Thanks, its not vulnerable just honest, all creatures are unique. My service dog is 3 years old and just getting the better walk but by design she is meant for herding cattle so she is a handful. She is my third service dog and not easy but in her defense she does a lot and a serious herding dog straight from a working farm. It's why they are not often seen as SD. The method i use is to back up just to the point before reaction we train yhere and if we are okay we do it again a step closer until we have done all her vulnerable tricks and we are right there. It is different and dometimes we have a bad week it happens to all great dogs, they are just not robots. Like the other day i forget to take her leash off and i three the ball, my bad and my pain. You are great at what you do and we love your shares.
We have an 11 month old Australian Shepherd we just adopted, this video helps so much thank you! What is the brand and type of harness you are using in this video? Thank you!
I just got my new puppy a week or so ago and we love him dearly but hes so hard to walk, he either will sit down and not move or run and pull whoever is walking him. Thank you so much for this helpful video Rachel💕
Rachel Fusaro No, I don’t think so! I never really thought of that and like that you can have it on your treat pouch like that. I know of people who have things like that on them in case of some random dog getting in their space/near their dog. Not something you want to have to use, but can help if needed.
Thank you for showing a REAL dog and his real life behavior. Finn behaves just like my Charley (also poodley), so it's immensely helpful to see his progress and how you work on it.
Rachel!!! You are the 7th person whose videos I am/have been watching. This one is 5 STAR for me. I have had my newly-adopted-from-the-same-foster-family two dogs for 24 hours, now. Neither has eaten more than a couple of pieces of food, so no interest AT ALL in treats. Lucy - 30 pound pit mix one-year-old - is sweet, missing most of her manners, and "seems" full of positive puppy energy. Sampson - 80 pound bully pit two-to-three-year-old - is smart, massively strong, and insecure, which is no surprise. We had enough challenges today to write a small book (started guarding toys AND me from Lucy, pushed through a gate and chased my chickens and then my miniature donkeys - who fought back, actually came to me in the pasture, so I could walk ha-ha him back to the yard, was OK with Lucy for a nap, just now bullied Lucy away from me at my computer . . . ) So - any thoughts on reinforcers, so I can leash train in my yard? I sense an old soul in this dog, and I have my sights on a month from now, but my 67-year-old body and sore hands may not be up to this challenge. (yes, I am - yes, I am)
Ann Gaydosh you’re starting on the right foot - that confidence will help more than you know. What about toys? Or verbal praise? Sounds like you have a lot on your plate so I’d try to start fresh. I’d remove all toys, bones and chews and just start working with them on basic obedience, exercise etc. It’ll make you the focus, not the toys. You got this!!
Thank you for putting this out because I live in an apartment and so this will help me on my new pup I cant really explain how much you help me and how much I want to thank you
Fantastic video thank you. Within the past month, I have taught my 4 year old min pin to walk properly using these techniques and I can't believe how quickly he's learning! Our walks are beginning to be a whole lot more pleasant. I'm so glad I pulled my finger out and finally trained him👍🏾
I am bringing home a rescue pup next weekend and have been watching your videos religiously! This will be the first dog in my life that isn’t a family dog, she’s all mine, so I have been a little anxious about training her correctly and making sure she is comfortable and happy. Thank you for your attention to detail, your honesty & for your channel in general! It is so appreciated ❤️
I needed this video so bad! My puppy pulls on his leash so much. He loves running and walking ahead of me. He is so interested in sniffing everything. Thank you! 💞
Wow, this was just what I needed. My puppy is generally good at not pulling except when there are distractions. I was struggling to find the right way to teach her to focus on me! I am watching your heel video again next because my puppy tends to stop sometimes and then sprint forward. Thank you, Rachel!
I love this so much!! I hate the idea that you need to "dominate" and be the "alpha". You don't need to rule with pain and fear! Letting the dog *want* to follow your direction with trust and praise is so much better for health and happiness for everyone ❤️
Thank you so much! Mt family has a 9 month old puppy, his name is moose and he is a golden doodle f1b. He likes to pull pretty hard, he doesn’t bark at many other things on walks but he will only walk well when my dad is with us because my dog sees my dad as the alpha. This will help so much
Yea! He isn’t a very nervous or anxious dog anyways so it shouldn’t be as hard as it my be for others. He is so chill and calming some day we might train him to be a therapy dog! Any tips on that
Thank you for the great advice on positive reinforcement during training! So many people go straight towards collars and harnesses that advertise they stop pulling. I was one of them! It didn't work at all for my doodle. What did was positively reinforcing heeling and good walking by frequent treating while she was demonstrating the behavior I wanted! We have to show our pups the right behavior and not rely just on equipment to do so.
