Holy Cow. LOVED Tom Rose's "Coda". I AM SO EXCITED to start this TOMORROW with my GSD. I KNOW 100% he will LOVE this!!! Last night, he went NUTS trying to track a fox in our neighborhood--I didn't know THAT was what he was doing, I only knew he immediately went into crazy high drive when we walked out the door, but his nose wouldn't leave the ground (even though overall obedience is great). On our way home, a beautiful fox ran in front of us--that was clearly what he'd been sniffing the entire excited walk. SO GLAD YOU'RE DOING A SERIES, my German Shepherd 💖 Dog thanks you in advance!!!!!
Hey, thanks for this video. I have 6 months old German shepherd and thanks to your videos I was able to learn and then teach her so much. I honestly don't know what I would've done without you.😂😂❤️
I always enjoy your videos and they have helped me a lot with my Mal. I’ve also shared many of them on other Social Media sites with other owners. Thank You.
My Rottie caught on to this so fast and she loves it! She has always been very interested in scents (finds all the dead things 😂). This is a much better outlet for her scent energy!
Tracking Box, is it always placed in the same spot until your dog pulls you towards that area every session or do you set it up in a different location every training session & have your dog pull you towards any area they see marked w/ flags? Thanks so much.
@@NateSchoemer will this be uploaded to TH-cam? I see a ton of Tracking videos that start with the scent pad, but no one has any videos what to do after that. Thanks!
No need to comment, Nate. But have 4 flags, taking my stinker boy working line GSD out to do this RIGHT NOW. Today or in next couple days, will share a video of how it goes. I am 100% confident my love-boy will LOVE this, I'm very excited to try. Honestly, no idea where we'll go further, but trusting your continued videos will direct us in the future using this tracking box idea. But I KNOW this initial tracking box idea will get two thumbs up from my boy, lol!!!
Actually: if there's a time lag between when you do another video on the tracking box, can I just keep increasing the size of box until the next video on the subject?
Just got back from doing this, German Shepherd loved this exercise, lol--can't wait for the next steps (next videos on beginning tracking), but going to incorporate this into our daily "park walk-ball throw-obedience exercises" until then 😝
Yes, this is for sport. Search and rescue training is usually taught differently. However, many believe that this training will help a dog learn search and rescue training faster than dogs without this training. I plan on doing a search and rescue series in the near future. Cheers!
Yeap, Sorry Nate but Tom Rose seems to be the one to listen to! There are so many tiny details that makes such a huge difference when we get to the advanced level of tracking. Tiny details that so often are overlooked by "experts" with degrees and diplomas from I don't know where!..
I have a 5 year old cane corso (basically knows how to sit and that’s it) what steps should I take in order for him to be capable of training like this and is he too old?
Your videos have been my go to. Have you considered making a video (or do you have any content) outlining socialization and training priorities in the order they should learn from week 8 and on? It would be nice to know how to structure the training of a puppy for obedience as well as advanced skills. I have a blue heeler puppy coming home in 2 weeks. I plan on him going with me everywhere so I know socialization as well as training are critical especially during his first few months. I also know learning one command first helps build for additional commands. So having that structure would be awesome. Thanks for all that you do.
Thanks! I would suggest training in the order that I demonstrate in my basic obedience series, which is designed to be studied and watched in order. th-cam.com/video/cc8hX4lCGiY/w-d-xo.html Also, here's an article on socializing: www.nateschoemer.com/post/how-to-properly-socializing-your-dog Cheers!
Thank you for the video it was very good. I was wondering when adding article indication to tracks, do you use back chaining for the article and then teach the track, or do you not not use back chaining for article indication? Thanks
Dear Sir I have 100's of videos to learn tracking but couldn't not able to understand why that box is made, your objective is to make others learn, Thank you so much, waiting for next video on this series
Would it be better to do this with higher value treat or do you not want it to supersede your scent? My GSD doesn’t always engage well with kibble when there’s other more interesting things to smell outside
Just watched a past video about training pups. But what if I want to train I almost fully grown dog and just want to sharpen the commands. Like so that the dog listens quickly and instantly. Edit: you are an amazing trainer btw has helped a lot!
