Thank you for being so kind to the client who admitted he had anxiety. I'm sure it took a lot for him to get up there. Lets you know how much he loves his dog if he's putting. himself out there to make changes.
The closing words from the lady at the end were incredibly powerful. There's so much varied opinion on training methods but she hit the nail on the head with needing to do what works for you and most importantly the dog. So much respect for that change of opinion and view point.
Hell yes. I hate correcting my dog every time he lunges at other dogs because he's too excited to meet them. But we'll both get in trouble if I let him do it. They need to be told what is appropriate and what isn't.
Kudos for the way you worked with that gentleman and the Shepard, your reassurance seemed to make such a difference to his confidence and ability to train his dog. Enjoyed the production of this video, they are so enjoyable to watch, love the story they tell.
Tom, I had goosebumps listening at the end to those who for years tried to help their dogs with positive only training. This video will help thousands of people all over the world who are struggling with their dogs. Way to use your platform for good 👏👏👏👏
I often watch his videos but enjoy Tom's more. Tom is more about getting the owner to do it right. After all, the owner is probably what caused the problem in the first place. I know it was my tightening the leash every time we passed another dog that caused our reactivity. Once I "loose leashed" our GSD, no more problems. Go figure!
I loved the woman who commented at the end about medicating her dog into a puddle vs saying "that is not acceptable" and have a dog who was getting to live life. I wish parents would watch this.
I so strongly sympathize with the owner of the business shepherd, ours is the exact same way. I've come to realize how easy it is to overcomplicate training too. This is such a great show of how simple it can be if done well and consistently.
I was the same, but UCA and Stonie helped me to change a lot, i can really give all the praise i can to them and would still not even come close to what i learned from them for free! You can spend thousands on a trainer and see 0 results or you can try it the UCA/Stonie way and get good results yourself if you just take your time, learn from them and from the doggo you want to train. I made so many mistakes with mine, it would be too long, basically i wasnt letting her be a dog and she had a bad attitude, but after i started applying stuff i learned from watching this and Stonies channels, life got way better really fast thanks to them.
Omg!! Hope the UK is treating you well! It's not that common to see balanced trainers in the uk (From my experience). A lot of people in this country especially hate your methods, but i'm so glad to see u here :) Keep changing the game bro!
Even whilst being reactive, these dog participants appeared more "polite" than the usual cases we see on this channel. LoL ! (It's lovely and nothing against any dog, owner, country!) Luna was ready and waiting for her owner to connect with a trainer and methods that matched them. It was obvious Luna kept looking for direction from her owner. That pair will be able to accomplish whatever they wish if they maintain and build on Luna's laser sharp focus. All of the participants made great progress; the owners were so open and willing to try different things. Fantastic to see how Tom always strengthens the dog /owner bond while problem solving. The future looks great for them all (including the cheeky tug thief! 😂) As Tom always says, the dog/owner relationship is the foundation and once it's solid, you just build from there! Thank you!
What made sense from videos today for me... When there's tension on the leash, there's friction between dog and handler. When there's no pressure, they're in tune, which is what both actually desire. Thanks!
the lady at 25:00 needs a huge 👏for challenging her preconceived beliefs. E-collar literally changed her and dogs life. Yet they're now going to ban them in the UK
Your videos are always so informative and easy to understand. Thanks! However, I want to caution anyone who has a reactive dog to think twice before using a head halter (Gentle Leader or Halti) People liken a head collar to a halter on a horse. While it has the same effect, a horse has a much thicker neck and the chance for cervical damage is close to zero. When my large breed dog was 7 months old , I took the advice of a trainer and switched from a flat collar to a Gentle Leader. One day while on a walk he saw another dog and lunged forward. His body came to an abrupt stop and his head was yanked around due to the collar over his nose. He's been getting chiropractic adjustments for over 9 years and now has intervertebral disc disease in his neck. Please be careful with this training aid.
