This guy is EXCELLENT ... by far the best expert on dog training I have seen on TH-cam.
Agree!
So true !
@@nikolaiarnaudov3785 Cesar's approach to training dogs is archaic and backward - he relies on the need to dominate the dog. No modern trainer uses this approach anymore, verbal markers and positive reinforcement is the most effective approach. I agree, this dude is excellent, I can also highly recommend Stonnie Dennis.
Zak George is also really good
i see you’ve never heard of fraser
I felt so guilty when he said it was my fault, and I dont even have a dog!
Toki Toki 😂😂😂😂
lol, me too
Friends have you tried HowToTrainYourDog5.blogspot.com I think this website has the best dog training program I ever found on the internet Recommended to all…
But he's right...lol

I was consistent and provided lots of structure when my boxer was a puppy and he is SUCH a good boy. I never let him have free roam of the house or the yard until he was completely potty trained. he either was kept in the room that I was in or on a leash and I took him on a leash everytime to the same spot to potty outside. he slept in his crate every night and never whimpered. I also knew I didn't want a dog that begged for my food every time I sat down at the dinner table so I never give him anything off my plate and therefore he does not get into the trash can. I fed him in his crate to associate it with positivity and that is still where he eats and sleeps today. I didnt allow him on the furniture and we had to work on him not learning to jump up on people. 5 years later he is perfectly well behaved and so easy to take anywhere. he is polite and of course now I give him more leniency and allow him on the couch and bed occasionally. Its so nice to have a dog that is so polite and precious, but I know that had I not trained him this way as a puppy he would have turned out completely different
Hi Hannah. Love that you said at the end there, "Its so nice to have a dog that is so polite and precious, but I know that had I not trained him this way as a puppy he would have turned out completely different." I could not have said it better myself! thanks for sharing! And great work, BTW!
I have a boxer heeler mixed and I wish i would’ve done what you did. He is so stressful at times lol
Xalways ChillinX I got the same dog how old is yours
I think it's awful not allowing dogs on the furniture. It's hard on their bodies. And studies show, people who sleep with dogs are healthier.
So key is really training them young
"It's your fault." YES THANK YOU OMG I LOVE THIS CHANNEL ❤️❤️❤️😍😍😍😍
Sourjolly
Claireeds0 oh yeah yeah
There needs to be a way to make this video mandatory to watch before being allowed to own a dog.
I am making a point to recommend these whenever my shelter adopts out.
Hi @Evangelina Byrd I definitely agree with you. I have lived with dogs for a very long time and they all have been the same breeds but different generation of lines behind the dogs. I have owned Irish Setters, Sussex Spaniels, Aussies and currently own a Harlequin Great Dane. Each breed has a mind of their own and we had to teach them how to behave properly. Such as teaching the Sussex how to wait for his food so he doesn't take it out of our hands (He is 2 so he still is young but has been getting much better) and we followed the same technique for the rest of our dogs. We have seen great improvement and they all can eat food near one another without trying to steal the others foods. I have been following the different tips and tricks @Simpawtico Dog Training has done and have greatly appreciated it!
Evangelina Byrd agreed
Hi Guys watch video on here .. DogTrainingSeries.blogspot.com ... How To Train Your Own Dog at home
All of you are right I just got a dog it is so cute🥰🥰
You should do a video about the first days/weeks with a new puppy!
Alright the best quote from Ian in this video for me is -"if a dog misbehaves in your home, it's your fault". Totally agree. Educate thyself and persevere. If anything these videos reminds me to take more time out to bond with my old girl who's 15 and a real inspiration. It's pretty heartbreaking when you hear Olive previous owner giving up.
Thanks, Rin Tin. Wow 15!? Yup, love that girl up. And the longer we have Olive the more signs of neglect and irresponsible ownership we discover. She's a sweetheart and a good girl, but she's working through some stuff that's all directly related to bad owners. Thanks for being one of the good ones!
Having a last minute check in before we collect our puppy in 2.5 hours!! Feel so much more prepared having watched your videos over the last few weeks... thank you!!!!
You got this!
Olive going up and down those basement stairs is the best thing ever ❤️
I'm adopting my first dog ever next week and i think this video will make our life together way easier ! Thank you so much for all your awesome work !!
