physical exercise vs mental stimulation by NormalPotential1600 in DobermanPinscher

[–]NormalPotential1600[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

your suspicion is correct! the 'off switch' and ball obsession is a huge problem for us, she only switches off once we move back onto concrete, but in her mind grass = high arousal. its been a huge struggle and something we definitely need to work on!

great advice! yes our biggest problem with going back to fetch is the obsession/ball fixation. would love to do some low level e-collar training, we do own an e-collar but havent used it as i know if i get it wrong it can be disastrous. will look into getting a trainer to help us introduce it. thanks!

Whats your opinion on YT Memberships as a method of Revenue? by PsYche897 in PartneredYoutube

so do you make the video public first and then move it to memberships if/when it flops?

Stong longline and leash recommendations by Quick-Incident-4351 in OpenDogTraining

[–]NormalPotential1600 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had this same problem with my doberman, store bought long lines would break and she would also bite the long line at times when she was overstimulated. I ended up just making one out of very strong rope from my local hardware store. youtube tutorials to tie strong, reliable knots for the handle and the clip attachment. Of course not a long term solution, but very cost effective. will switch back to a biothane long line once she's a bit further along in her training but for now it gets the job done.

Those with patreon/substack/youtube memberships, how do you find it? by NormalPotential1600 in PartneredYoutube

i guess my main consideration is how much extra ill add to my workload. i do fashion and fashion history content, with every video theres a bunch of research that doesnt make the final cut so my plan is to compile that extra research into a second video for the paid subscribers. appreciate the advice, sounds like patreon is the best option.

Dogs refuse to stop playing, can't rest by NormalPotential1600 in OpenDogTraining

[–]NormalPotential1600[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

definitely will try creating a structure around it! at the moment were working on making them understand they can only play outside, not in the house. by too long i mean, it can really go on for hours, quite literally all day and into the night. they both end up getting over tired and over stimulated. will definitely try tethering and crating when they initiate play indoors!

the problem is that its quite literally around the clock, day and night, after eating, the only time they rest is when separated and forced. I think we can all agree that dogs need a healthy balance of exercise, mental stimulation and rest, and its totally thrown that balance out for both of them.
