Some tricks are …
Some tricks are easier to teach to a puppy than to an adult. You could get a child to get down and roll over easily just for fun, but it would be hard to get an adult to do the same behavior. Same with dogs. Older dogs don’t think the roll over is so fun unless taught as a puppy. Your Doberman is still very trainable. You just need to use different methods than used with puppies.

my dobie is very …
my dobie is very loving and a wonderful family pet, but we never trained her to do any tricks as a puppy. she is 2 now so is mid-adolescent, and acting a bit like a stroppy teenager. is it too late to train her to do these tricks? also the roll over thing: she physically can’t do it! not just understanding the command, but actual rolling over seems hard for her. is that normal in a dobe?

There is a big …
There is a big difference in teaching and training. This pup is just learning. Had she known better I would not have repeated and I would not have given a treat. But, as she is just learning we want to keep it fun. I wanted her to enjoy the training session and believe in her ability. Now that she is a trained adult I never repeat a command and she would get correct for non-compliance. She is now trained to perform those behaviors regardless of her mood or distractions.

at 1:12, did she …
at 1:12, did she not sit for you at the first command because you didnt treat her? And don’t worry, I know that you can ask for more than one command per treat… it’s just an innocent question….!!

I have seen this …
I have seen this Doberman as an adult.I went to David’s house for help with my Dobie.His Dobie and his GSD,were both with us,off leash, so my dog would have distractions. His played like pups & when it was time for them to work(he did a demo),they were happy to do so & did not need a clicker/treat.They watched him at all times.They are not robots nor do they cower in fear.He helped me and my Dobie in one session. I will hire him in the soon for new issues.

Never underestimate the power of procrastination. Anything is impossible if you put it off for long enough.

What, one can do that, implant the chip but forget to register?! Wow….

Chipped and tattoed …
Chipped and tattoed is the best way to fly. Not all Shelters have chips. And be sure to register you chip. I recently found a Cocker Spanial, scanned his chip, but this owner had not registered the chip so I had no way of finding his owner.

What if they get lost w/ no collar? Are they microchipped?

Our hearts still break for her.
The point i was trying to make, obviously not successfully, was that training needs to be done in a majority of ways and clicker & command training don’t help in noisy situations.
I was trying to point out to those who have never had a dog that there are tools to training but that hand signals are (in my opinion) the way to be able to control a dog from distance.
Our hearing dogs are taught this way, also sniffer dogs.
Please dont be offended by my comments.

Cshellzy, I don’t …
Cshellzy, I don’t find your comments objectionable. They are just wrong. I feel sorry that your dog was harmed because of bad training. But, it was the application, not the method. This video you commented on is only the start of a training program. I agree that a clicker and a cookie will not get you a reliable recall under distraction. You are preaching to the choir. I am a believer of balanced training methods.

Harris you …
Harris you obviously find my comments objectionable.
I am entitled to my opinion.
I have experienced my dog escaping after a rabbit when she was a pup, across a busy country road, the clicker or shouting “down” did no good then, she was run over.
Luckily she survived but her injuries to her back end bothered her in later life
I have no video’s to back up the hand signal methods and unfortunately i have no Doby now either, she died in Nov of a pulminary embolism.
