3:34 Joel: We don't get treats for everything. There's no treats . There's no situation in life where you get reinforced for every small behavior!
3:40 Hold back in slow motion

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Damn, play by play
😂
You forgot 5:32, where Joel's body moves involuntarily
@@pimplyface64😂 It's that Elivis twitch coming back
OMG THIS is my whole program, with almost every client. Calm down people, stop talking at your dog. start showing your dog what you want - and don’t want - with your body language. Today’s dogs are an out of control mess because we don’t set limits with our puppies anymore. No impulse control in a young dog lands them in the shelter after their owners can’t take their behavior anymore… or it escalates to using their mouth to get their way.
I’ve worked at a shelter where saying no to a dog was a no no. Of course telling humans no is perfectly fine. Some of those dogs were there 6 months to a year or more. Ridiculous
@@chrisjames2334 That must have been very frustrating!
@@chrisjames2334 such B.S. can't tell them no but they can disappear them when they don't get adopted no problem...
@@nujabes1fan every day I wanted to walk, but then I look into those dogs eyes, and I’m stuck. Very frustrating
I found it so hard to stop talking! Humans talk dogs observe, it seems to me. Learning to use physical cues and NOT talk was so hard for me. I remember one of Joel's early videos where he said "watch me, not the dog".
I always appreciate it when a professional trainer reinforces that allowing your super exuberant dog to run up on another dog is not okay. People think their dog is just being friendly, but if the dog they’re approaching doesn’t appreciate that kind of hyper energy, it will result in a correction. I’ve seen it happen many times. To me, that’s an indication that hyper exuberant behavior doesn’t equal “just friendly” to many dogs. It equals annoying and deserving of correction. Great video, Joel!
I mean, if someone comes up hyper exuberant to you, you're not necessarily going to see it as "just being friendly", either, right?
@@CaduceusErinexactly!
Yes my dog really hates hyper dogs. It's very frustrating when people allow their crazy dogs to charge up to my dog. Imagine if a person approached you the same way - I would be incredibly annoyed! My dog gets incredibly defensive around hyper dogs and I've gotten to a point where I've stopped trying to prevent him from reacting at hyper dogs that way. If the owners aren't going to moderate their dog, then the other dogs have no other choice but to enforce their own boundaries.
The moment he said “we don’t get treats for everything - that’s not life.” Is when I fell in love 😍
This is my Labrador! So strong and determined and full of energy. It’s been a hard 2.5 years. He’s also leash reactive to other dogs now. I wish I’d been stricter with him from the start. Treat training for leash reactivity is such a joke and has been a waste of time. I walk him in a head halter now and get all sorts of comments like “why is he wearing a muzzle?” “He just wants to play!”. Because this boy will pull you down and he plays rough so he’s gonna roll your dog on its back😂. He’s just that strong!! My 105 lb Rottie mix was a million times easier than this dog.
Same with mine! I hated those remarks about the head halter, "oh does your lab BITE?" No but he'll knock you down with exuberance without this thing! We did spend half the walk with him rubbing his face on the ground, ugh... Mine is 3.5 and actually much better in last 6 months - thankfully now walks pretty well with martingale and Joel's leash pop method, likely age as well. This channel was so helpful!
For anyone reading this: I know that dog training can be difficult sometimes, but you're doing great. Keep up the good work, and your dog (and your own sanity) will thank you for it! ❤️💕
Thankyou for that. I veer between this strict kind of dealing with my dog and using treats. Hard not to get down sometimes.
@@BetruetoGod I get it. Dogs can be really challenging. But you've got this! Hang in there! ❤️💕
it saves lives
I think one key appeal of this channel is Joel's willingness to acknowledge that annoying behaviors are annoying. He's never angry or cruel, but he's also not trying to be a zen master calmly philosophizing about a dog's emotional imbalances. The annoying behavior occurs, the annoying behavior is dealt with by the person who was annoyed, and the annoyed person is not required to be super upbeat and chipper about it!
