This was a good one. That dog was hating it and its good to see you pushing through it. This is what people need to see because when the dog acts like that it can make you doubt what you're doing.
Definitely agree. The tough ones are best as with your skill the can still act up and doesn't phase you. It's good to see keep these ones coming as we need to see what to do with the more difficult. Thanks
I did this to one of my huskies today and he was not happy because he didn’t get to enjoy his walk coz I kept stopping when he starts pulling. I wish Beckmans training is near where I am at I have 3 I want trained.
Thank you for this one! Finally a dog that acts like mine. I was training at some goat field this afternoon and released him I don't know, 20 times, and he kept lunging at the end of the leash. I didn't even pop it back, he did 100% of the correction himself. People came up and asked what I was doing. I could tell they thought it was sad for the dog. I told them what's sad is he didn't get trained (properly) for 3 years and had no exposure to the outside world. He's already doing so much better with other dogs. In 6 months I want him to be able to chill with other animals too.
He is a beautiful American bulldog he is a very happy boy I like mr,beckmans training a lot but man it’s hard to watch a puppy so happy get worked hard like this but it will definitely make him a great dog and he will have such a better life being able to go places and live life would love to see more of this dog
I love how you show the dogs that are so difficult to handle, this is real and raw, unlike some of the videos on YT when it all looks so easy and quick, cause the dogs shown are so well behaved x
Tbh even the dog in this video is considered mild. My dog, and many leash pullers I met do not even come back when you tug. Especially if they are going for another dog. They will fight HARD and ZERO focus on the owner. Its like in that moment they have a tunnel vision.
Yeah! If I had known how destructive and crazy dogs (puppies) were, I really would have adopted an older, more obedient dog. My yard is destroyed as is some of my siding. She’s escaped several times and fights the leash like you’re trying to kill her with it. People need to stop saying “please adopt this lonely puppy.” They NEVER say how destructive and how high maintenance they are. Only small hollow words like “yeah puppies need some attention but they are sooo cute”. I’m tired of the lies. People need to be warned!
I have 2 dogs and was is much more of a puller than the other. They are both much better after one trip down our long driveway than they were when I started ! So far so good! Thank you!
I Love your training videos! My son and his two dogs moved in with me a few months ago. They had a Huge pen and the Lab mix busted them out. Now they're in the house. Over the last few months, the same dog has bruised me from head to toe and drug me all over the yard. Until I started watching your videos. Within two days, after employing your techniques, I'm able to walk him on a loose leash, without getting beat up. Thanks So Much!
That was a great video! It's clear that he is a stubborn dog and that you were not harming him in any way. You gave him a command, and he clearly said NO WAY! Great video!
This is a good video thank you very much. Ive got a two year old dog that pulls a ton, nose in the grass etc and Ive been trying to train her not to pull… this correction helped a lot, although she just kept pulling every ten feet, but when the leash got tight i did your correction and she responded really well… so now i just need her to stop leading bc it tires her out so much even on a 20 minute walk. Either way, great lesson for a rookie dog owner. Thank you
I am so glad I dug up this video. I have a 7 month old boxer/American pitbull terrier rescue pup who is 53lbs of solid pulling machine. I am not a tiny person and he has caused me to stumble more than once when he spotted an insect and decided to rapidly bulldoze to the end of the leash when I least expected it. He is insanely strong for his size, and I just have not done the best job with him on manners on a leash. I appreciate that you discuss expectations being different for young, crazy pups vs. more mature dogs.
I've watched every dog trainer on TH-cam. Beckman is the only one I watch now. He does not edit, cut, or use already-trained dogs. He bakes from scratch and lets us see the entire process, even the frustration.
I've been following a youtube channel where positive reinforcement is emphasized. I never got my dog to stop pulling during leash walking. Now, I just watched one of your video about leash pulling, applied what I learned and now my dog is very behaved on leash. Yet I can still see that my dogs enjoys the walk.
