Teach your dog to FETCH

[@OwenShartle]

I love how chill the dogs are while another gets attention. Awesome training.

[@GrammyChristine]

I'm so amazed to see the other dogs just sitting nonchalantly on the couch - not concerned one bit. If I got on the floor & used my "excited" voice, both dogs would be jumping all over me! You do great work Emily! Love it when I have a new video of yours in my inbox!

[@kikopup]

@watchmoivies123 no worries! Of course I couldnt do the video with a border collie, as people would not see that all breeds can learn :)

[@acvisanu]

Great job on the editing and putting the vid together kikopup. All the link is very seamless and classy I know it takes extra effort but it really made a big difference. I'm very impressed. As for the content, I don't need to say anymore as I'm a big fan of your work and you just hit another one out of the park.

[@myprophet1]

You know Emily, one beautiful thing about your vids is they don't just apply to dogs. I c/t with my horse, and everything you show is applicable w/him also. I have been speaking with many dog owners lately, and intro-ing c/t to them. My first suggestion is always your youtube site. You are def at the top of the game:)

[@ellen5257]

I know you've had this video up for so long, but I find it inspiring every time I watch it. Thankyou, Kikopup! :)

[@mklnelson77]

yesss, the dog holding the quarter is amazing lol

[@jeanettebailey8258]

at 3:05 the chihuahua on the couch with its tongue out. hilarious

[@kikopup]

@musicofnote1 Yes, most sight hound owners and chihuahua owners don't even try because they think its not possible to teach fetch, but you can! :)

[@SilentKhayos]

oh my! I'm so glad you posted this. I've been trying to find the video on getting dogs to pick up objects for a long time! Good video as well. I agree, your videos I recommend a lot and I too have used your method with different species. Works great!

[@HannahFeng0307]

Anyone else loves how Spash is always in the background sleeping?

[@xyx6903]

Delightful! I am familiar with some of these concepts; however, observing you perform them with errorless learning is a great reinforcement. And it is also a pleasure to see the dogs so engaged in their training! I'm looking forward to expanding my dog's repertoire of skills!!

[@kikopup]

@TioMoka You mean the "prize"? The reward was actually kibble- a whole one for the big dogs and small pieces for the little dogs. but my dogs love all food. A great treat for dogs that are not as motivated is real meat and real cheese. (small amounts of cheese as it is unhealthy)

[@azmauigirl]

Emily, you are an amazing young woman and so giving. I was so excited to see that there was a way that I could give something back to you in the way of donations. You rock!

[@Rickyagility]

Fantastic video! Wow - Splash is an expert at fetching all objects!

[@MiTmite9]

Excellent. I'm going to try this starting tomorrow. I love how "school in in session," and the other dogs just hang out, knowing their turn will come. Awesome.

[@Pandaraze]

@1coris Teach her to hold something in her mouth while she's sitting. Then let her hold the item while she's standing, and ask her to sit. If she drops the item, don't click just try again.

[@carmenbuit]

Excellent training, excellent & fun instructional video.

[@Pamsdogacademy]

Twix loved listening to you on this video. Love the donation idea! It is so very time consuming making quality videos. :)

[@littleaussiepoodle5106]

You can also teach the dog to put the object in something, then put your hand where the object was. I found this worked with my dog, who had trouble targeting my hand. The box being on the ground meant he didn't find it being there as an incentive to drop the object he was holding. It results in the same behaviour of dropping the object in your hand.

[@hannahbohbanna]

Thanks so much for this video! I've watched a few other videos on teaching this and never gotten far-- I taught my dog drop-it before, so she immediately thought that's what I wanted (even though I wasn't clicking or rewarding for that). Your technique of tugging and backing up finally got through to her that I want her to keep the object in her mouth. We'll keep working on this and hopefully before long she'll be putting away her toys!

[@lindas.martin2806]

PEase never stop these wonderful training videos. They are the best! Ah, if there is a way to present them in Spanish, I could happily share the. With bunches of people! 😊

[@kikopup]

you can change the closed captions to spanish

[@c.h.7581]

I adoreeeee your vids Kikopup!!! I have a canine behaviour certificate and am forever giving out free advise (I live in Greece).. and am also forever recommending you! Thank you!!! What lucky dogs you have!!! :-)

[@kikopup]

@TheSpazzofMuffins It depends if you put the behavior on stimulus control- like service dog behaviors. But the object in the video was a plastic toy shoe, that splash hates picking up so I thought I would use it to teach her fetching anything is fun! I did not add the bit to this video about how to teach them not to mouth the objects on the way back, because I thought it would be too long but I will make a tutorial on that soon!

