After trying several youtube channels on dog training I cant get over how good the Information in this Channel is and how well it is delivered. So far i havent found anything even close to it. LEVELS
Thank you for the generous feedback!
Definitely the best out there! I love how in depth the psychology about the dog and human though process is going into this type of training.
I agree. I am shocked that other channels have more subscribers and more views while the quality of information delivered and production quality are higher on Ian’s channel.
100%!!
Agreed! All of them!
Love how most of this video reminds us that it's the humans that need more training than the dogs... :)
Simpatico Human Training! side effects include better behaved dogs...
yes!!
Came for the dog tips, stayed for the Amon Amarth shirt.
🤘
same!
It's like the second or third time I've seen him wear it, something about that shirt the goatee the hair and the piercings and wristbands all track now. Seems like a nice dude too
I am bringing home my 8 week old Standard Poodle in 2 weeks. I love these videos. I am 47 years old and this is my first dog.
Really not happy with you being kidnapped, but am glad you were released to make more videos 🤪😂 Please don’t stay away for so long anymore. We need your videos!!!! When are you going to get another puppy so we can see what you do and how you do it!?!? 😎👍🏼
Thanks for your videos 🤗👏🏼🖖🏽
This is by far the best dog training RUclips channel.
Great info presented concisely and clearly.
Thank you!!
skills in right place!
Summer School - Good A+ ... "Some Pros are Pros" ... Thank You Sir ... for your life lessons!
Extra credit ... Don't forget to spay and neuter your ... problems!
Good reminder! I had to really turn my feedback on a dime from a good boy for potty, leave it (ignored) and then drop it for a cigarette butt, and then another good boy for dropping it.
We also used the technique from the puppy biting video and our little guy has improved soooo much over the month that we’ve had him. Thank you!
You're so welcome! Good work on your part, too! Great use of feedback and consistency. ;)
Really appreciating this video and the others I've watched! Our Staffy puppy comes home this weekend and I've been scouring RUclips for insight into training. These videos are so well put together and informative!
This is the probably the fifth time I have watched this video since it was posted. The reason I have come back to it so frequently is because it serves as training for me. It reminds me that in order create the best learning situation for my companion I must use every teachable moment in an immediate manner while remembering that sometimes lack of bad behaviors are rewardable in and of themselves!
Thanks Ian.
Love this. I have been trying to get my bf to be more vocal with his praise and use the "good boy" often. Bf tends to just pull on the leash if he wants something from the dog. I catch myself using a lot of words to give feedback "this way..no..YES" Others will think I am crazy but it works!
Great job, Merel!
This video is already making a difference in my training with my 3.5 month old puppy. I didn't even realize that I wasn't praising her for stopping bad behaviors when I told her to do so. I was doing great at praising for good behaviors, but had a total blind spot in my communication with her on the bad ones. Thanks so much!
You're welcome! Keep up the great work!
I have learned to always have treats ready to grab and give to the dog. That works out great! The hard part is when your on a walk in very cold weather and you have gloves on.
Yes, gloves are difficult. You do have more time though if you use a reward marker. Also using a tube with a paste like treat (peanut butter mixed with baby food is my go to) can help as you can just squeeze a little out for the dog to lick.
My dog, Dot, is a chewer and likes to express her affection by grooming and mouthing. Thanks to the methods I learned from your video, she always responds appropriately to "ow" and is usually very gentle. I'm really grateful.
Please do more videos, they are all very helpful!!!
Your videos have helped us train our dog, and even made us confident enough to be able to adopt a rescue dog as well. Both are doing great because of your videos teaching us to be the best dog owners we can be 😊 thank you!
Great info and it is well appreciated. Keep doing what you doing
Your videos are so high quality! I’ve been bouncing around other dog training channels, but yours is hands down the best one. I will now be loyal to yours, the quality and content is perfect! Thank you!!
Great advice! You need to be able to see things through your dogs point of view. I trained Gus to be a trail dog using the reward system. He is a pleasure to hike with. Heck he's a pleasure to live with, if he could talk I'd have no reason to be around people :)
Love it!
Watching this in November 2020 and love it. Following lots of other dog trainers but like this the most. Kids and I are getting an 8 week old puppy next week and have watched soooo many RUclips videos. I love his approach and common sense. Wish me luck 🌹
Good luck, Sue! And thank you for watching!
