Great tips. Based on these, am I right in assuming your training methods are positive, reward based? I'm trying to be conscious of what content i watch when it comes to trainers as I don't agree with certain methods/equipment

The dog has to understand that the leash doesn't get tense. Once that happens, I don't have to use treats anymore, I don't have to look at the dog anymore and he can also walk forward a little and stay behind. He then thinks for himself.

You know when you say chuck the dogs food it the garden do you mean his food or treats?

Love how she rewards on the same side as the dog - so important for timing and mechanics!

Props for that bro. I'm a new trainer. Who also detests public speaking. You did well. It'll get easier. Love from Australia

You have a great way of explaining this. I have always struggled with food for my dog. I gave him one type of kibble when I first adopted him because he ate a load of rubbish. I got him to eat properly and then I saw a dog trainer who said give your dog a higher value treat when I bring him training. It was the worst trainer ever and it messed everything up. He will actually refuse and turn his nose up at most treats . I was cooking some kidney the other day and he took the bits out of his bowel and spat them on the floor. I need to be tuffer with it all again.

great information- even in the comments!

I'm enjoying your TH-cam video.

Unlike cats, it's usually best to get one dog at a time. There's such a thing as same sex syndrome and littermate syndrome. My dog training assistant years ago got all her dogs and cats in the same year but years later when it was time, she said it was the worst year ever because she lost them all in the same year. She said she'd never do that again. Hope that helps.

And you can't breed their pups as they would be cousins.

I loved your training method. You’re not resorting to harsh corrections that aren’t necessary, and at the same time you’re not bribing the dog to do what you want him to do either. You’re using patience, empathy, compassion , knowledge and skill and the dog is responding to it wonderfully. I’m A dog trainer too, and I respect your methods. ❤️🐶❤️

Great, clear video! Thanks!

Can you explain “Push the pressure towards him” please. If the lead is under tension moving your hand towards the dog releases pressure. It is a very confusing statement

Much appreciated. 👌

Hi. I always enjoy your podcast. Open trainers talk about building a good relationship between dog and owner. But what exactly does that look like? What are the things an average pet owners should do and shouldn't do to build the correct relationship? Would really appreciate a podcast fully dedicated on this topic.

Hey yea, Rocket shouts at the post man and repeats it every day, of course, closed the blind. Thanks for that dude. Ps what you done to your leg

Do you have another program you would recommend? I am in the US and love the flexibility of online lessons.

Amazing 17 minutes thanks. Keep posting dude.

I just worked with a reactive dog today (people and dogs). As in most cases, it wasn't the dog's fault. The owner never established rules, boundaries and limitations, is scared that a "no" hurts her dog's feelings, and has been in the friend-zone for the past 12 years. If owners don't establish their leadership and prove that they're in control of every situation, the dog feels the need to take over and to fill that lack of leadership. A world without a leader is a chaotic world in a dog's eyes, and a chaotic world is dangerous. The worst things, owners can do, is to give too much human love and too much freedom to a dog who isn't ready for it yet. Those are the main ingredients for nervous, fearful dogs.

You were talking about the garden. I do use a no bark or the walk is over, your choice. Now you have to follow through that very first time so they know you're not crying wolf. Next walk, even later that day, same thing. You can actually see the wheels turning - do I want to bark or do I want to keep walking with Mom or Dad? Most of the time, they actually choose the walk. If they don't, you're going back the same way you came, on the boring part of the walk they've already been on. I find it works like a charm and they're choosing it. For dogs barking in their own yard, I say no bark, that's their house or yard, you'd do the same thing if that was your house. Usually get 1 whine and we keep going on our walk - good decision or good choice! Thank you for this reactivity podcast. Hope that helps.

We had a case in Ohio where a kid who was afraid of dogs was running away from the dog. The kid was hit and killed by a car. Wouldn't want to be anyone in that situation but it never would have happened if the dog wasn't running loose. Some municipalities charge either a $1,000.00 or $3,000.00 fine if you get caught. We usually go to an enclosed or fenced in area where we are the only ones in that enclosure - not a dog park either. My sister and her dogs used to love the dog park until they almost lost the younger dog to some sort of respiratory issue - $3,000.00 vet bill for one night at the vet hospital. They haven't gone to a dog park since. Hope that helps.

When im out my collie criss is only interested in sniffing and what she wants, she refuses treats and stand for ages on a loose lead and self corrects until she goes the way im looking to go....😮‍💨

This is one of the best leash pressure videos I've ever seen. Part of the barking is their timing - like i think the dog thinks that's what they want me to do. If they could Yes and treat BEFORE the barking starts or wait 3 seconds after the bark before the dog gets the treat, but I understand what you're saying. Question: what if your dog has a collapsing trachea? Don't want to use a slip lead, anything in particular you would recommend using instead, especially if you have a leash reactive dog to people and mostly other dogs?

