[@musicbobo603]

Badass video. Learnt a lot. My dog stopped caring about food training, I been feeding him too often and too good so he hasnt been working for food. Opened my eyes. Cheers bro

[@wesleyholder3540]

Great video! So glad you got a microphone too! Makes a huge difference.

[@AmericanStandardK9]

We've had a mic for a while. Just don't always get a chance to use it. We try to use it as much as we can. Thanks for watching

[@beau2021]

Great video! Our 9 week old rottweiler puppy is super food motivated! On a scale from 1 to 10 he's a 12

[@Decades-pl2kl]

Mines too 😅

[@alexandradittmann8588]

Nice one once again! Appreciate your very fruitful collaboration with Will from Fenrir, aka "The Bearded Wonder"! And learned something today I'd never thought possible - and that is that you can BUILD FOOD DRIVE! I always thought, "Oh, those poor peops whose dogs don't have food drive, what a hard and long road to training success that must be...!"

[@zhenzhenkou9406]

Could anyone kindly share the link for the kibble shown in the video? Thanks

[@yourfriendlyfurry1366]

Hello. I like the information you provide. My Corso 16 weeks is no food drive, kind of hard to call attention to training, she walks good on leash, stores socializations, still very nervous and on edge. sometime little growling, corrected on the spot and stops. Have still issues with potty training, if i get distracted pee on floor, i am controlling food and water to manage outside time, so far ok I will love to watch more video like this one, her lack food drive do not help me to training my little Corso. Sit command super, follows good on leash

Hi! I have 2 questions. 1. Why did you choose Royal Canin with it's terrible ingredients (rice and corn at the begging)? 2. How do you train with treats when feeding raw food? For my castrated 10kg female dog we have around 160g of raw food in total and to add treats (even some type of kibble) to that I feel like there won't be any meat to feed.

[@TheMasterDan7]

Thanks!

[@AmericanStandardK9]

You’re welcome!

[@JimmyJohnson7077]

​@@AmericanStandardK9hi mate how often do you suggest feeding a 12 week old pup?

[@AntonioClaudioMichael]

Very informative video does this Work on a Blue Staffordshire Bull that never focuses outside the house trying to get him to loose leash Walk in public he is super energetic is a 10 out of 10 food motivated he also is toy motivated but I never carry the toy during training ? Not going to well

[@caq1578]

I start off training with treats work to praise. First dog xtra lg Shepherd Wolf mix 4 great danes english mastiff 2 Bloodhounds my last two small dogs Collie and a 4 month Old English Sheepdog. I use very small dog bisquits. Never bred never showed.

[@johnwzimmer405]

My dogs always wanted to please me so to train them all I had to do is figure out how to show them what I wanted. Never used treats and I had some highly trained dogs.

[@brunopinto1361]

Thanks for the videos, Garret! I'm from Brazil, and I'm a big fan of you and your work. I intend to start working with dog training soon, and I found in your videos the inspirantion and needed. Thanks a lot! I have one question: you said in the mark 1:55 that you would show how to build up food driving in a dog in the subsequents videos. But I saw the two others of the food series and I didn't find this tip. Could recommend some video who teaches that, please?

[@giigoudon777]

so u train the dogs with the same food as u give them daily as meal ? i have a 4month german shepard i love ur videos very helpfull and shes doing great with me using ur videos all the way from belgium

[@rachelpeters2599]

Thanks for the video! I have a few questions. 1) what do you do if your puppy is hyper food driven? My 5 month old GSD goes nuts for food, to the point where he can not focus on working. 2) we should all be training every day, unfortunately that's not always possible for me. On days where I can only train in the evenings, after dinner, or late morning, should I feed my puppy his regular amount of breakfast and dinner? Thanks!

[@CompleteK9Canada]

He is a beautiful corso!

[@AmericanStandardK9]

That's my boy. I know you're very into your Corsos. I like to think he's the real deal and not watered down with the wrong things. Working line type. Father and grandfather did bitework. From the now defunct Amore Cane Corso out of Georgia. Don't think they breed anymore. Bad business running but nice dogs. Thanks for watching. More to come!

[@CompleteK9Canada]

@@AmericanStandardK9 I was going to ask if he was related to mojo as he looks a lot like him and dogs of that line. Amore did use some rival dogs in their program to get good working lines. I bred the breed almost 20 yrs ago. Now I just like to admire the type of dogs I knew back then😊 I’m glad he is a great dog and living well

[@AmericanStandardK9]

Yes Mojo is grandfather Xander is the father. You know your business. Is Rivale or a spin off of Amores breeding program still around or someone similar to look at? Our boy is getting old.

[@CompleteK9Canada]

@@AmericanStandardK9 I’m sure Carlos ( Rival ) is still around. A few people do have a lot of that blood also now. Italica cane corso does and would have contacts to others. I believe her and Carlos are still close

[@AmericanStandardK9]

@@CompleteK9Canada thank you

[@autumndella8997]

Hello love all your videos. Should I start this with my cane corso at 6 or 8 wks?

[@mitchbarnett09]

Exactly which variant of Royal Canine is it that you use? Have been looking for it to assist us with training our new working line GSD. Thanks for all of your awesome videos!

[@DhruvPrajapatiOfficial]

The kibble shape you are showing is royan cannin for boxer, can this be used for other dog breed as well ?

[@AmericanStandardK9]

Yes, you can, but smaller dogs will have a hard time chewing this larger size of kibble. Also, if you want to give your dog extra-healthy high-value treats, here's what we recommend: www.amazon.com/dp/B0002DGRSY?tag=onamzamericst-20&linkCode=ssc&creativeASIN=B0002DGRSY&asc_item-id=amzn1.ideas.1SSFDPB7S4DLD&ref_=aip_sf_list_spv_ofs_d_asin

[@diegoruiz7600]

I use kibble for my dogs training sessions, but it's supplemented with a raw diet which comes later after training, with no kibble. He eats within a 2 hour window, once a day. His food drive is awesome compared to my family friends dog that's been eating twice a day, too much, with no exercise.

