The TRUTH about k-9 Training k-9 p
Great information, would love to see the same instructions with a dog that’s not already highly trained. It would be helpful to see how to advance a dog through the “training” process. Thanks,
german shepherds are the trainers dog...not all dogs respond the same...
sherrcon that’s what I thought. I thought every other dog was “hard” and German shepherd were easy. Until I got one. Then I realise I’m just a bad trainer.
@@SuperGGLOL /and it boils down to stock, experience and dedication too...some dogs are just smart as heck and can understand in one/two/three commands to what is being asked like border collies and poodles...you can take a beginner/mediocre trainer with a German shepherd and that dog will make him look good in my opinion...and usually when someone says they are a bad trainer actually means they are a pretty good trainer...so you can't fool me...have a great weekend my friend...
sherrcon I’m a beginner and I’m struggling, it doesn’t help that this is my first dog. I’ll never give up tho. my GSD puppy is a drama queen, and very stubborn. She knows I got the goods but she doesn’t want to work for it. She can do it but she’s so damn lazy. She would lie down and look at me with sad eyes whenever I tell her to do something. She gives me the “i can do whatever I want boy”
She’s a lazy bastard, it’s hilarious but it can be frustrating. She does things sometimes but her consistency is off. Unlike most dogs, she isn’t happy when she does a successful trick. She’s just like “alright ok I’ll do it, now hurry up and give me the treat boy!”
sherrcon I’m just honest with myself. Not humble. Huge difference :p
Seeing her at 3:53 putting her head down to sniff so politely whilst technically staying on her place is the best thing I've seen all year 😍
I own a Malinois and know this very well. Their noses are so powerful the pick up on anything and everything. Often time it'll get them in trouble. His Mal however is well behaved and in control, and... SOOOOO BEAUTIFUL! 😍
I was laughing out loud at that part! So amazing!
It's so so cute. My dog does it
"your voice enough, your dog loves you." When I trained my GSD male, I NEVER used food, only verbal commands and hand signals. He learned beautifully!
Depends on the breed.
@@1Kitykat True, but get a pure bred GSD and you will find that they are the best of dogs. I love them with all my heart and come December, I'm starting with a new female GSD puppy. Sooo looking forward to our new family member.
@@josephin521 That's awesome! Congrats on the new puppy :)
Got.me.an American bulldog and she's great buy she's also a bulldog . Stubborn. She started listening to me once she realized she wasn't in charge
I’m wondering how you did that. I know Tom talked about how to wean them off of treats, however I’m wondering how you started off not using treats and got your dog to pick up commands with out food? I’m thinking abt getting a second dog and my first dog I used treats for and she is having problems like laziness when training, unwilling, very lackadaisical. If I get a second dog I want it to be very simular to how Lakota responds to Tom. Can you give me any advice. And yes I would get another gsd.
LOL I was so distracted at 3:50 watching Lakota not want to get off of the pet bed because she was told to stay there but leaning is far as she possibly could to look for treats on the ground. She is just too much! ♥️♥️😂
After watching 100’s of training videos on TH-cam since bringing my new Aussie puppy home a few months ago; This is the FIRST video that’s actually given me any insight. Most trainers seem to just be going through the motions.
I know and understand horses, and love training equines of all levels : especially “problem” horses. - I have the emotional connection, and training basics down with dogs as well, but have been searching for someone who has the ability to take that one step further.
Just a little round of applause - you seem to really understand the mind of a K9!
She responds perfectly, listens to your every word. Wow. It would be nice to see a dog that doesn't know the commands at all and how they respond.
Best video I've seen. I've been doing this but everyone kept telling me to give her treats. My dog doesn't like treats. She only wants praise. You can imagine how frustrated I've been trying to find her favorite treat... I'm so excited that I've been doing it correct. You have validated all my hard work with simple praise.
You explained everything so clearly in this video, well done!
It’s great isn’t it :)
Amazing!
