I really like doggy movies on Youtube. They consistently make me chuckle.
BUT a great deal of everyday people are gradually over time KILLING their
family dogs… The junk they use into pet food leads to varieties of cancer
and makes family dogs pass away early. I came to understand the tough way
when my doggie died at 6. To preserve your animal’s life make sure you take
a look at Double Life Dog Diet (Google it.)
@NotNadiaK Hope you don’t mind me butting in here. When you want to fade
out the clicker, a behaviour should be consistently on cue (either hand or
verbal cue). If it is and you don’t need to have any food lures in your
hand at all, you can start fading out the need for a clicker, e.g. only
click and treat for every 2 sits, then every 3, every 4 etc., then remove
the clicker altogether and do the same with food. Then make it completely
random as this keeps the dog guessing. Hope that helps
@schweetheartmonkee it is not healthy for dogs or humans, some dogs are
intolerant to it. But tiny crumbles of cheese can work wonders. Also you
could do something like smear a small amount of cream cheese in a baggie,
and put the dogs kibble in there overnight, the next day the kibble will
smell ‘cheesey” and most dogs will usually find it highly rewarding
@Hpfan75 I have a schnauzer and trained him not to do the behaviors I
didn’t like,like pulling on leash,using the bathroom in the house and
barking with positive reinforcement.
I love all of your videos! I just wondered if you had a video that
demonstrates how to progress from click and treat to verbal cue and treat
to verbal cue alone? Once the behaviour is consistent, how do you stop
clicking and treating and just ask for the behaviour? My clicker trainer
says I will “just know”, but that is a little vague for me!
@kikopup I think it is a common misperception that “shock collars” are a
cruel way to train your dog. The current generation of remote collars have
noise, light, vibration and mild adjustable shock. I think they can be used
in conjunction with positive training as an “interupter” of problem
behaviors. They should never be used as punishment but rather as a signal
to “pay attention” much like the pull of the collar. I only use the vibrate
setting.
@Caninefan999 I have a video called: “Fading a Lure (while teaching SPIN)”
and another one on: “adding a verbal cue” . I dont have one on how to fade
the click, or how to go onto a variable schedule yet! Aren’t I terrible?!
Basically to stop clicking, when your dog is getting the behavior right
about 80% ( some like 90%) I will sometimes click, or sometimes say yes and
feed, or sometimes say good boy and feed, or sometimes just toss a treat.
sometimes my dog takes my glasses and tries to wear them and attempts to do
office work please help i need my dog to know he is not an office man
PLEASE HELP!
The main problem I’m having right now is keeping our pup off the bed and
deterring biting. In the past, this was easy but with her it’s not. She
does great when with me alone. She jumps off the bed and sometimes doesn’t
even get on after looking at me. This is without intimidation. However,
once someone else is on the bed she totally ignores the “interruptor” and I
have a hard time even getting her attention. She also gets excited and
mouths them, though she doesn’t mouth me anymore at all.
@Hungry2Play your dog is telling you that he is not finding the things that
you thought were reinforcement as reinforcing as you thought they were. Try
using new treats (real meat or cheese) and teach him to work for a toy or
the things that he loves (like sniffing, etc)
Love your video channel! I have a question: One of my dogs barks at humans
and dogs sometimes. I have a sound I use when I want her attention, and I
always try to use it before she starts barking, but sometimes She’s faster
than me and starts barking, then I make the sound and she stops and looks
at me. But now she barks more often because she knows I’m going to make the
sound and reward her for looking at me, What should I do?
Hey Emily, I just got a 4 month old puppy about a week ago and so I was
looking for training video and came across some of yours. I think your
advice and teachings are very valuable and useful and have used some of it.
However, my dog/puppy was really depressed the first couple of days I got
her, is this normal? and does it affect her training/learning ability since
I am not her original owner?
Hey Your videos are great and you have inspired me to be so much more
active with my dog and he loves it but I do have issues! I am terrible at
coming up with cues and commands… I am stumped here… do you have any
advice?
I am trying to teach her to walk with a loose leash, she gets very excited
and tends to pull and tug ALOT. When I don’t let her get what she wants,
she begins to whine. I then take a few steps back and wait for her to come
to me, once the leash is loose I begin to walk forward while she jolts
ahead of me. Again, I stop and then she ends up jerking herself from the
leash and whining again. I do this repetitively. Any suggestions on what I
should do?
@kikopup will do but how do I stop her from sniffing everything? Its kind
of hard to walk her since she’s always pulling and sniffing everything then
barks at dogs if she sees one. I’ve tried your loose leash walking tactics
but I’m probably doing it wrong since its not working
I had to put my 14 yr old black lab down a month ago. Sad sad day. My
family surprised me with a new black lab puppy from a rescue and now I have
to re-learn training behaviors all over because my first lab was so awesome
I hardly had to work at anything with her. Your videos are helping me
along. I never used to clicker train but I’m learning myself now with your
assistance. I’ll keep you posted. Thanks for all your videos!!!!!
Thank you for videos because of them I have been able to train my puppy. We
got our puppy in January and I’m happy to say she is an amazing friend. I
work with her daily and she has learned a lot. Her name is Baeya and we
love her very much. If you ever have the chance to check our videos you
will see what you have helped me to create an amazing bond between my Dog
and I. Much appreciation Thanks again keep up the good work.
@sweetlilella1983 🙂 thanks! When I started making videos on youtube there
were no videos on real +R, and the books and dvds on +R methods were very
expensive. Now I think information is flowing more freely so that not just
the few and far between have access to this kind of information
Check out my channel to train to be a better manager. Let your employees
live the values they live at home at work without seperation. Let them live
better.
Looking fwd to the stop attention seeking behaviours – Kaycee has started
barking loudly @ agility class and i reinforced it without thinking by
giving her attention to get her to be quiet. I keep give her a kong before
she starts for now , but don’t want to have to rely on it. Once she starts
barking, i cant just ignore her for the sake of the others. Its v.
frustrating. Love these vids – so helpful

Hey! I’m 14 years old and I was thinking about getting a dog and training
it with your methods. but I don’t know what age I should get the dog at to
train it. Does it matter what age the owner has to be to train it? Plus
could you train a dog without a clicker?
Hello there, I would just like to say that your dog training videos are
amazing. I have been researching dogs and what care they need for eight
years and will be getting a Yorkshire Terrier puppy in summer this year.
Your videos have helped me understand the vital communication between
humans and dogs, which can become a beautiful friendship if you train your
dog correctly. I look foward to seeng more dog training videos in the
future. Thanks for everything Petlover
I love you put as the first point is seeing what you do want your dog to
do, a picture of where you want to go!!! Also love your point about not
letting a dog rehearse behaviors you dont like!!! Fantastic video!!! Kathy

i have try the clicker but my husky pup will not do nothing and i have ask
him many times to do it im trying to train him to sit and lay down but he
doen’t listen
Your videos are so great! I love how your dogs are always offering so many
behaviors so you just click when they do the thing I want. My Aussie pup
knows lots of tricks, but she doesn’t really offer behaviors…she will
just sit and wait for me to tell her what to do or lure her! We just have
long staring contests when I wait for her to do something. Is there any way
I can encourage her to offer behaviors? Thanks!
People-if, like me, you have been watching these videos and devouring all
this information you should donate something. Even if it’s only a small
amount. I’ve learnt SO much from her, and am so grateful. Thanks.