You're welcome!
I get my first dog tomorow. I'm also so so greatful for your videos!
hows it doing?

This is AWESOME INFORMATION! I had my Precious Furbaby for 16 years and it's been one year since I put him to rest. I am still HEARTBROKEN!! I finally am thinking about getting another Furbaby, I promised my Magic when the time comes I will adopt/rescue from the shelter and I found this video to be Extremely Helpful with Creating Structure in the home🙏❤
Happy to help! I know it's hard to get another dog after losing one so precious, but they often help you heal and pay the love forward!
Would love to hear tips for pee training for folks living in an apartment where it’s tough to get outside quickly.
Great tips. I've adopted adult dogs from shelters because I knew I didn't have the time at home for a puppy. But now that I'm working home full time I'm looking into adopting a puppy and I totally agree about the structure. Start with a lot of structure and boundaries, and they can earn more freedom as a reward for positive behaviors. The second adult dog I adopted had a lot of food aggression (she was previously in an animal hoarding case and had to fight for food). We implemented a rule that she had to sit say during feeding time and couldn't eat until our other dog had finished eating. She learned VERY FAST to behave at mealtime and the food aggression stopped within a week.

HANDS DOWN the best dog tip channel on youtube. I can tell you work hard on no only the content but the editing and structure that goes into these videos. Keep it up and THANK YOU!!!!
Thank you, Trace!
Yep, agree!
Great tips!!
I also really appreciated seeing Black families in this!
You are a life saver!
I made a big mistake.. I adopted a 1 year old untrained working-dog as a first-time dog-owner... naively thinking she had already learned the basics, and naively thinking I would manage since I do have experience training horses. Turns out I adopted a 25kg puppy with puberty behaviour and no basic skills.. and absolutely zero experience to rely on concerning dog training. So while I was wondering how to teach her sit, stay etc.. I completely missed the point where horses are kept in stables and round pens until they know how to behave and I did not give het ANY directions about houserules. The misbehaviour had already started when luckily I found your video's. We've started over and are doing much much better now ❤️
EXCELLENT! Glad to hear it! Good on you for noticing and starting a new program!
For puppies, biting should definitely be a thing to focus on since they all do it. Great video
This video was a great help to me as i just adopted a five year old rescue Havanese. She knew absolutely nothing as she had been kept in a cage all of her life and was never socialized. Thank you and I will be sure to watch more of your excellent videos.
Olive going up and down the stairs cracked me up😂 great angle!
Just found your channel because we have a new puppy. So wish this video existed 7 years ago when we got our first special needs dog from the shelter. Thank you for all your great educational videos, they are a huge asset to the dog caretaker community.
Thank you for the generous feedback. It's my pleasure.
Truly happy that Olive have found her new home in you and your family. So far what I'm hearing from your videos are solid advice with a whole lot of caring. Keep it real and you can count on our support. Thumbs up👍
me too
😎
@@ethanarceneaux8460 swme
I’m in the process of adopting a dog, I will be a first time dog owner, and the information out there is overwhelming. I appreciate how you presented all of this like you were talking to an idiot n0ob like myself. Now I feel way less anxious going into it.
How is your new dog now? 1 year since your comment. Did you survive ?! Lol
@@EvangeliumDiSilenti haha yes, she is currently snuggling with me right now. Adopted a Chihuahua who is more cat than dog, surprisingly easy to manage, doesn’t care to learn any commands but also has little negative behaviors living most of her life burrowed under a blanket. Came from the foster already leash and potty trained. She’s my perfect little starter dog. 😂
I can speak first hand to dogs being very location specific! I confused the HELL out of my 10 yr old rotty by buying and moving into the house right nextdoor to our old one, which has a shared driveway with the old one. Suddenly we were going right upon arriving home instead of left. It took a good 2 weeks for him to start automatically going in the right direction. For a while he'd sit right in the middle of the driveway while I unloaded the groceries or what have you... looking back and forth between both porches wondering which way I was gonna go.
good to hear, I am going to do this to my new dog soon. I've been a little worried about it. We will share the same yard as the place we are in now and be in the same building, but different apartment. I am sure it will be confusing!
Probably the best, introducing a new pack member to your home video I've seen. Good job man.