This really hits home for me cuz i train my babies with treats as a pups and over time (6- 24 months) the treat rewards eventually go away when they realize the merit of their behavior. I didnt realize this was a good training technique. I was just training how i was raised lol. Crazy
I love how your voice changes when you speak to your dog! It sounds already friendly but even more when you talk to the dog. Love it!
The tone of your voice is a great traing tool and in general life with your dog also.
Can't get enough of you and Lakota. Nothing I love more than seeing great human-dog relationships. One of the best parts of training. Don't you agree?
Thanks!
I've seen this video like 30 times and still motivates me
:) thanks so much!
I never in my life used treats to train a dog! Love and praise was always the treat! Food tid bits came only as a treat afterwards! Or when we were just hanging out sharing treat time! 😊 so that we're hanging out buds, doing our thing, having fun together, in the same pack!
Yes!
Won't work for every breed but congrats
@@rhyswillett153 Jesus Christ he just said it was for his dog 🤦🏾♂️. He didn't say he was training every breed .
Took me a few hours, but finally found the video I really needed for my smart little bugger who won't do a damn thing without snacks lol.
Most dogs are smarter than most owners.
Absolutely...people are dumb....thats why I stopped human services after 12 years and started training dogs, haha!
Miscommunication is on both sides
My husky might be wiser than most, however she'sa terrible electrician/even worse engineer and gets confused by commands from disillusioned women....so speak for yourself Karen lol. 🚯🤦
I'm sure you have some dirty laundry of your own. Let's 👂
@@matthewball9055 lets hear about your dirty laundry so we can bash you
This is such good information! My favorite part to remember is 16:10 "Your voice is good enough guys....your dog loves you."
It's always easy to spot a competent dog trainer. Just watch how the dog interacts with him or her. Good job!
Love how great she is, almost any other dog would have been whining or fidgeting while their owner was not paying attention to them for that long.
People used to yell at me and tell me I'm a bad dog mom cuz I asked my collie to do multiple commands without giving a treat every time. Those same people would also be amazed at how well trained she was. I'm working the same way with my male pitty. He's a bit harder to train, though males in general never seemed to catch on as fast as my female. He's smart and he'll learn eventually.
Hahaha. It is said that pit type dogs Mastiffs, Boxers, Bullmastiffs, & any other droving or livestock Guardian dogs that are independent thinkers will train you if you're not careful. You absolutely must be smarter than they are... or it's going to be game-set-match in their favor!. Next time you get a puppy- wait, is your pit still a puppy by the way? Anyway with the independent thinker breeds I found it easier to be quiet and observant of everything your pup does, as you see it begin to sit or lay down or any other thing give that thing a name and call out the word and praised the dog for doing it and as the dog is happy and you're clapping for it or you have the happy voice and you're saying thank you or whatever your reward phrase is that puppy is going to want to come to you immediately so call its name and say come or he'll or whatever and praised it for coming to you, and at that time you can physically guide him and sit him by your right or left side if you are going to use the word heel or the very short phrase "to me", or just say come/c'me'ere... just think ahead to what you want your dog to do and figure out what word you want to use if not the everyday average obedience words.
I took in a stray Boxer that was so afraid of me I had to use K9 juvenal whine and cry on my back legs in the air Behavior to get her to come close and then I could not make a move or should be halfway down the block by the time I sat upright. Didn't know what she had been through didn't know whether I could trust her or not dot-dot-dot she had a habit of looking me in the eyes as if trying to assess whether she could trust me or not. And because fearful mistrusting dogs can be defensive and strike out and bite like a snake is unpredictable I assumed her to be just so. So we live together in the same house, checking each other out I only gave her attention when she did something I wanted her to do such as sit beside me or lay down beside my chair and I would say sit or to me or down. And it was the down at the side of my chair that I begin to teach her stay because I would get up and go and she would have followed me and then I turn around and go right back to my chair eventually she would get tired I'm going with me and she would opt to stay and simply watch me and then I would say the word and tell her good girl when I got back not right away but when I got back and gave her some Lovin and lots of attention and that was it she was the easiest dog ever because I did it that way she was only 4 to 6 months the vet said when I found her. She probably jumped her family's 4 foot fence - they can scale a ten foot with razor wire facing inward. I don't know if all could but Penny sure could! We were in the Philippines and my daddy was always saying I wonder if she would end up on somebody's dinner table. Apparently they couldn't catch her!