🌈Rachel, love your family and love to see them on your videos as I so often do 😍 Could you consider making videos on the type of harness for both small and big dogs? Also, how about sharing your opinions on how to secure our puppies/dogs in the car? Do recommend brands that you trust for car seats etc... Thanks so much 😘
This video is so helpful,Thank you so much for making this video. My dogs are always pulling & it’s so hard to get there attention. Definitely going to try this.Love how u distract by going different directions.
I love your videos! They are clear and concise, you jump right in with info I find interesting and helpful. You do an excellent job with editing. Even a longer video goes by in a flash because they are so well done. I've had dogs for years, but I am without one now. I am planning to get 2 puppies this summer and will be re-watching your 'first day puppy' video a few times before the big day. Again, I think you do a great job and it is obvious how devoted you are to your dogs and all dogs
Rachel I love this! Thank you. My six month old doodle is so hyper and such a love and we work hard but it’s tough when he’s not perfect sometimes. I needed to see this today.
It is working for my two dogs. They like to bark and sniff everything before. They always pull me to the sideways. Thank you for this helpful video Rachel. It helps me a lot.
I have a seven year old German Shepard and she weighs about 75 pounds ,and she loves to pull on the leash. This video was so helpful 🙂 “Finn is so cute”❤️
These videos have helped me so much pretty soon I will be a dog mom I have been whatching your videos for two reasons they will prepare me and they are amazing GOD BLESS YOU
Yes girl! My 20 week old golden jaxson has a hard time walking as well. He wants to say hi to everything and everyone. Some times he barks/growls at other dogs (wagging his tail). He likes to pull too, I bought him a Joyride harness but I was advised to get a martingale collar, that that works better. I’m going to try to use your tips to see if he gets better...
Lucius is very much like finn with cats, and he is very aware of his environment. Even though he is partially sighted he knows when something is different and then he's on high alert throughout the whole walk!
I just wonder that.... HOW THE F*** DO U KNOW THAT WHAT I M STRUGGLING WITH!!! U always make videos on real problems with dogs with best ever solutions....♥️♥️love ur videos btw Thanks for helping
Big respect to this channel. New dog day. My dog will be here Saturday. So excited. Really enjoying your vids. Keep up the awesome work! Newly subbed as well. 😊
My lab loves other dogs and it is one of the only times he acts crazy on leash. He used to have a huge issue of being reactive towards people because he was scared of them. It took me ages to get him out of that habit but now he will be somewhat calm around people, mainly he just wants to say hi now. Working on cats with him now so he doesnt react as bad to them
Planning on getting a 2 year old retriever mix from a animal shelter near me and it says in his bio he pulls towards humans and dogs so now I’m binge watching your TH-cam videos
Awesome! That was helpful /you made me think a little bit about how to work around the challenges me and my shepherd are dealing with. Will definitely try out some of your tips - thank you much 😊
Great video! My dog walks pretty well most of the time but I definitely need to work on this stuff with squirrels though!! Those are her downfall and being a hound mix will try to get them
Hi Rachel I’m new to your page but for the past week I’ve been watching all your videos you’re great!! Pretty much caught up with all your helpful tips. You’re truly an inspiration 💜 I’m getting a new puppy next Monday so I’m super excited but nervous I want to be the best dog mom I can be and really train him. I’m sure I’ll have no problem showering him with love but I’ll be new to the training. I order the dog+bone leash but I’m looking for a good harness? Any links to any
I am really glad that I start a channel I was looking for dog training and dog food and all that stuff because I’m getting my first ever puppy pretty soon and I want to be repaired because I don’t wanna be a bad dog mom or whatever I am really glad that I found a channel and this is going to help a lot I guarantee you I have so many dog channels but like none of them post a lot of anything so I’m really really really glad that I can have your dog channel that poses almost every day almost but I really enjoy your channel and subscribe like that was wrong and everything in the stuff helps me a lot thank you very much ❤️❤️❤️😇🤩🥳🥳🥳
Great tips these tips help a lot. Just wanted to say the harness you use just be careful because the top of the back part sits right on the dogs wither (shoulders) and can effect the movement of the dog.
Do you have any leash walking tips for houses that have invisible fences? In my neighborhood, we have a lot of neighbors that have invisible fences and their dogs have full range of the whole yard and when we walk our dogs, the dogs in the invisible fence continue to follow and bark all the way across the front of their yard and it is very distracting for our dogs.
