Today a 3year old of the family opened the front door and our reactive, dominant dog didn’t fly out while the door was just wide open. How amazing is that?! A neighbor passed by the house and he even growled at her (which is bad, I know) but he STILL didn’t leave the house. (Which he did multiple times a year ago btw and we had to chase him up and down the street for some minutes). Crazy, I never thought this would be possible someday. Thanks to your method!
That release before the leash “pop” is key for my understanding. You teach the dog his job is to know where you are and where you’re going at all times.
For anyone reading this: I know that dog training can be difficult sometimes, but you're doing great. Keep up the good work, and your dog (and your own sanity) will thank you for it! ❤️
You can see that Cooper isn't afraid at all. He is calm and at attention, following the trainers cues. This channel is gonna be so helpful training my dad's dogs
This video has changed my dogs life! I was so confused about leash walking. I tried positive reinforcement and my dog would just take the treat and dash back to what she wanted. But with this method she is paying attention to my movement and I reward her when she is doing super good. Thank you so much for posting a full detailed video!!
That sounds like you did it wrong. Positive reinforcement doesn't mean to out a treat in the dogs mouth. It is a whole concept that starts already inside the house. Petting and praising is often enough. So if your dog just ran back to where ever it wanted to go it didn't understand what you want from him in the first place. 😅
OMG!!!!! You are a genius!!! 5 years using the prong...even with training classes, he would even pull with the prong collar...I watched this and other of your videos.. I braved up, just put the leash on the flat collar and BOOM it worked!!! I walked him all the way to the end of the block, with a loose leash and no treats!!! This is a freaking miracle!!!
Prong is not to be used with pulling, it used to give loose leash corrections. You have been using it wrong.. I use harness and corrections work with it also, no need for prong or ecollar or any other collar. Harness is great.
Harness is designed to hell dogs pull. Big misconception regarding these things. You attach a harness to a dog to a sled as it helps them anchor and distribute the weight evenly while they pull. Walking your dog you should only use a collar and lead, no prong as they're just as evil as shock collars. Talking from four years experience walking a Husky on a collar and lead. Harnesses are absolutely useless in my opinion. Only good thing I use them for is to be able to secure dog in the car during transport.
@@youtubeblogger3088 My dog doesnt pull with harness and if he does react the weight distributes evenly and doesnt damage his throat. I dont see use for collar.
I like Caesar and Dog Daddy. But your training is by far the only one I think any regular person can reliably replicate. Caesar and DD seem to have an almost instinctual understanding that I can't duplicate aside from the shallow surface facade. But your methods and explanations are simple, straightforward, and [more] repeatable. And for that, I sincerely thank you.
I love his show and thisjust summarizes and lays out all of the basic methods he uses on the show. What i love about this guide th-cam.com/users/postUgkxKkYeOoCV_w2vPX0CSyVWkhew2c4FYk0d is that you don' need to read the whole book cover to cover ... You can skip to the chapter (lesson) you want to read about. The book is arranged almost as a problem-solving guide ... Here is the problem and here is what you need to know/do to correct it. This man knows his stuff ... But more importantly knows how to teach people how they can work with their pups themselves!
Wow now 329K subscribers! Joel you are such a great teacher!!! All of the details, the attitude coaching, showing all of Cooper's corrections, too! 🐾❤️ It's great to rewatch these for refreshers!
Your training has made the world of difference for our family and the safety of our dog! We have a 1-year-old puppy that has needed the structure that you talk about in this video and it has made everybody difference for our family❤❤❤
This video and the other leash pulling videos Beckman has posted seriously worked so well! I just started fostering to adopt a dog and I've watch so many training videos online and these tips worked instantly today! It honestly did help with some of the other basic commands since the dog wasn't paying attention to me. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge 🙌
You are one of the very few people that I send my clients to to show good examples and explanations! I train very similar if not a exactly how are you do and I absolutely love helping dogs and I hope I can expand one day
Day 1 of trying the loose leash method with my 11 month old English Lab. 30 minutes and we got around 1 block. Definitely takes practice but saw results. Thank you.