Not sure why Karen pulled a Karen on you. You are obviously a good owner and can train your dogs. My advice would be to train the Pit after exercising. Calm the body, calm the mind
This is called variable reward, basic for a dog trainer, reward every time to teach, get the to do the trick twice for one treat, do that a few times and then switch to random, or variable reward
@@kayceegreer4418 The same goes for northern breeds. Like Huskies, malamutes, samoyeds ext. All difficult high energy, independent, high prey driven dogs. Its not impossible, just more difficult. I am sure she is capable of training her dog.
@@norweldgp6250 We used to train dogs with high anxiety on a treadmill. Very low speed and incline for safety but it was an absolute game changer. Exercise always flushed the dog, which in turn helped it focus on the training instead of the anxiety.
Would like to see a tutorial of the left command. That is a very nice addition to have! Love your videos and thanks for continuing with the content during these times!
This dog absolutely ADORES you....i love how she looks at you, just waiting to interact with you!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
My dog ran up to an on leash dog in the woods today and she ignored my first 4 recalls. I know I have been too dependent on food training as I always have the treat pouch on me. This video is PERFECT timing, because I need to move away from a treat based reward.
THANKS FOR WATCHING, I HOPE THIS HELPS!
I'll start using these techniques as soon as she wakes up. We spent about 2 hours running through the woods so she'll nap for maybe 30 minutes. I also started training with her Rex specs today. Do you have any recommendations as far as how long each day I should keep them on her until she's 100% comfortable? After wearing them in the house for a few minutes, she played fetch for about a minute in the woods before taking them off.
Had an idiot owner have his dog run up on my old GS- are you that idiot lol? This owner of course tells me "Dont worry hes friendly" Im thinking, "Okay....but clearly he doesnt listen to you and you're irresponsible for having him off leash", then all the sudden the dog went to snap at my guy, and I'll tell ya- I came very close to giving the dog a boot to the face but managed to scoop mine up well having some choice words for the owner. If you truly care about yor dog, do not let your dog off the leash if you can't 100% gaurantee itll come back to you everytime.
I can tell my dog is on the way to being perfectly trained bc he engages with me well , when it comes to what we are already training. I still am working on engagement when we are outside with distractions though.
I like how you explain things very clearly. I am an experienced dog owner and my dog listens to me pretty well but there is always more to learn.
Okay.....This makes me reconsider my owner-dog relationship. Before watching this video, i didn't even realize i did the wrong thing. Since, in my human world, most people don't work without real pay (except for moms who r on duty 24/7) and i didn't realize it was not the case with my dog.
Well even people people don't get paid for every single task, they get paid at the end of the week or month or whatever. We'll happily do our jobs knowing that we'll be rewarded at some point in the future. Dogs are the same, perhaps even more so.
MUCH NEEDED video!! I felt so frustrated training my dog because she would go through the motions of the commands but I felt like she didn't really know what she was actually doing and just concentrating on the treats, so to her it's just "free" treats. Thank you :)
I’m glad you did this video! I’m trying to train my GSD, Riley, to be a service dog for me. I was working with loading and unloading in my SUV the other day. She loads beautifully, but charges out like a freight train, so waiting to exit was my focus for her. She’s kind of getting it, but I was feeling guilty because I didn’t bring treats with me. I fussed over her every time she waited, but I feel better after hearing you say treats aren’t always needed! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!
Thanks for watching Vikki!
Keep at it, Vikki. As Tom said, you won't always have treats. Riley will work for the love of you. Shepherds are great like that.
This makes perfect sense. I have only been training my pup for a short while but I am already seeing signs of her only willing to cooperate for food. I will try this.
love not only the learning from your videos but seeing the amazing relationship you have with Lakota. I might realistically never achieve the level of training you have, but the journey of learning through your videos is having a real impact on our relationship and my understanding his needs.
