I love the dry fart, zombie walk, lol. He’s great. I love how he shows the “sloppiness” he calls it. That’s what I want to see. How he breaks it down into baby steps. Thank you. I have a new pup. A long haired GS. He’s 4 mo. Old. Got him at 10weeks.
Larry, I love the nuance in your videos. Nuggets like the thumb to palm for the treat delivery are priceless. I learned it a few months ago but diligently succeed at forgetting it so the reminder is great. Also, love the blunt (marginally crude) humor to drive home your points. Keep it up!!!! 🐕🦺
Here's what I'd like to know...What spy webcam have you had on us when we were attempting showdog heels???? Every possible error 'we' - ok - 'I' was making, you pointed out. Amazing!
train them as you would train a taller dog (with a back brace 😂). i have a 6 month old 16lb terrier mutt and she can do a competition heel. you will be bending over a lot!
This is an excellent video, and one thing that Larry does that I love is talk about the motivation. Please watch his attitude in the way he walks, talks, moves, and even rewards. That motivation is 99.9% of dog training.
This is such a useful video! I'm considering starting a Rally-O class with my Sheltie and will definitely use this to teach him to perform a nice competitive style heel. Thanks for the information!
My dog wont stay with the treats no matter how hungry he will do the first position of going past me facing the other way but soon as i go to turn him by luring he runs away and goes to his bed, he immediately comes back does the first part then runs away again, if i put him on lead he gets nervous and wont do the furst part at all
Are you suppose to add a "command Word" when the dog turns and you step forward? Or how do you condition the dog to do this on command? Did I miss a 2nd video? Thank you for the video's by the way. Awesome work!!
Do you give a command like “Heel” or is “Come” the command? Thank you for the many videos you make. I recommend your videos to all of our clients in our vet practice who is having issues with training.
Did you know that your heeling work here has helped out me and a client’s Dog! I’m not pro trainer I just love to train and work with dogs since I was ten believe it or not. I used to be one of those people that would look at the dog while heeling. So I tried out what you said about looking forward and not looking at the dog and how to distribute treats and my god not only does it work better but I love it!
Larry I have a 3 year old GSD Loki who is high strung He used to be very good on a leash when I had a fenced in backyard for him to run in... I had to move and we no longer have a fenced in yard, Now when I walk him he pulls and lunges at every tree or bush... and acts like he is in a huge hurry for the next tree. In the house he heels very nice but as soon as we go outside he becomes a different dog and it is very worrisome I would love to be able to walk him for his health and mine but he has actually lunged and taken me down with him and I am disabled and can't handle falling at all...... Can you guide me to a video that might help with a dog like this to calm him down during walks . He was trained as he is my service dog but on these walks he seems to have lost all of his training.... He ignores treats when we ar out so there is no treat reward possible when he does do well... Please point me to a video that might help in this unique situation.... PLEASE HELP!!!! I love my dog and he is my best friend...
I am sorry to hear of your situation, especially how your dog is making you worried about getting hurt due to your disability. I can understand, because when my mom was recovering from cancer and the doctor recommended she get in some walking, my mom offered to take my 11 month old doodle puppy out for a stroll. Unfortunately when my dog saw another dog in the apartment complex that it was used to playing with, it bolted and pulled my mom so hard that she fell and hit her head on the sidewalk. After that I invested in a sport dog ecollar. (And also haven't let my mom walk my dog since, I simply won't risk that again even if my mom loves walking with my dog and she's a very sweet, generally harmless puppy who just doesn't understand her own strength and size) There's a vibration setting on the ecollar so even if you don't want to shock your dog, it still sends the message that a certain behavior isn't okay. Sometimes a shock is necessary though, like when a cat walks by and the prey drive kicks in. Through combined positive encouragement when she does well, and very conservative use of the ecollar, my dog actually has LESS anxiety now and is calmer outside because she understands what I want out of her, that she doesn't have to be "on alert" or act as the leader anymore, she can look to me and trust my judgment. She knows now that I expect what she does inside to be how she behaves outside, and it only takes one time being corrected for her to remember what not to do in the future. I thought I would never use an ecollar, I'm nonviolent and even vegan... But just as animals correct each other with mild pain when their boundaries are crossed, or even when a mother nips her puppies if they act out of line, sometimes they need physical reinforcement and a cue to understand. If you are disbaled and don't have the physical ability to correct your dog or stand strong against it's pulling, I'd hate for you to fall as my mom did, possibly ending up in the hospital or worse. I hope everything works out for you and that you never fall because of your furbaby like my mom did, but I just felt I had to share my story so you know there is an option aside from having to surrender your dog or ending up hurt yourself. 💜
"Dry fart, zombie walk". I LOVE your videos, and thanks to effectively training me, my 2 year old rescue (who is slowly transforming into an amazing dog soon to be able to run off leash) thanks you as well.
Engagement is so important as you explained Larry. You explained this very well. I am a complete head case when working with my dogs lol :) It gets great results though. Nice to see the process. Thank you :)
Why don't you have more subscribers..? You explain everything really well! I come from the hardcore Force Free world.. (Don't get me started..turned my dog into a reactive mess!!) Found a balanced dog training group and your name was mentioned! I am saving up for a Mini educator. Bandit is good in his obedience! Sit/Stay/leave/wait/recall all good but one issue he has is the barking at the door. He goes just crazy! I've tried a place command but he won't do it! Do you think a mini educator could help?
I like most of your training and use parts or most of the videos, keep up the great work. What I don't like in this one is you tell the dog to 'come' but the dog is going directly to 'heel' position. Why are you doing this when 'come' means 'sit' in front from where ever you are? Am I missing something here? I train the dog in separate sessions, heel and then come. When my dog is good at the 'front' from a 'come' then I teach the 'heel' position.
nice job on the video, love the use of an unskilled dog...but it was frustrating to see the dog do a 'come' over to the SIDE instead of in the front position...so hard to get people NOT to do that!
Nice sunglasses my guy
"This isn't petsmart" 😂love it

