Do you know how she dies in the daycare enviroment? Do they provide a report of how she does at the daycare? Remember, not all dogs benefit from the daycare and not all daycares are good for dogs.

The hand signal for sit and lie down are very different. Using the right hand signals combining them with the verbal cues make a big difference. I explain and show how to teach the "Lie Down" command in this video: ruclips.net/video/a-63ZeIqwkY/видео.htmlsi=f184diNpU7aCHd56

I'd like to conduct that experiment and film it. I will try to make it happen. Thanks for the idea.

@@SaroDogTraining to be fair though, the dogs mind would probably think like, "I'll get the treat now and then the owner" because a dog doesn't know its one or the other.

Thank you for the feedback and suggestion! The primary reason I don't often use other dogs in my videos is that dogs typically respond best to their owners. Training is a collaborative effort between a dog and its owner. Imagine being asked to discipline a stranger's child. You'd probably feel uncomfortable, the child might not feel safe with you, and the parents could be upset. Similarly, in dog training, the bond and understanding between the dog and its owner are crucial. Owners need to learn how to train their own dogs, as the relationship and communication between them are what make training effective. However, I appreciate your suggestion and will look into incorporating other dogs in my videos in a way that respects this dynamic.

Okay, you answered my question in the video.

Hand signals are an addition to provide clarity in the training and your communication with your dog. It is a good idea to add or use hand signals.

Thank you. She does bring the ball right to me. I will show that in future videos.

I don't see it either. Please comment again.

So, he has been with you for almost a year. The marking in the corridor is a conversation with you that he wants you to know to help him regarding his mental state. He is leaving messages to you saying that he needs help. He feels insecure and not confidante about his life. You are probleble sharing too much affection and not much guidance and directions. You need to somehow provide him his daily required exercise which is physical stimulation, plus his daily mental stimulation with some one on one play and train, his daily socializations, care and then affection. Do your best based on limitations and abilities to fulfill his needs. Regarding chasing possums, simply take him out (during the day) on a leash or attached to a rope so you can get him back plus it gives him some assurance that he is connected to you.

That is great but follow the steps in this video which I explain what to do as soon as you bring a new rescue dog home: ruclips.net/video/lciImRFwQgM/видео.htmlsi=sBUrPtrbBFzPDf7X

Good luck finding something that works. Wish you all the best and success.

The best advice that I can offer at this situation is to keep your dog under control, on leash or in a crate while you can't supervise it. Start training him to build trust and confidence and after few weeks of that see if he changes his behaviour.

It is stress related which causes confusion in dogs especially after being adopted and since you have adopted 2 dogs, they are stressing each other and that causes behaviours such as this. Limit the freedom that you provide for your newly adopted dogs and follow the instruction in the following video lesson: ruclips.net/video/lciImRFwQgM/видео.htmlsi=lnHnoVisx8-woOHM

@@SaroDogTraining these dogs came from the same home and are bonded. That’s why I took both. I was actually looking to just have one.

@@SaroDogTraining I watched the video and have already had the dogs a week. My place is very small so I feel that for the most part, I have done what you advise. Now the bed wetter is barking non stop. Is there anything I can do? My nerves are on end.😞

That is kind of normal. The dog is as stressed as you are and that's why is barking. There isn't just one thing that you need to do but you need to at least provide 5 things which I explain here: ruclips.net/video/7PLTj5zNSVw/видео.htmlsi=evv6Rcc1oVooHr6l

Thank you for the feedback. My job is done!

I feel you and your struggles. I know it can feel impossible but I share some additional information in the following video so pay attention and follow the tips for success. Good luck! ruclips.net/video/OPpOOFkda5k/видео.htmlsi=baTb3MtAfRjrz2yf

@@SaroDogTraining Yes its starting to feel impossible, after this long. They just don't understand. They may have to be outside dogs, unfortunately. I'll watch the video and try some other things. We've given them access to the front door when they are not in the crate. Maybe that will help. They roam to much to not watch them when out of that crate. Thank you, sir.

