zak i have a question , i'm moving out of my parents house in a short while to get my own place, i'm 21 and serious about getting a dog ( a puppie) However, I'll be out at least 9 hours a day , for work, and because i'll be living alone she/he will be unsupervised, Can i do something about any kind of behavior i don't want him/her to have while i'm away? I'm going to be giving him full attention at all time when i'm there , But i wont be there 24H/day , do you know were i'm getting at? Thanks !

@daphneisthebest How carefully did you watch the video? The answer is there - he's a BABY. Keep him with you, even as you go from room to room, like you would a infant human with no playpen. The cage he sleeps in should at least be in the same room you sleep in. Look up info on crate training for that. If a human baby cries, answering doesn't teach him to make that noise, he already does that. Answering it makes you the person he can rely on to help him grow.

Hi Zak, I had a very important question for you! I have an 8 week old Shetland Sheepdog and I’ve had him for a week now. He is a very happy puppy and a smart one too. However, he whines and cries a lot. If I leave the room and he’s stuck on the couch, he will start to cry because he’s alone. He is able to go into his cage himself but the moment I close the cage he goes NUTS. He cries, whines and even howels. I live in an apartment complex so I’m afraid for the noise he makes.
Thank you so much!

but still what if they are an adult and their chewing and you're giving them attention and they are still play biting and jumping (in a way you dont like: 80 pounds of pure lab flying towards your face)

I have a 3mnth old lab and I completely agree with you in saying that you must supervise your dog for the first year! It's hard work but I know from previous dogs that it's worth giving them all the efection, playing with them , teaching tricks but the most important thing I find is walking your dog! That is where I perfer Cesar Millans advice when it comes to disapline, and teaching them how to walk on a leash correctly!

100% agree. Be with your dog. Play with your dog, exercise with your dog. I have a border collie and she is AWESOME, because we are always together exploring our world.

Seriously, you are my favorite dog trainer! I love your view on dogs and dog training and you use COMMON SENSE which is rare these days. Creds for that! @-->-- I also noticed (as previous comment says) that you seem very happy in the video, and it makes me (and probably others aswell) happy for you and with you! :)

'jumping on you' is a dog behavior that is a normal one, but people may label it 'annoying' or 'not good'. It's a behavior that you want to put on cue ('jump' command) or minimize. It's not disobedience and it's not anything other than jumping.
So train the dog to sit... a sitting dog cannot jump.
A dog that jumps can be taught to walk on its hind legs or 'pogo' on its back legs. Redirect the jump into something acceptable.
" Train, don't complain..." is a motto in many training schools.
Please share why you go to bed at 730pm? Thanks