Wow, thanks!
"Its your fault" my heart dropped and I don't even have a dog....😂😂
You deserve more subscribers!
Hershey's Adventures Agreed😊👍
I like it a lot and it's so cute
deffinetly😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎
Boy, I'm ao happy to have watched this only three days after bringing our puppy-girl schnauzer home. Most useful tips ever. Tomorrow some things will be changed 'for the greater good of everyone'. Thanks, man
Glad it was helpful!
My wife and I just rehomed a 2 year old lurcher cross from our local rescue. Dozens of Simpawtico videos have helped us make this potentially challenging experience a seamless, easy and enjoyable process! Ian is a captivating educator with a wealth of knowledge and quick tips that have formed the backbone of how we show our love and care for our new family member! I'd be so lost without these beautifully edited and well structured vides!!
I feel the same!!
Appreciate the priorities. Learning to read a new GS pup’s cues and I like the consistency work - also loved the puppy bite video.
Thank you so very much for reinforcing what I have been trying to teach the next generation
The same thing happened to my rescue dog! He was a 2 year old stray, and the original owner was found but he didn’t want him back. 😭 He was also underweight, not neutered, not potty trained, and was so sick he would constantly puke (we didn’t have access to knowing his old dog food, so we had to create a food plan). Since we were new pet owners, we definitely made some mistakes (I WISH I had found this video when we first found him!) mostly in how to play with him, because at first he didn’t even know what toys were! But this video made me feel so much better about how far he’s come in less than 6 months. He’s now a healthy weight, neutered, not barfing anymore, on a strict eating and walking schedule, potty trained, crate and bedtime trained, respects restricted areas even when the puppy gate is not up, and has been learning his basic commands like come, sit, stay, wait, take it, drop it, leave it, let go while playing and heel while walking. We are still dedicated to getting him trained even more once we get vaccinated for Covid, and sociable with other people and animals, but we’re so very happy he’s made such amazing progress! He’s such a good boy now and I’m so very proud of him! 🥰🥰🥰
I just adopted an adult rescue dog.Hes' been with me three days. Today I came across your channel and subscribed. My management of Brat ( a Boston Terrier/Rat Terrier mix)so far is just what you've explained in this video. He's well behaved, quiet ,attentive and very friendly. i've left him alone for up to an hour and neighbors say they've not heard a peep from himI hope he'll continue this behavior. i'm going out to get him a crate and some toys tomorrow.Thanks for all the good advice!
You are making so much sense
You’re awesome dude! This really helped me gain confidence in the things I was doing right and how to correct the mistakes. More importantly I shared this with my wife and four kids so we can all be in the same page. I’m no dog trainer, but I do know we’ve had much more success when everyone in the house is on the same page. Thanks!
I'm 64 and I just adopted Chevy a 1 yr old Boxer. My first pet EVER. I picked him up yesterday and although I had a child she is now an adult...I've forgotten things LOL.
Your video was the first video I've watched and you gave GREAT TIPS. TY!!!
Olive on the stairs - so cute 😄
im getting my first dog today, and although i had read a lot about how to first introduce your new puppy to the house, nothing comes close to this. thank you so much for making this video, it was very well explained and as a first time owner, it was easy to understand! i literally cannot say thank you enough
I am getting a dog a week from now and I remembered that you had a video about the first days. So good, gives me some peace of mind and a lot of things to think through :) Thanks!
Really appreciate this!
Thank you so much for doing videos on newly adopted/rescued dogs!!!
I adopted a small dog but he’s afraid to go out. I try and he’s a nervous reck. He also has separation anxiety help!
I've always referred top this video! We recently adopted a 9 month old terrier mix from our local shelter. He seems to be a very energetic yet anxious dog. This video has been a guide into understanding his behavior! I'm so happy we stumbled to your channel!
Thank you so much for these tips
I have taken on a 3 year old she snarled and snapped at me first meeting 😮💨
A few months later she is a Velcro dog, but I’ve taught her ‘place’ when I want her to go to her place where she has a chew etc.
We do sooo much of various stuff too.
Lots of walks and adventures 😊
She use to wee & pee all over the place.
Now she knows potty time is varied times early am etc
She now goes to the door if she wants out 😃
She use to tremble uncontrollably she still does but it considerably less noticeable.