Yes, Joel flashing his hands around the dog's face to desensitize dog to when you will eventually want to be able to access his collar without him always dodging! nice
I have a English Mastiff. And got him back after the divorce quite unruly. A big no-no for such a large dog. I’m so glad I came across a few of your videos. The prep before leaving the house is paramount. The pull back before outside peeing builds into acceptable leash behavior on the walk. You are the only TH-camr who delivers from just watching your videos. Thanks 🙏🏿
Curious to see, two dogs walking together. Mine do good one on one. Obey, stay close. Do well at ignoring other barking dogs. However together, they go full blown bucking bronco on me. (One is 10yrs old and little, the other is 1.5yrs old, medium in size) Currently when I walk them, they are on separate leashes. I used to be able to train dogs to safely and obediently -walk off leash. I had a stroke from a wicked migraine and have lost the ability to recall the lessons. I know consistent repetition and taking the time, is crucial. These videos really do work and help out beyond words! Tysvm🎉
finally a video that speaks to me & my 11mos old dog! the “tug o war leash dance” drives me crazy…making progress with Beckman’s methods but slow go; i loved when Joel walked up the leash as i have done that a million times! 😂 glad he does it too!
This guy is great. All these other purely positive reinforcement people got me second guessing my initial intuition. His methods are just more natural.
Thank you! Watching you work with this dog showed that with patience and consistency, most dogs will eventually become easier to handle. I especially appreciate when you say, "Was this perfect?" Followed by not totally, but in due time a form of it is achievable ;-)
I use your method 2 mornings ago and this guy pulled up in a truck and said " I don't like the way your walking your dog" I told him that's okay and he said no and pulled a gun on me... I like your methods they work ... This happened in Palm springs CA
Dang!! Idiots. I would keep trying at home in the back yard so that In public it isn’t as bad. But yea I got stares too. Now I have a lovely walking buddy. Gonna post a video today!!
Wow! Some really crazy people out there! Glad you're okay! I hope they run his plates & catch him before he hurts someone. Hey, if @🕳️'s hone in on you, you must be doing something right! Keep up the good work!Lol.
I wish you were in Pennsylvania! We have 2 young intact "bullies" (10 month Rottie and a 13 month pit) and we can't get a trainer to talk to us. I watch your videos but I really gotta buckle down and train them myself. Thank you for these videos ❤
This is so much like my 9 month GSD!!! Thank you so much! I thought for sure i was doing something wrong because all the other dogs were catching on so fast! Thank you!
Thank you for this great video. This is how my dog was!! Then I started useing your training methods. Thanks to YOU😃I am now able to walk my dog any place!! I believe you are the best trainer I have watched👍Now I am able to enjoy my dog an not look like a dummy...I am on a arm base,all the dogs here are so obedient.Now I fit right in.I am so proud of my Dobie.You saved us an made my life happy!!!Still watching. Sincerely grateful Deborah and Trooper.
This lengend uploaded this video just a day before I bought a 9 month old pitbull of d craigslist. He has exact problem with the leash full of energy and running around everywhere pulling crazy during the walks. After doing this correction last 2 days in 4 walks, He seems to do much better now. This same key word "ah ah" during pull also helped me out with his harsh mouthing during the play. Thanks a lot. I never thought my first pet would be a wanna be dominant and energytic Pitbull puppy lol.
This is the second video I’ve watch learning how to correct the sort of leash reactivity behaviors with dogs and it’s very helpful because you were doing it in real time. Hello my name is Myranda, I have made previous comments on your videos I am the one who is currently living with my uncle and he has the 10 dogs and I am learning how to properly train my new dog and then eventually get to train all of his six year old husky malamute mixes that are completely untrained. Thanks so much for your channel.