Instant results, intuitive training! Adopted a gorgeous big shepherd lab mix two days ago. First walk was horrible. She nearly pulled me over. Found your channel, and every walk since has been awesome. She seems to be HAPPIER and more SECURE as we work as we walk. Progress is compounding with each walk. Your philosophy and methods are the best!
I just found you last night. I love your method!! It is exactly the same as horse/human training. I can do this!! Thank you for common sense, not over the top, perfection training! It is in the attitude and teaching personal responsibility. Thank you!!
Simply the best!! Today I learned when they are already pulling, loosen the leash for a sec then correct. All these subtle details explained are so helpful! Been watching and practicing for 5 months (?) and still learning! ty!! 🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾❤️
I just want to say I recently stumbled upon your channel yesterday and you are a damn miracle worker. I have a 2 year old pit mix that we rescued 3 weeks ago. Shes super well behaved and potty trained, but its obvious she wasnt used to walking on a leash. I implemented this technique and within the first 5 minutes she understood her assignment. While she may need a little reminder at the start of each walk (which thanks to you I know starts before we even walk out the door), but by the time we reach the end of the driveway shes stopping when I stop and not tensing the leash at all. Truly amazing. Your videos and the way you explain why you are doing what youre doing is a tremendous way to teach. I look forward to more.
Love this, your explanations and demonstrations are always clear and to the point. I have always taken my boy with a harness because he runs and I skate. But now I am using his collar more and more to get effective walking behavior.
Thanks so much. Watched a bunch of "come" and "leash walking" videos. Babysitting our daughter's 2yr old GSP for 4 days. Doesn't come and she can only walk with a harness. Not anymore! There's still work to do but he learned so fast in one day I was in shock. Wish I could post a video. No pain, yelling...just correction, praise and treats as you explain. To see the dog looking at me to know where I am when walking was a thrill. I can call him from anywhere in the house and he flies to my hand. Also saw the video where you went to the park. Nice thing. Keep up the great work and your philosophy is the best! Just subscribed.
Great channel!!! Thank you so much for this demonstrations. I have just gotten a puppy a week ago, and wish to make her into a well behaved dog like yours 😊 so we can have an enjoyable experience together. I’ve watched this one twice. Sure to be great when put into use! Always thought I’d have to take my dog to dog training lessons till now. Big confidence booster!!
I watched the 100k vid again with the wife yesterday. She thought you (Joel) looked like a 6 year old at their birthday party! She thought you were the cutest!! Congrats again!
@@BRENDASMITH6974 me too!!! I feel like we are the lucky ones because we’ve been watching him from the start and rooting for him and his channel/business.😁
Thanks for sharing your wisdom! I have a front leaf walker who has been a puller which has made our walks frustrating for her and me. After watching a couple of your “fix tight leash walkers” I have already seen a significant improvement. One thing I’ve noticed is the fact my dog now looks to me for guidance where as before she was distracted by the world with no care about me. Thanks you !!!
I saw your other video with all the stops and your dog earning their way. It works yall. I have 2 Rottweilers. And my female got it instantly. Understood wat was going on. And the was the nicest we've walked down the drive way. She's never really pulled and we do turn around but the stops made her pay so much more attention to me. My boy is rather nervous we learning new stuff and he was kinda getting it. We stopped because the neighbors dogs was out and I didn't trust that dogs running over to us. But I'm going to continue that because it works so well and hopefully helps more with being so excited to see other dogs. Thankyou so much for your videos.
Congratulation on 100k subscribers! I've been binge watching your videos for weeks now. I like how you train us to communicate better with dogs without pocket full of treats all the time. Not everytime that positve reinforcemet works, like my 9mth retriever, whose brain is all food food and food. Without food? He'll just ignore and pull to wherever he's determine to get to, be it sniffing, choking himself towards the other dog. I wish my country has a trainer like you who knows that dogs need both positive and negative reinforcement, and every dog is different that we have to adjust accordingly. Keep up on teaching us. These videos are so extremely valuable and helpful for us owners.
