I'm worried that my Belgian Malinois teathing on mulch/ wood chips is gonna cause splinters or he's gonna swallow them. Should I be concerned or is that normal?

Hi can you tell me the breed of the dog you are wow out at the 10:00 min mark Thanks

[@lisasternenkind6467]

I believe my current 18 week old puppy has an extremely painful teething phase. I have never had a puppy as mouthy and bity as my current Rottweiler puppy. My puppy also picks up everything, especially rocks and used paper tissues. 😮 I plan to ask the veterinary about some ointment for my puppy's jaws, as I don't want him to suffer so much. My puppy also pulls back his ears in pain constantly since about a week. My puppy was very oral from the beginning, but now he only is calm enough to lick on a few occasions. I can touch him everywhere, he doesn't care if I lift him up or look in his mouth or touch him vigorously. Yet since a week, he seems to be upset out of nowhere and then bites everything, also my hands and my clothes. I am alone with my puppy 24/7 and so he always has my attention and closeness. He Wil be trained to be my certified PTSD service dog, so it's normal that we are together the whole time. I do crate training with him every day, but other than that he always lies next to me or accompanies me. Most dog trainers online talk about positive reinforcement only and concerning biting, they say that the dog needs distraction with treats when biting. I must say that this all is bullshit. If a dog bites because his jaws hurt, then distraction with treats is total nonsense. If a dog bites because it's fun to do so, then the normal reaction wouldn't be to hand out treats, but show him that biting is not OK. In such situations I turn away like any dog would do too. And if the puppy does it again, I growl and say a SOLID and SINCERE "NO!" I only found your channel recently and I do like your natural style of training your dogs. Cheers from Germany! 🎉 🍻

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!

Hi! Thank you for the amazing advice, I’m a huge fan of your training style! My English pointer pup has been with me for 10 days now, she’s just over 11 weeks old and a real biter. I’ve been using your second strategy so far and it has definitely made an improvement. She absolutely has a bio-rhythm and I can tell it’s when she has pent up energy that she’s at her most bitey. My problem is giving her enough exercise because she hasn’t had her second and third parvo shots yet and we had an outbreak in December where I live. I have a fairly large yard with slopes, steps, terraces and a mix of lawn and wilder areas of shrubs for her to explore. I try to let her run along with me up and down and around but I’m not sure that’s enough? I use ALL her kibble to train, she’s sitting, targeting and laying down already... and it’s definitely getting there, just very slowly.

A lot of people feel that clicker training is gimmicky, but since starting to work with it I've seen just how helpful it can be to be able to pinpoint moments with so much precision.

@Steven Faulds believe me I did research on this breed to a long time before we got her. She’ll be 2 years this September. Has been an excellent dog. Completely nonaggressved. Very good with our grandchildren. Loyal, excellent guard dog, let’s us know immediately if something is going on with our property. We can take her out in public and she’s not aggressive with strangers, she is aloof with them, but that’s the breed. I agree everyone should research the breed they are considering, might be less in shelters if they did. Sorry u passed on the giant. They aren’t for first time dog owners. You must be In control that’s for sure, just show love with that firmness and they’ll do anything for you. One of the best dogs we have ever owned!

[@ryanjsgrandma2009]

@Steven Faulds it breaks my heart also to see dogs given up to shelters. People stop us all the time asking us about this dog. You don’t see them very often and folks are very curious. I use that time to help educate them about the breed, like you I can’t stand to see people buy these dogs without knowing what their doing. I’ve wanted one for years and after all this time I decided I was ready for one, it wasn’t on a whim. We have a small farm and she gets plenty of exercise, which is the one thing I can say is essential with this dog. Not an apartment dog! Even though you don’t have one, you can also help to educate people on giants because of ur research. Been nice chatting with you. This is one giant who will never be in a shelter, she has a home for life!

