- Dog training video on BACK UP - In this tutorial you will learn how to teach your dog to back up when you move into your dog’s space. This tutorial is not necessary for every dog but is great for dogs who seem to lack a sense of personal space, seem pushy or can easily become over aroused and want to climb up you. For example, when you are sitting on the couch, and your dog get’s too close to you or climbs on you or climbs up you. This tutorial is also an excellent exercise to teach your dog if they can become fearful or reactive towards dogs and people, as you will be conditioning the dog to have a positive emotional response to someone moving into their space.
It’s really important that if you have a dog who you are uncertain who will become overly reactive, fearful or aggressive when interacting with you that you do hire a professional trainer who doesn’t use intimidation to train to go through these steps first with your dog before they give you the OK to work with your dog alone. A trainer can help know when to lower or raise criteria as well as be able to read your dogs signals that they are feeling uncomfortable.
The video covers how to train your dog the behavior. Once you have done 10-12 short sessions of teaching this behavior, you can then start to use the cue in real life scenarios. When your dog is doing something you don’t like - like climbing on you, it’s important to not reinforce the dog with a treat after they listen to you to back up. Instead, redirect the dog to doing a behavior you DO want your dog to do. Like go to his bed or play with his toys on his own. Then at other points in the day, make a habit of reinforcing the behaviors you do want your dog to do. If you reinforce your dog with a treat right after they back up from jumping on you, you can inadvertently reinforce a chain of behaviors which includes the one you didn’t like. If your cue doesn’t work in real life scenarios it will need more conditioning by repetition in training sessions where the dog is calm and relaxed. Interrupting your dog’s undesirable behavior is just one piece of the training puzzle. Please review my previous video to learn more about this: • FORMULA for solving UN... When training a dog, the idea is is that STOPPING the behavior is not the biggest part of the solution as REPLACING it with the behavior you DO want your dog to do. Interrupting behavior is just a way to prevent those behaviors from attaining a reinforcement history. The sooner you interrupt and redirect dogs the less likely there will be a reinforcement history created for the undesirable behavior. So interrupting behavior is part of the training plan, but training and reinforcing the behaviors you like will play the biggest role in your behavior modification plan for your dog.

P.S. I am getting emails saying it's most likely Sue Ailsby that came up with "BEEP BEEP BEEP" for back up :)