Hi Joel from the UK. I am so glad I came across your channel as I have an 18 month old 100lb GSD. he is very strong, entire and excitable but has the most amazing temperament. Gentle but extremely clever. I am 70 and have a bad back but by using your methods my boy is amazing to walk I can loose leash walk. His recall is not 100% but now I've seen your video on recall I am going to practice your method and am 100% sure it will work like the loose leash training. Thank you and I wish you were in the UK!! 😉
I have a very curious pitbull who is 11 months old. I've started implementing the techniques you use, and the little things. It's not perfect, but it is a HUGE step in the right direction. I cannot thank you enough for sharing your expertise here.
This was fantastic !. First time watching this channel, and I subscribed. I like how he teaches without all the fluff and vague philosophy like Cesar Milan. No disrespect to Cesar, but he's a showman who needs to keep his audience tuned in for TV/YT.
I want to thank you so much for these videos. My dog is a 100lb German shepherd doberman mix. Crazy strong! Have never been able to walk her. Today I had the courage to take her out and I do have a gentle leader. So amazing!, somehow her leash even got detached and she ran ahead of me. I was able to recall her and get the leash back on. Thank you thank you thank you for giving me the confidence to use your technique. Still have a long way to go with her, but with your guidance on these videos I'm sure we will succeed.
I am one that probable write the same comment over and over, but I have learned so much watching your videos , with an energetic Pit/Boxer puppy pulling and jumping on people, I would have 0 idea what to do..she is 5 months, still have ways to go, but so much better, and when I forget the steps just go back to videos Thank you so much for your expertise!!🙏🙏
Incredible transformation! Can’t wait to see the work happen with my dogs! I have two one year olds and a 2 1/2 year old. The first dog was doing great with training but then I got “distracted” by how well they were doing and then suddenly I had two pups like Cooper who were over excited when seeing other dogs and cats. I feel guilty. Probably not the only one. I’m grateful for your videos!
After you walked out the door at 4:25 as you were talking to us he was looking at you and wagging his tail, like, "I like this guy, he's in charge, he knows what to do." Sweet pup.
I had a leash reactive dog. Great at day camp. Leash on and she was nutty. Went to a trainer who used the bonk method. It didn’t work and I wasn’t a fan. Wish your videos would have been around then. Thank goodness you’re here now. I’m 68 and have an 11 month old Great pyrenees. At my age, she must listen because she could easily pull me down. So far she’s an angel.
KEM Miller It's inspiring to hear you say that you've got a young dog you're working with. I'm just a few yrs younger than you and would love to get a dog but have hesitated doing so. I'm retired and live alone and would love the companionship and purpose a dog would provide however I also want to be sure I can be a good owner. For me being a good owner means being really ready to modify my lifestyle to accommodate dog ownership and having a better understanding of the skills and attitudes necessary. Having found Joel's videos has been wonderful and brought some clarity in making my decision .
@@dlmsarge8329 It is a lifelong commitment. My cattle dogs are 12 1/2 and 14 1/2. They are helping the new pup learn. What they have given me is more than money can repay. And yes, it’s every day making their life good. But so worth it. So very worth it. Because you want to be a good dog parent, I think you would be. Research a breed that suits your lifestyle. There are many breed specific rescues.
Just happened upon this and I know its a year old but boy did it help so much! I have an excited dog who loses all focus when he sees another dog. Will be trying these techniques! Thank you!
Your expertise in your awareness of dogs & their needs of having their Alpha pack owner/leader is amazing! I respect you & you’re my favorite dog trainer on SM! Love your video teachings!
Thank you for taking the time. I too believe in the tone of voice and being calm...still working on the "calm" part though. :) Great to see and hear from another who knows dogs and more importantly himself.