We have a 4 month old Turkish Kangal who is going through the puppy biting phase. I have just seen your video on puppy biting and I like your style. I will give your puppy biting techniques a go because the dog is big and strong and I love to play rough but after 5 minutes the dog is just getting started and I need to stop to tend to my wounds. Due to Covid-19 lock down here in Australia I have not been able to visit a trainer so I have been looking online for advice. Other dog training videos have made me feel like I was encouraging bad behavior in the dog so I stopped the rough play. Thank you for your video as I will enjoy being a "caveman" and start playing rough with my dog again.

[@Texas240]

10:35 I'm on day 2 with an 8 month old border collie mix picked up as a stray. Trying the pre biting exercise didn't help. We walked. We jogged. We did some light obedience training. She tired. I was tired. After a good drink, she laid down in her spot and was just restless. I thought I'd give her some long slow petting to settle her. She starts trying to nip my hand. She gets in this state of being tired after exercise and having earned good praise for doing some work but wanting to both rest and keep playing (or working) at the same time.

[@StonnieDennis]

On day two? You need to adjust your timeline expectations out a bit.

@@StonnieDennis hey, thanks for the reply. I wasn't saying I expected her to be perfect already. I was more thinking out loud of where we're at. She's super smart. So, more than expecting to sort her out immediately, my concern is that she'll train me into allowing some bad habits if I'm not careful! So, watching a lot of vids since my previous dog passed away over 10 years ago (20 year old sheltie).

Thanks so much for the info. I would have liked to see a dog who actually was biting inappropriately and how you reacted. I know it is difficult to get that with so many well trained dogs! Far too many breeders are selling puppies before they should be taken away from their mother, they either do not care or don't know that the very best puppies are those who have been brought up by their mom until at least 10 weeks old and preferably 12 weeks. Six weeks is FAR too young to remove a dog from his mom, he hasn't learned much of anything by then! He is still like a baby who doesn't have the physical ability to get into trouble so mom has not had to correct him!

You made me howl with laughter at some of the things you said "how can you get mad at something with no thumbs" "don't spray yourself down with cancer" (so true) but in seriousness you taught me a lot about why my 11 week old Rottweiler is biting. She'S just excited or experiencing life in the only way she can when she "DOESN'T HAVE THUMBS" Although I was told never to do the "ALPHA DOG" pinning as it's not something they do in the wild. However, you said it is. I'm a little confused, can you explain please? thank you.

[@marisakelly7253]

Mostly I’ve heard not to use the alpha roll because a really messed up or fearful dog might bite you in the face if you get too aggressive and close when it’s riled. I have seen my adult dogs handle an annoying “teen” dog by grabbing it by the scruff of the neck and dragging it around the yard. At first I was afraid the younger dog would get hurt, but it never did. It was so funny to see, and quite predictable if you had time to watch the behavior patterns. So adult dogs definitely use physical force/intimidation when younger ones don’t take gentle corrections seriously.

[@simplulo]

This video was about addressing inappropriate biting in puppies, but it seemed a metaphor for addressing anti-social behavior in human children. Stonnie was amusingly discreet in talking about the naivety and limitations of modern dog owners (his customers), like modern parents. His method seems universal: 1. Systemic (proper environment, recognize biorhythms, head off problems with exercise) 2. Socialization (with well-behaved peers and seniors) 3. Positive feedback (with proactive training) 4. Negative feedback (for "behavior that is dangerous, destructive, or rude") 5. Self-respect (not letting yourself be manipulated) +Save the sriracha for yourself

[@StonnieDennis]

You are very astute, my friend...

[@tidepodmusical4173]

Yay! I love these videos; they’re so informative. My puppy is 2 1/2 months old. He’s beautiful most of the time, but he’s also very stubborn. Sometimes when I tell him no, he “talks back” and bites (more like chomps) the air. Today, he was really close to my face (I was sitting on the floor) when he did it. I don’t know what to do when this happens, and I dint want this problem to progress.

You can also try yelping when this occurs. If you use the dogs language to tell him he’s biting too hard, he’ll catch on. When my dog chomps too hard on my ears I yelped. Now he knows when we’re wrestling that my ears are sensitive. So are his when I bite them!