I agree whole heartedly with you on not wanting a dog in my face when I sit down to eat, watch tv or converse with a host or other guests. I didn’t allow it with my dogs, and I loved them dearly. When people came over they couldn’t believe how well mannered they were.
I can't and won't stand for dogs sitting and staring at me when I'm eating or doing things that they don't need to be involved with. It's ill-mannered and puts them in a position to be able to do other bad things like grabbing food or jumping on you. These days people don't seem to respect good manners, either in their dogs or children .
@@infin8eeOr selves.
@@squoctopus you have a point !
Joel I have an idea 💡 "Where are they now" videos, sort of like Hellywierd celebrities that disappeared from the screen, but highlight the most difficult dogs you've worked with. Maybe videos from when they first came to your facility and >one year later after (with owners that followed through with your prescribed programs).
You could even contact the owners and ask them to video their dogs handling whatever stimulus they've overcome.
I hate with Labs, how people think that, because they're normally so happy-go-lucky, that that is what they want. The thing is a dog should not just be happy-go-lucky all the time - it needs to be calm and relaxed to. It also needs to listen to the pack leader, which is the owner. Life is not all about happy-go-lucky all the time.
I agree completely. I've got 2 labs and while yes, they are amazing family dogs, they still require ongoing training just like any other dog. My labs and I are still working through triggers that set them off.
My male cane Corso has been attacked by several golden labs or retrievers at four separate times. Twice by the same male lab. The first time my dog backed down. The second time he didn’t and they fought.
"The butt touch method is to take power away" sent me for some reason 🤣
When did discipline become a dirty word or it become "cruel" to expect some respect from our dogs? Nobody gets to do what they want 100% of the time and our dogs don't either. The sooner that lesson is learnt the easier everything else becomes. Great video again!
Gonna sound a bit sexist here but it happened after the dog training world became dominated by women. Likewise they now dominate education with similar loss of discipline and over-empowering of students to their detriment. Women have some fantastic qualities and greater empathy is one of them. Nobody I would turn to quicker when I receive upsetting news than the women in my life. But empathy isn’t the answer to everything and is sometimes counterproductive.
@@RaveyDaveyI watched a male trainer who was doing only positive reinforcement training and kind of bashing trainers like Joel.
Hope your knee is better, Joel! That wasn’t crude; it was a master class! Bravo.
My dog needs this!!! I'm having knee surgery in a few weeks bc if my insanely impulsive German short-haired pointer mix rescue puppy. He ran full speed directly into the side of my leg when I was distracted, dislocated my kneecap and damaged the cartilage, broke a piece of my cartilage clear off in my knee. He's about 7 months old and we are training ourselves to train him and get control! He's a jumper, he's a very high energy, never stop puppy. This is new to us, as previous dogs were very laid back.
The one Moment where he was about to go to Prinz and Joel got ready to correct but immediately stops when the Dog gets it is why i Like this Trainer. Just very on Point . Also it was very funny when he didn't even Care for the butt touch in the beginning . Good stuff
I’ve been researching this and I’ve now seen too many opinions and frankly too much total BS that will make the dog worse. Finally, I have seen someone who understands this behavior and what it takes to correct. Thank you for sharing this excellent video.
This is exactly why this channel is the most viewed dog training channel on the internet!
I didn't even have a clue how much bs was in dog training circles until after I found BD Training. I recognized that Joel has a very keen understanding of how dogs think and how to effectively train them and correct unwanted behavior and have been greatly educated by him. Then I began to see that there's a unified "force" of "force free" folks that absolutely hate balanced training that uses restraint, corrections and methods that subdue dogs under the control of their owners. It's one of the worst examples of idiocy I've seen in this world.
I stopped training using any form of treats after I got a lab. They are overly food motivated and will ignore everything else. It also what caused me to switch my training into this style of training, due to nothing else working well, and just haphazardly stumbled into this after 2 months, till I located this channel, that at that time ended up just being confirmation what I was doing would help, and helped me fine tune the method.
