    This is SUCH an important video because it depicts actual reality of owning a puppy. By the way…80 pounds and still growing!?!? YIKE!! Also every time that dog looks at the camera you can’t help but smile and laugh at how cute he is…☺️

      He'll probably more than double that weight when fully grown.

      One of the guys i know at the local dog park has one of these at 2 yrs old and he's 200 lbs. Absolute beast of a dog. Super sweet.

    This video added another level of understanding and helped me to make the separation in my mind between trained and just “being a puppy”.

    I needed this so much. I felt like I was failing my dog because he is obedient, but when we aren't training he is a velociraptor LOL. Thank you so much Tom!

    As a owner of a 7 month old Irish Red Setter, this video was needed! Obedience, staying in place, walking on leash etc is all going well. But he's still a puppy who wanna chew on things and try to eat the catfood on the counter!

    My Corgi puppy didn’t even turn into a dog until she was almost 2 years old despite having good obedience, socialization, and exercise. She had so much energy and was into everything. Now she’s 4, and she is awesome, but I’m not sure I ever want to have a puppy again!!

  • @brightshiningstar624

    So appreciate the transparency of this training. We DO get frustrated with puppy life so it's good to get affirmation that we're not failing....just have to be present and consistent. Thank You Tom 🐾

    It’s really helpful to see what realistic expectations should be. I’ve been heavily working with my GSD puppy and at times I feel like I’m failing her, but other times I think she’s amazing. It’s easy to forget that immaturity is immaturity, and it’s totally okay.

    This is something that I really need. My dog is turning a year tomorrow and he behaves exactly like this. I just realized I was being frustrated to him for a year when I shouldnt have and those moments could have been a much better experience for both of us.

    I’ve got a 5 month German shepherd puppy and this video so far has been amazing.
    My puppy has amazing obedience too, but that puppy brain sometimes just takes over.
    The good news is is that even during zoomies and witching hour she will listen to obedience commands. Even though the moment I twitch too fast she is off back to playing “you can’t catch me dad!”

    We have a 9month old Boerboel cross Mastino Napoletano. Not our first rodeo with this breed or mix. She is a pain in the butt sometimes but also the sweetest gal. We crate trained her from day one. Makes life so much more relaxed. Not having to worry about her hurting herself when we are not around.
    Its kind of like putting a baby in a cot. You know they're safe and its only for a while.
    Keep loving big boy they thrive on gentle hands and a lot of patience and thanks for sharing and keeping it real.
    Our girl still gets into puppy mischief, loves stealing our shoes and running off with them, teasing the cats, still wants to mouth our hands. All part of the puppy life. 😂 Wouldn't have it any other way. Being 9months and just a big clumbsy, stubborn lovable furrball

    Love boerboels, they are by far the best guard, family, protection work ect of the mastiff breeds and other large dogs. When trained properly, given a purpose, an adequate size yard ect to patrol N guard ect they are the best & if they come from a working line breeder ect are impressive at bite work, protection work ect. Have found they are a more handler sensitivite of the mastiff working/guard/protection breeds and need to wait till theyre older than corso, gsd, dobermans ect. Cant be rushed and have to let their bodys, bones, joints ect mature properly before starting intense training and exercise for them.

    I've fostered 133 pit bull puppies over the last nine years, and this is my reality. Puppies chew on EVERYTHING. I buy dog beds two and three at a time. 🙂 I thought that my current foster puppy was over the bed chewing thing and put out a new one yesterday. (I have four dogs of my own, so there are a lot of beds in the house.) A half hour later, there was bed stuffing all over the living room. And I can't begin to tell you how many dozens and dozens of throw rugs have been peed on and chewed up. It's a good thing they're cute, or...

  • @tiabarrett2998
    @tiabarrett2998 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    YES!!! Thank you for this - Getting puppies into adulthood is much like parenting, requiring diligence and patience and teaching accountability. Thankfully this phase is shorter, (!!) but no less important. Thank you for showing that laying the foundation is the key to a great dog. So valuable.

