  • Puppy training is one of the most rewarding and often frustrating things you'll do. Teaching your puppy how to focus will build a rewarding relationship and set your puppy up for success.
    All training you do with your dog is based on how the puppy was trained, handled and treated. In this video I give you a short step by step guide on getting your dog to focus on you, break distractions and reward the puppy for good behavior.

    Dear Mr. Cabral, I love your videos. I babysit a lab. At my house we play school. He loves cookies and love giving him cookies. I run out of things to teach him ( I'm getting old ) then watch one of your videos. In about 2- 3 lessons (we have a couple of lessons a day. A lesson is about 10 minutes and always ends on a good note.) he has it. We practice and are having such fun. Thank you.

    Hands behind the back works too but like this better.

    Hi! Really enjoying your videos! I recently adopted a 18 mo old 3 pound Yorkie from a family that I know very little about. They were giving her up because they said they didnt have enough time for her and they seemed to be fine ppl.. Ive had her for 8 months now and am still perplexed by her behavior.. She is quite unlike any Yorkie that I've ever seen and is extremely quiet, very docile and doesnt get rowdy or loud or bark too much (or at all sometimes) which Ive heard is a good thing with small breeds.. Anyway.. My issue is that she appears to be so fearful all the time and full of anxiety. Ive had dogs all of my life (Im your age) and I've always been able to train and teach them with little to no real issues. This little Yorkie however.. She wont come to me often, she rarely wants to sit with me but will sit with my son (20yrs old, the kid not the dog, ha) and about the only time she will do anything with any of us (especially with me) is if we have food or treats..Truth be told Im the disciplinarian and am wondering if Im either being too strong with her, or not strong enough.. We recently lost an older dog who was 13 and died of natural causes who she didnt seem very attached to. Now she seriously wont come near me and I joke, but I half wonder if she thinks I killed the older dog lol.. I know, pretty silly..Anyway I honestly dont know what to do with her. Ive tried walking her, Ive tried working with her,Ive tried playing with her, Ive tried training her, I DO groom her myself, but nothing seems to work with this little one.. Your channel seems to go hand in hand with large dogs and puppys, but what are your thoughts and idea's for a very small timid dog?? There are days where she will walk the house for literally HOURS round and round and round. Ive had her to the vet and there isnt anything wrong with her. When she gets like this its as if she is in pure anxiety and will not allow ANYONE to pick her up or try to sooth her. She is spayed by the way, I forgot to mention that and am not sure if you'd need to know that.. One thing that I havent done that Im going to start doing is hand feeding her to gain more trust. I didnt think about that until watching your videos. She loves going on walks and being outside but as tiny as she is I do not let her go outside alone unless someone is with her. Im a little bit at a loss with this one and any advice would be amazing.. thanks so much and sorry such a long comment, I just wanted to be clear. Hope that maybe you can answer in a different video or in comment, thanks again

      This is a silly story but we were kids. As a little girl we had a few afghan hounds. Sometimes one would get away from us when we were walking. Calling them and trying to get a hold of them turned into a game of keep away which we were never going to win. So we thought of what they would like most in the world. Tiny kittens . Our dogs loved kittens. So we held our hands together and made kitten noises. That always worked. "Gotta be more interesting than the surroundings".

    Focus is what i need. My dog is happy to do anything i ask him until hes done it. Then had his next thought. Then hes straight back up or pacing if food related waits
    He brought me my mail yesterday after i joked last week he get the junk mail coming through as we saw it i joked get it. He over enthusiasm grabbed and tore it to shreds in seconds.
    Hype over No.... failed. End.
    A week later the door rattles he whines as usual probably gonna erupt into barking next.
    Then he came trotting in to the lounge nose to the ceiling letter in mouth proudly showing me 🐕 look what ive got. I said bring it and he did. Great.. i gave him treat. Then he shot off again. Then i saw him go to his bed holding a package now i say bring it and he did immediately BRILLIANT i think hes basically learned this himself. 😮
    After his 2nd treat he shot off again came back now with junk mail leaflet thing and i said good bring it and he tore it to peices.
    So now i have to wait and see mayb he can just tell whats junk and whats not? I hope.

    awesome video. I was hoping you were going to mention delivery of food from opposite hand. nice explanation. I use yes like a clicker to mark the behaviour not as a release. Using good as a bridge marker. love to see dogs getting it. :) beautiful dog!

    • @zahedsubhan7676
      @zahedsubhan7676 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi: Interesting. Do you use a separate release then (free/ok/break etc). Do you reward on that separate release if so?...just something I have been wracking my brains over! The M Ellis, Robert Cabral binary system with “yes” as a terminal marker seems to work to build drive but is not so conducive to stability maybe. One “explanation” might be that “yes” as a terminal marker is a release with engagement, but “free” (or other word) is a release to freedom...
      Sorry if that is all long-winded!
      It’s a another terrific video from Robert, but they all are!

