- Control your dog with one hand using my LEASH LOCK. Super easy to use and it will give you the best control over your dog no matter what kind of leash you are using. It's non-aversive to the dog and makes your life so much simpler. It's an awesome tool that I've been teaching for years... It works with any breed, and size dog!
I think you'll LOVE THIS and your dog will too.

That's a genius ideal. I know most people wrap the lead around their hand to try and control the dog with one hand but can't make a quick release when needed as you demonstrated. Respectfully i'm going to call your method the RC or Cabral technique. I know the majority of people on this site that have been following you will agree. Good going.
Unbelievable. So simple, yet so effective. You’ve solved a problem I didn’t know there was a solution to. You’re absolutely the best trainer on TH-cam, hands down.
I'm a 65 year old woman with a one year old Australian Shepherd. Using this method gives me more strength and confidence. This idea is a life saver for anyone with weakened grip strength.
Seriously useful.. I always used to wrap the leash a few times to shorten the leash. This would cause the blood flow to be blocked to my hand after few minutes of walking. Robert, you cover topics that nobody talks about but extremely useful. Just like "how to pick poop" video. Thank you Robert. You are an inspiration to me
Trademark this as the Cabral Leash Lock technique. Brilliant. Love it. Edit. I used this technique last night. Absolutely perfect...
This is so so great! I'm a dog walker. Walked 3 dogs today and used this to lock two leashes in one hand and one in the other. I was still able to give individual correction to one dog on the two leash side. So simple and comfortable and SO effective. THANK YOU!!
Thank-you very much Robert for that leash lock idea. Several times my lab Scout caught me off guard and hurt my hand, when I was just holding leash around hand. Oh when I get extra $ I'm going to join your yearly membership
Im training 2 border collies.Love your videos.keep them coming.thank you
Amazingly simple but very effective. Great tip.
Your advice and guidance is priceless sir!
Thank you 👍👍
Just found this....Simple, practical, effective. Thank you for sharing.
I'd used that before, started doing it since I was 14 and based it in a knot I learned during knot class in a survival camping in the Pathfinder's Club.
Great hint Robert. That'll really come in handy for crowd walking.
How about turning a lead/leash into a harness when the dog is too keyed in on something and keeps pulling and you need to provide immediate control
A harness will make a dog want to pull. You notice nearly all these dog trainers don't use harnesses.
Simply Brilliant!
Been using this for the past 3 days, it's really great. The best thing is, when I keep him on a really short lock, he doesn't really pull, as opposed to before holding it short, he knew it would slip over time or I'd tire of gripping and he'd pull really hard. So it's improved his behaviour too. Thanks for the tip!
Really great tip. Tried it successfully out today. Thanks for sharing.
All genius things are simple! This is brilliant, been thinking all the time what is the best way to hold the leash every time I'm walking my dog
Thank you for this. Now I'm going to get my leash and practice
I was searching for a way to do that during my evening walk with my dog today, your video is right on time! Thank you!
Great idea. I just tested it on my Rottie's leash and it's so simple. Thanks for the tip Robert.
This tip has been phenomenal for us! Thank you!
This is great!
Whenever I get my new 'Best Friend', this lead hold will become my mainstay.
Dixie used to take me 'Tracking' on a 33' lead and I placed the End Loop over my Right Hand Thumb with the line running down my palm while clasping it with my fingers.
This resulted in a very secure hold which could still be released quicky when needed.
That methode left my right hand fingers available to help retrieve any slack to be loosely looped in my left hand.
I would also loop the lead once over my thumb at any point along the lead and grasp the two lengths with my fingers.
The Robert Methode is superior because of the ultra fast release and you still have control of the lead with the other hand after a release.
Brilliant!
When added lead security is needed, one could loop Robert's loop over the thumb combining both methodes.
Notice in K9 Tracking/Chase vids the handler often trails the lead's free end behind and on the ground as the K9 pulls him/her along.
If we place the loop of the Robert Methode hold over our thumb, it wont release if the lead's free end gets caught on some item (Branches/Bicycle/Lawn Sprinkler/etc) or stepped on by Following Backup.
One may loose one's thumb using the Modified Robert Methode hold, but not the K9! HaHa
Robert, I always click on your vids as soon as I see one while scanning my YT list. I'm also going through your Play List, as time permits, because your knowledge and advice are priceless and indedepenceable.
I lost Dixie a year ago after 9 years at age 14 to lung cancer and am now searching for a senior GSD/GSD-MIx to Rescue/Adopt.
I have confidence that your vids will be an important asset in that new relationship.
Your vid production quality and presentation is great and your info is outstanding!
BTW: "God's greatest gift to mankind is the dog".

