hi everyone ,if anyone else wants to uncover puppy training videos try Sovallo Canine Lessons Fixer (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now ) ? Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my co-worker got excellent results with it.
Update on Ace - I have gotten him involved in playing some of the games ru-vid.comUgkx1_veP7CApJK_GWy_TczaMciuG64PqJeU and I can see a difference in his confidence already! My other dog played along and he became intrigued - now its a daily part of our routine - about 3 times a day we do the shell game and the muffin tin game. I am so grateful for coming upon your training techniques!
My high heels...destroyed 😂! Yes my puppy loves eating and chewing on the heels of our shoes and playing tug of war with our bras!!! He’s definitely a boy 😂😜
I love your training philosophy... all patience and love. no hurting the dog and losing one's temper. i have enjoyed you years ago and now again with a future new puppy. keep doing what is so needed and so appreciated. thank you so much. best to you and Brea.
yeah he's just pumping/hyping up everyone around him, especially the dog. somebody told me to check him out and watch one of his videos.. couldn't finish this one, he just started to annoy me with his hyper behavior. i definitively never give him one of my dogs
When u say 'ouch' the puppy thinks that you are a prey. My dog had botched attack training and we had give him up for adoption after he tried to bite my newborns head off and my wife lost it 😅😂😂
Every time our puppy(12 weeks old) bites we say “OUCH!!” And then we ignore him until he gently apolagizes by either licking the place he bit you at or putting his nose against it. Its sooo cute when he does that!🥰
Yeah I've been trying that on my 9 week old boxer puppy lmao she just starts barking and chewing on shit she shouldn't be lol so then I can't ignore her because I gotta make sure she doesn't destroy my room lol
Thank you. I am the primary person taking care of our dog (she’s only 13wks old, and we have had her since 8wks old) and my husband keeps blaming me for not training her right and saying she’s biting excessively and that it’s not normal. I was so glad to find a video showing a puppy doing exactly what our pup does so I could show him. She is gradually getting better, but it’s only been about 5 weeks since we got her, and my husband apparently expected instant results, so I’m glad you informed us it can take months, and it can last until 5 months, so we don’t have unrealistic expectations. Everything you mention in this video works better than anything else for my girl! Another thing that helps is teaching her a word to associate when we put her in her boring area to calm down, so when she starts biting I use the word and she usually stops because she doesn’t want to go to her boring area (gated off hallway) lol
Im glad you posted this; my partner keeps saying i dont train ours because shes always biting then i turn around to see him razzle her up with his hands!!!!
Same exact situation here. My husband keeps complaining that our 8 wk old bites too much but he rough plays with her and doesn’t do much trainings😑. Hoping these tips help!
What I like about your channel is that you don’t enforce rules negatively. I’d rather have a dog that follows rules and loves me over time than a dog who follows rules immediately and doesn’t form as strong of a bond
That's just stupidity. Do children hate their parents after the first taking away of the video game or the first timeout? Dogs are FAR more forgiving than humans. You can positively punish animals and still be loved and respected by them. And the results are faster, more permanent, and in no-way do you have to be even remotely inhumane to do it. If we watched him constantly we'd find he DOES use negative reinforcement AND positive punishment. The "positive only" is a sales pitch to snag consumers like you who unintelligently (read: _emotionally_) give it value.
You know I was actually discouraged by my puppy, until I watched your video. I almost completely gave up thinking he’d never learn until he gets older, you’ve given me hope to keep trying with him and it worked. He’s slightly calmer when I pet him and doesn’t always go for the bite. Thank you sir for hope!
I have a German Shepard and when he bites it hurts a lot, I haven’t drew blood though but he kind of scares me cuz if I like hide my hand or get on the sofa (my dog is only 9 weeks old so he can’t reach me) he barks ;-;
@@lodi7596 I would try and get that under control or corrected because we have a german shepherd too and it only got worse, it really hurts but my dad is so stubborn he won't do anything about it, he always goes about everything in the wrong way and my mom won't do anything because its not her dog so she doesn't want to do anything either. So I'm stuck constantly being bitten by our 8 months old almost 9 month old puppy.
We bought our dog a week ago, (golden doodle) and already taught her to not bite; we also taught her to come when called, to sit, to go “down”, and she’s in the middle of learning “roll over”. Here’s how we taught her not to bite. First, hold their mouth closed and say “no bite” or “no biting” in a stern voice. Then introduce a toy for them to bite instead. If they bite the toy, pet them and say “good dog” and reinforce that biting the toy is ok. If they bite you again, growl and say “no biting” more assertively/angrily. If they bite a third time, put them in their cage, once again say “no biting”, throw in a “bad dog no biting” and leave him there for 5 minutes. He/she will whine/whimper but DONT LOOK AT THEM FOR 5 MINS... it hurts bcuz emotionally you feel bad they’re sad but it’s the only effective way they’ll learn. Shock collars DO work, based on studies; but they’re extreme and shouldn’t be used unless all else fails. The key is NEVER TOLERATE THE BITING. If you tolerate it, or if you howl in pain, that actually REWARDS them. Never show pain- dogs like that, it’s instinctive... and they’ll also feel alpha over you. If they bite you, they should only feel negative emotions and isolation if needed, immediately afterward, so that they learn to stop biting.
