Update on Ace - I have gotten him involved in playing some of the games kzbin.infoUgkx1_veP7CApJK_GWy_TczaMciuG64PqJeU and I can see a difference in his confidence already! My other dog played along and he became intrigued - now its a daily part of our routine - about 3 times a day we do the shell game and the muffin tin game. I am so grateful for coming upon your training techniques!

[@risingabovetheoccasion]

One of the most thorough and no bullshit trainers I've seen. No excessive jargon or unnecessary shit. Straight practical training advice. Love it

[@thedoggieinnlisaannestella3478]

ABSLOLUTELY

[@vy4648]

I watched hundreds of dog training videos and most are just selling their services. But this one is teaching you real stuff. Two thumbs up.

[@laurenml1222]

Stonnie is the real deal!

[@WiZ111112]

@larry andrews he rations their food. 50% in meals, the other 50% as treat

[@WiZ111112]

@larry andrews why's that?

[@davidmoneyovereverything7214]

larry andrews you’re a jackass lol

[@scopeworth7781]

larry andrews stfu dumbass

[@olk3]

I took Stonnie’s online class two years ago, and learned so much, even after decades of dog ownership. People regularly comment on how well-behaved my dog is. We’ve since added a puppy, who has learned everything from the first dog, with very little effort on my part. Stonnie is a dog genius. So glad I found him.

[@bryanb.386]

If a dog doesn't come out of a litter saying oh where's Stonnie I want to pay attention to him, we call that dog a cat.

[@GypsyGirl317]

Lol 😂 👍🏾 🙆🏻‍♀️

[@omgods1]

Cats are very food motivated

[@miathemalinoisgsdx1320]

I dont need anyone to tell me how smart, how obedient, how friendly, how confident, how non reactive, stable, focused and talented my dog is. If you've seen any of her pup videos on KZbin you will know what I mean. I have taught her most of the stuff she does my self with some help as a pup/pupster from a local working dog trainer. But hand on heart, watching all of Stonnies pup vids before we even got her is what cast the solid foundations for the the solid dog she grew into.

[@nataliecampos1732]

I just watched a video of her pulling you on your Snowboard! WOAH DUDE!!!! I LOVE IT!

[@88korky]

Some people just want the world to be a better place. Stonnie is one of those people.

[@baconmakinmayor]

Shhhhiet. This man even makes ME wanna be a good dog

Anybody else waiting for the "Common Sense Kid Training" series?!

[@LibellulaGlass]

Please don't take these vids down, my puppy arrives in two days, I am learning a lot, they are brilliant.

[@owl5927]

My puppy arrives in 1-2 years. When I buy a house. Yes please leave these vids up.

[@djjuarez5679]

Stonnie, I love how genuine you are! ❤️ I’ve been a new subscriber and student of yours for only 3wks and our newly adopted 7mo old German Shepard has come a long way because of your videos. Thank you so much for sharing! ❤️ from Colorado! 😎✌🏽🐶❤️🙏🏾

[@justindg21]

Just found you and hey I appreciate that.

[@stannicholson9622]

Seven years ago and still the best darn advice right there

[@thedoggieinnlisaannestella3478]

Gold mine of information as always Thank you Stonnie!

[@fredericrike5974]

Many young parents would do well to take some of this as "advice in kind". Small children respond to the same kinds of things- and when you scream at them they understand about as little as puppies do!

[@Pupsaremyheart101]

Works with horses too! “Make good choices”.

[@chrislandaverdedf]

Man! this channel is so near to perfection. Excellent job Mr.

[@chrislandaverdedf]

Kudos from Mexico. Looking forward to supporting your channel by being a faithful follower and clicking on the Ads.

[@StonnieDennis]

Thanks so much, don't worry about clicking on the ads. KZbin isn't really paying anything right now, anyway. I just accepted the advertising, because without it KZbin doesn't put one's videos into the search algorithms or whatever. Enjoy!

[@chrislandaverdedf]

Well, whatever it takes for your content to be out there and be seen by the world. We need stuff like this. Your whole philosophy can be applied to so many things it goes beyond dog training. Quick question: what would you say is the earliest you can effectively begin to train a puppy?