This was my youngest dog when I adopted her at one year old. I couldn't even sit on the floor without her going absolutely crazy with excitement. And treats only work for tricks with her. Great example of a dog with no self control and the method to correct that! ❤❤
Great video. One of your best. I wish I could send it to my neighbor. Their dog goes ballistic when it sees me in my own backyard. It runs up to the fence and barks at me viciously. It's not just that the dog is barking, which is annoying on its own; its bark is extremely bad-natured and ferocious, as if it wants to attack me. I'll just be sitting in my backyard reading a book or watching a video on my phone, and when they let their dog out, it immediately runs to the fence and goes crazy. I can't even relax in my own backyard. Or, God forbid, if I make any sort of noise like moving a chair, their dog will come sprinting out (they sometimes leave the back door open) and go nuts. This has been going on for years, and my neighbors don't know what to do about it. They've tried using treats to call the dog back (doesn't work). When they go to the fence to try to get the dog to go back inside, it dances around them, avoids them, and continues barking at me. They've tried an e-collar (doesn't work), and they've even tried putting a black mesh tarp on the fence so that the dog can't see through it (doesn't work). What frustrates me the most, though, is that when they try to get their dog to stop barking and come back inside, instead of being forceful and demanding, they use a very soft voice, saying, "Good girl, Cheyenne (their dog's name), that's enough, come back," and the dog literally does not respond to or respect them at all. Like, why are you being so nice? Isn't your dog obnoxious and out of control? What are you scared of? It's not even a big dog, it's just an Australian shepherd! It's like they're scared to give a correction to their dog, and now I and all my other neighbors have to deal with the consequences. So frustrating! I've talked to my other neighbors, and they are also upset with their dog. What do I do?
I think give them the video and point out the part where Joel says that teaching the dog how to think and hold itself back is a different level from sit/stay/etc.
Also, point out that Joel doesn't raise his voice to the dog when the dog makes a mistake (because they might think they have to yell and they don't want to do that). However he doesn't say "good boy" until the dog is behaving.
If the neighbors don't know what to do then you have a chance to show them the video or send it. If they are frustrated with their dog barking and charging and all, they might be interested.
I'm sure you're sick of advice - but I can't help it!!
Have you tried inviting your neighbours over for a drink? A cup of coffee? In the backyard with table and chairs?
They leave their dog in their yard and he's outside the circle of trust.
He also sees it's not worth warning his owners about you since you are apparently now part of his extended pack.
Eventually you might invite him into you garden for a session of ball fetching without his owners? If this freaks him out to much some hot dogs usually break the ice.
They have to stop the rehearsals. They go out on a long line with the dog. Oh, there's so and so. How's it going? Not going to be easy since it's been going on for years but ENUFF already, right!?! Have about 5 yappers in a yard 3 yards away and have trained my dogs to ignore them and not to give them what they want, even when I'm not out with them. There's a new sheriff in town and these are the rules. He'll probably be thrilled honestly. Finally, some direction. I love watching Steve Young with horses. Even experienced horse people are having trouble with their horses. Once Steve is done, the horses are so relieved. Oh thank God! Finally, someone that speaks horse language. Hope that helps.
I like the way Joel demonstrates that it's okay to correct a dog for a totally annoying overreaction even if the dog isn't doing anything dangerous or "mean." He's not asking for anything unreasonable. He's not asking the dog to remain calm while he waves a steak in front of its face, he's asking the dog to remain calm at the sight of a human being sitting down on a chair. It's not that exciting! Who wants a dog that thinks every little thing is an invitation to throw a party?
This guys attitude about dog behavior has changed the game for me and my "creeping into trouble" GSD
That's one of the most handsome labs I've ever seen. Thank you for this video, it's a great demonstration of how to reel in a big, impulsive boy, like my bf's giant schnauzer...who needs help finding his brain.
Love your videos, you demystify dog training. People don't realize Cesar Milan's show are over produced and overly edited. As a dog walker and ex trainer it is hard to teach people dogs are tough and potentially dangerous. People get stuck in that idea that dogs are angels that can do no wrong, but we must realize we affect the way they behave.
