*The covered bowl is a good tool because it prevents the dog from accidentally getting the food. As I said in the video, errors will set you back and erode your reliability. A cover helps you make it error-free.

Just want to say thanks for getting straight to the point with these videos , other channels jump around and then want to sell you a book
Hey thanks! Glad they're helpful!
Zak George LOL
@@ragnarok6799, yes exactly!
I like Zak, he’s got his style and it helps. I do love Sypawtico for the streight-to-the-point-edness!🤣
i’m literally obsessed w you showing us from the dogs POV what saying gentle over and over every time is like!
The “leave it” command is one of the very first command I teach. Living in a city, there are all kinds of nefarious items left around. It is also useful for teaching your dog to ignore your kitties.
Also helps if you have a reactive dog and you are trying to train them to ignore other dogs. My older dog is an alert guard breed, but if I tell him to "leave it" he does a lot better at ignoring other dogs. Before I trained this command he had no clue what I was asking when I was trying to get him to ignore other dogs, but once I trained the command, at least he knew what I was asking, and would comply sometimes.
Your videos are very professional.
Thank you!

In my opinion, this is a vital skill for any puppy or dog to have. Not only is it for safety (stop them from eating things, or chasing things), but it also helps to build impulse control. And it's so versatile, to help with many different behavioral issues.
For sure. It's one of the main things we teach in our Puppy Classes!
With methods like these, I've been teaching my parents 7y.o. mini Australian Shepard to not snatch food from your hands and to not steal food from other dogs. The side effects of training like this have been amazing and the restraint she learned here has carried over into other aspects of how she conducts herself.
YES! That's exactly why I love these exercises. Great job!
Really?!?! 7 years. Old? I live with the dumbest dogs ever because their owners are lazy butholes who don't care about their well being. Sad to say but it's true. I don't really care to train them since I honestly have grown to almost hate them for their nightmarish behavior and because they're not my effing dogs but if this can be a start I would do it simply to get some peace and perhaps even make the dogs less miserable. I don't want to see. Them. Suffer at the hands of lazy owners but alas they aren't my. Dogs. I don't like big dogs. And it's not my. Responsibility to train them. I wish more. People would understand how much happier dogs are when they have structure like this 😢💯💞
@@SarahSkinnyJeans Despite the old proverb old dogs can actually learn new tricks. I'd wish for you to find the motivation to train them a little. It's not the dogs, that are to hate, but the owners.
@@BeccaBuckLebowski they are smart too. I know they are. It's just like blegh. Why get dogs if they are going to ignore them and leave them untrained.
I have other things going on in my life. It's just exhausting. I'm sure the poor doggos at exhausted too
@@SarahSkinnyJeans Did you have a talk with the owners about the issue? A civil talk, I mean, not yelling and fighting over it (no offense!). Because it seems to be quite an issue. And if you guys live together that sort of problem has to be solved.
I watch and apply your tips religiously. Thank you so much!
Perhaps adding a patreon or paypal at the end for tips from thankful subscribers.
6:20 omg the editing killed me! great video!
Follow this guy, don’t waist your time anywhere else. His stuff works great.
Love the way you present so many techniques so clearly.
I’ve watched a few of your videos and they’ve already helped me sooo much, definitely subscribing
I love all your beautiful video they are so much fun and beautiful to watch cause I’m learning so much.
Thank you so much for taking the time to post this beautiful video.
The little puppy is vibrating with energy! I truly appreciate your videos- they are informative, instructive, and doable. Thank you!
Recently discovered your videos and you have a lot of great tips for dog owners! The only one that I found so far that I would challenge is the "Leave It". Personal preference only, I wouldn't let a dog take an item after telling it to leave it. If the dog was to have the item after, I would use 'wait'. Leave it is something I use for items that are off limits like dropped pills, chocolate, macadamia nuts, unknown items on the street that has caught their interest, etc. Wait means it will be allowed to have it eventually. Wait I use to teach a little self discipline / impulse control. Wait to go outside, wait to approach their dinner bowl, wait to get into the car and as a result, when I say wait in a dangerous situation, they stop and wait and it prevents accidents from happening. Leave it has stopped them from picking up tainted meat pieces in the dog park.
Look forward to watching more of your videos and have already been recommending them to people who have dogs or are in the process of adopting one!
I can see the usefulness of this approach... the training isn't too different or much more, either.
This is something I don't understand either, too bad he doesn't respond to why letting a dog take an item after telling them to leave it. I can't wrap my head around that one!