2:27 "willing to hang out and keep hustling". Now you speak my language, lol! I'm learning to hustle my dog! :)
Excellent advice! I am always amazed by some dog training programmes that make it look like you can change things in two minutes flat (looking at you the otherwise excellent Victoria Stilwell!). It gives people wrong expectations - this stuff takes time and patience. Learning Clicker training helps...but you really have to be super quick! And patience! May I be granted lots as my lovely dog passes through puberty!
Your puppy biting advice is working for us! We just watched that video a few hours ago and after employing the technique, the difference is night and day with our 9 week old pup!! Thank you!! I can’t believe NO ONE else talks about that! So glad we found you nice and early on💗✨
I'm watching this before our next 6:00 pm walk, *this is pure gold*
Thank you.
I’m so lucky Ian has good youtube ratings and search optimization! I’m super grateful I came across this... His course on open learning was WELL worth the price. My puppy is happy, well adjusted and we are so close because I followed his techniques...
Thank you SO MUCH for the generous feedback!
Please keep making videos it helps so much 🙏🐶
Great videos! I'm with the other guy who said after looking at many different RUclips channels on training dogs, yours are by far the best. Most people already know the basics. You break it down to the crucial details that make success or failure.
I don't have a dog yet, but I like to prepare myself for when I do get one. Since watching these videos (and reading a book by Tamar Geller) I noticed how many people excuse bad behaviour (barking or jumping) as the dog's fault, rather than their fault as a trainer. Especially when they've had other dogs who didn't do those things. So I thought it was great when you said, that you should reprimand yourself for missing it instead of the dog for doing it.
I completely agree!
I want a puppy really bad, but im a little scared of not raising it correctly so i’m watching loads and loads of training videos, hope it helps. Great video BTW!
Awesome video, thank you so much for sharing
You're welcome!
Ian, I just want to say how much I love your channel. I had been contemplating getting a dog for a couple of years for my family, so I found your channel to educate myself. After a ton of research to make sure we were ready for what we were getting into , I FINALLY pulled the trigger and we are getting our little boston terrier in a few weeks. My kids and I have been watching your content to help us work together to train him. THANK YOU!!!
You're so welcome!
Man you are a genius I swear 😂😂 I feel like some things are so intuitive yet we never think about them... I stared doing the praising when my pup stops jumping on me instead of JUST correcting her and I feel like just since yesterday it's been getting a little better, I'm gonna keep practicing it and trying these tips wherever I can, thanks man 👌👌
You're so welcome!
Thanks for the reminder of the speed, I finally know the reason why my dog is not on the right track; will practice giving more feedback to my dog! 👍🏻👍🏻
You got this!
Undoubtedly the best training advice to keep in mind all the time. Thank you!!!
I loved the simplicity yet importance of the concept, i'll pay much more atention, it's so easy to focus in "correcting" and give the rest for granted, Thanks!!
Awesome! You got this!
Your videos have been super helpful with my German shepherd/Rottweiler puppy! Thanks for the content and showing me how to put things into a dogs perspective. Also, a big Gary V fan too! Your compassion shines
Great advice!
Stumbled across your videos, just love them! I have a question that is perhaps answered in one of your videos if you could direct me? Bringing a new 9 week Boston Terrier home in 3 weeks. I understand it will take time to crate train. In the meantime what do we do with puppy at night? Wait until full crate training is done before cratting it at night (of course letting him out every 2 to 3 hours for potty time) what do you recommend to best shape the night time expectations? I see a lot of suggestions that we start out with him in our room but long term that isnt where we would like him to be. We will do it if it's the best for a puppy though!
Thanks for this video. I realize that it is not my dog. But my response time. Thanks for bringing this out. I am working my dog for AKC novice which is mostly voiceless. Pop stands and perfection in heeling have been our biggest struggle. Your videos are helpful in problem solving. Thanks
Happy to help!
Great video! You’re becoming my go to trainer. Any chance you could make a video briefly highlighting all the commands you’ll ever need to teach your dog/puppy? Briefly touching on what, when, and how? There are so many conflicting guides on this. Some of which are really complicated. Thanks again.
Ian, Thank You so much! I will definitely be working on my speed and patience as I am waiting for our up coming appointment! Absolutely, love your videos and can’t wait to meet you in person.
Theresa
Absolutely loving your videos!
Great video as always, keep sharing.
Ian your videos are AMAZING! you are the BEST. Thank you for guiding us through being new puppy parents.