[@StonnieDennis]

[@SylvieGrimalkin]

I have a blue cattle dog cross kelpie puppy that I got last Saturday and have been having problems with teething and toilet training. I've tried all other techniques including the Cesar Milan ones. I've been doing this technique for only 24 hours and she's a new dog. Thank you so much! She's no longer chewing us and she hasn't had an accident inside so far. She's not jumping or even being hyper. You are amazing.

[@jgirl47]

I've watched hundreds and hundreds of training videos. None like yours! You really know how to capture your audience. Very informative and fun to watch. Steve Irwin of dogs!

[@metallhak]

@larry andrews stop being a dick and replying to years old comments bashing people also a person never stops learning be it after 10 or 1000 videos

[@christopherhamilton8475]

Stonnie is a great communicator.

[@stellarlunar87]

"Ah what a fine animal!" Gonna start saying that to my puppy

[@knots9119]

This is such a needed video, we're on week 3 with our 6 month rescue, pitbull mutt and he's been doing pretty well. A lot of play nipping and crazy eyes when being pet, will start being stricter with his diet (2.5 cups a day) and rewarding him with treats when he's calm. Thank you!

[@frustratedmajority851]

You just got a subscriber for being knowledgeable and having an awesome personality

[@MattMascolo.]

Stonnie Dennis is top notch. These methods worked for my Corgi!

[@oceanhaven6443]

Thank you Stonnie!!! Your videos are great. My family and I are getting a lab puppy in about a month. We sit down together each night and watch a couple videos together. The kids always look forward to it. You make training look fun and manageable. Can't wait to watch more videos and for our puppy to arrive. You rock!!.

[@piyushsopory5817]

Best dog channel so far

[@bradbernst1113]

I have a 7 week old Golden and these videos came just in time for us. Thanks for the education !

[@blkbeauti05]

Puppy comes home 11.14.20. I cannot tell you how helpful your videos are. Thank you so much Stonnie.

[@lizoidal]

Stonnie, I think this series is fabulous! We are getting our dutch shepherd puppy in Feb 2018, and I'm so glad I found these. I've trained a few dogs, but it's been a very long time, and I like so many of your methods so much better than what I used. I just became a new subscriber, THANK YOU SO MUCH!

[@stephensolomon2050]

I want to add, Stonie, that your training method seems like so much more fun than most of the other methods we see on KZbin, both for the owner and the dog.

[@kireenagulen4099]

I’ve seen loads of dog training videos over the past years since getting my GSP 8 yrs ago but this is bar far the best. You are a fabulous trainer. We will be getting a puppy in the next few months and this is helping re,ind me how to train my new puppy. Thank you.

[@darnellcaballes]

I need stony as my life coach... lol

[@kidjetrecon7153]

Awesome teaching on calm, I used this on my last rescue, it works so well that a dog that almost was put down ended up being one of the best companion dogs in the world. He’s now with a older couple.

[@malcoppock4255]

Truly amazing, the tail wag was amazing.

[@elfreelancer1]

[@RuffMuttsCooperative]

Stonnie is a great trainer for dogs & humans. I am loving these videos!

[@swangodesigns]

Hey Stonnie! Great work you are doing, i wanted to say thank you so much for your videos and the knowledge you are sharing with everyone!!

[@nicoledells7150]

This is exactly what I needed! I pick up my 7 week old GSD in 5 days.

[@drewb5809]

Still cant say how much I love all your vids. Glad you seem to have stayed yourself over the years since these videos!

[@stephanieholland4469]

You are soooo awesome! Thanks for all of your videos! You make dog training feel so much less complicated than other videos and advice.

[@glremw]

Absolutely brilliant I love your ideas,the pup is so happy!

[@thedogfatherdogtraining3591]

10 People chose thumbs down... WHY??? This is brilliant stuff folks, brilliant stuff!

[@StonnieDennis]

Haters...lol...I'm getting ready to take this series down, folks better watch while they can...

[@catherineeaves2990]

Stonnie Dennis Why take them down?