How did I miss this?????? I live in London! Thank you for helping some of my fellow Londoners. I was messed around with by terrible trainers for years with my dogs, at the cost of tens of thousands. In the end I took the time (between dogs) to go and learn different techniques myself. When I got my next dog (I'm a large breed, working dog lover) I was more than capable to cope with the different things that came up. Some things I needed a bit of advice on, but I did most things myself, built a wonderful relationship with my dog, and ended up with a dog that took part in search and rescue missions in the UK. He passed away earlier this year, but I know when I decide it's time, I will be ready and if I'm not there are people (few and far between) who can offer another perspective. I'd certainly come to any UK based seminar's you do in the future.
@@tomdavisofficial It's the little things that you don't have time to cover in these videos I would have found fascinating. Anyway, thank you for coming to the UK and I'll be there next time!
The lady at the end said it perfectly! If you let dog has no problems and does well with purely positive, the good for you. If not, there’s nothing wrong with correcting behavior! Super good video to watch!
Great idea to let the humans feel the "shock" collar. People have the wrong idea about it. For the first time in my life I do not have a dog. My lab passed a month ago. Why am I bothering to watch dog training? I think this is one of the best dog trainers that I ever watched. I can think of 2 trainers that have similar styles. I started with the other trainer like this and I think he saved my life and my dogs. Proper training has almost immediate improvement.
@@rainaquelle365 : When I adopted her, she had been both neglected and abused by her former owners. They also obviously didn't know anything about dog training. Her behaviors came with her; that is, she had started chasing cars with them. When I saw the vibrating collar on UCA, I knew it would have saved her life, because it would have given me a tool to break her attention on the cars and get her to listen to me.
It made my heart sing to see how the connection between the owners and the dogs changed to one of communication and understanding by both 2&4 legged participants. They all went in looking like Eyore (Christopher robin) and the "here we go again" with no hope. As they each learned, the spark of possibility of a new and better reality started to kick in. Then, the owners each describing the joy of being able to actually go out and have Fun with their dogs, without the fear/anxiety, is priceless. May this bring about change so more people can enjoy their dogs in a safe and fun way. Great episode. Peace from New England, 🇺🇸
TD International was an amazing seminar and I’m so happy that me and Big D managed to be there! As a handler I learnt more than I could have imagined and took Tom’s advice about ‘taking in the moment’….and the moments were massive for me and Big D 🇬🇧 🐾
Brilliant to hear and these people change their perspectives on E Collars etc. Purely positive doesn't work for the more strong willed dogs. Thanks Tom. Looked like great fun and important information given. Well done : ) Loved this very much.
I just love how this guy is so sincere with the owners. He patiently teaches them. It’s more a training for the dog owners than the dog. Which is beautiful ppl taking theirselves to be trained on how to tend a dog. This is a beautiful thing. I absolutely love the way the teacher teaches with kindness. Great job dog owners you all are beautiful brave people. Unlike me. But working on it :)
also, really love the part where you put the e-collar on the people to have them test the levels- i always get a lot of slack for using an e-collar because people think of it as a torture device for dogs when in reality it’s usually used at such a low vibrate that humans can barely feel it!
Great to see your trip to UK Tom. 😍 I really hope that more people get updated about the fantastic tools like e-collars and prongs. It’s banned in so many countries here in Europe and I think we must do something now against those activists who wants it banned all over the world.
This was 1 of your most powerful episodes yet. The love these owners showed for their dogs and the way you guided them forward while giving them so much compassion... wow Tom 💖🙏💖
Incredible Tom. I especially loved the dog owner at the end talking about the realistic application of prong collars, and how people are too emotionally wrapped up to free their dogs from constant stress. It's a huge issue in the training industry. You all are making waves to change that! Keep it up, much love 💕
The lady at the end summarizes what Tom and his team have given me and my dog. I got my first dog at a time where I couldn’t afford the training I needed for my dog’s reactivity. My dog went from every person, noise and dog being like a bomb going off-to now…my dog goes with me so many places I never felt we could go. I am thankful for Tom and his team daily. I may not have my best friend without them. I wish others can see for reactive dogs, humane and direct communication like this is life-changing.
