      So our pup will be 8 weeks on Saturday he is already sitting and laying down when I tell him sit or down. I got the wrong chew toy for him it's too big, so he's bored. Any recommendations for a pitty/Shepherd mix pup as far as chew toys? As far as rewarding him, when you say kibble are you just using his food then? I forgot to buy treats 😣

    Suffering MAJOR puppy blues, picked up our 8 week old Whippet last Saturday and it’s tough.
    He cry’s all the time ( if I leave the room, when he’s in his crate, if I’m eating dinner ) and I’m getting hardly any sleep. I have just binge watched a few of your videos, they are amazing and have helped me feel less upset and alone.
    This video has found me at the right time, thank you so much

      We're so glad you were able to find this video. The puppy blues are a common feeling when first bringing home a new puppy. After all, you are now responsible for this creature who doesn’t speak your language! It can be frustrating for the humans AND the puppy! We have a great video that can give you a lot more information about how to work through these natural feelings and how to build up a great relationship with your dog. And for even more support, consider enrolling in the pro level of our online course where we can guide you with much more personalized attention!

    Lily is a 8 week old border collie. She seems very smart and observant and picks up things so fast: potty training, play pen, manding, and sit even! Lotta work still to do -jumping, biting! etc- but so pleased with a very teachable little puppy! We are a bit past middle age but we wanted to raise one from a pup, so there it is! Might could have gotten a less energetic pup, but she was toooooo cute!! Love your videos!! So helpful: it seems to me that the dog can only be as well behaved as it's training and trainer!

    Skye is 10 weeks old Sheltie. Picked her up two days ago. I am so surprised how tired I am! No, I can't get anything done! I have owned Shelties in the past and they went through puppy school and obedience and with one going on to confirmation and agility. It has been good ten years since my Pom was a puppy. She does sleep through the night and goes down for naps easily. She is good with the crate. She understands sit and fetch and learned how to use our padded stairs the 2nd day. Potty training is every two hours for her. But yes to accidents. Off to look at your potty training tips. Thank you!

    This was really helpful, thanks. I've taken (and reviewed) your crate course, which is great... pup is on day 5, so 8.5 weeks old... so my windows of opportunity are scarce and maybe you did more than mention this above, but it would be super helpful to see the training challenges with Feta, super unicorn dog, re the x-pen. My huge issue is: my pup is not food motivated! (!!!) So although I'm happy with the crate training so far (this comment sponsored by Puppy Crate Naps) the x-pen training is really hard because rewarding is so hard. Please show your challenge videos if you can! Sometimes seeing the tried-and-fails helps a lot... (p.s. I wait to feed her and do a bit of training when she's hungry, but she also has a thimble for a stomach.)

    • @HowToTrainADreamDog
      @HowToTrainADreamDog  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Being confident in the pen while alone is a skill that takes time. Puppies are not very good at that at first. It doesn't come naturally. You can start to apply the crate games to the pen, but take it at a very slow pace so it is a positive experience for her. You'll get there, but pen training just takes more time and training.

    My puppy is a 14 week old male golden retriever named Ollie, we got him at 8 weeks old and the first 3 weeks were pure hell, but he did sleep through the night in his crate from day one (thank goodness) . This is my 4th golden that I have owned but the first male, the first 3 were females. They were easier to potty train, were less mouthy and more cuddly. At 14 weeks he has the basics down, sit, come, stay, leave it, drop it, a pretty dependable fetch and has not had a potty accident in 2 weeks. He has been introduced to the leash and he is okay on it but I have not pushed it too much as of yet, I have been holding off until he is at least 16 weeks before I get too hard core with the leash. He is still mouthy but better and he is starting to cuddle more when he gets tired. Unfortunately our other dog is a 2 year old Pomeranian (5 lbs) and he plays too rough with her, once he gets his full rounds of vaccinations he will be going to puppy day care so he can play with dogs of the same size.

    Loved meeting Feta. This was such a great video, so I shared it with some friends who are thinking about getting a 9 week old goldendoodle puppy. Do males act up more than females? This was a question they had for me. I was not sure since I am new to the dog family life. Also, is it a good combo for a playdate for my 14 month goldendoodle to play with their 9 week old puppy? They are both mini goldendoodles. ❤

    • @HowToTrainADreamDog

      Great questions! Males do not necessarily "act up" more than females. Temperament can all depend on your puppy specifically, male or female!

      Our puppies learn best when provided with structure and consistency. The mechanics that you are using might not be the same as the mechanics your outside trainer is using. The best option would be to hold practice sessions together so that you can ensure that you, the other handler, and your puppy are all on the same page!

    We just got our corgi, she's 7 and a half weeks. We got her a bit early after being cleared by the vet because our breeder was pregnant and her due date was the puppy's 8 week mark. I work 8 hour in an office and I'm worried about having her in a crate that long and not playing enough or sleeping enough!! Im so stressed. Shes been great and sleep in the crate really well. But not 8 hours.