Great videos and information! Thanks for sharing.
Yes, my dogs train in the shadow of Mount Doom. That's why they are so well behaved! :D
That'll do it, LOL. The eye of Sauron is always watching!
Perfect! Great video for a new dog owner. My dog would respond the first week I adopted her but after seeing this video I understand why she's starting to ignore me. I'm also the slow one with the treats lol. Thanks for the great info!
Could you do a video on how to get your older dog accustomed to introducing a new dog into the home? I have a 13 year old and bringing a 1 year old home. Thanks, I appreciate your channel.
A video about the current situation going on would be quite wonderful too.
I have a questions based on this info. How do you reliably determine the amount of time to wait for feedback? For example, let's say your dog brings a toy to you, drops it on the floor and then barks at you. You correct the behavior because you don't want your dog barking at you and demanding play. You wait a moment, the dog isn't barking you praise and throw the toy. How do you determine that you aren't actually reinforcing the behavior of "drop the toy, bark, wait a moment, toy gets thrown." I imagine dog recall is different per dog, but is there a good way to determine the threshold of time that should occur between these events? I'm concerned about how deep the chain of events goes if you get the timing of praise wrong.
Following in case he answers this question
Great video as usual! Very informative!
Love this channel. Recently adopted a pup from the pound. These videos are great. I hope to see new videos soon.
Last video four months ago 😔
thanks for the vids... love the Gary Vee tie in. new puppy in a couple weeks and you're helping me feel much less anxious and more capable of being a good dog owner. kudos!
Good feedback works with kids as well, great content.
LOL true story
So true
I've been exercising my patience over the past 2-3 months waiting for your next video haha >insert GOT shame gif here< (it was definitely with the wait though!)
HAHA touché, Charlotte! 😂 I'm hoping now we can produce a little faster now that some other things are off our plate!
@@SimpawticoDogTraining UHU!
Ian this is fabulous! There are so many quotables in this. Thank you
You're very welcome
Love your channel also love the Amon amarth T!
Well done
Love this! Spot on!
This is really great.
I have adopted a 6 yo boxer-mutt female. She has been through 2 home before coming to me. It is very obvious that one of these homes was abusive to her. She has come out of a lot of it, but it still shows up. Any recommendations to help her. (abusive appears to be hitting with hands and some object, yelling/berating, etc...)
Can you please do a video on picky eaters? My 5 month old puppy is the pickiest eater and I am having a hard time keeping them on a consistent food. I so far love the channel. So much great information.
Did you ever find info on this? My 4 month old Cavapoo is a very picky eater as well.
K Sosa so. Yea, that’s just puppies apparently. My dog is now a bit over a year old and she eats every meal. The key is consistency with a regular routine and don’t give them any other options. Present it at the same time every meal, allow them 10 to start eating. If they pass on the meal, take it away until next feeding. Don’t keep switching up the food or they will expect it. That’s what worked for me. And she grew to be a strong healthy dog.
@@robertcassistre5527 thank you for taking the time to respond. That's great advice. Glad to hear your dog is doing so well.
K Sosa no problem! Hope all goes well for you and your puppy
Ian-I love your channel and am constantly recommending it to my family and friends. This is a great video!
Could you do a video on how to calm your dog down when another dog is barking? My rescue pup (had him 2.5 months) is very reactive and fearful around other dogs. He’s friendly if they are but things don’t always go well.
Recently on a walk, a dog was in his fenced yard and started barking at my dog Bilbo. Bilbo barked back, and all of their barking set off a dog a few doors down, which set off a dog on the other block. It was 7 AM. Totally embarrassing and annoying to the neighbors. I don’t know how to train him to respond calmly in those situations! Please help!! Thank you!!
This is such great advice. I've studied and learned a lot about dog training over the years. A lot of the things I know, you've covered but with so much more depth and understanding. You've taken familiar concepts and delivered them in such clear language and with such helpful tips, I can't even tell you how excited I am! And now the concepts i try and fail to give new dog owners i know, are so easy for me to make them understand by sending them your videos. Thank you for all you do! Keep em coming!
Thank you so much for the generous feedback, Sara! Happy to help!
