   Love your videos!!! My daughter just adopted a rescue dog estimated to be between one and two years old. In some places, the records list him as a rescue and in other places a stray. She takes him out regularly to the same spot for potty breaks and she waits for half hour or more. Often he doesn't go, but often will go within the hour back in the house. He is often holding his pee for long hours despite being taken out regularly. Was considering using a crate when he comes back inside without going and then taking him out again an hour or so later. When he does his business outside, he gets loads of praise and multiple treats. Any suggestions?

   I have a little problem. So my dog is 1 y.o. and he cant stay alone at home. We bought a cave just like one in your video and I left her there one time for 15 min. The dog has barked all the time and even potty in cave. Whenever I gave him a toy he doesnt play with it, he just bark and cry all the time…. What should I do? 😏

   How can you help a dog get used to wanting to go outside that doesn’t want too?

   Your videos are great dude! After 6 years of having my Australian Shepherd (from pup) I needed a refresher course. With a new Australian Cattle Dog pup I'm Currently working on potty/crate training first thing. Glad I'm on the right track. I've already picked up some really great tips and and tricks I didn't know watching some of your other videos. I'm looking forward to the training of this little dude and more of your videos, Keep it up!

   Does anyone have any advice about leaving puppies home alone. I got my puppy a week ago& we are crate training him, he is comfortable enough now to go in and out the crate by himself and goes inside for naps and also sleeps through the night in his crate without any issues, the only problem is when he’s in his crate and he can’t see us. I’ve been trying to get him used to the idea of him being by himself by going out of the room for short amounts of time however yesterday whilst he was napping in his crate I decided that would be a good time to get a bath, but as soon as he realised I was gone he barked and cried none stop for about 40 minutes until I finally gave in. I want him to get to a point that he is not phased by us coming in and out of the room and where he is okay being alone for short amounts of time without braking and crying. Does anyone have any advice & is it a good idea to ignore his barking and crying until he gets used to it by himself? Any advice is appreciated

    The first week with my puppy I just taught her ticks and played with her. Have had her for over 2 months and am now really looking for tips on training because my dog doesn't know how to have a calm state of mind and has a hard time being left alone. I will starting TODAY set a routine and schedule so my puppy knows what to expect so she doesn't get too out of control.

    For puppies, biting should definitely be a thing to focus on since they all do it. Great video

    I'm getting a tiny Shorkie puppy. How do you recommend that I introduce her to my 11yr old (gentle/sweet) Rottweiler mix, that has been raised with little dogs and gets along all my friends dogs.

    I have a question, there's this stray dog that I'm already in love with but he had another "owner" in which he doesn't go to his place anymore (we're neighbors) & I'm going to leave out of state next month & I really want to take him bc I think the dog is already used to my place & when I leave he will be wanting outside all sad waiting for me to come back when in reality I won't, & my question is he is used to the streets if I take him will he be able to get used to the whole new environment & a whole new life? Will he become depressed because he won't be in his old place? He's 8. :'/

    I wish I had found this video a month ago. My new puppy doesn't really have any structure, is it too late to teach him? Have I ruined him?

    We adopted a 3 y/o Staffordshire Terrier 3 days ago. He was undernourished, so is overly interested in food, even though he's being fed extra at this point. We also have another small rescue dog who is 12 y/o. The Staffy wants to go after the smaller dog's food initially and also after he gulps his down and the smaller dog is still eating. How do we correct this behavior?

    I like your no nonsense approach to training the humans. I am saving this to my dog playlist as I will be getting a rescue in the near future and I want to make the transition is as smooth as possible. I'll need more training more than the dog apparently. Tfs 🙂

    I want a highland westie and have for 11 years. I know somone who has had chikens he gave up on them when they died. He then got a male westie puppie. He was the next to go. I feel we need a license in the UK for pet owners. far too many have romantic ideas of owning a pet and then invest no time or effort in training.

    Pets have the same needs as children. They need training support love and plenty of time from you.

    I've just adopted a 5 year old labrador mutt from a shelther and this video has been so helpful.
    My dog is very well behaved but sometimes pees inside, and now I realized that it's due to lack of supervision and adequate potty training. Dogs actually learn so fast, that I'm really impressed, but I relly need to step up my game and keep a sharper look on him while he is in the house.
