[@Haydenssphotography]

Just saw this video on my recommended and clicked on it straight away. We are picking up a puppy in 2 weeks and have been watching your channel for months Will. Your videos are so informative and very useful. Thanks!

[@SunnyvaleTrailerParkSupervisor]

How's the puppy doing? What breed? BTW 2 puppys are way better than 1.

[@Haydenssphotography]

@@SunnyvaleTrailerParkSupervisor He is very well behaved and a pleasure to have

[@animalmania2381]

​@SunnyvaleTrailerParkSupervisor they really aren't, I could agree 2 dogs are better than one but 2 puppies at the same age are so much more than double the work of having 1 puppy

[@kc-n-sassy]

@@SunnyvaleTrailerParkSupervisor littermate syndrome... u shouldn't get 2 dogs from the same litter. I had 2 mini schnauzers same breeder NOT same litter. The breeder even said don't get 2 dogs from the same litter. KC was my first mini schnauzer and first dog. Sassy was 3 months 1 day younger than KC 1/2 bro and sister.. same dad different moms. KC was very outgoing and very well behaved. Sassy was the same except she would randomly test whoever was on the other end of the leash. Sassy knew we were the bosses.. but she would see if she could get away with stuff..lol

I'm speaking a different language and sometimes it's a bit of a struggle for me to understand the meaning or some words completely - but not by watching your videos, it's easy. Your whole movement and how you speak and took your words, its like you are speaking my language, nice side effect, its like getting better and learning the language everytime by enjoying your videos. Thank you for your inspiring work and your dedication to all the dogs and people you are helping out by what you and your team are doing 🧡

[@vikkiefrance7345]

Dude you are amazing, we’ve had our puppy about a week and he’s a nightmare, love him… but he’s a terror, watched one video and implemented a couple of techniques and he’s already stopping crying as much, he cries as soon as we leave the room, he cries to be held, he will only sleep in someone’s arms, he cries and bites and craps all over the house, gonna make you my puppy guru ❤

[@LordBroski]

I've just adopted my first dog, a 9 week old Chocolate Labrador. He's a beautiful, intelligent boy but being a novice, I was worried about training him - I found Will's channel and it's been an absolute pleasure to train my four-legged friend. Thank you!

[@ashleysmith7850]

I love this guy! He’s such a great trainer and his videos have helped me and my baby so much. Thank you

[@blissbillo9603]

I'm so happy I found your channel!!! I've worked with lots of adult dogs before, but I just adopted a dog I was told was 3yrs old who can't be more than 10 months... This beautifully outlined the difference between baby training, teen training, and grown dog training. Wonderful info! And it's great that you emphasize loving leadership - I think so many people are afraid of being mean dictators, so it's wonderful that you stress that all this training is founded in love, so the dog can feel safe and supported. You're a very clear teacher, and I'm definitely binging all your other videos immediately. Thank you for all the work you do, for dogs and humans alike❤

[@michellewehl6888]

Have just fostered two (large) 3 month old puppies (hunting/working dog mix bred for hunting feral pigs). I'm applying your strategies and am achieving very encouraging results. Have started with the biting (essential! lol), sit and leading. We have a daily routine, with predictable meal, play and training times. They have unusual temperaments in that they sit respectfully, silently, shoulder-to-shoulder, while I prepare their food. And if there is a loud noise, they stand together silently in the doorway looking out, or up in the case of a helicopter. So intelligent. I do so hope they get responsible owners... PS I do have assistance. My cattle dog is very good with them, but tolerates no nonsense.

[@catherineblanco171]

Picking up our puppy tomorrow, 5 hours drive away. We can't wait and your videos have been very timely and informative. Thank you.

I have a 9 week golden retriever puppy, whenever we start playing he bites/jumps and gets hyperfocused so it's like we can't distract him only way to get him to stop is leave the room. please tell me it gets easier 😅

[@fatt-shirtprinter3394]

Man this video was fantastic. I will become a long time subscriber as you explained everything I want out of my 7 week old puppy. By his 8 week I will be returning to working full time and I don’t want him to become stressed while I am at work. Currently working with hood food and potty schedule along with the basics training. Any recommendations?

[@susan9188]

Why get a puppy if you are expecting it to be on it's own for such a long time. That's cruel!

[@AmeeHerdzik]

This is great, but I’m looking for HOW to achieve this!!

[@AlohaK9s]

Exactly, I just can't see how to train a dog and their person without seeing the owner's capabilities matched with their dog. Leash handling is important.

