I think some funny but not cheesy dog training / trainer shirts and hats would be great 😂 or some patches or gear for the dogs. Just saying I would support your merch because your training videos have really helped hone in some initial skills for my SDIT Skye. She is so much better behaved than a lot of dogs we see in public and she is just at the beginning of her service dog training.
Unfortunately, I recently had the 'Come' command not work in a horrible situation. I have not completed the 'come' training. I had my dog leashed and was taking to Petco for nail trimming. As we entered the store, Neo got spooked and slipped his collar. Off he went. He almost came to me a few times, but people meaning well were chasing after him and he kept running. He then ran out into rush hour traffic and was hit and rolled under a truck. Fortunately, mostly superficial wounds and a minor pneumothorax. I had the collar 'two-finger' tight and thought he couldnt' slip it. Lessons learned. 1. Acclimate the dog to new situations more slowly, 2. Use the leash on the harness he won't slip and 3. Complete 'come' training, especially in distracted areas. Folks, please don't learn this the hard way, your dog might not be so lucky.
What i love about your videos is, its a genuine dog training method. And doesnt involve selling products. And im a full supporter of effort based training not the easy and convenient ways such as e colar and etc as you said Glad i found this channel. 🍻
on the other hand, be open to other people training their dogs the way they want to be trained, or perhaps the way the dog needs to be trained using training tools doesn't mean that you are a horrible, lazy person. in fact, going out and buying good training tools, learning how to use them properly, and putting in the time and effort to accustom your dog to it and work the hours to train cannot at all be attributed to laziness if people want to put in the hours and train without training tools, that's completely fine. but if someone wants to use training tools to make their lives easier (because in the end what's wrong with making your life easier?? life is hard enough, especially as an adult) it's just as fine. i don't necessarily hate your opinion, but it's just unrealistic to say that you don't believe in people training their dogs in a way that makes their life easier. and honestly, if you have a problem with it then you're gonna have a lot of problems dealing with people socially because you're just not open-minded. if it's not hurting anyone, who cares?
I ended up adopting a super energetic aussiedoodle a year ago (he’s now two years old) who stops listening and bolts once locked on to a distraction. Recall was otherwise okay-ish, but I’m starting over with this method-already seeing improvement. Thank you for your insights!
I think I now hear you when you say you have to keep going with the ‘go get’ method. That’s my task now with my 6 month old labradoodle who is inconsistent with the recall but to date, I have been inconsistent with go get. From now on, I will do - he is consistent in the house but get on grass and all he wants to do when I give “come” command is to give me the finger and pull up grass!!
Absolutely spot on. With our Great Dane, if we had to 'go get' we would grab her back legs and 'wheelbarrow' her back to the position we called her from. You can't drag a reluctant dane back to the start. You CAN wheelbarrow them. And the indignity also hastens the "resistance is futile" message. This technique from my Dad. Well done for telling us all the truth about training.
This info is so good. I just stumbled upon this video for my 7 month old GSD. This channel definitely needs more subs. Thanks for the info and the method Mr. Beckman
I've started to use this method with my 20 month old yellow lab. I hope it's not too late! He's doing great inside. I had already started "touch" and "here" with him with good results. I like these instructions because they are easy to follow. You're very clear about what to do. I feel more committed to working on recall so some day....I can feel more comfortable with him off leash!
how's it going? I am about to start this with my 7 mo black lab. She shows up 90% of the time with just her name and the promise of a treat, free-running around our mountain property. I use "let's go" to mean follow me but have not ever trained the touch or said "come" .
I don’t even own a dog and haven’t for over 20 years, but I had to subscribe. I have even been inspired to visit my local dog shelter a few times recently. I am in no rush to get a dog, but am looking for “the one.” I think I may have found her. Love the simplicity of your explanations of the training method/process and how straight forward and transparent your videos are.
I love this I'm at the stage where with a leash my dog was doing great with recall but without it a mess so this really helps and I started doing it this morning and there was progress slowly but surely will get to it with distractions around. The idea is so simple but it didn't hit me till now.
I paused the video at 2 minutes to teach my dog the come command incorporating her having to book my hand. It took straight up a minute. Then we incorporated the wait command and it was beautiful. We've had issues recently with telling her to come and she'll stop about two weeks from where we want her to go. I'm excited to try this on a leash outside now!
