Could these methodologies might also work on older non-socialized rescues'?
Great question. Yes, all the same concepts apply!
Also, not sure if you’ve seen this video before, but it has an adult mastiff where similar methodologies are being applied: czcams.com/video/LIhvfz65O-4/video.html
This is the best puppy video I've seen. thank you so very much. I have two poodles (8 weeks old) and the one gets over stimulated - as you state, didn't know it was the issue - and when they play for a bit he won't stop barking! and we haven't known what to do or help...it's been a frustrating week...Thank you ...This video was very helpful.
Thank you. I was thinking my puppy was a psycho. He is one of those who got more and more excited when I said "Ouch". This video is the only one which addressed the problem. We missed the gated areas while he was younger. He is now 4 months old and has a kennel which we use to help him calm down. So I think it will take longer. I wish I would have found your channel 2 months ago. 😘
Hey! Thanks for watching, and for your comment! How is your puppy doing? Yes, I think a lot of puppies have that reaction with saying a loud "ouch." It's all about helping the puppy think through that excitement or frustration. If you are using the kennel it's usually a good idea to stay close to the kennel to avoid causing any additional frustration. If you want more formal training go to my website www.legendsdogtraining.com The Mat Work class is a good fit for dogs 5 months and over. It establishes focus and calm behavior. Once established Mat Work can be a great way to redirect an over-excited puppy. Thanks again for watching. Best, Alyssa
On point with all the information and very well edited video. Super helpful. Thanks.
Thank you! We watched this last night and today because we train fairly quickly our grand dog is calmer!❤️❤️❤️
Makes me so happy to hear this was helpful! It's a process, but the tips in the video will help promote healthy habits and minimize the biting can cause so much frustration. If you need any more puppy support go to my website to learn more about my classes. www.legendsdogtraining.com/online-classes/
Great tips. I was told that puppies yip when their litter mate bites too hard, and if you can yip like a pup, your pup learns to control how hard it's biting, not stopping, but learning humans are sensitive and must be treated carefully.
Love these tips. Will try to work them out with my 9 week young hyperactive labrador.
So glad you found this helpful! Keep me posted on how it goes! Best, Alyssa Rose www.legendsdogtraining.com
All 5 points represent something we are encountering with our new puppy. Thank you for showing examples and speaking calmly for people who are watching with their puppies in the room. :) Also I love your video with John McGuigan. I'm a member of his programme (have to spell program the Scottish way). :)
I apologize for the slow response, but I wanted to say that I appreciate your kind words. Thank you for taking the time to comment. I hope all is moving in the right direction with your pup, though adolescence is usually an easy stage. ;) Best of luck in your training. If you ever need more support or guidance, let me know. - Alyssa Rose www.legendsdogtraining.com
@@legendsdogtraining Thank you so much! Adolescence has been challenging. We're going one day at a time.
Lovely advice, Alyssa
Thank you.
This is wonderful! :)
Thank you, Juliette. I think everyone always wants that one “silver bullet” fix to stop puppy biting. Hopefully this video demonstrates all the pieces of the puzzle in a way that helps people think past just suppressing the behavior.
Great channel. Had my rescue collie for 7 years - I introduced a kitten last year (not my finest call) but I learned just how adaptable older collies can be once they get over the initial shock and natural aggressive response. Wasn't a fun week or two while I trained the dog. She's still very jealous if I play with the cat but I'm not sure I can do much about that behaviour
Thanks for watching. It's not always easy to integrate a dog and a cat, but it sounds like they've come a long way in short time. I'm sure there's still ways to improve your collie's response to the cat (or your interaction with the cat) through training. It could be something as simple as doing 5 minutes a day where you might pet the cat and then feed your dog on a training mat or dog bed. If your dog is struggling then you could always drop criteria and sit and feed your dog on the mat. This could be a good way to help her de-escalate. Thanks again for watching and writing in. Best, Alyssa Rose legendsdogtraining.com
@@legendsdogtraining thank you so much. That sounds like wonderful advice. I will give it a go for sure.
What size crate for kelpie
😮 you are a life saver listening to your methods of training a puppy,I just got a mini poodle puppy her name is coco she will be 4 months old sept 1st. I'm going threw the barking stage right now oh and pant leg biteing she follows me around house every where I know when play time is over and she gets tired ,at this point in time I would love to take her out side to explore and maybe walk with her,I noticed on your dog a harness how do I get her to wear one or did you start with a collar and what's your advice which one is best for her,I will subscribe and hope to hear from you soon thank you so much
Hi! My name is Alyssa Rose, the one that created this video. I'm so glad you found it helpful. The specific type of harness doesn't matter as much until adolesence / early adulthood. For puppies I would choose any type of harness that is easy to take on and off (and doesn't get caught as you pull it over their ears). I personally use Wonder Walker harnesses. They don't sell these in most pet stores, but you can buy it from their website. When introducing a harness I would pair it with some simple, short training sessions using food to create positive associations. If you're interested I also teach online classes. Here's a link if you would like to check out the classes: legendsdogtraining.com/online-classes/ I have a puppy class, but as your pup is nearing the 5 month mark I would say that Mat Work would probably be the best fit. Hope this is helpful, and thank you for taking the time to comment! Alyssa Rose
My kelpie pup (4 months old) barks at everyone when we go to the beach or park how do i get her to stop? i have two pups one doesn’t bark at all and the other does.