I've been watching your vids for a while now and just wanted to say thank you for keeping the videos short, simple and effective. I appreciate what you do
Thank you so much for this !! Doing this with my puppy so we can leave house calmer! Your vids are great and I've passed them on to a friend who can't thank me enough! You are the best trainer ever!!!
I've watched quite a few of the leash training videos and this one gets my top spot. Most show puppies that have already learned very good control and not the struggle. This was very helpful and I like how you reinforce that it's a gradual progression. Thanks.
Joel you know what I liked most about that session, it was raw and real. I think all of us go on TH-cam and expect to see complete fixes in an eight minute video but that's not life ... This is life. The reality check teaches us that it's possible to get a well trained dog we just need to drop the quick fix and start training daily ! Awesome man, thank you 👍
I just tried your method on my 2 dogs. It works. They kept trying to pull but not nearly as often. For the first time I have hope that I can actually walk my dogs and enjoy it. This is awesome for them too. Thank you!!! Your amazing.
Thank you for this video. This is how my 4 month old puppy is responding to loose leash training. She’s growing fast so I’m trying to get results before she gets so much stronger.
We got to see a dog be hard headed and really continue to try to ignore the leash, so instructive, watched every second of this. "I said his name, he said no, and it's happening," no meanness; instead, clarity, determination and patience.
Thank you for the great training! It seems like every video is something my young dog does. I really appreciate the time you take to make these videos.
Fighting like a fish on a line, I love it! Then you ‘reel’ him back in. Occasionally we see dog stop to think, ‘Hmmm, maybe I need to do something different. This is not working out the usual way . . . ‘ 🤔🤔🤔
I loooooved this video, thank u so much for showing this crazy puppy and how to approach a crazy puppy like this one. hopefully this method will help a lot.
Ok. That was so great. Seeing a training session where it’s obvious that training takes time! So tired of seeing vids by people who edit and edit and make it look like if you don’t get your dog trained in 3 corrections or less you’re doing it wrong. This is exactly my boy dog. His attention is everywhere (not on me). He’s a puppy. Wants to go where he wants to go. I can do exactly the same training with my girl, same age, and she just gets it. But my boy? He’s a lot more willful. Not mean. Not aggressive. Just willful. And he needs work JUST LIKE this session. He gets a correction, he often just keeps trying to go where he wants to go. I just keep repeating until I wear him down. He starts to finally get it. We do it again the next day. I just have to work to not lose my patience. Because he is frustrating. So my keeping calm needs work too. And when I lose patience, it’s not with him, but with myself. And it happens because I feel like I’m failing. Must be doing something wrong because it didn’t work immediately. This video helps me understand that sometimes this just takes time. It’ll take however long it’s going to take. Just stick with it. So thank you so much for showing what training is like in the real world! You’re awesome!
he's just an energetic lil rascal who has never been required to ACTUALLY focus on a human other than when he wants to lol. he has always done what he wants.
Thanks to you, I’ve actually been able to loose leash walk my dog ❤️ I couldn’t do that before and I was frustrated with her constant pulling. Now we actually enjoy walks! Thank you!!!!
This video I found has been a lifesaver! I’m 50 with a 28kg strong 7 month old puppy who is just like this puppy! I’ve tried every positive reinforcement technique with no success he is crazy on the walk! I’m trying this today- the only thing is he gets frustrated with correction on the walk then starts lunging at me and biting the leash near my hand and won’t let go- not sure how to deal with this!
@@jillianelise5 They are awesome, specially with good socialization. I'm struggling with mine because she wants to play with every dog, and she plays rough. But overall it's and excepcional breed.
@@gilohi a big dog like that with high energy can cause trouble, especially for leash walking. My lab isn't huge but when he gets excited it's like he's been injected with super serum😂😂😂 i want to take him on more walks but i dread it since i know he'll be insane. I have to start using these tips and not letting him go ANYWHERE until he's calm. It takes the patience of a saint!!
