Puppy Housebreaking Secrets 

Just got my puppy yesterday so I've been binge watching RU-vid on how to take care of it, and I must say this is by far the best video!!! Thank you subscribed!!!!

Just found your youtube page, it's amazing, thank you very much for taking the time to help us have a great realationship with our dogs, greetings from Ecuador, Latin America.

My number one reference for online dog training. Cant tell you enough how much you've influenced my own work with dogs. Thanks for another great video!

I really like the way you communicate on these videos Stonnie! I know its a lot of work but I sure would like to see more step by step sort of videos like this from you! Also if you had a podcast I would for sure listen to it weather it be about dog training or what ever else. keep 'em coming man you're doing a great service.

The dog falling at 12:25 literally made me burst out laughing, by myself, alone. I'm dying hahaha so good

It only took me two of your videos to subscribe. It's very rare to find a genuine and skilled common sense doog trainer on youtube these days.

I love your approach to exercise and mental stimulation for dogs. However, this is the first time I gotta take issue with you, Brother Stonnie! I have a foster dog who needs to be crated at night. I only have one crate. My dog is big mad that he can't sleep in a crate and only gets a bed! As soon as the morning comes and they get up for that first morning pee, he runs back to his crate to sleep for another hour. These doggies go to the beach about 3x a week plus dog parks, downtown, outdoor restaurants etc. Some dogs really do love the cozy feeling of their own private space, especially grumpy dogs with youthful siblings. I have learned a lot from you and still waiting to learn if you plan to have a train-the-trainer course.

i am loving this guy! he is hilarious and informative at the same time.. he even admits he's a lazy dog owner(not feeling as guilty as i was before video🤗)I definitely found a new RU-vid channel to binge on! the dog falling off the table and him pushing him off had me giggling.. thanks stonnie, excited new subscriber right here! fo sho! 😄

I found your "no dog goes into a field and gets full off peanuts" particularly funny. If my dog figured out how to dig up peanut plants, he definitely would. When I was first training my dog, he used to regularly go into my garden and steal kale leaves off the plants. He liked eating the stems. He still does like them, same with carrots and celery sticks. Whenever I do have whole peanuts out , or peanut butter and apples my dog does request we share. And whenever someone breaks out an orange or citrus fruit he does demand we share a slice with him. That being said I'm sure he'd love some fresh liver pate as well.

Funniest phrase "like that gimp in Pulp Fiction"

Uncle Stonnies voice has gotten deeper over the years. Still just as wise.

i know these vids are old so not sure if you're still reading the comments, but they are absolutely excellent. Thank you for sharing.

That German Shepard at the end had me dying over that Kong

Getting a Malinois in August. I'm a retiring at 59, very active. Really looking forward to using your techniques. I about busted a gut when that crate fell off the table. Keep it real!

OMG this is the best dog vid ever, the proof is in the puddin,,look at how mellow and happy and content these pooches are around this dude, great vid thanks.

the gimp on pulp fiction! -I'm rolling here. You explain it all very well. It makes sense.

Thank you so much for all the phenomenal advice! I was feeling bad about my crate training skills and your explanations not only make sense, but make me feel better about not having my dog in the crate all the time to train her!

THANK YOU SO MUCH! I've always felt this way about crates, never used one with my dog. Now that I'm getting into dogtraining, a lot of trainers had convinced me that crates are a good thing, and that they help the dog feel safe. They made me feel like I was robbing them of their safe space. I understand the need for a dog to retreat to one, but it doesn't have to be a small prison!

“If I was a working man” 😆😆😆 I felt that deep down LOL

Your tips have helped me so much. Thanks for creating great content. I hate the plastic prisons as well.

Supervision, exercise and confinement, in descending order. that logical. I thought that was the case, but you confirmed it. thanks. I picked up Anja, 8 week old Labrador last Saturday. (immunizations are up to date for her age. just in case, I pick up when other dogs come around. will do that until she is inoculated to a safe level) I'm applying your good student environment. I take her for short walks early in the am and evening around local baseball fields.its perfect because there are fences on both side of the decomposed granite pathway. This provides security and a relatively controlled environment for her to follow and experience the outside world. I've been using treats to reward when she is following me. its working, she follows close with her tail wagging straight up in the air. Sometimes when I look back to find her, its as if she disappeared....until I look at my heels and I find her sitting there patiently. Its easy to love on her. For periodic daytime use, I constructed a play pen ( open door crate, and little fence, 10 ft radius pen) for her to rest, eat and feel secure. I put this in the corner of the yard. When we come back from walks or being out, she looks tired, so I place her there. This morning after our walk ( 630am) I put her down on the side yard and she frolicked right into the play area, stopped at her bowl and looked up at me. as if to say, can you feed me? She is adapting. your words of not overloading your dog to heart.... I'm going to implement crate tips. I love the Five Guys joke!

