As much as I wish I had sent my dog to Brandon for training before bringing him home czcams.com/users/postUgkx1_veP7CApJK_GWy_TczaMciuG64PqJeU I am so grateful for this down-to-earth, practical guide. His training techniques and tips really work. Thank you as well for dedicating your life's work to rescue dogs, and to rescuing those of us who want the very best for our 4-legged family members.
I love that y’all are so transparent and showing the reality of training dogs. It makes regular people like me who aren’t dog trainers (though I try to follow all your advice from your videos) not feel as inadequate; even professionals like you and Bree struggle too. It’s relatable and authentic.
Oh Zak I'm a bit offended that you didn't take your own advice, but had me taking numerous lengthy trips outside in all sort of weather this past winter with my puppy. Torrential rain, wind, snow, ice and sub arctic temperatures. Standing outside for 20 plus minutes waiting for her to realize the wind blowing tarps in the dark wasn't going to hurt her, as my hands froze for her to do nothing and have to repeat the process 5 minutes later because I knew she really had to go! But we had zero accidents, you said they have to learn to go out in all weather, take your own advice good luck with Veronica and small "project". We'll be waiting for you in the north east! 😂🐾
We removed all rugs and as our puppy moved in in May (and we live in England), we could leave the back door open and she went out with our other dogs. She pretty much trained herself.
I love your videos, so educational. I just wish theses ones were a bit longer, I liked when some of the ones with Kona were 30/40 minutes long
I love that crate you have for biscuits! I’d like to see a series where you go through all of this training with an older rescue dog. Like a dog that’s like 2-5 yrs old.
I bought that crate for my puppy. It’s a Diggs Revol. It does lots of tricks a regular crate only dreams about.
He’s done this in the past, three times. The dogs were Moira the German Shepard, George the Pit mix, and Chop a wild Alaskan dog. They are all on his channel.
Support me too i also upload very cute videos😢if u don't like it then unsubscribe me but plz give me one chance🐕🐕
Zak, while not my first I had a new home with a German Shepherd puppy that was often unable to hold it AND let me know in time... your Puppy Program and Pupford treats was like flipping a switch. 25yrs between puppies, I needed to relearn some basics.
(Not done with the vid yet but) Zak putting “dog” in quotations and the hype about her DNA makes me wonder if she’s got like wolf content in her or something crazy haha.
Support me too i also upload very cute videos😢if u don't like it then unsubscribe me but plz give me one chance🐕🐕
"How did a West Highland White Terrier end up in an Alaskan village?"
*nods in agreement at good question while my Korean Jindo plays at my feet here on the Gulf Coast*
Thanks for the content Zak and Bree!
learned a lot from your channel! Practicing your methods on my puppies. It's working!!!
HUGE Thanks for your honesty Zak! Makes me feel more human in raising my puppy! Definitely going to Pupford for chews!!!! Right in the middle of teething stage and my arm is still the goal😅
Bree you were hilarious at the end🤣
I swear zac I have 2 weeks with my
Puppy I started watching your videos when I started looking for a pup . I learned everything from how to pick the perfect temperament pup to thatching tricks . Within 2 weeks my puppy is practically fully house broken, he sits, he spins, he lays down and he’s only 11 weeks old meaning I began when he was 9 weeks . Today we will start learning shake wish me luck ! Thank you so much Zac for helping me as much as you have
Love your information and series. Would love to see more on teaching a dog to leave it. My puppy is a year and we still struggle with that a bit. Thank you so much for all you teach. It has helped me so much.
It was so funny to see Zak and Inertia trying to steal each other's food :-). This episode was great. I love the honesty. It's really helpful to see training mistakes because most of us are amateur trainers and make all kinds of mistakes. Having you be open about them and talking about what went wrong and how to fix it is much more valuable than seeing perfect training sessions, because in the average home, those are probably not so common.
Just received the Pupford tendon chews and my dog LOVES them! They last a really long time and are considered a top tier treat for sure - I will never be without them again! Thanks for another great recommendation, Zak!!!
Ooh how exciting.. can't wait to see what is coming next!!! Xxx
The the honesty. I want to be you when I grow up. I just rescued a dog from a human society and I love him. And I have trained him so much because of you!
Hi ya Zac, from Australia. Love ya work! I have learnt a lot from your videos. Thank you for all your free content. My 11 week old Toy Poodle had a regression with pottying as I expanded her indoor area to include the kitchen. She has been trained on grass & fake grass on a tray. When she has an accident inside she is super quick & I can be right 'there' & it's all over by the time I bend down to pick her up. Tricky.......Thanks again.
