I had a yappy dog that now barks on cue. Dog owners should teach their dog when it is ok to bark, not only for the sake of human sanity but respect for others. This was an excellent source of help.
The reason why I am staring so intently at the dog is because I want the timing of my click to be as close to the actual bark as possible. If I waited to hear the bark, and then click, I would be late. Therefore, I am actually clicking when I see the physical precursors to the bark. For Elaine that is a lip curl. When I saw the lip curl, I clicked, and that made the click much closer to the timing of the bark that followed.
My four month old mixed breed has been in training for six weeks. He picks up all the commands very quickly, except he is an incessant barker. I tried this technique and it worked within minutes. I have not used my clicker very much, so I loaded it [loading it means giving the dog a treat and clicking it each time for about 10 times so the dog knows a click means a treat] Then I couldn't get him to bark until I played TH-cam videos of other dogs aggressively barking. This worked within 5 minutes! After 10 times of having him bark on cue, I went to the hand signals and he instinctively knew what to do. I'm working on using the quiet cue, but his barking has gone from constant to none. Risky already knows that he only gets a treat when i cue him to bark with the hand signal. Very good technique. Once he picks up a good behavior, he does it every time, unless he is severely distracted. Still, he is only four months old. He is going to be trained to pull a cart [with a seat for me], and I can't have him constantly barking at everyone and everything, and the 'leave-it' command doesn't always work to stop his barking at people and dogs. Thank you treat.pouch!
Hey there. So this is so this is a common misconception popularized by traditional dog trainers that rely on tools to make life unpleasant when their dog does not perform as desired. Here's a video that will explain the dominance myth: ==> Dog4Training.blogspot.com
Great explanation of how to train bark/quiet. I've done this with other dogs in the past and am working on it with my Aussie Shepherd. She learns rediculously fast but can be a little stubborn, lol. I work with her everyday at the same time and she comes and tells me when it is time to practice! She definitely has her favorite tricks (high 5 and double high 5) and lets me know when she doesn't want to do a particular trick anymore by looking at me like, "I got this one, can we move on?"
hey ,if anyone else is searching for puppy training tips try Panlarko Perfect Canine Planner (should be on google have a look ) ? Ive heard some interesting things about it and my co-worker got amazing success with it.
Thank you so much! He doesn't tend to bark for attention. But he does have fear aggression towards other dogs, at least when he's on leash. We are currently working with him on that and he is showing improvment using lots of treats to lead him away from other dogs while we're on walks. He can't bark and lunge while he's walking away and eating. :)
A couple years ago I lived in an area with a Used Car Dealership. Every night as I went to 7-11 a couple dogs in that Dealership would bark at me to warn me off. I often praised them for a job well done. But on some nights, I would give them slices of beef jerky and as time went on,. They stopped barking at me. But I would still give them beef jerky.

This was lovely put. We'll attempt this starting today. We've picked up a rescue GSD as our second dog in the house, but he has severe difficulties with knocks and the door bell. Luckily he is treat oriented and even though we've attempted to help him thus far, this video makes the break down so much easier to understand. Thanks for that. x
I did this years ago with my old dog and my current dog knows when to bark and when to keep quiet also . the only difference is I never use a clicker and treats teaching certain things and this is one of them.
i am actualy impressed with someone who uses a dogfriendly training method in 2012, considering that people nowadays still ''train'' dogs with chains and electric collars... i think this video is a good example of how to learn to controll your dogs barking in a friendly way. staring aside, i readed the motives in the comments, and even if the dog is unsure a couple of times, its fine most of the time. lets not even start about shit on ''how you give a treat'' the dog gets rewarded for desired behaviour, as if the dog cares if he eats rewards from your hand or off the floor..... i myself dont use a clicker, but i tought this video was helpful because i have a dog that doesnt nesesarily barks a lot but he does LOVE to bark and is really enthusiastic so sometimes he goes on for a little to long, and this sure gave me some good ideas on how to controle my dogs barking better. Thankyou~
The video was shot in one setting - about 30 minutes including breaks for the dog. Elaine is not our dog - just a client's, so it would take more practice sessions at home every day for a week or two to really strengthen the behavior.
Thank you for this training video. I am going to start using this right away! I adopted a rescue dog that is easily excitable and he barks at every little noise! Now, my "good" dog who I've had for a year is copying him and starting to bark at everything too and he never did that before. You're absolutely correct that this problem can put even a patient owner (like myself) over the edge. I will let you know how we do! Thank you!
That's why clicker training is so effective. The dog does think it's training you. Who wouldn't feel successful after securing an endless supply of tasty treats?
When your dog barks quickly after you make your Bark cue, and quiets quickly after you make your quiet cue, the training is pretty much done. Then just do brush up sessions randomly to maintain it over time.
This is the first video I've came across that explained the importance of teaching a dog opposites at the same time and I've watched hours on the subject for about a week now. I used the methods here to get my dog to stop jumping on my couch unless I ask her to. Thanks a lot, I will be using this for many different things!
This is a good video. I am studying dog training ATM. Poisitve rewards based training like this is the most effective and scientifically proven. Each session should only be up to 3 minutes at a time but several times a day, depending on the dog. Spraying the dog with water is aversive...so don't do it! They are not learning anything from that and just confusing the dog. A dog feels as though it is their job to alert you to someone coming to the door. So teach them to "quiet" after they have done their job. This video is the way to go...Excellent!
Thank you for the great video!!! This worked on my 6 month old Chi Chi. He is a well behaved dog at home - cute as can be and gets along great with our big GSD as well as our two children. However, taking him out in public is another story. He thinks he needs to bark at everything that walks by him. I am hoping this will help stop that behavior.
Thank you! We hope to release high quality dog training videos on TH-cam as time allows. We believe that fewer videos but of high quality are more useful to TH-camrs.
I didn’t think i’d be able to teach my dog either of these but so far I’ve managed to teach her to bark on cue. Now i have to teach her how to be quiet (which is the main reason i came here)
Am I the only one that didn't see the quiet technique work? He knocked, dog barked, he said "shhh" gave treat. Same as earlier, He knocked, dog barked, dog was quiet, he gave treat. How does the dog know that "shh" is quiet? An example would have been, say "shhh", knock, treat dog if he doesn't bark. I understand the "explanation" of training for quiet but this example of quiet was useless.