[@MostlyPoodles]

I never thought about using the touch command to teach my dog to put a toy in my hand. Very useful and fun tutorial! :D Fetch is such a fun game to play with your dog :D

[@kimmcamp]

Seriously do you read my mind??? I just phoned Donna to ask for help on this very thing. Thanks Emily... love your videos and the coincidence is too funny.

[@donnyz89]

I really love the personality in your videos :) Some trainers have made claims that over-reliance on clickers in some trainers take away the human-dog interaction, and have become too mechanical and scientific, which is I think is an unsubstantiated statement. Just because a trainer relies heavily on clickers doesn't mean his/her relationship with the dog suffers in any way. Well done :)

[@Jal1515]

Love this video :) I have been teaching my Lab to do this with several things (bringing my shoes, getting her leash and bringing my keys) She finds this game really fun and exciting! hehe :) I also LOVE Splash's Rogz ID tag, very fitting ;)

[@brittawilson2872]

Love your videos! You make it look so easy!

[@sintheticsmile]

splash is the absolute cutest! i feel like i'd get into the bad habit of throwing everything in the house just to watch her fetch it :) love the videos!

[@WolfSoul89]

very great! you are such awesome with your dogs, wow I love wathc your videos :)

[@eshoalts9205]

you are amazing!! I love your videos, you are such a talented trainer and an inspiration!

[@BlackMist301]

Just started this with my dog Puppit, I'm really surprised he's already taking it in his mouth. I had tried training this before and I guess my timing or something was just off. Thanks for the videos! You're my training inspiration

Thanks Emily for sharing what you know and do. :)

[@cindycastellano]

lol the dogs in the background is so adorable!

[@higgsfieldinthefield9916]

My dog is pretty good about taking things you ask her to or doing whatever you ask her to do, but you have to ask nice she wouldn't take any of that 'commands' nonsense. It is great to have a dog who thinks for herself weing up situations and deciding what to do than a dog who just follows orders. again, thank you for another excellent post.

[@marieke6687]

Thanks for this video, we were struggling with this, it will be our goal for the coming weeks!

[@nolanerunner1]

Great work! Love it!

[@kikopup]

Thanks!

[@myhomeiswhereiam]

Brilliant as usual

[@JessicaRoseDesigns]

I love your training! I have taught my 11 wk old bc "Rocket' how to "touch" today from your video!

[@xopnaibebeox]

@2:41 the background derp is my favorite part of this whole video.

[@eleganthani9116]

I am watching and learning from ur video in 2022 .love u

[@kikopup]

@kimmcamp Yes, I do !

[@Scarletlight525]

It's gonna rain all day tomorrow, so I think we'll be practicing some of this! My boy is going to be a service dog when he grows up, and our trainer wanted us to practice fetching but I haven't been having much success. Maybe this way will work better!

[@chael88]

Lol the little dog at the end sitting down on the couch is like "what I can do that!"

[@CharlottePhebe]

Love your videos! We also have a multiple dog household. How do you teach your other dogs to stay calm while you're training with one of them? Do you have a video about that kind of training?

[@MrVbdude]

I will donate as soon as the money gets processed by the paypal. Thanks for all the hard work. :)

[@jayedlatifprince4753]

Use full video... BTW what is that white breed in the open ground

[@gerdamackenzie2024]

Thank you! I’ve been struggling with this!

[@hodown74]

Thank you for your vids!!! You are amazing! How do you train with more than one dog in the room? I have 2 dogs and that is always an issue. They both try to get in on the action.

[@natanianunubiznez]

i love your shirt! Also- the video was helpful.

[@kikopup]

Thanks!

[@Grealsa]

3:00 little doggy in the background seems to chill and enjoy the training view...

[@Relktok]

your videos are great thank you!!!

[@Jedum]

question, is it necessary to use a clicker, or can you snap your finger instead? will it work as well?

[@jocelynteo]

do i introduce a command for this exercise and at which stage should i? thanks for your videos!! :)

[@snoopsntiggs]

Amazing training videos! I have 3 dogs too, how did you get to the stage where 2 will sit quietly while you work with the 3rd?