I like the love and affection you don't care for in the beginning of the video. I also have them keep it less intense and able to stopped when I need them to. Some dogs are more stubborn than others, of course.
YES!!! YES! YES! This was beautiful, maybe crude to some, it was one of the most valuable demonstrations ive seen Joel do, what a great wake up call for this big beautiful boy! see this everywhere, ive been studying all things dog for my entire life 65+years and dogs in the world today are a mess..i attribute it much to "treat training" that easily provides the LOOK of a happy joyous dog .. that in reality are totally stressed out...yep thats not always the case, it sure is TRENDING though. I really appreciate this video, i see people just struggling with their dogs along with dogs attacking people...
Discipline is never joyous in the moment, but in the end.... Proverbs 22:6
Thanks so much, this is sure to help some that are struggling! ❤
shout out old testament 🐤
Joel is the best.
Hands down.
Simple.
No argument.
You da man
This is SUCH a needed video. More of this Joel- love the details of distance and reason for less treats. How to manage the dog ignoring leash holder without treats. Thank you
WOW, this is totally like my dog Apollo. He has no chill, he wants what he wants and could care less - and he is super treat driven. If that dog was a great big doberman, it would be my dog. He gets into people's business all the time, crowds me all the time, life is a game to him. This video was exactly what I needed to see today. Still working on being the boss with this guy like you said - this video will help with the how-to of that, so thank you Joel.
I have a cream golden that is similar to this dog, but my dog isn't very treat motivated at all. It's difficult to train a dog with treats when they 1. Know they will get treats for sure later on, can keep doing what they are doing now, and still get the treats later. And 2. when they just seemingly are not interested that much in treats to begin with. I've tried getting my dog to eat his food when I put it out, but he just grazes on his food all day and won't eat a lot at once even if he is hungry. It's nice because he doesn't resource guard, bit at the same time it makes using treats very difficult. Without this kind of training, my dog would be worse than this one. I've been implementing some of your techniques for 1.5 months and I've seen a world of difference. Thank you for these videos I wouldn't be able to get rid of these potentially dangerous behaviors without these techniques.
Excellent explanation Joel of NOT giving verbal cues and waiting for mistakes to happen while balancing thresh holds. That Is NEXTR level. But it works!
Is it possible that this very exuberant, Happy go lucky And obviously smart dog was turned into a treat monster by using positive only reinforcements at the point where he expects it constantly like he does in his video?
with my lab that is exactly what happens if you use treats much. I find they are useful for teaching new things but otherwise all he can think is TREEEEEEETS!
@@tammyschilling5362 yeah I'm pretty sure the dog in the video is soooo happy that "good boy" will go a long ways
He's a great dog isn't he! That drive should make him fun for training. Look up "dock diving" labs love it, the drama, the abandon, the goal, the big splash. They act like boofy pubescent little boys.
It really does seem like treat training only works for a small minority of medium-energy, medium-food-motivation dogs that are already relatively calm and are willing to work for food without obsessing over it. So...not most dogs, lol.
I love these videos! Really helps to break the dog/human language barrier. So grateful for these vids my xl bully is pretty well behaved just working on this exact problem, will keep on trying🥇💗
This is why i love your videos. Its not just obedience training, its actually adjusting the dogs mindset and behaviors on a deeper level than just performing for a treat. Game changer.
Always seems like you upload the anwser to my latest headache. Appreciate all the knowlesge ypu so freely share
Hey Joel. Thank you. Awesome stuff. Totally agreed re. violation of personal space - even if it’s a “happy” exuberant dog. I have decided that my next dog won’t be an excitable one. It’s hard work. Good on these owners for getting your help & advice.