She is a fast learner and an absolute pleasure.
We really enjoy each other’s company.
She’s seriously adorable.
We have Morning - night routine.
She’s an Angel…
I'm going to recommend this to our adopters! Dude is awesome!
Thanks for the tips. We'll eventually add a smaller dog to our family who'll hopefully join Story in testing toys!
Simply the best! 👍😎
Realy good video, thank you for all the valuable advices.
Going to be adopting a puppy in a week, and I’m very grateful for these videos. Thank you!
Thank you so much. I'm getting a Husky in just under 4 weeks and want to get my thoughts in order before she gets here. This video has been so informative and helpful. Now it's time to look through more of your videos :)
What a fabulous video !
We’ve a new puppy coming in a bit over a week and this is hugely helpful 😊
Getting a new doggo from my aunt in a few days, had to watch this so I can make sure he loves it here😇
Good luck!
This is probably the best, most informative new dog video I’ve watched! Definitely subscribing!
Nice video. I wished I would have found you a couple of weeks ago. None the less, I am happy to have found you now. Nice video, great content! Looking forward to watching more video. We are brining home our first dog ( a rescue dog) tomorrow. Wish us luck.
GOOD LUCK! And congratulations on your first dog!
Thank you! Bringing home our first rescue in a couple of days and this information is extremely helpful.
I think it is also important to do fun things with your dog. It shows your dog home much you love them and they’re usually really stressed because they’re going into a new environment and that can help to relieve it.
That's a good point. Actually, playing in any new place is a good way to help them become more confident as they move around the world.
Amazing advice! My baby will be home in a few weeks and this is the best 1st week home advice I've gotten that doesn't seem so "extra" (I guess is the word I'd use). Thanks!
You're welcome! Congratulations on your new family member!
You are the best! I am about to become a New owner and your's are the most simple and informative vídeos! Great teacher and very good vídeo editing. Couldnt ask more than to ask you to keep up the vídeos coming.
Subscribed!
Hope you get all the sucess you deserve!
Thank you so much! And welcome aboard!
Btw, i find your channel name really interesting, it resembles a word from my country (Portugal): "Simpático" which is like nice in english but only aplies to a person or animal, (well maybe you know that...), like a nice guy is a "simpatico" guy. So that makes you a simpatico guy! ahah
Joao Lidonio Ian has the name "Simpawtico" becausenit is a play on the English language.
So your language plus a little something for our dog friends.
Sim-paw-tico.
;)
He did this on purpose since his channel is about training, and becoming the best owners for our dog companions as possible. ;)
I have to say I love all these videos. I haven't had a dog in years, but these are great. And are going to be a huge help when I get our next dog.
Just given a forever home to a dog from a Cyprus dog rescue - settling in well, but I need reminders of how to 'think dog' to send all the right messages to him to help him feel wanted, welcome and well behaved. Thanks for the great tips so far.
Love your videos! I hear you talking often about teaching your dog to love chew toys, and teaching them to use them properly, do you think you could do a video on this? thanks!
That's going to be in the next one!
Great video and informative!! Hopefully in the future you can go into what you talked about at 8:37 about training them to occupy themselves (I'm guessing this is what you called chew toy training in another video) when they're alone instead of be bored and sleep.
Saw down in the comments it will be coming with targeting!! Yay!!
I also started feeding my dog with the kong like how you recommended in the other video and now he gets excited when he sees the red kong :D It's entertaining for me to watch him work to get his food out too :)
Yup, exactly. I'm working on that one right now. 😉
can't wait for the chewing the blanket video!
thank you as always!
Thanks heaps makes a lot of sense, we have to be persistent.
Wonderful video for new owners!! Your videos are very informative and unlike any other behaviourist out there..It's even better how humble and genuine of a person you are.
Can you please list some pro tips or maybe do a short video talking about how exactly to manage guarding behaviour in young puppies?
I have a 15 week old female working line gsd and she has recently started to guard toys and space from my 3 year old male gsd although he is very gentle and respectful of her puppy antics.