    • @momtomaryjean
      @momtomaryjean 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      zahed subhan yes. I reward on release to me after the dog performs a known command with a release cue of “break”. But if I am training a new behavior then the yes is used to mark the correct choice (exactly as you would use a clicker to mark the correct behavior) then good is built into the training as a bridge. So keep doing that. So if teaching duration yes to mark the sit and good to communicate keep on doing it. At early stages I return to dog often to reward the continuation of the behavior (asking for longer and longer)and the break is to release the dog from doing the command I asked. So “heel, once in position “yes” and good (eventually one good command is enough to keep the dog where I want them) and when the dog has completed the heel and I am ready to release I use “break”. Or free is fine. I use break. This means your done and are free to go do something. I should be able to toss a ball or anything distracting (food etc) and dog does not move until I release the dog. I find using yes for my training provides a lot of clarity for when the dog actually does what I ask. I “mark” the exact moment. But I know many use yes as a release and to build drive.

    Hey Robert. I have an 8 month old female working line GSD and am wondering how I can get my pup to settle down when strangers walk in or around my house. Every time she sees someone around the property she will bark until they are out of sight, and if we are outside and someone walks by and we are playing, she will bark and approach the person/dog, causing people to be nervous. I’m wondering how I can strengthen her focus on me at ALL times even during these times. Thank you!!

  • @adambaranowski9350
    @adambaranowski9350 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    This is perhaps my favorite Robert Cabral video. Around 4:20 Robert tells the dog “nope”. He refers to it as “putting negative in”.
    As mentioned the day before recording this video Robert taught the dog that whenever he says “nope” the dog will miss the reward if he continues with current behavior. “Nope” causes the dog to immediately “try something else”.
    The reason why Robert did that (conditioned “nope” or “no” marker) is: if you withhold/deny reward until the dog abandons current behavior the dog will experience frustration and increase undesired behavior before switching to another behavior. It’s time consuming, makes training a chore and can be dangerous at times. Robert spares the dog AND the audience from frustration. He “corrects” the dog by giving it a hint to change behavior before it results in undesired consequence (frustration).
    In terms of applied behavioral analysis what Robert has done was that he used classical conditioning to create a secondary (indirect) punisher. He associated the feelings of frustration and confusion with the word “nope”. This enables him to punish the dog indirectly, interrupting behavior before it escalates and frustration occurs.
    Withholding or denying anticipated reward is called negative punishment. The increase of behavior is called extinction burst. The reduction of a conditioned response due to negative punishment is called behavioral extinction. Interrupting (sharp reduction) of a behavior by using punisher is called positive punishment. However the learning pattern where punishers are used repeatedly until a new behavior appears is called negative reinforcement.
    Since behaviors happen in chains there is no reason why Robert wouldn’t positively reinforce the desired behavior AFTER it was acquired through avoidance learning (negatively reinforced).
    Also see how Robert uses “jackpot reward” (three pieces of food instead of one) after introducing positive punishment. This is a whole other topic: not only does this improve acquiring desired behaviors but also is a large factor in building dog’s motivation. Learning to handle failures, frustration and delayed gratification is a major factor in a successful life.
    Using negative AND positive reinforcement AND building motivation in one go = TRIPPLE REINFORCEMENT. Compare Robert Cabral to NePoPo or any other top trier training methodology - the differences are superficial.
    This video is an example of skillful implementation of a large chunk of modern behavioral psychology even though Robert doesn’t use academic terms.

    Hello and I am enjoying your videos and common sense regarding various situations; in particular I agree with you about rescue groups wiping out shelters then trying to upsell these rescues for inordinant amounts...I chose to find a reputable 40 yr breeder of champion line poodles and close enough to meet and see her champions. . I have a 7 month old toy female. My issue and subsequent question, she is a sweet girl, very brave and smart. I have been working on control issues as she is particularly excited to meet anyone and everyone who babys her and she has learned to con people in stores by begging, whining, whimpering and flagging her tail....to get them to pet and make over her...I have been training her to by sitting and waiting until she gets herself under control and calms herself....for me to invite her to see folks or not at all and just watch them go by. Question is: she breaks at about 12 ft. She forgets what world she is supposed to be in and moves out to enjoy being spoiled by strangers. I am frustrated and how do I fix this?. It is difficult to be in basic training, as she does this to the instructer, the puppies, their owners....everyone comments, "shes just a puppy". She is the most lovable never met a stranger cutest fluff ball, but I know she is ignoring me during these times and commands all the attention in the vicinity. This is critical to overcome because I plan on taking her into therapy dog certification to visit elderly and children and do her tricks she naturally loves and finds easy. Do you have a video or podcast I have missed? thank you

      Just wondering if she's a therapy dog yet and if you overcame her not listening to you? You can do the greet and regreet where you ask if she wants to say hi, tell her to go say hi. As soon as she gets to the person ask for a sit. Start close then gradually build up the distance, but you want to ping pong the time and distances - don't always make it harder. Sometimes few feet, sometimes 5 feet then back to one foot away, etc. Hope that helps.