Great video i wish you were near me my dog just does not like other dogs and most people he’s the dog on the block people just cant stand but when hes with me hes a love my world
Great to see a variety of dogs and owners that are open minded to do what is best for their dogs. Engagement is so important and helps your dog to not react to people and dogs because it's focused on you. Proper leash correction can be difficult to learn. I teach my clients "loose, pop, loose", in how to use the leash. I also have them verbalize it as they do it. Tally ho!
Tom this is your best episode yet. Bravo. It frustrates me to hear people calling for a ban on e-collar in Singapore and I only hope with videos like that will help change minds.
man your videographer has been KILLING it with the content lately!!! the footage is so clean & the training tips are always incredible! so glad to see you branching off into new opportunities!
Phenomenal video. I love how the woman wrapped up the video with those comments. So true. So many people see a prong or an ecollar on a dog and freak out and scream abu$e. When these tools are used fairly, as simply communication devices, it opens up life for so many dogs who now have more freedoms to enjoy life as a dog. It's a beautiful thing to watch! Great work, I hope you hit 1M!
This is one of the best videos that I've had the privilege to watch on your channel Tom. Well done in showing and explaining the benefits of an E-collar and Prong collar to show owners how to have a dog that always looks to them for direction and to check in to make sure that they are behaving the way the owners want them to. The lady at the end truly understands how to have a dog that loves life and their owner.
That's really what it all comes down to; quality of life for both the dog & owner. If these minor adjustments; slip lead, prong/pinch & e-collar can suddenly remove a chaotic stressful mindset from the dog, then it's a win win all the way around for both the pet & owner! Right 👍 😎👍 ???
So great seeing the freedom that the correct tools FOR THE INDIVIDUAL DOG bring to both dog and owner! This is life changing for them, and you can tell that right from the beginning. I love watching Tom work.
I get emotional watching your videos at times. Thank you for helping people so that we’re strong and wise enough to help our dogs, in language they understand.
I think he helped the guys anxiety as much as the dogs as well. U can tell he got just as comfortable as the dog did as the dog got better he got better also! Really cool!
Great video Tom. Balanced training saves lives of many dogs. I love the testimonials. Thank you for showing the correct way to use tools like the prong or e-collar
I'm watching Tom's videos for awhile now. And its so wonderful to see his grow and improve his work. Really inspiring, and telling about how to love what you do, made your life of it while being a pro. Such a great path! 🌹
I can totally relate to what the GSP owner says at the end. In the UK, if you want to give your dog a much better life by using an ecollar, you're on your own. Without Tom Davis I wouldn't have had a clue how ignorant I was about prongs and ecollars.
I like how you always try to be gentle with the owners. It's visible they are trying really hard and you showing appreciation for it is awesome, also to see more and more people giving a chance to your training methods all over the world makes me happy. Hope to see your channel growing much more. Love from Brazil 💗
Yes working with human ego is Tom's biggest skill in my mind. Because if he doesn't make those connections with the owner...the dog will pay ultimately. He's a master at reading what approach to take with each owner. He deals with allllllll types, so he's adapting how he makes that connection. Brilliant
I just found you on TH-cam and am very impressed with your training style and customized approach. I have two dog reactive pitbulls that are a work in progress. It's nice to see your work with reactive dogs!
This may just save us. We watch almost every video you put out and I've studied them over and over slowly building my confidence to be the handler my dog needs.
My GSD just had puppies and of course I am keeping one. Your show helps so much with knowing what to watch for with the mama long before she blessed me with 6 beautiful puppies! Helps knowing more now than when she was a pup 🐶 ❤
Love your work man. You're one of the few trainers who follow balanced. People think it's only punishment based, it's not, it's,as the name implies,balanced, because it brings the best of both worlds.