These videos are so good. Very well explained and love the demonstrations shown. Why anyone would dislike these videos is beyond me.
Just wanted to say thank you for what you do. Very helpful
You're welcome! Thank YOU!
Best, clearest videos ever. Thank you so much!
Leave it and take it. Fantastic coverage of important skill especially for safe travels.
Your channel is awesome!! Your sense of humor is refreshing. Thanks man.
Thank YOU!
Very great videos man! Utterly impressed! I get goosebumps everytime i watch this guy cause hes so good
I just adopted a sweet rescue pup who is 18 weeks old. Your videos have been an absolute savior!!! Crate training is going beautifully, he is learning basic commands like sit, down, take and leave it (thanks to this video!). The one thing I am struggling a lot with right now is his nipping/biting my hands while playing with toys. He is extremely gentle with getting treats/kibble out of my hands but when we are playing with toys he bites my hands. I have read many articles on this and I know he is in prime teething mode but I would love to know the most effective strategies to discourage it. I have read that you should not take you hand away but instead make a high pitched yelping noise to let him know its too much. This doesn't seems to be helping very much. We also try to always have a chew toy on hand to give him (which he loves) instead of our hands but he still wants to chomp down on our hands too. More tips for biting inhibition during play time would be great!!
Sounds exactly like my 13 week old Miniature Schnauzer no explanations in videos or books have worked.
THANK YOU for this, it's so easy to understand and the demos (with text!) are extremely helpful!
Tried this with my little dude today and he did super well! He's about to turn 14 weeks and we're still struggling with bite inhibition. Your channel has been a fantastic resource and has already calmed my nerves MANY times. I wish I'd found it on day one!
These videos are superb! Thank you!! Gonna start teaching these to my 4 month old Aussie!
Wow! This is super useful... Thanks Ian!!
luv your videos! keep up the good job
Thank you, Pris. Will do! ;)
Awesome video! Very informative and on point as always!
your videos are helping me prepare for bringing my puppy home in a few weeks! thanks for the great content
My pleasure! Thank YOU!
Your videos are fantastic. As you stated, there is tons of conflicting advice out there but I love how you connect your training methods to love and logic - everything makes total sense. We are struggling with puppy biting but I think all the training around mouth control in addition to the ABI will help us. Thanks for your work!
Thanks for this video, my puppy learned the basics in a day!
Thank you, thank you, thank you! You explain things so well!
Im so encouraged! We have An 11 week old English Bull Terrier and we began applying your advice on “what to do about puppy biting” when she was about 9 weeks and we have noticed a significant reduction in her intensity, she lets go very quickly when we let her know it hurts now and is mostly a lot calmer, one part there I couldn’t even walk around the house with shorts on because she seemed so fixated on biting everything that moved, but your advice seems to have changed this... i can see the energy we put in to her, is the energy we get back from her both in the long run and the momentarily... It seems she really is a reflection of my behaviour towards her in many ways, it’s very though provoking. Your videos have provided us not only with guidance on what to do but reason as to why it matters why we should do what we do, this makes a world of difference and I’m so grateful and so encouraged to put into practice what you teach! Thanks again you guys are amazing! 😊
We are bring home our first puppy on March 9th and I am beyond grateful that I stumbled upon your channel! This is just so much helpful information.
Great video! My Great Dane puppy needs more practice taking things gently as she grows and is developing her adult teeth. I will be sure to use your advice! How about a video for jumping and biting when playtime gets them all hyped up, including nibbles to your pants or the back of your shirt and sleeves?
yes please - me too!
Me three!
HUGE help in training for therapy dogs! Especially given chemicals and/or pills anywhere! Hats off to you! Ya, hand feeding... totally worth it.... make sure you carve out dedicated time :)
Admittedly had to hit rewind when you said that!
Thank you so much! I have a half-mix German Shepherd puppy and she is to much snappy and will slurp everything that falls on the floor. Will definitely start the training today!
This has been so successful with our Shih-Poo puppy! Also your Kong video-thanks for the great training for us humans! 👏🏼
You're so welcome!
Love your channel, great videos!
Thank you!
Best training videos on TH-cam by far.
Thanks!
Great delivery! great endings in all your videos. Very professional. Thank you.
just started watching your vids instantly subscribed. Thanks for the advice keep up the good work
Thank you!
thanks Ian I've just watched your videos about harnesses and leads and you have really helped me with my dog and going for a walk. she used to just pull but know she's calm and trained.
Fantastic!