Gday from Australia. I have just taken on a beautiful rescue dog who’s 2.5 years old. He’s a Koolie cross Cattle and has a beautiful nature. He responds well and is quite well behaved. Crate trained from a pup so that isn’t an issue. Loves going for walks etc but he can’t decide which side of me to stay on so he constantly changes sides! Just from watching this video, I’m sure we’ll get it sorted very soon.

I have had my puppy for 3 weeks is it too late to start this training? Obviously have done some training but would love this guidence of the course

[@kettleisalwayson]

Good morning. Just a bit of background. My daughter when she was really young wanted a dog but we had two elderly cats and lived in a small mid terrace house. We were both working full time so felt it would not be in the dog's or the family's interests so instead decided to sponsor a guide dog. Fast forward our situation has changed we now live in a semi rural semi detached and our cats have passed on. I am now a foster carer for children so at home most days except for the odd meeting and the school run. We are now thinking about getting a dog. We are thinking about getting a retired guide dog or one that has not completed the guide dog training. The breeds being considered are a lab/retriever or German shepherd. Would do you think? Pros/cons? I don't want to make a mistake and disrupt a dog's life

Hi Im not very technical, how do I start watchingvyour training puppy course please?

[@knight11011]

I have one question, I would really appreciate any input. My brother and his wife got a puppy a year ago. however they have not trained her at all. basically let her do anything she wants, and now at 1 year old, she jumps on everyone, and most of all she goes crazy with my brother's wife who raised her mostly. she goes insane around her, bites her donest listen to her, and she is reluctant to be very strict with her. I have started to train her, and she is slowly relearning everything, but still she goes bunkers around my brothers wife. what can we do? thanks

[@lynnmaniti]

Is the Perfect Puppy Course still appropriate for dogs I've just adopted? One is 1.5 years old & the other is 3 years old

I didn’t socialize my dog when it was a puppy,now it barks at any thing that moves any tip for that ?

[@JudithBeaudoin]

I just adopted a 4 month old great Pyrenees puppy 3,weeks ago. She was isolated in a barn by herself and is terrified of everything and every noise. She will not go for a walk or go far from my front door. I sit outside with her to get used to different noises but when it comes to trying to walk her away from the noise she tries to run back to my door . I do stress positive behavior and try to calm her. I'm not sure how to get her to move past her fears and anxiety. HELP please.

[@kitschmygrits4836]

New sub here and my dream is to save all dogs from the e list here in Az. especially Phoenix. I cry almost daily because I can't seem to not focus on the fact that in Phoenix, Arizona which is Maricopa county, the Humane Society and the county pound are each euthanizing over 20 sometimes 30 loving healthy dogs a DAY despite the fact that they both opened brand new, upgraded, state of the art facilities this year. They get killed just for existing because some people are not doing any homework before they get a dog, not neutering, and not spending any time working with or learning how to work with their dog. Disposable entertainment is how they are treated and it horrifies me that we still do this. I am so sick of crying about it but I don't know where to start aside from raising awareness by sharing posts and videos on all social media. Educating the people is so important but how do we get their attention? How do we change laws? You are saving lives and that's what I need to do too.

[@p.janemaxwell632]

dude, yes, agree with everything you're saying... but HOW

I never understood, if you train them to walk on loose lead, how do you let them sniff and mark their scent? Is that something i should be deciding for the dog?

[@tonya4689]

This is a very good question. I have always let my girl run the show (within reason) when it is potty time. I would love to know what Will suggests because something tells me that he would disagree with ever letting the pup run the show.

[@seanstewart7622]

I think if you watch his video about “being a bad dog owner” and “being a bad trainer” he talks about letting dogs sniff but being in control of when to move.

If you’re looking for actual puppy training tutorials, this isn’t the video for you. This is a long video explaining why you should teach your dog certain things, it does not offer any practical tutorial.

[@GUYISNOTNORMAL]

Not even idk any dog thing but I saw a golden retriever puppy for £1000

[@Shadenir]

This video is hardly informative at all. It's teaser ad for one of his courses. There's a little info in it about the course, and just enough on actual training to make you want to spend money on them. That'd be fine if the video was being presented as an teaser for the larger course. By starting out with a deceptive introduction, they've made it impossible for me to trust that I'll get my money's worth out of the course, which is a shame given the philosophy sounds good. Hard pass.

[@shadyxi3217]

Your lose lol