My reply to iforce2d is relevant to your comment as well: 5:45 is about classically conditioning the dog to expect good things to happen after the quiet signal. Technically I could have just skipped the knocking and just threw up the quiet signal and thrown a treat out. Classical conditioning does not involve specific behaviours. Ring bell, feed dog. Ring bell, drool. Quiet sign, feed dog. Quiet sign, feed dog. Quiet sign - dog stops barking, starts salivating and expecting food rewards. Hope that makes sense.
Clicker training is a technology and method for training animals of all kinds, including dogs. The click indicates to the learner EXACTLY when they have done the correct behavior. We follow up the click with a reinforcement (i.e. treat) so that the dog is reinforced and will want to repeat the behaviour. In this case, we are often clicking for barking because we want to teach the dog to bark, but eventually, only bark when we ask.
Thank you for this: I really appreciate, in addition to the method, the format and style of the video: concise, clean, professional. Is the online school still operating?
Thanks so much for this video! I tried it first thing this morning with my puppy and he got it right away. This made so much since and worked wonderfully.
i know Im asking the wrong place but does anyone know of a way to get back into an Instagram account?? I was dumb forgot the account password. I would appreciate any assistance you can offer me.
Great question. Elaine has always been a bit cautious around strangers, even though she was rescued as an 11 week old puppy and even attended our puppy socialization class. When the video was shot I had not seen her for three or four months since puppy class ended.
I use a squirt bottle for my three chihuahuas. I leave the bottle by the front door, when someone comes and they bark I simply pick up the bottle and look at them and they get quiet. I have only sprayed them a couple times with plain water and now they know not to bark, works great.
***** great question regarding 1:04 vs 5:45. The focus of 1:04 was to get the bark behaviour offered. 5:45 is about classically conditioning the dog to expect good things to happen after the quiet signal. Technically I could have just skipped the knocking and just threw up the quiet signal and thrown a treat out. Classical conditioning does not involve specific behaviours. Ring bell, feed dog. Ring bell, drool. Quiet sign, feed dog. Quiet sign, feed dog. Quiet sign - dog stops barking, starts salivating and expecting food rewards. Hope that makes sense.
Treatpouch.com So, if the classical conditioning just interupts the behaviour for an expected treat, can a single cue be used for everything? Example: Cuing "Drop it" like this guy does: /watch?v=ndTiVOCNY4M The dog basically stops whatever it's doing when it hears "drop." So can that be used for both dropping something and to stop barking? Or is it better to train different commands for these things? Hope the question makes sense. Great timing with the clicker btw.
Michael Ricks-Aherne You could technically do that, however, I think with a Drop cue, eventually you would want to make reinforcement contingent upon the dog actually letting go of the thing. So in the end, Drop cue means "open your mouth", and then reinforcement occurs. Quiet ultimately is the cue for stop barking/close your mouth. So I would probably train Quiet and Drop separately. Even though initially they are taught in a similar fashion. Hope that helps.
I would strongly recommend proper training for your dog. Think you are implementing efficient and dog friendly approaches? See how to train your dog the right way ==> plus.google.com/107984602498948672598/posts/ZndGCQHkPrj

Ha! Precisely the strategy I have been using with just about every behavior. My reasoning for teaching behavior first has always been that I can then induce it and teach the opposite behavior. This is great.
Training tricks is a great way to build a relationship with your dog (as well as have a cute little trick to show off lol). Besides, it's not like the dog doesn't benefit, it gets its favourite treat for doing something that comes natural and the owner doesn't have to worry about complaining neighbours XD
For this little video tutorial, we did it in one session. However, it would require additional sessions for days/weeks to follow to really develop fluency for the behaviour. Unfortunately, Elaine is not our dog, so we were unable to train beyond this single session.
@BITCOIN SWAMI Unfortunately, these limp wristed new age snowflakes literally don't believe in asserting dominance over dogs. Can't imagine what their kids are like.
1. Yes I am the guy in the video 2. You want to teach your cat to bark? That would be tough. Maybe you can get the cat to meow somehow, and then click/treat. 3. Clickers are commonly sold at pet stores that carry dog products, or online at Amazon and other retailers.
im gonna try this with a miniature poodle when she arrives ill update u guys! heyyy update sorry for taking so long I totally forgot buttt we tried and it didn't rlly work especially since she didn't bark when we knocked on the wall and stuff but were gonna continue trying good luck guys and stay safe!
Hi! I want to say that if this is the first trick you are teaching your dog it will take a lot longer to learn because your dog will need to learn "reinforcement training" while also learning the bark/quiet trick. However, if you've successfully taught other tricks to your dog before it might just mean more sessions and shorter sessions because you always want their full attention. Also, try to train in an isolated room or space so that there aren't any distractions (aka other reinforcements) other than you. Lastly, your dog might respond to audio demands better such as saying the word "bark" and "quiet." I hope this helped, best of luck!
He said theyd eventually stop barking and go straight to looking for their treat, so he's just associating the signle with good things, so they'll connect it to a reward. You just have to wait til they stop barking, then make them wait awhile while they are quiet to reinforce the hand gesture to the quiet, and a treat. ;)
Maloney: of course it's okay. You can also click your tongue. And remember to go easy on the rewards. If you overload her, it can have a troubling effect not to mention overstuff her and make her less ready to accept a more subdued reward. Butyou sound like a great owner. Lucky dog!
The clicker is just a consistent sound that the dog can associate with a "correct answer". Some trainers just say "OK!" emphatically or "Good Boy" or click their tongue. Everything about training is just about cues of some sort as a language barrier gap to create a binary connection between what you want and what you don't want. That said, reward and praise are two different things and with training, you shouldn't give praise for every correct action. If you do a little research, you'll find that the best dog trainers have a method for separating the two types of reinforcement based on the action being performed.
Clicker is faster and you can click at exact moment when good behavior is done. Good girl is more of a reinforcer than a reward. With clicker the dog learns that click means food is coming and so it becomes an instant reward.
A dog LOVES praise and that affirmation they did good. When they do what we want "quiet!" from barking, using "no" when u catch a bad behavior b4 it happens or "give" when they drop a toy for us , a pat or rub on the chest with a happy praise of "good girl/boy" works just as well as a treat. You can add treats into this later on when the dog does what we want, hears the command, does it, gets the "good girl/boy" and then their treat. Alternate ur praise and treats so they don't know what type of positive reinforcement they'll receive but will listen to the command for that reward.
