Very good
She is Kova?
Finally got my dog to go inside his crate! Thanks for this lesson! 😀
Do you think this technique could work on an older dog to get her to like
her crate? *cough*Abbey*cough*
She is so cute!!! And watching shaping is fun. I cheered the first time she
went in and laid down. Smart puppy!
brilliant job
Wow, nice one ! I should try to use a clicker too, where can I buy it ?
It’s great to see a new video from you guys! Kova is adorable =o) I love
seeing such happy, thinking dogs figuring out a new behavior; with a smile
on their face. We hope you, Kova, and Dazzle are doing great. Looking
forward to new videos of your awesome dogs~ (we miss seeing Dazzle perform
her tricks, and can’t wait to see more Kova videos too)
I do recommend crates for the car (ideally hard plastic, like Ruff Tough
kennels, and not wire or fabric) just because it is safer for the dogs
should anything happen. And if they like to be together, you could
certainly get a LARGE crate and let them share it. 🙂 That said, my own
dogs do ride loose sometimes, too.
WOW!!! This pup is going to be a super learner!!!! Great job training her!
She looks like she’s having TONS of fun!!
You are brilliant! My border collie (Andi) and I watch you and Dazzle all
the time. Thanks for this lesson!
Absolutely! You can use this same technique with any breed of any age.
It’ll also work with any species (if you wanted to teach a pet cat or mouse
to do this, for example). 🙂
What a smart puppy! When you have two adult dogs do you recommend getting
them crates for in the car instead of just sitting in the boot of the car
together?
Thanks! As the school term comes to a close I finally have more time to
make some videos with all of the footage I have collected. 🙂
Excellent question! I am using her dog food. So, this session used the
lunch that she would have eaten anyway, except I used it for training
instead of giving it to her in a bowl. All of this puppy’s meals were given
in the form of training like this, so she learned a lot and never got fat
or sick from treats. 🙂
This was great! I smiled the whole time I was watching, gotta love fun
training sessions 🙂
Amazing! Seems like so many treats though. What do you use? How does a li’l
puppy like that not get full?
You can buy clickers online or at almost any pet store. They usually cost
1-2 dollars.
any advice on helping a pup who will go into crate on cue but will
whine/cry once the door is shut and locked? I don’t want to do the ignore
method because while house breaking I want the pup to get my attention when
he has to go. We are clicker training.