They play and sleep together but the puppy randomly out of fear or insecurity snaps and charges towards my boy without much warning or growling first. Please give me some advice so I can help them both to not only coexist with better management but maybe get them to trust each other to be left home alone eventually when the time is ready. thank you very much and wish you even more success in the future.
I'm not a pro, but in my experience it helps for each dog to have space that is their own like a crate. Constantly sharing space, toys, etc can lead to insecurity issues, especially in puppies. It's like giving children their own room.
You are awesome, you explain everything so clearly, I start working for a family next week training a new vizsla puppy, I’m so exited and I am educating myself on the do’s and do nots, I have started to watch all your videos.
Thank you and any tips would be great 👍
Jacquie
You're so welcome! Happy to help! And LOL you're gonna have your hands full with a Vizsla puppy!
You are fantastik! Everything you say is always for the good of the dog. I love your videos. Thank you!
yah😋
Olive being described is like our new dog we adopted! We missed the first week and I feel so bad because we never did this! Now that I know this maybe I can help the family
Thanks for the tips!
This is Ryan Reynolds biker brother
omg literally laughed out loud. hahahaha
Never trust a man who wears more jewelry than your mother lol
I thought the same thing!
Me too. They must be cousins at least!
@@kroom7k536 I trust men who wear jewelry more than i trust a man with hundreds of tattoos and a pitbull :wink:
a super masculine man gives me the 'toxic masculinity' vibes. any toxic behavior means you're toxic as a person. if a man can't just let another man be feminine and wear dresses, u aint my type :) honestly, ask women. all the girls hear toxic masculinity on tik tok and go 'yeah you dont speak for us we love a man who wears a dress'
I've got my 5-year old rescue dog for 4 days now and I think, we are doing ok, he is very intelligent and we are changing his bad habits from previous home.
I think, for rescue dogs it is important to visit vet straightaway, ours has got a lot of neglected health issues now we put it into the plan to deal wit h it.
That's definitely a valid point. I think most reputable (
I 've got rescue cat for 7 years, and only lately we managed to address all his health problems, now he is fine, I hope.
Considering taking a dog, (only from shelter, of course ) we knew the story must be the same. And it is, although we were told, he is absolutely fine .
I don't blame any rescue centers, many thanks for the work, they are doing.
But people - owners have got to think about it, it is a serious financial burden.
And not all families are able to do it from that reason.
Olive's coat is so shiny!!! 😍
dude you rock , i could watch all day...
10:16 dog to the right looks like it's straight out of a disney cartoon
I'm watching a lot of your videos because I'm bringing home my new dog home in a week. These tips were amazing! But I do have one question about the routine. I work at a doggy daycare and am planning on taking my new dog to work with me. Should I include her coming to work with me in this crucial routine time or should I let her settle in first?
Found this really helpful -anticipating my 9 week old Havanese puppy in one week and the emphasis on management and routine will make Starlight’s welcome to my home so much easier.
I absolutely love all of your videos!! Thank you so much for sharing all of these amazing tips.
You're welcome! Thank you for watching!
Getting my first puppy in a month! How would these goals be different for a puppy? Is there anything different you would focus on?
“maybe if they had been properly taught how to co-exist in a human household, they’d still be there” 🤔 ouch
So true. and the whole 'Every dog in a shelter knows how to shake, but it's useless"
I love, love, love getting educated, I want my 2 year old pittie to be in good hands when I pick him up in less than 2 weeks!!
Thank you for your amazing advice, and all your work in making these awesome owner training videos.
I cannot begin to thank you enough, so many dogs will be better behaved with these owner training videos
Yes, they dogs are being trained, but, successful training of dog owners on how to actually train dogs, whoa, .... just stupendous.
I know the animals I've adopted were all given up due to not having any control over the animals.
God bless you, as these videos save lives of dogs in the final. That's the real truth, well behaved dogs are cherished.
Great video! Priceless information, all said in a very straightforward, simple and clear way !
Another important thing to consider is not to bring a new dog into the house until the one you already have is well trained. A second dog should not be a band-aid to "fix" the first dog. The old dog will teach the new dog bad habits and it will only make the situation worse. On the flip side, already having a well trained dog in the house makes training a new puppy that much easier because the puppy can learn by example.
Yes, good point!
