Thank you for this video I will look forward to more on this gun shot video,

Pretty good drill is that and Wolf looks good. One to follow I think.

Have you got any videos on reactive dogs please?

Lost credibility when you said "they didn't come like that", implying the dog previously followed the person around as a puppy. Anyone who's ever acquired a dog that wasn't a puppy has, in fact, had a dog that came like that, or a dog that doesn't think we're the most interesting thing, didn't follow us around, and maybe even had trust or other issues.

Those dogs are the best. up there with staffies

The fact you had to drag him lol. My cocker is like an extension of myself

The firm hand needed was absent in this video. When training a dog you need consistent orders. What happened in the video was rewarding not listening like not sitting

You now have to see the next video to see the progress. This was good.

2:43 that ass wiggle was majestic my good boy sir

My Lab was doing well. Recalled to the whistle every time until two days ago when he chased a pheasant! I’m going back to a longline as I know he will now attempt it again. I was still putting him on a longline around other dogs and he was recalling well around them. He was off lead when he chased the pheasant. I feel it’s my fault for not building in distractions in a more methodical way. I know a sausage won’t trump a pheasant but the other issue is, I’ve been rewarding with treats all along! Back to the drawing board. He’s 7.5 months old.

thank you again for the video.

Fantastic video thanks

Yet another great video 👌 Thanks!

Lovely video. This deserves way more views

This is great.. my Labrador puppy is getting really good at this down our road. But how do you then take this further to other locations? If I take him somewhere knew he would go back to his old sniffing self

There is great advice here. I have a beautiful black working lab, he's 10 months and the most wonderful house pet. He came to me at 5 months from a breeder; his litter was bred for odor detection work. My boy didn't have enough drive to make it through the program but he is perfect for our family. Very well settled in the house but plenty of energy when he's out playing. The breeder assured that if we continued encouraging calm behavior and worked his mind a little he would be a great pet and she was absolutely right.

Fantastic advice.

So, William sits with Carl for the full minutes of the video and clearly enjoys every moment. Well , that's the question answered, no worries.

Great advice Karl ,William looks very placid ,I would buy him tomorrow if I could lol

Another lovely video with great advice. Thank you 👍

Lovely. I’m still working on my 7 month old Springer. Hopefully he’ll be as good as Spud soon. Thanks for giving me hope..

Anybody else notice how Carl treats each dog as if it were his own ?? Good video.

hi mate am getting a working bred black lab pup next tuesday have got a 14 year old goldador but this pup will be the 1st one i have trained properly myself without other people interferring so want to do the best i can with him the intention is to go bush beating with him in a year or so and to make it slightly difficult i do have slight learning difficulties these are great videos i watch most days

How old does the puppy need to be so start doing this?

You had to recall him twice sir . If mine WAS FURTHER AWAY i could leave all 8 there and they would recall instant not twice . Consistant psychology is imperil . My military father taught me he trained military canines . Your boy is beautiful 😊

I do the same with my border collie but he has a pinch collar but sometimes it’s like he looks scared and sometimes h still goes ahead and pulls into the collar after months of me doing the same thing ?

This man speaks sense. How refreshing!

Refreshing to hear that treat training is not used to build a working relationship. Good video!

Good video , but all my dogs come running to me when they herd it haha

Thank you you explain that really well. I’ve got an eight month old American cocker spaniel. I’ll have to go back to the long lead. Finding it very hard to get her focus when other dogs are around.

My slip lead is a bit too thick and slightly stretchy and I need one that is non stretchy and that allows the dog to feel the correction a bit better. Do you recommend a particular one? Thank you.

I’ve been trying for a while now to get my 6 month old Springer to walk to heel. I’m not seeing much if any progress. It’s getting to me so much that I’m beginning to resent him and seriously thinking about re homing him. It’s a shame as he’s a brilliant dog in the house but as soon as he out he goes crazy. I’ve manage to do the training shown on this video 3 times a day for 3 weeks but I’m getting nowhere. I’ll miss him when he’s gone but I’m really unhappy with how’s things are going.

Yet another pointless dog heeling video with a perfectly already trained dog

I bought a slip lead in a local pet shop a few days ago. The shop owner asked, "why are you buying a slip lead ?" My reply - My puppy goes to gundog training. We use slip leads on gundogs because they don't wear collars when working." I'm sure he thought I was jumping on the bandwagon where certain online "dog trainers" use slip leads as a tool to correct poorly trained/poorly handled pet dogs 😆 No. She started going to gundog training from 4 months old and I trained the basics on a flat collar + clip lead. She will be 9 months old in a couple of days and has so much natural ability. Not a pure bred or pedigree gundog breed, but a 3/4 Gordon Setter, 1/4 GWP who came from an accidental litter. Her parents are just pets, but grandparents and beyond are working gundogs. My puppy has inherited her natural ability from hundreds of years of working Gordon (British and Eurpoean) and working GWP ancestry.

Being a gundog owner, I have 3 at the moment, I have always trained mine from day 1 on a s[ip lead yet we have 3 people who have dogs up my road letting their dogs pull the owners all over the place and out of control I have said to them to use a slip lead and I would help them but no they would not so I watch them being pulled up and down the road. Thank you for all the videos, can you do one on distances stop whistle please this is what I struggle with.

Thank God, you’re an actual trainer who doesn’t rely on treats like all these millions of amateurs popping up left and right who would not know what to do without a fanny pack on their hip.

she clearly already understands the command on leash - because every blow of the whistle she stops and sits - this doesn't show you how to teach the stop whistle in seconds, from the beginning.

in Seconds/? 😀

Good to see, hope we can get some follow up videos on how to progress this with the same dog

can you still get choke chains like Barbara Woodhouse used to use?

This is amazing info! Very cool, thank you!

Trainer told me this about the sniffing,,,, game changer👍🏻

Just what I need. Thank you very much.

Great video Karl ,you can see improvement in that short space of time

Brilliant. Finally a trainer showing how it’s done with a dog that clearly has no training and not using a partially trained dog to make themselves look good. I’m looking forward to the next instalment.

I love your videos! Thank you so much for the great content! Can I ask where you got your whistle/the brand?

Excellent video--thanks for sharing.

My puppy (8 month old Gordon Setter x GWP) doesn't chase anything (so far...🤞), she constantly works the air around us then points when she gets close to the origin of the scent (so far, wood pigeon, collared dove, rabbit, deer and today, a cat). I'd say she's more distracted by the scent in the air than the actual bird (or other origin). She's my first ever puppy and first working line gundog and it's beautiful to watch her natural ability developing. We've only had 6 lessons so far with a gundog trainer. Good on heelwork, great recall, now learning to turn on the whistle while quartering and she has a very natural retrieve instinct 😊
