The last scene, when he sits. He looks so pleased with himself. 😄 Gotta love a good boy.
I noticed that too , such a sweet boy !!!
Yes, a beautiful, proud dog.
Im so proud of him awww beautiful😊
*Archie*
Seing the dog and owners end up happy is joyful.
What a truly magnificent dog! If only the puppy class had suggested something like that harness things would have been so different. Wonderful to see how happy and relaxed the lady was with the dog, especially after being injured so badly before which would knock anyone's confidence.
Or if the trainer had even tried to work with them one-on-one until they could re-join the group class...
Yeah they should have got one on one training after the group situations didn’t work…
@@lyreparadox they did seek the help of a dog trainer to work one on one with them, hence why Victoria was there, but the classes they went to may not have had any one on one classes available.
He looked soooooooooo happy when he was running wild
A lurchers is a cross between a sighthound and another breed, usually a herding dog or terrier. Which means they have both the speed of a sighthound and the energy level of the other parent. Not easy dogs to work with, compared with the more laid-back ex-racing greyhounds.
Well almost every dog is high energy compared to english greyhounds.
@@leashr Wolfhounds and greyhounds are both hounds, he would be a chill fellow.
@@leashr my guess is greyhound, saluki and irish terrier mix ;P
I had 6 lurchers all at one time never had a problem with any of them,.
Excellent recall ,all ran free and played with each other and other dogs.
Do live in a place with a lot of excellent countryside with plenty of free space
My childhood family also had multiple dogs ,so guess just use to being a benign dictator.
during lock down a lot of folks got dogs and have no clue on what a dog needs .
Dogs need a confident yet benign leader
If you are not confident ,the poor dog feels it needs to be the leader ,which causes the dog a lot of anxiety.
They naturally recognise confidence and are only too happy to designate the confident one as trustworthy ,who look after their best interests
@@Niki-xr6cw as long as you say leader and not alpha it is finde by me. I don't know about lurchers but sighthounds are very easy dogs. If you aren't able to meet a sighthounds needs, you probably are better off without a dog bc it won't get much easier.
To the rest of us, it looks like magic, but Victoria will tell you it is common sense once you understand how your dog's mind works! I highly, highly recommend her books, especially "The Secret language of Dogs", I have spent years studying canine behaviour, but this book still helped me see things in a new light. Her guidance may be common sense, but Victoria herself is definitely magic!!
What an unbelievably GORGEOUS dog. His gait is so beautiful when he’s calm!
When you have a dog that can’t walk on a leash and then I see the owner with those extendible leashes, it makes me cringe. I think those things makes it worst.
Totally, from experience you are right, for my pup I used to use a retractable leash for training recall but soon I learnt I have to walk her on the regular leash to where we needed to go and then switch to the retractable one for training
that dog prancing around with victoria was adorable.
i respect them for straight up saying they didn't know how to teach him to walk on a leash
He prances like he doesn't weigh anything. What a pretty dog!
He looks like he’s got Afghan hound in there somewhere... he’s stunning
OOOOOF seeing any sighthound on a retractable lead causes me to shudder. BEAUTIFUL lurcher tho, i'd bet money on an irish wolfhound or scottish deerhound with a saluki cross. no wonder he's so strong and so excitable!
He's ALWAYS been a good, happy, sociable and energetic dog - he was just lacking the clear and strong leadership that he wanted and needed. Good job everyone!
Just an observation. My dog will pull at the beginning of a walk on our way to the field, but once she gets to run and get out some energy, she walks beautifully on the lead, which seems to be what is happening here. Not saying Victoria is wrong, and getting out some excess energy is definitely a good way to train, but could that be part of the "magic"?
Nah, that may be true in most dogs case but definitely not with a young healthy Lurcher. I have to take my Lurchers out every morning for minimum 2 hours, minimum distance 10miles, off lead running (i usually ride a bicycle) otherwise they have to much energy throughout the day (and still that isn't always enough). 10 minute zoomies around a field uses as much energy for a Lurcher as walking up a flight or 2 of stairs would for you (assuming and hoping you are healthy that is). Lurchers... They're a strange yet truly wonderful dog.
the only thing that happened was a front clip harness was used...thats the only reason the dog was walking well...
