Is a training session + cookies instead of a meal? My baby Boston/Pug will be home before Thanksgiving.
Your videos are amazing! I got a puppy about a month ago and have no idea what I'm doing. I had a Shih Tzu for 13 years that I was fortunate enough to rescue when he was 2 y/o and he passed away several months ago leaving us heartbroken. Now got lucky enough to rescue another Shih Tzu who is a puppy and I need help. Thank goodness I found your videos! Thank you!! Are you still podcasting new episodes? I'm working my way through what you have posted here.
Where did you get the cool rubberized floor tiles? Would be great for my puppy area i think.
Great training ideas.
How does he know his names archer and not cookie?
This is a great video. I have watched videos from trainers across the world wide web over the past few days. Many trainers use force or fear – or worse, electroshock. Others are more excited than the puppy and never get the puppy calm. You are the first that makes me think I can train our puppy (when we get it next spring) and that we can do it while preserving the dog's self-confidence and with love. I'm still not an expert, having watched a bunch of YouTube videos, but you have given me confidence and hope for success. Thank you.

arch has moved past me with break!
awesome video and ideas! Thanks!
I think I broke my new puppy on the fourth day. Your resources are amazing and I have signed up for crate games and I'm watching my way through your puppy playlist on Youtube.
He played the first three puppy games really well yesterday.
Today I started him on a puppy schedule as per your suggestion. For the first time I leashed him to potty (grass pad, condo) and re-created him twice for 10 minutes since he didn't poop. Finally thought maybe he won't poop until he moves around.
So I started with the puppy games again. He may have learned the one about "this place is awesome" (his bed), because today I can't play the games because he is afraid to leave his bed. I finally sat beside him and left a training treat trail, which got him to leave his bed for short period. When I moved the bed out of play, he hid behind me. I've done something in trying to train him that has broken his confidence, which is horrible. He was a super happy and confident puppy until now.
Any advice?
What are the best puppy treats?
I now know about the cycle sleep > out > training/food > out > alone time > out > sleep and watched some of the puppy podcasts. So far I haven't come across enrichment during alone time. Is this (enrichment) something Susan reccomends for a puppy? Or maybe enrichment should always be incorperated in training somehow? With enrichment I mean stuff that can be thrown into a playpen inside or outside for the puppy to be busy with (under minimal supervision). For example a whole cabbage, a pool filled with balls, a box filled with straw, a tub filled with smelly items from outside (rocks, wood, etc.), a snuffle mat, a filled kong etc. If there are any videos on enrichment suitable for puppy's, that'd be perfect.
This is great! I love the emphasis on choice as the learning moment – and also the observation that it takes more thought. I wonder whether calling his name in the “I love this place!” game could be confusing for him? When we call a dog’s name, we generally want him to come to us, but in the progression we move further away from the bed, and we are asking him to go to a special place instead. I wonder whether using something like “Settle!” or “Bed!” etc., works better in this game?
WOW, so simple!
Thank you so much
I AM TOTALLY COMMITTED!
Ugh… what If I’ve been doing everything wrong… for the last 5 weeks? 😩🤦♀️😢
What is your recipe for homemade cookies?
Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant!!! I've been binge watching your podcast videos for nearly a week. Amazing! Thanks so very much ❤
My puppy is going on 5 weeks old . Is okay to start that
When playing IYC you use the word cookie. Is it the same as saying "yes" instead of clicker? My dog already knows "yes"
I'm committed. I have 8 puppies. They are Pyrenees and I need to learn what to do. They are 7 weeks old and had their first shots 5 days ago.
I currently have 6 puppies at home that are looking for new homes, in the meantime I want them to start training so they have good habits for future owners and so they are good for me too… should I be trying to train them individually?
i love your videos but why does my dog cry soooooo much
I would love & appreciate a tutorial on perch work- thank you!!!
Do you ever use "treat and train" units in your training? Perhaps to start rewarding away from yourself.
How do you indicate that the games are over so you can get things done? My older pup is busy and loves engaging in games, but is at the age where his endurance is longer and if there aren’t any games going on or when they end he is looking for stuff to do. I guess the question is, how to switch to management mode where he isn’t frustrated by confinement?
Bones, stuffed Kongs, puzzle toys and such keep him busy just so long, and then he’s fussing and wants out. I never let him out on demand but once he’s out I’m either a slave to playing games or he’s back to investigating and usually getting in trouble 😮
Only way to get my dog to do anything is with chopped up meatballs and how he won't eat his kibble 😵💫
Thank you for showing this. It makes a lot of sence seeing it in action. Also can you share you cookie recipe?
Such great advice, my puppy arrives in 5 sleeps !!
I love you Susan ❤ your advice & help is invaluable 😊
I’m binge watching your videos as I just brought my 8 week old standard poodle puppy home. I’ve had dogs all of my 67 years, but I’m learning so much. Josie is very smart and really enjoys using her brain with these games. Thank you for all you do for dogs and their humans! ❤
So no command for getting in the bed? For us that’s a “place” command. Is using “place” command counterproductive in this game?
I’ve been binge watching your videos after I stumbled across your channel and didn’t think your videos could get any better… until that Seinfeld reference. Much love and many thanks for all of your knowledge.
I really love your videos! Thank you!!
Susan, I have 3 brothers 1 year old , should I start here even if not puppies?
I love you enthusiasm and clarity