    @MA-xd9zl 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    My puppy is almost 4 months, 1 month that he arrived and I’m constantly reminding myself he’s just a baby, it’s fine. He already learned on the first day where to potty and that was my main concern, he’s starting to bark but for attention when I don’t allow him to steal something (usually some fabric) and I say no and don’t give attention and he already gets that the barking get me looking at him but no play or anything valuable but communication, and he stops. This channel have helped me a lot on being so fast on training him and it does help that he’s a working line German shepherd, it’s been really nice doing it with him.

    @LexieEthier 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Love, love, LOVE this!! 🙌 I have a 5 month old gsd, I’m a newish trainer (~1yr) and I really needed this reminder! No one really talks about this part like this. I find myself getting frustrated and questioning my very existence far more often than I thought I would lol. A lot of what you talked about I’ve known to an extent or on a surface level, but to actually see you dealing with all the same shit I am rn is so helpful, as is being reminded that it’s all normal puppy stuff that’ll subside with time and guidance!
    P.S. you’re the reason I became a prof dog trainer, so thank you for everything you do! The way you teach and explain things made everything just click for me, and I knew this is what I was meant to do. I’m so grateful to have found you and your videos, they pretty much changed my life in all the best ways 😊

  • @Be_Sinful_
    @Be_Sinful_ 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I have a 5 month old GSD (suspected Mal mix ) and I have been watching your channel since 2019, When I first got into training with my older GSD. The week after I brought home my puppy I saw your first Burleigh video and it has been so reasuring to me after not having a puppy for 9 years. To see the realness of your experience being so similar to mine. I’ve never trained a puppy with the expectation of her just being a puppy before, It has been a totaly different experience. Focusing on relationship and a solid foundation, guidance and patience, with the needed resiliance and stubborness to match. Thank you for creating great content, can’t wait to continue watching! Long time fan

    Great video, Tom. A simple message but easy to forget.
    We rescued a 3 month old (now 18 months) German shepherd/pitbull and she was very smart, took to training right away, but that puppiness made our lives chaotic for the first 6 months. It was almost unbearable at times. Now, she is an absolute joy. A very intelligent and obedient young dog.
    Thank you for your videos, Tom. They got us through some very difficult times 💜

    Tom,
    Watched your videos for a long time when I was training my Aussie. We recently got another puppy and jumped back on your page. Come to find out we also have a 5-1/2 month old boreboel! So awesome!

  • @bram461
    @bram461 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

    Boerboels are different. They mature slowly. The shift mentally and emotionally between 2-3 years is almost like having a different dog. His confidence and own sense of what is right and wrong comes to the fore. Depending on how everything went before that, it can be a good or bad thing.

  • @martineo9638
    @martineo9638 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Ohmy....a boerboel LOL.
    I babysat a boerboel for years, great dog but omg the mind on those!
    To me and all he saw as his he was the sweetest log of a dog. I owned an 15 pound dog and since that was a senior the boerboel had all the respect for him. He made sure my dog ate before he did.
    I also love the style they protect, never harm, just warn, until someone wants to harm....they go full protect mode.
    I am a real small dog owner but I loved that impossible log of a dog

    I have a half Malinois who just turned 4 months so this is very comforting lol😭 she’s smart and can learn anything fast but she’s still very distracted and has days where she acts like she’s never learned manners in her life. Randomly decided dogs and strangers in public are scary and started growling when she sees them at a distance so we’re working on that

    I wish I had had this 2 years ago!! I thought I was failing my corso because I had a very well trained puppy in obedience, but was a nightmare when we weren’t training, even with meeting with trainer consistently. She’s now 2 and finally where I’m not constantly battling the frustrations of daily life. This was very encouraging and realistic.