[@Ahmenti]

I think I've said it before but you are my no.1 fav KZbin trainer. Love you work! Question...my dog take the item in his mouth then immediately spits it out in order to get the treat. Even if I Mark when the item is in his mouth. How do I get him to hold it for longer? Maybe there's a part two that covers that?

[@alomaro]

Awesome!!!!!! Very useful!!!!!!! Thanks for Sharing!!!! Saludos!!! Omar

[@whelkshuffler]

love how the other dogs sit and watch

[@TioMoka]

what do you give them ? whats the "price" and how big is it? thanks and greetings from mexico

[@Adorn71]

Hi Em - do you have any advice for 'crunchers'? They are happy to take and hold and fetch and give, but most gets crunched. So no carrying the car keys for now!

[@FuiSooty]

Thanks again Emily. And nice inclusion of zsianz1's tutorial. Ha ha, had to go back and check out Kiko's tongue sticking out. Too funny!

[@Andreaefreitag1978]

hey kiko, congratulation. do you have a video where you explain how to keep something in dogs mouth?

[@kikopup]

email me at [e-mail] I can give you advice there.

[@watchmoivies123]

Border Collies say oh come on, lol just ask "me" to get that! Nice work! Kim

[@gayatrivishalshinde]

HI i am Dog trainer vishal shinde from India i saw ur videos they are really helpful and excellent i wanted to know which dvd should i have for trick dog training thanku

[@KelseyTVS]

Your shoes. Are so. Awesome.

[@myriamcu]

I would like to know how you keep the other 2 dogs relaxed..watching you and the other dog?

[@stnningbeauty85]

She uses a box "clicker" to make the clicking noise. You can pick one up at any pet supplies store and some larger stores like Walmart/Meijer carry them in their pet aisle.

[@Leverquin]

does standar schnauzer is good for fetching ?

[@sherwoodbarks2]

Again, Great Video - Thanks so much.

[@tehrenberg]

Excellent as always ; }

[@monikakrzeminska7296]

thank you for this video! we are starting rith now :)

[@elicialovess]

I love how genuine you are with your animals! Your videos are so helpful and it's clear that you are truly fond of dogs. :) Thank you so much for the training help, we are raising a future service dog for my partner and your videos have helped tremendously!

[@emmaluke3501]

My puppy is extremely smart and learns SO fast, yet learning this skill has yet to prove her intelligence. She is too in-tune with the treats that she wants nothing to do with whatever it is I'm trying to get her to grab, even her favorite of toys!! Please I really need some pointers or ideas to help me!! I am also training her to turn off the lights and I have attached a cord to it so that she only has to pull it down and I would like any offers of help to teach her that :) :) :D Thank you so much!

[@rustlingjacks]

Great video, but when I ask my dog to pick up an object from the floor he gets REALLY silly and throws it around, in the air, etc (cute but slightly annoying!). How would you encourage him to pick it up and hold it?

[@musicofnote1]

Another great one. Having a retriever tends to get me forgetting, what it can be like teaching this to a non-retriever. :-)

[@kimmobley333]

Great tutorial. My dog Koby is great at taking, carrying, and places items inside objects. He will also perform tricks while holding something in his mouth. However, I am having trouble getting him to sit still and hold an object without chomping on it and it falling out of his mouth. Any ideas how to get him to hold it quietly with out the movement of his mouth. I have tried marking and rewarding for ever tiny moment that he holds it with out chomping and it has gotten better but still not great. I would love to be able to take pictures of him holding an object but he is so wiggly with his head and mouth when sitting still. But, he does not chomp at it when he is moving though.

[@_roshi]

for a puppy that sometimes eats/swallows things that aren’t her food, do you think this would make that better or worse? 🤔 I am not sure if encouraging her to put random things in her mouth will teach her not to just swallow things, or if it would increase her desire to try and eat it

[@puppy10532]

how do you get them to stop chewing on the object thats in their mouth? whatever toy I get her to fetch, while shes bringing it back or before she drops it in my hand, she has to chew on it 2-3 times before releasing

[@hollynoahdaisy7192]

Hi Kikopup, I like your approaches on training dogs but I am a little disturbed that there is Hannah Pet Society ad right in front of your training video. Do you support the pet leasing business?

[@tomgorky2943]

Great..thank u mam for sharing..