My 3 and half month old puppy has started to jump up at me on walks and rip my coat and gets really cross should I say get down or off as can’t redirect when outside unless I say go find it like indoors x❤
I have a 1 year old farm dog Rory, who is a mixed breed golden retriever- German Sheppard mix. Barking isn't a problem as I want him to protect the yard and keep animals off the garden. But he doesn't come when called. He is on a long chain because every time he gets loose he runs away. He sometimes refuses to come to me for our twice daily walks around my large yards yardsite. He often bites my ankles and shoes, won't play fetch, or if he does, won't bring the ball to me. I'm going to try the hand feeding to earn trust. I try to stay calm, but have yelled in anger a few times. I know I'm the problem, but live in a tiny remote town where getting training is near impossible. Help!
Hey! Thanks for watching. I like that your focus in on earning trust, this is one of the most important parts of training. I teach online classes that can be watched at your convenience, and for anyone enrolled in class I offer weekly Office Hours where people can ask questions about the training or any challenges that might present along the way. Mat Work is the best starting point . Here's a link if you're interested: legendsdogtraining.com/online-classes/ Best, Alyssa
We’ve adopted a 2(now 3 month old) border collie pyranesse mix. She’s completely untrained(got potty down for the most parts, still have accidents). But behavior is still driving me nuts and training isn’t going well. Biggest issue is biting and scratching.
Hey Zachary! Thanks for watching. It's all about the foundation - take things step by step to build healthy habits that will help her to think through impulsive behaviors. I did my best to provide an overview in this video but it's a rough outline. I teach a six week class for puppies, if you're interested you can check out the class here: legendsdogtraining.com/online-classes/puppy-class/ When you sign up for this class you also have the ability to check in with me each week to ask questions as you work through the training. It's a process, but if you do it right you'll see the positive impact will snowball. Best, Alyssa Rose
So what if the puppy goes potty in that space while trying to housebreak?? We have a 13 week old puppy that we've had for almost 2 weeks and she bites nonstop. I want to use a puppy play pen but she will just pee in it.
Hi Steve, A few tips. 1. I would start by creating a potty schedule/ routine. In some cases I take puppies out every 30 minutes during the day. I have a timer so that I don't lose track of time. 2. Calmly wait for the puppy to potty and then when she's done calmly say "good" and deliver 3 pieces of high value food. I typically have the food in a training pouch (avoid plastic zip lock bags) as they're very distracting. By creating a predictable routine, and a reinforcement history for going potty in a desired location you'll start to notice that your puppy will begin to get better and better at holding it. 3. If/when she does have an accident - clean it up with an enzymatic cleaner. 4. Avoid verbally or physically reprimanding her - this could make her nervous to go in front of you. 5. Avoid lining the the play area with blankets. This isn't a good idea because if the puppy does have an accident - it will be hard to see. Once a puppy starts to go potty on fabric it is a difficult habit to modify. So keep one small bed in the puppy pen, but the rest of the area should have bare floor. Hope this helps!

I have one yr dog like to Bearkat in ear and bites your hands like to chew stuff even Jump on a 3yr
I'm sorry I didn't your comment sooner! Has this behavior improved? The tips in this video will help. If you need more support and guidance you can always come train with me in my online classes. legendsdogtraining.com/online-classes/ Best, Alyssa Rose
Hi i have multiple dogs two of which will be puppies. I have an old lady dog that seems to be barking more. I want to teach them and refresh my old lady dog not to bark while im not present. I know this post is a couple of years old I still hope the author sees this . please give me some tips!!!