    @marinamar3367 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Thank you so much for this video, it helps put things into perspective! It actually made me more confident with what I have accomplished so far with my pup (6 month Greek Shepard). But he is not as stubborn as Burleigh! We have managed to eliminate the obsessive chewing on my furniture and hands, but it looks like it is more a personality thing rather than training. I have followed your videos on walking on a leash and he walks like a champ with minimum equipment, very focused on me, doesn't pay attention to other dogs and other things going around. So thank you very much for that 🙂
    Keep these videos coming!

    This video is so helpful as I have the same experience with my cane corso puppy. She is well trained thanks to Kasen and your team, but still does annoying puppy things. It helps to know those puppy things are normal even with a trained puppy, as are the other struggles of a large breed.

  • @allieb1621
    @allieb1621 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Videos like this, with the associated commentary, are so beneficial in learning to live with a new puppy and all owners of young dogs need to see this video. Puppies are not born fully trained, they need help to learn how to fit into family and community life and even with that help (even by such an experienced professional trainer/owner and often with specialised training), at times it's a fact they're still puppies and that's what makes them adorable and creates those fun memories - even those involving damage to prized possessions the human forgot to put away. 🤫🤐
    Burleigh is a great advocate for seeing this wonderful and sometimes exasperating puppy stage. Thanks Tom for sharing this video.

  • @aprilpurplenight
    @aprilpurplenight 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    love your videos. this one especially really helped me understand that immaturity isn't fixable, it's just a part of it and something you work with. i have a 5 month old corgi pup who is so brilliant and obedient, but her immaturity strikes her often in public settings. i now know this is normal and okay, and something we will get past once she grows up a little bit! i have learned so much from your videos and they have also confirmed my own "method/theory" i use while training. speak to the animal in their language, not just with words but with your body as well. i communicate with my pup how an alpha wolf/dog would and put her in her place if she's being bad, but on the flip side give her all the human love and rewards when she does something good. it has worked wonders for training horses and has now worked wonders for me training my dog. i will be investing in an e collar to continue my training like you have recommended and i'm excited to try it! thank you for the wonderful and readily available training advice.

  • @Kate-cr1fz
    @Kate-cr1fz 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    This is a great video. I have a 60kg 18 month old dominant male Rottweiler and I fully agree with everything Tom says in this. Large dogs are slow to mature, it’s 2 steps forward and 1 step back, but when they finally get it together, it’s extremely rewarding. Once my Rottweiler is 2+ years old I will be adding a boerboel and going through it all again.

  • @hivemindgoblin8540
    @hivemindgoblin8540 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I appreciate this more than I can say! I have a 7 month old husky mix puppy, and I’ve been following along with these puppy videos since I got him. His obedience is decent, but he’s a menace in the house and I was getting extremely frustrated and started feeling like I was doing something wrong. It sounds silly now but I really didn’t think that trainers still had these home problems with their puppies. Mine climbs EVERYTHING (think he’s part kelpie) including counters, mouths me, and tears up toys like there is no tomorrow. I’m so glad that this is still expected at his age.

  • @davidhamilton5689

    I never liked e collars because I didn’t understand how they were used - I just upgraded to a Dogtra and it’s awesome! I have my poodle trained to use the pager to mean “come find me” and it’s been a game changer for our park trips and he is so confident compared to before when he’d panic if he couldn’t find me - now he knows I’m nearby and looking for him too!

    Thank you for sharing this. This helps us feel better about our experience. Our standard doodle is now 2-1/2 and recently matured enough that we noticed a distinct change and he is desiring to obey commands in a better way. It’s like a lightbulb turned on for him (or maybe distracting light bulbs turned off) and perceiving this gave us insight to communicate better in managing lingering behaviors. It now feels like everything we’ve done in training the past 2-1/2 years is coming together and working and he can still be our sweet goofball.