I really enjoyed the format of this video. Seeing three different dogs and their owners working on their own and finally all together. It's wonderful to see training tools used correctly and effectively. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with the rest of the world.
This made me cry especially last lady my GSD was a reactive mess because of my lack of knowledge but watching your videos and play learning she is now only on leash while we are walking the street she is so confident and obedience but has kept her lovely personality would love to end my journey with a e.collar but live in Cyprus bought one two years ago but it is banned here so it is still in Scotland I want it for safety glad you got a great welcome from the U.K. Well done.
IDK if you'll ever see these words Tom... watching this video again I've had a realization. You worked with animal control and likely saw extreme suffering. It seems like your mission is to teach people how to handle their dogs 🐕 so there are less that will be neglected, abused or abandoned. You're taking action with a core solution, not just addressing the aftermath of a problem. It's a deeply beautiful thing to me. You deserve all the success coming to you. Thank you for making this world a better place 💕
I love the way you break everything down and as a person who suffers anxiety attacks I think it was really awesone the way you spoke to and helped that man with the little shepard mix. I found your channel myself while begining to owner train my ptsd & mobility assistance dog 2 yrs ago and continue to appreciate your content. Thank you for doing what you do the way you do it.
Your videos and how to use a prong collar has saved me and my dog from terrible walks and reactivity to a calm dog and much less anxiety for both of us!
After watching this video I have more respect to you for working with people than dogs 😂 The way you approach that guys instead of telling him this dogs is not for you it's the biggest lesson for a lot people, in dogs community.
I have a reactive ship tzu mix, and after watching your videos she has showed so much progress. I’m so glad I found your videos they saved my relationship with her!
Thankyou so much I have a GSD and he a a trainer and she was afraid of him and just told me to stick him in the corner and we could watch but just watching your videos has made everything better
The head halter lady did great. My dog was so obsessed with feeling leash pressure that she pulled even with the head halter. Prong collar fixed it because she "feels" it without leash pressure, so real pressure becomes a signal instead of her comfort zone.
I can't like this enough. I literally cried watching this transformation. So proud of you Tom. And so happy for theses dogs and their owners. I learn so dang much. Thank you!
Where would we be without you! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge so freely. My confidence with my scared, reactive, rescue Amstaff has increased 10 fold because of your videos. Which in turn helps him to improve. Sadly, it is illegal in New Zealand to use prong collars so we are limited to the slip lead down here 🙄
This makes so happy ! The reviews from the parents after made it so worth it all to see how these families will go on totally different and relaxed. You also taught the one gentleman some great handling confidence that I think will forever be a big step for his confidence and anxiety. Even as a trainer I would feel so so blank minded with anxiety and stress around you guys and how much amazing knowledge you have. We all have something to learn !
Tom thank you so much for coming to the UK and instilling some more of your balanced training knowledge and changing these dogs and their owners lives! It's so difficult to find over here. Following your principals for a couple months now with my GSD pup and I am so proud of how our relationship and understanding of each other has strengthened. He was dog reactive - not any more! I love training, I can't wait to see where it takes us and that was all thanks to you!
Great job Tom!! I frequent your videos as your training for reactive dogs is quite literally bar-none. These owners are blessed to work with you. Keep it up 👍🏻
I've said it before and I'll say it again (I'm the lady that only has a cat from NS btw) I love your videos and this one proves yet again that you are doing this FOR the dogs! If I was ever able to get a dog I would definitely be following your teachings 💜 You are awesome Sir!
Awesome training, I haven’t seen that muzzle/leash lead in action during a training and it seems like a much more comfortable option for a dog rather than being muzzled. Nothing against muzzles just saying that leash looked more comfortable for the dog! Great video!
