How to Train 2 Dogs at the Same Time
Sharing buttons:
do you have more than one dog to train
today I'm going to show you what you
need to do to get two dogs trained at
the same time click thumbs up make sure
you're subscribed to my channel and pick
up a copy of my book dog training
revolution and here's a tip get it
before you get a dog the audio book is
now available too if you've got two
puppies you've got to get twice as much
dog food for them the most logical way
to get your dog food to you is to have
it automatically shipped in whatever
time interval you prefer you can do this
in three steps choose your brand of dog
food how often you want to chip and
enter that 20 when you check out to
receive 20% off of your first automatic
shipment I'll have all the details in
the description today I've got Shelby
with me and her family got not just one
but two awesome Corgi puppies now Shelby
how have you been feeling about training
so far I can't I'm complaining now
Shelby I'm ready to get this training
session underway how about you yeah
ideally before getting more than one dog
you'll want to make sure that any
current dogs you have are really up to
speed on their training first I'll have
all the videos you need on that on my
youtube channel so perhaps you fell in
love with two great dogs or you couldn't
decide between two puppies or some other
reasons so you took home two dogs at the
same time let me be real with you you
can't teach two dogs effectively and
simultaneously that's because dogs don't
require walk to a teacher that isn't
completely focused on them and it's
impossible to give your undivided
attention to two dogs at the same time
understand that it is twice the work
when you've got two dogs now you've got
two major options you can either work
with each dog one-on-one and alternate
them accordingly or you can enlist the
help of someone else in the family don't
worry though if you follow the advice
I'm going to give you in this video
you'll be able to have both dogs
listening to you at the same time in no
time so Shelby what I'm thinking is that
we'll do a few different things today
I'd like to start off with a leash
training session that's going to do a
couple of things that will allow us to
get them a little bit fatigued and tired
it's a lot easier to teach a dog when
they've gotten some energy out also it
will allow us to build some
communication to sound good so I'm going
to work with Bailey on a leash walking
sessions I think it's really important
to be able to get your dog's attention
on you and one of the easiest ways to do
that
hold up a piece of meat just like that
and give them a reward like that now
look at Bailey Bailey is paying
attention to me and I'm walking there's
no tension on the leash he's not trying
to get through his sister over here he's
not trying to run away he's focused on
me in the first year of training you
want to use lots of treats to build
communication because there's a lot of
distractions at a place like a park like
this I've got a tension and I'm going to
go ahead and reward with tiny pieces of
Turkey here so what do you think so far
does that look good
Wow show me why don't you start by
having best you look at the tree by
holding it up to your eyes and now let's
try walking backwards a little bit just
kind of in a circle and all we're trying
to make sure of here is that she's
checking in with you say no I want to go
where you're going there you go perfect
yes the idea is to get her to pay
attention to you while moving while on a
leash in this outdoor exciting
distracting environment good work and
just keep going look at you you're a pro
now I'll tell you what why don't we see
if we can get them both paying attention
to us individually we're going to do
that together now okay look see a little
tougher too close together so we're
gonna give him some distance over here
over here let's see if we get them to
pass now yes hold it up to your eyes and
see if you can get her to go away from
me look at you now that was awesome
well here let me see something here I
just want to prove a point here I'd like
to work with both of them on sit at the
same time so let's say that you've got
two dogs two puppies in particular
you're trying to teach them how to sit
you can't focus on both of them at the
same time because if you're trying to
lure one into a sit you got one trying
to knock the other over there's no way
to keep sit like this in any meaningful
way and it's not to say you can't get
some results with them on sit but you're
just not going to get as effective
results if you're trying to take
shortcuts by teaching them both of the
same fun so Shelby I clearly need some
help here this just isn't working out
I'm going to work with Bailey on fit and
you work with Bessie on tips I'd like to
show you something called Lourdes
training here you see the nose we're
just going to move that treat right back
like that until they sit and then we're
going to say sit because normally we
don't want to just tell our dogs to sit
until we really feel that they
understand the concept think about her
nose like a magnet
and think about the treat like a magnet
if those magnets get too far away the
connection is kind of lost you know what
I think they're doing so well at this
point that we can now start to say sit
yeah good right yeah good job and see so
we have both dogs over here listening to
it yep yes we got this this is nothing
as your dog starts to reasonably
understand these things one on one then
you're in a position to say sit and have
them both listen to you simultaneously
shall we you are a natural dog trainer
you have so many talents that's amazing
we've gone over leash walking today
we've gone over how to teach them to sit
they even listen to us together another
vital skill is teaching our dogs how to
come to us when we call them I'm going
to encourage Bailey to come to me by
calling Bailey in a really enthusiastic
happy voice just kind of let him get
distracted for a minute Bailey I'm going
to make sounds coming a Bailey one good
dog
excellent job teaching your dog a basic
recall like that is just giving them an
excuse the reason to want to come to you
at call Bessie and a happy voice I see
happier thank you yes there you go good
job really good you're doing such a good
job I'm going to make it a little bit
harder now I've got this treat see how
exciting you can be that's me look at
that I had a treat right there at her
nose you were able to get her attention
off this amazing piece of meat and on to
you that's how you know that your
training is really off to a good start
since they're doing so well on coming to
us I tell you what let's call them to us
when they get distracted a bit and then
have them go into a set correct now put
her into a set well yes good job good
patience there
good timing everything was good about
that correct come on right but hey I
mean just at the beginning of this
lesson they were playing and being all
rambunctious and we couldn't get them to
listen to us and now we got them doing
all sorts of things just because we're
giving them the one-on-one attention
they need to really learn how do you
feel about today's lessons click thumbs
