How to Train 3 Tricks I’ve NEVER Taught to a Dog Before!

[@johnberkemeier3741]

As much as I wish I had sent my dog to Brandon for training before bringing him home kzbin.infoUgkx1_veP7CApJK_GWy_TczaMciuG64PqJeU I am so grateful for this down-to-earth, practical guide. His training techniques and tips really work. Thank you as well for dedicating your life's work to rescue dogs, and to rescuing those of us who want the very best for our 4-legged family members.

[@snowballs442]

I was laughing too hard...both of you deserve a treat.

[@snowballs442]

Zak...I am not sure that you know this or not but we go back some time. I know you back when you worked at PS and you had four dogs. You trained me to train my corgis. I had two of them and you showed me the right way to train them. All of these years I have been keeping up with you. You have been a great inspiration to all lf us. Thanks

[@peytonmarett7301]

when he was kicking 💀💀😂

[@chrislagas2240]

Great video! This reminds me of a trick I learned from " Forward Fast Dog Training by Kelly Ferris "... If you want to get a dog to stop jumping up on people you quick turn your back on the dog when they jump and leave through the door. When dog finally stops jumping you give him a treat. Lot's of other tricks there.

[@pixie0098]

I have already asked this on a previous video but I am going to ask again Can you do a video where you vlog your day with inertia, all your training sessions and time lapses of her sitting in her crate also her going into the garden and daily walks. I would love to see hours of raw footage of inertia that I could skip though and learn from.

[@tiffanywairimukariuki2090]

Me too

[@sunshinethegoldenpup6904]

Cool idea love it!

[@allysatouchstone1792]

Same!!!

[@infinitusfinitus]

Hahaha I tried teaching the conga to my pup and she just looked at me like, "are you kidding?" We managed it by the end of the session though. Collies are so smart!

[@sunshinethegoldenpup6904]

Cool!

[@danarzechula3769]

Tried to teach my pittie to bring his toy back to me he just stared at me like, " Do I look like a retriever to you?" Hahaha

[@macielenhart8021]

I taught my australian shepherd Murphy a trick called “report” I tell her to stay then I walk away and stand there (facing away from her) with my legs spread apart a bit and say “report!” then she runs and sits underneath me! It would be so cool if you taught this to inertia too!

[@emmamemma4162]

I do a similar thing with my dog; she waits while I walk in front of her, then I spread my legs (also facing away) and say "between". She runs in between my legs (standing position) and usually we finish it off with a bow.

[@infinitusfinitus]

Hahaha me and my border collie do this, we call it 'tween

[@FunkiFungi42]

This is a great idea! I'm going to have to work on this with my puppy! 😁

[@emmamemma4162]

@@FunkiFungi42 Getting them to run in between your feet is really easy with a piece of food, but teaching them to wait so you can get in front takes some practice.

[@cassandraloki2846]

I taught it to my golden! Named the trick "Tucker"

[@hob_6801]

Since I’ve found your channel you’ve helped me teach my dog a bunch of tricks I thought she couldn’t do

[@wendyarthur3941]

That was so much fun to watch! Inertia is just too adorable for words :). I have learned so much from watching your channel and am helping my daughter train her dog and I love doing it :). Thanks for all your hard work and taking us all through all the steps to become good trainers for our own dogs :)

[@rubychuaqui2023]

You are the first trainer I truly agree with! I've read soooo many books but your books and vids are actually the most helpful!! Will you please do a vid on how to manage a prey drive!

[@lacybeavers3809]

You should have a segment on teaching her or Indy to use the sound boards. I’m not sure what they are actually called but it’s so neat. I would love to teach mine but I’m not really sure how to approach that. Both my pups are crazy crazy smart and training them to do anything is so so easy but I cannot get them use to pushing buttons that actually mean what they want.

[@psandylay1628]

Ive never done this before but you could try starting with easy association. First teach your dog to press the button and in association with that let them out or give them a treat (based on what the button says). Slowly increase the number and complexity of the buttons and i think you could be able to do it

[@lacybeavers3809]

They already have pushing the buttons down. They just don’t get the this button means this thing. I think I may need to find one that has my voice instead of a standard voice because is somebody other than me says anything that is remotely exciting to them they don’t do anything but if I say it they go absolutely nuts.

