I totally get the confusion I thought that too, but I guess its because they view playing with toys as a reward, therefore they bite your hand and earned a reward for it, its very confusing for the dog. I never would have understood unless someone had explained that. The reward system is tricky

I think the options were good however I will say using chew toys have been great for us! Especially if he’s bitting he will switch over to the chew toy quickly and now when I say no he will run off and grab a toy. Maybe I just got lucky but my pup nailed it
#1 you definitely want to redirect to a Chew toy and you mark the behavior with a word and/ or praise. Same thing for #3 You mark the disobedience with “No” and redirect to the Chew Toy.
@tammy4 that’s why you direct their attention to the toy before the biting begins. Anyone with a puppy can predict their next behavior because they are just that easily predictable. They absolutely do understand what is ok and not ok to chew on but they have to be shown.
I’m currently training a military puppy, we learn them. to understand no, and provide them with an other option then they do right and go for there own toy re reinforce the good behaviour. They have Alot of tout to bite in
I think what he means is they’re not at the capacity to learn yet. They’re usually teething so its better if you dont have them bite stuff in a playful manner at such a young age
Mine loves to play with ice cubes, we play hockey 🏒 and he loves to break them and chew them! The workout is great for him and then I put him in his crate to sleep!
They need chew toys, puppies start teething at around 3 weeks old until 5-6 weeks and then the baby teeth will fall out as the adult come in anywhere around 12-16 weeks and the teething begins again so that’s roughly 4-5 months of your dog experiencing dental discomfort on and off and it needs to chew on things to help it deal e.g. chew toys
My best advice for teaching puppies not to bite is “touch”, this is where you show your pup a treat and then I close it in your hand/fist the puppy might try and bite at your hand but they can’t actually hurt you at that young age and they also might paw and dig at your hand but you don’t give it to them until they touch your hand with their nose/snout. You can then reward them with a treat as well as a sound associated with a reward, I personally give I high pitched YES to let them know they’re getting a treat other ppl choose other words or use clickers. You can later introduce the command word touch as they get more familiar and can even have fun with it the better they get at it, running around and reaching out your hand saying touch as a form of play and mental enrichment. At the same time your dog is learning that it’s not gonna get anything from being rough and biting you. There are other means of training that are great to do also but this is my favourite especially for young dogs
@@manavnotnani5358 yes of course, it’s never too early. A disclaimer is that the chances are it won’t stop them from chewing other stuff but it will act as an alternative option, if the chew toys are too hard or of no interest you can use some ink-free cardboard, it’s completely safe and they won’t try to eat it, just tear it up, chew it up and then spit it out but on the off chance that they do consume some, it’s not toxic and they can pass it easily and safely. People use cardboard for diy enrichment toys all the time, hiding treats inside them so the dog has to tear it open to get it, even I had to make them myself back in college. Only downside is it’ll leave a mess lol
I disagree with not giving puppies chew toys. Puppies are teething and NEED to have something to chew on. When my puppy tries to bite at me, or chew on something inappropriate, I redirect her by giving her a chew toy. Repetition overtime will teach her what is acceptable to chew on.
Putting my hands like that is the only way my crusty white dog will get her eye area brushed 😂
Need right training.
I’ve been trying just that but it still not working help 😢
I thought giving them a toy when they bite was redirecting—is that not true?
I just watched another video from a professional dog trainer, he said to redirect. I love the consistency on the internet. 😝
No. It only conforms chewing. They can’t under understand this or that. Babies can. Not puppies.
Puppies need humans to teach bite inhibition not take away toys 😅@marikiemarie7622

Guess it’s a little late to avoid the chew toy thing
yeah wtf? everyone else says to redirect with a chew toy. makes me feel like i fucked up already 💀
Same here….oops😮
@@bridgetlyons876 I don’t know how accurate that is. Everyone else had suggested redirecting to a toy. There’s an entire industry on dog toys.
This video (short) is giving bad information. You’re meant to give them chew toys to redirect their behaviour towards that

Hi
There is a risk they associate the reward of the chew toy with biting. Then they learn to bite/chew for you to hand them a reward.
@@tammy4 no lol

What else does a puppy actually do if it’s doesn’t chew on a toy????

“Puppies can’t differentiate what they can and can’t chew” – that’s the point of training them genius

« Puppies can’t differentiate what they can and can’t chew »
« Give them ice cubes to chew on »
that’s what I was thinking
Sick of experts disagreeing
Puppies don’t know what they and cannot chew, *gives them a ice cube
You ain’t meant to give dogs ice 🧊
Tysm for the advice,my owner will try this on me
You’re the owner
I wish i knew these when we had a puppy
This is pretty helpful considering I got a dog 2 weeks ago
sadly all the advice here is wrong, don’t trust the internet.
Bad AI advice here. Puppies need chew toys but we need to remove anything we don’t want them to chew while learning.