I just loved watching the dog look at his hand when ever he was waving it
Hi, I’m from Australia 🇦🇺. Just wanna say I really appreciate your videos. It has definitely helped me to understand my anxious dog so much better ☺️. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and understanding of dogs and training, I have applied it to my dog and can definitely see how beneficial it is for our relationship through establishing discipline and structure. 👍🏻
Great video. I’ve just started training my Dutch herder puppy, I was rewarding each command, but was seeing the issues that you mentioned manifest already, glad I’m only 3 days in to training! Will look forward to watching your other videos.
TOM YOU ARE AMAZING...IM GETTING A CANE CORSO IN 3 MONTHS AND WILL BE USING YOUR TECHNIQUES TO TRAIN HIM
Great video Tom. It's helpful that you talk through everything along with a demonstration of the correct way to train.
I never use food, the reward is my praise and positive attention. It takes a little longer sometimes but i never have to care about food.
I needed this. I got my 1st GSD back in Oct 2019 and she has done great with basic training. Unfortunately, as we were supposed to start obedience training COVID hit.
Thanks so much Tom! Been begging to see how you taught Lakota to do all her tricks and to be so engaged. I need to get my GSD 8 month pup to pay attention to me outside of the home. You are a true MASTER! Thank you!!!
HERE YA GO! GOOD LUCK, THANKS FOR WATCHING!
If you search Tom's playlists, there are videos of his early training with either Lakota or maybe it was Hauck...can't recall which. Either way it shows some great foundational work.
I've found that working with hand signals can be helpful. Dog HAS to be watching you for hand signals, while voice commands don't require a focus on you. Use the dogs name to get their attention, then the hand signals. Has helped me.
Thank you. I appreciate this video. I will use this for my 8 month old golden retriever mufasa later on today for our 2nd training session this afternoon. I appreciate what you do. Have a great day
THANKS VERY MUCH PORTIA!
Hey Tom awesome video today. I just added a shepherd pit bull mix to the family (4 1/2months old) and she has been very great on basic training. Your tips today are going to really help me with continuing to get her attention and to have more fun during training. Hope all is well
Lakota is so beautiful and smart! He's really done a great job with her training. Its incredible how she's so focused on him.
That was fantastic I always give my dog treats I wondered if it was a mistake I love training her so this is a great free lesson and to the person that gave a thumbs down what is wrong with you keep safe
I like one treat at the absolute end. I like this training.Thank you.
I’m training my 3 month old Airedale with his kibble.(Knock on wood) I’ve had great results with it.I can get sit,stay,lay down and hold positions.Only thing I’m having a hard time with is getting him to roll over.Great Video and information!!
She’s great! You have done a fantastic job with her.
Can you do this and show us with an untrained dog? So they really have to learn this?
There is a video or a series of videos of him doing training with Hawkin his other German Shepherd. There are a few more videos of him training other people’s dogs in the other videos. We’ve trained our giant schnauzer without issues after watching his videos. Look thorough his play list
Yes I need help! My one year old Doberman Rosie and I could use your expertise to better our communication!
This was my first video I watched from your channel. I love the content and education! Thanks for offering this to all of us dog owners, (new) for my family and me.
So pleased to see his video Not all situations have food treats readily available like groomer, pet sitter, car rides and so on. I don’t want my dog gaining weight on treats either. Most dogs want to please you, praise and touch are much more rewarding! Good job Tom!
Great info! I was worried about not having treats on me all the time, and the dog getting fat!
Thank God for trainers like you.
Dogs are GREAT trainers, and have this totally figured out!
I NEED THIS for my GSDs!
THANKS FOR WATCHING!

I can’t believe how good you are with dogs.