@@NateSchoemer this was amazing thank you, as I was training him. People were going out and my dog ran out 😀. I think I traumatised many people..... that was great. Now I need to train on boundaries... again. I don’t understand, he seems to get it but sometimes he just doesn’t want to listen
Read through the comments, didn't see my question: Is it okay to put my dog into a "down" at a distance while I set up the box in the beginning? Or is that a bad idea if I want to continue tracking work? This exercise looks like a lot of fun to learn & do with my German Shepherd, looking forward to your next videos on tracking, absolutely awesome. PS: going to buy your book on Amazon in paper copy so I can highlight & mark up pages, lol
Yes, I believe you can put your dog in a down while you set up the tracking box. Some may say that the dog shouldn’t see the setup, but I never had any issues with it. You can always do a few without the dog watching the setup to be sure. Cheers!
I just found you a few day ago and I'm very impressed by your work! It helps me very much and even as a non-native speaker I can understand you very clear, keep up the great work! I'd be very happy if you could make a video about a "try again" marker in the future. For example I say "sit" my dog lays down and instead of correcting my dog I say "wrong" or whatever and they know this was not the behavior I asked for, so they try something else. I really like this concept because I don't like correcting my dogs when they messed up a command because this can take out fun and excitement out of our training sessions and I want a dog who isn't afraid to fail and who is eager to try again and again. I saw a lot of trainers use a "try again" marker but I haven't really gotten behind on how to condition them, would appreciate a video on this topic :)
Thanks! It's called a non-reinforcement marker and it's used for mistakes. However, a lot of trainers will pause for a moment when the dog made the mistake, then re-command. Once the dog does it correctly, they mark and reward. For example; you say "sit" and your dog downs instead. You pause for a second or two, then re-command "sit", the dog sits then you mark and reward. If you want to use a non-reinforcement marker, then just start using it while training. For example: you say "sit" and your dog downs instead. You say your non-reinforcement marker, then re-command "sit", the dog sits then you mark and reward. Cheers!
Thank you for these videos. I’ve trained my service dog and really enjoy teaching him new commands. Im getting ready to start classes via CATCH. But for my SD license which college would you recommend for that training??? Also what do I need to do to become a master trainer?? Im going to be using my training to help my bothers and sisters veterans
Thanks, Dan! I've trained a handful of Cane Corsos, but haven't taught them tracking. Give it a shot, I'm sure they have what it takes to learn. Also, I have a friend who is an excellent trainer and has done a lot of work with Cane Corsos. You can check him out in this interview I did with him: Interview: th-cam.com/video/JpNhfqD7NEE/w-d-xo.html His TH-cam channel: th-cam.com/users/OscarMoraDogs
What if your dog is not food motivated? If they’re a spaniel who will get distracted by wildlife smells the moment they put nose to the ground, and tracking wildlife is self rewarding ?😬
Going to do this with my German Shepherd (will be genetically"easy" & fun for him), BUT could I also do this with my neighbor's Husky I've also been working with? I routinely walk with the neighbor & her Husky. I've been teaching obedience to the Husky, and I alternate ball throwing off leash with both boys. Could this be taught to a breed other than GSDs, Mals, Beagles, Dachshunds, buy to other off-breeds we don't necessarily expect to be "great tracking" dogs? Looks do fun, I KNOW my German Shepherd will LOVE IT!! Thanks for making beginning tracking accessible to put owners!💖🌞
Hi, i have a german shepherd 6 month and we want to go a walk with him without strap. What i should learn to my dog? Could also to do it without reward (food)? Btw nice video ❤️
I knew nothing about this. Thank you for this and thank you Tom (7.48 I think) Could I ask if all dogs should enjoy this or do you need to first observe and check a dog for how interested they are in using their nose. Is it case that some dogs are more scent orientated than visual and others more sight orientated?
8 week old female puppy starts today. Would be a touch to show a supply list and possibly a sponsor will arise. Hoping that by posting the progress will attract those that will help.
Hi Nate, great video as always, I do have a quick question though. Would this method work to teach a dog real world tracking? for example search and rescue work?
