hello again welcome back to the doghouse
channel maybe you do already know my
name is Jessica and this is Lila so she
is our week old Boston Terrier puppy
that we just recently added to the pack
we've had her for exactly seven days now
so that makes her almost nine weeks old
which I just realized only thing that
I've been doing with her since we got
her is just kind of working on building
a bond with myself and with the dogs in
the house she has been doing really well
in the house as far as just being a
really good puppy the one thing I did
want to go over is showing how to teach
a crazy new little puppy how to sit one
thing I did do is she has already been
up for the day she's already used the
bathroom she's had breakfast and lunch
she had a nap time she's also after
lunch she had some more time to run
around it's not quite nap time again yet
although she feels like she's getting a
little lethargic they don't last very
long when they're this young I'm going
to use that as the prime time to teach
her something new she's very crazy when
she gets that burst of little energy and
she has zero focus so that's just
typical a little Boston Terrier puppy
the one thing I wanted to share too is
I'm going to start her with some we're
starting Marek I started grandmas
America dog puppy food and so I grabbed
some of the training treats as well
they're made of rabbit and sweet potato
and it's very stinky and very motivating
this is something I posted on Instagram
as well what I wanted to she is so tiny
and I didn't want to like upset her
stomach at all or anything just by
starting training so I started to
crumble a little bit of this treats in
her food at each feeding so her system
had some time to get used to it I am
we'll see how it goes all right one
thing I did do that I want to show you
is that these treats that big so
obviously way too big for a teeny tiny
puppy mouth honestly I feel like these
are even going to be a little too big
for her I tried to cut them as small as
possible you just want them to taste
almost the treat not
Sara Lee they have to sit there and chew
so it kind of helps it or it kind of
doesn't help you know keep focused they
end up losing the focus so I'm actually
gonna just continue to kind of bring
these in half a little bit and just
continue as long as they break easily
not Chrome too much that'll be
interesting to figure out what trace
work for teeny-tiny Buffy mouths okay we
got our puppy here this is basically
what she now knows I have a treat she's
very interested I'm not even going to
use a word the only word that I've
actually really introduced to this puppy
so far in the last seven days has been
my left has been her name so I'm not
even going to say any campaigns I'm just
going to yeah girl I was actually really
surprised she did it that fast she
normally is a jumping bean for
everything I'm not gonna do anything
except wait and I am just associating
there good girl and let it whoops I'm
gonna let her associate eventually is
that her accident
is what I want and eventually she's
going to associate her but on the ground
getting a treat so good girl I'm not
even gonna add a command what a good
girl and she's deep anything we're gonna
give her another one what we're gonna
make really annoying noises is for their
voice puppies love puppy parties wait
here wow she's like I was almost like
her giving it to me so she kind of got
that part holy moly you're smart come
here you you had an eight oh hey but a
big brain is it all Brady good girl good
girl hey
what a good girl I'm like I'm letting
her just like lick it and then that's a
tree okay so as you can see I mean I'm
just I'm not doing this that's just rude
I'm not doing this and trying to get her
just put her butt in the ground I'm
visit there he and she it's I'm keeping
it right at her good girl
to where she almost has to just sit down
she goes to like jump up just a bit good
girl good girl just stayed innocent
that's a good position this is just the
I mean this is day one she's never done
this I've never even given her treat
she's only got her meals she's not so
about um usually like this and because
see good girl I had it a little higher
shake she was jumping up which is not
what we wanted and then of course this
is always good to get them interested a
little luring oh that was good good girl
probably an accident but guess what
everything is going to be an accident
you just have to make sure you catch the
good accidents and intrigue them for
good girl should I keep it right in her
face at the perfect distance to where
she's not able to jump up like this
that's too high and she doesn't get it
yeah eventually you start to you do
start to raise it good girl
Lila no good girl
I don't really want to front feet up so
we're gonna not correct her but just
kind of read reshape it right hey hey
hey now let's try let's try oh girl
dear Ally the cat is meowing at me for
no reason
shitty what what you need treats I
should with no board look now we have a
distraction and so I'm also her puppies
had pretty much no attention span so
allowing them to kind of have a second
to themselves not bad either
just she doesn't get bored what I was
doing
alright husky collar look at the pretty
kitty
[Music]
she needs insurance yes she's that but I
was I was too distracted by the kitty
well good girl good girl good girl good
girl

and we treat I like that she stays in
the sit while she eats it's huge oh
that's bad
lord it's gonna be a lot of this is just
game time right now
[Music]
now I'm just being a good girl pushing
the boundaries to see what I can get her
to do can you what did you girl it was
an accident but it look good today
yeah well try to get her to get up got a
motion I learned of said is it's just
physically standing and then sitting do
a little teacher whoops whoa come here
stay in damn you yeah yeah good girl
she's also gonna figure out that jumping
off those and give you treats be cute
does that look girly give you that big
girl
merrily give you our correction sounder
word it's more of them just maybe
distracting her from the treat my hand

girl and this is that hole in the end I
mean I I'm writing these things these
little treats up into crumbs she's still
taking all this time that you I mean
that's how big I'm cutting him and I'm
still breaking them into teeny little
pieces from that gee that was from good

wouldn't even add Italy tomorrow but
good girl you don't have to add sit but
look why not it's it big girl now it's
not like oh you said sit so let me sit

still at the same spot we'll just right
at her nose and I kind of push back just
a bit which causes her booty to go down
she can't really jump up okay yeah
so it's like that see so she couldn't
exactly jump up go ahead sit very good