[@psandylay1628]

@@lacybeavers3809 i feel like you should spend more time working on what the button means. For ex the first few days only have one that says "i wanna go out" or something like that and after put one that is a little different like "im hungry" and walk your way up from there. I dont think that the dogs actually listen to the words, in my opinion they are just like "if i click that button i go out, if i click the other one i get food"

[@faith6857]

Thank you Zak and Bree for all your lovely videos! I am 19 years old and am getting my Texas Heeler (Blue Heeler/Australian Shepherd hybrid) puppy in two days and I can hardly wait to use all my knowledge from your teaching on him! His name is Braveheart and he is a darling fluffy baby. I watch multiple videos of yours every night, and sometimes during the day. Sometimes I even choose them over watching a movie with my sister. She loves your videos too. :) May God bless you two, and precious Inertia as well.

[@angelapiccolella1491]

As a fellow dog trainer, I find your videos so inspiring. I find that many dogs are having a hard time with all of the Corona turmoil in our lives.

[@TheJakeryan789]

Thank you for your videos. Literally, I watch them just because they are so positive. Rather than watch news or other negative things on KZbin I watch Zac George, lol. We do have a new dog, so it helps for sure, but your videos help me feel happy too! ♥️ Thank you for that!

[@sayantika272]

I love your videos Zak! You are my favourite youtuber!

[@EmiliaChape]

I use "go investigate" to let my pup know he can go sniff around or look. He's always so curious to see whats inside a box or even inside the tub. So I have this cue bc it makes it fun, like we're out exploring the world. And he loves it. It allows him to do what he wants to do, which is investigate, and I know he's doing it under my supervision. Rather than him going looking for things inside boxes or things like that on his own.

[@assiamekhalfa2313]

i was so tired of our lilly biting us all the time and then i used a few tips i learned from the MyDogTraining7.blogspot.com -- videos. it was like night and day; worked so well

[@margaretyoung.1436]

Keep going teach your pup twirl to the left / right. Which can be handy later on during leash walking when you want to change direction. Tricks don't need to be useful. They can be a good fun way to build a firm bond between you and your pup x

[@Thatclimbingirl]

Zak can you please make a video on why you think balanced training is bad/why you have Never told Interia No. We use balanced training with our two dogs and we will use it with our puppy that we are getting in a week. Our corrections are vocal we also use body pressure and pop the leash. Rewards are food, toys(if the particular dog likes them.) and prais. Balanced training is quicker and teaches a dog boundaries a lot faster, the dog also learns that misbehaving leads to consequences. I know a lot of people are against it, but the results speak for themselves. By the time our cocker spaniel, miniature poodle mix was a year old he was off lead in all safe settings had good leash manners. Without balanced training our dog would take advantage of us(we followed zaks advice in the beginning it was a disaster). He had no boundaries, no manners, as soon as we started using vocal corrections he changed into a completely different dog for the better.

[@johnmimist]

I’d love to know where you got the paintings done!!!! 😁

Inertia in ten years: "Subscribe to my channel" literally speaking English!! Zak in 20 years: My dog taught me another language.

[@Elentarien]

lol That was fun. Ridiculous tricks are fun. Useless, but. . .they enjoy learning things, and I think the time spent with them is always good. It's great to see Inertia picking up on things so quickly. I also see things I need to work on with my girl. She's STILL having trouble giving up things in her mouth. Leave it is 'ok', but not great if she actually GETS it. (I did screw this up when she was little and we created a bit of a monster there. It's been a VERY long road back.) Food is an absolute forget it. If she gets it, its gone. I might try a 'fun' thing like this just to work on things with her. (Though not with food to start. :P)

[@emmamemma4162]

With a really tiny dog you can have them put their front paws on your left foot and their back paws on your right foot. The other way round is fine, too. Once they are good at standing on your feet, start moving your toes and slightly tilting your feet. Then start shuffling forward until you are (slowly and carefully) walking, with your dog on your feet.

[@infinitusfinitus]

You could have them wrap both paws around one of your legs and grip it.

[@swaminehe4175]

[@kaylamckissack]

Hello! So I just recently got a puppy, and we have stairs in my house. as of now he is completely terrified of them. Of course right now I would like for him to be with me whenever possible to keep an eye on him so it’s good he can’t wander too awfully far, but eventually he will have that freedom and will need to go up stairs. He isn’t too excited about the treats when I’ve done our little “lessons” I just don’t know how to go about it

[@Bruce_S763]

If you have been having success teaching him other commands/tricks, then it may only be a matter of timing. If he’ll hold something for 1/2 a second, then reward for a 1 second hold. Slowly try to increase the time. Keep sessions short and try to end on successes. Aussies are brilliant. Believe in him and yourself and be patient. It is possible he is uncomfortable having some textures in his mouth. Maybe there are a few toys he can hold to generalize the command? Please let us know your progress, and what works for you!