[@jesqsica]

late reply but please don't take these down!!

[@jaggedwing]

Stonnie Dennis I just found your videos. Great stuff. I'm bringing a puppy home at the end of December and need these videos. Thanks for keeping them available.

[@amandageyer6716]

Please don't take these down!!! We need them!!!!!!

[@Als_Attic989]

@larry andrews you're

[@tamivega6225]

I love me some Uncle Stonnie! The ONLY dog trainer I'd like to hangout with. Maybe even have over for lunch! A man of good common sense... a product of good character. If he was on the west coast I'd send every new pack member to him!

[@michaelgossett1415]

Mr. Stonnie, Thank you for posting an interesting informative video. My thinking has been adjusted on some training methods. It is just plain common sense or logic.

[@kriskeene3910]

Appreciate your videos Stonnie! We have applied your methods to our GSP pup and it has been great. We even love watching your videos as a family, good ole positive American guy. My daughter loves to day “Oh what a fine animal” god bless brother

[@padsaroay]

I wanna be as chilled as the dog in the back

[@HorseExpression]

Oml he's HILARIOUS!!! And that Box pup is adorable 😍

[@davidt.2726]

Thanks for the tips. Our family got a 6 week old black lab puppy, and these videos are really helping with her training!

[@ChefNutter]

The APBT is the best breed in my book. Sniper look well breed and you Sir are a good teacher.

[@joharrison8891]

I am going to get my puppy in a couple days and your video's have helped me prepare a bunch!!

[@bingothesmoothcollie7898]

Four years later... wow stellar job. Guess I'm officially an Uncle Stonnie fan now.

[@katelyn.grace._]

I’ve been watching your videos for a couple months before I️ got my puppy and I️ originally found you because you trained malinois. (Which is the breed of my new puppy) I️ find I️ learn from your videos very well! Thankyou

[@moonbot7613]

I just adopted a mixed cattle dog today. Instant subscriber and thank you so much for all this content.

[@RatdogDRB]

Good nugget for teaching a puppy. Thanks.

[@Dnb11289]

I get my male charcoal lab (Barrett) in six days. I will be watching all of your videos over and over and I will send videos on his progress. Your videos should not be free I'd honestly spend money just because all the knowledge you have and share, it is far more detailed than any other video on the internet. Keep it up and thanks for sharing!

[@TeslaNick2]

This is great advice. I also see dog training as one continuous fluid process.

[@kidjetrecon7153]

You sir are my light in my day, getting a lab pup Saturday, I’ve always used Kohler training, I’m actually being taught something on every video. I grew up on the yank and pull method. Kohler had some awesome training in his day we have new and advanced Dennis 2021 😂. Born natural We still don’t have name , it’s a Grey Lab Silver free doesn’t matter need name at a loss.

[@robgronbeck8862]

Freaking love you Stonnie Dennis!! Helped me so much.. love your attitude, energy and coaxing style and philosophy.

[@seriouslyson6559]

I must have watched this video a dozen times. I am picking up every thing your throwing down. The only problem with this video is when it comes up in my feed I'll have to watch it again. Kind of like when Rocky or Jaws is on TV. I've seen it a hundred times but I always get stuck watching it again. Thank you Sir for the great content.

[@robbonj]

I am loving your videos Stonnie and I am seeking out small challenges for my 9 week old Doberman. Thank you for putting up such great information for us all to see.

[@mayaportland8805]

I'm loving this teaching video.

[@skeletonrose7188]

I love your style ! Common sense

[@PrePrayerdLife]

I'm an up and coming dog trainer in NC and you sir have become my online mentor! I've been a subscriber for about a year now. Great content!

[@andrewktn134]

Same here, where in nc ?

[@PrePrayerdLife]

Winston-Salem is where I am...

[@williamsargent690]

Very good videos Stonnie. I am bringing my black lab pup home Christmas morning. I haven't trained a dog in 30 years. Having searched for a good training series for several weeks I was overjoyed to find yours. I know I need training as much as she does. I will try to take some poor videos with my phone as we progress. Thank you for your professionalism and obvious love of animals.