yeah I loved that one too

Little details make the biggest difference.... great video!!!
Dog looks super happy. It's all about the wet fart mentality.
This was the best comment.
Here's what I'd like to know...What spy webcam have you had on us when we were attempting showdog heels???? Every possible error 'we' - ok - 'I' was making, you pointed out. Amazing!
Thanks for this Video! EVERYTIME I come to your channel I learn something ! THANKS!
Nice work.
Any tips on how to reward a small dog in the heel position?
train them as you would train a taller dog (with a back brace 😂). i have a 6 month old 16lb terrier mutt and she can do a competition heel. you will be bending over a lot!
Frigin doodle!! LOL

You rock, thank you Larry!
"Like a dry fart" I'm dying 😂 I love your videos!
When do you give the “heel” command?
This is such a useful video! I'm considering starting a Rally-O class with my Sheltie and will definitely use this to teach him to perform a nice competitive style heel. Thanks for the information!
Your videos are really helpful!
Solution for luring a short dog, while keeping my position?
Love this. Perfect
thank you sir. learned a lot
When do you put in the 'heel' command
Now how do you do tg´hat with a small dog ? Let´s say Westy or Corgi sized ? I mean you´d have to bend your knees or bend over right?
My dog wont stay with the treats no matter how hungry he will do the first position of going past me facing the other way but soon as i go to turn him by luring he runs away and goes to his bed, he immediately comes back does the first part then runs away again, if i put him on lead he gets nervous and wont do the furst part at all
Great content, any reason why videos are 240p in quality?
love these videos, I have a 2 year old and a 4 month old gsd and these are some helpful
lier

I love your videos! Clear, simple, direct, funny. Perfect.
I’m slowly making my way through all of your videos.
When do you actually start giving the heel command?
What is the next step? How do you get him then to sit in position?
Did you know that your heeling work here has helped out me and a client’s Dog! I’m not pro trainer I just love to train and work with dogs since I was ten believe it or not.

This video is a huge help!! I didn't notice all the little things I was doing incorrectly. Thank you!
Love it. Immense helpful, thx
How many days we have to train regularly and how many times per session .. My gsd gets bored soon..
thank you so much. you have been really broken it down when it comes to the heel. you are a very good trainer \ teacher

Great vid. What kind of treat or candy you use for the dog?
I use mirrors to watch the dog. Or a patio door to watch the dog so I don't turn to see the dog.
Pam Longville ok but why is it not good to see the dog ?
What kind of treats do you use?
moving like a dry fart, lol!
Its hard to stand straight with a small dog
I must become a wet fart
Why are all his videos recorded by a android
nice job on the video, love the use of an unskilled dog...but it was frustrating to see the dog do a 'come' over to the SIDE instead of in the front position...so hard to get people NOT to do that!
So wet fart over a dry fart got it.
My dog doesn’t give a fuck about treats