How do I handle a 53 pound 1 year old pittie mix jumping and biting when I take her out to potty in the yard? We work on things in the house but she goes over threshold almost immediately when we step out into the yard or onto walks. She was a stray 3 months ago and we adopted her from the pound only 2.5 months ago. She used to just do zoomies in the yard but now she jumps and bites on me. Turning away or walking away does little, she keeps going. If I reach down to treat or pet her it sets her off again. What should I do? It hurts. She is very strong.
Edit: we don’t have funds for a trainer.
Amon Amarth!! 🔥🎆
U are so good are dog training
love love love your videos! :)
Y'know, I do really love your videos, i have used sooooo many of your tips for my puppy, but just to give some constructive criticism I have found that sometimes I as dog trainer can feel a little judged when you say things like "That ridiculous knee-in-the-chest thing". Its clear you are a positive only trainer and that's great!! I personally believe positive only training should be your first choice if trainer. However, i work in the aggrsive rehabilitation side of dog behavior training, and I myself am a balanced trainer. Sometime that so called ridiculous knee-in-the-chest thing is all that keeps that large mastiff from fully attacking me when they catch me off guard. All I'm saying is; it may not work for you but that doesn't mean it doesn't work.
Anyways, sorry for the rant. Keep up the good work!! Loved the video as usual 👍🏼🧡
Hi Athena! I think we're probably more on the same page than you might think. That comment I made in the video (and I'm sorry for not giving more context IN the video) is really aimed towards those situations where people are using the knee as their main and, in many cases, ONLY long term solution in place for jumping-and it just doesn't work. In the context you're describing-YEAH for sure it's called for. That's not a training technique, that's a "Keep myself safe" technique. Those times when the shit hits the fan aren't training time. It's do what's necessary to keep yourself and everyone safe time. I get it. I've done it myself at the shelter with aggressive or just overstimulated, strong dogs. Hell, for those of us that work with aggressive or untrained dogs-especially when they're mentally and physically strong, you do sometimes have to reach deeper into the bag and do things that might not be "ideal training," but it's what's necessary right then to control the situation. Truth be told, I probably lean more towards the balanced side of things, but I hate the labels since they don't really convey much outside of marketing terms. There are "balanced" people who are mega positive, and "positive" people I wouldn't let anywhere near one of my dogs. That's how it goes with anything, though, right? Anyways, I appreciate the work you do and I know it's tough in the trenches. I'm sorry you felt called out; I assure you that YOU were not one of those folks it was aimed at!
@@SimpawticoDogTraining I cant remember the last time somebody was so understanding on this platform. The fact you are so educated in what you do and say restores the faith I have in this odd-ball community we call "the dog trainers". It makes my day to hear someone I look up to actually acknowledge balanced training in any context other then a negative one. I apologize for misunderstanding the context in which the comment was given, and after understanding why it was said I completely agree; that is not a viable technique to stop jumping long term. Also, thank you for having an appreciation for what I do. It gets tough at times, as I'm sure any dog training does, but it's always an adventure!! No two dogs are the same :)
Keep doing what you do Ian, we all adore you!!
Ian - another stellar video. Thanks for the reinforcement. I finally found the perfect treat bag that works great for me to give reinforcement more quickly - especially when walking with two dogs. I use a small cross body bag that has two pockets that are big enough to get my hand in. And yes, it has taken months and years and we are improving all the time. We just haven't mastered squirrels and deer. Always wish we could have worked with you longer. Best wishes as always. Becca and Jake
Hey! So good to hear from you! Glad to hear you're all doing well. Miss you and the doggos. Give Becca and Jake some love from me!
Can you tell me which bag you use?
Hey Ian! Hurairah here from Pakistan. Love your videos man, I'm learning a lot from them! . We have 2 fully grown bhakarwal dogs and 5 of their 3 month puppies. We live in a joint family so we have a couple of acres of land where we have mutliple animals and many people visit and work there on a daily basis. We have atleast 2 people taking care of the animals at all times. However we have trouble training our dogs. I wanted to ask how can you train multiple puppies together and that too outdoors. Outdoors has many distractions and indoors isnt an option since our elders dont allow the dogs inside. Please note we dont have pet stores in my city and dog food isnt sold here either. So what should be the best diet for our dogs and which treats should we use using training(they'll have to be made at home). Thank you for how much you're helping dogs and their guardians. May you excel!
this is not technique, this is wisdom
Simpawtico
Due to the fact that Chihuahuas are an extremely common dog (I am thinking about getting one myself) would you mind creating a video that specifically targets some of the issues specific to chihuahuas? I'm sure that you would know more about what those specific issues would be than I would. I am very curious to see how to deal with such hyperactive puppies, and ones with such big personalities as chihuahuas.