Hi Ian, you got this! I appreciate your practical and compassionate approach to dog training. Just got my pup 3 days ago and today we busted through the 'home sick stage' and started to really begin to build our relationship, I caught my pup, Alo, looking for me when we were in the backyard! The thing I wish I would have realized most on full day #1 is his need to nap. I took him out for an outing in the neighborhood and he growled at a 9 year old child who was being very respectful. He is only 8 weeks old, a shepard collie and usually a bit too submissive, (I saw his bio-mom step on him several times, she was very careless around him and his brother...) I went home and looked up how much time a young puppy needs to sleep, about 20 hours a day! I had played with him for about 4 hours that morning with only a few short naps. This was an eye opener that I wish I understood. You may have addressed this, and other important info about getting a puppy that I missed. Another thing is he came from a very quiet rural setting and I live in a city not far from an airport, the trucks, planes and automobiles are scary! I have been comforting him when it happens but wonder if I am 'babying' him? Finally, I feel confused in my attempt to be alpha, I am trying and have some things down. Tonight when he bit too hard too many times I said 'ouch louder' and turned away. He went silent and after a long pause I yawned and turned back to him, he licked my hand and stretched to get his belly rubbed, which I did. Any more on that? Alpha for Alo? I want to be amicable alpha.
You provide great training for us humans! Thank you Ian! I wonder, since you asked, could you do a video on early signs of resource aggression? Thanks for all you do! Oma and Alo
3:20 LOL. Super helpful as always. Thanks Ian!
Have been enjoying your videos. Thanks! Would love to see you do a video on making a rescue dog feel more comfortable with their new home. I recently acquired a female dog from a kennel and that's all she knew. She is so timid and afraid of everything. We have had her a month now and she is slowly coming along but its going to take a long time for her to get to know the real world out there. Thanks again.
Thoroughly enjoying your videos, and am already finding them SO HELPFUL as I train up our new 8-week old Weim...I couldn’t get her to DOWN until watching your video. This morning at breakfast, we got it using your technique!! Thank you!
Great style for training. Getting a new Airedale soon, should be interesting.
I'm in the process of adopting my first dog. Your videos are such a big help. I'm so excited about bringing her home.
Fantastic! Good luck!
I've missed these! :D
Thank you so much, Ian, for giving such precious advise. You are one of my heroes now. I have just practised this with my 10 weeks old Pomeranian and he understood within 2 minutes that crocodile biting is an unwanted behaviour. My 13 year old daughter watched and also trained our puppy in the way you showed us. She is delighted how well it works out. Here you have 2 new fans and followers from Northern Germany. Danke schön.
Great Videos ....Thank you for your amazing work, best videos ever....getting a puppy in just three days
I'm so pleased to discover your videos!! They zero in on many of my concerns and are
a great refresher for me. Bella is different from my other dogs that grew old with me.
She is about 5 years old and has her own history. We are learning together! You provide
such common sense!! Thanks so very much!!
You're so welcome, Becky. Best to you and your doggie!
I put my deposit on my baby right after his parents were bred. It's been months, I'm very close to bringing him home and the anticipation is killing me! I've always rescued adult rotts from rescues, this is my first baby. I've been watching & reading training advice for half a yr, I'm enjoying yours the most. You've answered most of my questions without having to actually ask them, which finding the answers to all my questions has been so difficult with so many different opinions and training methods. I've found that we're of like mind in approach. So I just feel compelled to say Thank you. 😁 Getting this puppy feels a lot like getting ready for a child. I'm so excited but very nervous too. I just want to do everything right! I've tamed and trained the worst of the worst adult rotts who've been abused and neglected, who could have easily eaten or maimed me....yet doing right by a baby frightens me more. it's strange.
Makes perfect sense. Repair work is easier and more straightforward than getting a fragile, blank slate. That means screw ups are on you, not someone else. I get it; it's scary. Good luck! You've got a good attitude going in!
Such great videos! This is something I've been working on with my almost 2 year old Great Pyrenees and there a lot of tips to make her even better! I adopted her from a farm only a few months ago so we have to break a lot of bad habits and teach new good ones. The biggest problem I'm having is how territorial of the house she is. We usually have to gate her off into a separate area so that guests can come in the house. And she does not like that! A video on guest manners and interacting with other dogs even would be helpful!
We hand fed our Boston/Pitbull puppy once with this method and he starting biting much softer towards the end. Excellent video!
Thank you for this teaching. Solid guidance for me and my new pawfectly wonderful puppy, Sadie von HoneyBear!