Ian, I have a Great Pyr she is 1 year and I would really really love to teach her to recall... shes intelligent and likes training but the breed is so damned independent gets bored with treats eventually stops taking them (simply walks away). I try to counter this with super excited and praise but that doesn't work with the recall and heel commands cause she gets excited and starts bouncing around to play. Thus I have never gotten her to properly walk on a leash and I'm terrified she will turn into a Disa-Pyreneese if I let her off the leash.
Any suggestions?
Texas Atheist if she likes food and trying new things; try RAW green beans, carrots (the whole ones), or even freezing 100% NO SUGAR Pumpkin (from a can. (Ingredients: PUMPKIN))!
I have silicone molds for ice, in different shapes, and I put the pumpkin from the can in it and freeze it. My dog loves when I go to the freezer he knows what I'm grabbing (or hopes I'm grabbing them). Lol.
If you try pumpkin, make sure the ingredients literally say:
Pumpkin
Nothing else!!!
But yes he loves the green beans and the crunch it makes. Hehe.
The carets are also good for them too.
:)
Let me know if you try this and if you Fur Baby loves it!
We are gearing up for a puppy in a few weeks, and this video was so helpful! Very clear, specific and to the point. Thanks!
Olive is adorbs. Thanks for these tips!
Hi Ian! thanks for the great videos.
Could you maybe make one about how to discourage aggressive behaviour? Our boston terrier is now 1.5 years old and is never aggressive on our longs walks on parks or other areas (he is always playful and doesn't get bothered by bikes, runners, horses or anything else) , but when I bring him out just around our apartment he gets aggressive towards other dogs, bikes or even children. We live on the same place for a year now and this wasn't a problem before, but the other dogs in the neighbourhood were always very territorial towards him and I think he started it up as a "defence" mechanism.
When he starts to growl or pull on the leash I don't really know what is the correct way to stop it and i'm afraid i make the problem worse.
PS: Olive is a cutie pie! :)
Yay! I'm the 1000th person to like this vid!!!
WOOT! Thank you!
thank you so much for your videos. We just adopted one three days ago. :)
Another video I appreciated. Thank you.
you are absolutely a great teacher ... thanks for sharing your knowledge
Wow thank YOU!
My cat thinks he is a dog so yeah im here...its kinda weird
Getting my first puppy on Sunday. This was very helpful 💖
Glad it was helpful!
This is great. I will show this to my sons so we can know what to think about and get ready for when we adopt.
8:40 this is strictly forbidden in my country (Sweden). Keeping a dog in a cage indoors is against the law here even if it is just for 2 minutes.
I don’t think it’s good either. I wish it was banned
It’s not even allowed to sleep in at night? Or do you use a puppy pen around their bed etc? Norwegian here, I’ve heard about this law in Sweden, but I don’t think we have the same in Norway. Crate training isn’t normal here though, maybe just to sleep in at night when they’re a puppy, but even during the day my puppy had a 70x140cm confinement.
I taught my puppy to come into the house from the backyard after potty time when i opened the door and say "luna, metete" (luna, come in). Now she just scratches the window when she is done and comes in without any instruction. That was important for me because going out with her every time wasn't an option with winter weather and also because our land is kind of big and I do not wanted her wondering all over the place every time, specially at night.
I’m getting my first ever dog in 2 weeks and I’m so glad for this video!
These videos are awesome! I grew up with lovely and well-behaved boxers. But now that I’m getting a dog of my own, I’m brushing up on training techniques and what to expect/do with a rescue dog. Really glad I came across these - making notes already! :) Thanks!
Everyone seems to be an expert because they made a TH-cam video. There are literally hundreds of these “experts” telling you what do do and none seem to be on the same page. Trying to watch all gets confusing.
Hi Ian, I absolutely love your videos!!! I've been watching a lot of videos over the last few days because we are getting our pup Skye (a border collie) in about 3 weeks. I'm really excited because she will be the perfect friend for us and the kids. I do however have a question for you... We want Skye to be friends with our cat as well. And im not quite sure how to approach this... Do they meet immediately, how to reward good behaviour towards each other, etc...
Keep up the good work!!!
Paw and kisses from belgium,

Great video! Trying to get my 2 month old husky/sheppard into a good routine... definitely know these videos will help! 🐾💙
Thanks for the tips