I completely see what your saying. The consistency is key with all of these methods. I can relate to you because i see the same thing when "training" my dog. The best results were always after the consistent time and effort that is being put in. It is similar to raising ones kids. I agree that "The Boss" needs to be established, and the boss is the one responsible to initiate training, new commands, etc. I see it very similar, thank you for your time. Anything I can do to help you out, let me know.
I adopted a male German Shepherd on April 1st of this year. He really does good on his training. But for some reason he just didn't want to come to me when I called his name and said come. So I tried your technique of saying his name and then touch. To my surprise he did it on the first time. Plus he does it every time now. Even when I am over a hundred feet away from him. He comes up and touches my hand with his nose. I never heard of this technique in dog training. I have been training dogs since 2003 and he was the first dog that didn't come. I have always used positive reinforcement. But he just didn't like the phrase come I guess. This works out wonderful. I am going to tell people who have trouble getting their dogs to come to watch your videos. Thanks for the help and the great video.
Absolutely brilliant method. I have got to stage 3 in a month with an adult ex- street dog who had no previous training. I like the idea of fetching them. It puts in place a clear action plan. And BTW, my other dog has been joining us and her recall (although fairly good to start with), has also improved so she is almost 100% compliant. Thank you.
When I train my GSDs I was taught that once they know the command or know what it means to ONLY say it once. Repeating yourself is allowing them to answer to the command when they want to. They learn that they have more time after the initial command.
Grabbing the dog by its collar when it comes to you - Just to note that I'm pretty much sure that this action made my dog regress back to ignoring her name and the command COME. Once we stopped grabbing her by collar again (Not aggressively) when we gave her the COME command she started to acknowledge us again. We had our dog from aged one, so maybe she was grabbed by her collar aggressively and pulled around prior to this I don't know, but I just thought I'd put this out there. What works for some dogs doesn't work for all.
I'm going to try this. We have a Husky/Shepherd mix and he only comes if no one and no dogs are around. He runs to the neighbors when they are outside and totally ignores the command. He follows it beautifully if he is in the yard with no distractions.
curiosity.. when you "go and get", how do you keep it from becoming a game of "run from the boss" and evade. Seems like this could be its own reward (play time) for the dog if you are not careful.
You then make that game an always lose. The dog runs, you run it down. You take physical control and you return to where you were at the start. It works for the same reason your dog doesn't play tug of war if you never let him win.
@@t.lledsmar6052 unfortunately we have one that thinks it's a game. I knew it was going to be a challenge owning a dog, and I'm up for it, but I'm 65 years old, and I have a disability. I don't have the capacity to 'run him down'. In the back yard he just runs around and I can't catch him. I'm open to suggestions! 😏
@@rachelm7525 you let him get too fast before doing it, I have one that got too fast. Do this in a confined space that he can't run away. (I use a 12x12 horse stable) might have to clear out the garage or take him to a fenced area, I've also used 10x10 chain link play yards. Just bring him right to the spot you called from. Once you get 100% recall in there move to progressively bigger areas. Make sure he knows you mean business when you go and get, make sure he knows how much he's loved when he does it right. You can work in a 30 or 50ft check cord once you start going out to bigger areas, this will help him immensely.
Thanks for this! I definitely will be working on this with my girl! Her come is 50% there until a good smell is better than coming to me! 😅 definitely will get her come solid so she is safe in an urgent situation! Question: what if you are too far away for your dog to hear you? Get closer? Probably a dumb question, but with a sporting lab.... smells take them far out really fast!
@@LizNewtonZHUCHI Hi! I'm trying to stick to it whenever I can remember to be honest, both inside the house and in the garden -- I can't really let my dog off lead much these days in public places. I'm hoping that over time it'll work. Let me know how it goes hehe ;) Good luck!
The funny thing about what you just showed us is that the owner needs discipline lol! People give up too easy with dogs and they are not stupid, they see it like children do. Great work 👏
@@karenlatham4053 i find it helps to be a stubborn wop ;) but honestly i found if u really make a effort and dont give up it get easier and easier with dogs. The biggest tip ive learned from this chn is doing it before you take your dog for a walk, ive tested the difference in his behavior and its astonishing how much different he is.