Very impressed with you and your series. We just adopted an Australian Shepherd puppy. She's 11 weeks now. Potty training is.... frustrating as you well know. Thanks for the guidance and support, it means a lot!
I appreciate your honesty in this video. I’ve been following ur videos while training our Min Pin and we had a couple set backs…consistency and watching for the signs were our downfalls. Nice to know we are all human lol 😊
Wow, a seeing how you failed video was INVALUABLE. It was a clear demonstration of the value of the "right" way to do it and avoid the problems you showed. You can read about problems and it doesn't make much impact, but when you SEE the problems it becomes clear. Extremely valuable. Thanks.
So excited to see what’s next!
Hey! Zak & Bree! Love your videos & methods. Your patience and understanding are AWESOME. My pups are just 10 week old, Miniature Poodles. Here's a thought for a video (One I NEED and would surely Love) When we went to get our new puppy (after 8 months mourning our 16 years old Mini Poodle's passing) I just soaked up so much puppy wonderfulness....we came home with 2! I was thinking how much easier it would be for them sleeping together, adjusting to us together, how they would comfort one another. etc! Totally forgetting how completely EXHAUSTING to is keeping up with 2 high energy babies, and all the broken sleep for 2 senior parents! Any duel pup households would really, REALLY, benefit from some tips & pointers, our babies would benefit the most. Can't wait for the teething chews you suggested to arrive. Did you say MONTHS for house breaking to last??? OMG!!
Zak I'm sat watching this with a sleeping 11 week old puppy in my arm after having had an afternoon nap with him spooning with me, and I was relieved to see I'm not doing something terrible for the dog! Biscuits looks so cosy snuggled in with you. I think puppies are such a gift, they're only puppies like that for a few months, best to enjoy it while we can! Love your videos, they've helped us massively!
Support me too i also upload very cute videos😢if u don't like it then unsubscribe me but plz give me one chance🐕🐕
We have adopted a rescue puppy, and he's had a terrible UTI, which is unusual. It's made potty training challenging, which is understandable. Your video made us feel better, and it was encouraging to see a dog training family struggle and reevaluate. It's honestly fantastic to see dog trainers be authentic.
Keep training rescue dogs and help more of them get adopted!
I'm excited, maybe Brea training Veronica?! I'm following on all platforms so I don't miss a thing in training my two puppies and over 200 youtube videos watched here making my way through them all possibly
Biscuits was quite the treat.
A 3 month old male Australian Shepherd puppy just joined my family. He had lived outside and the breeder said the parents were AKC registered. I met the parents, both appeared in good health. My new puppy had not seen a vet and had been treated once for worms. So took him to the vet as soon as her office opened. Got first set of vaccinations, 3 days of de-worming treatment and heart-worm and flea treatment. The little guy was a little sick, but as the de-worming progressed, he is doing much much better. The first day, it was like he was already house broken. Now we are having a few accidents, but that's to be expected.
Zak, I have watched about 20 of your videos and ordered the books. I did that before getting our new addition, Remi. Remi and I are using your methods and it has really helped us. Thank you! He really loves the freeze-dried chicken treats too. I have a new shadow and his name is Remi!
Hi zak again brilliant video wow I'm shocked of biscuits breed combination brilliant video as always
I was so happy when I heard Lhasa Apso (my Lokhi is a Lhasa). Lil Biscuit is such a cute supermutt.
We did an embark test on our shelter dog because he was such a mystery. His coat is brindle and he is the size of a large chihuahua with a short smooth coat weighing in at 20#. His makeup is 50% chihuahua, 30% Pomeranian, 10% Lhasa Ahpso, 9% cocker spaniel and 1% wolf! And, he swims like a lab!
One of our pound puppies sounds similar to yours! He's 18lbs, brindled, and you can kind of see some chihuahua in him, but sometimes looks like a miniature boxer. His brother (from the same litter) weighs about the same, but is shorter and stockier, and reminds me of a pug-mix. Their mother looked like a yorkie. I've been debating dna tests on the two of them, sounds like it might be a good idea!
Thank you! This was great!
It was like 2 years ago when I subscribed your dog was still a puppy. I forgot her name but the black and white dog that was first shown In the beginning of the video
It's has been a long time Zak. And your videos are never worn out keep it coming man
Charming video!