[@user19980lqz]

i have checked many dog training videos, but you are the best, thanks

[@bigfishe76e]

Thank you so much for the videos. I'm picking out a Chocolate Lab pup tomorrow and I can't wait to get started with your positive way of dog/people training.

[@kidjetrecon7153]

bigfishe76e It truly works I harassed old Stoney before but I'm telling you this his techniques work beautifully.

[@jeffdaugherty8339]

Thanks for this video! I just picked up my 10 week old Weimaraner pup & have been watching training videos for the last month. I love your way of training!! Subscribed

[@StonnieDennis]

Good luck!

[@writergrrl11]

First two minutes are the exact same training Dr. Ian Dunbar suggests! I love him and I love seeing the same philosophy being touted elsewhere!

[@ingrid7966]

Thank you so much for your videos. They really help me preparing for getting my lab puppy!

[@jackieperks8414]

I think you're absolutely brilliant and so thankful for your FREE videos!! I love your methods and can't wait to employ them when our new puppy arrives in two weeks. The hard work we do will pay off big time! I love the way you interact with the dogs and you can SEE that your methods are working....and working immediately!! THANKS again! :-)

[@StonnieDennis]

Good luck.

[@jackieperks8414]

Thank you Stonnie! Well, we have him now and he is 13 weeks today! He is a working line GSD and we named him Baron "Bear" for short. We are using your positive training methods with great success!! He is a super smart boy and by the time he was 10 weeks, already knew sit, down, come, stay, fetch and more. He is a very good citizen at meal time when I tell him to sit/stay and last to receive his meal in a home with another older dog and 2 cats. I think you do a great service by posting these videos and very, very appreciated!!! Thanks again! ~Jackie

[@pest2pet]

I Include this video for more than just puppy clients. Thank-You so much!

[@explaincauseidontgetit3294]

Hahaha, Uncle Stonnie it is! I'm counting the days on 2 hands now before I pick up my pup, Gatlin Gunner, Aussie Shepherd. CANT WAIT! Thank you for posting. My time until then, I'll be catching up on all your vids!

[@jerryezell8179]

As a breeder, I appreciate your honest, direct approach and I enjoy sharing and recommending your videos. Thanks so much! btw: I searched for you on Facebook and wasn't able to find you. Awesome dogs!

[@Podcastforthewin]

Sniper was so warn out after going up some stairs lol he’s gonna make a great dad one day

[@jazzyjayhog]

Sir Dennis! Hands down awesome... Straight shooter no bs. his 15 min vid would probably be a 1 and half hr vid by others on the web!!!!!!

[@tylergriger007]

i appreciate this video stonnie.

[@rhdtv2002]

Ready to go to bed and decide to watch this video - can't sleep now cause this was very entertaining

[@ChristmustbeKingoverallnations]

Thank you for these videos. Really helps me to simplify the process. Fantastic.

[@aleahmccraney7606]

An amazing way to train, I'm really good with dogs and my last dog I trained to sit, lay down and come with both hand and voice commands and as he got older I petted him and praised him instead of giving him treats, but I will definitely use this method of training for my new puppy. I love the idea of using his food rations I didn't think of that I usually train in multiple short sessions cause I dont want my puppy getting sick from treats and it is better for puppies attention spans.

[@Stringman1950]

Really good and useful. Thanks.

[@nexo567]

brilliant, training me and the pup. much appreciation

[@KHeath-hb8gk]

[@politicalsheepdog]

Makes sense. I'll try this with my Lab/Chow mix pups. I do the praise thing for actions already, time to work on the attention stuff.

[@TheMJGChannel]

Thank you for these videos! I am getting a male chocolate Labrador puppy April 28th. I think I’m going to name him Hershey. I am very excited! We lost our dog Rolo (Hershey made the candy Rolo so that’s why I am going to name him Hershey), chocolate lab male, on Sunday. He died of a twisted stomach we believe, only lived to 3 years and 6 months. I miss him so much. But I know this puppy will bring joy. I didn’t train Rolo all that well, but I really think I can train this puppy with your videos! Thanks again.