Based on the information that you have shared, it seems that your dog is dealing with some stress related behaviours which are common in rescue dogs. Your dog is expressing the stress feelings with you and wishes that you would help it to deal and cope with stress by providing it's daily five essential needs. I explain them here: ruclips.net/video/2bVyNOnaCJ0/видео.htmlsi=2gf8f2_0ABvtKvoI

Glad it was helpful!

Glad it helped. Thank you for watching.

Very funny!

You can do it.

Focus on changing the mental state of your dog and you will have better results.

You can do it!

I am guessing that you just adopted your dog so that could be the reason why its peeing in the bed. It's stressed and confused and is communicating to you its feelings. Focus on providing its needs to help it to destress. I explain more in this video: ruclips.net/video/lciImRFwQgM/видео.htmlsi=iFnmUZoaqwhTZnDR

@@SaroDogTraining Appreciate your thought, but I've had her since February & she's a barrel of monkeys otherwise. I'm self employed & take her her to work with me, I socialise her & we take daily hikes together. She's super happy & chill under all other circumstances, but just does this one thing where when I leAst expect it (it doesn't happen a lot) she'll sneak upstairs & do that. I noticed that she pee'd in a client's house the other day on the floor when we got there and I couldn't believe it, but saw it & took care of it (tile floor). I dunno, it's so weird because we communicate and have a good time at all other times, and then boom, out of nowhere every once in awhile.

I understand that it feels that you are communicating well and everything seems normal but you had her for only 6 months now and she had a different life before so there are many factors that you are not aware of but it seems normal. You don't change a dog's life within 6 months unless you are a professional dog trainer. So, understand that your dog is communicating her feelings by peeing here and there expressing her feelings.

@@SaroDogTraining What do you think the feelings would be? Important to know that she has a wonderful, sweet disposition and we engage constantly. She's the most cheerful little girl and I love her so, but that shock every so often of finding that when I KNOW she's been outside more than we're inside, is just so disheartening.🥲 I do know that the previous owner was a girl in her 20s who bred her (grrr....) and gave her to a woman who had two other little dogs who were fighting with her. That's how I ended up taking her. A friend of mine had heard about a chihuahua that had been given to someone who couldn't keep her bc of the dog fighting situation. I don't get the sense that it was abusive, but it does sound like her life may have sadly involved chaos. Her life here is peaceful, playful and super affectionate. Thx for your thoughts on this!

What I suggest for start as you have just adopted the dog, try to build some connection , bond and trust before you start training it. Start by simple games and playing games that the dog loves. Try to get to know it. Likes and dislikes. Good things and the bad things of the dog. Once you have developed a light foundation then start playing and including some training in there by teaching the sit and stay and come commands. You can start learning it here: ruclips.net/video/2CvtFcNJTuM/видео.htmlsi=ijLJoj0-BlyaR7M2

Most definitely works with dogs that have been semi-trained or trained but some dogs they still insist on a unwanted behaviour because they either focus on the subject and don't listen to the cues so this is a great way to redirect them instead of getting physical with the dog and punish the dogs that way.

Awesome, glad I could help!

Thank you and welcome to the community. Feel free to engage and ask questions.

You never know who will be at the park with what kind of dog and mindset.

Training, including to provide their daily five essential needs will help them to gain more confidence and pay more attention to you and your cues rather than getting distracted by what is out there. They are simply to focused on the smells rather than being focused on you.

Don't look at it from negative point of view. Look at it as you are investing time and energy into your dog and spending quality time with your dog which will benefit you and your dog's relationship and life in future.

Thank you. Tip noted.

Training an older dog to use indoor wee pads can take time and patience, but consistency is key!

@@SaroDogTraining I know that, but how do I do it? He's trained to go outside but will not go out when it's raining so I want to know how to train him to go indoors too, but don't know how. He's 14 and in perfect health.

It would be really hard to train a 14 year old to start peeing indoors as it has become a natural habit for him. Unless he is having accidents then you can make him wear diapers. Otherwise, as humans we can't force dogs to do things that are not natural. It also depends on your breed, personality and willing to change. So, I would just take him outside with an umbrella or somthing to let him pee outside rather than stressing yourself for something that is not realistic.