She leans/lunges super hard at cats, people and animals!❤😂
This is so my dog. Lab, 120lb, male, unneutered, super strong, and "hard" (in the sense that it takes very strong corrections for him even to notice). We've done a lot of door impulse control, but it's been hard to get him thinking and not reacting to things in the world (like the horses that walk by and make him lose his mind - he seems to think they are dangerous space aliens who want to kill us all). Gentle leader is required to walk him, but even that doesn't last long because it drives him so crazy that after a few minutes he starts nose diving to get it off. Been considered a prong collar because I've read they are less bothersome to some dogs than having a nose strap.
"Dangerous space aliens that want to kill us" 😂😂😂
Sit, recakl, down, heel etc are such easy tricks to teach, they almost come without doing anything if communication and bringing up the dog is done right. However most people and trainer as well focus on these simple, fun tricks, push the dogs excitement into stupidity and that's part of why we keep getting more and more out of control dogs. The firdt thing I teach my dog or say I lay focus on is calmness. No matter what, excitement gets them nowhere. You want something? Well, freak out but you won't get it until you're mentally calm. And when I teach them commands, say sit for example, I do it calmly without excitement and the dog gets trähe treat only when it is calm, not when it has wide eyes and a propeller tail. Demanding behavior gets them nothing either. Doing tricks quickly and motivated has nothing to do with being calm vs excited. A calm dog can focus and will behave better and will get into less trouble. People also misunderstand that a dog wagging its tail out of excitement has nothinh to do with happiness. It's just hyper.
Thanks for the detailed training on these cases. I have been doing most of this, but your butt touch may be the technique that is missing in my bag of tricks. Thank you.
Thanks for the video. I see so many of these dogs that jump on people. Why on earth would people think it is OK for their dog to jump on me? What if they claw me; what if they knock me over? Never good idea to have a dog with no impulse control. Great video.
It's hard work but once done, happy days for all. Thanks for the video Joel.
O there's hope ! Mabe ? As it gets older with me if it doesn't disable me.or fail into a loss of control or dog fight fear.
She yanked the leash out of my hand, head butted me and running off holding the leash in her mouth!!!❤
Hi @Beckman's_Dog_Training, I've been watching a lot of your videos lately, as I'm hoping to adopt a dog within a few years, and I want i be as good and effective pet parent as I can be (I prefer the term "pet parent" over "owner" for personal reasons, but I digress). I have to admit, at first I was very skeptical of your videos. I'd been watching several other dog training channels, and compared to them your approach seemed a lot more heavy handed and, frankly, a little intimidating at first. After watching several of your videos, however, I've come to realize how much you love dogs, and that all of your methods can effectively be boiled down to two basic principles.
1. Good behavior needs to be rewarded whenever possible (within reason). This strengthens the bond with your dog and is the best way to teach in most situations
2. Bad behavior must be corrected, if for no other reason than to help the dog figure out what the correct behavior is supposed to be. HOWEVER, for a correction to be effective, it MUST meet the following criteria:
a). The correction should only be enough to stop or prevent the behavior, and not more. This prevents the relationship with your dog from eroding more than necessary.
b) The correction must NEVER inflict pain or fear. Pain and fear erode trust and make the dog shut down, and can only get short term results at the expense of long term harm. Punishment is good. Abuse is not.
I know that you frequently get in arguments with "force free" trainers and their "positive only" techniques. You've suggested that they refuse to teach forceful correction techniques as a marketing scheme, but I propose a different theory; they don't teach forceful correction techniques because they're afraid to, because they know that many people will not understand how to properly use them. The line between assertive/dominant and aggressive/violent can be easily crossed, especially by those who believe that harsher corrections are more effective (they aren't) and in some cases correcting overly harshly can be more damaging than not correcting at all. Think about it, if you had to choose between a dog that was unruly, did not follow commands, and lacked any self control because no one ever told it "no", and a dog that spends in entire life curled up in a quivering ball, afraid to do anything at all because its entire life it was punished inexcusably harshly for doing the "wrong" thing, which would you rather see? Which sight would upset you more? It's entirely possible that at least some of these force free trainers are picking what they see as the lesser of two evils and hoping for the best. The road to hell is paved with good intent.
