  3. No one ever addresses the most important thing, how many treats do you give a puppy you don't want to upset his digestive system.

  10. Yes, anywhere that's a 'boring' environment for your dog would be best when you're starting out. You can slowly increase the distraction level later.

  11. Great tips, I tried this with my 10 week old golden retriever but she gets distracted by all the butterflies and dandelions. Maybe it would be better to leash train a bit indoors?

  13. You may get the dog to do what you want with this method, but the results are not going to be what you want.

    Learn how to give a proper marker. I hear you almost every time say "good boy, good giving that marker twice. Sometimes you even say "good boy, yes!" those should be two seperate markers. You want your dog to know what "good boy" means, not what "good boy, good boy, yes!" means.

    Mark only once, but you can treat as much as you want.

    Your intentions are good, but terrible delivery.

  16. She needs to know you are the leader. Try doing it after she is done playing. A tired dog learns better than an excited one. Have her lay down next to you for 30 min (dont say a word) if she gets up lay her down again and again until she stays down next to you (she may fall asleep but thats good too). Read a book or watch tv.Do it again every other day for 30 mins in four weeks. after that you can do that 2 times a month.

  17. WOW! Thank you for saying that! I thought I was the only one that noticed it! If they would see my 3 month Mastiff mix puppy and see how rambunctious and hard-headed she is then they'd have something to talk about. You swear my pup gracefully got up, walked, grabbed a treat from my hand, and just sat there. HELL NO! First time I had her on a leash she almost strangled herself. She sat there and didn't budge, I had to get on my knees and beg her to come.

  18. Yes... sorry about that - the machine-generated subtitles are funny, aren't they! The computer had a bit of trouble understanding him :-)
    I did start writing subtitles by hand, but only got part way through... so they eventually turn to gobbledegook, too. Might get around to finishing it eventually.

  19. the subtitles on this arent the best 2:07 'I knid of skype from you' when he said 'so i cant escape from you.

  20. Well done for committing to keeping on trying. If you start in a quiet environment without distractions, and have some treats the your dog likes (and she's hungry!), you should have some success.

  21. Our dog is now 2 I hope she isn't too old to learn this. No matter what I do she ignores me and the first and last time I let her off the lead she shot off and a stranger had to grab her for me :0( not a bad dog just a bad owner. Im going to keep trying tho x

  24. leave your dog with the leash on for a couple of minute, with you grabbing it, so he can get used to.