I love your videos, Nate! I was wondering if there is an effective way to train tracking without leaving food on the ground as I would like to train my dog to only take food from my hand or out of his bowl and not think he can just eat whatever he finds laying on the ground. Thanks!
My dog is not food motivated at all. What can I do for her to get her tracking on a line. Should I skip the tracking box and lay a short line with one article and her toy under it. That way, I can mark the behavior when she gets to the article?
I wouldn't recommend that approach because it could cause your dog to rush the search for the article, leading to ineffective and inaccurate tracking. I would dedicate a few months to focus primarily on tracking training, ensuring that the dog receives all their food during tracking exercises. If tracking becomes the sole method for your dog to eat, then they will associate tracking with mealtime. This means you will be able to use food effectively as a reward during tracking. :)
Hey I was wondering can you make a video on what to do if I’m playing with my dog in my not fenced in yard and my dog runs away (this has never happened but I want to know what to do if it does) for example I’m playing fetch outside in my not fenced in yard and my dog sees a cat and runs to chase after the cat and then he won’t come when I call him what should I do to get him back safely?
Yes, you would want a long line. If you want true off-leash reliability, then you would need a remote collar. You can learn how to use one here, from Michael Ellis. leerburg.com/ellis-ecollar.php?gclid=CjwKCAjwj6SEBhAOEiwAvFRuKA3K2XFsQCo6g_YNkPxcrcQBYVYuFHA2iZKgzxuT0KOAPJRIFqMn4xoCnbQQAvD_BwE
I need to ask two other quick questions, I hope that's okay :) 1. When training my dog a go pee or poo command, do I just say the word right before they do it until they connect the word with the behavior or do I mark and reward when they are doing it? Because I'm scared that the dog will stop the behavior and get the reward, and that's not what I want. And second, when I build up a correction marker, can/ should I reward when the dog is following the marker? For example my dog stares at a cat, I say "no", my dog has learned that " No" Means to stop something and get away, so my dog stops staring at the cat and goes a step back, should I reward the dog for following the correction?
1. Just take your dog outside and say the potty command. You can praise your dog while they are going potty. You don't have to mark and reward. 2. No. You can praise the dog for making the right decision, but you don't want to give a reward. The reason is that your dog may offer up the bad behavior, so you say no, they stop and get the treat.
Sir I suffer from Anxiety disorder n have underwent lot of treatment but couldn't able to come out of depression .. If you can help with this series I will be very grateful to you
Hey Nate, I was wondering do you know of any business that will give me a dog to train into a service dog? What I mean is they give me a free dog and I keep it in my house for how ever long it takes to be trained as a service dog then I give it back fully trained and they give it to someone who needs a service dog?? If you know of any that would be super helpful! Also if you know of any would they give me a like crate for the dog or would I have to buy the crate, food, treats, etc? Also this dog was not in this video but I just wanted to say I LOVE LOVE LOVE that little white dog you trained the small one that's all white he/shes super cute!
I'm sure a lot of places will offer something like this if you can prove to them that you can train the dog. I would suggest reaching out to a few places to see what they say. Cheers! :)
HELPING A SICK DOG. This isn’t a problem for me right now. I think it important that a pet, dog, cat, horse be trained to indicate pain and where it is. Without in anyway using pain to teach. Can you teach a dog the concept of sickness, pain and ask it if it is sick or In Pain? Can you teach a dog to respond if you point to a part of the body and say does it hurt there? Thank you
Dogs can pick out multiple smells individually unlike humans who only smell all scents combined. As explained in the video, the dog is learning the association between the scent and taste of the reward with the scent of the human.
If you place small piece if food deep into heel it becomes a REWARD not the goal. If dog is scenting the food, use low/no odor food Re: the tracking box…it's an association…
I am worried that teaching tracking would encourage my dog to eat random things off the ground. She already has a tendency to do so. Is it something to be concerned about or are the flags enough of an indicator that the exercise is separate from 'real life'?

Superb video! Hope to see more on tracking from you!
Thank you! Will do! :)
Great video again!!! This is for the sport obviously, would search and rescue be the same concept or totally different?