Yes my puppy was like this dog when I first start to walk her! She didn’t care about me at all but the exciting world even though there were always positive reinforcement. I’ve been watching sooo many videos for stopping leash pulling and this is the one that works the best in just one day~ Thank you so much for sharing!!
I'd love to see you handle a small dog with tons of energy like mine. I got a 7 month old papillon-chi mix with insane energy levels. We have to exercise him before we do anything, even go on walks. Leash walking and leave it are our biggest challenges. He will stay but when released he goes nuts ripping up grass and picking up stuff off the floor.
Thank GOD I found your video!! We have a very strong Great Dane that no amount of nicely softy treats and rewards training is working to stop him pulling - and obviously he needs to learn to behave on a lead for when he’s full size 😩 putting this into practise first thing tomorrow!!! 🤞🏽
Hey Joel - I’m starting to work this method on my 1.5yr old Aussie mix. The difference is mine barks and play bows in frustration/protest (and maybe also confusion?). She’s extremely friendly and happy-go-lucky so I think she turns everything into a game when she doesn’t know what else to do. It feels wildly manipulative for a pup to do to me tbh 😂😂😂 but a less emotional part of me knows she’s just working different strategies. She’s scary smart and very used to solving her own problems. I don’t really know how or when (or if) to correct the barking while I’m also correcting the pulling/excitement, so it all just turns into a big ol correction-fest and feels too frantic for her to actually be learning anything. (She can walk beautifully on leash when there’s no exciting distractions btw). I’ve tried desensitization from a distance but we never progress to getting closer over time. The gentle leader is great but she’s too smart and just about any s l o w transition to a flat collar and shes back to wild. Are we just stuck with a gentle leader forever?
Sounds like you've got yourself a CaneEinstein! 🎓 Have you done Mr. Beckman's system for just standing there when you first walk out your door, letting the dog just take it all in? Followed by his Calming Ovals? Really helps settle a dog nicely.
@@28951SBDMDK lol caneinstein 😂 yeah, she’s doing really well and learning fast, until a neighbor or dog or something exciting comes around and I don’t allow her to engage/play/meet/fixate. I know the Aussie breed is really attracted to movement and she’s SO. PUMPED. BY. LIFE. in general that I think her underlying issue is just not knowing how to truly relax outside the home. We’re working on that too but the progress is undetectable to the human eye lmaooo
one thing ive seen he does is just pretend like they kind of did what you asked so they follow you back to where you started (then you dont treat) and start again. Also other trainers say as soon as they start changing energy you give your no command like his a lound "hey: and say "this way" and just go the opposite direction from the place thats changing their energy.
@@SkittleBombs yes that's def helpful! but that's where we're stuck :( I don't see progress...meaning, we always have to turn and maintain distance and we haven't been able to successfully breech a distance threshold. Now that i'm working through this troubleshooting comment thread with you all, i'm wondering if his tactic of pure desensitization and impulse control might be more practical as a first step the solution than just the leash pop and distance? I don't see a ton of videos on that specifically, but will poke around additional YT trainers with similar styles as well!
One thing to remember is the absolutely monstrous amount of energy herding dogs have. You may need to wear her out somehow before the walk to calm her down. Growing up, I had to play fetch with my blue heeler till my arm nearly fell off before I could even consider walking him.
I had a dog once and I trained it to eat the food off the floor whenever I dropped something. She was so adorable. But this guys training is much more advanced. I bet his dog can do lots of things.
This is the video I needed to see! Thank you so much for breaking it down and showing us step by step!! You have helped me and my two 6 month old rescue more than you know! I am so grateful, truly!
This looks all too familiar. Yep when you have a 125 lb pup things can be a bit tough. And not only mentally but physically exhausting. Thank you for showing us the reality side of training. It definitely requires patience and persistance. Especially for large dogs. I know any dog size is trainable however if you have a huge pup it's important to get a handle on training early on.
