  • Good puppy training can simply be reduced to good information. Lots of new puppy owners struggle with the simplicity of this concept. If you don't allow your puppy to discover and rehearse the bad choices, they're left with only good choices to make. But how can you be sure that you're leaving your puppy with only good choices?

    I followed your videos for training my adopted puppy. I adopted him when he was 5 months. He is now 2 years old. The videos worked extremely well. Supervising the puppy to teach how to make good decisions was key for a good behaviour. He was definitely not destroying the house.
    However… the consequence in my specific case, of supervising him so well, and most of the time, was that after a few months that I finally stop working from home, he developed separation anxiety. I spent so much time with him, training him, supervising him etc, that he got too attached to me. I don’t regret all the good training. I just had to add a training process to get him through separation anxiety.
    I would suggest with my experience, to be mindful of having periods where your puppy also learn how to stay alone and calmed

      I agree. I got my puppy six months ago while I happened to be home most of the time and realized very quickly that training him to be alone was just as important as everything else. Bc I started early, he NEVER barks when we’re gone. And I mean never (we have a cam). He whines for about three minutes when we’re abt to leave sometimes but he settles so quickly and we’ve never come home to an accident not even once. His training isn’t done obv but he’s so well behaved considering his age and breed being predisposed to separation anxiety. Solo training is so important imo

    100 percent agree with the crate training advice. You should never use the crate as a time out for bad behavior it never works. It's supposed to be their calm safe place, NOT A JAIL. I made this mistake as many others have.

    • @imnotmike
      @imnotmike 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

      I use my dogs crate as a time out for bad behavior and it works very well. They love their crate, but they want to go in there on their own terms. They don't want to have to go in there because you tell them to. But they feel safe in their crate, so if you tell them to go in their crate, they don't feel scared or anxious.
      You have to teach them to go in their crate on command, and you have to teach them to wait in their crate with the door open, until you tell them they can come out.
      Once you've taught them these behaviors, go to your crate is one of the best training tools for a dog. It's perhaps the only negative reinforcement training technique that actually works, because they always feel safe in their crate, so you can give them negative reinforcement to correct bad behavior without activating their fight or flight instinct, which negates any training.

      @@imnotmike One of my dogs did this. He loved his crate and whenever we caught him doing something unpleasant we told him "go to crate" and he would listen. Sometimes he go there voluntarily after realizing his mistake. He would come out when we called him or he deemed it safe to do so. Aside from that he always liked staying in his crate because it made him feel safe. Though one time I spotted McDonald's ketchup packets and wrapper in there. Both my mom and I wondered where this all came from till we guessed that the people renovating our floors may have had lunch and left the lying about. Our dog may have taken them and stowed them away in his crate.

Using a crate doesn't mean you don't train your dog to be left at home, it means that until your dog is well trained on appropriate behaviors you crate them when unable to be with them. Once those appropriate behaviors are well established than you can stop using the crate for increasing periods of time until you aren't having to crate them at all.

      Crates are most definitely NOT illegal in most countries. And the countries where there are laws regarding crates, those laws are about how long the dogs should be in crates. So pretty much the laws only reinforce how crates should be being used anyways which is not leaving the dog in the crate for the entire day while you're at work​@@scarlettdevina7054

    My dog loved his crate so much through the almost 10 years we had him. He would go into it all the time when he wanted alone time. And when we took it away, he looked for it, even going to the extremes of pulling it back to where it "belonged". We just let him keep the crate in our living room. He was so happy to keep it. We never used the "house chain" with any dog we've had. my last was a super weird dog, he didn't want to be left alone without someone. But at the same time he was PERFECTLY FINE being left alone when for hours when we had to go out (no more than 5 hours). No separation anxiety or anything like some other dogs/breeds experience when they're kind of clingy.
    This is such good advice and it's something to keep in mind when getting a new puppy.

      @@CricketRodeo First of all, I would trust the breeder. He told me, that this puppy was high energy. But when I came to visit, all I saw was a sleepy puppy....I believed, they wanted to sell me the runt.
      Second, I would get the puppy a crib....so I can put her there safely for a few minutes. I would not put her in a crate, tho.
      And then I would be more firm. I didn't pull thru with my commands. I believed, it would be enough to show her my disappointment and my opinion.
      Now I know, dogs function differently....
      On the other hand, at the end she turnt out very well. Couldn't ask for a better dog, very gentle, social, caring, confident, not scared at all...love her!

