- TRAINING HYPER, STRONG BORDER COLLIE. Collies are full of energy and if there was any doubt in my mind about that I was proven that it is the case with this Collie that was found abandoned. As always a joy to work with and I quickly find out what makes him tick.

I found a 3 year old border collie in my local SPCA a few months back, here in France. When I first saw him he was in a pen with many other dogs, but he was at the far end bouncing up at the fence trying to get out. The staff told me he was a trouble dog, always fighting other dogs over food, and that he had literally climbed up the 8ft high fence to get out and fell, hurting his leg.
The dog wouldn't stop his barking and fence climbling, but the staff finally got him collared and brought him out to me. Once out he calmed down a bit and I was able to spend a few moments together. The staff kept telling me that he would be a trouble dog and require a lot of work. But I have had border collies my whole life and I recognised the anxious behaviour, and while other people had immediately been put off the dog by it, I was not.
He and I got on like a house on fire, we bonded straight off. It was clear to me that he was gentle, obviously loving and intelligent. But his physical state was absolutely immaciated, starved, and the SPCA staff told me that he had been locked in a garden and literally starved. Finally, when the dog was almost at death's door, his old owner had surrendered him to the SPCA along with all his papers.
I returned the next day as usually you must wait about a week before you can adopt a dog and I wanted to get to know him more, but the staff said I could take him immediately. I took him home, bathed him, fed him and over the next few months restored his weight and health, and as his personality revealed itself and he became more comfortable and settled, I realised that I had struck pure gold in that SPCA when I found this guy. I have ended up with the sweetist, most endearing, intelligent, gentle and 'keen to learn and please' dog in the world. No problem with food, not aggressive at all, and I wouldn't part with him for love or money.
I am currently training him and finding the tips and techniques shown on this channel to be incredibly helpful.
BC's really need a lot of attention and 1-on-1 time and of course lots of exercise and excitement! But if you give them what they need, they will never disappoint and always give back 10x the love. So glad you gave him a chance and found your "one". I'm sure you will give him the best life and spoil him!
What if someone wants to buy your dog for 10 million
This gentleman is really amazing ..... not only in his training techniques, but EXPLAINING the training for us newbies out here.... as well as what is going on in the dog's mind.
My wife and I used to rescue smooth Collies as well as Mastiffs. While not border collies like this one, they were a dream to train. I really loved them.
This is an excellent series. Helping out a shelter animal
Is commendable. As being a former volunteer, I say thank you.
I'm liking this new type of content for your channel it's a good look and highly appreciate it
Just watching Border Collies move brings me joy. I've had two, and they were spectacular dogs, especially with my family. Training is a breeze (assuming you're into training dogs).
Loved watching this cuz I saw my little puppies brain in how quickly the collie learned. He’s still a puppy attention span but he’s SO much easier to train than Any of the other puppies in socialization class.
I absolutely love this new series!!! I love being able to see you working with dogs, and explaining what you are doing and why. Not only are you helping the dog (most importantly) but you are also helping your viewers. Great video 😁
The training techniques on this channel work. We rescued a border collie wandering next to the highway 3.5 weeks ago. The first week or so she was learning, but not that great considering her intelligence. The redirect technique has been a game changer. In this video, his comment regarding treat rewards becoming bribery hit home as it was something I started to realize just a few hours ago. We were training her not to bark when she sees another dog outside or if she sees someone outside our home. We redirected by having her sit and then she would get a food reward. She caught on quickly, but once she was quiet for a bit she began giving out a weak bark every little bit. We took away the treat after the redirect and voila.... the barking ceased! Thanks Will and team!!!
This video is VERY interesting! I adopted a deaf collie in 2016. He was about 18 months. When I throw the ball he fetches it then he keeps it. If I try to get it back he walks away! Walking him in the beginning was an absolute nightmare, but now I barely feel the lead. There is zero tension. He is very clever and will work for food. But I'm not as good a trainer as you.
Thank you very much for adoptig the poor doggo Your a good person
I have the sane problem with my BC. He loves the ball or frisbee. He'll fetch but not bring it back to me. If I approach him he runs like it's a game. So I just walk away. He's more food motivated then you motivated. You'd think he'd get it. My other dog, an Aussie, is ball obsessed and brings any toy right back to me immediately to continue play.
@@barbarageach7448 most of the time I throw a ball or frisbee for my border collie she excitedly watches it fall then looks at me to throw something else. Sometimes she does catch the ball. Eventually I’ll have her bringing it back I’m sure lol
No doubt that this new series are just great. Will is a great canine behaviorist and a great human being too.