Watching you with Cooper is so helpful! I have a now 5 mo old male malinois who is so smart and is now testing me, so the tools I am getting from watching you are amazing! I have several leashes and collars and in the morning, I am starting with this exercise to get Justice to practice replicating what you have accomplished with Cooper. The recall exercise is working great! The first day I did that exercise, then later in the day, 2 dogs on the other side of the fence were yapping away, another dog at the fence at the other end of the yard, barking and then, the neighbor behind started to cut his grass right up against the fence…I was actually excited to have all these distractions! Within about 5 minutes all these distractIons arose. I let Justice greet the dogs at the fence (I acknowledged the activity on the other side - like you did at the window when the dog was barking at a passerby), then the dog at the other end barking and I was working recall. Suddenly the lawnmower was going and cracking sticks, etc. right up against the fence. My dog came every time and it was my body language that made it all fall into place with all the noise! I love your training attitude and the common sense involved. After this video, I am watching YOU, not the dog. Such a simple tip that makes a huge difference. This is my 2nd Belgian and I can confess, that a Malinois is more than a short- haired Tervuren. So watching you confirms I am not in over my head, but definitely have some different challenges with a working bloodline V a show bloodline. Thank you so much. I love feeling successful in my training because your way is really training me!
Thank you for all the knowledge you give us! I have a female Am. Akita, she will be 1 year old in two weeks, shes very dominant but has friends that she plays with every night at the dog park. I walk her every morning and im working on recall in the house, if she is looking outside the window she will NOT come, so i go and grab her, every morning, its almost like she doesnt want to go, and at night, i had to go hardcore on the doorway method bc thats when she wants to fly out the door bc she knows shes going to play. She used to pull me all the way to the dog park (thankfully its 1 Block away haha) but now, with 2 days of doing the method, she walks calmly until we are there. We are still working on meeting new dogs, she was super socialized, smelling and playing with every dog she met, but when 5-6 months hit, it was like she realized that she was stronger and meaner than almost every dog in the world (i feel that thats what she think) and it became hard to introduce her to new dogs..but in the meantime she plays with the ones that are her friends. So thank you very much because really everything you teach us, works!
Thank You so much for your videos I started training my Jack Russel and is been a challenge because I didn’t start early on as a puppy. But i have faith is never to late his doing well so far we are working on the no pull walks currently. I definitely agree that you don’t need treats every single time or even at all. You are great at what you do thanks again. Wish me luck at socializing him a 5yr old .
We adopted a rescue puppy 3 weeks ago and in addition have a very excitable 1.5 year old rescue and a 9 year old dog. I watched this video last night for several reasons as well as the first video that showed the training of this particular dog. Just yesterday my puppy was pulling on his flat collar so hard he was choking himself as well as killing my shoulder. I was coming from a place of "I just want to love my new puppy, he is so adorable (he is!) and basically acting like he was a baby. He knew he was loved for sure but he was just about doing his own thing unaware of what I really wanted from him. With that said- he's very bright and and has learned many commands and tricks already and is eager to please in so many ways- just not on the leash. So I watch the two videos last night and the concept of having the right attitude and understanding my job is to be the boss- it just made sense to me. I realized it's basically me giving the dog boundaries and helping the dog feel safe because it understands what the rules and expectations are. I wasn't doing that. I was sending very mixed messages and wanted my new puppy to love our family and feel loved by our family as a number one top priority. I was feeling frustrated with the pulling behaviors and also with the behaviors of our adult rescue adolescent. I woke up this morning hopeful and implemented everything I learned in these two videos and I am amazed at the results. My puppy learned in one walk using these skills taught here to walk on a loose leash with zero pulling!!! He is a lab/husky and he enjoys pulling! My puppy who was lunging at birds and squirrels and giving me a sore arm was choosing to sit and watch them go by and walk nicely by my side. We took a morning and afternoon walk for a total of 3 miles. He was a delight. We passed dogs and people and he walked like a champ on my left side, used up all his energy focusing on walking how I told him to, looked at me often with a wagging tail and smile and came home happy! He napped for a solid hour in his crate. I hope everyone tries the methods shown here. I thought I was going to need a prong down the road but now I know he'll be fine on his flat collar. Thank you!
