Labrador Retriever Puppy Training Guide - First Week Puppy Training❤️

In this video, we'll give you a Labrador Retriever puppy training guide that you can use for your first day home as well as for the first week home with your Labrador Retriever puppy. We have been seeing so many people here on the channel talking about preparing for their new puppy to come home, and in this video, you will see a few of the exercises you can do as soon as your puppy arrives in your home. These foundational training exercises will be important for teaching your Lab puppy "how to learn", as well as to begin building some value for YOU! These first steps in your Labrador Retriever training will set your puppy up to learn things faster, as well as teaching your puppy that there is lots of value in putting some effort in when it comes to working with you!

@@madduxchapman7853 when dogs are comfortable and confident in their environment, they usually don't bark much. My lab will give out a subtle bark (one time) in a rare occurrence when he sees someone walking towards my front door. I have been blessed.

Best lab puppy training video that I've come across. It's detailed, well-paced with sufficient repetitions. And most importantly it depicts the miss and slips which happen in real life while training the pup. Not like some other videos where the dog responds right from first time through the last without erring. I especially loved the trainer...she has a very personal connect with the puppy and that's clearly visible in her voice modulation and snuggle ❤

[@faruzao]

I have EXACTLY a Labrador Retriever, and I'm watching this because she bites and often misbehaves. She's here for around 4 weeks now, and the only thing I've taught her is to climb up and down the staircase, and to sit. (I've noticed she only sits down when i have food around, but there are times when she does sit even without food! I love her hehe) Now I'm teaching her how to stay put. (it's working a little) Now, I've watched this video while eating, and after i was done, i grabbed treats and did the third trick! First, she starts biting, but i pull away immediately. The third and many other turns, she started licking or sniffing only. Thank you! It's working. I played with her after, and now she's exhausted. I will try the other tricks soon~ Thank you!

[@schlootle]

Just adopted a labrador puppy. He is 3 months old and I named him Oliver, he is absolutely adorable but only after 5 days I feel so overwhelmed and suffering from an extreme case of puppy blues. I get very anxious when I am trying to relax at home but he does nothing but chew on anything and everything be it pillows, the carpet, the floorboards, power wires for computers/TV that I've tried to hide away from him. I am eagerly attempting to train him but man is it a lot of work and coming home after a long day of work I often feel as though I am failing him as an owner and not properly rewarding him and teaching him. When he constantly bites my toes, ankles, hands, etc I try and hold him close and not be rough with him but sometimes I get frustrated when it doesn't seem to have an effect. I walk him about 6 times a day and try to wear him out but when I am home it is non stop and all I want is time for myself. I understand that it is my decision to adopt and completely put my life upside down and I must live by it. I have no intention of returning him, I wouldn't have it in me even if I wanted to, and I do love him. Going from having absolute freedom to feeling like I have none at all has been such a drastic change in my life that it feels overbearing, in fact I actually randomly started crying on the couch when thinking about it. I've told family and friends that the only time I get peace of mind is when I'm at work and away from him. But even after saying all of this he is asleep laying on the couch nestled up next to me and I am greatly comforted by his love towards me. I am all that he has in the world right now, and I feel so terrible when I think that I just need to get away for a few hours or a day when he spends his day looking forward to when I finally step through that door. I wrote this in a time of extreme anxiety over being a brand new puppy owner to vent my own personal feelings about my situation and somewhat as a warning to people looking to become first time puppy owners who may not be entirely prepared for it. Even if you think you are, prepare more. I just know when he matures and calms down just a tiny bit that I will be so happy and grateful that I stuck through it and have a companion who loves me unconditionally and is always happy to see me. That thought alone warms my heart immensely and brings me great joy even if I want to tear my hair out currently lol. I will do my best to give him the best life I can and I hope that all of my venting shows how much I truly care about him. Be responsible everyone and give your pups an extra kiss on the head.

[@washingtonfan2945]

Just seen this comment, I thought you’d get replies on this one but how is it going so far ? Better ?

[@schlootle]

@@washingtonfan2945 He is so much better now, going on 7 months old. At first I had a hard time adapting to being the only parent to a new puppy but routines have been found. He still needs a lot of work but I feel so much better now after the puppy blues wore off. I used to feel like there was nothing I could do and 100% of time was necessary to devote to him, but now I'm actually able to relax and watch a show or something without him absolutely ruining the place. He has recently learned most things have stuffing inside of them however ☠ so now I have to safeguard the couches and pillows

@@schlootle good to know 😎

[@anastasijastanojevic8607]

I am going completly through it as you said, I just randomly start to cry thinking it will never end and I will end up having a desobedient dog… what worries me the most is that he puts so much resistance when I try to discipline him, he reacts to it for 2 days and then nothing… then I get so discouraged… I am glad you are doing much better now with your puppy 😊 it sounds like a dream to me to be honest at this point

I adopted a 6-month black lab/shar pei mix ("Jessie") from a local shelter 4 months ago. She looks just like a lab except she's shar pei size (18" at shoulder and 40 lbs--a mini lab!). She's very smart and VERY active so I've gotten creative in training and exercising to keep her busy. She's learning fast, but still has a problem with not jumping on people. She's a lot better than when I first got her, though training people to not encourage it is harder than training Jessie. :P