Absolutly love this episode. Wonderful to see the progress
You sir are a credit to the dogs you work. My Borders are the best dogs I have ever had. Once I establish who is boss and give them clear directions and expectations, they will do anything. Oh, and they are the most loving, loyal dogs you could ever ask for. Well done!
What a total joy to see this today. Thank you.
Thank you for helping him!
This dog is so intelligent!
Love the video & looking forward to the next video on this dog, I really hope this dog gets rehomed, we have a 7mt old Border collie that we are training
@fenrir canine training Your approach to these videos is very clear and concise, and well explained. As someone who is doing a lot of research about what to do when I finally get a border collie I've very much clicked with what you're saying, especially as I appreciate how much effort a collie can/will be. While a more chilled breed would be less effort I would like a dog which can accompany me on mountain days, fell runs and long bike rides as a companion and therefore the energy the rest of the time is something I'll just need to deal with with the mental and physical stimulation during the days when we're not in the hills and mountains having fun.
This is so helpful! Thank you
Great instructive video showing how to build up relationship and leadership based on expectations. I hope to be able to put it into practice as soon as I adopt the longed for Dachshund puppy. I wish to avoid mistakes we did with our former 2 Dachshunds and a Dobermann/Boxer mix: they were sweet and non aggressive, but just as misbehaving as this beautiful Border Collie. Thanks for sharing and best wishes from Switzerland, Magdalena 🙋🏼♀️
Wow. This a very educational and informative video. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much for doing this
Thank you for watching!
I love these new videos so much I'm hooked
It is the same for me!
I hate that German Shepherds and Rottweilers and Malinois and others aren’t accepted in many places as far as living goes. There’s no reason a well trained dog should not be allowed somewhere in my opinion (with some obvious exceptions). And you can tell when a dog is well trained just on sight. Love those dogs.
My collie mix goes everywhere with me but he’s also my service dog so far I’ve only had issues one time but everywhere else I’ve had no issues people in my area loves my dog.
I have a Border Collie who is so well behaved in the house.. never tears up anything even if left for hours. Her trouble is with meeting new people. We adopted her as a puppy right before Covid showed up so she didn’t get socialized and she’s sketched out by people. She likes people she’s met a bunch but is super weird around new people. I’m terrified she’ll bite someone!! I’ve never had a dog that didn’t like people…so stressful!!!
I stand outside of stores with mine, to get them used to people, and not running for/away from them. You'll have people want to come up to you, and you'll have space/time to request them not to, if your dog's not ready. As your dog gets more comfortable, move closer to the entryway.
The trick is for you to be calm, and to praise your dog when it's calm. Not quiet, but calm. Bring a pocketful of pup's favorite treat. When you're really comfortable, ask people if they'd mind giving your dog a treat. Eventually, the treats won't be necessary and you'll have to teach your dog to leave strangers.
Have the exact same issue. Six month old border collie pup that wants to murder anyone hwo isn't my wife or I.
Great video! You just described my 1 year old, short haired working line collie, LOVES PPL AND DOGS, sweetest nature, super intelligent, but when out and About looses focus and a little obedience, has to meet everyone (something we're working on), she loves toys so I'm going to switch more to that as reward.
It's funny I think we got her to 10-11 month's and thought great she's trained, obedient but reality has hit us, we need to keep going. I suppose it never ends but At least for another 2years to really bake it all in for her hopefully long life.
my border collie mix is 10 mos old, i have a wrought iron fence around my yard, right next to a neighborhood commons area, i couldn’t get ppl to stop calling her over to pet so i had to build a fence in front of the wrought iton to stop her from self rewarding herself by greeting everyone she selects. I asked ppl nicely and they walked off in a huff. If this dog thinks she gets to decide who and when she meets people i won’t be able to take her anywhere. The fun part has been to watch her show her intelligence, I’ve had smart dogs before, but she’s on a different level in problem solving, and she’s only 10mos old.
Thank you so much
Very good and everything you say is very true 😊
Please people do not get a border collie unless you can be sure that you can absolutely give them what they need. Do your research and be sure. It wil be alot of commitment patience,understanding and enough exercise ,physical and mental, if you can then you will have the best friend you can have. Dont let a good dog go to waste .This was a very good informative video, I hope you listen and understand properly. 👍
I only just found your videos (wonderful by the way), and wish you lived a LOT closer (like across the Atlantic)! I have a border collie who my husband brought home as a 7 week old puppy-- 12 years ago next month. I've had border collies before, but none like this one! She's hyper-sensitive to every sound and movement. I've tried everything while on leash (including loops, serpentines and about-face), over the years, but nothing works. And there's no distracting her. That slip leash you use I never heard of until recently, but I think I'll give that a try. I hope it works better than a choker (I found the links end up kinking, no matter it's put on with them flat). Of all the dogs I've had over the years, this is the only one who has been such a problem. She's as smart as they come, so I hope 12 isn't too late! (Her intelligence is part of the problem. My husband isn't used to such a smart dog.)