Thanks Robert! I always learn great stuff from you. I'm sure I will use this often.
Just started using you method it worked lovely for me I was in real control my GSD walked really nice thanks for tip x
THAT IS BRILLIANT!!! 👍👍👍
I try that next walk looks good
Fantastic stuff robert.
I am doing and teaching this "leash lock" for 40 years.
Very slick! I love it. Thank you.
Just tried this it works great cool its amazing how easy it releases thanks Robert 👍
Very nice, simple and works well! I have been using the thumb lock for years, but it leaves a long end dangling when tethered close, so I started using a hitch called the scaffold hitch; yours is much simpler and easier, plus i like that I can make the loop bigger to take up the slack from the bitter end. Genius!
It's amazingly useful!
Love it! FYI, knots have names. I think this could be a variation on a slipped half-hitch but I'm not sure. You should submit this and get it named after you to get credit if indeed it's a 'knot'. It's actually not a knot as it's a hitch but still you should get credit. FYI, the Ashley Book of Knots is considered the 'knot bible' after it's creator, Clifford Ashley. This looks incredibly useful and easy. I've been using a flat web leash and have two overhand knots in it. The knot closest to the dog (I have GSD's) is when I want her on heel (always when crossing a street or passing someone on a sidewalk). I use the second knot for 'walkies', her signal that she's free to walk behind or check out smells, etc. I keep it short enough that she knows she can't cross in front of me as that would trip me. Works pretty well, but I like this better! Cheers!
This leash thing seems dumb but I have learned this lesson the hard way. My Rottweiler was an amazing walker and our communication was second to none. Until prey drive kicked in one day, SQUIRREL..... And now my finger points in the wrong direction permanently. 2 metal pins for 3 months because I didn't hold the leash correctly.
Brilliant - thank you.
Very nice! I will definitely use this with my Akita....sometimes he loses his mind but is getting better.
Wow...this is awesome!!
Thank you for sharing. This leash lock would definitely help when walking my Akita Inu.
Wow, definitely gonna use this technique leading my horse 😛
Cool idea thank you very much for sharing. I am saving this for reference since I am on old broad 😆 and forget things.
Ms Michal 🙃☕💖🐺🐶
F******genius thank you so much
When you turned around and we saw the back of your shirt! ❤👍
Very clever! 👍
Definitely going to start using this grip
Thanks for the magic trick sir 🎩 😄 What’s your take on the figure 8 slip lead over the nose? The obedience school here in Utah taught me that and it has a pretty good job controlling.
Very similar to the emergency release that we use with our horses!
@MBC2 Films Not sure what you mean or are implying, but I do just fine with all of my horses! Thanks!
Thank you, this will come in handy.
Nice work Rob. I like that system and a good name for it is The RC Lifeline Technique (hey waddya think?). This technique can save the life of the dog if the lead is too long and the dog wanders into traffic.
Very cool!
Wow that's cool I'm going to try that
Great new idea. Hey folks, in his book Robert recommends using 5/8” polypropylene line for leashes which IMHO are much better than webbing. Made them 4, 8, and 15’ in slips and clips.
Awesomeness
That is so cool!
Magic, thanks
Love this trick. I’d like to see you walk a wild dog with it also
Can you do more videos on border collies please?
Robert. Not sure what I am doing wrong but I have tried and the lead slips but is locked at the handle end : ) Old Woman Syndrome : ) I will keep trying , though I use a very short lead anyway .Thank you : )
What are your views on dogo argentino?
'Magic' Robert -:)
Thanks..this will ready be useful.. must go practice now.. thanks for going super slow and repeatedly.. one learns nothing from guys who do it quickly and with maybe 2 to 3 repeats..
Hi Robert, as a heads up, I can't seem to subscribe to you members only page on your website. Something seems wrong with the form. Same issue with the contact us form on your page!
I have very low vision, and am having trouble seeing exactly
what you are doing. Can you please describe the leash lock in words as the
pictures are of little value to me? I walk my dog with a support cane in one
hand, so this leash lock might be a useful thing to know. I live alone so there
is no one here to give me a description.
I really enjoy your videos, I have learned a lot from them. Thanks
Hi so best way to describe this in words... Try first with out u your dog on the leash... Take your leash and fold it in half... Now hold below the loop u have made in the leash as so you are laying that part in your hand... Now with the leash end that is connected to the dog using ur other hand not moving where your leash is in the original hand bring that part of the leash up and over the loop you have made and bring that part of the leash back down in between your middles fingers... So it kind of wraps around your hand but is over the loop... If u can figure that out and practice and let me know if I need to explain it any better just let me know...
So when this tightens the loop above motion and lead in your hand is preventing the stress pulling as that part of the lead connected to the dog is then over the loop you already have in your hand... Best of luck and hope this helps
Dani x
That is the loop and then you can adjust where you make the loop in the lead to how much freedom the dog gets from your grip to thier collar etc
The clap audio sync. lol
Forgot to edit it out. Nice catch.
I have a 2 yo yorkie. I took her to puppy training. We both learned a lot. However, leash training has been the worst. Because of her trachea I have a harness for her. I live in an apartment where there’s always a distraction. At parks nearby I have the same problem. Any suggestions?
Can a shepherd be trained in Obedience with 2 different languages simultaneously Or will it cause confusion Or the dog
We found our new Houdini
Great tip. Especially as Doctors are complaining about pulling dogs causing damage to owners hands. Hmmm, wonder why training pet dogs seems so alien to so many dog owners. Thanks Robert : )
what is this sorcery?! thx!
Hi, Robert! Would you recommend a slip leash like that for a staffie with anxiety problems? I'm working with her since july, and she has improved impressively, but she gets anxious with other dogs. I use prong collar, but I hate she ends with her neck red for abrasions
I’d try it.
@@RobertCabralDogs thank you! Great admiration.
How do I stop my pitbull puppy 4months from barking and charging at people on walks she's very socialized and when she gets close to the people she just wants them to pet her but then people are scared of her because she is charging and showing teeth at them. Any help is USEFUL I still take her out on walks and I use lots of treats to praise good behavior.
You look like Copperfield, indeed :) Thx for your great videos...
it's a good idea, but on day 1 of training, a local pro showed me in 1991 to keep the loop of a leash over my right thumb and control a dog with the left hand with the leash line looped over the left thumb and gripped securely. So if a dog yanks free of the left hand, it cannot pull the leash through the thumb of the right hand. And I never heard of a dog pulling loose from a correctly fitted Herm Sprenger prong collar against the left hand that guides him.
Do you have a link to that leather braided leash? I want one like it
Custom made. Sorry.
Good day, ive got a problem with walking on a leash with my dog. He always tends to chase the end of the leash which he always includes my hand. How can I fix this?
I have been teaching my dog down for the past 2 weeks and now he lays down when I say sit how do I fix this?
Tell him no and repeat the command you want.
Thanks!