@@jc-kj2on My dog's four months old. We got him from a rescue shelter. He'd already been adopted and returned twice. I've had him for a month. He's very clever! He's so mouthy though lol. We're working on it. He's getting better and better everyday. I know he's going to be a great dog. I just have to be patient with him.
Just found you. Prefer your methods to other channels I tried. Hoping this works on my stubborn 7 month beagle who blows me off all the time. He thinks me coming to get him is a game. Would like to see how you use the long leash. Many thanks.
QUESTION - Is it possible to increase a dog's drive for treats? (We recently adopted a 3-yr-old GSD who will sniff and totally walk away from: peanut butter, popcorn, cheese wiz on the vet's finger, biscuit-dry dog treats, soft dog treats... She loves greasy chicken knuckles though... Do I need to train her with greasy chicken knuckles?)
I had (or thought) I had a perfect recall with my 35 lb dog. He came down with Pancreatic Enzyme Insufficiency (rare with Staffys) and thus, lost a lot of weight and energy until properly diagnosed and treated. In my hallway, he was struggling with lack of energy as he lay on the floor as the new medicine had not yet become effective. Whilst he was laying there, I was getting the groceries out of the boot of the car WHILST the garage door was open. BOOM! Titus took off after a huge male black bear and there was NO chance of calling Titus off the bear. Luckily, the bear jumped onto a tree and got away from Titus. The poor job I had done training Titus was grotesquely humbling. Sadly, Titus is no longer living. Nanaimo (the new puppy not a Staffy) will arrive soon and will start with our local version of Joel Beckman (no substitute for the real thing) the very next morning. We still have bears and I have learned to not leave any doors open to the outside.
I love when you find a dog that won't let you demonstrate a correction in a training tutorial b/c they are just too damn awesome lol- dash be killing it
You are amazing...I do not have a dog but I enjoy watching these videos..I just wanted to comment, like and share ohhhh and subscribe lol you have an amazing channel and I wanted to show some kind of support.
Thank you for telling me to go get my dog. I was confused on what to do when our year old golden retriever did not always respond to the come command. She now understands we will come get her. It’s actually funny. Sometimes she will look and look away but in the end she comes.
Joel, when I started training my dogs, I used the program that I got off TV. David Dykeman‘s “command performance.” It’s been pretty effective. Before he went completely off leash, he used a little tab. Kind of a 6 inch leash so he could grab them from that instead of by the collar. It also gave the dogs the feeling they were still on a leash and still under control. Your thoughts?
I almost do the same thing (over the last decades) with one (I think crucial) difference : I go and get them........almost : I leave 1meter (or even less) for the dog to come to me, and I change my harsh voice immediately to very friendly the second he decides to move the first centimeter in my direction. The difference is that this way, I can always reward them in the end, which makes the whole process a lot easier.
I really appreciate how you made the effort to demonstrate with a dog that didn't "come". With the "go get", what do I do if the dog races away from me when I go towards him? Should I go back to the long leash? I don't want to chase him and make it a game.
Yes, go back to the step in the process your dog is successful even if its the first step, and practice it until the dog does it almost every time a few days in a row, then move to the next step. For practicing no leash recall, don't do it in an area where your dog has much room to run or many distractions. The goal is to drill into the dogs mind that "not coming when called" equals "get returned to human anyways" so you don't need much space.
I'm a little late to the party on this video. But I have a question, How do you teach the initial touch command? I have a 8 month old lab/pit terrier mix. Thanks, love the rest of the video
New to the channel. Love the videos. I've been binge-watching.. What if you have an older dog? Mine is 6 years old and selectively comes when called. He doesn't run away from me. Can older dogs learn new behaviors?
Hi, great videos, one thing: I totally agree about getting your dog if he doesn't return, however when I'm out with my young Springer, although he comes back eventually most times, he's too far away to go get him and will evade me anyway. I practice in controlled spaces, he's very obedient and learns quickly.
I have the same problem. I can't go get my dog when she doesn't want to be caught. In a small space it's doable, but in a large field (enclosed) I could try all day and never catch her.
