- It’s important for puppies to be comfortable with a collar and leash, and this is something we need to condition quickly! It’s easy with shaping and targeting. Eight-week-old puppy, Gibby, joined us for you to see what you can train with a puppy the first day they come home.
All the steps in this video with puppy Gibby apply to dogs of all ages, so give it a go with your dog. It’s ideal for rescue dogs! We can always make things better for our dogs, and creating a positive conditioned emotional response will help them. You’ll also see how the same shaping games help with conditioning a head halter or muzzle.

Wish I had found you Susan before I found my puppy
You're really fantastic
I LOVE this. Seeing how Susan approaches puppy training with a real untrained puppy in real time. Brilliant. I want more!!!
Thank you, @Laurelle Walsh!
Yes!!!
That pup is adorable and I imagine the wheels turning in his head on solving the puzzle: " how do I get my next treat?".
Hahahahaha! Susan's pouch pocket is like Mary Poppins's bag....she just keeps pulling out more and more things!😆Great video! I'm off to this progression with my new whippet puppy...
This is wonderful! Something else I love about it is that you are sitting on a small bench because I'm getting older and all the training videos I watch with puppies show people sitting on their knees on the floor and my knees don't work like that anymore!😂
Same. 😂
This was such fun to watch. Intrigued by your approach to training. Thanks, Susan! Patti from Calgary
This is such an AWESOME video! Will be playing/training this with my pup tomorrow! I trained my pup in one of the puppy games by Susan, and it is amazing! she is now recognizing her name. One thing that I must remember is that she is a young puppy, and it may take all day of training and play for her to grasp the lesson fully.
Remember,keep it short and happy potty after then back in xpen water and then more sessions like this and more sleep through the day with potty or feeding and or more training maybe up to five use 75% in training and 25% just in bowl in xpen or puppy's crate never leave your puppy unsupervised in xpen always put in crate like when sleeping throught the night or sleeping in xpen when you can observe your puppy to avoid any injury or issues with xpen and your puppy trying to climb out.
I have had my now 12 week old puppy for exactly 7 days now and I copied this video. He took to the collar with no problem at all in a very short time. I got my 4 year old used to a head halter using the same game. we are in Recallers and home school the Dog, and wag nation, it is hard not to get distracted, I want to learn everything yesterday, it is so interesting and so much fun. I work from home and I am not getting much work done! oh well, as long as I have money for dog food lol
Loving this!❤️💯😉✔️😊Thank you!
This is very timely. I got 2 rescues who tend to run if they see the leash or harness. Thanks for the vids. God bless.
Suzanne is the best ❤
Susan/ team thanks for all this free amazing content!
Is there any possibility that you could provide a list of basic training tools/equipment ? Or is there already any available video explaining the tools Susan uses? Thanks in advance and Regard from Spain!
Thanks for this! I have a couple questions:
1) How long of a rest break would you give in between training sessions? And would the puppy be in a crate for the rest?
2) I could imagine many puppies might try to chew almost immediately on the collar or leash- how would I handle that to make sure I'm not actually reinforcing biting collars or leashes? I'd love to see a video of you doing the same thing games with a bitey-er pup :-)
Hello Susan, can you please tell me what to do, if the puppy (9 weeks old) immediately starts biting and chewing the leash if you put it on the ground or if you show him? My other big problem is, that he is just not willing to play with me tug if I train with treats because he is so much focused on treats and he has a very good smell. So even if I put the treats away he can smell them on my hands and around, and he shows zero interest in playing tug! I haven't found anything on this issue in your videos. Thanks in advance for your reply!
If working with an adult dog would you use the same sized bowl? I'll be working up to not just a collar but a head halter and muzzle. I've seen your muzzle training before and just wondered rather than going looking for the video again.
I’m going to be getting an English bulldog puppy in a bit over a month. I would like to use a harness as they get big necks that collars seem a bit more difficult for. How would you condition the puppy to wear a harness?
Hi Jason, and congrats on your soon to be new puppy!
Susan did a podcast episode where she talks about conditioning a head halter, you could adapt it to a harness: th-cam.com/video/AXqyZYxQmMQ/w-d-xo.html
And here's where Susan explains conditioned responses (you want to create a positive one for the harness): th-cam.com/video/s5m7nZCBJQ8/w-d-xo.html
What if, hypothetically of course, the puppy wants to chew on the collar/leash?
I would swap for a toy and redirect the energy, then try again when puppy is a bit calmer. There could be other solutions
I did this with the brush for grooming. But it didn't go well. 😢
Thank you for this. Do you find certain breeds such as dachshunds more difficult to train? I have heard they don't do things like sit, potty etc.
Hello, if the puppy sleeps with me in the bedroom, how do I teach him that he can no longer be there and that he should sleep elsewhere? With other dogs?
Any thoughts on what to do with a 3 yo dog that has food aggression with other animals?
And also attacks your cats?
Hi Lynda, here's a video on Resource Guarding that will be helpful: th-cam.com/video/11bkaaX7LXY/w-d-xo.html
HelloSusan, my puppy is 13 weeks old and I done so many mistakes since that. Do you think I can restart training as she was 8 weeks old? I am not sure what to do as she is 13 weeks allready.
Hi Katy, for sure you can! Here's our Puppy Essentials playlist full of help for you: th-cam.com/video/rUIX5qW85tU/w-d-xo.html&pp=gAQBiAQB
Did you have a something How to stop puppy from growling , PLEASE.
Hi! Please, check out this episode and let us know if this is what you're seeing in your puppy: th-cam.com/video/XDdf1w_9Ha0/w-d-xo.html
Susan I wish I would have found this when my 5.5 month old pup was 8 weeks old. Is it too late to go back to basics with a pup at 5months old
Hi @cwhitteker29, not at all, you've got this!
@@DogsThat Susan my pup is a combination of some very difficult breeds He's half American Bully / Dingo/German Shepherd and he does have a hard time focusing.
Should credit Skinner not Pavlov, no? Skinner is father of operant conditioning, Pavlov is father of the method you avoid, which is luring.
Does it matter what kind of treats or cookies you give them? What do you recommend?
Great question! Check out Susan's podcast Why Your Treats Aren’t Working for Your Dog #59

How to potty train a new puppy from the pound
Hi @lelasiri7530, thank you for opening your heart and home to your puppy! Here's our video on potty training - th-cam.com/video/b1UqsXQBH1A/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ILDKPRr9oZ5nI_SI
Does Susan believe in leaving a leash on the puppy in the house at first to make it easier to keep them out of trouble? I have heard this advice from other trainers, but I'm wondering how to keep the puppy from chewing the leash right off. Any thoughts?
Hi, here's the episode where Susan talks about puppy freedom: th-cam.com/video/t-CnvRQtsIU/w-d-xo.html
It’s seems like that would be frustrating for pups