[@angelicaj_6214]

I don't have a clicker so will it still work without it

[@itzem285]

I don't have a clicker and my dog is still well trained! So you do not need a clicker.

[@angelicaj_6214]

+Itz Em ok thxs 😁

[@chrisginoc]

CandyGalaxy Angelica Clicker is also known as marker training. Use the word "Yes".

[@lulm8767]

People dont know how to compromise lol.... use your phone. Im sure you can find a sound effect app. No need to make a clicker company rich.

[@itsjustanitabro]

is it possible to make him fetch something i didnt throw? e.g his leash and collar?

[@terilooney]

Lovely, thanks!

[@davidsmith4699]

Does anyone know what kind of treats she uses?

[@goosesmommy6626]

How do I get my dog to not run away with the object and try to destroy it before I can even say touch? And how do I get his nose out of the smelly bowl? Auggie also drops on command but won’t do it every time...he either wants to tug with the object or run away with it and go into destroy mode.

[@bloodkp]

Your other dogs are so well behaved even when the clicker is going off. I am currently using clicker training with my puppy, but in group training sessions when other people's clickers are going off she gets distracted, or looks at me for a treat. What should I do in these situations?

[@bankspeete1057]

At what point do they start learning the word for each object?

[@katiebobatie73]

My dog is reliably taking the object but I’m stuck building up duration. She knows she will get a treat (were even using low value treats like her kibble) so she just takes it into her mouth and then drops it. We’re using high value items like her frisbee that she usually only gets to play with outside! How can I build up duration?

[@cbcboston]

kikos chillin

[@genteelrebel1]

Oh yes, please do! I'm a very novice clicker trainer who made the mistake of teaching my border collie to fetch my shoes, and now he won't STOP fetching them. When I sit down for more than five minutes, I end up with half a dozen shoes scattered at my feet. I don't want to tell him "no", because he's just doing what I told him to do and it's great having him sniff out a lost pair of shoes when I do want them. Any help would be appreciated!

[@watchmoivies123]

Yea, I think you may be right. lol Thanks for all your cool videos.. Kim

[@michalharel4209]

My dog loves to run after toys but won't bring them back. Waits for me to get the toy or runs away. Tried the back chain retrieve method but he won't take the toy on command. Will sniff it and bite it but won't take in his mouth or hold it on command......any suggestions?

[@raysofgreys]

Love how the chihuahua watches patiently! My dogs won't stay put, and with four dogs, it's training chaos!

[@Paulina-xe1th]

At what point/how do you add the cue word? I am in a wheelchair, and I want to train my dog to grab something off the floor if I can't reach it.

[@gooconz]

When the dog knows what to do, say the cue as the dog is doing it, right before or at the same time as you click. When you've done that several times, you can progress to saying the cue word before the dog does the desired behavior. Practice in different environments and with yourself in different positions. The first cues are the hardest, after that the dog should start to get the general idea.

[@kikopup]

@Jal1515 I love it too :)

[@TuggerAbbey]

How do you get your other dogs to not react to the clicker?

[@davidabernathy8823]

My dog, an Akita, 7 months old, loves to play ball, she will fetch and bring the ball back but then will not release it. She wants to do tug of war, but I will not play that game. How do I get her to release the ball when she comes back?

[@K9JusticeTrue]

Why won't you play that game? It's a great reward, too! But maybe with a tug like toy. A great way for releasing a ball is to have another ball. Play with it and wait for a drop, click or mark, then throw the other one. Then move to hiding the second ball behind you, in pocket, and wait for drop, mark, throw.

[@muskan-gf4cl]

U can hit him LIGHTLY on the nose and say in a strict tone leave. If he doesn't den u can get his favourite treat and he has to leave it. As soon as he leaves it give him d treat and praise him. Dis should work.

[@K9JusticeTrue]

No you don't have to do that, and that's not good training. No reason whatsoEVER to hit a dog, even lightly. Please just watch more kikopup's videos for the real training. You can teach to let go of a tug or ball, by using 2 in the game. It's not hard at all.

[@muskan-gf4cl]

***** noo i dnt literally mean hitting, u cn say jus tap coz dis trick works. Just tap on the nose!!! :)

[@bellaswan4069]

I dont have a clicker will it still work???

[@valeriemartinez6104]

Bella Swan use a treat

[@johnperpah4665]

so obviously every dog is different , but what are you experiences with dogs regarding the average time frame it takes for a dog to to master this?
