I thought this was a fascinating video. This dog has better parenting skills than many human parents.

From the Youtube video description:
"Rosalie is an experienced dog mother. This is her last litter (she just had 4).
She wants to enter the puppy room in peace but her puppies are too excited.
She also wants to teach them to stop drinking milk anymore.
When the puppies are getting calm Rosalie starts taking care of them. With this behaviour she teaches them that the only way to success (in this case being together with the mother) includes a calm energy level."

When she started barking, I wanted to calm down and go read in the corner.

Even the camera man took a seat.

This is exactly how we should teach our dogs. Why people don't realise this is beyond me. It's so obvious, so simple.

Ha, my dog is thumping his tail as he hears mama dog correct her pups 😄