This method worked for my dog. I had him trained to come as a pup but because of the pandemic and because of others allowing him to blow them off, he became unreliable. He is now coming to me 100% of the time in the yard. He is very ADD when in the presence of other (unknown) dogs, so I will have to practice in outdoor locations.
Amazing stuff! I'm getting a Doberman puppy about 8 weeks next month when should I start training it for this type of method? I don't have a fence but I'm on 5 acres.
He almost addressed the issue when he released the dog immediately runs away. He mentioned he would address it later. Did he ever circle back to this?? Is this a bad sign that the dog when released runs out and away?
Prior to knowing this method I did it intuitively with my mom's pom when she was in the yard and they were to call her numerous times. I started telling her "inside!" only once and if she didnt come I'd go get her by the neck and "throw" her inside the house. She blew me off only twice. After that, it's been years. She can be hidden somewhere in the yard, if I say "inside." she comes rushing 😂. Thing is, this method works so well if done right, it's insane.
Please PLEASE show us this with a dog that actually runs away from you. I know you've been asked this by others as well. My dog thinks it's a game, and while you're addressing this in what you say, your demos with the two dogs in the video show 1. A dog that already comes (small dog) and 2. A dog that doesn't come but is slow and lazy and not running away from you.
I have a 3 year old lab who doesn’t come when called, she had perfect recall until she was 8 months old. When I go put a leash on her to bring her at times she will flop over to roll.
my dog is a 14 month old mini labradoodle. I started this method on a 20ft training leash and treats in my front yard with a lot of distractions with good success. When people walked by the house we had less success because she wanted to bark at the dogs and people walking by.
I have a quick question if you read this, I really value your opinion and methods. What would you do if the dog starts running away like it's a game when you try to go get them? I have a 6month old AkitaxRottie and we are working through some issues with going nuts (over enthusiastic) when trying to walk past people but especially other dogs. I watched one of your other videos about letting them burn energy off leash with other dogs and would like to take her to the dog park more often to play but I can't recall her when it's time to go. So it feels like I'm in a catch 22 situation, I try to walk her twice a day (40 mins in the morning at least, then whatever we get up to in the afternoon whether it's a long or shorter walk) but I would like to include some park time with other dogs twice a week. I just want to get her back when it's time to go.
Although I agree with coming and getting I have two dogs who have considered that part of training as a game. One actually trotted just far enough ahead of me to stay out of reach. I have been unable to find a large fenced area and the distraction of our dog park and the wooded area near our cabin has been too high. Also getting older and I am not as fast as I used to be. So an eCollar set at vibration is beginning to look like best solution. Is there ever a time or situation when you recommend one?
Joel you seriously need to make a shirt that says "I can do this all day"
I am a former preschool teacher and used to say this multiple times a day! Lol
I think some funny but not cheesy dog training / trainer shirts and hats would be great 😂 or some patches or gear for the dogs. Just saying I would support your merch because your training videos have really helped hone in some initial skills for my SDIT Skye.

Thanks for this! I definitely will be working on this with my girl! Her come is 50% there until a good smell is better than coming to me! 😅 definitely will get her come solid so she is safe in an urgent situation!
Question: what if you are too far away for your dog to hear you? Get closer? Probably a dumb question, but with a sporting lab.... smells take them far out really fast!
It’s so funny how the other two dogs walk with Beckmann when billy didn’t listen 👏👏😂😂
Very interesting. Thank you.
Great video!
I always did this with my children!!! No playing when I said I wanted them.
Just adopted a 1.7 year old dog who never comes when called. Thanks for this video, gonna try this out.
So cute how the other dogs respond when he called gilly.
probably the most promising advice I've found so far, I'll let you know how it worked! 🙌🙌
@Kata Szekeres How did you go? I have just come across the video. Starting on this myself as soon as long leash arrives in the post.
@@LizNewtonZHUCHI Hi! I'm trying to stick to it whenever I can remember to be honest, both inside the house and in the garden -- I can't really let my dog off lead much these days in public places. I'm hoping that over time it'll work. Let me know how it goes hehe ;) Good luck!
You trained my Mali Jessie in a class setting (Jess was Best in Class), and I still use your methods on my other two dogs. Joel is a GREAT trainer.
