My roommate's friend could really use this video... her dog refuses to stop barking when I enter the room, and she just keeps rewarding the behavior by giving treats to try to placate the dog. I've been trying other methods which are less structured, but it hasn't worked with any consistency. As it isn't my dog I'm trying not to overstep my bounds, so having this video to refer her to is very useful!

Im definitely happy seeing these videos! I was literally crying and getting upset with my spouse, we are both feeling the stress! Sleepless, frustrated. Lee just turned 8 weeks, weve had him 1 week. I taught him how to sut today and it felt so good to start training and see Lee do so well ! Ive seen errors we were doing and tonight hes sleeping in his crate for the first time. My spouse is sleeping next to the crate to help Lee feel at ease in a different part of the room and crate. So proud!!!! 😊 Im so glad I found these videos!

[@lubbletelescope]

I have a 9 week old wheaten terrier puppy and your videos have been SO helpful

[@irishduchess7577]

I have both books, watch all your videos, and have learned so much! This benefits my almost 3 year old Chiweenie (who came to me at 7months old thinking all training was a trap) and now 8 month old Sheltie. Having a chronic medical condition with constant pain, and just having had major surgery I have to say fetch has been a life saver! Blu Andre Fleury (yes, we are hard core Golden Knights fans in Las Vegas lol) is a high energy dog and I don’t have the same options to exercise him I would if healthy. I made sure his fetch was solid before my spinal/neck surgery three weeks ago, so he always at least has tons of attention, love, training, and fetch for exercise until I can do tugging and some light chasing again. I’d love to see a video on working with dogs who have had bad experiences with things like baths and nail trimmings. My Chiweenie Leilana (queue Star Wars “It’s a trap!!”) is extremely resistant to even the slow steps toward nail trimming, and Blu has the same reaction towards baths. I hate for them to be stressed at all, and these are obviously must haves for them. Thank you for your training approach towards animals-they deserve unconditional love and respect, period. You and Bree (can’t forget her and all she does!) are a great team and I always look forward to the next video!

[@gailjernigan2482]

I have been struggling with barking by my 9 month old cockapoo, Molly. As many puppies do, she is constantly finding new things as she learns about her world. Of course, before she checks it out, she has to bark at it. She also barks at the boats, kayaks, and other water craft who pass by our home situated on a creek near Charleston, SC. And when she goes out to potty, she barks to clear the area of the wildlife. As you can tell, I have a problem. I am solving this issue by based on Zack’s training techniques, but not one I have seen Zack use for barking. (Since I haven’t watched ALL of his videos, there may be one similar to this.) When she starts barking, I show her I have treats. She immediately tries to figure out what my command will be-- sitting, lying down, etc. Then she gets frustrated because she doesn’t have the treat. Once she starts barking, I use my “quiet” command and hold my finger to my mouth, as if I was going to say, Shhhh.” When she barks, no treats. But if I can get her to stop barking-even for a few seconds, she gets rewarded. We only started this yesterday and have already seen a tremendous improvement. She is not barking nearly as much as she used to. This is probably because it is similar to learning other tricks or learns to stay or leave it. Eventually she gets bored and goes exploring without barking. If she starts barking, I am right by her side with my treats and quiet command. I hope others may benefit from this as it is effective and so similar to other commands she has learned. And, no, I am not a dog trainer except to train my puppy. Thank you, Zack, for not only teaching me how to train my puppy but also to use the same technique for other issues. 😊❤️🐾