😀 goodness! I'm now addicted to your videos ever since I watched your vid on how to stop a dog form jumping on you. I tried your method on my Rotty who's a bad jumper and it worked within minutes. Now i'm gonna try this too and hope for the best. Thanks so much.
I have a 14 mo old Beagle and a 4 mo old lab/pit. They both pulled on the leash for walks but the beagle much more so. I started training them separately with your method 3 days ago. After 3 sessions the lab/pit pup is an ace walking loose-leash and always aware of my starting and stopping and sitting when I stop. BUT the beagle is strong-willed and has been allowed to pull to smell what she wants as long as she wants where she wants on a retractable leash until now. She focused on her own mission on walks and paid absolutely NO attention to us. Because the pup picked it up so quickly I was about to give up on the beagle till I saw this video. You helped me realize she just needed more consistent sessions to get her re-programmed. They are both outside dogs. The first day the beagle didn't even earn her way out of the gate. The second day she made it to calming ovals but no further. This morning (5th session) she made it to the road and walked loose-leash for the first time back and forth in front of our house. PROGRESS!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge! I have hope for this beagle but I do have one question. How do you advise introducing them to walk TOGETHER again?
Love your videos! This one especially was helpful for my granddaughter training her 5 month old pit bull pup, as he’s doing it all. Any suggestions on how to keep him from grabbing his leash and trying to play tug of war? Thank you for your videos.
What I found out about myself after watching your videos, I am not a purely positive person despite being a single childless woman. 😄 Those ones that always say ,"You have to start from DAY 1." which makes me feel hopeless although I only have a dachshund and not some big dog. And I definitely can not take 2 weeks off work to stay with my puppy. You were the 1st one who explained the stages, it gave me hope.
I really liked the fact that u r using a normal collar not some pokey prong collar i have a 4 month old golden retriever puppy and he is a crazy leash puller, with your method i can already see the progress on day one.....thanks for the video this helped a lot
i walked my dog's leash today because she wouldn't drop the leash, it did take her fun away, happy to see you used this trick, guess that wasn't a crazy method, thanks for the videos !
Great video. How do you deal with a dog who bites the leash and tugs it like a game of tug? I've tried redirecting, grabbing right up to the collar, drop it, sit etc and none have worked. Bringing out a treat sometimes works but I don't want him thinking that behavior will earn him a treat.
We need shirts that say "I'll do this all day". Keep up you videos, they're helping a lot of people!
They’re coming!
I can't wait! I will buy one
Lol, I’ve been saying that to my dog.
😂🙏🏼 YES!!!
Can’t wait for the merch!!! 🔥
This was a good one. That dog was hating it and its good to see you pushing through it. This is what people need to see because when the dog acts like that it can make you doubt what you're doing.
Agreed, the moment to moment detail in real time. Super valuable. It reduces the inference. Super helpful
Definitely agree. The tough ones are best as with your skill the can still act up and doesn't phase you. It's good to see keep these ones coming as we need to see what to do with the more difficult. Thanks

this was exactly my dog not but 2 months ago... the only thing that worked was the Beckman Method. Can't thank you enough, Joel!
Joel ... YES ... treats for CALMNESS... just what I want to reinforce ... many, many thanks!
Joel you know what I liked most about that session, it was raw and real. I think all of us go on TH-cam and expect to see complete fixes in an eight minute video but that's not life ... This is life. The reality check teaches us that it's possible to get a well trained dog we just need to drop the quick fix and start training daily ! Awesome man, thank you 👍
His spots are awesome looking!!!
I just tried your method on my 2 dogs. It works. They kept trying to pull but not nearly as often. For the first time I have hope that I can actually walk my dogs and enjoy it. This is awesome for them too. Thank you!!! Your amazing.
My dog acts just like this! Thank you!!!
Thank you for this video. This is how my 4 month old puppy is responding to loose leash training. She’s growing fast so I’m trying to get results before she gets so much stronger.