    Adopted at 6 months from a farm, my 18 month old lab/aussie shepherd never really chews on anything. There was a phase where he licked and gingerly nibbled on our baseboards but we nipped that in the bud pretty quick. He’s still struggling with leash walking, categorically refuses to ‘down’, is hit or miss on ‘place/stay’ though we’re working on that, and destroys all his toys (superchewer!) with great gusto. Perfect dog? No. Still a puppy? Yes. And that requires not only consistent training but a ton of understanding and patience! Thank you for all your insight. 😊

    I have a 6-year old rotweiller that i have trained since 2 months old. During his puppy stage, i did teach him the "leave it" and "drop" commands for several reasons. First, his safety. Second our sanity. I also taught him using the "trade-off" method. Treats were used as well, however, i wanted him to know the difference between my stuff and his stuff. I can place a new item next to his toy box now and he will explore it. However, he will leave it alone because i haven't given him permission to "take it." My house is nicely decorated and the headboard of my bed has a few stuffed animals on it. My rottie and my shih tzu do not touch them because they have both been taught the difference between what is theirs and what is mine. I have had my fur babies since they were pups. Kali, the Shih Tzu is now 13 years old. Buster, the Rotweiller is now 6. It's a matter of trust and respect, and boundaries between the dog and the owner.

    Burleigh is so big and adorable! Thanks for the honesty about the puppy stage struggles, I think it makes the rest of us feel a bit better. We just made it out of the “velociraptor stage” with our husky pup at about 7 month. Thought the nipping/chewing would never end, regardless of our corrections. 🫠

    Love seeing this and the transparency. I have a Corso a little over a year and he's great now. Loves people, well trained on e-collar, etc and reminds me a lot of Burliegh but the first year and even a bit now he's still a pain in the ASS. Wants to chew stuff and gets bored and just has to be doing something. Regardless of obedience, he's still a puppy in his mind. Loves to wrestle and teeth as well and doesn't realize being over 120Lbs doesn't feel good! lol but I love him. But looking back I'm glad that 4 month-1 year phase is behind. He calmed down quite a bit and is starting to grow up.

    Tom, thanks again. My boerboel puppy is now 4 months, and he's so much fun. But he's a handful also. I've been using your technique, and it is a major difference

    Thank you for this. It's very reassuring to know that even you, a professional trainer, have the same puppy struggles as we have. I'm starting to see light at the end of the puppy tunnel with my 18 month old Lab mix. I've lost count of the number of dog beds & blankets she's killed.
    The best thing I did was crate train her. She loves her crate, it is not punishment at all, it is her safe place. The problem is she has trouble settling down anywhere else in the house. The prong collar was a game changer for us. Again, not punishment, she knows that we are going for a walk and is eager to have that collar on.

    Great video good information. I've been watching you for some time now. I have a 15 mo. old border collie. Extremely smart. He was 6 mo. When I got him and scared of everything and everyone. He does great me not as good. But he is good for me😊

    My Rottweiler is about ages with Burley and it's something I've had to come to terms with as I'm the one training her, all past dogs were trained by my dad entirely, coming to terms with, yeah she'll do everything I say BUT she's still a puppy who's still going to be excited to meet other dogs, chew things in the house, chase stuff when it moves quickly (like kids or me or people jogging or people cycling)
    Sometimes it does make the training feel like it's failing but trusting in the "she's just young" is certainly difficult. Your videos have been a great help here n' there though!

    Great video. With my smaller pups, I would use frozen baby washrags to help with the teething. It would help numb some of their discomfort. For Burleigh's size, it may have to be a small hand towel. 😂

    Thanks for posting this. My boy is about as obedient as your puppy, but still likes to "munch" on random things in the house. I thought I was doing something wrong because he still does.

    Wow, what a huge beast. Right now I can’t have a dog, but if the day ever came, I think I would aim for a 2y old, easy trainable breed or mix. Chapeaux to your work, but I am sure, I could not even raise an easy breed puppy. All the best for your family and greetings from Germany

    I also have a Lokota-type mindset dog and then got a boxer x staffy, he's two now, same colouring as your boy and have since learned: There are two types of dogs: The working dog and the What's-in-it-for-me dog! The second type is a cunning creature lol