Awesome video matey. I was in tears when they smashed the crate off the table after the kong. Your dog psychology makes 100% sense

the last few minutes of this video are genius!

Thumbs up for Pulp Fiction reference.

I was thinking “Man, that one dog really looks like a goat.” 😂

Thank you. I honestly think this will help my situation and it’s so much simpler than all the other “puppy training” videos.

Ok. So I just laughed my ass off from 12:00 minutes on. Great stuff. So real.

You need your own television show! Get this man an agent!

You are great. Love how the puppy knocked over the peanut butter on que

I don't know, Stonnie, you might well be the most awesome dog owner.

I have really enjoyed watching your videos and the love you show all the dogs. I have to say the BJJ sweatshirt was the thing that finally made me comment though.

The tongue getting stuck in one of those "KONG" type lick toys only happens when there is ONE HOLE, this creates a suction. The KONG has TWO HOLES which prevents this. There are others like the Chew King Premium Treat Dog Toy, this holds up to my Malinois' chewing from Amazon, but they all must have two holes and most do because of all the problems that happened in the past.

Thanks for the tips !!

Thank you for your video. I love how logical and sweet you are about owning a dog. This has helped me to start some of these tips with my puppy who I am struggling to potty train :)

The dogs are so relaxed, like father like sons

The kong in the crate before leaving is the best idea ever!!!!!!

I like it bro. Your a real man bro. Lucky dogs, lucky family.

Love your videos!

Uncle Si is making dog videos on youtube now, wow what a career change no one would have seen coming. BTW wheres your iced tea?

That's excellent. I'm getting a puppy Friday.

I had to laugh at some of the stuff he says, simply bc it's just common sense when you think about it. Like you thought it but never actually said it. I just subscribed.

Dude, your videos are awesome. We are very similar our approach, but you've helped me learn more. Thanks.

Hey! This is so great.. just got a pit and looking to start crate training her - thanks for the insight esp. about the peanut butter!

So good to see this, lots of happy pups ya got there so you must be doing a little something right. Not sure about the awnry goat though..

So glad I found your RU-vid channel!

Looked like the goat was ready to go in.

Always great info Stonnie!

I've been using peanut butter this whole time. Thanks Stonnie, buying wet food on my next grocery trip.

Thank you so much. This is super helpful. And I agree that plastic crates can be horrible if misused

Very superb! I will take your advice and instruction.

at 12:25 is too funny! poor puppy. He didn't even notice it :)

this guy is awesome

I have two Akita puppies. One will poop but the other doesn't always he is too busy playing with his sister. Then he will poop in the house. They will whine to go out when in their crate but they don't whine when they are out of the crate. I walk the dog 4 to 5 times a day. And more on the weekends they ar 16 weeks old this week. Any suggestions

really solid and awesome tips thanks for sharing I learned a lot

Love this guy

Nice job 👍 some good laughs as well

What specifically are you using for dog treats in this video. The dogs love it! (Bits of bacon or something?)

Stonnie is awesome! I love it!

That's a little carrier not a bigger black wire crate

Also if puppy is ALWAYS following you around - what if they have or get separation anxiety? Thx

I heard that taking them out in the back to play wont teach them that its a place for potty, just play. is that true?

This malinois has gone crazy with the pâté! ;-)

I see you with that Gracie bjj sweatshirt 👌🏻

From 13:00 this is Solid Gold, let me in that plastic prison before you leave! This is so much better than the yogurt and carrots and blueberries kongs off Pinterest

very usefull .great work .thanks you are

"BAM" at 9:34 ... dogs are like "the heck??!"

Thanks.

does anybody else get a zak galifanakis (if thats how you spell it) vibe from him?? Lol

This pooch Zippy is something else • Do Blue Healers ever make it down your way? ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-WZaaTX2TDSg.html

Great video.

