I’d like to train my 3 month old puppy, (Cavilier King Charles Spaniel x Miniature Poodle.) to ring a bell when he needs to’go’. How can I do this? Also any other training tips you have would be greatly appreciated, Thanks! 
I’m going to a bronze dog training class with my puppy tonight and I was just wondering whether there were any extra things I should know which could help me to pass. Any ideas?
I have a 7 month old Border Terrier that seems smart but also very defiant.
He has a problem eating things he’s not supposed to. On walks he’ll eat everything (poop/garbage/dead animals/dirt) & at home he goes for any food that’s out. When I try to get it away he growls & nips at me (which is very out of character). He doesn’t nibble/chew on it, he gulps it down.
Also, he rarely responds to his name. I know he knows it but [if he's outside (I do leash him), in another part of the house, or across the room,] when I call him he could care less.
And he barks at any disturbance (someone entering/exiting/moving around the room, noises/movement outside, appliances turning on/off, etc.). I don’t mind occasional barking (playfully/protectively).
I don’t remember these problems with any of my previous dogs. My last two dogs were put down at age 15. I never "trained" them, they were just very obedient/companionable; they didn’t do tricks but it seemed as if they could understand English.
plz
I mentioned this problem in another post (about the dog puking) but I think it needs some elaboration and its own question.
I have a female, 6 mo.-old Sheltie. I’m just looking for tips.
I want to help teach her how to get off my bed, without embolding her to try and go up and down stairs. The reason for this is that she is not yet fully trained to "stop and come" if she gets away from me, and she’s bolted out of my second-floor apartment door twice. The stairs are a buffer zone that I know she won’t cross and I can catch her. I’ve scolded her about the bolting, and she’s stopped, but its still a safety zone.
She is both one of the most intelligent dogs I’ve had AND the most hard-headed/ornery. The breeder whose helping me with her warned me that she was strong-headed, so this has been a character trait since birth. She learned ’sit’ and other "tricks" after less than 4 commands, so I know she’s not just being stupid. I’ve trained many dogs before, but this one is just… wow. 
Now, part of the issue here is that I don’t know why she’s scared to leave the bed. It is one of those Ikea beds, so it’s just over a foot off the floor — I might as well be sleeping on just a mattress. While it’s still head-level with her, I’ve seen her jump off of other things. When I walk her in the park, she’ll hop curbs and two-foot or higher terraces with me with absolutely no problem or pause. I have a three-foot tall bed in my living room for a couch (I’m cheap, okay?), and she gets off of that just fine. I know she’s still a puppy, but I wonder why she thinks the bed is more dangerous than these other things.
I want her to sleep with me. I don’t want her getting on my bed while I’m gone. I work a VERY long shift — too long for her to not go potty, and I accept that, but she gets on my bed and gets trapped up there. I’m tired of washing sheets. I come in from work and she’s sitting there with that look on her face that says she KNOWS she’s messed up and she can’t even hide because there’s nowhere to go.
The only option I have is shutting the bedroom door, which means shutting my two cats in there since that’s their only access to their box in my bathroom. It just seems mean to them because it really is a very small space.
She was originally crate-trained, but I used to live with some roommates who would ignore her or tantalize her in the crate (one of the reasons I moved out) and then blame me when she wouldn’t stop barking at them. I would have to go and get her and stick her in my bed to make her be quiet, that or stick her in an unventilated room which was NOT an option. The crate’s become a "time out" zone, so I don’t want to leave her in there when I go to work and make her think she’s being punished.
Think I’ve covered everything.
I’m trying to train my dog Whiskey not to pee on the carpet. He is a three week old golden retriever. This problem has been non stop and my wife and i are at wits end. we have tried everything from yelling to rubbing his nose in it. My good friend Oscar across the hall tells me that he has had this problem before and the best solution is to hit him until he relents. i have tried this, but to no avail. Please help, because im afraid ill have to put him down if we cannot resolve this issue.
I recently introduced an empty can full of pennies as a way of training my pup. I’ve read in many places that if you’re puppy is doing something wrong like crawling under the couch or chewing the carpet you would give the can a good shake and the noise will startle the dog out of doing the innapropriate action, and it is working, my puppy has stopped going under the couches.
I have also read that scolding a puppy for eliminating on the floor will scare it and therefore give it the mentality that you just don’t want to see it poop, ever. So the dog will eliminate behind couches and in corners where you can’t see. I don’t cold my puppy for accidents on the carpet, but I was wondering, would shaking the can snap my puppy out of eliminating in inappropriate spots? Or will it just scare her to eliminate in general?
Any other paper training tips are appreciated
Thanks
Ok I just got this dog. It isn’t a puppy a older dog. Small terrier it has a problem of peeing in the house what is the best way to break this habit.
He is older not a puppy. I have had him for nearly a month still trying to find away to break this habit.
Thanks so much for your help
I play with him a lot becuase he is so high strung. He is around cats two of them.
I think he don’t want cats to be in house he is boss of the house and every place in the house is his.
I haven’t had him neutered yet that might be something I need to do. Because other then that someone told me about putting him in a crate .
I have a male and female pit bull mixes. The male is temperalmental when it comes to dicipline and the female is skiddish, like she was abused before i got her or something. I’m trying to train them not to be so aggressive towards other animals. I keep them in a large fenced in back yard and take them on walks with a leash, but when they see other animals they go nuts especially the male. Any tips would be helpful, thanks in advance.
he has never actually bitten someone or another animal. He growls at me when i pop his behind for doing something bad. And when it comes to other animals he doesn’t growl or bark at them he just fixes his stare on them and lunges for them but when he gets to them he just butts them with his nose and is just wildly checking them out.