I taught my Giant Schnauzer back up about 25 years ago and my husband thought Beep Beep Beep would be a funny cue. We did get lots of laughs from guests! 💛
Just fun facts: My gf and I adopted a BCmix puppy that's now 2yrs old and she constantly surprise us with things that she learn "by herself". For example, she learned to step aside when we say "Excuse me!" (later we noticed that was because we always say this when we need to pass by her in a tight space). She also show us what she wants when we ask "What do you want?" and follow her, and now she's almost understanding that we are looking for the cat when we ask "Where's Arya?". Of course, all this based on associations, but we were surprised how fast she picks up these things.
Those were fun facts :) Its so amazing to hear stories like these.
@@kikopup I was calling my dog, who is slightly deaf and couldn't hear me. My other dog was about halfway between us. His head went from looking at me to looking at the other dog several times, then he ran to fetch her. I did not expect that. I only taught him not to come when I call my other dog's name.
You know what, it was not a fluke. Today I tested it and he ran straight to get the other dog from the doghouse, from behind a flap. He knew exactly what he was doing.
@@Ula-Ka Wow, that's amazing. I had no idea dogs could learn another dog's name in addition to their own. How did you teach him not to come to you when you call the other dog? My dogs always come to me, no matter which name I call.
I loved that moment Splash spontaneously did a trick. so cute
Thanks for this tutorial and the covering letter. You are very consistent. The longer I watch you, the better I understand the way you educate and train.
Emily your vids are such a treat, chockful of useful information. You've obviously put a ton of work into it and you are so generous to share. I feel privileged to have found you on yt. And your dogs!! Smart, sweet and well behaved. The onlookers on the bed are to die for. Often I'm watching one of your vids, trying to hear everything you say when you say it, and then all of a sudden I see the ones on the bed and they just crack me up. I love it. Thank you Emily!
Thank you! Yes my dogs crack me up too! My dogs all have their moments of not being behaved! I have created a bad habit, that when we are all driving and there is a song on the radio with a male singer with a high pitched voice, wish starts to howl... And then everyone howls... (even me lol) and I can see people who are next to me in their car laughing to see a car full of howling dogs.
Dog Training by Kikopup just blew my coffee all over my ipad!! Best laugh of the day!! Any chance you can catch that scene on camera?
Hi, I taught my pup this cue twice like 3 minutes each with a short interval, and she loves the cue and already her "back up" is reliable. This cue is super useful. Thank you so much
Oh thats awesome!!!! :) Well done! Some dogs do struggle with back up if they have weakness in their back legs or dont have good rear end awareness.
My dog def struggles a bit with this. Did a couple sessions but it doesn't work without a lure.
Such a helpful video! I love how conscious you are about how our behaviours and movements affect how our dogs feel!
Haha! Your happy voice! Definitely sharing this with my rescue group. :)
that was a quick end ! haha but thanks for the video ,i will try it today!
Awesome video! Really love your explanations and troubleshooting! You're the only youtube dog trainer who always makes sense with her methods in my opinion and enjoy watching some random videos from you sometimes for fun and extra thinking about certain subjects. :)
Awe thanks :)
Hi Kikopup, very cute how at 2:38 Boo Boo (?) walked between your legs for "Cop Cop"! Very funny! I love your vids! They've really helped, although I still struggle to make progress with my older parents' 4yo Aussie Labradoodle... still working on Sit-Stay/Down-Stay Release cue proofing, twirling, and strengthening Leave It.
I learned "beep beep beep" from Sue Ailsby on Training Levels -- not sure if she was the originator but it WAS a long time ago! Great vid, thanks!
YES! I bet it was her! I learned it from a dog trainer but never knew if they made it up.
Thank you for all of your hard work. I really want to know how to do this with my dogs.
you’re my favorite trainer
great explanations too
Oh thank you very much! I appreciate it!
Hi, I love that you break down the desired Tasks. Where do I start with a 6 month old doxie? So much info is overwhelming.
Omg I used the beep beep beep around 15 years ago with my boxer to mean back up. I got him to the point he'd stop and back up whenever I did it, no matter where he was or what he was doing.
Never heard it from anyone, but wanted something he would easily understand. So idk who was first to use it, or who first made it popular.
Kikopup, do you think this would be a good method for when your dog greets you when you get home? My cute one year old puppy is very jumpy and excited when I get home (which I love!) but I'm aware that not all guests to my home might like it. Or is there something else that you would think might be a better method for that.
Great topic. Please consider giving some instruction on how to train your dog to not take you out at the knees when running by you. I have noticed this behavior on stairs and flat surfaces.
I would teach a cue to "slow down" , or "stop" or "watch out" meaning look around you are going to hit something.
@@kikopup lolll lollll nlbn ln Kn Kn n
Brava ragazza!good j...super ..
thanks!
''i love you
Do you have any vids on a SMART but also very loyal, aggressive behavior? I’ve had several from the Dal rescue w/o any problems, but now have a 4 ur old neutered male with issues I can’t seem to find success with this behavior modification.
Im not sure what exactly the issue is, I have a protocol for doing training set ups here - dogmantics.com/protocol-for-emotional-and-behavioral-modification/ and also for resource guarding dogmantics.com/resource-guarding-protocol/
I am getting a horse soon. How would I introduce my dog to it?
Do you have any advice if, when you move towards your dog, they go into a sit rather than moving backwards?
My puppy does fine at first. Once I have a hand with no treat he just gnaws on my hand and refuses to move.
Well that would be expected for a puppy. I suggest you could teach "back up" as a trick onto a different surface such as a mat.
In another video you said that this video was good for if a dog is on your lap and another dog approaches. How would you use this method if you are both sitting down? Or should I be doing something else?
Sorry for the confusion. The human has a dog on their lap, another dog approaches and you can tell the approaching dog to back up, or go to their bed, to prevent the one on the lap from guarding or becoming aggressive. Then in separate training sessions you could do conditioning to change the dogs emotional response to the approach. FOr the dog on the lap, you could also tell the dog a release cue like "free" to mean get off your lap and you coudl stand up and walk away from both dogs, to prevent the guarding of your lap.
Huh. I taught a friends dog to back up or get out of the way with beep beep.

Shes a really sweet and funny dog :)
I tried this and a lot of other things you show on your video's but nothing really works with my dog..I got her when she was 3 months and she had always been a stressed and easily scared, So when i try to let her stand up she runs around in circles and with her tail between her legs..Also when i'm walking her she keeps pulling on the leash no matter what i do and when she sees other people and or dogs she starts crawling or lying on her back or sits with her tail between her legs..I don't know what to do with this anymore..Been trying to train her with the clicker and other training for a year and 2 months now..Still really like your video's though :)
Hey! I would recommend consulting a trainer who works with positive reinforcement!
I think you should bond with your dog positively. So she knows working with you brings good things! Start simple, and slowly get to the more complicated things. Don't shout or scare her just be really nice.
But with this training my dog will just back up then come straight back to me for a treat? He will continue to be relentless in invading my space when I am watching tv!
Then teach him to go in a dog bed and reinforce him for settling when you watch tv. This is more for emergency situations for example preventing a dog fight over resource guarding or a dog becoming aggressive by someone moving into his space. But what you really want to do is teach the dog what you do want him to do in whatever situation. So for tv watching, you should train, settle in his dog bed. But if you get really into your film use a pen or crate so he doesnt just keep getting up to come to you. While in the pen you can randomly reinforce your dog for settling in his bed. Make sure he has had his physical and mental needs met before settling down to watch tv.