THIS!!! We do need this and will be watching it on repeat until I know it all and can apply it to my guy. Thank you!
Too many people look at being firm as abuse. This looked like good training to me!
if you don't see physically hurting your dog as an abuse i have bad news for you (he yoinks a leash even when the dog is wearing only thin collar or a slip which is basically short term strangling)
THAT is a very handsome lab.
You and I have a very similar attitude. Looks like it pays off well!
That's my husky! Lol
Treats don't work with her. I haven't kneed her as she tries to fly out the door. We don't have much space at the entrance, so pulling the leash is hard to do. I watch so many of your videos and this one really clicked with me.
Maybe with Huskies pulling is inbred…..pulling sleds!
@@neilurquhart8622 It's not. You can teach a husky to not pull, same as any other dog.
The more you pull, the more they pull. Someone called it “opposition reflex.” Hence the goal of a loose leash. (Joel has helpful threshold videos, too.) Huskies are fun. 😉
Put the leash away in different places so it’s not always the same cue to get excited. Put the dog in a down-stay and refuse to put the leash on until he’s calm. Require calm before doing each step.
I'd love to learn what to do when I get side eyed by other dog owners when I have to correct my pups. I know that I cant allow certain behaviors, and they must be corrected , especially when those other dogs owners have unruly dogs themselves.
SO interesting to see your methods sped up in this episode to keep pace with his quickly-fleeting attention. Impressive and very helpful!! He seems like one of the most challenging training cases on this channel, in the sense of him taking a long time for corrections to have any effect on him.
Implementing a few of your simple techniques with 6m/o smart lab/collie puppy. He's a smart little guy but he's always looking to me for guidance now with these methods. He's been EXTREMELY boisterous since being a pup with his biting, jumping, rough play with me and other dogs but taken a massive turn in the last month or two and he's SO much nicer to be around! We always go through doors and gates on my command, sit and stay for his dinner and constant work on his recall. We've realised it can't always be 'happy-clappy' biscuit time when trying to divert him from doing something wrong - but we tell him and reward him when he is doing what we want him to. He's in the office with me all week so he has to realise he can't always play with other dogs or jump up at people to be greated. He's catching onto the idea that he has to look at me for guidance. Positive-only training drives me round the bend but at a young age, it's a blend of both.
This is my 14 month old female black lab to a t! When it's just me and her, she's pretty good most of the time. But when the UPS guy comes or a friend or family member comes by, she loses her mind! There is NO controlling her. She literally does hear or acknowledge me. I stopped treat training her about 4 months ago. She still "expects" treats.
We have a 3.5 year old black lab - impulse control felt impossible. You are in the hardest phase! This channel has so many good videos and tips for impulse control from leash pops, doorway method, butt touch, jaw grab seen here around 4:00 - all super helpful with our boy 😊
This video is amazing! I have tried some of Joel’s training methods with good success, but my dog wasn’t anywhere this out of his mind.
I have an impulsive high energy dog. I need to learn the butt flip!
Lmao! Bro got whiplash 😂😂😂😂
And still went wild i the end without the leash.
Thank you for your guidance!!!
I love your videos these are so helpful thank you
If you can imagine Cujo meets a hard pulling polar bear!❤
Labs are amazing familydogs. Most are gentle, fast in learning new things (if you got time to train).But….. because this is a happy breed, lovable and always got a happy butt wiggling, they sometimes come away with naughty behavior. I got a lab who I babysit. It is a big cuddlebuddy. But stubborn and she does what she want. Always walking on a long leash and always wanted her way. Worst recall.
So she is always walking with me on a short leash. Pay attention. And a correction when needed. She knows when. I walk her. She has to behave.
Wishing I could give this 100 👍👍👍👍👍!!
Its a ruff life for a pup❤
My dog acts like a MMA fighter cruising down the street!😂❤
Ho boy I am so sore and basically injured yet ,I continue to use or try to practice this good information on tamping down the leash walk reactivity. I am also impatient, have great hope neutered will help for him and see same problems with other owners helps for me.