Your a very good trainer could do with you helping me with my two rescue dogs I recently got ,lol ,

It's demand barking for treats and attention. Annoying asf. Take the leash and cut the crap. God throw away the treats!!!

I love your content and your content is very helpful for an audience but Your TH-cam videos do not get better views because your TH-cam videos do not have a properly done SEO and the right traffic source according to the TH-cam algorithm.

You can actually pre-load the marker before hand. like when with a pappy you say "yes" wait 1-2 seconds and deliver the treat. Enough repetitions it should predict the outcome. You can also bridge that with with eye contact, by putting hands out to the side and mark/reward for eye contact. I see that to many ppl in the beginning are having a hard time doing 2-3 steps at the time. so break it down to 1 -> 2 -> 3 and then like dancing in their head repeat 1-2-3 :)

This really is beautiful work you are doing.

The marker was starting to work in the beginning when you (the trainer) was working her. Now teaching the owners. For me the dogs are a lot easier than the owners. It might be my lack of communication. I am not sure.

Would love to hear how you went from dog walker to trainer - did you work with existing dog trainers to hone the craft ?

In our puppy class we teach the owner that this puppy is their’s, and the puppy should not be touched, petted or held by strangers. If they take their puppy to say a farmers market and people want to pet the pup to politely say “the pup is in training, but thank you for asking”. This way the pup is being socialized and learning to ignore other people and dogs. Then we teach the owners basic obedience for their pups.

All dogs regardless of breed, should have muzzle training, The reasons are many, for hard to groom dogs, nippers and biters, emergency medical care at home, at the vet, if it's timid and you need to work through it in a loading situation (people are stupid) and for the reasons you've mentioned.

Overall, a good video. Replace the slip lead with a prong collar. As a 63 year old man, I've trained a pitbull that was dragging a young MMA fighter down the street, do you get the picture??? in 5-10 minutes and automatically sitting at my side when I stopped. He and his partner's jaws dropped and they were snapping photos because they were AMAZED!!! Prong collar and POPPING the collar instead of pulling on the leash. IT'S SO SIMPLE!!! It's not complicated. No food involved. It's called leadership. The turns, etc. are WAY over complicated in the video. If you know what you are doing, the "driveway exercises" are VERY simple and VERY clear that turns the dog into an AMAZING heel. Left side.... right side... doesn't matter.

WTH!! Are you sure you're a dog trainer!? This is the same thing every trainer try's to say.

I better watch this one b4 midnight, I started watching the other one thinking I will give it 5 minuters. 1 hour later and 1am later watched it all its was very good keep posting dude

I do find this video very helpful, I liked and subscribed so now I will share it with as many people as I can. Thank you for sharing your information with us.

Hey question, Rocket has a zoooooom ever time someone comes in the house when we are already in . So one of us is in and he's cool, another comes in hour later let's say and off he goes. We do put him in the crate "quiet time" we call it ha, what you think

Autopilot ahhh right, Rockets going to think WTH is he doing now

Great vid mate, meet you in london. ok he's clever but your directing that 😉😉 Go get a husky 😂😂 Another dog related sub ha

ive done lots of dog training worked with dogs all my life. I was a groomer for 30 years, but ill health stopped me working. I'm in a wheelchair 24/7. I did have 2 wolves but we lost one recently. she now 10 years old and still pulls on the lead, so I use a gentle leader, she is also very scared of traffic. Can you please give me some advice please. also she is always looking behind us. away from traffic she's pretty good Kay

I really enjoyed this video and your explanation as to why food is not your first go to. There is a lot of R+ confusing things that sometimes make no sense to me so I appreciate the explanation. Please continue to create these types of videos with your thorough explanations. extremely helpful!

The reason he pulls is the chest harness Switch to a collar and his instinct to pull will be diminished

Nice demo. This could be my 2 yo male BC. He has always loved being 'out front' and it's been a battle to get any engagement to heel when he has his mind set on a favorite destination. He is better after exercise. I am actively using this style of leash work (as much as I have the patience for) and I am seeing improvement now he is past his adolescent stage (intact male). Mind you he can do a lovely heel when in class but as soon as school is out he will try it on and pull. I soldier on.

sound levels all over the place🤨

Im loving how you introduced treats later. Not many people do that. Well explaining ❤ wishing to see more

Work on the audio

He's a vet isnt he? They should be ashamed of themselves
