How To Train Your Puppy! (With Cesar Millan)

There you have it, it was a good wait, remember the stress, respect the love, so you have to trust that he can figure it out and he has to respect what you are asking them to do, which is to stay at the baseline and no matter how many distractions. They are out there, so this is a new

puppy

, this is the first time he does it, so there is a lot of waiting in the middle, there you do it, you work it again and that is the end of that exercise that emphasizes respect to the gloves, okay, guys.

We will do three activities that will mean something natural, simple and profound, so the reference point will represent trust, respect, love, walking with

your

dog will represent following, playing, exploring and the box will represent safe peace and love, so I. I always like to make sure the dog has a thorough understanding of the activities we do. Reference point means stress, respect, love. Walking with

your

dog means playing the explorer game and putting a dog in the crate or using the crate means safe peace and love, that's exactly it. the feeling, the energy that a dog needs to have, so the right energy, the right philosophy, the right activities, well, every time we do it, we ask Angela, from the servant dogs, to make it for Instagram, which for Please bring us some puppies, some dogs, some dogs that can challenge. students, so where do you get these dogs?

Many of them come from my house. I adopt many of them and then call them my friends because they all have many adoptive homes. Yes, where do these puppies come from? These puppies are. Coming from Long Beach, Long Beach, Long Beach, like a shelter or what not, her mother was found as a stray walking around, so my friend took her in and then ended up having the puppies that night at her house and there in adoption, yeah, okay. So all the dogs that we work on at TCW for the students, all of these dogs are up for adoption.

The best thing about this is that the dogs can meet 30 or 40 people, whichever is the most we have here, so everyone can practice the same thing. the puppies and that allows the puppies to connect have great communication trust respect love with people so what we do is how we tell people that this dog is the back of the pack, in the middle of the pack of the pack, so when it's time to adopt the dog, we actually create what I call compatibility and then we can give you the strategy of what to do with this

puppy

, so what we'll do now is show you the three most important ones. things to do with your puppy as soon as he gets home yeah, okay, so this is the baseline.

I like to use crates because it allows the dog to not, what's the word? Let the dogs understand that. there's a little cliff right in the middle with the floor in it so it actually teaches them to wait a little bit easier that it's a lot easier to do it in a box and then practice it on the floor. This guy's amazing video. That video. I have it. That's what I mean it's easier for them to stay so you're practically teaching the dog to stay and in that spot so the cliff helps them have a boundary you got it Peter yeah don't be afraid to use it. a leash, uh, on a puppy, this just gives you access, they don't go too far and the goal is just to learn to trust and respect boundaries, love is the energy you're using and having fun, the food you're using, there you go. have.

Bam, you pay for that, so they have to understand that if they practice what I call calm surrender, they will be fed and then that box becomes a reference point where they practice trust, respect and love, and then they continue with their own once, once you practice a little more, they just go on that benchmark and you can use it to practice obedience, so what I'm doing now I'm just taking a little more distance shhh, so I'm going to get out of that box as soon as he sits down and relaxes, that's a jump, then I'll give him, I'll give him food and then I'll take him off the set point, there you have it.

It was a good wait, remember the stress, respect the love, so you have to trust that he can figure it out and he has to respect what you are asking them to do, which is to stay at the reference point and no matter how many distractions are around . He is a new puppy, this is the first time he does it, so there is a lot of waiting in the middle, there you do it, you reward him and that is the end of that exercise which is to trust, respect, love, so you will end up waiting a lot with puppies so you'll end up doing a lot of repetitions, you can't lose patience with them and even if there is a lot of destruction it's actually better because that's exactly how they were learning in their natural habitat.

You know that brothers and sisters have to be present and mother nature is present so that they do not hide to learn, they are actually exposed to learn, that is why I say natural, simple and profound when you teach a puppy and this is the first time. he's doing it, they have no idea what you're asking so it has to be a matter of trust and trusting the puppy to figure it out and the puppy has to respect your guidance, that's where you gain confidence and play such a big role. . role and once they do it which we wait uh you know a period of time you saw that he gave himself to the activity and that's when you give him love food or affection in this case I gave him both food and affection and then the beautiful thing is you choose to the puppy that is more outgoing at that moment and then the rest look at you, so now because you are not teaching everyone else, the others do not look at you, look, the reference point becomes a place to trust, respect and love, then they go and touch it so that they can practice trust, respect, love, reference point.

You can always use it as a dog show time, just to make the pup feel good because we're about to start step two, which is taking a dog for a walk that would allow a dog to practice continue playing explore a point of reference is a good starting point, it allows them to understand the rules about their limitations, safety, peace and love, then the food is placed there, it allows you to use the language more than anything. so I'm getting excited look this is the easiest way to put a leash on a bobby look at the reach like a gold medal do it a few times go back to what he knows there you go do the loop beforehand put the loop on boom he comes and you put the leash on him, let him feel it, associate it with the same activities you did before, sitting, feeling proud that your knee hasn't been left yet, so relax, so here I'm going to pay for the relaxation, but just wait a little of the exercise. what you have to do is wait a little bit there you have that super super important little moment okay let's do it again food in your hand close it make a little tunnel put it on your nose it's almost like peanut butter this is what sometimes kongs really are useful for puppies or dogs, then show the nose, eyes, ears, adjust the leash as you have been doing it for a long time.

