I do get frustrated with my dog quite a lot. He’s from a shelter and is nervous and scared of a lot of things, and takes to barking and nipping people to get out of those situations. He’s gaining much more confidence now, but it’s definitely baby steps.

[@marlenaeva3813]

The reason I watch your videos is because I wanna learn about dogs and how to care for them. I don't want to get an Aussie but a bigger dog, probably a german sheperd. I wanna see if I can handle raising a puppy and how many sacrifices would I have to do for this. Also, Frankie is unbelievably cute and he's very happy with you.

[@inkwhiskers9948]

Thank you!! One of the biggest reasons I had such a hard time raising my German Shepherd puppy is simply because I thought I was doing a terrible job. Honestly, honestly, if I had just relaxed and realised puppies are puppies, we would be where we are NOW, back then. So yes, you're not a bad dog parent, so important!!

[@FrankieToTheMoon]

Glad it was helpful!

[@pilotleader]

Hey Joey - @1:25 I noticed you picking up Frankie’s toys - we taught our Aussie Doodle to put her toys away and she does it with simple commands (” put your toy in the box”)! Great mind challenge and less work for us too! 😁

[@fireflylantern]

I got you... No you dont. 😂😂😂😂Great vid

[@beccahopkins9889]

My ava (blue merle aussie as well) HATES her paws getting wet unless she fears I am drowning in a bubble bath and she tries to jump in haha

[@timtwice_DJ]

Hey Joey, hey Frankie, I got my mini aussie puppy 4 weeks ago. He looks like Frankie and your videos helped me with the decision to get him. I always wanted an aussie and now my dream became true! I will watch all your videos while teaching him and helping him to grow up. Greetings from germany😇

[@osweetheart]

How did you teach frankie to stop barking on signal? Been trying to train mine to do that!

[@rachealcooper917]

One of the main things I love you you and Frankie is that I can tell you do silly things even off cam like “You. Talking to me?!” You guys make me so happy every time you post, and this particular video was once again perfect timing. My girl and I had a rough day with listening around other dogs yesterday. (EDIT: and I felt like a terrible dog mom.)

[@chelseaart194]

Frankies gonna have a mid life crisis when he discovers snows just very cold water 🥶

[@michaelquillen2679]

Great way to help Frankie out of your Jeep! His joints are going to love you in the future. You ARE a good dog parent! Frankie does great with you...he is a dog and you let him be a dog. He is always looking at you for direction...this is good...this is what a good dog does. The only commands that one must absolutely insist upon for perfection, are those that can save Frankie's life (i.e., halt, sit, stay, leave it, come). Don't worry about the rest. Don't get frustrated. Let Frankie and yourself enjoy each other, and life with each other. The rest will work itself out. I enjoy your videos! P.S. Looking forward to your video with Frankie and running water. My boy loves running water!

[@rockintheflock]

I loved this. I have had moments where I was so frustrated with my puppy not listening I was crying, she is getting older (15 months) and she listens better now, but I haven’t definitely felt that frustration

[@danielmac9838]

Hey man! Interesting timing on the thunderstorm thing. I was just doing some research on that yesterday. Apparently, it has something to do with static electricity in the air and their coats. The fact she goes ok in the basement will be because of the concrete absorbing it to a degree.

[@ccrutch2]

Our aussie Yogi doesn’t like going out on the wet grass either. Sometimes he puts one foot in the grass and does his business on the concrete deck.

[@amycampbell113]

Such a good message Joey!! It's important to realize that we are our dogs people and the love us and are so happy to be with us.

[@sandyheartsfashion18]

That slow mo of the wind through Frankies hair 🥺🥰

[@Brandon-qn5rn]

My Aussie has become a princess about not getting her paws wet in the morning too. Then her 4 month old German Shepard sister runs out there like a mad dog and then she typically gets over it so she can chase her around the yard. Your videos have taught me a lot when it comes to owning an Aushole over that last year however (since she's only 1 year old all the training stuff has been great) so keep up the good work! The Frankie barking bits sent her into crazo mode both times though lol

[@kat200214]

I totally get that he loves running water. We have water fountains that our dog loves. Also little tip: Avoid giving water from the hose as the hose itself leaks chemicals into the water, and the brass piece at the end is not safe to have water flow through for consumption.

[@infinitehorizon]

Yea. Our Aussie doesn’t like getting his paws wet either ❤😂

[@dakottapaetsch2538]

My Aussie refuses to go out if it's wet or raining as well. So spoiled.