Hey Rob ... can you just do that again....(kidding).
People might think this is silly but this is a big deal for me and my wife as we have a 110 pound young, intact, male Akita that gets triggered by other dogs. I can physically control him and we are learning, together, to control his unbridled fascination with other dogs in what he thinks is his territory (out neighborhood).
i just put the loop over my wrist and just grap the amount of leash i want with the same hand and thats it ... simple and effective
Not as useful but thanks for your feedback
Sorry Robert, I didn't get it.. could you show me one more time? #joking :D Great video as usual :)
... Do you think you can safely use this leash lock with multiple dogs (I have two and babysit a third, 2 GSDs and a Great Dane/Malamute. I use prong collars on all three) ...
I’d be careful with multiple dogs.
@@RobertCabralDogs ... Wilco ...
That's a tow truck your handling, be careful ,
👍✳️👍✳️👍✳️

We disagree here, Robert. I like the thumb lock better. You probably know it.
-
I always teach the thumb lock as it even works very well for women with thiny hands.
But also for men with big hands it is much better as it better suites the anatomy of the hand.
Please reconsider, Robert, and especially have in mind these women with thiny, fragile hands.
-
A forcefull leashpull is only for emergency or high arousal situations; just a safety measure.
Ofcourse it is much better to prevent these situations as much as possible.
-
Remenber people: a leash is not for pulling but for communicating with your dog.
Even with the biggest dogs like the BoerBoel I train I use thiny slip leashes in a thumb lock very effectively. This is much better than a huge thick leash.
-
And more important:
With learning your dog to walk on a leash your aim should always be to eventually use no leash at all. A dog should be able to walk beside you unleashed. This is called "off leash traing".

Bad .. to bad video.
This is not a good video Tip.
Is dangerous Whit a strong dog.
I think I can speak on the topic of strong dogs... t hanks for your feedback!
I have 3 Rottweilers, this works great for me, 2 weight more then I do, have to know your dogs and abilities
Learn how to control your dog without a leash.
Crazy Dogs this won’t make people follow you.
maybe just teach the dog to walk on a loose leash...
Sorry been taught leash locks years ago in a much easier fashion
Thanks for the feedback
@@RobertCabralDogs I watch all your video's and still learn from them.
All4dogs training.. how could anything be easier than this method.. just asking..
Margaret Meaker, this his method, there are other locks like a finger lock and a thumb lock.
life saver!