I discovered that we seem to be more tolerant of negative behaviors, such as potting in the house, with small dogs than we are with larger dogs. Biscuits was a very small dog compared with the others you have been training, so I get that you allowed her more freedom.
Thank u guys
Thank you so much for all your videos. We will get a golden retriever in July and we are trying to figure out what is the best aproach to teach our new puppy certain things because we are aware that it is going ti be a learning curve for both the puppy and us. I dont know if you have a video on it but please make or share a video about best puppy and dog toys, foods, snacks… things that new owners will need etc. Advice coming from you would be highly appreciated on all matters :)
Pupbox!!
I love the segment of Zak and Inertia eating together. 😍 Darn! I ruined my record. I was way off regarding Biscuit's breeds. I guess I'm not so good at guessing with puppies. Older pups are much easier. 😄
Zak ate dog food 😂. Love your videos. I like to watch them while im in school to be a certified Dog trainer it helps me be able to see things instead of reading them. Thanks 😊
Hi Zak George! I’m super excited to see what you have in store!
(Wow first?)
Wooo! I got the chihuahua part right!
Staying tuned for the adventures of Zak, Brea, Inertia and Veronica full time rving.
They are so short nowadays. The biscuits ones were really short and never concluded. Did she find a home???
@@melissastruxness512 Yes! You apparently missed a video.
@@drudewitt wow I need to go back and find it? Thought I watched them all. Thanks
Ah Biscuits was so adorable. Don't blame you Zak for letting her sleep with you.
Also potty training in bad weather is the worst! 🥶
Loved this. I have bought your book. I have a 6 month old puppy. I think she is part Epangneul Breton, part border collie .Do you know that breed ? Love your videos so much, thank you xx
I love the channel and I am so far being able to successfully train my puppy, but one thing that is absolutely non-negotiable for me is that my dog will definitely sleep with me on my bed 😂
Curious if you considered taking the rug up as it seems most of her accidents were on it and more and more breeders and refuse are using washable/reusable pee pads that are similar in feel to carpet/rugs. Also hard floor is so much easier to clean and get the scent out of them carpet.
Hey Zak and Bree, I have a question unrelated to the video. I was wondering if you ever used target training, I couldn't find any videos of you using or explaining the concept, you seem to mostly rely on luring. I was wondering if there's a reason for this or if it's just a personal preference?
I'm getting a puppy in 1.5 months and I like the idea of transitioning the target training into "come when called" to have the dog always touch me when I call it. Is this a good idea, or might this be demanding too much of the dog in the long run?
It would be interesting to see you make a video on this since it's about the only training concept I haven't been able to find you talking about. Love your vids, I watched all of your recent series in preparation for my pup and they've helped me tremendously in brushing up on my training skills so thank you both for all that free content. I may or may not have cried just as much as you when you dropped off a certain George. I'm not saying there were paper towels involved but there were paper towels involved.
This a good video
Good info! Thanks for the help. I do have to say that the emptiness/cleanliness of your kitchen freaks me out. Do you not have any food there?
Hi love ur videos! Here is a thought for you.. I have 3 new pups.. 2 came from a breeder who used concert as a nursery and never went outside in the yard to play. They pooped, ate and slept all in the same area till sold...potty training was very difficult! They would not eliminate on the grass at all! They went number 1 & 2 on my driveway! It took me 5 months to potty train them...
1 puppy came from a breeder who was raised in their home and taken outside as a puppy everyday to play and to eliminate at a very young age..it only took me 2 weeks to potty train this puppy! Wow what a big difference... what are ur thoughts? I belive puppies raised in a nursery without an outside inviroment till sold has a very strong impact on their potty training difficulties.
I adopted a puppy from a rescue who told me she was a dachshund mix. DNA results were she is a Catahoula leopard dog who has a grand parent who was chihuahua! They shilled her from Texas to NY state and when we picked her up she had a raging UTI. The potty training was a nightmare!
Oh poor baby
Glad you got her situated!
Hi! Do you have biscuits' family tree (breeds)? I love that
Do you have a link to the treat bag leash holder you wear during training periods?
Ok 😂 I must start over. Thankfully our Golden Doodle is only 8 1/2 weeks old.
Can you give us an update on how Biscuits is doing?
We adopted a pup several weeks ago. She’s Maltese, poodle And soft coated wheaten terrier (dna test). We’ve watched all your videos on puppy biting. I cannot get her to stop biting! She bites and tears making my arms bleed several times a day. When she’s playing in the yard she will run, jump up and bite into my legs. She spends most of her awake time biting, snapping and growling. I’ve tried everything you’ve suggested; nothing works. Any other ideas? I have to be completely covered anytime I’m around her to not bleed and even then those teeth go through. She’s another two weeks from formal puppy training class (because of vac status).
