My dog knows lots of tricks, but I was having a heck of a time getting him to pick things up or even hand off toys to me during fetch. I tried your techniques and within a week he had it all figured out. Thanks!
I have a few chronic illnesses that make it very painful to pick things up! I will definitely be teaching this to my service dog! Thank you for the tutorial❤️
i want to thank you for this video, i have the same thing you do and i had gotten me a poodle that im trying to train so that she is not just my companion but my service dog as well ,again thank you
This was a God sent to me! I have DDD and Dupytrins in both hands. Thank you for this very good video!! I just got a puppy, he’s 7 months old and I believe I can get him to do this for me.😊❤
My Husky knows to grab it, and that command paired with this method is gold. He still needs a lot of coaxing but I'm confident he'll learn pretty quickly. I want him to learn to pick up some toys and eventually bring me his leash for walks
Wow. What a great explanation. I have been looking for a video so I can teach my dog to pick up the mail from my front door as I am having trouble bending over to pick it up.
Wonderful tutorial! This also seems helpful with teaching them to drop what they've got in their mouth with the gesture of your hand cupped in front of them. Can't wait to try and work on this with mine. Thank you!
This is exactly the video i needed. My dog wont take anything in his mouth that he doesn’t think is a toy or treat. Now i know how to get him to get items to retrieve! 🎉
love the video but was wondering if you could give me some tips my dog is very food-motivated and will refuse to put anything into her mouth if there is food nearby thanks
My lab mix is very food motivated. I don't give her the treat until she does what I'm asking for, even if it takes a very long time. Eventually she'll try to do different things she knows in order to get that treat and will eventually give me the behavior I want. At that moment is when I mark and reward, then repeat. Eventually they end up understanding that they don't get that high value treat without giving a specific behavior first. Food motivated dogs take the most patience to train new behaviors.
I probably should have used Sirius for this video cause Salem LOVES this task 😂 I had to reshoot multiple clips over and over cause he was too excited he kept launching the bottle across the room
I think it depends on the dog/day and schedule. My boy needs structure but knows when I feel bad vs when I’m being lazy. He likes to have food and fun first then I get good results. Once he looks frustrated w/ a task if we are sitting I’ll do some play or a break. Then commence if I need him to learn something fast or he won’t cooperate I’ll prong collar and leash him up. Wrks every time.
I really love your videos!! I just love watching you guys.. When I get another dog, I will teach them these tricks.. I also love then way Salem looks at you.. 💜🖤💜🖤 Hugs and kisses..
Oh my goodness your hair is stunning!!!!!! How do you achieve those curls? You also have a lot of hair that probably adds to the beauty of your hair!! I have super boring hair I cannot get it to hold a curl for even 10 minutes I looooooove your gorgeous hair 😩😩😩
I don't have any chronic illnesses or struggle bending down. I just wanna teach my dog to pick up his favourite toy. He already does well sometimes when I point to it before we leave a room (and he knows we're leaving), but I think it'd be cute if I could have him bring me his lamb to play.
My rough collie I'm training for jra and he just licks the bottle and refuses to take it lol what can I do? I've been trying for a week and he barley acknowledges it anymore and I've switched treats and bottles things I could possibly think of help?
Hold off on rewards and stay persistent until she offers a longer hold. Even if it’s just 2 seconds longer, catch it the second it happens & praise / heavily reward. Then keep pushing it for longer and longer. Even if it’s just seconds at a time, hold off.
Lovely tutorial! I am still in the early stages of training with my dog and he interacts with it without problems (touches his nose to it) but no matter how much I rub a treat on the item or make it fun he won't open his mouth or even lick it. Would smearing something sticky on it, like peanut butter, make it easier or more difficult for him to understand?
Can u teach how to get meds? And drink? I have very bad stomach issues at only 14 and some days I’m bed or bathroom ridden all day long and when I’m in an apartment on my own in 4-10 years I know that seems like a while but I hear it’s better to teach them when there younger and time flys and some days I’m home alone as well so I’d rlly appreciate if you could show how pls and thank you so much! :) (And keep doing what your doing your so great and amazing for all that you do! :) )
This is taught specifically to use as a task to bring me my medication. Feel free to use what you want. My dogs know to not touch things on tables / counter ever
The key is definitely go slow this was my fourth try teaching this and after slowing it down he got it in around 15 minutes😂 still so proud of him tho❤
Hello , there are 2 problems i am facing while doing this , first my dog doesn't let me pet her idk y she does that i used to have 2 dogs but none of them ever did this so i can't understand the reason and second after she gives me the bottle and i offer her treat she is trying to snatch the bottle as soon as she gets the treat what should i do
@@rivergaming2393 I’m having the same problem he is 9 almost 10 months I’ve tried saying no buying more toys and bones so he can bite them but doesn’t work
My dog is about 5 years old and I’ve been working with him for the past hour and a half and he’s already caught on as to retrieve it from my hand. He’s just very stubborn lol but I don’t think it really matters what age I just believe the older they are the more patience you’ll need when working with them.
@@siriuslysalem thank you so much for responding. She only picks up a toy or anything that looks like a stick she won’t pick up any blanket she won’t pick up a rag she won’t even interact with it can you please shoot some advice? I rolled the rag into a stick shape I made it look alive and she won’t interact with it
This is going to sound weird but my dog looks like a bald version of yours lol. 😂 she is a German Shepard lab and has the same face shape and ears but her colors are light on top her head like he as a full “head” of hair and she is bald. I am laughing at this more than I should.
This is tutorials to help people learn how to train their dogs.. of course I’m going to use my demo dog. I have plenty of videos on my other platforms of me showing me starting new tricks from day one and how to train them. If you don’t want to watch tutorials. Then don’t watch them
@siriuslysalem Then you should be more open on how long it actually takes to effectively teach. Clearly your viewers won't get the progress you achieved in what appears to be 9 minutes. And no I don't watch your videos because they are garbage.
My dog knows lots of tricks, but I was having a heck of a time getting him to pick things up or even hand off toys to me during fetch. I tried your techniques and within a week he had it all figured out. Thanks!
I’m so glad I could help!!! Keep up the good work 🖤