[@kaili5823]

1. How come Frankie is so clean all the time? 2. Buddy refuses to walk onto the wet grass in the morning and sometimes I have to walk her hours until she finds dry grass to do her business; 3. Buddy has that same water bottle but she doesn't like drinking from it, but she drinks from the gulpy. 4. Frankie looks like dumbo and so adorable when wind blew his ears up :D Such a lucky dog/pawent that you got each other!

Hi Frankie. I am also gonna get a mini Aussie so let’s see how it goes

[@cortneyfoley1097]

“i just thought id share, for ugh the humans”😂😂😂

[@jillp864]

Our Aussie Dolcezza does the same thing after rain. Not wanting to get her paws wet. But it’s funny cause we get hundreds (!!) of inches of snow in the winter and she has no issue wanting to pee on the snow and usually gets upset when the snow melts and has no where to pee. I think she’s messing with me. 🤪😉👍🏼

Does Frankie ever have sudden "behaviour relapses"? Like refusing to come when called, or reacting to strangers or other dogs a lot more... do you ever have to re-train him to get him back on track with these things?

[@jillp864]

My Aussie for sure!! I know it’s her smart way of teasing me.

[@shorterstax]

Love this video so much! I forget that Frankie is a mini Aussie, he just looks full grown. But he reminds me of my Josie girl. ESP. When you say “high maintenance “, “running water”, days of frustration yes. But they are so loving. And I really like the new water bottle. Going to get her one.

[@rebeccarawluk7277]

Great video this week. Thank you for mentioning to leash your dog when you are leaving and arriving at the dog park. So many people don't and I am terrified of accidentally running over someone's dog. I was wondering how often you clip Frankie's nails and do you do it yourself or take him to get them done? Frankie is so cute. I wait all week for a new Frankie video. His barking got my dogs singing the song of their peoples.

[@mochiyeosang1908]

Nails are usually naturally filed during walks and considering the amount of them Joey takes him on, I'd assume not too often

[@FrankieToTheMoon]

Omg it freaks me out and makes me so mad at the same time! It’s just such an awful experience just waiting to happen

[@CHRISTIANCOUNTRYGAL]

Oh man, my girl Allie is a 6 month old Aussie and no, she doesn't like going out in the dew in the morning or even at night when it's raining. Does she play in water? Of course. Does she like getting her feet wet when she has to pee? NO. She better get used to it; her first snow is coming, lol

Nope mine loves snow and will take his time going when it's raining unless it's really heavy rain then he would just as soon wait thunderstorm don't seem to bother him

[@zaarts8270]

im looking to buy a dog like frankie when i grow up im just scared that my house will be full of hair from the dog shedding. any tips bro?

[@jerrodshuck]

I have an Aussie, get them groomed regularly or a different breed would be the best bet. They have quite a bit, but are amazing dogs.

[@brownchicken1314]

My mini aussi dont shed at all..i akeays heard that they will. But mine dont at all

[@janicefennig552]

I've had a german shepherd, lab and now a minnie aussie. The aussie sheds less than either of the others!

[@Thomas-eo3dy]

Aussies aren't among the most shedding breeds, but since they have long hair you'll notice it around the house. Tips: - Optional: Maybe consider a poodle mix. Those still shed, sometimes a lot, but most of the times less than their non-poodle parent. I have a Duck Tolling Retriever and Poodle mix, which resulted in a super high energy dog who doesn't trigger allergies and shed as much as most other dogs. - What one should do anyway: Regularly brush with all the different kinds of brushes. Iirc aussies have an undercoat so one type of brush won't fully de-shed it. Also brush daily around shedding seasons - Lifesaver: Get a roomba. Having a roomba running once a day through your whole apartment/house is worth gold. I can't stress the amount of hair it collects, and I have to spend zero effort into it. Hope that helps!

[@zaarts8270]

@@Thomas-eo3dy thanks for the advice roomba and some house tools should do it and fresh it up a little, by the way im not a fan of poodles,Labradoodle or Goldendoodle, im more of a german sheppered, aussie or huskys L), Thanks for the tip about the roomba good idea

I've got a 3m/o collie that will not stop even after hours at the park. I have to put him in his crate for him to chill. Do you have any ideas on how to change this behavior?

[@michaelquillen2679]

You didn't ask me, but I'll jump in here. A 3m/o Collie is the epitome of uncontrolled energy. There is nothing wrong with putting your pup in the crate to get him to chill. Just make sure that going into the crate is a positive experience (positive voice, treats, etc.) and never a punishment. This practice can carry into adulthood for the dog. Also, establish a daily routine which your pup can become accustomed to and will learn your expectations...it works for hyperactive kids and it works for hyperactive puppies as well.