Do you have a video of how to potty train a dog indoors? We have two 3 and 4 lb yorkies and I want them to have the option to go indoors.
Where can I get a small crate like that one that you have?
Tips for Yorkies adult dogs and potty training. I tried a pad, and they started peeing on anything that was on the floor.
😄 I was sure about the German Shepherd and Chihuahua , but the other breeds are pretty surprising .
Haha, me too! It's surprising how often German Shepherds find their way into small mixed breeds! 😆
@@NyreeAlana 😄 True !
Hello what ecollars do you recommend
I don't even feel a little bad for you about potty training :P I'm in Michigan and we brought our puppy home on the coldest day of winter, temps were hitting as low as -10 to -20 F and this dog went every minutes. We had alarms running so we could be consistent and sometimes he wouldn't even make it to 10 minutes. Vet said nothing wrong and all my previous dogs potty trained in 1-2 weeks so I felt falsely confident. It was a very cold winter and he couldn't hold it past 30 minutes until 5 months and took until 6 months to be reliably what I would consider potty trained. We tried everything even our vet was totally stumped. (Bissel's spotbot kept us from wanting to strangle his cute puppy self)
Yes after our puppy spent two nights at pet boarding she had two poop accidents in the house
Early!
Did biscuits have issues with picky eating and/or food intolerance? If yes, how did you get her to accept food as a reward?
I have a 3 month old German Shepard, husky, lab. At night he’s amazing not a single accident. Clearly where we got him did not spend anytime on potty training. He will not go in front of us and I have him outside for hours at a time. We have 4 kids so I can’t always have him on a leash but he will only go to the bathroom inside, I pull him outside every time I catch him but he’s just not getting it.. any tips? He’s also super stealthy he’ll be on his leash and I won’t here him pee until there’s a puddle.
Hi
Where did you get your dog ?crate
I've rehomed a 12-week old Frenchie for 2 weeks now, and the biggest challenge I have with him is going potty. I wait for him for 3-4 hours to do his business, and as soon as I put him in his crate, he either pees or poops 😂
I've tried putting him in then letting him out but he just lies on the floor. Anyone know what to do? Should I wait much longer?
Is it okay to leave the dog inside the create all day long while we are at work?
I need help! My dog is great at potting outside but my dog will have a a normal/ big amount of poop outside then when we come inside he’ll poop again. Any suggestions?
Ok this is my situation & yes, I think the leash is where I need to go. Wayyyyyyy too much freedom bc my house is just too big
And yes we failed w overnight crating too
Lock or not lock crate at night ??
My boxer pup is having trouble potty training. We go days of great behavior then the last two days he is going inside again. He is 16 weeks old. He is having accidents inside even though the back door is open and he has access to the yard. Any advice?
I need help my puppy keeps biting my older Yorkie...I love my puppy but if he don't stop attacking my Yorkie I may have to get rid of my dog
My puppy is 3 1/2 months old. We have the potty training under control, but he eats his poop. Now he hides under the hedge so I don't take it from him. What to do?
Puppy playpens are useful.
Mind you at times when Marzieh was young, I sat in the playpen with my easel (I am an artist)
Nike Cotton Shoes
The German shepherd was shocking!
I use umbilical cord training with puppies as often as possible & accidents inside are always minimal
you mean paracord as umbilical cord is the thing babies have to feed them is mothers tummy
@@maiza2380 I mean what I said, you call it whatever the hell you want. 🙄
when i saw her in the first video my mind immediately went "german shepherd" and i couldnt understand why lol
Early gang 😎😎😎
Awh yeah get those engagement credits
I WILL NEVER GET ANOTHER WINTER PUPPY. He was fully potty trained by 12 weeks but it was the worst going out in the freezing temps every hour for 15 minutes at a time
German shepherd did not surprising, as her gremlin side was very very working line German shepherd
Zak, PLEASE PIN the LINK YOU PROMISED FOR THE EMBARK discount. I looked for it on your channel page. Please "Fetch" it for us.
COLD WEATHER TIP
from a MINNESOTAN: Keep a down coat or jacket and hat with gloves in pockets by the door. Treats can be in pocket too. Grab it when you grab the leash. With warm enough clothing, we managed nightly 1 hour walks at 0 -15° with our Aussie. You were cold outside because you were dressed for winter in SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA! 😄😆😅
Check the description of the video.
