this is an interveheion for tm and their pups. let's talk about training. because you could do traditional obedience school or train at home. how do you know what you need? >> a class setting a going to be great because it can offer great socialization for your dog and for you. you might need some fellow puppy friends. but it depends on the uncomfortable, a better might be to train at home and have a trainer come to you. then you can have individualt. goals me >> and before we get to our problem puppies over here, i love our producers. they're wrangling their are some basic commands, basic things to train right away? l a of people focus on i want to teach sit and shake and stay. but i think the most important thing you can do at the beginning is teach good house manners through a lot of

supervision. keeping the dog in the sameof rm he house as you. get a good relieving schedule outside. making sure they're going house. opposed to in the and teaching the dog their name and to come when called. those are my three top priorities. >> okay. good. w let's get to math tetie. what's going ton with scooby at home? friendly. some days he goes on walks and doesn't bark on everything. sand other day it's like every board, person, dog. >> what about insid the house? >> inside he doesn't. inside he does not. >> he really likes roberto's treats. >> what do we do with barker? >> whenever i'm working through any issue at all, we focus on what we want the dog to do versus what we don't. whenever we see calm and quiet behavior, i would rapire give scooby scooby snacks.

>> should i give them right now? >> ah. you can. it appears whatever the treats over there are are more interesting. so perhaps invest in that. >> but you want to find a treat that he really, really, really likes. there could be chicken, cheese, little pieces of stk. and you could teach it -- >> what doo here? >> you can teach it on a word. you can teach the word look and then give himch a pea of that really special treat. this treat here is not a high enough value. those situations are more exciting. >> scooby, you keep working on that. we have got erin and penny. what's going on with penny? ry penny has separation anxiety. so we to leave her at home, put her in t ate. but she has it so badly that she with her teeth bent the metal on the crate. wow. >> yeah. she bent it back, pulled down the side and escaped while we were at work. terrified she was g to go chew something up in the apartment. so what do we do?

>> okay. sop what i would recommend is there'seemart frs that exist now. there's two different kinds. one that gives your dogs a full meal. there's also a smart fder you amn attach to the outside of the crate progrmed through your phone. i want my dog to have a treat every one minute. every 30 seconds. whatever it needs to be at the beginning. that will keep her cool and calm andct col while gone. good things will still happen when you leave the house. if she's too stressed to even eat food. then i recommend consulting with a veterinary anbehaviorist. they can medically support your behavior modification. >> okay. we can't miss out for winnie. roberto's dog. what's going on with winnie. >> she's a good pup but she's got a chewing problem. she is obsessed with our couch. she tore up a corner of it. she even chewe tough her harnesses. what d we do? >> i recommend lots of appropriate chew toys. myavorites are deer antlers

and elk antlers. those are naturally -- >> like real antlers? >> they're naturally shed. and then what i would do is i would supervise her in the house. theans maybe even letting her drag a leash around the house. if she starts to chew, step on the leash and redirect her to the appropriate toy. >> going to try that. >> guys, good luck with everything. scooby, penny, winnie. oh, my gosh. situation developing. olivia, 911. we're back in a moment. this is "today" on nbc. is this our new car? it's a newd uick envision. got it with wi-fi for all of your wi-fi stuff, wireless charging for your phone. cool! wait til you check out the back! th at's a lot of groceries. look at my strong man! don't patronize me... the new buick envision is full of surprises. get up to 16 percent below msrp on most of these 2019 buick models when you finance through gm financial.
