I really like that you included the part where he actually did take the cheese when he wasn't supposed to. Sometimes it feels like every time your dog does something wrong you're failing but it's really encouraging to actually see a trainer not even acknowledge that as a failure and just move forward and see the dog still be able to do the command the next time. I struggle with getting frustrated when the command doesn't happen perfectly every single time in our training but I'm starting to see that's unrealistic, even though almost no trainer has ever encouraged me that it's okay to fail. Love your vids.
Hot tip: feed with your other hand! Pick up and say marker word, then deliver in 3 steps! This will increase clarity. Love this game SOO much and I love your demo
Wait with your hand closed. If they start barking, turn away. Ignore all behaviors until you get some backing off. Then open your hand and wait a second. Then mark and reward quickly.

what do you think about age here? you say puppy... What age is IYC working best for the first time?
Depends on the dog and breed. For most puppies, they can handle IYC at 12 weeks.
@@tailoreddogtraining2911 Thank you :)
how do you play this game with a 5 month old puppy that's really mouthy?
