#house training a dog

[trainingpuppies]

Certainly! Here are 10 tips on how to stop a dog from biting:

Teach Bite Inhibition: Puppies usually learn bite inhibition from their littermates, but if your dog missed this, teach it gently by letting the dog mouth your hand and then giving a high-pitched "ouch" when it bites too hard. This mimics how other dogs would react.

Socialize Your Dog: Proper socialization helps reduce fear-based biting. Introduce your dog to various people, animals, and environments from a young age.

Positive Reinforcement: Reward good behavior with treats, praise, and affection. This reinforces the idea that not biting brings positive results.

Provide Chew Toys: Dogs often bite out of boredom or teething. Offer appropriate chew toys to redirect their biting urges.

Be Consistent: Establish clear rules and boundaries. Everyone in the household should follow these rules consistently to avoid confusion for the dog.

Observe Triggers: Watch for situations or stimuli that trigger biting. If your dog reacts aggressively to specific situations, work on desensitization.

Train Basic Commands: Teach commands like "sit," "stay," and "leave it." This helps control your dog's behavior in various situations.

Use Time-Outs: If your dog bites during play, immediately stop playing and leave the room. This shows that biting results in the end of fun.

Seek Professional Help: If the biting behavior is severe or persistent, consult a professional dog trainer or behaviorist to address the issue.

Health Check: Sometimes, pain or discomfort can lead to biting. Regularly check your dog's health to rule out any underlying issues causing discomfort.

animated movies i think everyone should watch at least once in their life

1) into/ across the spiderverse

so beautiful. amazing story, full of emotion and color. very cool mixed animation style, combining 2D and 3D. insane use of color theory, and full of detail and depth. 11/10.

(netflix)

2) isle of dogs

another beautiful movie, obvs because it’s wes anderson. stop-motion. very emotional and funny at the same time. i legit cried.

(disney plus)

3) coraline

amazing movie. absolutely chilling. the mix of analog horror and horrific implications are amazing. another stopmotion.

(amazon prime, but i think you have to rent it)

4) puss in boots: the last wish

listen. you don’t have to watch any other puss in boots movies to like this one. you don’t even need to like puss in boots. another 2D and 3D animation mix, and it’s gorgeous. hilarious, and very, very good depictions of a lot of things (no spoilers). plenty of adult jokes packed in, too.

(netflix)

5) the house

honestly horrifying. three different storylines. very unclear ending and uncomfy all the way through. absolutely recommend, especially if you like don’t hug me, i’m scared. implications and deeper meaning in everything.

(netflix)

6) the how to train your dragon franchise

some of my favorite movies of all time, and my intro to fandom culture lol. gorgeous, hilarious, emotionally charged. look at that background art.

She stole my blankie and made herself extra cosy. I'm so proud, she's just like me fr.

#The beanie baby thrives on cuddles and mischief. Love that for her #I'm gonna use my remaining coin next months to sign us up for a socialising and training course! I need the socialising more than her tbh #She brings so much joy when it's hard to find that for myself #Dog sitting as well rn so the house is chaos and I'm exhausted but I'm glad to be doing something to make other ppls lives easier #And to make doggos feel loved #Pupdate #Sabine aka baby bean

i think the main difference in personality so far between puppy-stellina and puppy-kepler is that kep has a lot more patience.

that brings a lot of positive qualities: he has better emotional control and is less prone to tantrums and outbursts than stellina was (i.e. if i have to stop for 10 seconds on a walk to pick up poo, stellina would yelp and pull and cry at being asked to stop). it also means he has better focus and is more forgiving of repetition in training - he doesn't give up nearly as easily when frustrated. and things that may startle or scare him he's more willing to try again or overcome (e.g. he slipped on my stairs and hurt his foot and didn't want to go back up the stairs for a few days, but eventually started trying again. and when butters slaps him he yelps and backs off, but still thinks she's Super Fun and tries to make friends). so he's a bit more methodical in his thinking.