I enjoy your videos , thank you for your inspiration. My 4month old white shepherd does well but on the way back starts pulling once she knows we are heading back. How do I stop her from pulling going home?
I have a large 80lb lab mix who is leash reactive. I’m only 100lbs so it can be difficult at times. She is the BEST dog otherwise. And if she’s off leash she listens and could care less about other dogs. Anyways, what harness are you using? I use a pinch collar. I know some are against it but it’s the only thing that works so far. But I hope I can find a harness that works as well
The "negative" in "negative reinforcement" means to take something away; positive = applying something, negative = take something away. Positive reinforcement is, e.g., giving a treat. Negative reinforcement is, e.g., giving more line on a lead when Fido isn't pulling (taking away the tight restraint). Positive punishment is, e.g., yelling at a dog. Negative punishment is, e.g., withholding affection when Doggo whines (taking something away to decrease the likelihood of a behavior in the future).
I know this is an older video, but I have a few questions. Can you share where that awesome leash and harness are from, along with the treat bag. I have a dog who pull so much and reacts just like yours with the cats in the neighborhood. I’d love to have better supplies to help me out on these tips. The harness we have bows clip is by his back. I feel like this one would be better to hopefully keep him beside me. I also love the idea of the leash around me to help with the pulling as well. Thanks so much in advance 🌈❤️
@@RachelFusaro thank you for sharing ... I have my puppy currently on the ruff wear front hook harness.. I love it. I feel my puppy is secure with it.. And am trying to train her on loose leash walking .. But sure its tough with a high energy goldendoodle puppy .. So this video is very helpful.. Thank you
I want to try this leash training in the morning after he potty. Can I use the regular dog food to reward him and make that his breakfast? Or i have to give him treat and give him separate breakfast when we get home? When i wake up i take him potty and walk, only give him treat when he go potty, and when we come home i feed him breakfast.
Hey Rachel just wanted to ask ,is it very difficult to take care of a puppy for a first timer and also can I leave my 3 month old puppy alone for 2 to 3 hours
yes, taking care of a puppy is a lot of work. It is MUCH easier with the right tools, routines and structure. I share the best things to start with here: th-cam.com/video/e1AfAclEVQU/w-d-xo.html
Can you do a video on how to get your dog to like going on walks? I’m getting a new puppy in 4 days and I’m planning on taking her for walks once I get the right harnes for her.
Can all of this translate to small dogs? Bending over a lot to reward is gonna kill my back. I have a 5 month old chihuahua terrier mix and a 14 month old chihuahua Dachshund. Both girls. Also how can I do this with two dogs? They are both very reactive dogs. Also would I need front clip harnesses for the both of them?
so my dog doesnt pull but she loves to cross in front of me over and over again, its very frustrating should i just keep redirecting her to one side? any help is apprecitated.
“Your dogs don’t understand English” 😂 one of my life goals is to make a doggie translator app and doggie thought translator. So we can know what our dogs are saying when they bark at us or other things
@@RachelFusaro Where can I buy this? Especially the model you have which is hands free. I’m in the UK and I’m not finding what I think I see on your video.
I've been trying this, but my puppy just puts on the breaks, sits or lies down and won't move. I tried treats and she comes but then it happens all over again. She's very stubborn and I don't know what to do.
Hi Rachel, the problem with my dog is that when we go for a walk he's not interested in any treats and it's hard to get his attention. Don't know what to do 😭 do you have any advice? Thank you!
Please please please, the pepper spray has to be practiced with out your dog and then when your dog is around so you know not to spray them so get help because this is a chemical burn, it's not safe. Then you have to check it periodically outside safely and you have to keep easily clipped in front of you to prevent accidents. If you have to go digging that is not safe and a treat bag is not safe as your dog will be directing attention there. Each municipality has their own laws on pepper spray so know this as it's a weapon. Take a course or get professional help to do it right. I had a special bag that held it across my chest to grab it and when driving removed to a sealed plastic bag so it does not go off accidently, and then you have go think first before using and make sure it's facing the right way, please everyone share tips and stories here so we can learn.
How many times a day would you do this ? I tend to go out on brief walks just like this for training about twice a day. Would you recommend more than this ?
Hi I just wanted to let you know that because you are not quite sure what breed fin is I found out that he is mostly goldendoodle as you already new but is also 5% poodle so I just wanted to get that out of the way 😊
What do you do of your're the cat house? We have a doodle and farm cats outside. She is constantly trying chase after them off leash and pull on leash.

Try these out, and remember to be patient. It will take time. You got this!
