    Update on Ace - I have gotten him involved in playing some of the games th-cam.com/users/postUgkx1_veP7CApJK_GWy_TczaMciuG64PqJeU and I can see a difference in his confidence already! My other dog played along and he became intrigued - now its a daily part of our routine - about 3 times a day we do the shell game and the muffin tin game. I am so grateful for coming upon your training techniques!

    I love that you use a shelter dog! First because its much more realistic to see actual training when the dog doesnt know many tricks, and even more so because its not your personal dog with that relationship. And second because that dog gets to get out and play and learn, and will be maybe more likely to be adopted.

    Man, I gotta say I love how you always treat the dog you are working with as if he/she was your own. I mean the excitement, happiness ad love always shine through on your videos. I also love how you work with shelter dogs and you don't seem to mind what type of breed. You are one awesome trainer, it would be awesome to meet you and get advice on my girl, would you ever do something on digging and stealing things and destroying them? Because Dusty just thinks everything is hers from plastic bags to pot lids (I don't know how she got it either?!!) Thank though for helping with everything else :) I put most of it to Dusty and she is an all round good girl (mostly of the time)

    Zak, I have to say you've changed my approach to dog training drastically. I was lucky enough to stumble across your videos when I adopted my puppy. I was working under people who believed in e-collar and punishment based training. I very quickly changed my mentality and have even switched from Studio Art major to Animal Sciences. I want to make a living training dogs full time. I am a bit ashamed that I ever used such outdated, harsh methods, but I am very grateful that I was educated when I was. My dog has benefitted so much! Thank you!

    Yesh! Finally a good positive understanding trainer. He actually teaches dogs what to do and not just what not to do. Like you can get the treat if you do right. And not just pull his leash saying you can not get that, I stop you. He's not between the thing the dog wants and the dog. He's the tool the dog is gonna get the treat with. So the dog doesn't try to get the thing when he's not around stopping them.

    What a brilliant dog! I just signed up for PetFlow auto ship last night! We usually spoil our dog and feed raw, but my husband and I are trying to save more money so we can adopt another dog in a year or two. Plus, kibble is easier to store and train with. After a lot of research, I decided to go with Fromm, but they don't sell it anywhere in Cambridge, MA. I'd have to drive at least 30 minutes to a suburb to get it from a retailer. Having it shipped is so much easier! Hope my dog likes it although I'm sure he'll LOVE it since he loves all food.

    Question I have a puppy he was 8 weeks and I used your videos to teach him sit, stay,lay down and up. Now at 11 weeks i'm trying to get him to learn leave it and look at me. He does well. The thing is with leave it he seems to connect it with stay so when I drop the treat he waits but it doesn't work in real world. Outside he always grabs rocks to chew and when I say leave it he just picks it up and runs away further to go chew it there. What can I do?

Basically any animal with a basic ability to problem-solve can be taught and will learn with these methods. Just maybe don't try to reward the Komodo or crocs with petting and cuddles. ;) )

    These videos are all so helpful! Brings tears to my eyes because the motivation to communicate and help the dogs feel safe and proud is so genuine😭 My new shelter doggie just wants to please but I need to learn how to communicate more clearly and with consistency. Thank you!

      Kaylee Jevning it can come natural from some dogs. Or you can actually accidentally teach a dog a certain behavior

    • @TheRepaer23

      It was most likely your tone and body language. Some dogs are very receptive of it especially once you bond.

    sweet pup, thank you for this videos featuring shelter doggies ! so many wonderful dogs and cats in shelters in need of loving homes. I adopted two cats and two pitties from shelters in the last 7 years and they are the loving, sweet animals. My pitties are extremely mellow, a short half hour walk per day and they sleep the rest of the day and night...super mellow...all kinds of dogs @ shelters, high energy, mellow energy, dog friendly, cat friendly, all are individuals

  • @CAW323
    @CAW323 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks so much for this video using an untrained dog! I've watched so many videos and it's obvious that the dogs already had training and knew the commands. They are helpful of course but seeing a dog acting like my new untrained 28 lb. 7ish month old rescue puppy and how to work with that level of excitement is very very helpful! Thanks for giving this shelter boy your time and attention as well.

  • @carlinmackenzie1716
    @carlinmackenzie1716 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    This is so, so helpful. Thank you for featuring a high energy shelter dog - I just adopted a 2 year old mutt from a shelter a month ago and it has been such a challenge. It took us about that full month for him to realize sit and down were a better way to get treats than jumping and trying to snatch treats from our hands! This video gives me hope that we can continue to make progress with him even though he didn't learn this stuff as a puppy... and has really helped me remember that "leaving it" for two seconds is JUST as much a learning victory as "leaving it" for an hour.

    Man I needed to watch this again. I adopted my dog July 28, and she is crazy wild and very food motivated as well as toy motivated. I can't thank you enough for helping me. I couldn't find this video and remember how the training went. She jumps like crazy after "Sit" to get the chicken. I need to go back to "Look At Me" and get that down solid. Sit and down are done.