I need help potty training my husky she’s 7 weeks and is in process to get her shots so she can’t go outside because she can get parvo I don’t know what to do? 🤔

Thanks for sharing have a blessed day in Jesus name

omg this is genius. I am hooked !

Hi Stonnie, thanks for your videos. I allow my Malinois access to a certain part of my house though a doggy door, which allows her to go out and potty. She is good about going outside but it's everywhere and I'm having a lot of trouble getting her to potty in a particular part of the yard. Any ideas?

watched alot on dogs on youtube. like you most. nuff said :)

If you put the dog in the crate with the toy and the dog food, and leave it in there while going to work or wherever, will it not eventually have to go to the bathroom again and just end up going in the crate? Because unless someone works from home, they can't exactly come back to let it out of its crate right? What then is the solution to this especially with a small puppy in poddy-training??

I have a dachshund that someone got from me at 8 weeks old.The people did not have time to train him properly,so he got used to pottying in the house.I made the mistake of trying paper training.So,he is very confused.He is also VERY distructive.But I have to get him trained or he has to go to the pound,not my choice.My daughter will get rid of him.George belongs to my two year old grandson and they love each other very much.George has had some accidents upstairs.Do you have a water schedule?He sleeps with us(my grandson and I),so he gets up thru the night to potty.Do you have a feeding and watering routine?Please advice me.Dachshunds are a very stubborn breed.I do believe he has been abused,because of pottying in the house.I have a two year old with me at ALL times.PLEASE help.I love George and want to keep him.And how can we break him of barking at people in the house.

such a great video!!!

I trained my dog in 3 months to go outside and hold it for several hours

5-10 Acres in Denver, Colorado. 😂😂😂

What about at night, do you think it's good to keep a puppy in a cage at night like in your room?

Anyone else have a minor heart attack when he swung the racket? lol

Anyone know what kind of dog Criter is?

LOL, you are funny. Def. watching more of your video's on training.

Great video, man. I hope you don't take offense to this, but you remind me of Will Forte in Last Man on Earth. More voice and apperance, not so much mannerisms. Keep rockin on!

My friends basset hound will eat peanuts all day long, if I shell them. One for me, one for him. He prefers one for him, one for me, one for him. Then start over.

Great vid

This is great! Thank you!!

Ok so first of all i love your video fam!!! And second of all you remind me of the guy from that movie the hang over lol ...im subscribed now... im getting my xoloitzcuintli in November

LOL at the random farm animals moseying along in the background. My dream home, full of animals just chillin. Love ya, Stonnie....you ROCK!

The trick with exercise helped me potty train my 8 week lab. Works perfect, day 3 and no incidents all day.

Let me just say, you definitely have a gift for this. You make it interesting, funny, sensible, and enjoyable. I’ve just inherited a puppy. I haven’t had a “puppy” puppy in decades. I’d forgotten how much work can be involved. Found one of your vids and began watching one after the other. Really good stuff. I’m not dreading the training now. Only on day 5, but I’m really getting into it. The way you explain it takes all the “hardness” out of it. Many thanks. Seeing my pup lay down tired makes me want to lay down tired. Thanks again.

With the way your pack just hung out and behaved, I know you know what you're doing. First video I watched, subscribed.

This man is a GENIUS! I'll have to try this with my future pup.

That Shepard wanted in that crate so bad I thought he was gonna whip out a set of picks and start workin' the lock. lol

I'm actually so pleased to find a video where people are not just going on about how amazing it is to crate train . . .. I'm yet two dogs from a pound in Serbia . . . they've been in cages their whole lives . . . the last thing I want to do is being them home and stick them in a crate ,so it's nice to see other options too

Watched the whole video, but the part I've never seen before is filling the kong with dog food and then making them wait for it. GENIUS!!!

I found your channel today while looking up tips to train a dog that I plan on getting in a few months (a silver lab)... And I'm not 100% sure how it happened but I've now watched at least 20 videos and subscribed!! You are very entertaining to watch and very informative!! You take something that most people dread (people always say "well if you get a dog you know you'll have to train it) and make it seem so simple... I'm excited to get a new puppy for myself and my family and now ,thanks to you, I'm also excited to train that puppy!!

Stonnie your videos are fantastic! So informative, educational, and entertaining! Keep rocking it :)