Joel this dog is a textbook example of a dog that would benefit from a prong and/or e-collar
OH MY GOD! I deal with this ALL the time!! I am constantly explaining to owners that EVERY living being needs rules, Manners, respect, consequences for undesirable behavior. Cookies don't fix these problems. Uncontrolled excitement equals Uncontrollable dog. I've been training dogs since 1990. My adopted parents were 50+ years in domestic & exotic animal training with the studios, behavior modification. We can Not understand why owners think this behavior is OK, this behavior is cute, until it isn't (excitement knocks down an elderly person, or injures a child).
I love asking my clients- would you give a cookie to your child for everything you ask them to do? What happens when they no longer want to do what you require them to do? How would you respond if your child acted like your dog? You'd be accepting of them jumping all over everything in your home? Or accepting of them Not listen to you, run after whatever they want to get to, shout at other children they see?? Children need to learn direction and Rules, so do dogs.
Great videos! Thank you
This was another outstanding vid! Is this a Lab/Pit? Looks more muscular than a usual Lab. Did he run in the pasture first? And why did you stop with the Gentle Leader and use just the harness? That seems more difficult. Not criticizing; just wondering. Joel is the best!!! ❤🙏🏽🐾
My Doberman is almost 6 months old. I’m trying to phase out treats with him, because he chooses when he wants to listen.
My dog is the Tasmanian devil on four legs!😂❤
thank you sir
My brother's dog is like this, he's good natured but all over people. No one really likes it and my brother just allows it to happen. I never tolerate it, lol.
Ooooohhh training the state of mind; I like that. My Border Collie does pretty well on the leash. Got him to stop chasing cars, bikes, people, bunnies, birds, and children. But god help me when he sees another dog. If the other dog is chill, then hes chill. But if the other dog is yapping or gives him a dirty look, there goes the growling and lunging. He gives them that border collie stare, so hes 100% the instigator. Just having trouble snapping him out of it. I bought a choke collar, but im afraid to use it lol
This is brilliant I seem to have this problem myself .😊
Schools and parents need the same method with kids…positive reinforcement only doesn’t work. You need to punish the bad behavior with the positive reinforcement.
Labs are a wonderful breed. But untrained can be your worst nightmare. Great job Mr. Wonderdog.
I feel sad when i see you correcting them, but the results are wild.
Yeah, nice methods. I've been doing mostly similar stuff with my dog, but I will implement a few tips. Thanks for the video (and other videos :) )
Labradors to me are like dobermanns to you. 😊 I find them extremly easy to connect and train with
Pity your spelling doesn’t come so easy!!🤪
I got tired watching you train this dog. He still has a lot of puppy and it’s apparent he hadn’t been given any boundaries. Whew! I’m tired! Honestly I would have put a Herm Springer on him. Think he would have got the point a lot more quickly. But that’s just me.
There is a better way to train a dog then smashing a knee in the dog and pulling him around on a gentle leader.
Teaching a dog to be thoughtful takes time but is possible
Quick results leads to communication gaps.
You can't expect a dog to be calm if you didn't spend time actively training them to do nothing it is the first step to calming them down.
Then teaching them to respect your personal space.
Walking in to them reinforcing them when stepping away from you using their daily food allowens.
Before they get to you mark the distance you want between you and them so if you want them 5 feet away walk in to them 5 feet and reinforce.
Sit in a chair or on the couch throw food away from you before they get to you throw it away again. Playing this game 30sec at a time.
Crating him in the same room you are in so he has a safe place to be in and learn to just chill around people.
Giving licking mats to help self soothe.
Teaching a solid place.
And so many more methods that I can explain to get the results without having to give the dog unnecessary stress or corrections.
I know this works my 5 year old border collie use to jump up on me grab my clothes and rip it tripping me on multiple occasions
Giving me nose bleeds with her jumping and hitting my face humping me and dragging me around.
I used corrections it will stop for a month or 2 but will always resurface somewhere.
