Gem: "Every dog on this planet deserves to be someone's special dog." Great reminder that I need to be present and intentional in my training to help that special dog have the best life possible.

I have recently joined Home School the Dog and am following through on Susan’s ask that I respond to other members comments. Before responding to another member who posted a question about a multiple dog household with challenges similar to those which my multiple dogs present me, I decided to view the playlist that Susan’s team recommended that other member view. Wow, I have learned so much and I am only on the second podcast in the playlist. I am realizing how much I have relied on hope in my training and have not been intentional. These podcasts so far have been like I was wondering lost in the forest and thought I was on the path when someone stops me and says “Hey, look at this map” and I realize “Oh my, I have ventured deep into the forest and there are Lions, Tigers and Bears, Oh my.” In any case, at the end of this podcast, Susan asked me to leave a review, so that is what I am doing.

I have 4 dogs, all girls. Will about to be 4 and under. The youngest will be 2 in march. The next youngest will be 2 in Feb and my next is around 2. I found her as a stray. And my smallest is the oldest. So it’s oldest to youngest, mini dachshund, husky mix, border collie lab mix, border collie. So this podcast really helped. I can actually have my girls in line and hand out treats with them all close, waiting their turn. We play find it. But I do have to work on the licking, or some of the ones you mentioned herding dogs do. They will get a little rough with my little one sometimes. But my little one allows them to take things she has and I don’t know how to stop that. This is a good podcast that many multiple dog households, need. For the longest time I only had two dogs. The past couple years I’ve been a 4 and 5 dog household 5 for a short time frame. A month with my late missy and a week with my last senior. They lived to be 13 1/2 and 14 of old age.

Thank you for this. This is really helpful. I have a two dog household, one is 12 months younger than the other and the youngest is being really pushy with the older dog and I simply haven't known how to deal with it. All the resources I see seem to be focused on single dogs, but the truth is apart from short periods its difficult to separate them without the one on the outer feeling anxious. The younger dog definitely has other anxiety issues as well. eg Resource guarding, separation anxiety, & poor socialisation. He was a bit older when I got him so he was a bit behind the eightball to begin and I made the assumption that it would be enough with my other dog. Now he is almost intolerant of being in the presence of other dogs. I'm making a lot of mistakes and really do not know how to manage. Also because of work and being alone there are times I have to leave them on their own to cope so I'm not sure about that either.

Love this! Frankly, I love all of your podcasts and stuff. This issue comes up frequently when I place puppies (that I have bred) in households where there is already another dog. In the future, I will provide a link to these two podcasts about multi-dog households. Your insights, as usual, are very good. In the past, I've suggested the time-out option to be used a bit more, will move to the re-direct instead first. Also, I LOVE your comment about reinforcing good/great interactions happening.

I'm so glad I found this channel. I'm a new subscriber to Crate Games - I have two older dogs and we recently just rescued (literally rescued, he was abandoned on Christmas eve in the ball field across from my MIL home) an adolescent puppy (and yes, I am WELL aware that this is not the ideal situation. Thank my bleeding heart husband - I love, love, love animals, but I'm concerned about the limits of my training abilities to make this work!). I'm working really hard to make things equitable for everyone, the pup is going to take a while to unpack. He has a very hard time dealing with frustration and limits and sometimes my attempts to redirect work and sometimes they fail. He will go from YEAH BEST TREATS EVER to "hanging up the phone." I feel like right now, when pup is calm, both older dogs sit at the border of acknowledge/tolerate. The beagle can get aggravated by the pups rambunctious attempts to play, the aussie usually just goes meh, nah. I try to give everyone some solo time both with me and outside. I'm looking forward to when Recallers opens up, for sure. Thank you for these great podcasts - they are so informative.

For the past four years my husband and I have been managing behavior issues in our multi-dog home. We have 3 rescues... Our first rescue, Pete (6 years) and later litter mates, Roscoe (5 years) and Layla (5 years). Within 6 months of bringing in the siblings, Pete and Roscoe got into a fight/scuffle and we've been on the mend since then. Sometimes things are good, sometimes things take a turn for the worse. The instigator seems to vary between the two. I would DESPERATELY like to chat with you or even hop on one of your podcasts. When you said "Every dog on this planet deserves to be someone's special dog." I cried. Pete is my soulmate and I swear we've been together across life times. BUT we are wondering if rehoming him is a harsh and painful reality that I might be forced to face.

I've been coming back to this and the other multi dog household episodes... if a dog is policing or guarding and you want to tell him to knock it off, how do you do that. Because my adolescent dog might police the older one but any kind of attention or touching/taking his collar would (I guess because of the opposition reflex) make him go really aggressive towards the older dog. I wouldn't know how to use reinforct, redirect or reassign without worsening the situation. The only thing we've seen work so far is giving attention to the older dog shielding him a little to be able to do/go to what/ where he wants. I'm part of HSD, recallers and crate games if you can direct me to more help in one of those or other programs. Thanks a trillion!

Hi Susan: I think I'm the resource my young dog is guarding. If I start to pet or play with my older dog (6), then my younger dog bulls her way in to get the attention/toy/petting. There isn't any growling or snarling but my older dog gives up and goes to lay on his bed away from her (and me). I end up reassigning her way too often. Do you have a podcast on this?

How should I deal with a 2 yr old heeler T bone running w a face air bite ? Having a toy in their mouth helps, but if it's dropped, he's back to t bone snapping the older off leash heeler. I've limited the off leash running with the two (changed the environment). I only have the two out running together in the morning when they are well rested. Any suggestions are appreciated. We're seeing great results with the homeschool program. Thank you for all you do! ❤

Oh, my - the vicious t-bone crash. After the 2nd time Gotta took poor Echo off his feet and nearly killed him, they weren't allowed to play loose in the yard for three years. That's how long it took for Gotta to learn to respect Echo's space and be kind to him. Hard to believe that two 30-pound Shelties could badly injure each other, but they can! Speed kills! Now, they play nice and safely! Yay! Love your rules - we have NO wrassling in the house, and no picking on the old dog! Also, no playing loose in the Agility equipment yard - it's too easy to get hurt!!

Love this, I’d love to hear what you do when your pup starts to heard when walking all together. At the moment if my young Kelpie starts to bounce around in front of another dog I will redirect with work close for rewards with me or scatter on the ground. If she still does it I will then play the lease on off game & then stay on lease until she comes down enough in energy. Is this ok?

Is there a podcast that covers how you might separate dogs who are beginning to get too aggressive with each other? This is the stage where teeth are bared, higher pitched growling and they don't seem to hear me. Do I grab one and pull away? Do I try to slide an object between them? 98% of the time they are in a state of "adore", but there are moments of aggravation.

Question about reassigning. The 10wk puppy gets a 10 min session of free roam the house under supervision. Sometimes I bring in the siblings (both are at the tolerate stage) and there is a small "obstacle" course that is part of this time. They are all engaged and treated, but sometimes the pup is too much. Also, if I let the pup go too long then we get over-tired or over-aroused that leads to red-zone. After time is up (or if the pup gets over excited before time), the pup goes back into the expen for self-play and "de-escalation" before sleep time. Is it possible that this is actually being interpreted as "punishment" by the puppy? I do sit by the expen and treat for sits/laydown or voluntary going into the crate after the free roam session.