4 months is a bit young for this type of correction per Beckman.
We got to see a dog be hard headed and really continue to try to ignore the leash, so instructive, watched every second of this. "I said his name, he said no, and it's happening," no meanness; instead, clarity, determination and patience.
Thank you for the great training! It seems like every video is something my young dog does. I really appreciate the time you take to make these videos.
This is the video I’ve been waiting on! My 14 week old Saint Bernard pulls so hard on the leash he chokes himself!
Fighting like a fish on a line, I love it! Then you ‘reel’ him back in. Occasionally we see dog stop to think, ‘Hmmm, maybe I need to do something different. This is not working out the usual way . . . ‘ 🤔🤔🤔
I loooooved this video, thank u so much for showing this crazy puppy and how to approach a crazy puppy like this one. hopefully this method will help a lot.
Ok. That was so great. Seeing a training session where it’s obvious that training takes time! So tired of seeing vids by people who edit and edit and make it look like if you don’t get your dog trained in 3 corrections or less you’re doing it wrong. This is exactly my boy dog. His attention is everywhere (not on me). He’s a puppy. Wants to go where he wants to go. I can do exactly the same training with my girl, same age, and she just gets it. But my boy? He’s a lot more willful. Not mean. Not aggressive. Just willful. And he needs work JUST LIKE this session. He gets a correction, he often just keeps trying to go where he wants to go. I just keep repeating until I wear him down. He starts to finally get it. We do it again the next day. I just have to work to not lose my patience. Because he is frustrating. So my keeping calm needs work too. And when I lose patience, it’s not with him, but with myself. And it happens because I feel like I’m failing. Must be doing something wrong because it didn’t work immediately. This video helps me understand that sometimes this just takes time. It’ll take however long it’s going to take. Just stick with it. So thank you so much for showing what training is like in the real world! You’re awesome!
Great video . I have a bulldog with the same mindset. I'm glad you illustrated it takes time. Thought I was doing it wrong.
Now THAT is the type of leash reactivity I’ve been waiting to see.
he's just an energetic lil rascal who has never been required to ACTUALLY focus on a human other than when he wants to lol. he has always done what he wants.
Thank you for making this video. You are a life saver! let me try this methos with my 7 month lab puppy
Thanks to you, I’ve actually been able to loose leash walk my dog ❤️ I couldn’t do that before and I was frustrated with her constant pulling. Now we actually enjoy walks! Thank you!!!!
This video I found has been a lifesaver! I’m 50 with a 28kg strong 7 month old puppy who is just like this puppy! I’ve tried every positive reinforcement technique with no success he is crazy on the walk! I’m trying this today- the only thing is he gets frustrated with correction on the walk then starts lunging at me and biting the leash near my hand and won’t let go- not sure how to deal with this!
I’m starting to see this same reaction with my 7 month old
Love your training methods. I watch your videos 2-3 x a day. Some over and over to drill it into my head, and get the timing correct.
I just love the way prince prances.. he’s such an amazing boy
OMG Finally, that's is what my dog do. She stubborn as hell
My white lab has also mastered the "back up" method, now that he's 70+ pounds it's a lot more challenging 🤦♀️
@@jillianelise5 I feel you I have a Rottweiler 😥
@@gilohi I've always wanted a rottie!!!
@@jillianelise5 They are awesome, specially with good socialization. I'm struggling with mine because she wants to play with every dog, and she plays rough. But overall it's and excepcional breed.
@@gilohi a big dog like that with high energy can cause trouble, especially for leash walking. My lab isn't huge but when he gets excited it's like he's been injected with super serum😂😂😂 i want to take him on more walks but i dread it since i know he'll be insane. I have to start using these tips and not letting him go ANYWHERE until he's calm. It takes the patience of a saint!!
If this is what you call wild wait till you see my Crazy Cleo. She's insane! Thank you so much for these videos.
