  1. This is almost exactly what I do. I love a stay that doesn’t require an explicit command to maintain. Though I have on occasion been like “why aren’t you coming with me” oh wait….oops.

  2. Thank you so much for this compilation.
    Your tutorials always are good quality.
    Your – I shouls say ‘our’ – library is very complete.

  3. Your videos are so awesome. Love how you are able to really see things from the dog’s perspective 😀 Would love to see more about different ways to integrate play into your training to get a happier and more focused dog. I have a 6 months old Norrbottenspets that I hope to be able to compete with, when he gets older. Although he likes training with me, he would still choose exploring the environment over our training sessions, if I let him (I know this is normal for his age).. I try to keep the sessions light and playful and integrate the environment as reward. But sometimes I feel that I do the same things over and over – would love some new inspiration 🙂

    1. You could try teaching a cue “go sniff”. Then I play this sneaky game, you say “go sniff” mark and feed the dog for sniffing a couple of times, if the dog is taking the treat, then call the dog, mark and give a treat, then cue go sniff. Repeat multiple times until the dog is coming back reliably… Then after calling the dog back, dont click and just cue the dog to go sniff again. Sometimes this will cause the dog to say “hey wait a minute! I didnt get my treat for coming back!!! and then you can ask for another behavior mark and reinforce with a treat then cue go sniff. Often this causes the dog to feel like wanting to work for treats instead of sniffing… But of course if you do this in a really exciting new place before the dog has had a chance to sniff around already, it could mean the dog will just ignore the food and you completely

  4. Wow thank you for another great resource. I regularly refer clients to your YouTube videos as they are so helpful when training at home between group classes.

  5. Thank you so much for all these videos. We just adopted a 2 year old shelter dog and your videos have helped so much. Video request. Our dog is really shy and is super scared of the car and car rides. What would you do to make your dog more comfortable in the car and getting into the car?

  6. Loved this video! Do you have any tips for proper posture? I’m having problems luring my puppy into neat sits and downs- he likes to lay with his legs out to one side, and sit with one leg sticking out. Sometimes he does them nicely, but just as often, not. 🙁

    1. when you’re asking for a sit and you want to ‘clean it up’ make sure you only MARK or CLICK for the position you prefer. Remember that dogs take 10-15 (or more) repetitions to make an association between the marker word and the delivery of the treat. We do repetitive exercises to produce a muscle or movement memory in the dogs mind. Once they can pin point the movement that produces the treat they will perform that particular movement over and over to ensure the delivery of the treat that they want. Hope that helped!

  7. I am so glad i found your channel. Do you recommend any command training schedule that goes week wise as the pup grows. I mean, which commands to teach as you are starting out and how to progress to more complex ones.

  8. You make this look so easy! I have 2 aussies and have been using your videos to train them. I appreciate the step by step instructions and the additional tricks to help lure them into positions. Can you list the types of treats you are using please? Thanks again, you are amazing and your dogs are so beautiful!

  9. In my opinion, this is a vital skill for any puppy or dog to have. Not only is it for safety (stop them from eating things, or chasing things), but it also helps to build impulse control. And it’s so versatile, to help with many different behavioral issues.