[@tidepodmusical4173]

My very small dog and I have always had play times that involve teeth on skin, I taught her from when I got her that only light tooth pressure was OK. If she gets overexcited and puts more pressure on my skin, I say GENTLE and she knows that this is the word to relax her “bite”. She has never broken skin. She is very small though, I don’t know if it would work with a big dog. She caught on to this really quickly.

first off how well socialised was your dog in early puppyhood? Is his lunging out of fear or out of intent to do damage?

[@FarmerFpv]

First off the guy above me, makes no sense at all and was not being constructive at all just weird. Here is what I would do... I would walk the pup and continue to change directions and treat every time the leash gets slack in it. Start walking if he pulls and leash gets tight quickly change direction, continue this until you get improvement soon as the dog leaves slack on the leash treat right away and mark it with a good or yes or click. Takes lots of patience but you got this! "its called changing direction" it helps your dog understand that you are the leader.

@@FarmerFpv is that going to stop a dog lunging?

I was actually doing that at times to get my coffee, lolol! And yes, that WILL bring about a nervous breakdown.

Hi! I have had my Aussi (12 weeks old) for 1 month and she still bites like crazy! When I tell her no bite she does it even more. I redirect with toys or bully stick but she will still bite me not even 5 min later. I put her in her crate to settle when she's persists. Hope she will learn soon!

“Initiating social interaction.” Key point. Don’t be a squasher. Put the work in first. Get off the couch. A tired puppy is a good puppy. Socialize your puppy. Peer & Environmental. * Exercise * Group socialization with peers snd mentors. * Environmental socialization.

LOVE this video! As someone that is used to old fashioned dog training I took my 2nd last puppy to a 'millennial' puppy class. Basically I wanted to learn clicker training. I didn't last past 2nd class for the foolishness and damage they were doing to puppies. I tried 3 different classes and trainers and left before completing any of them. Fearful puppy snapping and growling..and they gave it treats for stopping...all they taught that poor puppy was that if it snapped it got rewarded...barking puppies were given a toy so they taught the puppy that barking brought toy rewards...puppy whining with excitement at other puppies but not allowed to interact was force fed treats to 'reassure' the puppy...the puppy was excited and frustrated not scared... I gave the whole millennial puppy training up and my last puppy trained him at home the old fashioned way with very helpful tips from KZbin trainers like yourself. Thanks for what you do and what you give us dog owners

@larry andrews You're*

[@michelleanderson8370]

@larry andrews yes...feed the dog for the behaviours that you want...not for the behaviours that you DON'T want...Happy to know I'm not alone in the 'idiot' category

[@Sarah-pt2zj]

What are you talking about? He's using a clicker and has a pouch full of treats.

I have an 8 week old GWP. We dont have a fenced yard and were advised by our vet to refrain from public walks and exercise until he has all his shots. We cant really exercise him properly yet, so what would be your recommendation for bite inhibition?

[@coloradogirllovesmountains2909]

Thank you so much for all the helpful info you provide. My son just brought home a lab/mastiff 8 week old pup. I have a dog aggressive dachshund male 7 years old and he bit (no blood involved) the pup when he approached and touched him. The pup was howling for a minute or so and I removed the adult dog but I dont know if we should protect the pup or not get involved. Do you have any recommendation on how to handle this? Thank you.

I’d still love a video on what to look for in a boarding kennel. And I’d also like to see your kennel and why you set it up like you set it up!🤗 I’ve noticed these days some kennels have the dogs all caged up and others let the dogs all roam around together and even sleep together in an open room on cots! 🤷‍♀️ So what’s the thinking behind those differences.

[@StonnieDennis]

I have a series of videos on Board and Train. Are you asking about a video about just regular boarding kennels?

[@karene9131]

Yup, just wondering what to look for in a boarding kennel...not training and boarding...

I like the way the dogs just run off! Really good dog control 😂

[@karenmooney204]

Stonnie I need your help please! We helped to trained my last service dog using your training tips, 5 months ago someone poisoned him and he died. I was heart 💔 and distraught. My husband got me a great Pyrenees to guard the farm and a Australian Shepherd for my service dog. I would like to know when do I feed after training session so they respond better and is there a way I can train them not to take food from others only me. Any help would be wonderful and appreciated.
