  • Good puppy training can simply be reduced to good information. Lots of new puppy owners struggle with the simplicity of this concept. If you don't allow your puppy to discover and rehearse the bad choices, they're left with only good choices to make. But how can you be sure that you're leaving your puppy with only good choices?

    I followed your videos for training my adopted puppy. I adopted him when he was 5 months. He is now 2 years old. The videos worked extremely well. Supervising the puppy to teach how to make good decisions was key for a good behaviour. He was definitely not destroying the house.
    However… the consequence in my specific case, of supervising him so well, and most of the time, was that after a few months that I finally stop working from home, he developed separation anxiety. I spent so much time with him, training him, supervising him etc, that he got too attached to me. I don’t regret all the good training. I just had to add a training process to get him through separation anxiety.
    I would suggest with my experience, to be mindful of having periods where your puppy also learn how to stay alone and calmed

      I agree. I got my puppy six months ago while I happened to be home most of the time and realized very quickly that training him to be alone was just as important as everything else. Bc I started early, he NEVER barks when we’re gone. And I mean never (we have a cam). He whines for about three minutes when we’re abt to leave sometimes but he settles so quickly and we’ve never come home to an accident not even once. His training isn’t done obv but he’s so well behaved considering his age and breed being predisposed to separation anxiety. Solo training is so important imo

Using a crate doesn't mean you don't train your dog to be left at home, it means that until your dog is well trained on appropriate behaviors you crate them when unable to be with them. Once those appropriate behaviors are well established than you can stop using the crate for increasing periods of time until you aren't having to crate them at all.

    100 percent agree with the crate training advice. You should never use the crate as a time out for bad behavior it never works. It's supposed to be their calm safe place, NOT A JAIL. I made this mistake as many others have.

    • @imnotmike
      @imnotmike Před 3 měsíci +7

      I use my dogs crate as a time out for bad behavior and it works very well. They love their crate, but they want to go in there on their own terms. They don't want to have to go in there because you tell them to. But they feel safe in their crate, so if you tell them to go in their crate, they don't feel scared or anxious.
      You have to teach them to go in their crate on command, and you have to teach them to wait in their crate with the door open, until you tell them they can come out.
      Once you've taught them these behaviors, go to your crate is one of the best training tools for a dog. It's perhaps the only negative reinforcement training technique that actually works, because they always feel safe in their crate, so you can give them negative reinforcement to correct bad behavior without activating their fight or flight instinct, which negates any training.

      @@imnotmike One of my dogs did this. He loved his crate and whenever we caught him doing something unpleasant we told him "go to crate" and he would listen. Sometimes he go there voluntarily after realizing his mistake. He would come out when we called him or he deemed it safe to do so. Aside from that he always liked staying in his crate because it made him feel safe. Though one time I spotted McDonald's ketchup packets and wrapper in there. Both my mom and I wondered where this all came from till we guessed that the people renovating our floors may have had lunch and left the lying about. Our dog may have taken them and stowed them away in his crate.

    My dog loved his crate so much through the almost 10 years we had him. He would go into it all the time when he wanted alone time. And when we took it away, he looked for it, even going to the extremes of pulling it back to where it "belonged". We just let him keep the crate in our living room. He was so happy to keep it. We never used the "house chain" with any dog we've had. my last was a super weird dog, he didn't want to be left alone without someone. But at the same time he was PERFECTLY FINE being left alone when for hours when we had to go out (no more than 5 hours). No separation anxiety or anything like some other dogs/breeds experience when they're kind of clingy.
    This is such good advice and it's something to keep in mind when getting a new puppy.

      And then I would be more firm. I didn't pull thru with my commands. I believed, it would be enough to show her my disappointment and my opinion.
      Now I know, dogs function differently....
      On the other hand, at the end she turnt out very well. Couldn't ask for a better dog, very gentle, social, caring, confident, not scared at all...love her!

      @@karlashmeedavlasta6365 thanks for all the advice! What's your reason for not recommending the crate? I keep hearing conflicting views about that...many say the dogs like it but they like the crate with a roof so it's dark like a cave, and others say crates are mean. Does it just depend on the dog's personality maybe? I'm so glad it all worked out for you and that you did a great job training and have a great dog! We want to get a puppy (for the first time) so I'm trying to get well-prepared to start things right! :)

    Wish I knew some of this when I got my puppy 5 months ago. The house line is a great idea. I use a metal playpen for my pup during the time I can’t watch him, which is a life saver.

    Thank you so much my baby is 7 weeks and I just got her last week and I’ve been finding so many helpful tools. We are crate training now, she has a playpen as well. She is progressing. Today I will apply the leash but but not a leash. I hope this works as well. Thank you!

    My dog is 8 years old and still has his crate. I never got rid of it, he loves going in on his own accord and just laying down. it was never discipline to be in there, it was only bed and I am leaving, it was his space. its been 5 years since i locked him in, but it still is there for him to go into when he wants.

      How did you train him so well and make the crate feel like a safe space? My 7 week old beagle hates the crate and keeps whining relentlessly.

    My boys love the crates, they also have 2 outdoors on the patio. They use them as safe space and quiet space that they choose, mabey they want to go have a nap or whatever. Door open they still like the space, its like their space.

    I like keeping an open crate even after the dog is mature. It comes in handy when a workman comes to the house, and when the dog is aged, a safe place to sleep

    PERFECT video!! It's too bad every dog owner doesn't see/listen to these words of wisdom-what a different world it would be!! So many puppy owners wouldn't give up when the going gets rough, and I'd be willing to bet dollars to dog donuts that shelters wouldn't be overflowing!! The average age of shelter dogs is that adolescent age between 1-2 yrs when the novelty has run out and their cute bundle of fur has grown and become a wild, destructive lil monster bc the average Joe just didn't understand how to go about proper training and communication from day 1.

    This seems like solid advice. I have a question in regards to barking for attention. My 7m/o gsd has recently found out how fun barking is. I have always ignored the behaviour and never reinforced it. I tried the techniques which involved removing yourself from the room whenever he barks at you. But don't find it very effective. He'll just do it again once we come back and settle in the livingroom again. It gets tiring fast opening and closing doors for more than a week everytime he wants your attention. I've now resorted to smashing two pot pans together and he seems to get the point for now,. If there are any other techniques I'll be willing to try them. The quiet command will just result into a situation where he will figure out: demand barking results in a command (quiet) followed by a treat. I am not saying the quiet command isn't effective for example when he barks at the doorbell. But for demand barking where he barks at you for attention is different.

    All dogs are different, just like all kids are different. What works with one dog may not work with another. I've never used a house line. All of my dogs have done just fine. I used crates and not used crates. Having a well mannered dog is just putting in the work and making sure everyone in the household is consistent with whatever training method is used.
