  1. OMG. I’ve been stuck on what new things to teach our extremely intelligent rescue and now I’ve found a list of 20 options, with instructions! Great video!

    1. @Dog Training by Kikopup At the moment you’ve actually tackled almost every problem I’ve been having with my 8 months old aussie :)) (that’s incredible btw- Thanks for still making these videos after all those years!!)
      One thing which I do not think you’ll actually make a video about (but would need advice for) is her way to interact with other dogs.. she has a really strong personality and I have never seen her fearful of anything before- but bc of that she lacks respect for other dogs and no matter how often she gets reprimanded by them (or me) she just doesn’t care and proceeds to be a nuisance to them (jumping on them, biting them, not leaving them any space etc.) Fortunately, she has only met patient dogs for now but I’m scared that she will get bitten/injured one day ( when she sees dogs she loses all her interest in toys and treats)
      We’ve for now tried to take it step by step and start from a distance and work our way closer, but even when she’s calm in front of the dog and already is able to take treats again, the moment she starts to play she just doesn’t know the rules of the game…

  2. Timestamps! 🙂 Thank you for this lovely video tutorial <3

  3. Brilliant, I can’t believe how quickly my BC is learning these tricks. We love them, my family are amazed and I can’t thank you enough 😍😍

  4. I’m so happy! Because of this video I’m learning my white swiss shepherd to sit pretty, sword fighting and to look left and right. We started yesterday and she understands very well. It’s easy to forget how fun it is to learn your dog new things, it’s so fun to see them understand and make progress!

  5. Hi! Just to let you know that you are an amazing teacher. I love how you break things down and cover it all especially love the consideration to the dog and puppy safety (spine alignment etc.)
    Thanks for this impressive channel

    1. @Dog Training by Kikopup it was a relative success. although, she has gotten into a habit of not jumping cleanly through the hoop,
      might move onto sword jumping next.

      Thanks again for the valuable resource!

  6. Loved the video and just wanted to say how impressive and sweet it is to see all of your other dogs in the background patiently waiting for their turn!

  7. I’m deeply grateful for your generosity. I’ve always been leery of using a lure because I suck at fading it. You’re the queen of fading the lure and I’m having so much fun training my dog now!

  8. I am so happy to have found your videos! It is so awesome that you break your training steps down and build to the final result desired! Your dogs are amazing! Our Border Collie pup is coming home to us in a couple of weeks and we are excited to work on the basics with the future in mind! Thank You!