This has seriously saved and taught me so much about training. I am literally teaching myself how to train my puppy and it has little to do with them, so much as it does starting with me. Thank you
My dog is 4, when we first got him at 8 weeks he never bit anyone or chewed anything other than his toys, he’s so laid back. I’m so thankful that I didn’t have to put up with that 😂😅
My parents yells at our 3 months old pup when he bites them. I said "stop yelling at him, he won't understand what you're saying. Yelling at him to stop is like yelling at a baby to stop crying"
Lilmintypup Artist & Gamer The puppy is just having fun. Noticed that near the end of the video, Zak holds the pup far enough away that he can't bite his face.
@@gloriacarr2525 Push through. I had a horrible puppy who made my life hell for 6 months. I loved him, but training him was a nightmare. I pushed through and he finally got it. He lived until Dec 2020. I had him for 14 years. Best dog ever. 🥲
@@NotUrAvgChic thank u I'm going to stick in there & so sorry to hear about your dog I know how that can feel I had a cat I was attached to & she went on to cat heaven
I can confirm that giving them tug toys helps a lot. My dog used to be a big biter puppy too. She is super gentle dog now. But when playing rough, she still manages to land a soft bite sometimes. It's almost never painful, but I still correct her behavior by closing my hand around her snoot (she hates it), and staring intently into her eyes, then walking away for a while. She knows she did something wrong.
Your videos are so helpful! You have helped me train the most gentle and obedient maremma sheepdog :) Now my maremma knows how to sit, he doesn’t bite, lay down, high five, fist bump, spin and stay
hey ,if anyone else trying to find out house training your puppy try Sovallo Canine Lessons Fixer (do a google search ) ? Ive heard some awesome things about it and my mate got great results with it.
I just wanted to send a huge thank you. Our 3 month old standard poodle was biting, jumping, etc. I watched a bunch of your videos and was able to do some training with her and the change in her behavior in a short time has been such blessing. Thank you again!!
@@k-world777 my grandad actually did that to my old dog when she peed on the bed He put the face of the dog on the pee and started hitting it with newspaper....I got mad of course, it was a very smol puppy.
The correct "newspaper smack" is to play (engage) with the dog physically, when it bites your hands then grab the jaw or maw and don't let go initially as they try to pull away. (for about a second) That way they don't ever fear being smacked (or grabbed by the jaw) because they never have the conditions in the present in which they were smacked in the past show up because that never happened unless they had their mouth around someone's flesh. Newspaper smacks happen AFTER and the dog CANNOT associate the smacking with the biting. They simply stop biting from withdrawing engagement with the human, making unintelligent people think that ALL positive punishment results in that phenomena, when in fact its just IMPROPER positive punishment.
Use 2 words no bite,or loudly eee,or small flavored ice cubes2, I personally use chicken flavored ice cubes,but you have to be quickin change of biting YOU VERSUS GIVING ICE CUBES". OR FROZEN NILA BONE
*Linda was always a pet lover. She grew up with cats and dogs, and as an adult she never went a day without one. Her current dog, a German shepherd named Max, was no exception. Linda loved spending time with Max, taking him for walks and playing fetch in the park.* However, there was one problem: Max had a tendency to bite. Linda had tried everything she could think of to stop him, but nothing seemed to work. Finally, she decided to take an online Dog training course. *The course was informative and helpful, and it taught Linda some new techniques for dealing with Max's biting problem. She was excited to put what she had learned into practice.* Within a few weeks, Linda was happy to see that Max's biting had decreased significantly. He was still a playful and friendly dog, but he no longer posed a danger to those around him. Linda was relieved and grateful that she had taken the course. It was clear that it had made a big difference in Max's behavior.
This video has been super helpful in working with my new dog! In a few days she when from biting frequently to not as often! I know she still has a long way to go, but these tips have made such a difference!
We recently adopted a new puppy and I feel like I had to learn to train them all over again! Your tips are very realistic and have been helpful so far. I hope to stop my pup from biting soon!
I hope you guys enjoy! Here's a playlist that will show you how to teach your dog the basics in order: ru-vid.com/group/PLMssKIjsDxXmMGypWsr8u-yGOUSoPoozb Thanks for subscribing!
It's because sometimes in a situations like that, running away fast from your dog triggers predatory instinct in them and they tend to bite, sometimes even really hard injuring person that had been bitten without dog even knowing it did someting wrong.