Dogs don't know what a bark is, they just do it, so you can't exactly tell them to stop barking because they have no idea what you mean. So you have to teach it what barking means. By first making the association to the bark by rewarding them for barking on cue, you then establish control over that action; now they know what you're talking about. So then when you tell them to bark and then immediately follow up with SHUSH, you're teaching them that you are responding to their bark and when they stop barking after you say shush, then they get paid. Now they know that if you shush their bark, they need to be quiet. The reason that he says shush and then rewards the dog so quickly after he stops barking (that people in this thread don't seem to be understanding) is that if you wait too long, the dog will get confused because he's like "hey you literally just TOLD me to bark but now you're not rewarding me wtf?" So what he's doing is saying Bark! "woof" "ok stop" and then as soon as the dog stops, you notice that the dog is deadlocked on the trainer's face like waiting for the next thing to happen (i.e. he's not barking) and then gets rewarded. Over time, the dog starts to get the pattern that when you say "quiet" that it means to stop barking. It seems counter-intuitive to some people on this thread because they're thinking that that would be confusing, but dogs don't learn like we learn. They're instinctual, not logical. We train dogs by conditioning through patterns of stimulus->dog response->trainer response (reward or no reward). So then what happens is the dog ends up on auto-pilot. He's not being quiet because he knows what quiet means. He's being quiet because he's been conditioned to stop making noise when he receives a certain cue (vocal or otherwise). This technique of paired cues is basically creating a path to making tricky associations. You sometimes have to associate one thing to another to another to another in order to get to the action you want to control. So here, we associate the knock to the bark to the cue to bark to the cue to not bark, and that's how we control the action of not barking.
Excellent! Thank you! That is what we were taught to do as well. Sadly, dogs in our area are common, but unreliable for training purposes. When walking we rarely have the luxury of seeing the dog approaching from a far enough distance with which to train him at his limit. A dog has to be several blocks away and that just doesn't happen in our complex. But even though we end up seeing dogs well within his comfort zone, we've managed to slowly encourage less reactive behavior.
Umami Mimami Yes, some new people moved next door with a dog and now she barks at their dog! I wish she didn't. But she is down the back yard when she does that. Since we kept one puppy from her litter we have bigger issues, such as how to stop her (puppy) peeing on the carpet, we are keeping them both outside quite a lot more now.
Jossy Smith The only way to housetrain a puppy, in my humble opinion, is to take them out constantly. My puppy was very good after the first week because I took him out many times a day. Keeping them outside won't stop the peeing because they may associate the opposite (going outside to inside) as when they need to pee. My puppy also barks sometimes when dogs in the neighborhood bark, but that's common.
Umami Mimami Well we are keeping them mostly outside now, inside they just want to tear around and play together anyway. I only let them stay inside for a short time before taking them both back out. When winter comes we might bring them inside overnight in the other bathroom. Not that we get cold by other countries standards. How cold does it have to be to bother a dog?
when I'm knocking and my dog sees it, she doesn't bark, she knows it's me. it looks so silly to first teach a dog to bark and than shush, is it not better to teach shush when the dog is barking on his own, and than when it's quit to give him a reward?
Okay so after reading these comments I would just like to say this, and I am not trying to be mean. If you use this technique on your dog it does not matter the age or the breed of the dog. It will work all the same. The only difference is the older the dog the longer it could take for him/her to learn. Plus it just depends on how fast the dog can learn(because I've tot ).
You just have to find their trigger. For many dogs, a knock or a doorbell will work. If not, then you gotta keep looking for it. I trained my friends dog and he didn't care about knocks either. I had to bark at the dog to get him to bark and that was the thread to pull on. I felt ridiculous, but that's what had to be done.
By training a dog to bark and then not to bark gives you control over the behavior. Like a faucet, on again and off again. It is the learning process for the dog to help the it to understand when it is appropriate to bark.
No, because as the video says, you can use the cue to bark to reinforce quiet. Or, you could use other types of rewards that aren't food. Or, only reward the dog with treats randomly. You should check out our online courses to lean more about reinforcement. It's not just food.
Very informative, and detailed. I enjoy how this video actually shows progress, and teaches in a more scientific manner than other videos. I feel this video will be much easier to incorporate into my training because of this. Thank you for making this video.
Hi, please help me! I'm about to buy an antibarking collar for my dog, but I think they might be cruel, the thing is, that I live with my yorkshire in an appartment, my dog is great, we walk 3 times a day, but every time that I have to go out and leave him alone, he wont stop barking until I return! my neighbors are getting angry with me, I dont know how to teach him not to bark when Im not there, its like separation anxiety I guess... please help us! :(
I have the same problem with my rescued Staffie. He was rehomed 6 months ago, and probably he might be still afraid we'd abandon him. Can't leave him anywhere for even a 5 seconds...
that means that your dog is demanding of you which is good because it shows your in charge. the only suggestion i have is to restrain him just so he cant move in his chest and neck but make sure not to hurt him but do it till he stops and after this practice go outside see if he barks and repeat the sequence tell me if this helped
yes it sounds like separation anxiety, It will require counter conditioning and desensitization to your departures. It's got nothing to do with who's in charge. SA is a disorder, not a pack leader bullshit thing. They miss your proximity is all. You'll have to teach them to cope without your presence. Good luck. I'm working on a case right now and it's going to take months!
Very helpful even though many 🐕 owners can't train their pooches well on command of using the word, "Quiet" in times of when they fail to stop barking. 👏🏻 Sometimes, many people who own 🐕s end up using negative reinforcement to let their pets run amuck and bark nonstop. 👍🏻 if you agree in regards to why everyone not just me are afraid of 🐕s.
How do i stop my dog from passing gas in the car? Its becoming a problem and I no longer want to take him on rides. I think he is doing it on purpose and Im sick and tired of this shit
Of course he isn't doing it on purpose. His diet is your responsibility. Also it could be because he is anxious and is swallowing air. Please train your dog in a calm manner and don't take out your bad moods on your dog.
This is really awkward to watch because when you're staring your dog down like that its clearly making it nervous. There were a couple of instances where he barked and ran away with his tail down. Then came back quickly for more treats...you're sending mixed signals. You already created a cue the step before you added the cue. Your cue was when you stare your dog down hes supposed to bark. Not a good idea. Then you switched the cue... Also it seems that the dog could confuse the knocking with a barking cue the way you are training the quiet cue. You're treating after he barks at the noise even though you're making the quiet cue. I would like to see a demonstration of a dog who knows this really well. Im not so convinced
***** I'm staring because I need to watch very closely for the physical signs that Elaine is going to bark, so that I can time the click when she actually barks. If it makes you feel better you can do it via video camera or put sunglasses on if you wish.