Miah my puppy can’t go on walks because she dosnt have her shots
Im getting my puppy in 2weeks soo😭😭
Miah I’m having the same problem with my new pup! She just sits and doesn’t want to go anywhere, it’s so frustrating.
@@rencooley I know!!! I get so frustrated I just want to drop the leash and leave.
The pepper spray 😂😂
Should i have cut that out?! hahaha
Rachel Fusaro no hahahaha
Rachel Fusaro No, I don’t think so! I never really thought of that and like that you can have it on your treat pouch like that. I know of people who have things like that on them in case of some random dog getting in their space/near their dog. Not something you want to have to use, but can help if needed.
Thank you for showing a REAL dog and his real life behavior. Finn behaves just like my Charley (also poodley), so it's immensely helpful to see his progress and how you work on it.
Rachel!!! You are the 7th person whose videos I am/have been watching. This one is 5 STAR for me. I have had my newly-adopted-from-the-same-foster-family two dogs for 24 hours, now. Neither has eaten more than a couple of pieces of food, so no interest AT ALL in treats. Lucy - 30 pound pit mix one-year-old - is sweet, missing most of her manners, and "seems" full of positive puppy energy. Sampson - 80 pound bully pit two-to-three-year-old - is smart, massively strong, and insecure, which is no surprise. We had enough challenges today to write a small book (started guarding toys AND me from Lucy, pushed through a gate and chased my chickens and then my miniature donkeys - who fought back, actually came to me in the pasture, so I could walk ha-ha him back to the yard, was OK with Lucy for a nap, just now bullied Lucy away from me at my computer . . . ) So - any thoughts on reinforcers, so I can leash train in my yard? I sense an old soul in this dog, and I have my sights on a month from now, but my 67-year-old body and sore hands may not be up to this challenge. (yes, I am - yes, I am)
Ann Gaydosh you’re starting on the right foot - that confidence will help more than you know. What about toys? Or verbal praise? Sounds like you have a lot on your plate so I’d try to start fresh. I’d remove all toys, bones and chews and just start working with them on basic obedience, exercise etc. It’ll make you the focus, not the toys. You got this!!
@@RachelFusaro Thank you - I like your ideas!

I enjoy your videos , thank you for your inspiration. My 4month old white shepherd does well but on the way back starts pulling once she knows we are heading back. How do I stop her from pulling going home?
Your dogs are so smart! How do you train them so well!? My dog just looks at me and walks away!🤣😂
How to train a dog not to chase cars or bark on people that are walking by?? Plz plz really big issue every time we come out....
I am having to hunt for your products. Right now I can’t find the hands off leash in many of your leash videos.
I have a large 80lb lab mix who is leash reactive. I’m only 100lbs so it can be difficult at times. She is the BEST dog otherwise. And if she’s off leash she listens and could care less about other dogs. Anyways, what harness are you using? I use a pinch collar. I know some are against it but it’s the only thing that works so far. But I hope I can find a harness that works as well
what di you do if your puppy suddenly stops and does not move?
So do you ALWAYS have treats on you on your walks? How do you get to a point where they just listen without all the treats?
Do you recommend the hands-free/waist leash you use? What brand is it, please?
I love this! But my dog completely loses focus when we go out. She just doesnt listen. Any help would be awesome.
The "negative" in "negative reinforcement" means to take something away; positive = applying something, negative = take something away.
Positive reinforcement is, e.g., giving a treat.
Negative reinforcement is, e.g., giving more line on a lead when Fido isn't pulling (taking away the tight restraint).
Positive punishment is, e.g., yelling at a dog.
Negative punishment is, e.g., withholding affection when Doggo whines (taking something away to decrease the likelihood of a behavior in the future).
Our dog does not like eating so we don't know how to reward her. Any tips?
I know this is an older video, but I have a few questions. Can you share where that awesome leash and harness are from, along with the treat bag. I have a dog who pull so much and reacts just like yours with the cats in the neighborhood. I’d love to have better supplies to help me out on these tips. The harness we have bows clip is by his back. I feel like this one would be better to hopefully keep him beside me. I also love the idea of the leash around me to help with the pulling as well. Thanks so much in advance 🌈❤️
Amazing video.. Thank you... Can you please also share the harness and leash you use ? Thanks
The harness is a freedom harness, and the leash is from Dog + Bone. I do not LOVE my harness though, i am looking for a better one
@@RachelFusaro thank you for sharing ... I have my puppy currently on the ruff wear front hook harness.. I love it. I feel my puppy is secure with it.. And am trying to train her on loose leash walking .. But sure its tough with a high energy goldendoodle puppy .. So this video is very helpful.. Thank you
I want to try this leash training in the morning after he potty. Can I use the regular dog food to reward him and make that his breakfast? Or i have to give him treat and give him separate breakfast when we get home? When i wake up i take him potty and walk, only give him treat when he go potty, and when we come home i feed him breakfast.