Very nice & informative video. I love that there are trainers like you or Larry Krohn, who show people that when upbringing your dog (not even saying training) and teaching him how to live with humans in our society & enrionment in a nice, calm and balanced fashion, you cannot base it all on treats and that, just like a human, dog has to learn that there are certain consequences to their actions. I own a 10-month old female Vizsla that is at times very similar to this lab (I'd even say that she's on a much higher energy level). If I tried to lure her with treats and beg her every time she wants to just go wild and do whatever the hell she wants (and she's in the difficult period of being a dog teenager), I'd end up with a dog I cannot really live with and no amount of treats could change that. I've started incorporating some of your methods a couple months back into our daily routing and it worked well for us, now I have a 10-month old dog that understands the idea of a structured walk, doesn't pay much interest to other people in the street and walks nicely on a loose leash (of course I need to remind her a couple of times that when on a 2m long leash, she ain't gotthe freedom but when I change to the long line, she can do whatever the hell she wants). We're still working on the excitement when she sees another dog (especially the small barking ones) but there's also a huge progress there. I think the biggest step a dog owner can make is to realize that more often than not we're spoiling our dogs by just letting them do whatever they want. "Oh but he's so friendly and wants to meet, I can't say no to that", "Oh, but he wanted to smell the grass there" etc. There's nothing about domination there, it's just like you said - "it's a boss - employee relationship". You do what I want, there're good things waiting. You show me a middle finger, well you can but there will be unpleasant consequences. As simple as that. I can be a loving dog daddy all day long as long, play or train with her as she doesn't show me the middle finger. When she does, there are consequences. If we're in the fields and we go back to the car after a walk / gundog training, if she refuses to jump in when I ask her to, I jump in, close the door and drive away without saying anything, asking or begging. Me leaving without her is the best cue for "no young lady, you don't get to stay here and sniff the grass for another 10 min. Get into the car, now!". I've done that like 3-4 times and now she is not really trying to negotiate or show me the middle finger anymore.
It's a very small balance between showing the middle finger and acting as your genes tell you. A Viszla is a hunting dog and not a family dog. He wants and needs to hunt (you can do this with him without having him chase deer or rabbits), and suppressing this is unnatural and certainly not being a lovely daddy. I find this trainer quite unpleasant.
I just started watching your videos & i love your approach. Going to start immediately with my 7 yr old unneutered male jack russell/aussie cattle dog mix. He is very reactive on the leash, barking & lunging at dogs, bicycles or even just a person walking by. Sometimes, very rarely, he'll be ok but if the other dog reacts first..he goes ballistic!! I have literally picked him up in my arms, just kept walking & put him down when we're a safe distance away. He's not very big but he is strong. Heading out for our walk..🤞😊
I tell my clients that their dogs look at them like Gods, so they should have that attitude [and posture/tone] with them. I average 80% 1 and done with this kind of call. Most people simply need to see their dogs responding to believe it's possible. I tell everyone with dogs about your channel, including my clients. I care more about the dogs than the money. Ego has no place in dog training. Congrats on 100K! More than a few came from me.
@@User7688.--_, I am less than 6 months in my transition from self employed renovations to dog training/ opening a flower nursery. I cut the dog appointments down to Sundays and Mondays, leaving me the time to really get flowers in the dirt. The aggressive dog sessions are super scary, but it's my job to not flinch when they charge me. For me, it's the moment when they first free themselves from their mental torture that makes it all worth it. The money doesn't hurt for sure, but I don't feel bad taking it when the client feels like they saw a miracle take place.
@@irishduchess7577, as soon as I learn to edit, I have videos coming. I have some neat ways of getting results within a session and explaining the whys and hows. But today was huge. My neighbor and business partner just got his 9 week old Shepherd with a German passport. I have been given full access to make videos. This dog is unreal. I can't wait to teach him. Thanks for the well wishes. The same to you.
I have a nine month old Shepherd, I thought I had missed the best training age, due to hubby. Ding seriously hurt, when he was a 2 months old, tried your loose lease and recall today, great progress for first time! He’s actually more eager to please at this age, who knew!!! 😀 Thank you so very much!
I just wanted to say BIG thankyou all the way from sweden 🇸🇪 I tried the pulling this morning with my 1,5 year labrador who is similar to Cooper when it comes to his energy level. I saw a conpletely different dog today and he never once walked infront of me and he looked so professional! WOW! You made my life easier and I am now excited going out with him more. Request: Havent seen many trainers show how you can make your dog be more patient waiting, sitting calmly when I am speaking to someone or if I want to picknick and sit in the grass without the whining and stress. Could you elaborate on that? Big Thank you again 💚 Ida
Thank you! My year old husky is a handful and tries to ignore commands. In order to be the leader, I MUST be firm and consistent. People need to understand that training creates a better life for him, more walks, experiences, safety etc. If you raised a child without imparting manners rules or consequences, the effect would be the same. Being "mean" is allowing an ill mannered dog to run you, knowing it will mean a lower quality of life for the dog in the long run. Kudos for getting this 👌
I see a teenager, her two siblings being dragged along by their young husky on a shared walking/cycling track most afternoons. The dog is on a harness, making the pulling even easier for the dog. Everyone moves off the track when they come into view. I can see this ending in disaster unless they get some assertive leadership happening soon.
@@WollongongSkyWatch In the beginning I was nearly hit by a car when my dog decided to chase a squirrel, that's when I realized I owed it to us both to let him know he wasn't in charge. I hope they are persistent with training so they can enjoy a safe outing. Any dog is trainable.
@@SpecsAppeal how truly frightening! I can easily see something smiliar happening with this dog and its young owners if they don't get control before the dog is fully grown. I will try talking to them when I see them next.
It might seem rough to people (though you could gradually ease up after the dog makes progress) but its apparent in the likes, that you are helping alot of people keep their dogs in control while not exactly being a balanced dog owner ourselves. To raise a balanced dog is like truly raising a child.
Great Video! Brought back some memories when I had a Lab. He used to lose his mind when there was anything associated with walking including a Leash, shoes, socks, the word "walk" or "out". He had a long life - lived until 16. But this video would've helped to control his "Spazstic" tendencies!...LOL.
Honestly after watching a few of your videos I am making soo much progress with my dog walks. I have a long road ahead of me but your videos are making the whole process enjoyable.
A great walk, going to watch the first one! Thanks for the confidence you have in all of us becoming a great leader with your great help!!! If I use the rules you have said, make my ques louder, I am getting there,!! I don't say anymore, baby mommy going, that has helped me so much as well as all the great training I learning from you,!!!!!!!!!!!
THANK YOU for this video. It literally only took 2 days for my very excitable 9 month old Australian Koolie x Kelpie to get the idea and stop the pulling on walks. It has made walking such a pleasure! Now to attempt to help him with his separation anxiety.....
Tried this on a walk with my Australian Shepherd and it worked wonders. right now i just want him to keep checking in with me on the walks makes sure I'm still there and he doesn't run off and this worked so I'll keep it going. Thanks for the video very helpful.
Joel... I like your training methodologies. I wish videos like this were available when I was practicing as a dvm. Behavioral problems used to be one of the most common reasons people were unwilling or unable to keep a dog that was otherwise healthy. Training dogs is complicated and requires owner education, consistency, and persistence, as you know all too well. Thanks for these videos, which I do refer other people to, even in my retirement.
My three year old boy has been consistently bad on the lead. He’s distracted by everything and extremely excitable. I tried this with him this morning and we had the best walk ever. Thank you for sharing your expertise.
Penny is a veritable cloud she's so poofy! It can be hard with these dogs because they are so clearly happy to see us and us see them, but it's important to remain calm and not overly excited to feed into his energy. He's smart boy!
Today a 3year old of the family opened the front door and our reactive, dominant dog didn’t fly out while the door was just wide open. How amazing is that?! A neighbor passed by the house and he even growled at her (which is bad, I know) but he STILL didn’t leave the house. (Which he did multiple times a year ago btw and we had to chase him up and down the street for some minutes). Crazy, I never thought this would be possible someday. Thanks to your method!
Congratulations! That had to feel amazing to see for the first time.
That’s awesome! My dog also sits and waits. It’s amazing! He knows!
@@TheDwightMamba yes! Thank you!!
@@Ms.OliversLife yes it’s great 😍
Awesome pet parenting!
This is the exact type of training videos I need to see, no treats just good realistic conditioning
That release before the leash “pop” is key for my understanding. You teach the dog his job is to know where you are and where you’re going at all times.
Yes! Subbed this channel when he used to get 500 views total and it’s only in this video that I clocked the release and correct 🤣
For anyone reading this: I know that dog training can be difficult sometimes, but you're doing great. Keep up the good work, and your dog (and your own sanity) will thank you for it! ❤️

Absolutely!
You can see that Cooper isn't afraid at all. He is calm and at attention, following the trainers cues. This channel is gonna be so helpful training my dad's dogs
This video has changed my dogs life! I was so confused about leash walking. I tried positive reinforcement and my dog would just take the treat and dash back to what she wanted. But with this method she is paying attention to my movement and I reward her when she is doing super good. Thank you so much for posting a full detailed video!!
That sounds like you did it wrong. Positive reinforcement doesn't mean to out a treat in the dogs mouth. It is a whole concept that starts already inside the house. Petting and praising is often enough. So if your dog just ran back to where ever it wanted to go it didn't understand what you want from him in the first place. 😅
OMG!!!!! You are a genius!!! 5 years using the prong...even with training classes, he would even pull with the prong collar...I watched this and other of your videos.. I braved up, just put the leash on the flat collar and BOOM it worked!!! I walked him all the way to the end of the block, with a loose leash and no treats!!! This is a freaking miracle!!!
Prong is not to be used with pulling, it used to give loose leash corrections. You have been using it wrong.. I use harness and corrections work with it also, no need for prong or ecollar or any other collar. Harness is great.
Harness is designed to hell dogs pull. Big misconception regarding these things. You attach a harness to a dog to a sled as it helps them anchor and distribute the weight evenly while they pull.
Walking your dog you should only use a collar and lead, no prong as they're just as evil as shock collars.
Talking from four years experience walking a Husky on a collar and lead. Harnesses are absolutely useless in my opinion. Only good thing I use them for is to be able to secure dog in the car during transport.
@@youtubeblogger3088 My dog doesnt pull with harness and if he does react the weight distributes evenly and doesnt damage his throat. I dont see use for collar.
Have to say it, Joel, I love the simplicity and clarity and honesty of your training clips. Thanks dude.
I like Caesar and Dog Daddy. But your training is by far the only one I think any regular person can reliably replicate. Caesar and DD seem to have an almost instinctual understanding that I can't duplicate aside from the shallow surface facade. But your methods and explanations are simple, straightforward, and [more] repeatable. And for that, I sincerely thank you.
I love his show and thisjust summarizes and lays out all of the basic methods he uses on the show. What i love about this guide th-cam.com/users/postUgkxKkYeOoCV_w2vPX0CSyVWkhew2c4FYk0d is that you don' need to read the whole book cover to cover ... You can skip to the chapter (lesson) you want to read about. The book is arranged almost as a problem-solving guide ... Here is the problem and here is what you need to know/do to correct it. This man knows his stuff ... But more importantly knows how to teach people how they can work with their pups themselves!
Thank you, Joel! I’ve learned so much on you channel that I’m no longer interested in seeing other dog trainer channels. 👍🏻
Wow now 329K subscribers! Joel you are such a great teacher!!! All of the details, the attitude coaching, showing all of Cooper's corrections, too! 🐾❤️ It's great to rewatch these for refreshers!