He is so focused! 😍 great tutorial, thank you!
Really clear instructions. Thanks for this!

I have a few chronic illnesses and came from your TikTok after watching a few videos on how your pets can help. Thank you for making these.
I showed the thing to my dog and she slapped it 🤣
My Husky knows to grab it, and that command paired with this method is gold. He still needs a lot of coaxing but I'm confident he'll learn pretty quickly. I want him to learn to pick up some toys and eventually bring me his leash for walks
That’s awesome! It sounds like something very doable for you guys
Wow. What a great explanation. I have been looking for a video so I can teach my dog to pick up the mail from my front door as I am having trouble bending over to pick it up.
I’m using this for my upcoming service dog!
Wonderful tutorial! This also seems helpful with teaching them to drop what they've got in their mouth with the gesture of your hand cupped in front of them. Can't wait to try and work on this with mine. Thank you!
Plot twist: he understands what u want right away but he wants more treats 😂 also hope u get better!
He’s already trained this lol. So yes he knew what I wanted. I just use him as a demo dog to show to to teach this lol. Thank you!
@@siriuslysalem you're doing great!
He’s like “ummm do you want me to take this now?” ❤❤
Your hair is beautiful! Praying for you!
This is exactly the video i needed. My dog wont take anything in his mouth that he doesn’t think is a toy or treat. Now i know how to get him to get items to retrieve! 🎉
Same❤
I have pots and hypermobility and I’ve had trouble teaching this to my sdit. Tysm!

Thank you so much!! My SD is really easy to train, so he got this within a day and it has been SO helpful
Salem looks ready to get it, so much to the point of shooting you some side-eye 👀 😆
I probably should have used Sirius for this video cause Salem LOVES this task 😂 I had to reshoot multiple clips over and over cause he was too excited he kept launching the bottle across the room
@@siriuslysalem lol I am surprised he controlled himself well enough for the video. you need to post an outtakes reel 😆
Thank you. Finally a straight forward answers. I am an amputee and this is already working after a few days. ❤
Is there a time of day when you’d recommend having a training session? How do you know when to conclude the session?
I think it depends on the dog/day and schedule. My boy needs structure but knows when I feel bad vs when I’m being lazy. He likes to have food and fun first then I get good results. Once he looks frustrated w/ a task if we are sitting I’ll do some play or a break. Then commence if I need him to learn something fast or he won’t cooperate I’ll prong collar and leash him up.

Their ears a so freakin cute!
Stunning video! I love how well you explain as you do the actions with Salem.
Thank you!
@@siriuslysalem You are welcome! :)
I really love your videos!! I just love watching you guys.. When I get another dog, I will teach them these tricks.. I also love then way Salem looks at you.. 💜🖤💜🖤 Hugs and kisses..

