Thank you Susan. A budget target stick to create value for is being added to our cue giver journal learning tasks list. This channel has so many useful clios and pkaylists. 💞🐾
Great video! I have accidentally created training dens in my small house. My papillon follows me into the bathroom so I put a clicker and treats there. I can grab 5 treats after finishing my business and train 1 behavior. Small frequent training sessions work well! I’m inspired to create another training den with props room to video. Thanks for this encouragement to up my game.
We love your videos, but I was concerned out this one. It may scare people away. We live in a small house and barely get by on Social Security. Usually you show lots of options for people without resources. Dedicated space is an awesome concept. Crapper training works great. I have an old horse bowl (retired bird bath) that leaks. I am starting to use it for pivots. Four cement blocks in the yard is a platform (he is a BIG boy). An old bath mat is a moveable training spot. We scrapped together the $$ for Recallers, and it is the best money we have ever spent. We are going through very slowly because of health issues, but we will make it! Love you!
I don’t necessarily agree as someone who lives in a 800ft sq. ft, one bedroom apartment. I have a part of my living room where I can shift my coffee table to make two different training spaces. I use a coat closet and part of my utility room (laundry space) for dog equipment including beds, crates (collapsible ones like Elite Field) and behind my reclining couch (yoga mats/cones, bowls). A lot of stuff can be supplemented and Susan even says in the video a space can be as little or small as able to accommodate. I also think a huge amount of things can be exchanged for other items or not needed depending on the training. Like I don’t use a climb but I have an old stair stepper, dollar tree has a bunch of different bowls for 1.25, dollar frisbees make amazing target spots, a five dollar yoga mat can be cut into pieces for a spot/surface area to train. A phone can be used for writing, recording a training session and lesson plans. I get where you are coming from and def. Feel some things can be preached from a place of privilege but I think the general idea of a training space is possible for most people and can slowly be changed to their preferred training space.
I have a small house and, for 6 months out of the year, we are traveling in an RV. I have training supplies, not all that Susan mentioned, but those that are key organized and within reach. If not ideal, this has all still worked out well for us. That, and some creativity. Another great podcast, Happy 4th, I've watched, enjoyed, and learned from each and every one ❤🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪
A herd, a colony, or a fuffle is what I know. Also, a wrack if they are young. All I got.❤ I used to own a few rabbits. They were a huge commitment living indoors. Dogs are, too, but rabbits if become ill in any way they go downhill so quick. That was your question at the beginning. You had my attention. ❤️🤣
I don’t know but I like to think bunnies come in cuddles. A cuddle of bunnies hopping through the forest. Personal bunny experience is that my childhood bunny, named cuddles, did not like to be cuddled, and I still have scars.😂
Do you have more suggestions for training areas for people who have tiny apartments? The area I usually train in at home is smaller than your entrance. I can barely do a full 360 when doing pivots and spins (it's probably why they are a bit weak). Everything in my place needs to be multipurpose because of space and the idea of a dedicated training space is not a possibility for me. I often struggle with finding intermediate level training areas or even just easy level training areas but that have enough space for me to train what I want. Everything is either at home (in the kitchen/living room space) or outside in a city environment that has a lot of distractions and surprises.
I have a small home and have allocated most of my living room as a training den which is working to a degree. However my problem is mobility issues. I am a senior and can’t get down on the floor to train or move very quickly. I haven’t seen any videos that suggest how to train a dog if you have limited mobility. Any suggestions for training a very hyper 3 month old puppy would be appreciated.
Kindle of kicks - my Dad and stepmother used to have a farm named that - raised rabbits and Dobermans back when the first Magnum was popular. Think there's a Tom T Hall song about it too - Whole Lotta Love. Hope that helps.
Hello, can you please talk about when dogs try to resource guard 'their favorite' human from the other dog in the house? Maybe I'm just unimaginative, but even after watching your video on general resource guarding, I'm having trouble figuring out a plan. Its great to be valued, but I am not a possession! Lol
Is there such a thing as Too small of a space? I'm in a mobile, and usually use many rooms, but I technically have a " spare room" that is considered my " gym room" I could empty out. But it's only 10' by 10' ...
I have a question about using the bedroom as a training den. I go on and out of the bedroom several times a day and my girl will often follow. Will she expect “training” Everytime we go through the area or do I do something like close the door when we train to signal her this is not just a pass through?