What she does works. Read a few publications behavioral science in dogs. It's not just the front clip they changed, that's just for better handling and not being pulled over. The behavior (What but also why?), expectation, and reinforcement is key.
Yes absolutely. Dogs anticipate exercise. Try switching up your walks; walk to the park, do some quick training games outside and go home. Mix it up randomly with direction changes, practice road sits, practice some threshold boundaries, figure 8s, sit-stops, etc so it removes the expectation of the park = fun so pulling = fun.
These owners are just so nice!
Oh, we used to have Irish Wolfhounds and this boy looked like a little mini-wolfhound! As we got older, we got smaller dogs, but I miss my Wolfhounds and I miss seeing them doing zoomies around the yard. Watching an Irish Wolfhound run flat out is something to see!
Victoria is amazing when helping people and their dogs. ❤
"Let's go!" really works! I got it from Victoria and I teach it all the time.
What a beautiful Lurcher, I'm guessing some Afghan Hound in there for the sight judging its appearance. Only came here for the Lurcher in the thumbnail lol. Lurchers are fantastic dogs but because of their HIGH energy, HIGH independence and VERY HIGH prey drive (They are working dogs after all) they need a person that knows what they are doing unless dog is already trained.
And now I am going to go cuddle up with my 2 Lurchers after a nice 5am 10mile walk :D
I have a 2Hounds harness too for my Service Dog in Training and I absolutely love it!
"that new leash is a broken ankle saver, puppy doggie walks so good with it"
I absolutely love Lurchers, they are a beautiful dog breed, and often amazingly behaved if properly trained.
I enjoyed watching Archie walking from the side of Victoria or his owner. Way to go!
When I see that dog run it's nothing more beautiful than that dog running
My Dalmatian used to pull. I use a gentle leader (collar) works perfectly
She has special hands
I was so happy for them, I became teary eyed. Victoria is awesome
Awesome. These leads work well, our cattle dog needed one to learn her manners
How cute is he 🥺🥺🥺 he literally is Falcor!
Beautiful smart doggo
Loved it. Figures of eight. Here in the states it's figure eights.
Happy Saturday Victoria have a great weekend xoxo 😘
Gorgeous dog!
Love Victoria!
I love these videos ❤️❤️❤️
Victoria I love your videos. You are amazing.
Fantastic ! Love it :)
How cute is that dog :D
I love this show
I ❤ this show!
AMAZING..WOW
She is doing God’s work.👏👏👏👏
I love this show so much and I learn and very education for kids and everyone so once they have puppy they will be good once they older xoxo 😘
Don't know if he should be fluffy, medium, and shorter or tall, skinny, and with short straight hairs. Looks odd but I love his energy.
Seems like he might have some Poodle in his DNA, he has the long Poodle mix ears. I’ve never been around a Lurcher before, but I’ve seen pictures of them. Most of them appear to have a shorter and wirey coat as opposed to a long and fluffy one. This one looks like a Greyhound and Poodle cross. He even barks like a large Poodle cross.
@@cassinihuygens72 Sounds about right! Thanks!
If he has Wheaten Terrier in his breeding it would account for the type of coat he has. Also possible that the sighthound in his breeding is Saluki, which would also account for his coat and ears.🤷🏻♀️
@@topcatwarrior I was thinking that or Afghan?
@@m6666 👍🏼
oh wow amazing! ❤❤
BeAutiful doggy!!!
I always crave your videos at night 😐🙃
You are awesome
I have been watching It's Me Or The Dog since I started thinking about getting a dog, so for about two years. Now, my dream is coming true - or, more like will come true in June. Any tips for adopting an adult dog from a shelter?
