Sorry to bother you, but it looks like one of your dogs is a german shepherd. I have a 2yr old male GSD, and was wondering if you have any advice specific to running with that breed. Like is it ok to run him on flat pavement? I dont do that to keep his hips healthy, but wasnt sure if you do or not.
Super video. I especially like the way you trained left and right. I'm teaching my dog to do this and all the videos I have come across basically have the trainer yell the command while turning left and right with the dog. Your method seems better and to more easily imprint the commands in the dog's mind, so I'm going to try it. Thank you!
@@silvijab7868 For the dogs I have a series of exercises such as backing up, spins, figure 8s, side stepping, sit, down, stands. Along with some others. For myself, I follow soccer and football warmups.
Great video that contributes to the knowledge of trail hiking /running with dogs. My only thing is that the personality and breed of the dog also informs their trail behavior. A very front foot dog (lead dog) paired with a more passive dog (side runner) becomes a different kind of challenge to train. The bond between my two litter mates (3 year olds) is so strong, that separating them to train them individually has been nearly impossible. Neither can concentrate for the whole hour while away from the other. It’s a curious thing i wonder if others have encountered. I have just learned to work them together with common field calls and hand signs. They know who is being spoken to from a distance or close up, yet they don’t know unique instructions just to the individual dog. Have not soled that yet.
@@jenniferhenschel7630 my apologies I wasn’t notified of your comment so I am seeing this very late. That can sometimes be a patterned behaviour on what you’ve possibly unconsciously had happen on walks. Other times genetics can play a part depending on breed. Along with other factors of course. I allow my dogs to potty prior to a run and then when it’s time to go we go.
lovely

Recommend brands that fit heelers? We’re struggling finding any that fit. 😢
@@emilyandthedogs Try Nahak, it’s the brand harness they are wearing in the video. They come in a large range of sizes and also do custom sizing.
@@EngagedK9 will do. Thanks!! We’ve gone through neewa and nonstop thus far. Neewa x back fits my male okay. But not as well as I’d like.
What kind of warmup do you use for self and dogs want king of cool downs

Very helpful! My puppy is almost a year old, and I’d like to start running with her. Any thoughts for dogs that like to stop and sniff a lot?
