  1. Poor Inertia! “Dad’s playing with the bratty kid. I’ll bring him a toy and show her how to play right.” Zak: “Thanks, Inertia!” Takes toy and plays with bratty puppy instead of with Inertia. You can see it in her face: “Huh? What? You were supposed to play with me!” Oh, the trials of being the “good girl”!

    1. Yes! This happened so often when we got our dachshund-Jack Russell puppy one year ago. Our 3 yr old doodle (who is very similar to Inertia in temperament) was so good with him, but often ended up being my helpmate. One year on both are best friends and the puppy biting is a thing of the distant past. Now helping with introduction to strangers coming into our house is the lesson of the day. COVID meant no real visits for the year and now the puppy thinks this is the way it should stay.

  2. Biscuits is like the Energizer bunny…she keeps going and going and going. I got tired just watching her for 30 minutes. She’s so confident, and hilarious, and the sweetest face while sound asleep.

  3. Having just gone through this stage it’s rather satisfying to know it’s normal for a puppy to do this and they do come out of it. My puppy is now 6 months and rarely bites anymore thank goodness

  4. Really need this today. My just 4 month old lab still likes to bite more than I’d like. Tired biting, hyper biting, bored biting….some things work, some don’t and he needs a times out. ; (

  5. Hilarious!! 🤣. I love the down to earth narratives in between the scenes. Other dog trainers could learn so much from this ! Number 1 being ‘getting over themselves’ 🙄. Keep it up, it’s seriously good 😊

  6. I learned to call that kind of training “bite inhibition”. I had a problem with a former dog who was taught not to bite the old fashioned way and when he had a bad moment he hurt the nearest dog. I wasn’t going to make that mistake again. I did a good job on Jasper though it took ages as he got stronger and I had to keep starting again but it didn’t work with Marzieh because the first time I squeaked as she was biting me, she never bit me again.
    Inertia knows what to do about puppies. She is brilliant!

  7. My 3-month old GSD mix puppy is exactly at this stage! In fact I was trying to calm her down on one of her biting frenzies when this episode dropped an hour ago. Thanks Zak, for your insights in your book. The videos and the book have given me hope about raising a well-behaved dog 👍🏽🎈😊

  8. To say I’ve been catching up on your ENTIRE backlog this past week, would be an understatement. First new episode I’ve seen as it comes out. Love the production value, the clarity in explanations, and the ups and downs being so realistic.

  9. When our puppy was presented with a treat Matt she grabbed a corner and gave it a quick shake, all the treats went flying and she gobbled them up quick. Whole ordeal lasted about 15 seconds. 🤣

  10. Amazing series! Followed your advice for the 1st time 7yrs ago when I got my 1st dog. Told myself I will never get a puppy again, and here I am, adopted another pup. I do have a question, how do you control new puppy around your older dog, ie not stealing their toys, food, or jumping all over requesting attention on them when you are petting or paying attention to an older dog?
    Thank you!

  11. We have a 1 year old Brittany who was such a biter! As far as biting humans, we were pretty successful at getting her to use a softer mouth and as she got older did the loud “ouch” which made her stop biting humans almost completely. She has always been a aggressive, chewer however she always preferred her toys to furniture etc. She can chew through every single toy we’ve tried. Even the black Kongs are no match. We’ve found getting a rope toy every once in a while to let her shred is a special treat but otherwise stick to bones and antlers.

  12. Such a fun series! Brings back memories of when my almost 2-year-old was a little puppy. Always love seeing and hearing Bree. Can’t wait for the series where she does the training.

  13. Yes!!! I feel so good (and happy 😜) that this happens to THE Zak George as well 😂😂 I’ve a beagle who has chewed up the house because he would want constant attention AFTER spending hours playing and running around the garden already (he’s a sweetheart now but his puphood was too energetic)! A puppy is exhausting!! (Ultimately 1 year in we got a puppy for my dog and that worked wonders 😂😂😂)

  14. Zak,
    Another perfect video to help train me! Oh how I wished I had a Gremlin!
    No, I rescued a 2.9 lbs Tasmanian Chihuahua Devil who I am convinced thinks biting me is her biggest life joy🤣
    Petco here we come and new food mat I will be ordering ASAP!
    Angel (Yes, that is the She Devil’s name) & I watch your videos together a few times hoping Biscuit will teach her new manners!
    Look forward to the next video 🐾💞