I have the same problem with my girl launching at other big dogs and we've been training this for months but still doesn't help...
try these techniques, and stay patient. it takes time, you got this!
Hey Rachel just wanted to ask ,is it very difficult to take care of a puppy for a first timer and also can I leave my 3 month old puppy alone for 2 to 3 hours
yes, taking care of a puppy is a lot of work. It is MUCH easier with the right tools, routines and structure. I share the best things to start with here: th-cam.com/video/e1AfAclEVQU/w-d-xo.html
Can I leave it alone
Can you do a video on how to get your dog to like going on walks? I’m getting a new puppy in 4 days and I’m planning on taking her for walks once I get the right harnes for her.
What kind of leash do you use to go around your waist ?
Can all of this translate to small dogs? Bending over a lot to reward is gonna kill my back. I have a 5 month old chihuahua terrier mix and a 14 month old chihuahua Dachshund. Both girls. Also how can I do this with two dogs? They are both very reactive dogs. Also would I need front clip harnesses for the both of them?
so my dog doesnt pull but she loves to cross in front of me over and over again, its very frustrating should i just keep redirecting her to one side? any help is apprecitated.
I love how she doesn’t care what anybody thinks about her, she could be wearing a clown suit and she would not care why people are staring at her.
My late dog pulled me and my new dog too!! I let them walk where they want to smell. I know it’s not good
Jennie cartier I def give in sometimes as well 🙃
It’s hard when they are so cute
I just had the best walk with my dog she didn’t pull me and didn’t bark back at some dog in the neighborhood!! She listened so well
U should make a video for what it’s like during meal time
How did you attach the leash to your body in order to be hands free?
Hi Rachel! Im getting a Puppy and i want to know what the best family dog please reply
“Your dogs don’t understand English” 😂 one of my life goals is to make a doggie translator app and doggie thought translator. So we can know what our dogs are saying when they bark at us or other things
Hey Rachel! What brand of waist leash is this? ☺️
What gentle leader does he have on?
freedom harness!
@@RachelFusaro Where can I buy this? Especially the model you have which is hands free. I’m in the UK and I’m not finding what I think I see on your video.
I've been trying this, but my puppy just puts on the breaks, sits or lies down and won't move. I tried treats and she comes but then it happens all over again. She's very stubborn and I don't know what to do.
Hi Rachel, the problem with my dog is that when we go for a walk he's not interested in any treats and it's hard to get his attention. Don't know what to do 😭 do you have any advice? Thank you!
We just rescued and it’s so hard to train walking outside. He barks at everything, lunges and pulls :(
What leash and collar do you recommend for puppies?
Hello everyone
hellooo! welcome :)
Do you recommend having the leash around your waist?
My dog’s also called Finn so when you said his name he looked so confused 😂
hey rachel, have you ever had a poochon dog? and if so how was your experience.
I have not :(
Rachel Fusaro ok. :)
Please please please, the pepper spray has to be practiced with out your dog and then when your dog is around so you know not to spray them so get help because this is a chemical burn, it's not safe. Then you have to check it periodically outside safely and you have to keep easily clipped in front of you to prevent accidents. If you have to go digging that is not safe and a treat bag is not safe as your dog will be directing attention there. Each municipality has their own laws on pepper spray so know this as it's a weapon. Take a course or get professional help to do it right. I had a special bag that held it across my chest to grab it and when driving removed to a sealed plastic bag so it does not go off accidently, and then you have go think first before using and make sure it's facing the right way, please everyone share tips and stories here so we can learn.
Ana Larson ❤️
How many times a day would you do this ? I tend to go out on brief walks just like this for training about twice a day. Would you recommend more than this ?
Is Fin a Sheepadoodle?
Hi I just wanted to let you know that because you are not quite sure what breed fin is I found out that he is mostly goldendoodle as you already new but is also 5% poodle so I just wanted to get that out of the way 😊
What do you do of your're the cat house? We have a doodle and farm cats outside. She is constantly trying chase after them off leash and pull on leash.
My old puppy didn't pull on it, he sat it the grass and chilled he didn't get up if we dragged him lol
You should go on tour (to Michigan 😂)
Hehehe I have a "Cat House" near me too!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣
