Puppy Training at the Shelter - The First Things to Teach a Puppy

Shelter puppies are just like any other puppy. They need training and structure. In this video I'll run you though everything to teach a new puppy. The puppy in this video is about 9-10 weeks old and is totally green.
This puppy learned all the basics during the course of this 10+ minute video - the longer / full version is available on my member's only website

Curious as to why you say to not train a Down from a Sit. Thank you.

[@Kiregom]

Your videos have really helped me with training my dogs and understanding that I needed to provide more structure in order to get a well rounded dog. Many thanks

I've watched a lot of puppy training videos this past week since I just got a 3 month old GSD. This dude is hands down the best content creator. He actually shows novice people like me the steps in how to do it and not just generalization of giving him treats. I appreciate what you do Robert.

[@jerryhsi005]

what is the breed of the puppy in video?

[@djskeedledoo]

Because he is using dog psychology 101. Very rare you can see trainers using this method.

[@nebojsabozanin84]

As a pet dog trainer myself, I have to say that this is one of the best videos I have ever seen on dog training. Everything you said makes perfect sense. Plus, the puppy is adorable and is clearly happy and super motivated! ☺️ I really enjoyed watching you work with him 🤸‍♂️❤️

[@theena]

I've been watching dog training videos on KZbin for the last six months, but you are by far the best.

[@RobertCabralDogs]

Thank you.

"Can only give a dog corrections if he understands what he is doing wrong" !!!! Thank you, so important

[@joshkhumalo5527]

Bro! BRO! Bro! Thank you, thank you, thank you.... you teaching me valuable things I've been doing things wrong.... my puppy was even running away from me.... You've taught me how to use a leash to connect with my puppy, how to use treats to get engagement from my puppy.... it's easy to follow this!!!! Thank you

[@RobertCabralDogs]

Great to hear!

[@Lance_Thorpe_Esq.]

That is such a great point: Hand feed the dog when you 1st introduce yourself.

[@alipetuniashow]

I would never have a dog without your channel, I thank you 🙏

[@Salt9696]

I stumbled upon your videos after Joe Robinet shouted you out in one of his and it couldn’t have come at a better time. I had been planning on getting a German Shepherd puppy for a while now and I’ve been watching your videos in preparation. I gotta tell you, watching your videos just gets me more and more excited to start working with my new pup. I am confident that by employing your training techniques, my GSD will grow to be a well trained dog, and better yet, an amazing companion. I’ll be documenting his progression for a year and would love to share it with you! Thank you for the amazing videos Robert!

[@RobertCabralDogs]

Would love to see that.

[@jomoland]

@7:30 Crate training begins. I’m so glad I found this trainer. Couldn’t have came at a better time with my Bullmastiff pup coming home in 3days! Very informative and great techniques. Thankyou!!

[@miltondejesus2076]

When I compare your commentary to instruction- it’s so much better than most KZbinrs who just talk talk talk with little example and rarely live examples. Great job!!

[@MT-jf1tn]

GREAT VIDEO, you should get the KZbinr of the year on dog training! Thank you!

[@jasonchenoweth5448]

This is a GREAT tool to have for new puppy owners!!! I have a friend that just got a new puppy and wants to start training. We live too far apart for me to help him, so I remembered watching this video and finally found it again. I am going to send this to him, and would recommend to anybody that is learning to train a puppy to watch this and to continue, if you've never trained or had a dog before!! Nothing worse for a dog than having an owner that doesn't know what they are doing. In my honest opinion, I feel that new puppy owners should be REQUIRED to take some kind of training classes, or spend a certain amount of time with an actual dog trainer and dogs. But that's just me. Again, great video and to anybody that is a new dog owner or never had a dog.... Please learn as much as you can about the breed of your dog, so you'll know their temperament, learning abilities, and if that is the type of dog that you are ready for, or can handle. Dog breeds are so different and knowing as much as you can will only help you and your 🐶 in the long run. A trained dog has structure, and a structured 🐕 is a happy dog!

[@meh4164]

When I get a puppy, I am going to become a member and train him/her using your lessons. Just the free training videos here are great, can't imagine the wealth of information I can gain from your member only lessons. Keep up the work. Thank you

[@ashleylitebrite6971]

This is the best instruction I've ever heard for how to keep my dogs with me. They are old now (16 and 10) but we still implement new training increasing their mental stimulation. Thank you Robert. We love your channel!

[@asw567]

You are a pure genius man. Thanks for the great lessons you teach. You made the connection with my dog so much easier. ❤️ Love from Israel 🇮🇱

[@travisbreaux2463]

I just got a GSD pup 2 weeks ago and this will be my 5th dog that I train. He's the second one I started training from 8 weeks of age, and the first I've ever used treats along with praise for reward. I'm really digging your techniques and explanation of why. My father was a K9 officer in the late 60's and most of my training used his teachings and he was against treats but I am seeing a positive in their use and can see how to transition out into tug toys and bumpers along with praise. Thanks for your efforts in putting this quality info and content out there for everyone. "All dogs need training, a well trained dog is a happy dog and a happy owner." -Dad

I’m adopting my first bulldog puppy and I want to avoid my mistakes in training, communicating, and consistency. I was raised on a ranch, so I have a very different upbringing with the “working” dogs. Watched this video and signed up for my first month on your website. Watched the first intro video and I’m excited because for the first time I feel like I have a clear understanding of the JOURNEY that I’m about to endeavor with my companion. Thank you Robert! MJ (Mary Jane) will be here this week and I’ve never been more excited and conscientious about a new journey!