Treatpouch.com so you do not see the signs of nervousness in this dog? Or do you think they're irrelevant? It seems unnecessary the intense eye contact you're giving the dog who doesn't even know you
Your response already has the answer. She barks because she knows you're on the other side. That's the behaviour. The consequence is you go out there and give her attention. She even looks happy. That's the reinforcement. She's barking to get you to come out and scold her, which you interpret as punishment, but she considers reinforcement.
choon550 It works it just takes forever...oh and i would leave out the step where his cue is to stare his dog down to get him to bark....horrible conditioning idea
It's not conditioning, it's a control method for the training session. It cues the dog to do *something* that you can respond to. Since he started by knocking on the wall and that caused a bark and then a treat, the dog is now expecting a bark to lead to a treat. Since he's not knocking anymore, but just staring, the dog gets frustrated and goes back to a bark to get the treat, which is what you want because you're trying to make an association to the bark. All he's doing is gradually teaching the dog that this session is about the bark (not the knock) by first triggering the bark (the dog just barks at the knock, he doesn't know why, he just does) and then controlling the bark by slowly changing the cue. Now that he can cue the bark without the aid of the wall, he can control the association to the bark by a hand gesture which allows him to move on to signaling quiet. The entire point is to gain control of the cue so that future associations can be made. The staring is just a middle point where he's changing the cue. It's not something that continues.
hi everyone ,if anyone else wants to learn about guide for puppy training try Jaffacter Simple Dog Coach (do a search on google ) ? Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my m8 got excellent results with it.
That is a great observation. I am glad you noticed that. We don't use any physical violence or intimidation in our training. Elaine is wary of strangers; she has always been a cautious puppy. I am not Elaine's owner - she doesn't know me at all. I was just borrowing her for the shoot.
You are still rewarding the bad behavior when he barks when you want him to be quiet. I guess I'm not understanding or seeing how this helps him be quiet.
lol you're not getting it. He's not training bad behavior, he's gaining control of the cue! By rewarding the dog when he barks, you're associating the bark to a reward -- now he knows it's about the bark. Then you gradually change the cue and only reward when he barks on command. That alone will make most dogs bark less on their own because they're not be paid to bark unless you tell them to. From that point on, you can now make them bark and then signal a quiet and then only reward when they're quiet. You couldn't do that if they didn't know it was about the bark to begin with. So then you have taught them when to bark and when when to stop barking. It's not really that complicated.
I never imagined I'd she another like my dog stash until I came across your video with your dog Elaine ! They could be twins ! I would love to send a pic of him to show you how much they resemble one another.
It is used as a marker. You have the dog associate the marker with getting a reward. When the dog does what you have asked, you click, then reward. its like the marker "yes" or "good Job" it lets the dog know they are doing what you want. i always recommend it in my trainer though training can be done without it.
"Paired" cues are so under-used in the dog training world! I used "Up" & "down" in the same session to teach my dog when he can jump up and it ended polishing up he's "settle down" cue so much more than I thought. [I learned about this from clickertraining.com & Don't Shoot The Dog by Karen Pryor.]
This is a very important set of skills to teach your dog to understand. I am very grateful that you have a stoic demeanor - the only other video I found that was decent with a very hyperactive man that I found hard to watch.
If I want to buy more time between repetitions, feeding on the floor forces the dog to move away, and buys me a few seconds to get ready for the next repetition. If I feed to mouth, then the pace of the training would increase as Elaine could bark very quickly after getting a treat. So depending on what you are training and what your setup looks like, feeding to mouth may not always be optimal.
@xblackdog my advice would be once your dog is used to the click then treat, then start taking away the treat and praise him/her by petting and saying good boy or good girl.
I had a yappy dog that now barks on cue. Dog owners should teach their dog when it is ok to bark, not only for the sake of human sanity but respect for others. This was an excellent source of help.
The best bark training video I have seen so far. Clear visual guidance without the usual 'about me' chat. Thank you for uploading, really helpful.
And without the usual tinky tink background music that is really distracting and unneccesary
This guy has such a beautiful and soothing voice.
Its for the dog sound he always do
The reason why I am staring so intently at the dog is because I want the timing of my click to be as close to the actual bark as possible. If I waited to hear the bark, and then click, I would be late. Therefore, I am actually clicking when I see the physical precursors to the bark. For Elaine that is a lip curl. When I saw the lip curl, I clicked, and that made the click much closer to the timing of the bark that followed.
What is the trick to getting a neighbor's dog to stop barking?

Clint Keesler and then do what?
Oz du Soleil throw a big bone,stick to him and he will stop barking for at least 1 day
But what -kind- of poison...

I don't even have a dog, what am I doing here
This made me laugh out loud haha
Lmao 😭😭😭😭😭😭😂😂
😅😅😅😅😅
It works on your girlfriend as well.
Maybe you just want one (or already got one).
My four month old mixed breed has been in training for six weeks. He picks up all the commands very quickly, except he is an incessant barker. I tried this technique and it worked within minutes. I have not used my clicker very much, so I loaded it [loading it means giving the dog a treat and clicking it each time for about 10 times so the dog knows a click means a treat] Then I couldn't get him to bark until I played TH-cam videos of other dogs aggressively barking. This worked within 5 minutes! After 10 times of having him bark on cue, I went to the hand signals and he instinctively knew what to do. I'm working on using the quiet cue, but his barking has gone from constant to none. Risky already knows that he only gets a treat when i cue him to bark with the hand signal. Very good technique. Once he picks up a good behavior, he does it every time, unless he is severely distracted. Still, he is only four months old. He is going to be trained to pull a cart [with a seat for me], and I can't have him constantly barking at everyone and everything, and the 'leave-it' command doesn't always work to stop his barking at people and dogs. Thank you treat.pouch!
That look 4:14-4:18 petty much sums up my entire week with my new pups so far 😂😂😂😂
Hey there. So this is so this is a common misconception popularized by traditional dog trainers that rely on tools to make life unpleasant when their dog does not perform as desired. Here's a video that will explain the dominance myth: ==> Dog4Training.blogspot.com
You saved me 7 min of my life, thank you
Great explanation of how to train bark/quiet. I've done this with other dogs in the past and am working on it with my Aussie Shepherd. She learns rediculously fast but can be a little stubborn, lol. I work with her everyday at the same time and she comes and tells me when it is time to practice! She definitely has her favorite tricks (high 5 and double high 5) and lets me know when she doesn't want to do a particular trick anymore by looking at me like, "I got this one, can we move on?"
Dude I love how this dude uses psychology, something I studied in dogs. I want this dude to help me train my dog.
the ending seemed confusing because it looked like the same practice as teaching barking on cue. Would have liked to see more of the end results.