Tom, I don’t know if you will see comments on a video that is 2yo but I loved this video!!! I’ve been watching your videos for months now and you are by far one of my favorite trainers on TH-cam! I’m starting as an apprentice with a local trainer here in Charlotte, NC (Canine Scholars).Anyway, I just wanted to say that I love your videos! They’ve been so beneficial in training my own Miniature poodle and has really grown my desire to be a dog trainer myself! Keep up the great work and thanks for sharing all the great content! God Bless!
Yes, great topic!!
THANKS SO MUCH FOR WATCHING ANNE--MARIE!
It's called a "random reward schedule". There should not be any confusion if you have a solid marker.
People's training would reach a whole new level if they would stop using treats, and make the dog work for it's food. No work, no food, we'll try next time.
Wow never seen a dog before like Dakota. She’s so adorable I love to watch her with you Tom. Incredible xx
Her focus is amazing!
“Keep it spicy baby” 😂 love it

Great video Tom. I think playtime and being able to introduce advanced obedience, benefits both dog and owner and forges a stronger bond between you both. I love watching Lakota in your videos.
You have no idea how much these videos have helped me and my malinois mix Goose!
Love all your videos! Thoughts of doing a video for reactive dogs in a car?
Caesar Milan has one in his TH-cam channel
Completely raised my husky (as well as others dogs) with no treats. The only command I did have to use food was "catch it" with my husky. He would always close his eyes and turn from the toy as it arched toward him. Small pieces of turkey, not so intimidating, and highly motivated to catch it! Taught him 'mouth-eye' coordination. Switched off the meat once he learned to trust his eyes. Went back to praise and toy reward only. Best way to train in my opinion. Truly teaches, creates understanding, a strong bond, and great loyalty.
Aw hell yeah this video rocks!! Makes so much sense to me and it seems reasonable to accomplish IRL, and I get confused very easily! Thank you for being so palatable and easy to understand!
This is definitely great information every dog owner should know. Now I know what I am doing wrong with that treat.
interesting. I train in agility and we release when dog is showing forward focus rather than focus to handler....I'm not familiar with your training but this looks more like IPO focus or competition obedience training?
A
I am a 61 year old woman and have a 2 year old rot/pit.. I've had him since October. I play tug with him all the time and we both love it! It hasn't made him aggressive in the least! I love him so much.. he's just highly prey driven! 😮❤
Hi Tom I really love your videos. I just got a 9 week old German shepherd puppy and she is sure a handful. I believe I was becoming victim to always giving food as a reward im so glad I found this video.
Hey Tom, How do you teach the "left" command and get her so close?
matthew dahm a treat in your left hand at waist height and praise her n say left n reward with treat....
Also... remember to keep the commands simple. Such as "left- sit- down, or lay and so on. And use one word commands, clearly, so the dog understands. They don't actually "know" what the word means, they listen for the phonetics of the word. So keep that in mind when giving commands, so the commands don't rhyme, like "lay" and "stay". It saves from confusion. Most trainers use the "down" command to make the dog lay down instead of "lay" for that very reason.
One word commands, consistently and clearly so the dog understands and they should catch on quickly!
I also train my dog at the same time(or as close as I can!) Everyday. It gives them something to look forward to, and they usually get very excited when that time of day comes around if your training well, consistently, the dogs learning, and your both having fun. Make sure and catch that time out for your buddy. It doesn't take hours to work with a good dog. A half hour of good training is more than enough time, as long as your consistent. If you give them that time, they usually don't disappoint. It depends on the dog also, but most breeds like Shepards, collies, labs, water dogs, "working" breeds live/ love to train and learn!
*Carve, not catch.
Also do not wait that the dog will do it all the time when you are walking it. Do have your dog exercised before.
A marker/click doesn't tell the dog they're RIGHT, it communicates that they've accessed reinforcement. When you mark using a bridge that is conditioned to mean reinforcement, over and over again without reinforcement, you weaken the marker. You can use praise to keep the dog up, but when you use a conditioned bridge like "yes" or a click, you should follow with reinforcement always. Also, you start the video luring your dog with a ball yet advise against the same thing with food.
and when they have gotten access to the reinforcement they are right, that's why they get the reinforcement.