Until I started teaching what I do want.
Side note corrections can be added in once behaviors have been tought.
But not kneeing a dog in the chest.
You can start to expect more from them once the behavior have been trained to a point where reinforcement is a lottery sometimes they get but sometimes they don't.
Implementing corrections is difficult when the rest of the family members the dog lives with don't contribute or are consistent with them. My dog is over 2 and still displays such behaviors as this lab. In addition, due to his age his personality has change and he has become a dog I don't always enjoy taking out for walks or to the park. I still keep his training day in day out, he gets it but then my dad may take him out the next day and allow him to pull on the leash, meet every dog he sees, so it's back to square one.
My dog is exactly like this and it's killing me. I don't know how I get to good without the framework to do so. I don't have people and other dogs to train with. Just sporadic moments in which he reacts outside.. it feels impossible.
Good grooves Joel!! 😅👍
This dog would be a good detection/sniffer dog :)
My Presa pup watches your videos with me 😅
In our house the leash means going to ride in the car so they freak out with excitement when they even see the leash to the point of insanity. How do I get them to respect the leash then?
The bold, the beautiful and the chaotic. Don’t forget the beautiful lol (Prince& Joel)

This has been a very informative video for me. I appreciate your teaching. My dog is almost 8 months old. She's very impulsive. She's just like that dog only smaller but she's strong as a horse. I have been trying to do the same things that you've been doing but I didn't know that was a thing. I felt like I was being kind of mean to her. But now I will do it full force just like you showed, it's very helpful thank you. Also what age is the best to work on stuff like that. I mean is it good to work on a puppy 8-months-old?Or should I be more understanding because she's 8 months old?
Joel has videos about younger dogs and even a breakdown of when to do what if you look on his channel.
Great video!
My Presa pup sits and watches your videos with me 😂
It's exhausting! This dog reminds me of my GSD. I walk him daily, and by the time we get back home, I am completely spent. He barks at ppl, and other dogs. He lunges etc... I'm tired just typing this in....
can you please start linking somehow the full video? I can never seem to find the original video..
Hey dog people 😊
HI!
@@rptrick79 👋😁
Hey 👋🏼
Wow, what a pain of a dog. Thanks so much for your education of him. Still a long way to go for the owners I think. He seems a bit spaced out ...
For sure. The owners really do have a long road ahead of them and a lot of work, if they follow through. I'm curious to know what percentage of owners leave Joel's facility and stick with the program and what percentage doesn't put in the work. Joel and Garrett Wing briefly talked about this in one of the podcasts. Some owners leave the training sessions and don't follow through and some taper off, but some do take it seriously.
Maybe I'm missing something but how do you help them truly calm their minds so you can reward that (the calm) rather than just reward a behavior. Especially with Labs, they will obey (stop, sit, look), they will go through the motions, but their minds are not settled. In this video, to me, the dog still looks obsessed; he's just biding his time until he can get what he wants. I'm hoping there will be a follow up video.
Could this technique be used with a dog who when scared pulls back to the house/car? I am thinking that I've allowed her to get what she wants when she's scared and it's become a trained response. She has no awareness of me when on a leash so I'm thinking that I could start in the backyard on leash and use your technique to connect with me first and then go out into the big scary world outside of my backyard.
This is exactly like my dog! He knows all the basic obedience and some cool tricks, but he has no impulse control and a bad case of greeting frustration! He won't listen to me with treats and will even stop eating cause he wants the treats. I want to use this kind of method, but he's a small dog. I don't know how much force to use with him and I'm scared people will think I'm being cruel if I do this in the wild. I live in SD, I might save up and take him here.
The constant tail wagging of this lab is not happiness. I guess he is more excited and unsure of what is going on. 🎉
My 75 lb 8 month old retriever mix is THIS DOG lol
My dog is worse...a pit bull. But all I know is that he is soooo loving, friendly and emotionally connected to me...I don't care if he's a little naughty...as long as he's not vicious and his intentions are good