The funny thing about what you just showed us is that the owner needs discipline lol! People give up too easy with dogs and they are not stupid, they see it like children do.
Great work 👏
This is my worst problem I get bored / frustrated too easy.. 😔 I'm working on it..
@@karenlatham4053 i find it helps to be a stubborn wop ;) but honestly i found if u really make a effort and dont give up it get easier and easier with dogs. The biggest tip ive learned from this chn is doing it before you take your dog for a walk, ive tested the difference in his behavior and its astonishing how much different he is.
@@jc-kj2on My dog's four months old. We got him from a rescue shelter. He'd already been adopted and returned twice. I've had him for a month. He's very clever! He's so mouthy though lol. We're working on it. He's getting better and better everyday. I know he's going to be a great dog. I just have to be patient with him.
Just found you. Prefer your methods to other channels I tried. Hoping this works on my stubborn 7 month beagle who blows me off all the time. He thinks me coming to get him is a game. Would like to see how you use the long leash. Many thanks.
QUESTION - Is it possible to increase a dog's drive for treats? (We recently adopted a 3-yr-old GSD who will sniff and totally walk away from: peanut butter, popcorn, cheese wiz on the vet's finger, biscuit-dry dog treats, soft dog treats... She loves greasy chicken knuckles though... Do I need to train her with greasy chicken knuckles?)
Train before mealtime so they're actually hungry for something
I had (or thought) I had a perfect recall with my 35 lb dog. He came down with Pancreatic Enzyme Insufficiency (rare with Staffys) and thus, lost a lot of weight and energy until properly diagnosed and treated. In my hallway, he was struggling with lack of energy as he lay on the floor as the new medicine had not yet become effective. Whilst he was laying there, I was getting the groceries out of the boot of the car WHILST the garage door was open. BOOM! Titus took off after a huge male black bear and there was NO chance of calling Titus off the bear. Luckily, the bear jumped onto a tree and got away from Titus. The poor job I had done training Titus was grotesquely humbling. Sadly, Titus is no longer living. Nanaimo (the new puppy not a Staffy) will arrive soon and will start with our local version of Joel Beckman (no substitute for the real thing) the very next morning. We still have bears and I have learned to not leave any doors open to the outside.
I would 100% buy a shirt that says I can do this all day on it. Throw the beck man logo on there somewhere too
They’re coming
I love when you find a dog that won't let you demonstrate a correction in a training tutorial b/c they are just too damn awesome lol- dash be killing it
You are amazing...I do not have a dog but I enjoy watching these videos..I just wanted to comment, like and share ohhhh and subscribe lol you have an amazing channel and I wanted to show some kind of support.
You’re the man
I like that the little guy is just too good of a boy in the video to show the ´go get´ method with! xD
This is great. My Kelpie is going to find the off leash come with dogs very difficult as his thing is working other dogs.
Thank you for telling me to go get my dog. I was confused on what to do when our year old golden retriever did not always respond to the come command. She now understands we will come get her. It’s actually funny. Sometimes she will look and look away but in the end she comes.
Guilly is like my dog.....I will start being more firm and not such a push over for his handsome looks- Thank you!!!
Joel, when I started training my dogs, I used the program that I got off TV. David Dykeman‘s “command performance.” It’s been pretty effective.
Before he went completely off leash, he used a little tab. Kind of a 6 inch leash so he could grab them from that instead of by the collar. It also gave the dogs the feeling they were still on a leash and still under control. Your thoughts?
Dog is adorable
Ive been doing this for my maltese mix and didnt even know it was a "method" used in dog training! No wonder it works so well lol
I love the concept and have been doing the hand touch signal... what reward do you use? My puppy is not terribly food motivated.
I almost do the same thing (over the last decades) with one (I think crucial) difference : I go and get them........almost : I leave 1meter (or even less) for the dog to come to me, and I change my harsh voice immediately to very friendly the second he decides to move the first centimeter in my direction.
The difference is that this way, I can always reward them in the end, which makes the whole process a lot easier.
I really appreciate how you made the effort to demonstrate with a dog that didn't "come".
With the "go get", what do I do if the dog races away from me when I go towards him? Should I go back to the long leash?
I don't want to chase him and make it a game.