I looooooove your gorgeous hair 😩😩😩
lol thank you! Those are my natural curls. I just throw some leave in conditioner in my hair and let it air dry after I shower :)
Thank you. I've been struggling to figure out how to teach this.
What if they run with the object? Mine usually gets possessive about his toys or objects.
I don't have any chronic illnesses or struggle bending down. I just wanna teach my dog to pick up his favourite toy. He already does well sometimes when I point to it before we leave a room (and he knows we're leaving), but I think it'd be cute if I could have him bring me his lamb to play.
That you ! And yes it took a minute but she finally got it!!!! All about confidence and rubbing treat food on it helped a lot
Helpful n it’s working.
My rough collie I'm training for jra and he just licks the bottle and refuses to take it lol what can I do? I've been trying for a week and he barley acknowledges it anymore and I've switched treats and bottles things I could possibly think of help?
Any tips for if he won’t mouth it at all?
My dog successfully grabs it with her mouth, but then immediately spits it out. She wont hold it longer than a second. Any tips?
Hold off on rewards and stay persistent until she offers a longer hold. Even if it’s just 2 seconds longer, catch it the second it happens & praise / heavily reward. Then keep pushing it for longer and longer. Even if it’s just seconds at a time, hold off.
What do you do when the dog gets it, but then runs away with it
Lovely tutorial! I am still in the early stages of training with my dog and he interacts with it without problems (touches his nose to it) but no matter how much I rub a treat on the item or make it fun he won't open his mouth or even lick it. Would smearing something sticky on it, like peanut butter, make it easier or more difficult for him to understand?
Mind if I asked if you tried it and if it worked?
Unfortunately it didn't, despite numerous sessions there was no progress 😔
@@jonnalundmark4833 Mm :( did you ever get them to grab it? Hope you and your pup are doing well ^^
Does it matter/help when you perform this training, i.e. after or before meals?
It depends on your dog!!
Thank you
I can get my dog to take, it’s the letting go part 😩
Take a step back and teach a drop it command. Then go back to this
@@siriuslysalem thank you! I just saw the other video!
I’m going to try it but she’s not great at bringing the toy back 😅
Can u teach how to get meds? And drink? I have very bad stomach issues at only 14 and some days I’m bed or bathroom ridden all day long and when I’m in an apartment on my own in 4-10 years I know that seems like a while but I hear it’s better to teach them when there younger and time flys and some days I’m home alone as well so I’d rlly appreciate if you could show how pls and thank you so much! :) (And keep doing what your doing your so great and amazing for all that you do! :) )
I already have one for get meds up and get drink is taught the same way. :)
I would use a different object. They might find one on a table and get into medicine.
This is taught specifically to use as a task to bring me my medication. Feel free to use what you want. My dogs know to not touch things on tables / counter ever
What if your pup is not food driven and just doesn’t care
Hand feed their kibble! Instead of feeding from a bowl, That’ll help build up food drive.
Great video!
The key is definitely go slow this was my fourth try teaching this and after slowing it down he got it in around 15 minutes😂 still so proud of him tho❤
I’m going to teach this to my service dog !!!
Great Video
My dog can pick up things, but I’m struggling to get him to understand to bring things to my hand not on the floor in front of me…
My dog will pick this up quickly
Hello , there are 2 problems i am facing while doing this , first my dog doesn't let me pet her idk y she does that i used to have 2 dogs but none of them ever did this so i can't understand the reason and second after she gives me the bottle and i offer her treat she is trying to snatch the bottle as soon as she gets the treat what should i do
Tell her no and stand up/move the bottle away from her. You want her only interested in it when you need her to be.
@@siriuslysalem thank you i will try it
how old were your dogs when they stopped biting you because we cant we just cant get our dog to stop biting us
Are your dog a puppy
how old is your dog? what have you tried in terms of getting them to stop?
@@rivergaming2393 I’m having the same problem he is 9 almost 10 months I’ve tried saying no buying more toys and bones so he can bite them but doesn’t work
Oh wow thank
What treats do you give him ?
I use zukes or merrick
@@siriuslysalem thank youuuu
Hello can I still teach my shit zu he is like 6-8 yrs old
My dog is about 5 years old and I’ve been working with him for the past hour and a half and he’s already caught on as to retrieve it from my hand. He’s just very stubborn lol but I don’t think it really matters what age I just believe the older they are the more patience you’ll need when working with them.
My dog won’t grab anything or even try to grab or anything please help she’s a service dog k9 I’m starting to think she is really dumb maybe
I have a tutorial on how I trained my dogs to hold items ! Plz check that out
It’s also possible she might not be a good fit for service work if y’all are struggling.
@@siriuslysalem thank you so much for responding. She only picks up a toy or anything that looks like a stick she won’t pick up any blanket she won’t pick up a rag she won’t even interact with it can you please shoot some advice? I rolled the rag into a stick shape I made it look alive and she won’t interact with it
@@siriuslysalem she is a Belgium mallinois she is supposed to be smart she’s only 6 to 7 months but she won’t put anything in her mouth
@@BillyBeamedUpjust curious. How are things going?
I love your YES, who needs a clicker?
Clickers just never we’re our thing. I find marking the action with “yes” so much easier lol.
Can I use a toy, instead.
Yup. Use whatever you want
any tips on when your dog will get it but them proceeds to go chew on it instead of bringing it back?
Put them on a long 10+ ft leash and practice that way until they become more solid on it. The leash prevents them from being able to do keep away.
Cool
This is going to sound weird but my dog looks like a bald version of yours lol. 😂 she is a German Shepard lab and has the same face shape and ears but her colors are light on top her head like he as a full “head” of hair and she is bald. I am laughing at this more than I should.
LMAO I love that
I wish I had a dig
Do with ur gr
He already knows this also???
@@siriuslysalem i ment with ur golden rietriver
@@yusufchoonara4340 yes.. I know. my golden retriever knows this already. I have videos of him doing this.
@@siriuslysalem i see know 😁
I'm your big fan give me a shout out in the next video please
Dog
Another dog training video with an already trained dog. I wish someone would use an untrained dog for their videos so it's more realistic!
