How To Teach Your Dog to Go to a Spot (Go to your mark)

Ive used this method before for “bang, play dead” and “crawl” it’s a very effective technique as long as you don’t use negative commands. High value toys and treats are key, but like he is implying don’t start off with too much so they don’t get confused. 10/10

Hi Zac. Big fan. I use you techniques and your style resonates with me. We’ve had five dogs in addition to fostering dogs and raising five successful adults. I’m used to training, communication, routines etc.
I’ve got a ten month old Corgidoodle who has started marking people. Yikes! It appears to be the owners of the dogs he enjoys most. It’s so hard to keep my eyes on him CONSTANTLY while at the park or with others and this is when this happens.
He not neutered yet, though will be. He’s incredibly smart and energetic. Unfortunately, he’s not very affectionate. No licking or kissing though will roll over for a tummy rub and wags his tail and is always friendly along with being very social.
Smudge is not a cuddler. We refer to his personality as being almost cat like.
Just thought I’d share these parts of his personality because somehow it might be pertinent.
I feel as though I’m giving him enough stimulation and exercise. I don’t think this is the issue though. What are your thoughts? I’m embarrassed to go to our usual dog park because his marking has happened about 7-8 time over the past week or so. This happened yesterday at a new area with different people, HELP!

OMG, Zac I’ve been watching all your current videos. And you are so young here! I love that you have been giving such great advice for so many years! Can’t wait to teach Link this!

im so grateful for your videos!!! I adopted my pup at 8 weeks and he's only 15 weeks and already knows so many tricks!!!

Man this guy is good

I use touch it for something else , can I make the command name (Mark) than have my dog 🐕 get on it ?

My dog learned it super fast. And even stayed on it! (He knows the stay command). Now time to move to the next challenge of cooking dinner with him on his Mark! 🙈Thanks for the video!

Omg u sound so much younger here

Watch Richard Heinz! Zak George knows nothing about dogs. He is a fraud!

Is she train or already trained to do that

I'm astounded... Could this video be linked in the description of go to your bed? It seems like a good place to start and set up the go to your bed training... Or maybe that's just my dog???

I have a hard time getting my dog train she got it right thanks

Who's watching in 2020??!!

Zak deserves his own show on Animal Planet or something.

Woah. Zak in black 😱

Sooooo, I was mildly impressed with my pet duck, but after hearing the point response fact, I'm super impressed. My Indian runner duck responds to point. Maybe she learned it from my dog lol

Thank you for sharing this video. My dog know the command place but if she gets distracted with my other dog or a person she just gets off. How can I keep her in space with out her getting off.

omg can you train my puppy? i had only trained him on sit down jaja, and wait for his food calmly.

i love that your dog seems to be learning this right now(err in 2012). A lot of other people's videos aren't helpful because their dog already knows the trick and performs them perfectly. thank you for the more realistic training video!~

Hey!! Good video and excellent job but my dog is only as smart as his trainer. His trainer is really dumb when it comes to this stuff.

Venus is a beauty! My puppy gets it pretty well too, thanks to you, I'm really happy I've found your channel. Also only four months old, and we've got the potty training done, so a million thanks Zak!

My dog wants to eat the towel...help

Soooooo old

What if my dog is not treat or toy motivated?

Zak. I love your videos. Appreciate your promotion of positive training.

Holy smokes, that was insane.

Bless you young man!

I love seeing a toy reward! I always was wondering how that would be

Did anyone notice that it says rEvolution on the name thing?

Quality content 👌🏼

we have a two year old brown working cocker spaniel,
she has a poop and wee outside the back door,
but we are trying to get her to go at the bottom of the garden with our older spaniel.
how can we get her to do this, i feel very sad when we have to scold her for pooping by the back door,, but it makes the house smell of urine in the summer.
we hope you can give us some advice.
regards Tim and Jn from UK

this video is soo cool. thanks bro

what kind of dog is venus

literally put bleach and more bleach and carpet cleaner with some dawn dish soap because my mom dog shitted in my room. i was so mad i wet my entire carpet and scrubbed the shit out of it. she has to be potty trained or i wont like this dog anymore.

I love seeing you and your dog's excitement when she understand and communications with you!

I like seeing you work with your own dogs. :D

I m going to teach this to my Elixir🐕

Is this one of your dogs? Can you make a bonus video of your dogs' tricks. I bet you have the most incredible communication with your dogs!

I didn't even train him to do it, but whenever I say "go to bed" to my dog, he goes and curls up on his bed.

Awesome! My papillon caught on super quick. I was able to teach him "place" within 20 minutes! Love your training methods

You are amazing! Wow!

if you want your dog to be really good at Frisbee and just starting to train 11 week old puppy. in what order should I teach each tricks, set, lay, stay, roll over, fetch, ect, ect???? Do you have a video or could you make one on each step in order? Thank you for what you do!!! your the best!!!

Awesome dog!!!!

I bet this dog knows more English than other white dudes.

Can you do a video of how to train your dog to do a walking handstand?

my dog learned this in five minutes thank you

I am going to try and teach this to my dog just at our front door carpet. This looks pretty fun to teach and useful too

Is it smart to teach the dog with a towel first or straight up its crate?

Zac...For how long time are working with your dog??
