My puppy is nearly potty trained. The biggest obstacle was getting her to use the bell to ask to go out. She started ringing the bell finally but now she does it CONSTANTLY. She doesn’t even have to potty, she does it immediately after coming inside. She loves outside and would be thrilled if I left her out forever. We walk and go to the beach for 1-3 hours everyday plus she gets lots of time with me sitting in the yard w her and outdoor fetch breaks every couple hours. She’s an Australian cattle dog mix so she’s very smart and energetic. Does anyone have advice on how to get her to not abuse the potty bell while still encouraging her to ask to go out??

Hey hey. I’m new puppy owner for the very first time, and had little fear towards doggo after get attacked by one. I’ve been wanting a dog for a while, and just experience the love everything and ect!

My puppy is 3 months old, and we are doing really good with training! We know leave it, stay, sit, and lay down. Sometimes I think he understands the hand motions more but it’s progress! He doesn’t like being locked of in crate awake but during night he does perfectly fine. He hasn’t really been alone yet cause my boyfriend works nights, and I work from home 3 times a week.he seems to always be relaxed when he with my boyfriend but once I get home or off work..

He’s OFF THE WALLS and excited of

course , he constantly bites either my pants, my hands everything. I try so hard to redirect him to toys-and he still goes after my hands. I’ve also tried doing time outs, where I leave the room few to give him some time to relax and realized biting makes fun stop. I know he’s teething and everything but he has gotten me good with those puppy teeth and causes some bleeding. And suggestions?! I just wanna get the mouthing under control. He also tries this when we have guest, and I just want teach him in the correct way

We’re doing counter conditioning, engage/disengage and I use “scatter” “find it” or “let’s go” as a diversion if needed

She is 6.5 months old it’s so tiring 😭 maybe I just need to be consistent.. she barks and growls at any person she see’s idk how far away I can get people where she’ll still take treats but gets small exposure

Hello yall,

Ive been trying to leash train my puppy ~12 weeks old. I've been having trouble getting my puppy used to the leash. Each time I put it on him, he does not like it and fights me for control. I imagine that, in fact, he does not like it and doesnt like the fact that he can't be in control with it. So my question would be what would be best to do here? Have patience? Any techniques?

Ive been rewarding him with behavior I like and he listens to those commands. He is already potty trained, and kennel trained. So I am not sure why I am having so mnay issues with leash training.

Any advice pls pls