Thank you so much for making these videos for people like me to understand. I have a 6 month old Bernice mountain dog he is a very big bitter. But this has helped me to teach him.
+Arpith Prashanth Food aggression is generally guarding behavior. Your puppy is trying to protect something she values. The protocol most people recommend is to walk by the puppy whilst she's eating and drop something better near her bowl as you pass by (something like little pieces of real chicken). Puppy should turn away from her bowl and eat the chicken. Do this a few times until puppy is anticipating the chicken raining from the sky as you approach him (you'll see her head turn BEFORE you drop the chicken). At that point, you can ask for a sit and reward her with the chicken. At that point, you've pretty much changed puppy's mind from fear of you approaching her whilst eating to you approach = chicken comes.
Arpith Prashanth Hello. My advice to you is to ensure you pup understands it's YOUR food and you are letting him have a SHARE. I have 5 dogs. A Saint Bernard, 2 rottweilers and 2 cavapoos. I feed them in the same order every day. First dog in to last dog in. I hold the bowl and the dog is asked to wait. They don't have to sit but they're not food aggressive so I don't need to do this. However your pup is so getting him to lie down first would be great (once he calms after a few days a sit would be fine). Once he's in a down, put your hand out like a stop signal and say wait. Put the bowl down. If pup moves in any way towards the bowl lift it up and start again. When he stops lunging for the bowl tell him to leave it. I accompany this comand with a pointed finger more upright than at them. When pup looks at you or away from the bowl tell him he can get it. Sit with him (don't stand above him). If he growls remove the food and start again. It might be best to practice 'leave it' training before hand. Have a treat in one hand and plenty others to hand. Open your hand and tell pup 'leave it'. When he looks at you or away from the treat reward him with a treat but not the one in your hand. This'll make it easier to teach him leave it when acting negatively around his food. Pup needs to understand you are in charge and pup gets food when he's calm and relaxed, not aggressive. All my dogs have been taught this and I can remove their bowls mid meal if I need to but only for negative behaviour. Please don't remove pup's food regularly just for the sake of it or you'll cause other issues. Hope this helps. Once sorted and confident pup understands I strongly recommend anyone else in your household including children do the same routine so pup also understands the humans are top of the tree. My children 16, 12 and 9 can all feed the dogs or remove their food.
I swear by Zak’s videos’s for puppy training! They were so helpful when I got my puppy and now he is a happy, healthy, well trained adult and I always tell new puppy owners to watch Zak’s videos!
I’ve finally convinced my parents to put out applications to adopt a puppy but they said I need to research and train the puppy, thank god I found this channel ;w;
Thank you zak! Because of you my 7 month old shi-tzu/dutchan dog has learned many tricks in just a month. I am amazed by how quick they learn using your methods. I am currently teaching my dog to get me a drink from the fridge lmao.
I need serious HELP! My 8 week old pit has started biting EXTREMELY! I have done both techniques both provide her with a toy to bite Instead of my hand but she still tries to go for the hand I even bough her a kong chew toy! I have tried training her like in the video & she listens but still bites! I'm so lost & starting to become frustrated with her biting!
When my puppies try to bite, I say Ouch, Ouch! Ouch!! First week they didn't care, just bite harder! Kept to it, now when I say Ouch, the puppies change to licking! So sweet and satisfying. Thank you for the tip Zak. Love watching your channel, learned lots from you.
I have a shiba inu that is 1 1/2 years old, which bites a lot. I tried the massage methode, and well... After 30 minutes it actually worked. I'm surprised how fast that went. I'll of course repeat it every day so it gets drilled into his brain, but the methode was so good! Thanks, Zak!
My (adult)dog kept nipping me. I started yelping whenever she nipped me and soon she stopped. She was taken from her mother to early so i think she was nipping me because she didn't get to play fight with her siblings and learn that biting hurts people.
Zak: make sure your puppies have regular access to safe chew toys *looks around my living room and at the box filled with dog toys, then looks at marks on my hands and fingers* Me: I tried that...
Thank you for helping me through my life with my dog! This channel has helped me and my dog so much! From training to preparing for my dog! You guys are amazing!
Makes more sense then other videos i've tried on youtube. Puppy classes start next week, but will try your technique tomorrow. All others failed with my pup.
Zak George's Dog Training rEvolution Thank you! Have been watching your videos to help me. Could you do a video on introducing a puppy when there are other dogs in the house ? :)
Thank you so much!! This is perfect, my new puppy is in her puppy biting phase and I wanted to know what I could do to discourage it, and this is perfect!
Play tug and teach him the 'out'/'drop' cue. Get the biting under control and directed at tug and chew toys. I use tug to teach what is and is not a toy to all the dogs I train.
@@thoro7976If you're gonna be stingy about stuff like that, then here: From your first reply to this comment thread, it's everyone...not everyome. From your correction comment, it's "it's" not its. If you're gonna correct someone, make sure you don't screw up yourself. (;