I was so excited to see the German Shepherd behave so well around other dogs and humans, job well done as always. I could tell everyone was helped with the training, I would hope this was seen in many countries it would help so many dogs.❤️❤️❤️❤️🐾🐾
That's the key: knowing and understanding the use of the remote e-collar as a communication tool instead of how the people with any kind of idea sees it; as a punishment apparatus. Great job Tom...Bengie from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷
Thank you for being so kind to the client who admitted he had anxiety. I'm sure it took a lot for him to get up there. Lets you know how much he loves his dog if he's putting. himself out there to make changes.
Totally agree, Tom doesn't just read dogs, he reads people too.
Yes! First thing I noted!!! I know what that's like to suddenly feel anxious and the mind just stops working. Tom is so kind!
@@jenniferviolette317 i swear i thought something is wrong with me cause that happens a lot. And then when im relaxed everything comes to mind
The closing words from the lady at the end were incredibly powerful. There's so much varied opinion on training methods but she hit the nail on the head with needing to do what works for you and most importantly the dog. So much respect for that change of opinion and view point.
I felt the same, Ben!
Agree. Made me tear up! Haha
Totally 💖💖
Hell yes. I hate correcting my dog every time he lunges at other dogs because he's too excited to meet them. But we'll both get in trouble if I let him do it. They need to be told what is appropriate and what isn't.
Love,patience, consistency and leadership
This is the most British set up ever! Yorkshire tea, polite clients and a village hall/ gentleman's club. Feeling patriotic right now. 🇬🇧🇬🇧

The freedom and confidence you give to handlers and their dogs is invaluable. Awesome video!

Tom Davis.. BEST HUMAN TRAINER EVER!!! your videos make me happy to be a dog person Tom! Thank you 🍻
awe, thank you so much!
Tom this is your best episode yet. Bravo. It frustrates me to hear people calling for a ban on e-collar in Singapore and I only hope with videos like that will help change minds.
man your videographer has been KILLING it with the content lately!!! the footage is so clean & the training tips are always incredible! so glad to see you branching off into new opportunities!
❤️❤️🔥
Phenomenal video. I love how the woman wrapped up the video with those comments. So true. So many people see a prong or an ecollar on a dog and freak out and scream abu$e. When these tools are used fairly, as simply communication devices, it opens up life for so many dogs who now have more freedoms to enjoy life as a dog. It's a beautiful thing to watch! Great work, I hope you hit 1M!
This is one of the best videos that I've had the privilege to watch on your channel Tom. Well done in showing and explaining the benefits of an E-collar and Prong collar to show owners how to have a dog that always looks to them for direction and to check in to make sure that they are behaving the way the owners want them to. The lady at the end truly understands how to have a dog that loves life and their owner.
Thanks so much
That's really what it all comes down to; quality of life for both the dog & owner. If these minor adjustments; slip lead, prong/pinch & e-collar can suddenly remove a chaotic stressful mindset from the dog, then it's a win win all the way around for both the pet & owner! Right 👍 😎👍 ???
London is lucky to have you in the seminar w/c i ‘m sure helped them a lot.👍👍
So great seeing the freedom that the correct tools FOR THE INDIVIDUAL DOG bring to both dog and owner!
This is life changing for them, and you can tell that right from the beginning. I love watching Tom work.
Am always blessed by being here.Thank Tom
I get emotional watching your videos at times. Thank you for helping people so that we’re strong and wise enough to help our dogs, in language they understand.
I think he helped the guys anxiety as much as the dogs as well. U can tell he got just as comfortable as the dog did as the dog got better he got better also! Really cool!
Great video Tom. Balanced training saves lives of many dogs. I love the testimonials. Thank you for showing the correct way to use tools like the prong or e-collar
I'm watching Tom's videos for awhile now. And its so wonderful to see his grow and improve his work. Really inspiring, and telling about how to love what you do, made your life of it while being a pro. Such a great path! 🌹
THANKS SOO much for the feedback! It gives me gas to keep going! ❤️❤️
@@tomdavisofficial and you go! ❤️
I can totally relate to what the GSP owner says at the end. In the UK, if you want to give your dog a much better life by using an ecollar, you're on your own. Without Tom Davis I wouldn't have had a clue how ignorant I was about prongs and ecollars.