Yes my puppy was like this dog when I first start to walk her! She didn’t care about me at all but the exciting world even though there were always positive reinforcement. I’ve been watching sooo many videos for stopping leash pulling and this is the one that works the best in just one day~ Thank you so much for sharing!!
I'd love to see you handle a small dog with tons of energy like mine. I got a 7 month old papillon-chi mix with insane energy levels. We have to exercise him before we do anything, even go on walks. Leash walking and leave it are our biggest challenges. He will stay but when released he goes nuts ripping up grass and picking up stuff off the floor.
Thank GOD I found your video!! We have a very strong Great Dane that no amount of nicely softy treats and rewards training is working to stop him pulling - and obviously he needs to learn to behave on a lead for when he’s full size 😩 putting this into practise first thing tomorrow!!! 🤞🏽
Thank you for the process. You gave me great ideas. Thank you!
Thank you so much for this video!
I'll do this all day. Pretty sure my dog thinks that's a command. Thank you for the amazing videos and podcast now
Hey Joel - I’m starting to work this method on my 1.5yr old Aussie mix. The difference is mine barks and play bows in frustration/protest (and maybe also confusion?). She’s extremely friendly and happy-go-lucky so I think she turns everything into a game when she doesn’t know what else to do. It feels wildly manipulative for a pup to do to me tbh 😂😂😂 but a less emotional part of me knows she’s just working different strategies. She’s scary smart and very used to solving her own problems. I don’t really know how or when (or if) to correct the barking while I’m also correcting the pulling/excitement, so it all just turns into a big ol correction-fest and feels too frantic for her to actually be learning anything. (She can walk beautifully on leash when there’s no exciting distractions btw). I’ve tried desensitization from a distance but we never progress to getting closer over time. The gentle leader is great but she’s too smart and just about any s l o w transition to a flat collar and shes back to wild. Are we just stuck with a gentle leader forever?
Sounds like you've got yourself a CaneEinstein! 🎓 Have you done Mr. Beckman's system for just standing there when you first walk out your door, letting the dog just take it all in? Followed by his Calming Ovals? Really helps settle a dog nicely.
@@28951SBDMDK lol caneinstein 😂 yeah, she’s doing really well and learning fast, until a neighbor or dog or something exciting comes around and I don’t allow her to engage/play/meet/fixate. I know the Aussie breed is really attracted to movement and she’s SO. PUMPED. BY. LIFE. in general that I think her underlying issue is just not knowing how to truly relax outside the home. We’re working on that too but the progress is undetectable to the human eye lmaooo
one thing ive seen he does is just pretend like they kind of did what you asked so they follow you back to where you started (then you dont treat) and start again. Also other trainers say as soon as they start changing energy you give your no command like his a lound "hey: and say "this way" and just go the opposite direction from the place thats changing their energy.
@@SkittleBombs yes that's def helpful! but that's where we're stuck :( I don't see progress...meaning, we always have to turn and maintain distance and we haven't been able to successfully breech a distance threshold. Now that i'm working through this troubleshooting comment thread with you all, i'm wondering if his tactic of pure desensitization and impulse control might be more practical as a first step the solution than just the leash pop and distance? I don't see a ton of videos on that specifically, but will poke around additional YT trainers with similar styles as well!
One thing to remember is the absolutely monstrous amount of energy herding dogs have. You may need to wear her out somehow before the walk to calm her down. Growing up, I had to play fetch with my blue heeler till my arm nearly fell off before I could even consider walking him.
Thanks appreciate your videos
I had a dog once and I trained it to eat the food off the floor whenever I dropped something. She was so adorable. But this guys training is much more advanced. I bet his dog can do lots of things.
This is the video I needed to see!
Thank you so much for breaking it down and showing us step by step!!
You have helped me and my two 6 month old rescue more than you know!
I am so grateful, truly!
You are the BEST!!!!! I LOVE that u show the actual struggle!!! 🤗🤗🤗🤗Thank you for all the encouragement!!