Love your work!
Thanks, Zach!
Love your videos! Have a 9 week old Frenchie pup and today we started this session. after two meals he will now rest his head on my wrist patiently staring at the kibble in my palm for a good 5 - 10 seconds waiting until I say "take it". This technique works so well!
Your videos are incredible; so much information that is actually correct. I only wish I would’ve found your channel when I first got my dog. He is now 8 months old and I’ve basically re-set training with tips from your videos. Hopefully I will have a well-behaved dog in the near future.
You still started when the dog was young! How’s the training going now? (Hopefully you see this 😅)
As a new GSD puppy dad, these videos are priceless. Thanks.
Glad you like them!
Definitely the clearest videos on you tube to follow (and I've looked at lot) - really helping withy my extremely wilful Husky X GSD I rescued recently!
Thanks for that! Glad it helped!
Amazing content and depth of knowledge brother!
Great video I love that you take it in slow steps
Excellent video once again. I so wish you lived in the U.K. I'd be the first one to sign up to your classes!
Thanks, Pat!
Awesome tuition.Thank you.
Thank you! Can’t wait to try this with my super smart working puppy! She loves having a job
Wonderful!
Wow prachtige site, leer er veel van dankjewel 🤗
Wow!!!!! Awesome information for my new baby Doberman thank you so much I really appreciate all your videos and all the information good stuff God bless you and yours always I'll keep watching!!!!!👍
Wow another excellent tutorial ! I trained my late dog in obedience, support and agility and thought i knew what i was doing, but im about to get my next dog and know that i want to improve on a few details i got wrong. You cover exactly that - like still hand feeding the treat after dog leaves it on the floor. I learn something new in every one of your posts - who says an old dog cant learn new tricks !
Happy to help!
Great videos man. I hope you get the subscribers you deserve. Well produced with a great knowledge base behind them. I would love to see a video on helping dogs be more independent (ie. being OK with staying home alone). That topic has been a struggle with my pup Gordon (5 months). He's a dream in every other facet. Keep up the good work. Cheers!
Hi Sam! Thanks for the kind feedback! And that's an important topic, for sure. Check out the Kong video on my channel to get started with being alone, and I'll be doing more videos on that topic this year. ;)
Check out his Kong video!
anxiously awaiting your experience on this topic. oxoxoxoxox
Ian, your teaching style rocks. We are training a rescued pitty jack to one day be my personal service dog. You are training US by explaining the “whys” behind the techniques. And they are working so well. THANK YOU!
Thank YOU, Tammy! Really appreciate the feedback!
YES! So great - just did this and pup was SUPER responsive!
Great job!
New to your videos today, but wow, really impressed with your knowledge, techniques and presentation. Superb stuff, thank you so much! :))
can't wait to see the drop it video!
Here it is! th-cam.com/video/lDZpz448uMU/w-d-xo.html
Ian, you are amazing. We have had our rescue pit-mix for a month and a half, we have paid two different trainers-- you make soooo much sense and WE CAN UNDERSTAND YOU --
I'm so happy to help! Best to you!
Randomly saw this. The attention detail deserves a sub for sure
Can you train other people to not encourage bad habits in your dogs lol
OMG I wish!
I've been working with my dog and she listens to me pretty good. Will she eventually extend that to my family members or is it necessary for them to work with her also?
I keep a spray bottle, not for my dog but for bad humans loljk
the family should work with the dog as much as possible
I need this for my family orz
What I love about your advice is that it is all based from a dog perspective, and not a human perspective. I just subscribed!
Welcome!
You are so awesome!! Your videos are sooooo helpful!!! Thank you :)
You're very welcome!
Excellent video as always! Would love to see a video on teaching fetch!
Greets from Italy, i just subscribed and i love your videos. I'm about to become a first time dog owner in two weeks! It's going to be a Jack Russel pup, and i already know it's not a great beginner dog but he really needed to be rescued and well... here we are. The guy at the dog kennel is all about the "yeah you gotta be the alpha of your pack and assert your dominance" and frankly he creeped the hell out of me. By watching your videos, and one other channel, i'm starting to understand exactly why i didn't love what he had to say. Anyway wish me luck, and keep making these videos! Thank you!
Hey there! First, congrats on your new little buddy! As you know from my vids, I LOVE my little Jack Russel. He's a riot! And good for you for rescuing! And second, yes, you are SO RIGHT about what that guy said. Good for you for listening to your gut. GOOD LUCK to you and definitely let me know how it goes!