This is one of the clearest dog training videos I've seen. Thank you
Really nice break down of a behavior that is difficult for most people to deal with!
Donna Hill Thank you for the compliment. We appreciate your videos and your work very much!
You kinda look like you are hard to deal with 😂
you are crazy my puppy is small and crazy
hey ,if anyone else is searching for puppy training tips try Panlarko Perfect Canine Planner (should be on google have a look ) ? Ive heard some interesting things about it and my co-worker got amazing success with it.
Donna Hill
Thank you so much! He doesn't tend to bark for attention. But he does have fear aggression towards other dogs, at least when he's on leash. We are currently working with him on that and he is showing improvment using lots of treats to lead him away from other dogs while we're on walks. He can't bark and lunge while he's walking away and eating. :)
A couple years ago I lived in an area with a Used Car Dealership. Every night as I went to 7-11 a couple dogs in that Dealership would bark at me to warn me off. I often praised them for a job well done. But on some nights, I would give them slices of beef jerky and as time went on,. They stopped barking at me. But I would still give them beef jerky.
This is a good example of classical conditioning in effect!

WyreWizard + same. My husband & I used to walk everywhere & befriended many dogs the same way with the same result.🐕
Awesome. They just protecting their property 😎
This is actually GENIUS. Not sure if it would "confuse" my dog, but I sure will give it a run
This was lovely put. We'll attempt this starting today. We've picked up a rescue GSD as our second dog in the house, but he has severe difficulties with knocks and the door bell. Luckily he is treat oriented and even though we've attempted to help him thus far, this video makes the break down so much easier to understand. Thanks for that. x
Incredible! Wow! You are a dog whisperer! Thank you for sharing this information and changing lives!
I did this years ago with my old dog and my current dog knows when to bark and when to keep quiet also . the only difference is I never use a clicker and treats teaching certain things and this is one of them.
i am actualy impressed with someone who uses a dogfriendly training method in 2012, considering that people nowadays still ''train'' dogs with chains and electric collars...
i think this video is a good example of how to learn to controll your dogs barking in a friendly way. staring aside, i readed the motives in the comments, and even if the dog is unsure a couple of times, its fine most of the time. lets not even start about shit on ''how you give a treat'' the dog gets rewarded for desired behaviour, as if the dog cares if he eats rewards from your hand or off the floor.....
i myself dont use a clicker, but i tought this video was helpful because i have a dog that doesnt nesesarily barks a lot but he does LOVE to bark and is really enthusiastic so sometimes he goes on for a little to long, and this sure gave me some good ideas on how to controle my dogs barking better. Thankyou~
The video was shot in one setting - about 30 minutes including breaks for the dog. Elaine is not our dog - just a client's, so it would take more practice sessions at home every day for a week or two to really strengthen the behavior.
Thank you for this training video. I am going to start using this right away! I adopted a rescue dog that is easily excitable and he barks at every little noise! Now, my "good" dog who I've had for a year is copying him and starting to bark at everything too and he never did that before. You're absolutely correct that this problem can put even a patient owner (like myself) over the edge. I will let you know how we do! Thank you!
That's why clicker training is so effective. The dog does think it's training you. Who wouldn't feel successful after securing an endless supply of tasty treats?
thats a really cute and clever dog you must be a very nice and CLEVER owner great teaching
When your dog barks quickly after you make your Bark cue, and quiets quickly after you make your quiet cue, the training is pretty much done. Then just do brush up sessions randomly to maintain it over time.
This is the first video I've came across that explained the importance of teaching a dog opposites at the same time and I've watched hours on the subject for about a week now.
I used the methods here to get my dog to stop jumping on my couch unless I ask her to.
Thanks a lot, I will be using this for many different things!
My dog started barking while I was watching this video.
Same
This is a good video. I am studying dog training ATM. Poisitve rewards based training like this is the most effective and scientifically proven. Each session should only be up to 3 minutes at a time but several times a day, depending on the dog. Spraying the dog with water is aversive...so don't do it! They are not learning anything from that and just confusing the dog. A dog feels as though it is their job to alert you to someone coming to the door. So teach them to "quiet" after they have done their job. This video is the way to go...Excellent!
Him: *looks at dog*
Dog: *barks*
Him: treat:)
Thank you for the great video!!! This worked on my 6 month old Chi Chi. He is a well behaved dog at home - cute as can be and gets along great with our big GSD as well as our two children. However, taking him out in public is another story. He thinks he needs to bark at everything that walks by him. I am hoping this will help stop that behavior.
Thank you! We hope to release high quality dog training videos on TH-cam as time allows. We believe that fewer videos but of high quality are more useful to TH-camrs.
Thanks it’s much needed for us. We do need our dog to be a guarding dog but not barking at ppl who are no threat to me so this video is great.
- Was searching for be quiet! CPU coolers.
- Stumbled upon and enjoyed this video ;)
I didn’t think i’d be able to teach my dog either of these but so far I’ve managed to teach her to bark on cue. Now i have to teach her how to be quiet (which is the main reason i came here)
Am I the only one that didn't see the quiet technique work? He knocked, dog barked, he said "shhh" gave treat. Same as earlier, He knocked, dog barked, dog was quiet, he gave treat. How does the dog know that "shh" is quiet? An example would have been, say "shhh", knock, treat dog if he doesn't bark. I understand the "explanation" of training for quiet but this example of quiet was useless.
My reply to iforce2d is relevant to your comment as well: 5:45 is about classically conditioning the dog to expect good things to happen after the quiet signal. Technically I could have just skipped the knocking and just threw up the quiet signal and thrown a treat out. Classical conditioning does not involve specific behaviours. Ring bell, feed dog. Ring bell, drool. Quiet sign, feed dog. Quiet sign, feed dog. Quiet sign - dog stops barking, starts salivating and expecting food rewards. Hope that makes sense.
Treatpouch.com We see you know but maybe you can develop more how to make them quieter still keeping barking if needed.

Clicker training is a technology and method for training animals of all kinds, including dogs. The click indicates to the learner EXACTLY when they have done the correct behavior. We follow up the click with a reinforcement (i.e. treat) so that the dog is reinforced and will want to repeat the behaviour. In this case, we are often clicking for barking because we want to teach the dog to bark, but eventually, only bark when we ask.
Thank you for this: I really appreciate, in addition to the method, the format and style of the video: concise, clean, professional. Is the online school still operating?
Thanks so much for this video! I tried it first thing this morning with my puppy and he got it right away. This made so much since and worked wonderfully.
Awesome video! Thanks!