I’ll do this tomorrow for my dog. I cannot seem to deplete his energy, his jumps is mixed with a little bit of a bite , ( it’s like he jumps at you jumps multiple times like a kangaroo, while slightly nipping ,) he grazed my arm one time with his teeth because of that. And when we walk, it’s like he’s walking me. I’m gonna train that big boy tomorrow.
Omg what a Cutie ❤️
So cool
I wrote it on Facebook too. A couple of days ago, I watched a woman hitting her dog because she was sniffing around and not walking by her side. I thought Victoria would be needed because that poor dog will become aggressive and anxious. By what I'm learning watching these videos, dog seemed to be a big puppy, probably a teen, and not that full of energy but needed of stimulation and happy because she was going out. I found the problem in the woman, she seemed inflexible pulling the leash all the time and yelling "be by my side". And this video shows it's not that difficult to teach a dog how to walk in a leash... I feel pity for that poor dog and the hard no dog life she may be living.
my lurcher just barks at people and dogs I can’t even walk her anymore.
What is that kind of lead called and where can I get one?
Retractable leash NOOOOOOOOOO
Yay!😍
1 year golden retriever is taking the lish of by him self and pulling please give me some tips on for my pup
Cam you make more full Episode
They talk about "double leads" and "figures of 8", but not mention that the dog is actually being led by treats. It's also important that he released a lot of energy beforehand and there are no strong stimuli around like other dogs or runners. Kind of disingenuous tbh.
this isnt the full show so it may be discussed there
I loved how positively the episode ended but I would have like to see how you would solve this problem if you are determined on using a y-harness and determined not to train with physical tools like the gentle leader.
What we've learned was just stop moving, or even walk backwards if the dog pulls. He wants to go a certain direction, and pulls that way, and if you stop (and do that consistantly for a long time, think months, it took our dog a few months to stop pulling, and he still sometimes forgets when he's very excited) he will stop pulling because it doesn't get him to where he wants to go. Ideally he should look back to you, or even walk back towards you, but for our dog, we've settled on a relaxed lead. So long as the lead is hanging rather that pulled tight I'm fine with it. It depends on the type of dog and character, our goal was a relaxed walk, not a dog who walks by our heel, so we're fine with where our dog is at. :)
@@AnnekeOosterink I've done this with my dog but I don't like that it focuses on punishment. I also feel like it is not an efficient eay to teach the dog as it really does take months and makes the dog work out what we want through frustration. Even if I give them a treat at the end, it still used to always cause frustration for both me and the dog.
@@jaanaenkerro445 our dog picked up what we wanted very quickly it was just that any time he got excited he forgot. It will always, always, take months to really ingrain certain behaviour.
The reward for not pulling is walking on, no need for treats. As soon as the line is relaxed again you start walking again, so you walk backwards for a bit until he comes to you, and you immediately walk forwards again.
And of course there's no punishment. There is zero need for punishment, he's not doing anything bad, he needs to learn to control himself. He gets to where he wants to go, but only if he doesn't pull, it's a self control issue, not a bad behaviour issue. And you can't teach self control with punishment, because that means you control the dog's behaviour, rather than the dog himself having control over his own behaviour.
And of course teaching self control takes months, self control is hard. But it means the dog learns to control his own behaviour.
We taught him not to grab food immediately when it's in front of him by not giving it to him if he rushes up to it and puts his face in the bowl. He gets his food if he waits calmly. The 'reward' is his food, the 'punishment' is he has to wait so long as he tries to get into the bowl before it sits on the ground. That is also self control rather than us controlling our dog. He now can calmly wait for food.
He learned that being busy and jumping or barking or rushing to the bowl just didn't get him what he wanted, and he learned that as soon as he backed off I lowered the bowl again.
The goal is not a dog who is only obedient when you're there to keep him in line, the goal is a calm dog who can control his own urges.
@@AnnekeOosterink Withholding a reward is punishment. In the case of leash walking both stopping and not continuing to walk are punishments.