So happy for you! :)
That german shepherd cross pup is like my female GSD. This is the most detailed reactive video with several pups I have seen. I learned something new!
I like how you always try to be gentle with the owners. It's visible they are trying really hard and you showing appreciation for it is awesome, also to see more and more people giving a chance to your training methods all over the world makes me happy.
Hope to see your channel growing much more.
Love from Brazil 💗
Thanks, Sara!
Yes working with human ego is Tom's biggest skill in my mind. Because if he doesn't make those connections with the owner...the dog will pay ultimately. He's a master at reading what approach to take with each owner. He deals with allllllll types, so he's adapting how he makes that connection. Brilliant
@@MsGoddess4u yes, I totally agree!
Luna made leaps and bounds of progress during the seminar as did her owner! It was amazing to watch
I just found you on TH-cam and am very impressed with your training style and customized approach. I have two dog reactive pitbulls that are a work in progress. It's nice to see your work with reactive dogs!
This may just save us. We watch almost every video you put out and I've studied them over and over slowly building my confidence to be the handler my dog needs.
Great work in London Tom, some happy people and dogs there!
Great work, we need more trainers like this in the UK
Thanks for shedding light on the correct use of these tools!
Happy to! Thanks for watching!!
My GSD just had puppies and of course I am keeping one. Your show helps so much with knowing what to watch for with the mama long before she blessed me with 6 beautiful puppies! Helps knowing more now than when she was a pup 🐶 ❤
Thanks so much for watching
Love your work man. You're one of the few trainers who follow balanced. People think it's only punishment based, it's not, it's,as the name implies,balanced, because it brings the best of both worlds.
Well thank you very much.
I like it, how you work with dogs and their owners. Always a better life for the dogs. I love it. 🙏🥰🙋🏻♀️
What a great video showing how a balanced approach works , I have a Romanian rescue , so watching the improvement was brilliant, for the dog too
Hope this helps! :)!
@@tomdavisofficial to be fair I’ve watched lot’s of your videos and learn’t so much so thanks , my rescue is pretty good and way better thanks to you
I really enjoyed the format of this video. Seeing three different dogs and their owners working on their own and finally all together. It's wonderful to see training tools used correctly and effectively. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with the rest of the world.
This made me cry especially last lady my GSD was a reactive mess because of my lack of knowledge but watching your videos and play learning she is now only on leash while we are walking the street she is so confident and obedience but has kept her lovely personality would love to end my journey with a e.collar but live in Cyprus bought one two years ago but it is banned here so it is still in Scotland I want it for safety glad you got a great welcome from the U.K. Well done.
Thank yoiu!
Thankful for a person like you that wants to help people all around the world.🙌🏼
Well...that was just the best video ever. Thank you!
IDK if you'll ever see these words Tom... watching this video again I've had a realization. You worked with animal control and likely saw extreme suffering. It seems like your mission is to teach people how to handle their dogs 🐕 so there are less that will be neglected, abused or abandoned. You're taking action with a core solution, not just addressing the aftermath of a problem. It's a deeply beautiful thing to me. You deserve all the success coming to you. Thank you for making this world a better place 💕
I love the way you break everything down and as a person who suffers anxiety attacks I think it was really awesone the way you spoke to and helped that man with the little shepard mix. I found your channel myself while begining to owner train my ptsd & mobility assistance dog 2 yrs ago and continue to appreciate your content. Thank you for doing what you do the way you do it.
Your videos and how to use a prong collar has saved me and my dog from terrible walks and reactivity to a calm dog and much less anxiety for both of us!
So happy to hear!