Hi! My name is Alyssa Rose, I'm the one that created this video. I am a very big advocate for relaxation training. You can look at Karen Overall's relaxation protocol. She offers some free resources if you google it. I also teach online classes that guides you through a six week training. Weeks 1-3 help to establish the foundation and framework. Weeks 4-6 looks at how to use this foundation with real world triggers. If you are interested, here is a link: legendsdogtraining.com/online-classes/ Mat Work is the best starting point. Hope this is helpful! Alyssa Rose
A lot of this makes sense so I conclude it must be true :)
It's not the easy solution most people are looking forward to stop biting. The fact is that biting is a normal puppy behavior, so the goal is to give the puppy lot's of positive outlets for that natural behavior until they outgrow the impulse. Best, Alyssa Rose www.legendsdogtraining.com
I have been doing so much research on puppy training, I like the calming training. To me it sounds like a good positive way to have your puppy listen to you. My roommate just got two tiny Chihuahuas. One nips/bites a lot. While the other is more gentle. I understand consistency is the best way to have traing be affective. However my roomate tends to yell at her dogs when they bite or pee or tear things up. Whereas I tend to redirect them. How confusing is this to the puppies and will my traing be affective if she does opposite. I feel badly for the pups because they are getting mixed messages . Or should I just stop altogether and just let her train her dogs her way. Confused
This’s for when you have one dog. How if you have multi dogs and a puppy?
Hey, How old is your puppy? A lot of the same protocol applies for multi-dog homes, especially if the puppy is biting or jumping on the adult dogs. It's important that the puppy has a calm space (centrally located in your home) to rest for intervals throughout the day. This will also be important for your adult dogs who also need breaks away from the puppy. Provide lots of healthy outlets for mental and physical energy - specifically calming exercises on a training mat, combined with interactive games (biting or chasing soft toys), and opportunities to get out and "watch the world" as shown in the video. It's not necessarily about trying to "tire" your puppy out, it's more about the mental workout that is created through healthy forms of enrichment. In fact, puppies that are chronically over-stimulated are usually the most bitey. Even when you're doing everything right just remember that biting is developmental, so don't expect it to go away over night. ;) If you want more guidance, support and structure: www.legendsdogtraining.com/online-classes/puppy-class/
my puppy is lunging and biting, it's making me insane, we do have quiet times...
You’ll get through this!! It’s normal part of puppy development, but the tips in this video should help you get through it will less frustration for both you and your puppy. Let me know how it goes! - Alyssa Rose
@@legendsdogtraining a big problem is it's still so cold here, so she and i both are tired of the inside...she's a gem at fetch, stay...since she was dropped off at the shelter at 6.5 weeks she missed some important development stages with mom and siblings. i adopted at 7.5 weeks, and because she was so young for her first parvo shot she has to have one more, so 4 weeks plus the 10-14 days after....we have a shady backyard, with the snow and cold i'm miserable out there after 20 minutes, my husband then comes out and plays for another 20 minutes...then she's so happy. i've tried to not beharsh, but not soft, she has rules, crate trained, there's lots right...thanks for the encouragement.
@@Kate98755 It's not easy, fortunately spring time is right around the corner. One of the things that's noted in the video is the idea of doing more start/ stop training exercises to help with arousal control. Think red light, green light or freeze tag (these games for human kids are fun but also teach emotional regulation) . Games that encourage high excitement, alternated with calm/ quiet behavior is more effective at teaching impulse control than playing 10-20-30 minutes of fetch where the puppy is just fueled on adrenaline. In some ways this can create an adrenaline junky. The mistake is to tire a puppy out with long play sessions, it's more ideal to do 30-60 seconds of play paired with 30-60 seconds of mat work training. And then another 30-60 seconds of play and back to 30-60-90 seconds of mat work training. At the beginning this is no easy feat, but with practice it becomes a highly effective way of teaching puppies (dogs of any age that need more help in managing arousal control) to think through playful energy. I call it the "0-60" game since it teaches puppies to go from 0 to 60 and back again. If more formal training is something that interests you, I can give you a link to my Puppy Class. It could also be good way to provide healthier forms of mental stimulation in your living room on those days where it's not possible to be outside: www.legendsdogtraining.com/online-classes/puppy-class/
The other interesting thing is that doing these start-stop play sessions will tire a puppy out much more quickly and more effectively than longer play sessions alone. It takes more mental and physical energy to "switch gears" between calm behavior and high excitement behavior, than it does to just be highly excitement for a longer duration of time. All this while teaching a skill that can later be applied to other areas of the puppy's life. It's a win win. - Alyssa Rose www.legendsdogtraining.com
@@legendsdogtraining agree, i don't just throw the ball...she has to sit, i make her wait to take off for the fetch so she has to stare at the prize, we will take breaks to walk to the front and then she has to heel, do a sit stay at the gate, i go through and i make her wait, been building the length of the wait, but more of that would be even better, i do the same in the house, i play find it in the house, she's been liking that, outside was a bit of a challenge with so many spots to check...i didn't hide the ball much, but at her age it was work for her. i know she needs thinking games, i will look into the link you posted, thanks for the reply.
Or you can just shock the shit out of them, problem solved.
Hoping this is a joke.
@@legendsdogtraining nope it’s a fact