Thank you so much for this video! I have a 12 week dachshund puppy. I started hand feeding her lunch and dinner today. For lunch, I said "take it" with each piece (or pieces) from an open hand. She also had to be seated and look at me for each piece. For dinner, about half way through, I started holding my hand closed and saying "leave it". After several handfuls, she would just sit and wait for me to open my hand and say take it. She also had to look at me with each piece. It was amazing to watch her go from agitation (because she was so hungry initially) to calmly waiting for me to give it to her. Thanks for the step by step actions. I'll continue to do this and transition to her "leaving it" when it's visible in my hand or on the floor, etc.
Thank you so much I did take it for about 2 minutes now he knows that then I did leave it for about 4 minutes it worked thank you so much!! 😄
Well done!
Simpawtico Dog Training has become my dog training bible. Thank you Ian for making these videos simple, understandable and bite size.
I would like to know how one would go about reprimanding a dog to learn that a certain behavior is not preferable? How do you ask your dog to stop when there are guests around? And how do you teach a dog to settle quietly if they are not food driven? Is there a way to make their food more appealing to them without upping the anty of the food?
Your videos are amazing, thank you!
Learned a lot from your videos
You killed it. Thanks!
Loved your video! Will start training my 2 month maltese with this today :D
Great! Let me know how it goes!
Great motivation to help my dog and I to work together
Very well done. Thanks
Thank you! Glad it's helpful.
Great video, thank you!
Great videos! Very helpful! ! Could you do a video on training dogs not to rush to fence to bark at neighbor's dog. In my community we have shared fences. On one side my dog and their dog agressively bark and chew at fence when both are outside at the same time.
This is a great vid! Thanks Ian! ~other topics: how to get my dog to ignore other dogs on walks, stop barking, stay off
Thank you for your fantastic videos. I wish I knew how to schedule a one and one appointment to help our little puppy with his separation anxiety which has made crate training like hell for us. :(
The way we teach "Leave it" at the shelter where I volunteer is not give a dog the item that they were told to Leave so that they don't get the impression that "Leave it" is temporary. This is relevant for toxic items.
Probably mixing it up is OK once the behavior is learned, but I'd be inclined to teach that once Leave it is used, that the item is not offered until it has left their mind.
You pack a lot into these videos and I am very grateful for all your awesome tips. Many thanks!!
Hi George. Yeah, I get that a lot from other trainers. While I see that it's an intuitive approach, in over ten years of teaching it this way it doesn't really play out that way. I've never worked with a dog that didn't "get it" because I used the same food reward as the decoy, especially once we start to move into non-food decoys. They're a lot smarter than we generally give them credit for. Thanks for watching!
@@SimpawticoDogTraining Thank you for taking the time to reply with your great advice borne of experience - I am so glad to have discovered you!
Sure thing, mate! Thanks for commenting and sharing!
I have a blanket I use during training it helps when I'm teaching something new because I can move it to different areas or with me on the go and then I can phase it out like I do with treats and it helps them to generalize the cues a lot faster!
Good idea, Selby! Especially since new surfaces can weird a dog out. That's a good way to help them feel comfortable and focus on the task at hand. ;)
Watching your channel from Germany. Man, I've seen a ton of dog training videos on YT but yours belong to the best I found! You seem to follow a very smart and dog-friendly approach similar to the principles of Ian Dunbar (who I respect a lot), you explain very well and clearly and on top those videos are so well produced! Great job, Ian! I certainly will continue to watch! Just one little suggestion for improvement: I'd love to have sound in those scenes where you interact with your dogs to get an even better sense of how you communicate with them. Other than that: Just thank you for bringing these extremely helpful videos into the world!
Thank you for the generous praise! It means a lot. And thanks for the suggestion. I've actually been thinking about that myself. I did some in the Drop It video, but I think you're right, there needs to be more audio in general. 😉
Also forgot: Ian Dunbar's a huge influence on me. Good catch on that!
Yeah, I noticed the sound in the "Drop It" video after writing the comment. Loved it! Thanks again, you are doing an awesome job!
Thanks so much for this. I just got an 11 yo Chihuahua and 5 yo Shih Tzu and they both picked this up SO fast. They'll do anything for food and praise lol
Thx I really hope it works for us! :)
Hey Ian,
Can you please create a video about managing multiple dogs.
Thanks
Hi Don! Do you mean in general around the house? Or out in public together?
Around the house and in public.
Thanks Ian
Hi Would like a video on what to train day 1 of getting a puppy