I understand being careful, but when you're too careful, you actually provoke, not provide nervous energy, so just deal with it. Like I've done it a million times, okay, that's what you have to practice first so you have the ability and practice to adapt as you go, look how beautiful the tail feels, good boy, so at the same time At first no, I don't. I want him to jump so I'm going to take him away from the landmark so he knows the only way he can get out is when the human pulls him out, don't pull the leash just move the leash. if he stops and just to keep it in with a look that doesn't zigzag, this is his first time, then he's a horse on that side, you let him, you let him experience it at a distance, proximities, that's how they experience the world at a distance, you.

I'm going to adjust the strap again. I'll go back to where he was before. Check it. Look. Don't pull the leash but continue the movement. They don't follow the pull. So I'm introducing a slowdown. Stay forward. so I'm controlling the exploration the fact that he looked at me I'm going to reward that moment I'm going to embrace that moment I'm going to make him feel safe I'm going to make him feel part of my pack because he's following me so I want him to be part of my pack I want to reward good behavior. I want to bring joy to love and then go back and do it again.

Don't worry. Trusted. Wait for the right moment. Look, no tension. the reason puppies first resist the leash because people would pull instead of just walking in front and that, my friends, is how you start teaching a puppy to be on a leash so he can make a simple and profound natural activity that we call a fallow play explorer, see you next time, okay, so step three, connect with a puppy, help him adjust to you, the environment and how he's going to learn with you and in your house, so that we have a reference point that is extremely useful, we have the walk that allows the connection of going out and then once you return home, that is the time when you practice the cages.

Good crates are great because a dog needs to practice fighting body movements, he needs to stretch and walk. He runs and then rests before sleeping, so to me a crate is a place where a dog can extend the amount of time when he goes into a resting state. This is where you can see when people go into meditation mode or retreat mode. or a silent mode yoga mode which is the equivalent of a crate so my son after a good walk is ready for crate practice so never put a good dog in the crate if he hasn't exercised yet and mental stimulation, so the cage is going to represent safe peace and love, okay, so for that you need the brain to be in total calm and surrender so that the puppy does not go into a fight flight or avoid feeling that he is caught, okay, ready, okay, so here's why. the reference point is very useful, you know, especially with the box that I like.

Now I'm going to help you associate the reference point with the box. He's never been in the box, but he's been in the benchmark now, don't let them. get out of the cage, yes, surrender before he gets out of the cage and here is the waiting game, don't look at the puppy, just wait for the calm surrender, remember we want the cage to represent the highest level of relaxation we want . to feel a place where they feel safe, peace and love and we want the cage to represent the state of rest, so now it's a state of alert, so it's just a waiting game right now, bam, then you pay, then you invite the puppy out again. and then you make him go a little further because it's a game, get him a little excited here, remember this is the first time he's going in, he can be carefree if he goes out, he needs to learn to surrender, okay? so never close the door when the brain is still excited or unconcerned because then they will feel trapped now we will close the door after it calms down, give up one, two, three seconds in that state, even more, that was a big one, no I was expecting it so we paid and then we took the puppy out sorry sorry we took the puppy out you got distracted don't do anything if he gets a little nervous send them back to the nose so at this point he has to realize that nothing bad is happening there, that's part of the security and peace right now, he just has to be fed by me or anyone in the room, nothing bad is happening there, so he got distracted, but at the same time that he got scared so this touch is not to give him affection or hug him what it is is just to help him recover you can see it on his face he says he is still a little unsure right now if even if I take him or do it with the leash, that's not good for him, he's a little like in shock, so I want to take the shock away with something that smells bad, okay, okay, play again, okay, oh, still, eh, no, one Maybe it smells a little. more powerful it will move them look also food has an expiration day like certain smells have an expiration time okay, okay, we get it back, we get it back, but there is nothing here, come back, this is also a teachable moment separation. separation anxiety or not, this is a time where you can start teaching them separation so they don't develop separation anxiety because a big mistake people make with puppies is not leaving them alone which is unrealistic because that puppy will grow very fast when he is a puppy. stages again from birth to eight months, so that is the shortest stage in the dog's life and that is when most people unconsciously lie to the dog's reality.

The reality of the dog is that the human will leave once at a time to go to work. going to school to visit family or some places just don't allow dogs, so if a puppy doesn't start to understand that the human will be separated from them from the moment you get him, that puppy will develop who he is. It's called separation anxiety, so right now separation is, there you go, then we close the door, we aska few seconds, nothing hard, nothing strong, so from the few seconds we were before now we are going to wait 10 seconds and that my friends, this is how you teach a puppy to go to the reference point, this is how you teach him to a puppy to walk on a leash and this is how you teach your puppy to go in a crate all in one day guys I hope you enjoyed the video be sure to like, subscribe and comment and join me on my mission for better humans, a better planet.
