What I like about McCann's videos is that they always explain the theory or principle behind the practical techniques they are demonstrating. And it's always common sense (once you hear it!) and based on what's going to make a happy and healthy dog. For us, this has really helped because we can take those principles and apply them to specific situations that might not have a video devoted exactly to them. For example, we toilet trained our Australian Silky terrier puppy very quickly by following the McCann's toilet training principles, and Silky's can be notoriously slow to toilet train I've heard. Anyway, this is another great video. My biggest takeaway from it is kinda what I already know about the internet - you have to get educated so you can sift through the piles of information on the internet and elsewhere, and make informed decisions about what you are going to pay attention to. Best place to get that education is here at McCann Dog training's channel.
Dang, this is a reminder to certainly not believe internet articles. A lot of stuff online is outdated after all. Dogs are a lot smarter than people think. Dogs don't think like us, of course not but there's some things that are almost human about them.
I have a couple questions, I’m starting to feel a burnout in myself and I really don’t want my pup to think it’s okay to always use the restroom in the house. I live in a two family flat (upstairs), aunt with dementia is downstairs. The first 8 weeks the shelter told us to quarantine our pups for 7 days. I really want him to start going outside, but don’t know the steps to start working toward it. I noticed when I reduce the pup pads, accidents are more prone to happen. He always just been fixed, and I’m worried about getting any infection if I take him outdoors.
They have a playlist for the first week of a puppy and they talk about toilet training in them. We followed it with our puppy and she is pretty much completely house trained now, so I definitely recommend that method.
Can I apply to all the advice you guys share with a GSD ? I really love all your videos and ways of training a puppy or adult dog. But genuinely curious if this can apply to a GSD. Because he is going to be very strong and just afraid of not teaching him right. Thank for all the wonderful training advice you share❤
I'm just another owner but I'm pretty sure these principles apply to all dogs. Given the size of a GSD I would think you just want to make sure your dog masters these. I'd also get personalized assistance quickly if Im not making good progress so that the dog doesn't pick up any bad behaviors in the interim.
My Dalmatia would pretend to be asleep watching you eat let you take ur plate out wait 5mins till she thinks ur busy watching tv then sneak off to nick any left overs. And you could hide a treat in front of her go for an hour walk and she would come through the door and go get it.
Turning my back on my 14 week old mixed mutt does not stop him from jumping or attacking me when we’re walking and he’s not getting his way by trying to pull away or eating pinecones, so he starts attacking me by jumping and even nipping my legs. I’m perplexed and frustrated.
puppies are too energetic. people dont realize how hard it is first couple of months. but it gets better and better. as long as you are consistent with training and with walks. puppy isnt attacking you. thats play+frustration because you didnt let him take the pinecone and they dont know any better than to use their mouth to communicate. while 14 week old puppy "attacks" you, if your first action doesnt make the dog stop, it means you are just making the dog think you are playing with him
I've never seen any you tube videos showing any of this. I do wish the treats were NOT used. I competed to high level obedience in the 70's Treats hadn't been invented, RELATIONSHIP is key. Don't know if you can teach people that.
The dogs “don’t hold grudges or don’t remember “ is untrue. We rescued our beloved pup, she was returned twice. Upon working with her it was apparent she not only knew “no” but army crawled into a crate each time she was caught chewing on something or biting someone during play. It can be a stern loud no or a soft no with an attempt to redirect behavior, once she hears no, she thinks trouble or sadly a physical scold.
What you are talking about is trauma history. I think what she was referring was more regarding the healthy range of behavior. Like your dog won’t get mad at you for telling them to leave it on a walk or telling them down when they jump up or taking away a toy when time is over.

Dogs completely remember, I agree. If they didn't, training of any description cannot work. Whether they hold grudges? I certainly think they learn to be wary around certain people if mistreated, but I doubt they spend the rest of their lives planning elaborate revenge strategies - Count of Monte Cristo style - which is what I think they are referring to in the video.
Zak George is the king of bad dog training advice. His technique for keeping Inertia from bolting out of the front door or chasing cars in the yard are garbage tier. Needlessly long.

Thank you for yet another completely worthwhile video; I *really* love your approach.

That boxer wagging tail means I am afraid of you and showing you I am not a threat.

That's not a grudge tho, that's just trauma

Having had boxers, that was an excited and happy wag.
Our Boston terrier used to do that too!
nope
Like crate training which you support. 🤯
This dog is anxious.