Great question!
Here for the response
Yes, this is for sport. Search and rescue training is usually taught differently. However, many believe that this training will help a dog learn search and rescue training faster than dogs without this training. I plan on doing a search and rescue series in the near future. Cheers!
Never did this with my dogs
Very interesting and understandable
Thanks Nate
Thanks for sharing and watching! :)
How do you know when they are done with the scent pad? Like how do you know when it’s over? Do you let them eat all the food?
Great video! Also this is circle park right down the street from me 😁
Lol! Nice! Looks like we are neighbors!
Awesome video.keep up the good work.
Thanks, will do! :)
Yeap, Sorry Nate but Tom Rose seems to be the one to listen to! There are so many tiny details that makes such a huge difference when we get to the advanced level of tracking. Tiny details that so often are overlooked by "experts" with degrees and diplomas from I don't know where!..

I am hoping to get a rough collie soon (don't know what gender), any name ideas??
tinyurl.com/yytj6x9r
I need to ask two other quick questions, I hope that's okay :)
1. When training my dog a go pee or poo command, do I just say the word right before they do it until they connect the word with the behavior or do I mark and reward when they are doing it? Because I'm scared that the dog will stop the behavior and get the reward, and that's not what I want.
And second, when I build up a correction marker, can/ should I reward when the dog is following the marker? For example my dog stares at a cat, I say "no", my dog has learned that " No" Means to stop something and get away, so my dog stops staring at the cat and goes a step back, should I reward the dog for following the correction?
1. Just take your dog outside and say the potty command. You can praise your dog while they are going potty. You don't have to mark and reward.
2. No. You can praise the dog for making the right decision, but you don't want to give a reward. The reason is that your dog may offer up the bad behavior, so you say no, they stop and get the treat.
@@NateSchoemer thank you so much!

Hey Nate, I was wondering do you know of any business that will give me a dog to train into a service dog? What I mean is they give me a free dog and I keep it in my house for how ever long it takes to be trained as a service dog then I give it back fully trained and they give it to someone who needs a service dog??
If you know of any that would be super helpful!
Also if you know of any would they give me a like crate for the dog or would I have to buy the crate, food, treats, etc?
Also this dog was not in this video but I just wanted to say I LOVE LOVE LOVE that little white dog you trained the small one that's all white he/shes super cute!
I'm sure a lot of places will offer something like this if you can prove to them that you can train the dog. I would suggest reaching out to a few places to see what they say. Cheers! :)
@@NateSchoemer Okay I have been trying to find one like that but I cant seem to find one any suggestions on what to look up or anything?
I'm here looking for jokes about "outside the box"
HELPING A SICK DOG. This isn’t a problem for me right now. I think it important that a pet, dog, cat, horse be trained to indicate pain and where it is. Without in anyway using pain to teach.
Can you teach a dog the concept of sickness, pain and ask it if it is sick or In Pain? Can you teach a dog to respond if you point to a part of the body and say does it hurt there?
Thank you
I want to know how you will let your dog to detect unwanted person.
Such as a felon search? I'll be making a series on that in the future. :)
@@NateSchoemer ok. Thanks
what are your tracking scores?
The dog is only tracking the food its used to get as a treat, not your sent as the dog knows your cent.
This is a professional
Scent
Dogs can pick out multiple smells individually unlike humans who only smell all scents combined. As explained in the video, the dog is learning the association between the scent and taste of the reward with the scent of the human.
If you place small piece if food deep into heel it becomes a REWARD not the goal. If dog is scenting the food, use low/no odor food
Re: the tracking box…it's an association…
7:58 Great way to get a dog sick and die because stomachache.
I am worried that teaching tracking would encourage my dog to eat random things off the ground. She already has a tendency to do so. Is it something to be concerned about or are the flags enough of an indicator that the exercise is separate from 'real life'?
what if the dog gets a habit of taking whatever food he finds in grass
Dogs are very situational. You can also correct them for picking up random things from the ground if you haven't told them to track.
Just looks like you walked a dog to some treets in the yard.
🤣