Oh hello there
Oh hello there!
Hiii
i know Im asking the wrong place but does anyone know of a way to get back into an Instagram account??
I was dumb forgot the account password. I would appreciate any assistance you can offer me.
@Shane Connor Instablaster :)
Great question. Elaine has always been a bit cautious around strangers, even though she was rescued as an 11 week old puppy and even attended our puppy socialization class. When the video was shot I had not seen her for three or four months since puppy class ended.
I use a squirt bottle for my three chihuahuas. I leave the bottle by the front door, when someone comes and they bark I simply pick up the bottle and look at them and they get quiet. I have only sprayed them a couple times with plain water and now they know not to bark, works great.
Can't wait to try this. Our idiots go nuts at every little bump and I'd love to stop them doing it.
***** great question regarding 1:04 vs 5:45. The focus of 1:04 was to get the bark behaviour offered. 5:45 is about classically conditioning the dog to expect good things to happen after the quiet signal. Technically I could have just skipped the knocking and just threw up the quiet signal and thrown a treat out. Classical conditioning does not involve specific behaviours. Ring bell, feed dog. Ring bell, drool. Quiet sign, feed dog. Quiet sign, feed dog. Quiet sign - dog stops barking, starts salivating and expecting food rewards. Hope that makes sense.
Treatpouch.com What a idea...like just nice idea, love this..It is a use full thing..............
Treatpouch.com So, if the classical conditioning just interupts the behaviour for an expected treat, can a single cue be used for everything? Example: Cuing "Drop it" like this guy does: /watch?v=ndTiVOCNY4M The dog basically stops whatever it's doing when it hears "drop." So can that be used for both dropping something and to stop barking? Or is it better to train different commands for these things?
Hope the question makes sense. Great timing with the clicker btw.
Michael Ricks-Aherne You could technically do that, however, I think with a Drop cue, eventually you would want to make reinforcement contingent upon the dog actually letting go of the thing. So in the end, Drop cue means "open your mouth", and then reinforcement occurs. Quiet ultimately is the cue for stop barking/close your mouth. So I would probably train Quiet and Drop separately. Even though initially they are taught in a similar fashion. Hope that helps.
I would strongly recommend proper training for your dog. Think you are implementing efficient and dog friendly approaches?

Ha! Precisely the strategy I have been using with just about every behavior. My reasoning for teaching behavior first has always been that I can then induce it and teach the opposite behavior. This is great.
Would have loved to see the quiet cue actually working in this video.
LOL
Training tricks is a great way to build a relationship with your dog (as well as have a cute little trick to show off lol). Besides, it's not like the dog doesn't benefit, it gets its favourite treat for doing something that comes natural and the owner doesn't have to worry about complaining neighbours XD
For this little video tutorial, we did it in one session. However, it would require additional sessions for days/weeks to follow to really develop fluency for the behaviour. Unfortunately, Elaine is not our dog, so we were unable to train beyond this single session.
I like the trainer's style. He smiled halfway through the video (4:!7) showing us what he really feels.
My dog would be freaking out if I stare at her that way ._.
@BITCOIN SWAMI Unfortunately, these limp wristed new age snowflakes literally don't believe in asserting dominance over dogs. Can't imagine what their kids are like.
I can’t believe a dog training video somehow ended up being political in the comments
1. Yes I am the guy in the video 2. You want to teach your cat to bark? That would be tough. Maybe you can get the cat to meow somehow, and then click/treat. 3. Clickers are commonly sold at pet stores that carry dog products, or online at Amazon and other retailers.
im gonna try this with a miniature poodle when she arrives ill update u guys!
heyyy update sorry for taking so long I totally forgot buttt we tried and it didn't rlly work especially since she didn't bark when we knocked on the wall and stuff but were gonna continue trying good luck guys and stay safe!
maybe when she gets older
@@ThoStolen no I don't think so she's turning four in September!!
Drawing with baran try something else. Something she may not like. For example with my dog we used the vacuum
Hi! I want to say that if this is the first trick you are teaching your dog it will take a lot longer to learn because your dog will need to learn "reinforcement training" while also learning the bark/quiet trick. However, if you've successfully taught other tricks to your dog before it might just mean more sessions and shorter sessions because you always want their full attention. Also, try to train in an isolated room or space so that there aren't any distractions (aka other reinforcements) other than you. Lastly, your dog might respond to audio demands better such as saying the word "bark" and "quiet." I hope this helped, best of luck!
He said theyd eventually stop barking and go straight to looking for their treat, so he's just associating the signle with good things, so they'll connect it to a reward. You just have to wait til they stop barking, then make them wait awhile while they are quiet to reinforce the hand gesture to the quiet, and a treat. ;)
Yes, demand barking is a good type of barking to apply this training to.
Brilliant demo...exactly how I train it...so impressed and thanks for the video x
I don't use a clicker like you do... I just say "good girl" and praise her a lot and give her treats... Is this ok?
Maloney: of course it's okay. You can also click your tongue. And remember to go easy on the rewards. If you overload her, it can have a troubling effect not to mention overstuff her and make her less ready to accept a more subdued reward. Butyou sound like a great owner. Lucky dog!
The clicker is just a consistent sound that the dog can associate with a "correct answer". Some trainers just say "OK!" emphatically or "Good Boy" or click their tongue. Everything about training is just about cues of some sort as a language barrier gap to create a binary connection between what you want and what you don't want.
That said, reward and praise are two different things and with training, you shouldn't give praise for every correct action. If you do a little research, you'll find that the best dog trainers have a method for separating the two types of reinforcement based on the action being performed.
Clicker is faster and you can click at exact moment when good behavior is done. Good girl is more of a reinforcer than a reward. With clicker the dog learns that click means food is coming and so it becomes an instant reward.
A dog LOVES praise and that affirmation they did good. When they do what we want "quiet!" from barking, using "no" when u catch a bad behavior b4 it happens or "give" when they drop a toy for us , a pat or rub on the chest with a happy praise of
"good girl/boy" works just as well as a treat. You can add treats into this later on when the dog does what we want, hears the command, does it, gets the "good girl/boy" and then their treat. Alternate ur praise and treats so they don't know what type of positive reinforcement they'll receive but will listen to the command for that reward.
brilliant. I'm going to get started on this as my dog desperately needs this
This made my dog bark more
I am definitely trying this. I'll let you know how it goes. Thank you guys for the video
What do you mean “permissions to bark is the que for quite?” I watched the whole video
Dogs don't know what a bark is, they just do it, so you can't exactly tell them to stop barking because they have no idea what you mean. So you have to teach it what barking means. By first making the association to the bark by rewarding them for barking on cue, you then establish control over that action; now they know what you're talking about. So then when you tell them to bark and then immediately follow up with SHUSH, you're teaching them that you are responding to their bark and when they stop barking after you say shush, then they get paid. Now they know that if you shush their bark, they need to be quiet.