Love this!!
What do you do when your puppy doesn't like treats (and when I say treats, I mean anything that isn't kibble, tiny pieces of cooked beef or chicken, tiny pieces of canned fish). We just adopted a terrier type of puppy, but so far he doesn't give two figs about treats! I don't know how to train a dog that doesn't take food rewards!
Thank you for your super helpful videos.
Could you do one in food? Kibble vs. Wet food and things to consider with different breeds?
Thanks
Love these videos! Could you maybe do a tutorial on how to teach your dog to run with you while biking? 😊
Excellent videos. Thank you very much for sharing with us all this information. I will have a puppy in 3 weeks and I have already learned a lot about what to do and not to do. Do you think you can do a video about how to clean teeth of the puppies ( dental hygiene ), not just with dental toys, but with tooth brushes ? Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Can you do a list of the top commands that you find beneficial and a rough order of how you would introduce them with a puppy?
Hi Karen. I would say my top for a puppy (or any new dog for that matter) are: Sit, Down, Stay, Come, Leave It, Get Off, and Walking on Leash. I would say Sit and Leave It are #1 and #2 for a puppy. Get Off is probably going to be #3, Come and Walking are both important but take more time to develop, so those will kind of be concurrently running "side hustles." That's my 2¢. Hope it helps!
Simpawtico Dog Training thank you! 😊
Omg
Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you
I need to watch this video every day. I feel like such a bad dog owner... 😬
Its hard to switch the attention to when they’re good vs bad for example, my 3 month old puppy chews on the rug, if I just ignore it he’ll rip it apart. Right now, I try to distract him to chew a toy instead and when he doesn’t respond I get mad and then he starts getting over excited and bites because he thinks I’m playing with him. I don’t think my puppy can tell when I’m upset or when I’m happy. So even if I do praise him i don’t think he gets that I’m happy. He’s a beagle pointer mix and is really motivated by his nose so he has a short attention span, smell trumps noise and it’s so hard to grab his attention. Any tips? I need help 😭
My dog is playing me. When she wants a treat she will walk perfectly by my side until she gets it then surges forward.
you are good, man! Very good :)
Question I just got a new puppy. She is about 2 months old she had a really ruff start to life and as a result she is afraid of being Alone in the dark how do I approach this fear of hers and help her get over it?
You got to love a dog trainer with an Amon Armath t shirt! Its the secong swedish band on you tshirts Insern. Erlier it was Ghost. So an extra ❤️ from sweden for that
I wish you released more videos! Why is it months in between?
I wish we did too. Mainly because we bought a new facility with a living space above it, and doing renovations and such on it has kind of consumed this year entirely. Also, we took on other projects (like the forthcoming Walking online course). The building is still ongoing, but at least the decks have cleared a bit and we can jump back into video production. I have about five in the queue I'm dying to get done!
We have a question - we're working with our 14-week old Great Pyrenees pup, who is truly a good dog most of the time. We're seeing that the 'ouch that hurts!" does indeed work during the day but at night he bites harder and longer and has now broken the skin on each of our hands (not badly). Do we continue the same way regardless? ......we have good insurance....but we're also both 66 and this gets pretty dang ouchy. Just want to make sure we're doing the right thing. He gets praise INSTANTLY then we get bandaids.
Hi Laurie. Yes, ideally you work the same way. However, since you know nighttime is the "witching hour" you might want to limit the hands-on interaction for the time being until your puppy is a little further along. So, either be less hands-on, bail out quicker than you would during the day, or wear gardening gloves (which I've had a few of my older students use). It's ok to just use nighttime for chew toys or tug toys and fewer cuddles until that bitey phase is over. Good luck!
I'm sure this has been asked or addressed before but I can't seem to find it.
What does MAT mean in your honorifics?
Hi there! It's a Master's degree in teaching.
Simpawtico Dog Training I didn’t know this, but it makes sense. To those with whom I have shared this channel, I have said “this guy is a Pro educator. It SHOWS that your MA degree is in teaching humans.
This one made me subrscibe! Sweet threads too.
My 11 week old GSD puppy constantly bites me and nips at my ankles when i walk. I’ve tried so many methods at stopping her (including yours) but to no avail. she continues to try and bite me and my legs and clothes all the time. any advice?