    • @vipercab
      @vipercab 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Curly Howard ... poop eating, from what I been seeing, learning comes from distress, anxiety built up, and it does not have to be for a very long time, couple of weeks and the dog can eat poop.
      It’s all about keeping their mind occupied, challenging, and they have to see that challenge an achievement. For Dobermans, their personality is very much to please their owner and some would refer to that attitude “the dog is in love with its owner “ but you still have to earn that from the dog. There is always a two way street at the dog level... and he needs to enjoy your presence, your work load that you put on him.

      @PinkBlue_Spood 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I’d say always keep a house-line or leash on your puppy, for starters. No matter how many times you have to prevent the dog from eating waste, stay consistent and watchful and try to address it if there’s even a sniff or sign of interest. The house-line or leash gives you the ability to quickly gain control, not having to chase your dog around and look foolish. Have them then do something good in return, even if it’s just luring a behavior, yes and rewarding that, and encourage your puppy to do something else instead (play with you, chewing on a toy, going in their crate, etc.). Name recall is very important to teach early on as well, and adding distractions very slowly to it. Eventually when the puppy is old enough to start learning commands, teach a leave-it command and slowly generalize it, along with gradually adding distractions. Patience and consistency is key, and don’t go too fast or be afraid to go back a step. Also set the puppy up for success. Try to avoid things your puppy will get into, and address it quickly if they manage to get into it.

    Hello Mr Cabral i thank you sir for this incredible segments for training. I have a cane corso, boerboel two years each both girls and i also have a dutch sheperd and he is 14 weeks old and am doing the stay and pull the leash to see if he will move and so far great. Am also doing the walk with the long leash and turning around so the dog can correct it self to walk next to me. so far good but twice he does not want to come next to me and wants to run off. I try to do 15 min to 20 in the am then ill take him out to do something else that after noon. I work from home and i have about 3 acres of land plus i have a hiking trail behind my house so lots of hiking and running with all three. Sude i shorten the training time? i have tried the ball and seems to like the ball more than treats. We have bobcats, coyotes, bear and fox where i leave. lol...poconos pa all mountains..

    • @rupninja4358
      @rupninja4358 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      that's too long. Just my opinion but you are going to have to get them involved or at least get them to take your pup to a trainer while you are gone. You might be able to train at that pace but its going to take forever depending on what you want the final result to be. The only concern is training your family to train the pup. For example I train our Malinois 75% of the time my wife the other 25% but she trains him a little differently. Same style and all but i catch her using different commands for different behaviors and this is confusing the dog. If they are going to train the dog you all have to be on the same page.

Since I brought her home she's shy and doesn't want to play at all or doesn't want to leave it's bed. When I pick her up she scare bit me. 9 weeks old. How can I get her to be more active and get comfortable and not be scared no more?

    Can you tell me if it's normal for a German shepherd working line puppy 11 weeks old to be jump lunging and grabbing us as tearing our clothes and locking onto our hands or even back of thigh. Redirecting isn't working. She prefers my hands over the toy. And she has a huge force of pressure already. I have a in home trainer coming but it's booked a month out. Otherwise she does real well with place and waiting on free command. And other commands.

    Had an interesting conversation with a K9 unit officer this past weekend. He has a Mainois and he has been with his partner for 6 months, the dog is 6 years old. He said his Mali is 80lbs but he has seen some over 100... is this possible? I ask because I assumed mine would end up around 80 pounds but i have already had two trainers and a breeder tell me that at 9 months he is already tall and long for a malinois. he's already pushing 70 pounds at his last appointment. I am just curious, thanks.

    I know it’s not easy to come up with different dogs but I would like to see some dog behaving with a young American pitbull.
    I have a 7-month pit that I got when he was a 6-week pup, never been hit, abused. There were a few times I had given him a human lecture for doing his business in the house ( of course that didn’t go anywhere, just me being frustrated).
    The reason I’m reaching out to you is with his behavior of an abused dog. He seem to respond to commands but he decides when it is time to no longer execute. If I put a leash on him and try to lead him in a down position or lift him in a sit position, he gives me the looks of an abused dog that is about to lose his life in the next minute. After the use of the leash, so called incident, his execution of sit or down are in a very slow motion as if he is scared to do it or he might get hit if he does it.

    • @MZ-rv1bu

      Find a good trainer in your area and remember, he's only 7 months, you need lots of patience and consistency. I have a 15 and 1/2 years old American Pit Terrier, overall he's one of the best most loyal, beautiful, smart, loving dogs I've ever had. They are awesome, but require tons of patience and your consistency, and puppies, any breed can be like that. That is not a sign of abuse, it's all puppies who are not yet trained and pits can be stubborn, emotionally sensitive, intelligent, just don't give up,. Look up more of Roberts videos on his youtube channel on puppies and pit bulls, he's kind of an expert on pits. Always let him out after eating and again 20 minutes later, only feed 2x a day. Get an appropriate crate, keep learning how to train, and of course never hit them, ever.