I am hoping someone can help me, i just got a puppy, 5 month old but not been trained. Only wants to go inside. Even is i walked a long way each hour he holds it up, and does it indoors...what can i do?
I just got a newly rehomed dog I’m trying to figure out how I can teach him to not pee and poop outside I took him for a walk but he just won’t go outside
We have a new puppy, she's officially 5 months old, and she picks up on all new trainings so easily and quickly. But potty training has been the worse. She is too smart for her own good. She does go outside. But when she is mad at us, she deliberately goes inside, when she does see a pad that has one pee spot, she refuses to use it and goes next to the pad instead. Training her has been soooo frustrating. She's training to be a service dog so I need her to learn to not go in the house. I know it may take another 5 months before she's remotely near trained. Which is normal. Trying to get the whole house on hand to take her out every hour to two hours and if she doesn't go, come in for no more than 5 -10 minutes, bring her back out. I want to eventually train them to use a "potty chair" or pee pad in the bathroom for when I can't get them out, due to my disability. This video kind of does help. Thank you
We had our dog's DNA tested. She is 12.5% Husky, 12.5% Lab, and, as they put it, 75% Mega Mutt.
이쁜댕댕이잘보고갑니다ㅋ👍👍👍
Okay.... I'm 7 minutes in. Biscuit's breed mix has not yet been revealed; and I want to play a doggie breed game. I don't remember all the breeds I guessed at the beginning of this series; but I'm sticking with Beagle and I'm also seeing Labrador. Does anybody else want to play.... before the results are revealed?
Is it possible that picking the puppy up while he's having an accident is not a good idea for really small dogs?
I caught my Chi pup of 4 months pooing on the floor and - without shouting or anger - just went up to him and picked him up and put him on his designated toilet. I was very gentle but swift.
Still I seemed to have startled him and ever since then he seems to be a little afraid of me, which breaks my heart.
I recently trained my new Chihuahua puppy to use a litter box. As I purchased a 24 X 18 wire doggy crate and stuck a doggy bed, a doggy blanket, and some doggy toys inside it. At the same time, I also bought a 24 X 18 solid plastic container with high sides.
Then using a hack saw, I cut an opening on one side of it big enough for a chihuahua to enter and exit it with ease. I then filled the bottom of that plastic container with one inch of pine pellets to make it my new doggy litter box.
Then with the puppy inside the doggy crate, I butted the litter box entrance to the door of the doggy crate. As the idea was the puppy would sleep and play in the doggy crate and then would eliminate in the litter box and it worked like a charm.
As this was by far the easiest and fastest way I have ever potty trained a puppy and it was also the first time I did it without having not one puppy mistake inside the house whatsoever. In fact, the best part about this method is the puppy literally trains itself.
Meanwhile, using a litter box means I don't have to worry about maintaining a schedule to let the puppy out. I don't have to worry about whether it is snowing or raining or whether it is freezing or too hot outside. I don't have to worry about leaving the puppy alone for extended periods of time. I also don't have to worry about fleas, ticks, or my puppy picking up a disease another dog left behind.
Had I realized the convenience of using a litter box sooner, I would have been using them a lot sooner. Not to mention that there is no faster, better, or easier way to potty train a dog than the method I described above.
Lastly, the pine pellets are not only odorless, but if you use a sifting cat litter box as an aid to clean your doggy litter box, it makes cleaning your doggy litter box a snap. Pine pellets are also far cheaper than pee pads and far less disgusting.
I had guessed chihuahua dachshund and pug.
Part of my potty training at night was to have her in bed and when she woke up in the middle of the night I knew to take her out. During day I did every hour. She hated to crate at night and it would not fit in my room.
My dog doesn’t potty in his crate, and will potty outside. But he won’t let me know when he needs to go once he’s outside the crate. And will potty anywhere in the house except my room I don’t know what to do anymore
Dog has been living here for months. Pees near his food and his water, in his water bowl. He goes even on the bed he sleeps. Barks incessantly when crated. One year old. Dachshund, beagle He goes once every hour / hour snd a half. All day. Every day. 4 am to 11:30 pm. Help.
Surprised you didn’t use the puppy apartment 😅
I see I’m giving our baby to much room during the day. Soooo many accidents 🤦♀️🤦♀️ I do have a gate up. She likes her crate but doesn’t want to stay there unless it’s bedtime. Thanks