Thank you so much for this.
I LOVE THIS VIDEO JOEL ! THIS is exactly how my dog/ puppy behaves...
Thanx for this video. This is just what I needed. I have a boxer dog that drives me crazy when going for a walk. Will start applying this.
This looks all too familiar. Yep when you have a 125 lb pup things can be a bit tough. And not only mentally but physically exhausting.
Thank you for showing us the reality side of training. It definitely requires patience and persistance. Especially for large dogs. I know any dog size is trainable however if you have a huge pup it's important to get a handle on training early on.
Great video man appreciate it 💯💪🏼
I really can't wait for them "I can do this all day" shirts! 😂
Great info!!
😀 goodness! I'm now addicted to your videos ever since I watched your vid on how to stop a dog form jumping on you. I tried your method on my Rotty who's a bad jumper and it worked within minutes. Now i'm gonna try this too and hope for the best. Thanks so much.
This is what i want to see! Great job🙏
I have a 14 mo old Beagle and a 4 mo old lab/pit. They both pulled on the leash for walks but the beagle much more so. I started training them separately with your method 3 days ago. After 3 sessions the lab/pit pup is an ace walking loose-leash and always aware of my starting and stopping and sitting when I stop. BUT the beagle is strong-willed and has been allowed to pull to smell what she wants as long as she wants where she wants on a retractable leash until now. She focused on her own mission on walks and paid absolutely NO attention to us.
Because the pup picked it up so quickly I was about to give up on the beagle till I saw this video. You helped me realize she just needed more consistent sessions to get her re-programmed. They are both outside dogs. The first day the beagle didn't even earn her way out of the gate. The second day she made it to calming ovals but no further. This morning (5th session) she made it to the road and walked loose-leash for the first time back and forth in front of our house. PROGRESS!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge! I have hope for this beagle but I do have one question. How do you advise introducing them to walk TOGETHER again?
cool part was, that one about not letting him to licking hand when you grab collar from leash, that learn him to calm down with most primal behaviour
Sweet dog , new world , their so curious about everything
Great work it helps so much keep up the great work
thanks for the video
Love your videos! This one especially was helpful for my granddaughter training her 5 month old pit bull pup, as he’s doing it all. Any suggestions on how to keep him from grabbing his leash and trying to play tug of war? Thank you for your videos.
thank you!
Loved this video....great to see dogs that take longer to get it ..
What I found out about myself after watching your videos, I am not a purely positive person despite being a single childless woman. 😄
Those ones that always say ,"You have to start from DAY 1." which makes me feel hopeless although I only have a dachshund and not some big dog. And I definitely can not take 2 weeks off work to stay with my puppy.
You were the 1st one who explained the stages, it gave me hope.
I’ve started telling my wild child rescue pittie that “I can do this all day”! 🤣
Seeing how the sausage is made - love it.
Thank you ❤️
Tough dog, going onto a problem dog, good thing they found you. Would love to see a"year later"
I really liked the fact that u r using a normal collar not some pokey prong collar i have a 4 month old golden retriever puppy and he is a crazy leash puller, with your method i can already see the progress on day one.....thanks for the video this helped a lot
i walked my dog's leash today because she wouldn't drop the leash, it did take her fun away, happy to see you used this trick, guess that wasn't a crazy method, thanks for the videos !
True leadership. I hope my dog meets you one day!
Joel, thank you for the good work. Any chance of showing us how training differs with primitive/hard to train dog breeds ?
Great video , i am doing this every day with my dog . Is getting better but very slow . We need more video with this dog.
Great video. How do you deal with a dog who bites the leash and tugs it like a game of tug? I've tried redirecting, grabbing right up to the collar, drop it, sit etc and none have worked. Bringing out a treat sometimes works but I don't want him thinking that behavior will earn him a treat.
So helpful!! 🐩🧡