The reason that he says shush and then rewards the dog so quickly after he stops barking (that people in this thread don't seem to be understanding) is that if you wait too long, the dog will get confused because he's like "hey you literally just TOLD me to bark but now you're not rewarding me wtf?" So what he's doing is saying Bark! "woof" "ok stop" and then as soon as the dog stops, you notice that the dog is deadlocked on the trainer's face like waiting for the next thing to happen (i.e. he's not barking) and then gets rewarded. Over time, the dog starts to get the pattern that when you say "quiet" that it means to stop barking.
It seems counter-intuitive to some people on this thread because they're thinking that that would be confusing, but dogs don't learn like we learn. They're instinctual, not logical. We train dogs by conditioning through patterns of stimulus->dog response->trainer response (reward or no reward). So then what happens is the dog ends up on auto-pilot. He's not being quiet because he knows what quiet means. He's being quiet because he's been conditioned to stop making noise when he receives a certain cue (vocal or otherwise). This technique of paired cues is basically creating a path to making tricky associations. You sometimes have to associate one thing to another to another to another in order to get to the action you want to control. So here, we associate the knock to the bark to the cue to bark to the cue to not bark, and that's how we control the action of not barking.
Excellent! Thank you! That is what we were taught to do as well. Sadly, dogs in our area are common, but unreliable for training purposes. When walking we rarely have the luxury of seeing the dog approaching from a far enough distance with which to train him at his limit. A dog has to be several blocks away and that just doesn't happen in our complex. But even though we end up seeing dogs well within his comfort zone, we've managed to slowly encourage less reactive behavior.
How do you make a quiet dog bark? Knocking just makes my dog look at me like I am crazy!
+Jossy Smith
Does your dog ever bark? If he or she does, that's when you cue the dog. I used a doorbell.
Umami Mimami
Yes, some new people moved next door with a dog and now she barks at their dog! I wish she didn't. But she is down the back yard when she does that. Since we kept one puppy from her litter we have bigger issues, such as how to stop her (puppy) peeing on the carpet, we are keeping them both outside quite a lot more now.
Jossy Smith The only way to housetrain a puppy, in my humble opinion, is to take them out constantly. My puppy was very good after the first week because I took him out many times a day. Keeping them outside won't stop the peeing because they may associate the opposite (going outside to inside) as when they need to pee. My puppy also barks sometimes when dogs in the neighborhood bark, but that's common.
Umami Mimami
Well we are keeping them mostly outside now, inside they just want to tear around and play together anyway. I only let them stay inside for a short time before taking them both back out. When winter comes we might bring them inside overnight in the other bathroom. Not that we get cold by other countries standards. How cold does it have to be to bother a dog?
when I'm knocking and my dog sees it, she doesn't bark, she knows it's me.
it looks so silly to first teach a dog to bark and than shush, is it not better to teach shush when the dog is barking on his own, and than when it's quit to give him a reward?
Okay so after reading these comments I would just like to say this, and I am not trying to be mean. If you use this technique on your dog it does not matter the age or the breed of the dog. It will work all the same. The only difference is the older the dog the longer it could take for him/her to learn. Plus it just depends on how fast the dog can learn(because I've tot ).
Do you like fast results? Well then this is the perfect training for your dog.
At first I was like “what is this guy doing??” Then step 7 popped up and it clicked. Freaking genius
thank you!
Great video and I know some dogs this will work on, but not my dog. If I knock she just looks at me like I'm weird.
Ch
You just have to find their trigger. For many dogs, a knock or a doorbell will work. If not, then you gotta keep looking for it. I trained my friends dog and he didn't care about knocks either. I had to bark at the dog to get him to bark and that was the thread to pull on. I felt ridiculous, but that's what had to be done.
By training a dog to bark and then not to bark gives you control over the behavior. Like a faucet, on again and off again. It is the learning process for the dog to help the it to understand when it is appropriate to bark.
I still watch this because my maltese bark all the time
No, because as the video says, you can use the cue to bark to reinforce quiet. Or, you could use other types of rewards that aren't food. Or, only reward the dog with treats randomly. You should check out our online courses to lean more about reinforcement. It's not just food.
LOL your dog doesn't bark. I know some owners that would DREAM to have that problem!!
Very informative, and detailed. I enjoy how this video actually shows progress, and teaches in a more scientific manner than other videos. I feel this video will be much easier to incorporate into my training because of this. Thank you for making this video.
Hi, please help me! I'm about to buy an antibarking collar for my dog, but I think they might be cruel, the thing is, that I live with my yorkshire in an appartment, my dog is great, we walk 3 times a day, but every time that I have to go out and leave him alone, he wont stop barking until I return! my neighbors are getting angry with me, I dont know how to teach him not to bark when Im not there, its like separation anxiety I guess... please help us! :(
I have the same problem with my rescued Staffie. He was rehomed 6 months ago, and probably he might be still afraid we'd abandon him. Can't leave him anywhere for even a 5 seconds...
that means that your dog is demanding of you which is good because it shows your in charge. the only suggestion i have is to restrain him just so he cant move in his chest and neck but make sure not to hurt him but do it till he stops and after this practice go outside see if he barks and repeat the sequence tell me if this helped
yes it sounds like separation anxiety, It will require counter conditioning and desensitization to your departures. It's got nothing to do with who's in charge. SA is a disorder, not a pack leader bullshit thing. They miss your proximity is all. You'll have to teach them to cope without your presence. Good luck. I'm working on a case right now and it's going to take months!
Very helpful even though many 🐕 owners can't train their pooches well on command of using the word, "Quiet" in times of when they fail to stop barking. 👏🏻 Sometimes, many people who own 🐕s end up using negative reinforcement to let their pets run amuck and bark nonstop. 👍🏻 if you agree in regards to why everyone not just me are afraid of 🐕s.
How do i stop my dog from passing gas in the car? Its becoming a problem and I no longer want to take him on rides. I think he is doing it on purpose and Im sick and tired of this shit
Mack Ryan it may be due to his diet-if you're feeding him a lot of human food or a dog food with a lot of grain that might impact him.
ilikeceral3 thank you
Of course he isn't doing it on purpose. His diet is your responsibility. Also it could be because he is anxious and is swallowing air. Please train your dog in a calm manner and don't take out your bad moods on your dog.
