  1. Loving the series Zak! You’ve gotten me to fully invest my life into training my 11 week old Australien Labradoodle and after 1 week it’s already incredible what she’s learned! Feedback for the series: Keep doing what you’re doing. When I watch your video’s, the things I’m looking for is how you deal with certain situations with your dog(s). Like letting them sniff and at the same time stop them from eating every leaf and flower they see. Thanks and keep it up you both! <3

  2. I’ve been watching your videos on and off for a long while and ive always loved how real you make dog training. you show the reality of dog training, how things dont always go as planned but also how to overcome those issues actively!

    I’m very thankful for how you break down each step so its easier to understand what you’re doing and why its important.

    keep being awesome guys!

  3. I honestly love the new videos compared to the other ones. I like that you guys adopted a small breed dog that is very barky so I’m very interested how you guys train her. I also like the fact that she’s your own dog so it’s gonna be interesting to see day to day training. Veronica is a great name btw, loving the fluffy ears❤😘

  4. I like that you have been switching up your format. In the past you have repeated the same training messages over and over which, no offense, can get a little stale for viewing if I am not actively training a dog. Don’t get me wrong, I really enjoy you, Bree and your content and think you do an amazing job, but once I have seen all your training tips over and over it takes a change of format to get me excited to watch another video on the same subject you have already covered a few times. I also like that you are instructing Bree on dog training and correcting her mistakes. It gives me a better, more nuanced, idea of what I do wrong and what to do instead.

  5. I just got into your channel because I’m NOT a dog person but I think if I understand dog training, having a dog will be super gratifying. Can you talk more about what kind of expectations a ‘non-dog-person’ should have when they are first thinking about getting a dog?

  6. I’m always excited for a new series which features dogs that are trained for day 1. Looking forward to a more focused training on veronica just like the inertia series. I love that you guys are doing what you guys love to do but “on the road” life is not for me and I feel like it’s a travel vlog more than one on one focused training on veronica. Love the channel.

  7. The series you have had on your channel have gone above and beyond what I could have hoped. My 6 mo GSD is doing wonderfully in his development because I was able to study your channel a year before I got him and I learned how to create structure. I can’t express enough how much your channel has helped me— thank you.

    I would love to see how to introduce dogs to swimming!!

  8. I’d like you to teach us about dealing with the after effects of Covid isolation and lockdown. My pup was one year old, happy, curious and outgoing. Then came two years of isolation and it changed how he interacts with the world. The vet says start training all over again from scratch but I’m not seeing much change. Separation anxiety is an issue, as is nervous submission with people and panicky fear of large dogs. It breaks my heart so see him struggle. Any tips on how to work with dogs that are going through this would help.

    1. That is a good point . I got my puppy at that time , too . Of course , my dog were playing with each other , but not with other dogs and we missed the puppy group . Separation anxiety when I just go out to the mailbox or even when I am at the phone is getting better , but still a long way to go . Grown dog with 50 lbs , but still a puppy . Luckily the big dog is helping her with retracting her with toys .

  9. Grooming! When you take Inertia or Veronica to see the groomer give us a grooming 101 class or dog grooming for dummies 🙂
    Love your show. You all are awesome!

  10. Love your videos, been here for like 4 years so quite a long time i would say ☺️. Found this account when my border collie was small, crazy, devil puppy. You really helped us to bring him up properly. But now, he is an adult and don’t have any behavioral problems. So maybe you could do some series for more advanced dog owners 😁. Like some dog tricks tutorials or maybe an introduction to dogs sports ☺️. That would be nice 💗

  11. I am really enjoying this current series tremendously! Seeing you address spontaneous situations as they occur is so helpful. Seeing that you have to continuously teach Veronica to stop barking makes you both more human, in a good way! Seeing how much constant reinforcement and rewarding is needed to train a pup really drives that concept home. Being able to vicariously travel the US is really fun, too! This series has so much to offer. Hope you have safe travels as you journey onward.

  12. Hey Zak + Bree, I’m loving this new series with Veronica (but I also loved the one with Inertia too).

    My favorite part is the realistic yet optimistic perspective you choose to have when facing the challenges of Veronicas unique combo of characteristics.

    Also, I loved seeing how you invite Inertia to be a teaching aid with Veronica. It’s wonderful to see how far Inertia has come in her training.

    Please show more of Veronica interacting with other pets 🐾🐾 I’m interested is learning about how I can better react and teach (not just separate) in situations where other people’s pets (dogs) aren’t the best behaved and it triggers my dog. In other words, I’d like to see how you teach Veronica to be sensitive like Inertia and not react to misbehavior.

    This channel is a gift. Huge THANK YOU for producing this amazing content and living by example for what be accomplished with patience and love.

  13. What I don’t like so much: Sometimes I want to get advise on a single thing that’s mentioned in the title, but the video takes a long time to get there. (I know, I could just watch an older video about the same topic, but I like watching the newest ones first.)
    What I like: Funnily enough that’s also what I love about this series: The “vlog” style of it all and that you take us along with you on your travel. ❤

    You can TOTALLY stop by our house! It’s quite a drive to Nicaragua, but certainly scenic! 😄

    What I would love to see more about: Dog communication and dog health

  14. So far you have been doing really well. I guess I’d love to see how you continue to work on Veronica’s barking. I’m getting a dog soon and if s/he is a barker I’ll need to nip that in the bud quickly. Also, um, “Should we stop by your house?” LOL Good one, Zak. People are weird. I suggest you dodge the proverbial bullet. Stick to videos and avoid personal visits.😆

  15. I love how patient you are with Veronica. I had two rescues arrive yesterday and one of them is really shut down. I’ve been patient and slow thanks to your videos. I’m going at his pace. After 24 hours he finally accepted food from my hand. It’s all baby steps. I love what you do.

  16. Tbh I like direct instruction video content. How to teach your dog how to fetch, go in a designated area, not to bite, etc. from beginning to end. So for someone like me, I like to see the process. That is probably why I really like your first-24hour with puppy videos. It gives direct strategies that are relatively easy to implement for anyone bringing home a puppy.

  17. I’ve been watching you for more than 12 years now. I remember your old frisbee videos with your dogs and getting a Border Collie because of them. I’m still learning from you and am getting a new puppy in a couple of weeks. One of my fears is having a very vocal dog, this series is helping me prepare to adress that problem if it were to come.
    Greetings from Mexico City,
    Alex.

  18. Some happy pups in nature shots on a free walk! I’m traveling vicariously through you and Bree and would love to see some of the National or state parks!

  19. I’d love to learn more about the body language of dogs, especially the more subtle signals that a dog sends before a situation escalates. My two year old dog is scared to go in the car and I feel I could have picked it up earlier and dealt with it before it became a big issue for her if I’d seen the signs. Another example would be picking up the early signs of a dog at the park that might get aggressive towards other dogs or when it’s best to put the ball away before there’s an ‘ownership’ dispute over it at the park. Thanks for all that you do!

  20. I would love to see more about training 2 dogs at the same time. My main problem at the moment is getting our 6 year old border collie to stay settled while I work with our 14 week old one. As soon as she hears me talk to the puppy she breaks her settle and does whatever I asked the puppy to do.
