I am going to be training my own service dog and I am new at it so I LOVE these videos, please keep them up!!

[ariesambully]

I have been waiting for an upload from you. Had a feeling it would be something like this, and was not disappointed. Storm is such a good girl.

I used to sit outside businesses (away from door to be polite to the business and their customers) because of all the noise, people traffic and cars. I am glad you spoke about allowing strangers to pet. I didn’t do that with my dog at first so I had to unteach then re-do the stranger desensitization to a point for touching and taking food from strangers - in case, I ever have to go to the hospital and someone else looked after my dog.

This is very helpful with this. I just got a Shepsky and I'm glad to see I've started off right with her training. Thank you for the video. This is very helpful and easy to follow along to

I know I’m super late but thank you so much for this. I adopted an 8-week-old German Shepherd/Husky girl I named Remi about a month ago and have some questions. I was wondering what you thought about a pup being so relaxed in public that they would rather fall asleep than walk around. Likewise, she is so good at avoiding distractions like other dogs and people in favor of focusing on me. I don’t want to lose that focus but also want her to know that people in public are okay to greet like she does when we have visitors (and she greets sweetly with maybe a kiss and pat on the head but doesn’t jump and go nuts like regular puppies). A bit of a back story: I had the opportunity to temperament test the litter at 6 weeks because one of the rescue’s top people was my other dog’s foster mom. Remi’s litter was born in a home the night her emancipated momma was brought up to the foster home from a shelter in the Carolinas, so she didn’t have the Trauma that my boy Krieger did. I unfortunately fell and broke my femur the day after choosing Remi, so spent the next 25 days in the hospital. I was still in the hospital the first 10 days she was home, but my mom took that as an opportunity to crate train, potty train, begin the basics, etc (she’s a former dog trainer). When I came home, I pushed through the pain to reinforce her sit and then teach down, paw, lap, off, and wait. Her come and stay are still a work in progress. But I’m getting MAJOR flack from some for bringing her in public despite her being a little under 13 weeks old. She got vaccinated and cleared by the vet to go in public last week, so we went to Lowe’s on Monday where she happily looked around at the sight and sounds but was most content to lay next to my wheelchair and nap. Likewise I had an appointment at the prosthetist yesterday to work on getting a new leg (I lost my leg to a nerve condition about 18 months ago and then lost more this March). She layer quietly in the waiting room on a towel that we brought while I treated and gave extra rewards for ignoring loud noises, loud doors, etc. She then slept on her towel in the room we were in the majority of the hour-long appointment. My mom held her leash, but she made no attempt to get up even when I moved away from her to try out my “check socket.” My prosthetist tried to greet her without my permission, but I let it go, and she did her normal kiss and pat on the head greet. However, I think she needs more exposure to people. Some say not to let others greet or treat her in public while others say to do so. I had planned to train Krieger to be a SD, but my health declined early on in his training, and while he is super smart and obedient, I never got to the point of bringing him in public. So this is my first time really training what will hopefully be my future mobility service dog (she’s expected to be around 90 lbs). I’m sorry for writing a novel. It’s just that most people in self-train “support groups” tend to tear you down rather than build you up, and you seem super nice.

Thx for the intro! So important not to compare your dogs progress w/anyone else & bonding is key!🐾

[lunaarc]

Yeah. I would love to see these month long training video's. This will definitely help me when I get my puppy!

[wanderousoak]

Do you have any advice on owner-training? I’ve talked to most of my family about getting a service dog, but I found it way cheaper to get a puppy and owner-train it.

[sgmwoof]

why is your username VisualMoss ? 🤔 just curious.

[Mp.bunni]

I just got my new prospect, she's 2 months old. She's a Yorkipoo :)

[sparrii]

[demidragon]

[sydneymochacomingbacksoon]

This very helpful, because I felt and still feel like alone like I am the only one training my dog at 2 years old and I couldn't when he was a baby at the time was just I wasn't diagnosed yet and nobody knew the real problem/ not going diagnosis a girl also he was a skittish dog at the time. So I really do appreciate this video it's nice

[vvalle]

Can’t wait to see your next beautiful video in training with this beautiful German Shepherd:)