I have watched like 8 of your videos today! :) But I can't seem to find one on potty training. DO you have one? My pup does good if I let her out on a routine, but she doesn't "LET ME KNOW" if she needs to go. ?? Help ??
Anyone have advise on what I should do I have 9 week old puppy smart doing very well time to time I notice he gets to excited and atemtps to hump his toys I distract him with a walk food etc don't want to encourage the humping behaviors is it better a toy than a leg or other dog or should I keep on what I'm doing
Such a great video. Quick question - my pups are generally great on leash but if they do get to the end of the leash and we stop what should I be doing here? I'm currently either waiting for them to offer their attention before walking on/praising OR calling their attention with "look"/name/kissy noise etc before walking on/praising OR bringing them into a heel-stand before walking on/praising OR walking in the opposite direction before doing an about-face and walking on/praising... I'm not sure which of these I should be doing or if I need to just pick one!
Are clickers a good way to speed up the feedback?
Hi Mark. Clickers do work, and if they're done right, they can expedite training. That said, a University study in Italy indicated that there's no difference between a clicker and a verbal marker, provided they're consistent and timely. Clickers are great...I'm just not a clicker guy, myself, I'm a verbal marker guy. BUT, do what makes sense to you and fits your program; you'll do the best with that!
Love you even more now, knowing you’re a Gary Vee fan!
Can you please do a video on jumping?
We have a free PDF on Jumping on our website: www.simpawtico-training.com/learning/downloadables/
Great advice. I'm pretty sure my neighbors think I'm mental when I walk my dog, but it's worth it.
HAHA I know what you mean! Keep up the good work! It'll pay off!
I love your videos, with every single one I learn something new. Thank you 💙
I just have one question I can't find any tips on the internet: I don't know why but my puppy (13 weeks old) doesn't want to potty outside 😄 😭 I can go for 1 hour walks, he holds it literally until we get back inside. After we get in I promise you it won't take 5 minutes he instantly potties somewhere inside. I have a garden in which he loves to play and sleep, but he still will go inside the house to potty😂Don't know what to do 😭 do you have an idea?
I already stopped counting how often I have to clean the floor 😅
Hi Alessandra. That's pretty common. The reason is because you're not actively potty training-i.e. giving instruction. You're just kind of letting it happen. Just because you're outside when it happens, or just because there are spots outside that your puppy likes has nothing to do with convincing them that going potty outside is better than going inside. Potty training isn't a problem for dogs because they're indifferent to where they go. It's a problem for humans and so you need to actively give instruction and coaching about it.

I have a terrible stutter and struggle to talk. I am getting a puppy. Would you recommend a clicker? And focus on hand motions ? Any tips.
If you feel like a clicker would be easier for you to use as a terminal marker, than go for it! Keep in mind that you don't even need to use WORDS as markers. Some animal trainers just use sounds like "Ex" or "Dee."
And, yes, hand signals are always a good go-to if verbal prompts might be more difficult.
Good luck!
Thankyou means more than you know to have your resources. (: do you have any recommendations on what hand movements i should be doing? Or any resources you know or have about assigning hand movements
I hope you see this, what is a good cleaner to clean accidents up with?? I'm in Canada.
You have to start with an enzymatic cleaner to break down the organic material. Those are commercially available such as Nature's Miracle, Simple Solution, or Mr. Maxx Anti-Icky-Poo. You can follow that up with a disinfectant, if you want.
Hi! We love your videos, these are by far the best we've found. Keep them coming! :)
We're about to bring home our 8 week old puppy and we have a question about potty training her. She's already received her second vaccination and deworming. We live in a high-rise in Asia where the streets are a little dirty, so we were wondering if we can take her out onto the street for potty training or start with the parking lot in our building first?
That's a pickle, for sure. Depending on the vaccination schedule there, you may want to wait. Here in the States, I'd at least wait in the context until the second shot which is around 12 weeks. It's not ideal to forestall potty that late, but anytime you have to use an area with lots of traffic then pathogen control becomes stupendously more critical. If the parking lot is cleaner, with less traffic (of both human and animal) that would be better, but be cautious nonetheless. Remember that potty training is not a walking exercise, so for the time being it's go out, stay in one spot, and either potty or leave and try again in a bit. Hope that helps!
Thank you so much, this was very helpful! I think we’ll take her out on the streets at 12 weeks and see how it goes.