It would be nice to see if you do a video of helping a collie walking by roads, mine tries to herd the cars and finds the whole experience of being near roads very stressful.
Love ur technique, empathy & compassion for the poor pups u work with. Vile heinous humans that abuse & neglect are the scum of the earth & should be severely punished. Dogs are a privilege & I wish all dogs only knew Love, Comfort & Care in their lives, sadly this isn't the case & Ur work is invaluable showing them the Best of Humanity. Thank you for saving them - I salute you🙏💟
Border collies in golden retrievers on my favorite breed, I absolutely love this dog. But it takes patience and you need a big yard for them
Fantastic Video. Any update on Charlie?
Great video. Btw you never mention in any video smooth collies. Do you have any expeirences with them? It would be ineteresting to hear what do you think about them. Do you consider them to be working dogs or rather show dogs like rough collies?
My border rescue dog is reactive on leash to everything moving, people, dogs and owns everything. Will go after other dogs if they have anything she thinks is hers. People, places, food on the counter. Very hard to deal with. She’s also the fun police when other dogs play or run.
This was very interesting, thanks for doing this video. I feel like I have an Aussie that has very similar tendencies, so I want to try to adapt this concept. What I was missing i. This video was seeing the first steps: How were you able to get him to put the toy in front of you/give the toy up voluntarily?
Can we see an update on Charlie ?
Yes, please!
I found this helpful, as my dog is also more toy motivated than food motivated. But, what do I do if she doesn't want to give up the toy?
I use tug-of-war to teach let go. As soon a the dog lets go, even a slip, praise them for letting go. Do this for a couple weeks, and your dog will understand what let go means. Then you can start using it as a command. Reward them with praise that makes you look like a looney, or food if you're still building confidence, eventually weening off the treats.
How do you get a dog to drop the toy so you can throw it again instead of wanting you to chase them for it and wrestle it off them
Great video man!! any advice for a 16 year old who wants to be a dog trainer and behaviourist?
I also really want to be a dog trainer! I am 13 and I have taught my dog to be trusted off leash in the front yard, loose leash walking, and every trick in the book in less than a year all by myself. We also have a very strong bond and trust with each other. Sorry if it sounds like I'm bragging, but looking back at what I've done at only 13 really makes me want to become a trainer. I also absolutely LOVE doing it!
@@renam2280 can u help me
@@nachogaming8798 What do you want to know? How to train your dog, or how to become a dog trainer? I'm am looking into either the Karen Pryor academy clicker training, or working for someone to train service animals.
@@renam2280 my 3 year Doberman constantly demand barks and whines without any reason even after all his heavy exercises and stuff is met he doesn't chill at one place
@@nachogaming8798 make sure you're mentally exercising him too. Using a kong, bob-a-lot, maze bowl, puzzle toy, and other brain games are amazing for that. I would put some lower value treats in a treat pouch and wear it around the house. When you see him laying down and relaxrelaxing (which it doesn't sound like he does it that much but try your best) you need to catch it and reward him. The youtube channel "dog training by Kikopup" is a good place to go too. Emily has quite a few videos on how to train "settle". You can also teach him a place, mat, or bed cue so he kind of figures out how to chill out on his own since he has to stay on the bed until you release him. Kikopup also has a great video on teaching "bed". I hope this helps you out!
I just got a border collie, she is 12 weeks old and is a handfull. I thought i was doing enough to keep her boredom down but i just cant seem to burn all her energy either mentally of physically.
Have you tried any choice games? Get the pup thinking? IYC by Susan Garrett is really fun
!!!!
How do you get a collie to stop wanting to play ball all the time and barking for the ball and not giving you a second alone without wanting to throw ball all day long my sisters dog is obsessed with the ball
I just rescued a 3 yr old collie that is also not food motivated, when I try to train him with a toy he just ends up jumping on me and going nuts. Any advice for that?
I have a collie. He's spectacular. But he pulls me so hard I can't walk him. I've got spinal arthritis. And I've been left with him. He sits he stays a bit. But he's so nervous going out. Could you help? 😢 I'm nearly having to give him up because he pulls at full throttle all the time?
Have you tried a gentle leader harness ? This worked for my collie
Okay, get on with it. Get to the point!