@@jaanaenkerro445you can't train a dog with literally zero discipline. Discipline is not cruel and there is no reason not to use it. Refusing to discipline your dog by even just withholding something is just making it harder for the dog to understand what you actually want. Even reward based training still uses forms of discipline becauee it's pretty much a necessity
That's without distraction what if with distractions?
I’ve been watching your videos and I have neighbors that has dog I teach the dog to stay
I tried that with my dog and it doesn’t help haha I also have a harness like this, but she still pulls, also tried changing directions or just stopped until there was no tension on the leash….I tried a lot
And she isn’t interested in food when we are outside
He's so beautiful 😍
❤❤❤❤
My favorite dog is a husky
the deal with this video is that those types of harnesses are really bad for a dog's gait and no it does not solve anything, the dog probably complies because the trainer is in a controlled environment without any distractions, same type of pulling will persist on the way back home. and no, you cannot keep using that type of harness forever, and yes heel training takes forever.
When was Victoria nearly knocked down? 1:11 here? 😐 So dramatic. 😄
I don't understand how that works. I can't picture that working for our dogs. I wish it would though. Maybe I will try it again in the summer when the terrain will not be so hazzardous.
Try it the next time you walk your dog. It's good for you both!
Those harness work so well. Keep trying with it.
less than 30 seconds in as usual I have an opinion. which is this: it never surprises me or amazes me when people can't gain control of a dog on a retractable leash. SMH
He looks like a golden retriever mixed with a schnauzer
Is that just called a chest harness?
I think it's also called a no pull harness
WHY have such dogs if you can't handle their energy levels
It never ceases to astonish me how utterly lazily inept and ignorant dog owners can be.
If you can't control the dog, keep them off the path.
Period.
Yeah but it makes it hard when puppy school tells you they won't accept that behaviour. That's what puppy school is supposed to help you with. This poor couple haven't had any help, yet the dog still needs to be taught and walked in the previous video you can see they're at their wits end 😢
this one drill won't 'fix' the problem. I know this is a tv show and done for entertainment but I think people think that doing this in a park once with a few sharp turns will make their dog heel in any situation. try bringing other dogs and other distractions into the mix. I always say when teaching a new behaviour duration and distraction will proof the behaviour and this isn't something that can be done in a days work.
This is only a short clip of the whole episode. Watch the entire episode.
This is always such a simplistic show. Tom Davies is the bomb!
@@CleverClover2023 I don’t honestly need to… she has always contradicted herself especially calling herself positive only! I love using positive reinforcement but I don’t see her working with Rottweilers, GSD and malinois. You need to find motivation by food, toys and praise to increase the behaviour you WANT and positive punishment for behaviours you DON’T want. This training method has such a higher success rate and can actually broaden a dogs life. The only thing purely positive seems to increase is the practice of avoidance on walks, lack of guidance and direction from handlers and an increase in death of dogs from livestock attacks in wales where they have banned the use of e collars… going off on a tangent but I wish they choose more credible and experienced behaviourists for these shows. Will atherton, Micheal Ellis etc.
@@lindagray1809 yes he is so great also Jas from the Netflix show Canine Intervention! AMAZING show with someone who has worked tirelessly in the field. Just remember Victoria is an actress with not much in the way of knowledge or experience and to be honest it shows
One of the first!
I like when my dog slightly bites me, then I feel more lively and energetic!
earlyy
First
First lol
first
People like this should not be allowed to own dogs!
So you're a trainer but when you get a difficult dog you like "we can't have that here"? Then you're a failure, not a dog trainer. Sorry but this kind of annoyed me. It's like me being a car mechanic but and saying "nah bro, you don't understand. I only fix cars that are not broken".
If it was that easy then every dog would be perfectly trained after this "one simple trick". It's smoke and mirrors, clever editing and wishful thinking. It takes months, if not years of hard work to train a dog. If you don't want to put the effort in, don't get a dog.
My border collies has same problems 🥲🥲🥲🥲I sent him to school,at the end it was same,save me please 🥲🥲🥲🥲