but it does also bring some negatives too: because he has patience, he does not give up once he's decided something. if stellina was overtired and i put her in a crate, she'd fuss for a minute then pretty quickly go "hm alright then" and go to sleep. if i do the same to kep, he fights it and fights it because he doesn't want to be asleep and that's that. he's much more difficult to redirect or distract, and i have to be a lot more mindful of managing him because once he's decided something is fun or tasty or whatever it takes a lot to dissuade him, and he'll go back to it at the first chance. he's very slow to learn boundaries as a result - i have to do a lot more convincing than i'm used to.

they are still overall very similar personalities, especially as they're the same breed and from very similar lines, but i think so far this has been the biggest quality that i've needed to adjust to. puppy-stellina i had to do a lot of mental adjustments learning how to manage her short emotional threshold and sensitivity, so it's interesting to see what does and doesn't translate over to kep.

#i hesitate to use the word 'stubborn' for kep bc i truly dont think its willful 'oh youve told me no but i will do it anyway' #he just genuinely doesnt get the concept of 'please dont do that' #'dont do thing? but thing is fun. thing is for kep. kep will do. fun!' #the concept of 'i am not allowed to do this' or 'i should not do this' has never occured to him #like with house training: he knows that he gets praise and treats for going outside. he knows that this doesnt happen if he goes inside. #but the concept of 'i have to poop and am inside therefore i should instead go outside' hasnt clicked yet bc he will just always take- #-the first option (poop now) #same thing with sleeping (i do not want to sleep therefore i will Not) and biting stellina etc #its not bad! as mentioned theres a lot of positives it brings too. i just need to learn how to speak his specific language #and when youre bad at dog training it just takes a while lol

Bless this tiny creature and her adaptability.

#also bless all of the training we've done #I'm not super mobile rn so our 'training' today was just asking her to do distance behaviours with verbal cues as I sat on the couch #it took me twelve years to make it out of the building (3rd floor walkup ✌) and pig did the most obnoxious heeling #she made it very clear she was there AND she was paying so much attention #she was ready to do so many behaviours #unfortunately those behaviours were walking a snails pace for 1/4 of a block #but hey #I made it out of the house and pichael didn't attempt to kill me on the stairs #also!!! baby dog got her champion certificate she's official #turnpike

I prefer the country, but this city view is nothing to complain about!

#it's a busy week because I am really getting going setting up my own dog training business! #it will be simple where I just go to people's houses #but I've already had some lovely clients #and there are some amazing experienced trainings i know who are getting me more referrals so things are looking promising 🤞 #tristan #smooth collie

Progress with backing up + some position changes at a distance!

#no sound #dogblr #dogs of tumblr #australian shepherd #dog training #2 years #this is pretty close to the end result that i'm looking for :)) #but now we need to practice in different places #kaija backs up beautifully in the house but even just the yard was much harder for her #so she was a little bit hesitant #still - she did great and i'm very happy with how much she's improved!!!

Doggy DNA test results are back, and baby Cody is none of the breeds anyone thought he was.

he is…

*drumroll*

Quarter Cocker Spaniel (cute and fluffy yay! Guess that’s where his slightly curly tail hair comes from)

Quarter XL Bully/Pit-and-mix (the UK’s answer to the banned pitbull that just also got banned)

and Half Belgian Malinois (German Shepherd on Hard Mode)

😬🥲 Pray for him, and us lol

Though the people we used also give you relative links, and there’s a dog which has low genetic match but high breed match (so they’re not directly related but their root breeds are very similar) and damn true. Roch even does the ear thing.

#rescue pup #he’s still way too scared of the outside #is pretty damn good for a puppy inside the home #but he’s scared of and panic barks at anything so easily outside #not a surprise now - that’s a lot of guard dog in him #and the problem is he’s triggered from ok to overflowing #in about a second #no steps between 30%-99% #he’s /used/ to panicking if that makes sense #his brain knows those pathways well so defaults to them #like a human with a panic disorder #but unlike a human he can’t do talking therapy #(we’d probably be fine if our road wasn’t so travelled) #(and our garden connected straight to the house) #(rather than going out and then down an alleyway to it) #(but we’ve got what we’ve got) #(so trial and error and training methods with his behaviourist)

Mandana recalled from the fence with two large dogs barking in her face. She hesitated but didn’t sass back to them at all so she got a slice of pizza as a jackpot 🍕🥰