So cool to see you travel to other places to teach people how to have a better relationship and control with their dogs can't wait for the next vid.
Grateful
Never give up!
There are no bad dogs
Good to see you in action Tom
Legend
Really loved the way you helped the nervous man feel comfortable. You are very attuned and very compassionate. Love your work Tom!
I have been watching him for years and loved the difference in every dog and owner he comes in contact with. He is amazing!
After watching this video I have more respect to you for working with people than dogs 😂 The way you approach that guys instead of telling him this dogs is not for you it's the biggest lesson for a lot people, in dogs community.
I have a reactive ship tzu mix, and after watching your videos she has showed so much progress. I’m so glad I found your videos they saved my relationship with her!
Thankyou so much I have a GSD and he a a trainer and she was afraid of him and just told me to stick him in the corner and we could watch but just watching your videos has made everything better
The head halter lady did great. My dog was so obsessed with feeling leash pressure that she pulled even with the head halter. Prong collar fixed it because she "feels" it without leash pressure, so real pressure becomes a signal instead of her comfort zone.
I can't like this enough. I literally cried watching this transformation. So proud of you Tom. And so happy for theses dogs and their owners. I learn so dang much. Thank you!
Where would we be without you! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge so freely. My confidence with my scared, reactive, rescue Amstaff has increased 10 fold because of your videos. Which in turn helps him to improve. Sadly, it is illegal in New Zealand to use prong collars so we are limited to the slip lead down here 🙄
Absolutely one of your best videos to date! I continue to learn useful techniques for use with my young dog. 🙏
Thanks so much!
This makes so happy ! The reviews from the parents after made it so worth it all to see how these families will go on totally different and relaxed. You also taught the one gentleman some great handling confidence that I think will forever be a big step for his confidence and anxiety. Even as a trainer I would feel so so blank minded with anxiety and stress around you guys and how much amazing knowledge you have. We all have something to learn !
It good work ur doing, I hope my dog turns out as great as I see the dogs you trained. learning lots of stuff to help my dog grow.
Happy forr you!
Tom thank you so much for coming to the UK and instilling some more of your balanced training knowledge and changing these dogs and their owners lives! It's so difficult to find over here. Following your principals for a couple months now with my GSD pup and I am so proud of how our relationship and understanding of each other has strengthened. He was dog reactive - not any more! I love training, I can't wait to see where it takes us and that was all thanks to you!
Thanks so much for the support!
Great job Tom!! I frequent your videos as your training for reactive dogs is quite literally bar-none. These owners are blessed to work with you. Keep it up 👍🏻
awe, thanks so much!
I've said it before and I'll say it again (I'm the lady that only has a cat from NS btw) I love your videos and this one proves yet again that you are doing this FOR the dogs! If I was ever able to get a dog I would definitely be following your teachings 💜 You are awesome Sir!
❤️
Yes man. The uk really needed this
It was epic!
Awesome training, I haven’t seen that muzzle/leash lead in action during a training and it seems like a much more comfortable option for a dog rather than being muzzled. Nothing against muzzles just saying that leash looked more comfortable for the dog! Great video!
I was so excited to see the German Shepherd behave so well around other dogs and humans, job well done as always. I could tell everyone was helped with the training, I would hope this was seen in many countries it would help so many dogs.❤️❤️❤️❤️🐾🐾
Yes!
I had to do a second take there, I noticed Will sitting in on the class. That is awesome!
This so amazing it honestly warms my heart to see these very stressed dogs at the start totally transformed to more stable calm relaxed dogs
Your most powerful video yet! You made such a difference for those people💜
This is one of my favorite videos, I loved the different perspectives of the owners.
That's the key: knowing and understanding the use of the remote e-collar as a communication tool instead of how the people with any kind of idea sees it; as a punishment apparatus. Great job Tom...Bengie from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷
Great to see your work here in the UK
Thank you for your help with our dogs