      @@karlashmeedavlasta6365 thanks for all the advice! What's your reason for not recommending the crate? I keep hearing conflicting views about that...many say the dogs like it but they like the crate with a roof so it's dark like a cave, and others say crates are mean. Does it just depend on the dog's personality maybe? I'm so glad it all worked out for you and that you did a great job training and have a great dog! We want to get a puppy (for the first time) so I'm trying to get well-prepared to start things right! :)

    Brilliant information, I'm in the uk I love the idea of a crate as my puppy likes to get in her carry case to go to sleep ,she uses it like a den she's 12 weeks old iv had her 4 months old , she's a tea cup Dachshund so prefers to be with me at night ,I also like the idea of a house line ,this also gets her used to a lead ,iv a huge garden and she is tiny ,iv had her 4 weeks ,I'd like her happy and content ,shopping is hard as dogs arnt allowed in supermarkets so iv got to train her to stay at home in a safe environment as she will be with me most of the time as I work from home thankyou for your amazing tips 🙏🏽

    Another good reason for crate training is a lot of times when you have people come work on your home like plumbers etc. they want your dogs in a crate or confined and do not want them in their area so if your dog is crate trained it is less stressful on the dog if they are already trained. I know my neighborhood whenever I have to have anybody from the gas, electric or phone come in I always have to have my dogs contained.

    There are a lot of things we didn't do well with our border collie because we didn't have this knowledge, but somehow we must have done something right with the crate. The crate was his safe space and he preferred to be in it at night and during thunderstorms or times when he might otherwise be anxious. We got to a point where we didn't shut the door - he would just go there because it was a place he felt safe.

      Thats just because dogs are very prone to habits.. they like to do the same stuff every day, get food on the same times etc.. I wouldnt reccomend getting a crate though.. people tend to put their dog in the crate and lock it in way to often ... i just think thats sad, a dog aint no hamster.. Ive had 6 dogs so far from puppy, never once used a crate... Usually takes about a week to house train them..
      Also a boarder collie is a very hard dog to get/keep/train... they need a lot of attention and atleast 2 hours of walking off leash every day... if ur not up to that then ur doing ur dog a disservice.. u shouldve gotten a hamster dog at that point cause all bigger dogs really need their walking times.. but esp working breeds like collies...
      If u do the 2 hours u will see that ur dog gets to be a lot more fit/healthy but also more satisfied overall.. And at that point u dont need a crate anymore cause they will be happy to just nap on their spot cause they want to save their energy for the next walk!... wich they know is coming up.
      Id say the biggest mistake people make with their dogs is not walking enough... and ending up with a frustrated dog that has too many left over energy.. And when they get older it esp gets important because they will also live a lot longer if they have a good physical condition..

      @@larsvegas1505 Crates are fine, they aren't like a little jail to them like they would be to a human. In fact, dogs will often prefer their crate if crate training is done properly. My 7 month old yorkie now has complete freedom in the house and regularly naps in her crate by choice for hours.
      Also puppies aren't typically going to be fully housetrained 2 weeks in if you are getting them at 8 weeks so I am assuming you get yours a little older...when they are very young crate training can be super helpful when you can't supervise them 24/7

    I like the puppy line idea, particularly cutting off the wrist loop at the end. I would fear the risk of strangulation if the line is clipped to a collar. Would it be safer to clip the line to a body harness? I would feel anxious about leaving the line on the puppy unless I was in the same room. I've had my best success with positive reinforcement of good behavior and using bait and switch instead of scolding for bad behavior (example: give him a chew toy when taking back your slipper)

    PERFECT video!! It's too bad every dog owner doesn't see/listen to these words of wisdom-what a different world it would be!! So many puppy owners wouldn't give up when the going gets rough, and I'd be willing to bet dollars to dog donuts that shelters wouldn't be overflowing!! The average age of shelter dogs is that adolescent age between 1-2 yrs when the novelty has run out and their cute bundle of fur has grown and become a wild, destructive lil monster bc the average Joe just didn't understand how to go about proper training and communication from day 1.

    Great advice. I have two 7 week old puppies and I'm already training. They are learning really fast. I never thought about the House Line but I want to try it now. Making a crate a punishment is just cruel. At that point you just don't understand dogs. Mine has a few blankets inside and covering the top to make it cozy and safe for them. I kinda want one for myself to be honest..

    Thankfully, both my wife and I work from home, so we are able to be with our puppy 24X7. I have owned and trained many dogs in my life, and I agree. People get home and immediately give the pup the run of the whole house. BIG mistake. We've had our newest puppy home now for a week. When I am working in my office, which is in the corner of the my living room, I put on his lead and and loop the other end around the legs of one of our heavy sofas, so that he can only move around in the living room where I am, when I am there.

    Super interesting. The direction of the video (camera zooms/pans, walking around, topical cuts of dogs doing things) does an excellent job of keeping your attention in the right place. The only time my attention wandered was when she asked "how long should I use x"; I couldn't help but roll my eyes at the obviously incoming "It depends" and started thinking about ways to ask the question better that would lead viewers to the correct (goal-oriented) train of thought more efficiently. That said, I'm sure the way it's asked is meant to specifically take people who default to thinking of "How long" in strict measures and put them on the right path.
    Overall, you can tell that like 60% of their job is training the dog and most of the 40% leftover is training the owners; they're clearly well practiced at both.