    • @HowToTrainADreamDog
      @HowToTrainADreamDog  ปีที่แล้ว

      You are right, a young puppy can't be in the crate for 8 hours. A 7 weeks old she probably needs a potty break every hour or two, and then she has all kinds of other needs including meals, enrichment, training, exposure to the world and also snuggle time!

    Awesome video! I just picked up my first 8 week old puppy this week. I hate to say it, but he seems almost too calm for a puppy. He's a golden retriever, but he doesn't really play (except maybe for 5 minute bursts sparsely through the day) and doesn't really like going outside. It makes it a little hard because I'm a hobby farmer and do a lot of outdoor activities, but he'd rather hunker down and cry/whine. He also came from a farm and has been around other animals/used to the sounds and such that they make. I worry that maybe something is wrong since every video I see all the puppies are hyper and excited to play. Is it normal for an 8 week old puppy to be so sleepy and calm?

    • @HowToTrainADreamDog
      @HowToTrainADreamDog  ปีที่แล้ว

      It sounds like he's still getting used to his new home. Take it slow and let him adjust at a pace that is comfortable for him. You want to keep his new experiences positive. He might need a little more time before being introduced to all the things outside. Focus on giving him a calm environment, cuddling and starting to get on a schedule. You'll probably see his personality emerge in just a little while.

    I am interested in getting a Cavapoo puppy. I haven't been a puppy mom in at least 25 years. My lovely little Cocker son, Cody, lived to be 19, and since he has passed I haven't had the ❤ to get another puppy. I love dogs, and I feel ready, but I have forgotten everything he ever taught me. It's time to start over. I thought this time, I would start training myself before I let her/him train me. Cody was a wonderful guy, and I got lucky, but there are things I need to do differently....now that I am no longer a "puppy" myself. In fact, my age almost discouraged me from trying this again. I am 71 yo, and I worry about my new dog out living me. My mother, who is 94, said, "What?" She told me there are no guarantees...even if you're 22 yo. I think she may have a point. Besides, my generation is living into their 100s. So, I am committed to making a little guy's/gal's live wonderful....and mine too!

      Young puppies often have tummy troubles. Just keep working with your vet to get those resolved. And don't worry about training. Just stick with potty training and crate training and getting on a good schedule and the rest pf the skills can be worked on when your pup feels better. If your puppy is on a limited diet you can use his food for training treats. If you add warm water to it and mush it up it can also be a good Kong filler!

    Hi! I am about to recieve a 8 week old toy maltipoo puppy and I was wondering if potty training is possible to do indoor and outdoors because once I go back to school in sept my parents will be out of the house.. so we won't be able to let him out to go potty. I wanted to try training him both ways to make my life and my parent's a little easier. Note: My breeder said that their puppies are puppy pad trained when we pick them up

    • @HowToTrainADreamDog
      @HowToTrainADreamDog  ปีที่แล้ว

      Puppies learn best from consistency and routine. Unfortunately if you allow your puppy to go potty indoors (even on a pee pad) you'll likely see accidents indoors for a lifetime. Keep in mind that young puppies have other needs, not just potty. So you might want to get a pet sitter or dog walker to drop in on your puppy and take care of food, potty, enrichment, exercise and training tasks while you're at school.

    Hey, I just recently got my puppy, but I’m struggling with teaching her tricks like sit, or lay down. And I’m trying to potty train her, but we keep catching her accidents late. And I don’t really know how to take care of a puppy that’s eight weeks. Now for the crate I think it’s going well because when she started to whine, I ignored her and she ended up falling asleep, and when I put her in there, she doesn’t bark.

      @HowToTrainADreamDog  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You can definitely start teaching her how to live in your human world, but hold off on any complicated skills until her brain is a little more developed. We'd be happy to guide you if you'd like to enroll in our course!

    😅 i have 2, 8 week old puppies and anytime i try to do exercises and training they start to distract each other and if i try to separate them they start to whine (they are litter mates)

    • @HowToTrainADreamDog
      @HowToTrainADreamDog  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      This is very common with littermates. It will be important to 1) make sure that each one is very comfortable being in their own crate and 2) train them separately before you can train them together. Littermates are a lot of work on the human's part. This video can give you some other good tips: th-cam.com/video/p_RDIS9yoVo/w-d-xo.html

    Ella is 9 weeks old now. She's been with us for a week. She's doing well overall but seems terrified of the pen. She's very comfortable with the crate. I put her in the pen so she can have more freedom but she barks, jumps and peed and pooped twice in there when we take our eyes off her for 2 mins.
    Should I delay the pen? I feel bad bc crate seems less room. She's 4 lb, havanese. Thank you!