Upstate Canine Academy you say “good heel” “good sit” etc and repeat it a lot. Not only does the repeating weaken the cue, but it weakens your marker when you mark 100s of times and only reward every once in a while. Again, the marker is meant to clearly communicate to the dog they’ve accessed reinforcement, so if you don’t reinforce after a conditioned marker, you weaken it. And if your markers are not only inconsistent in their meaning, but you are not consistent with HOW you mark, then you’re just spewing word salad.
World salad. Hm. 😂
5 mins into video, love as always! Here's the simple thing I can give you as a like! Hope you and your dogs are good in this tough time!
Appreciate the thoroughness! Keep up the good work you two!
I could be standing with a fillet steak and mine will still ignore me and freak out at any other dog that appears! Nightmare!
Your dog sounds like it needs to be socialized. It takes a lot of practice and patience but it can be done. My poodle went from being so aggressive that she had to wear a muzzle her first year to training class. With practice she became so use to the other dogs at class she would go lay down with them when we were taking a break.
My puppy has already gotten to the point that no dog treat is enough so I'm trying to move out of treat training because it isn't working at all for her.
I wanna know how the Russians train them to not focus on them but on the surroundings scanning for threats. While still staying with the handler and moving with them like a third leg. That's some insane training skills.
Eddie Maxwell they use contact heeling so the dog doesn’t need to focus on the handler for movement. Reward will also need to be away from the handler.. maybe the decoy in a field or a tug a few yards away. More often then not dogs will understand contact heeling much easier then traditional heeling because it is a black and white movement you’re either touching me or you’re not. Dogs understand that far easier then walk next to me but not that far in front but not that far behind not crabbing etc etc.. try it out also the between the legs healing is a great way to start..at least that’s what I have found
Forget to switch accounts?
Thank you!! My GSD is crazy smart but highly food motivated! This was very helpful
Yes! Yes!Yes! 1000% I’m big on Increments. Cause the puppies it works well but even with my pups at 12 - 16 weeks we start weening off. Best video on TH-cam for training! PERIOD!
All these YT training videos are confusing and exhausting! I can’t carry treats on me at all time plus, I feel it could be confusing the the Dog. 1 week ago, we rescued a Walker Coonhound that was found wild, in the woods. She is great, good manners, but She’s a hound. Trying to find training help for voice commands/obedience without all these treat nonsense. Thank you for your video.
If you rescued a dog from the woods, its not WILD...hahaha. If it has good manners....its been in a home and trained a bit. Anyway....every dog is different but if you "cant carry treats all the time"....you probably should NOT have a coonhound or any dog. Some dogs need treats...it helps "shape" the dog and also build trust/respect. You dont need a trainer, its not rocket science. Rewards, consistency, accountability, corrections as needed once you teach the dog the command...start inside and on a leash to assist the dog to proper position....hounds talk.....try to correct that behavior but thats what they do...it needs a job...also what they were bred to do....haha.
Its not nonsense. Listen to what is being taught here. Behavior -> Reward. Its simple and gets the job done and this video helps you shape how you train the dog. Saying its nonsense will have you end up like those owners that he described at the start-those that only get the desired behavior in exchange for food every single time. If you're not willing to learn, dont have a dog. They need that structure to learn
When you dog doesn’t love toys, only treats, what then...? 😅
You might be giving treats too often. Stop using treats to praise for a while, let your dog forget they even exist. Their focus should then wander elsewhere, where you should be able to fill that void with a toy and build toy drive in your dog. Look up videos on how to build drive (or toy drive) in your dog, after getting rid of food treats for a while, you should be able to work with toys a lot more.
Nancy Driessen lol. I have a female German shepherd four month old that is lazy, unmotivated and pretty. She has already learned several things and food has been the only way. I already removed food when she sits and when she goes to place. In 2 weeks. The trick in my opinion is not to train without food but to remove it as they learn. 😊
Chartist sounds like my ex
when your shiba inu loves NOTHING, NOTHING I SAY... well... you use leash-nagging to crush them into choosing a sort of minimal... co-operation.? I'm fine with it. It works for us.