[@sammy2276]

So interesting, so how do you balance, the food you give him (like for example a meal at night or morning), with the training sessions?, or is the traning session its meal time, do you know what I mean?

[@luisherrera5172]

Kibble is good if they are starving. It worked for me for a while. But my dog gets tired of it because he has that every day. What works for me is boiled chicken...sliced them up and refrigerate uncovered. Instant freeze-dried treats.

[@SoniaHernandez-jt2wh]

What food do I use? Turkey, cheese etc..?

[@onewinged6450]

tbh I have the opposite problem with my dog as you with the black shepherd. He's okay with toys (a little pushy/giggly but not unconcentrated), but goes crazy for food. I can barely have a treat in my hand without him whining, jumping, trying out all the tricks he can, winding out of a stay to get to the food, etc. Any advice on having him calm down around food/treats? (he gets kibble every to every other evening, bones/dry skin about once a week and was easy/okay to train without treats to a certain degree)

[@csc8697]

My new pup doesn't care about treats. Meat yes but expensive. I found he loves the kitten kibble! It's cheap & he loves it!

[@Theshavemeister]

How long should a training session last?

[@Als2003-e8c]

Man I wish you were out here in California. I would love to take my 5month GSD. To you! I watch all ur videos.

[@julioc918]

Imaging training your dog with kobe beef :O

[@AmericanStandardK9]

Hahaha. Wagyu A5 sliders

[@naturallycurlyhair4413]

I’ve always trained with food but friends will always ask “Why don’t you have any treats?”.

[@TColeH]

What is the order of commands you teach the dogs? I have a Great Dane puppy that I want to train well to be socialized well around people.

[@ParmeSeanCheeze]

I’m the 1,000th like

[@bettyalford1364]

I leave food out 24-7 and my dogs food drive is still a 10 Ive found leaving thier food out all the time has eliminated so many problems. They have absolutely no food aggression towards each other or our other animals, they only eat when thier hungry and usually just a little at a time eliminating over eating and weight gain, they never even think about begging. No chewing on everything. And in the long run I save money of thier food as they don't eat as much as most dogs do and mine are extremely active and they actually live longer. So on this one thing I'll disagree with you. I'm 67 and have been doing this since my first dog at 12.

[@NinoTheCorso]

No need to make the dog hungry before training. Then he only listens when hungry. Rather, offer kibble w training session, if he’s not engaged, don’t offer another chance to work for food for several hours. Eventually, he’ll appreciate the chance to work, cuz he’ll learn that’s how he eats.

[@AmericanStandardK9]

Very confusing. You're contradicting your own argument. If he's not hungry he won't train to eat so put him up. I agree. Bring him out again when he's ready to work for food...aka hungry. I agree. I don't disagree with what you're saying but the first line doesn't make sense. I just read what you wrote by my wife. She laughed out loud and said..."Exactly! So wait until he's hungry?!" But your first line says no need to make hungry before training. I disagree there. Let him be hungry. Not starving. But motivated for food. 🤔👍🏻🇺🇲

[@NinoTheCorso]

@@AmericanStandardK9 I’m not arguing. Just changing the cause and effect. His hunger should be a result of his choice not to listen, instead of artificially restricting his food.

[@AmericanStandardK9]

@@NinoTheCorso I understand what you're saying now. 100% agreed.

[@BAKED_P0TAT0e-d1]

Question, if he's not engaged and you decide to wait before training them, won't that throw off their earing schedule?

[@alexbetts8291]

My pups gonna be a hungry teachable girl tomorrow 😜🥩

[@noel1376]

chicken hearts are pretty good treats, cheap, very small, tasty and smell great

[@the-d-r]

But they are fatty. And they don't hold very long. Today I have chicken breast for my dogs.

[@AmericanStandardK9]

Raw or cooked?

[@the-d-r]

@@AmericanStandardK9 Normally, my dogs are on a raw diet. I also feed chicken legs raw. But chicken breast I use cooked. I cut it in slices and feed it like a high-value treat.

[@AmericanStandardK9]

@@the-d-r no I meant the chicken hearts

[@the-d-r]

@@AmericanStandardK9 I bake them. Well it is mostly not cooking, I just get the moisture out. On a low temperature.

[@alvarodecastro3133]

Why do you put the treat up to your face before giving it to the dog?

[@SylBeB-wp1gg]

Getting dog to look at his eyes, not just the treat. Treat is associated with eye contact.

[@Theshavemeister]

Why are you touching your hat b4 u give him his treat?

[@the-d-r]

hmm... In my opinion, Royal Canine is one of the worst dog food kibble you can get for your money. For the same price, you can buy much better dog food. My dogs would do everything with a brand named "Frolic", I don't know, if it exists in the USA. But I know that this (Frolic) dog food is full of flavor enhancers.

[@AmericanStandardK9]

Again we only use it for the convenient size of the kibble. It's not particularly cheap but I've had bad experiences (poor quality control) with other brands. Royal Canin has been reliable. We feed our personal dogs a raw diet so I'm so about quality but it's not the easiest or cheapest food to train with raw.

[@Ligorria]

Love the video until you mention Royal Carine Horrible food / threat. Many other high quality Kible/food to use. If your clients hire to train there dogs seek out the best food/threats for them. If cost is a issue for food yiu should not get a dog or cat get a fish instead lol

[@johnalex4391]

I have never ever used food to train my dogs.
