The whole thing is spot on but what he says at 20:00 genius 😊
Thanks. Glad you found it educational
Hans has forgotten more than most people know !!! Great Trainer , Good Man and always there to help with your Dog !!!
You are the first or the only one (other than me) who says it. If you start using treats to tarin a dog and then you need to fade out the treats, then why don't you start the tarinng without it in the first place. Also, I agree very much that if you can't train a dog without treats, you should not call yourself a dog trainer. Great video.
Actually it was Gabor (the other guy) who formulated it this way.
Yup! Honestly, I've found that most dogs react better to just being praised & told they're a good dog when they're training..
@@mikefrost1312 It's the most effective, innate, and natural form of rewarding a dog.
They've done neuro studies now that showed for the vast majority of dogs, praise and touch by their human was as rewarding, if not even more rewarding, than when they were given food or toy rewards.
Glad you saw that study. Cookies and toys are not the optimal tool to use when teaching dog
Use all the tools in the toolbox and use markers so they all blend together..praise prey food toy aggression grips all as rewards
I cant’t get enough from Hans. I just learned my stop barking correction or lack there of has been completely nonexistent for years. Thanks for the content.
Well keep watching there is more coming.
I have not seen another TH-cam "trainer" talk about Out of Drive training. None talk about leadership. I have your obedience training video, it's great! Sooo helpful, thanks!--
I appreciate that!
It’s sad what is going on in the dog training world
amazing both of u thanks
You are very welcome!
Hans is my eye openig person in my life with my zhechoslovackain wolf-dog. She is 3 and half years old. First dog. Still having live lessons. My intuition brought me to essential understanding what Hans thought are in these interviews.
Thank you both!
Lots of gems dropped here
Thanks.
It is easy to live 70 years and pick a gem now and then. :)
😮 hope it is the right emoji , great video.
Mr Hans may I suggest a video on first aid for these great dogs most people don’t think about this subject
Good idea.
Good idea!!
Every video gives me insights, different ways of thinking about psychology and events.
That is what it is all about. ;)
Is applying the squeeze method a good idea after the correction?
Not all the time as a rule but yes, absolutely. if the dog needs calming down.
Thanks, I really appreciate this content.
Thank you.
yes
People act reactive they have to be desensitized or trained too correct?
I don’t go anywhere with out a tram kit for my dog
I should get one too for the dog and person.
If your dog does something because you tell him to ( not using a treat to lure him into the position or behavior ) then that is NOT bribing. He did it without expecting a treat or anything. However, there is nothing wrong with Rewarding the dogs good behavior After the dog makes the decision to be obedient. No not all the time but intermittently. Would you go to work and not expect a paycheck at the end of the week. Be fair too people. Animals are not robots that we can just manipulate and control without any thought of their emotions. They’re sentient beings. Please don’t forget that!

A lot of these things are lost in the terminology, reactive is very broad as all animals will react the main criteria is how sensitive is the trigger, in dogs these things have a lot to do with breeding and genetics in how sensitive the trigger to the reaction is, such as Greyhounds compared to Mastiffs, GHs and their crosses and Ive owned many over 60 yrs in dogs, they are sensitive and easily triggered and go from zero to 100 in the blink of an eye I refer to these differences in sensitivity as nerve strength, Ive had many Mastiff crosses for hunting and they can be just as drivey to catch/kill without the hair trigger, Greyhounds were bred for 100s of years to explode out of the starting boxes and go like the clappers for a minute this creates a very easy easily triggered dog to movement, many extreme high prey drive dogs have sensitive triggers and some of these dogs can panic easily, dogs don't apply a lot thought its automatic responses action-reaction like a switch on/off, you can condition dogs to not react to certain things but the sensitivity of the internal trigger is either born or has been a learned behaviour around certain objects or scenaros.
A good one form Ray Allen covers human and dog
👍
One of my dogs went to a REN fairs was fine with all kinds of outfits. But a kid in a jester hat she wanted to kill.
A dog brought up on a chain can be more reactive based on minimum exposure.
Natural feed raw
Goof to hear
The trash bag scenario would not be reactive, that would be nerves. Unstable.
Reactivity basically describes "overreaction" so the horse "overreacting" to a plastic bag is reactivity. That is how I read it and that is what I was told.
Personal protection dogs are reactive.
Sport dogs can't be reactive based on rules , points and a game.