Use light leash pressure.Do not feed treats 24/7 and do not leave the dogs toys out 24/7.Pick one toy and make them forgot about it.Then the toy will be new and exciting same with treats.
I'm 18 years old and my baby is a little over a year, now I can see that I made so many mistakes, he has behaviors that could have been avoided but weren't because of me, I'm responsible for him, now that I will be leaving to college soon he needs to be in his best because I can't take him with me, so thank so much, you talked of almost everything and needed
Wow! THANKYOU. I noticed with all these dog training videos, they are super saturated with treats. We have been trying to train our golden retriever that is nearing 1 years old, which has been a challenge. Structure is important and I'm thankful my intuition was right after watching this video!
I've taught my girl how two tricks in sign language....she'll do both commands every time I signal
Nicholle Akkerman Hand signals are much easier for the dog to understand. Language is a foreign concept to animals.
Yeah! You can do both, a cue, with language and hand signals! Hand signals is what you should be using to!!
I have mine trained with both sound and signal as well. One of the best things I ever did. I dont even have to talk to him.
That’s epic
@Austin Lee Agreed. Police dogs are a good example ie. when they're focused on their target instead of the handler. Verbal is the only means then.
Wait so you can say “yes” and not follow up with a reward? So does that mean some “yes’s” there is a reward and some there isn’t?
The yes marks the correct behavior..... That's #1....you gotta say in within 1 second of the behaviour to they know what they did right. Then reward after when you want.
Saying yes is showing your dog that you approve. After a while of proper training, most dogs will seek for that approval. Over time that approval becomes the reward instead of the treat. This is harder for dogs like Huskies because they don't care about approval as much, but with repetition it should still be able to be done.
The dog just needs to know the moment in time where they did the behavior you were asking correctly. That’s what a verbal marker is. You’re marking the behavior with a sound instead of a piece of food. BUT!!!, you have to take the time to teach the verbal markers as well. Hope this helped.
@@vcommodore9161 not how marker word works at all
Love this Vid Tom. Great techniques and I just love the way that gorgeous dog cant take her eyes off you. I have much to practice. One of the best pieces of advice for me was 'I am the gatekeeper," totally understand that now.
Do you have a video on how you teach "left"?? We are new to your channel, and are LOVING it. Huge difference already in our 10 month old Aussiedoodle. Keep 'em comin!

5 ads in 5 minutes. You’re training me to watch a different contributor.
so appreciative of information for kai- have our work cut out for us he does not trust me yet,had him three weeks was spoilt prior and not much structure. i am learning to become more calm and have to overcome introductions to other dogs from previous bad experiences prior and my lack of knowledge, i do not blame the dog only my misconceptions. keep telling myself stress equals success.
I don't think Stress equals Success.... Calm, patience, consistency & Love.... Watch a variety of Tom's videos and see what owners are having issues with (and if any are similar to yours, all the better to watch and learn from). Tom uses a variety of tools like different collars n leashes to help communicate better etc. You are on the right path looking for info to help your new doggo. Best wishes to you both!
This video was awesome! What a cool interaction between you two.❤
It's good to see a new trainer Tom, I'm going to IMU tomorrow 👍
She's beautiful. We used to train basics like sit, lay, paw, come, with praise only. It still works. Things tgay are harder to get their attention then food helps.
It helps so much to see how you work it through!! Thanks Tom!
Honestly, this is really smart lol
I'm not a professional or anything but I do love training my dogs. I've been without one for a few years so im studying up on a lot of trainings and this is amazing.
Thank you for offering these videos. I have a gsd and a husky mix that I want to be more obedient. I rescued them and have tried several different things and yours seem to be working the best!
I agree, the food has to be phased out and been given occasionally for motivation but in learning fase you need to feed them.
4:50 makes such excellent sense. Our dog should respond and act simply because we gave the command, not on the promise of food. Appropriate use of food reward philosophy.
That was very well explained Tom and very helpful. Merci. Rej