You need to show your dominance....fart louder and stronger than your dog....let him know who the alpha is....hope this helps
roflmao sorry,but this is funny
this guy has an awesome voice for tutorials!
I dont even have a dog... why am I watching this
me too but I'm getting one soon 😂😂😂
I have a Yorkie. Good luck to who's getting a dog.
If you want to teach your dog to hug just put your arms a part and go up to your dog
Taylor Law Im getting a yorkie soon 😂
I am going to be able to get the dog that I want in 15 days and I will be getting a German Shepherd a guarding dog
nicely done. nice dog, please remember that safety is first for both.
This is really awkward to watch because when you're staring your dog down like that its clearly making it nervous. There were a couple of instances where he barked and ran away with his tail down. Then came back quickly for more treats...you're sending mixed signals. You already created a cue the step before you added the cue. Your cue was when you stare your dog down hes supposed to bark. Not a good idea. Then you switched the cue...
Also it seems that the dog could confuse the knocking with a barking cue the way you are training the quiet cue. You're treating after he barks at the noise even though you're making the quiet cue. I would like to see a demonstration of a dog who knows this really well. Im not so convinced
***** I'm staring because I need to watch very closely for the physical signs that Elaine is going to bark, so that I can time the click when she actually barks. If it makes you feel better you can do it via video camera or put sunglasses on if you wish.
Treatpouch.com so you do not see the signs of nervousness in this dog? Or do you think they're irrelevant? It seems unnecessary the intense eye contact you're giving the dog who doesn't even know you
Next time I make a new version, I'll wear sunglasses. Thank you have a great day.
***** i think you`r right, it looks unsure.
so jumpy 4:21
GoZuHaZa yeah I think it's best for a dog to be comfortable before you begin training tricks. If the dog is unsure. Not a good idea to move forward
Your response already has the answer. She barks because she knows you're on the other side. That's the behaviour. The consequence is you go out there and give her attention. She even looks happy. That's the reinforcement. She's barking to get you to come out and scold her, which you interpret as punishment, but she considers reinforcement.
Why is that dog so scared of him?
She doesn't look scared of him at all... Have you seen what a scared dog looks like?
Amazing, taught him in a matter of half an hour. He got bored, but I we will do it again tomorrow.
I kinda think that the dog is confused ah.. And bark to ask for more treats. I don't think this work
me too!!! Dogs cant understand like we do they can only be trained with basic steps
choon550 It works it just takes forever...oh and i would leave out the step where his cue is to stare his dog down to get him to bark....horrible conditioning idea
It's not conditioning, it's a control method for the training session. It cues the dog to do *something* that you can respond to. Since he started by knocking on the wall and that caused a bark and then a treat, the dog is now expecting a bark to lead to a treat. Since he's not knocking anymore, but just staring, the dog gets frustrated and goes back to a bark to get the treat, which is what you want because you're trying to make an association to the bark. All he's doing is gradually teaching the dog that this session is about the bark (not the knock) by first triggering the bark (the dog just barks at the knock, he doesn't know why, he just does) and then controlling the bark by slowly changing the cue. Now that he can cue the bark without the aid of the wall, he can control the association to the bark by a hand gesture which allows him to move on to signaling quiet.
The entire point is to gain control of the cue so that future associations can be made. The staring is just a middle point where he's changing the cue. It's not something that continues.
I'd add a word of praise with the treats and try not to stare the dog down(sign of dominance), so the dog has fun while learning!
ha was barking all the time.. I never seen clear footage where you showed him shhh and dog actually listened..
hi everyone ,if anyone else wants to learn about guide for puppy training try Jaffacter Simple Dog Coach (do a search on google ) ? Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my m8 got excellent results with it.
He barked . Then stopped at the sign . He didn't continue barking .that was the trick
That was the dog trying to figure out the cues. This is a dog being trained, not a dog that's already trained...
That is a great observation. I am glad you noticed that. We don't use any physical violence or intimidation in our training. Elaine is wary of strangers; she has always been a cautious puppy. I am not Elaine's owner - she doesn't know me at all. I was just borrowing her for the shoot.
You are still rewarding the bad behavior when he barks when you want him to be quiet. I guess I'm not understanding or seeing how this helps him be quiet.
lol you're not getting it. He's not training bad behavior, he's gaining control of the cue! By rewarding the dog when he barks, you're associating the bark to a reward -- now he knows it's about the bark. Then you gradually change the cue and only reward when he barks on command. That alone will make most dogs bark less on their own because they're not be paid to bark unless you tell them to. From that point on, you can now make them bark and then signal a quiet and then only reward when they're quiet. You couldn't do that if they didn't know it was about the bark to begin with. So then you have taught them when to bark and when when to stop barking. It's not really that complicated.
Very clever dog training technique to stop barking dog nuisance. Keep up the good work!
I just say stop or shut up my dog stops.
I want to teach my dogs to bark on cue and be quiet on cue. So, thanks for sharing this tutorial!
that guy looks so depressed holy shit!
I never imagined I'd she another like my dog stash until I came across your video with your dog Elaine ! They could be twins ! I would love to send a pic of him to show you how much they resemble one another.
It is used as a marker. You have the dog associate the marker with getting a reward. When the dog does what you have asked, you click, then reward. its like the marker "yes" or "good Job" it lets the dog know they are doing what you want. i always recommend it in my trainer though training can be done without it.
"Paired" cues are so under-used in the dog training world! I used "Up" & "down" in the same session to teach my dog when he can jump up and it ended polishing up he's "settle down" cue so much more than I thought. [I learned about this from clickertraining.com & Don't Shoot The Dog by Karen Pryor.]
Excellent video, I will be trying this later.
This is a very important set of skills to teach your dog to understand. I am very grateful that you have a stoic demeanor - the only other video I found that was decent with a very hyperactive man that I found hard to watch.
super helpful! have a problem with our lab barking when he wants something. (so constantly) can't wait to try this out!
Good training
If I want to buy more time between repetitions, feeding on the floor forces the dog to move away, and buys me a few seconds to get ready for the next repetition. If I feed to mouth, then the pace of the training would increase as Elaine could bark very quickly after getting a treat. So depending on what you are training and what your setup looks like, feeding to mouth may not always be optimal.
Excellent video!!
I have taught this to my dog today and it was successful thanks!
@xblackdog my advice would be once your dog is used to the click then treat, then start taking away the treat and praise him/her by petting and saying good boy or good girl.
