in her cage. But she’d also get jealous if the boys wore her collar🤦♂️. But that always just turned into a huge play. Kid in the cage? Suddenly there’d be a kid AND a dog in the cage. Giggling from the kid and silly tail stump wiggling from the dog as the took turns laying on each other (mock wrestling). She was even clever enough, when the boy was in the cage, that she’d nose the gate closed and smugly sit in front of the gate! Trapping the boy in the cage. She was extremely proud of herself when she trapped a boy. 😂
I think M 2 should have first given the puppy Smiley some of they're food. That's was very insensitive. And, shouldn't have kept the poor puppy in the crate especially she was crying. I'm sorry that was very heartless of M 2. The puppy calmed down anyway. She should have been more patient and loving with the puppy. How would M 2 like someone to lock her in a cage only because she acted out of curiosity and was just being a typical puppy?
Considering how much the dog liked being in the crate? I think M2 would be fine. The dog doesn't understand someone being "insensitive." Because the puppy was acting like a typical puppy, aka no manners it's OK for them to show a different way. To wait and be calm or settle around food. Could she have done better sure. But having the dog be in the crate to just be and not have so many choices and ways to make the wrong one/not be taught the right way + stress them out because some think it's mean to have them be in a crate, is way to much for the dog.
I don't think she should have given some of their food to smiley... that is actually very dumb of u to say lol
That would actually affirm this kind of behavior (jumping on the counter) as a good thing and that's is not something u want ur dog to do.
Another thing is Smiley could start to think that the food they eat is also for her to eat... and that's nor right. It could start other bad behaviors like stealing the food and etc.
Dogs are not humans and treating them as such can cause very behavioral issues on them. It's not insensitive to not give the dog their food it's actually the right thing to do! This kind of behavior should not be encouraged.
C'mon decompress .. she just wants some eggs .. it's not rocket science
Hi, I recently commented on how inhumane M 2 was with this precious puppy Smiley. Mariah is not an authority or experienced dog trainer. She had no right time put Smiley 🤣 n her crate for just being a curious puppy. I think Tia, needs to seriously put M 2 in her place. The puppy had never been in a home before and like any puppy or full grown dog she smelled the food and wanted some. She should have definitely given the puppy some eggs to taste. Right away she called Lizzy the complain about Smiley. Even Lizzie was surprised. M 2 needs to grow up and be taught how to treat and train animals. I was very opposed to how she treated this poor puppy. And I ve received comments from viewers agreeing with me.
To typo
How do we reach you to send you comments?
Inhumane!?! How dramatic. The dogs they get are treated Inhumananly. You don't give a dog what ever they want when they want it. Imagine they take to dog to a park and someone is having a picnic. It'll stress the dog out because your telling her no or she breaks free of you and ruins someone's picnic. Putting the dog in the crate simply allows her to calm down and de stress because she doesn't have to be put in the situation where she doesn't know what to do/thinks the choice she is making is the right one and being prevented. Could this "training session" gone better? Yes but they were just seeing where the dog was at
*THAT WAS RUDE*
A can’t stand these “crates” they’re cages and animals don’t belong in cages
Did you not even watch? My girl was calmed by having a den.
@@amandatheredhead yes I watched the video and I know you are obviously a caring person who’s trying to help the dog but I just cannot stand dog cages.
@Lynby there are benefits to crating a dog. SOME (not all) dogs with anxiety feel safe in a crate and calm down that way. It also teaches a dog that crates aren’t a bad thing making it easier for when you have to put them in a carrier for airplane, or car trips (yes, I know that there are dog seat belts for cars, & some airlines let a well trained dog roam on the plane after take off, but there are different rules and/or bylaws for airlines, states/provinces & cities/towns). If a dog has never seen a crate before this may cause a dog to get anxious and therefore not be able to travel with their human. As for housetraining & potty training a dog some dogs seem to pick up training better with the use of a crate, while other dogs don’t need it. Every dog is different & you also have to take in the fact that Smiley is a rescue. All he mostly knows is life as an outdoor kennel dog. Which is probably why Smiley settled down in the crate so quickly when the leash tactic wasn’t working. He was probably reacting the way he was not just because he was curious, and excited, but there might’ve been some stress in there to because he was in a new environment. The crate mimicked the kennel he had been living in so he felt safe & calmed down. Anyways… just a long way of saying that not all things that seem horrid are 🙂
@@hallykat6402 exactly! I use a crate when I leave the house for short periods and my boy gets in of his own free will. It's never used for punishment, I'll say "into bed " and he's straight in or if he sees cues that I'm getting ready to go out, he'll be waiting in there already. Crates should only be used as a safe place for dogs, never punishment. But, each to their own.
@@hallykat6402 they may feel safe in a crate sure but why don’t they feel safe out of it? Mine use there bed for the same comfort? With crates many I see are far too small and some are in them for hours or all day while the owner works. Baby gates work just as well for me and as the other person said they are a rarity in the Uk and many other countries. It’s cultural I suppose but they do seem a bit much. We just believe in training over locking up.

Pitbulls SUCK
You’ve obviously never owned a Pitbull. I’d never own another breed. They’re smart, loving, funny and loyal.