Yes, go back to the step in the process your dog is successful even if its the first step, and practice it until the dog does it almost every time a few days in a row, then move to the next step. For practicing no leash recall, don't do it in an area where your dog has much room to run or many distractions. The goal is to drill into the dogs mind that "not coming when called" equals "get returned to human anyways" so you don't need much space.
I'm a little late to the party on this video. But I have a question, How do you teach the initial touch command? I have a 8 month old lab/pit terrier mix. Thanks, love the rest of the video
Love this! My puppy “sometimes” will come and only zoom past me. This definitely will help!
Gilly behaves so much like my golden. Gonna repeat this process over and over.
Admire yr tenacity
All the way from Asia
gilly is an icon
New to the channel. Love the videos. I've been binge-watching.. What if you have an older dog? Mine is 6 years old and selectively comes when called. He doesn't run away from me. Can older dogs learn new behaviors?
Hi, great videos, one thing: I totally agree about getting your dog if he doesn't return, however when I'm out with my young Springer, although he comes back eventually most times, he's too far away to go get him and will evade me anyway. I practice in controlled spaces, he's very obedient and learns quickly.
I have the same problem. I can't go get my dog when she doesn't want to be caught. In a small space it's doable, but in a large field (enclosed) I could try all day and never catch her.
This method worked for my dog. I had him trained to come as a pup but because of the pandemic and because of others allowing him to blow them off, he became unreliable. He is now coming to me 100% of the time in the yard. He is very ADD when in the presence of other (unknown) dogs, so I will have to practice in outdoor locations.
Amazing stuff! I'm getting a Doberman puppy about 8 weeks next month when should I start training it for this type of method? I don't have a fence but I'm on 5 acres.
He almost addressed the issue when he released the dog immediately runs away. He mentioned he would address it later. Did he ever circle back to this?? Is this a bad sign that the dog when released runs out and away?
Prior to knowing this method I did it intuitively with my mom's pom when she was in the yard and they were to call her numerous times. I started telling her "inside!" only once and if she didnt come I'd go get her by the neck and "throw" her inside the house. She blew me off only twice. After that, it's been years. She can be hidden somewhere in the yard, if I say "inside." she comes rushing 😂. Thing is, this method works so well if done right, it's insane.
Please PLEASE show us this with a dog that actually runs away from you. I know you've been asked this by others as well. My dog thinks it's a game, and while you're addressing this in what you say, your demos with the two dogs in the video show 1. A dog that already comes (small dog) and 2. A dog that doesn't come but is slow and lazy and not running away from you.
Stay on the long leash.
I have a 3 year old lab who doesn’t come when called, she had perfect recall until she was 8 months old. When I go put a leash on her to bring her at times she will flop over to roll.
Loved the Star Trek reference!
my dog is a 14 month old mini labradoodle. I started this method on a 20ft training leash and treats in my front yard with a lot of distractions with good success. When people walked by the house we had less success because she wanted to bark at the dogs and people walking by.
“This can save your dogs life” amen.
Love your videos man!
I have a quick question if you read this, I really value your opinion and methods.
What would you do if the dog starts running away like it's a game when you try to go get them? I have a 6month old AkitaxRottie and we are working through some issues with going nuts (over enthusiastic) when trying to walk past people but especially other dogs. I watched one of your other videos about letting them burn energy off leash with other dogs and would like to take her to the dog park more often to play but I can't recall her when it's time to go. So it feels like I'm in a catch 22 situation, I try to walk her twice a day (40 mins in the morning at least, then whatever we get up to in the afternoon whether it's a long or shorter walk) but I would like to include some park time with other dogs twice a week. I just want to get her back when it's time to go.
Thank you I'm working with a 5 mo old pry
what i find hillarious is if cesar millan does this same methid hes called a dog abuser xD fr tho keep up the good work!
Although I agree with coming and getting I have two dogs who have considered that part of training as a game.
One actually trotted just far enough ahead of me to stay out of reach. I have been unable to find a large fenced area and the distraction of our dog park and the wooded area near our cabin has been too high. Also getting older and I am not as fast as I used to be.
So an eCollar set at vibration is beginning to look like best solution. Is there ever a time or situation when you recommend one?
"Resistance is futile" 😂