There is so much to learn from each video, thank you. 😊
Your training has made the world of difference for our family and the safety of our dog! We have a 1-year-old puppy that has needed the structure that you talk about in this video and it has made everybody difference for our family❤❤❤
This video and the other leash pulling videos Beckman has posted seriously worked so well! I just started fostering to adopt a dog and I've watch so many training videos online and these tips worked instantly today! It honestly did help with some of the other basic commands since the dog wasn't paying attention to me. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge 🙌
Thank you for helping so many dog owners! This has helped me know how to train my dog correctly.
You are one of the very few people that I send my clients to to show good examples and explanations!
I train very similar if not a exactly how are you do and I absolutely love helping dogs and I hope I can expand one day
So succinct and to the point, thanks for another great video!!
No nonsense approach. So refreshing. Thank you.
So informative!! Thank you sooo much for your clear instructions.
Day 1 of trying the loose leash method with my 11 month old English Lab. 30 minutes and we got around 1 block. Definitely takes practice but saw results. Thank you.
Instant results, intuitive training! Adopted a gorgeous big shepherd lab mix two days ago. First walk was horrible. She nearly pulled me over. Found your channel, and every walk since has been awesome. She seems to be HAPPIER and more SECURE as we work as we walk. Progress is compounding with each walk. Your philosophy and methods are the best!
Very clear attitude and signal! Thank you!
Wow, sooo informative. You're my go to guy for dog training now! Love your methods. Thank you for sharing your vast knowledge. Bless you.
I just found you last night. I love your method!! It is exactly the same as horse/human training. I can do this!! Thank you for common sense, not over the top, perfection training! It is in the attitude and teaching personal responsibility. Thank you!!
Of the best trainers there is, thanks for your insight and great work
Simply the best!! Today I learned when they are already pulling, loosen the leash for a sec then correct. All these subtle details explained are so helpful! Been watching and practicing for 5 months (?) and still learning! ty!! 🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾❤️
I just want to say I recently stumbled upon your channel yesterday and you are a damn miracle worker. I have a 2 year old pit mix that we rescued 3 weeks ago. Shes super well behaved and potty trained, but its obvious she wasnt used to walking on a leash. I implemented this technique and within the first 5 minutes she understood her assignment. While she may need a little reminder at the start of each walk (which thanks to you I know starts before we even walk out the door), but by the time we reach the end of the driveway shes stopping when I stop and not tensing the leash at all. Truly amazing. Your videos and the way you explain why you are doing what youre doing is a tremendous way to teach. I look forward to more.
Love this, your explanations and demonstrations are always clear and to the point.
I have always taken my boy with a harness because he runs and I skate. But now I am using his collar more and more to get effective walking behavior.
Thanks so much. Watched a bunch of "come" and "leash walking" videos. Babysitting our daughter's 2yr old GSP for 4 days. Doesn't come and she can only walk with a harness. Not anymore! There's still work to do but he learned so fast in one day I was in shock. Wish I could post a video. No pain, yelling...just correction, praise and treats as you explain. To see the dog looking at me to know where I am when walking was a thrill. I can call him from anywhere in the house and he flies to my hand. Also saw the video where you went to the park. Nice thing. Keep up the great work and your philosophy is the best! Just subscribed.
Another banger 💪🙏🏻 Thanks for the great tips
Great channel!!! Thank you so much for this demonstrations. I have just gotten a puppy a week ago, and wish to make her into a well behaved dog like yours 😊 so we can have an enjoyable experience together. I’ve watched this one twice. Sure to be great when put into use! Always thought I’d have to take my dog to dog training lessons till now. Big confidence booster!!
Well done! Finally I found you❤ someone who really shows us how to do it!❤
Joel, I really like your training techniques. Dogs are smart and will respond with direct, confident and clear instructions. I have learned so much.
I watched the 100k vid again with the wife yesterday. She thought you (Joel) looked like a 6 year old at their birthday party! She thought you were the cutest!! Congrats again!
This technique is a game changer!!! We actually enjoy walking our dog now! Thank you!!!!
This channel is blowing up!!!
Go team Beckman!🙌🏼🎉😁
I am so happy because I want this man to stay teaching us for a long time.
@@BRENDASMITH6974 me too!!! I feel like we are the lucky ones because we’ve been watching him from the start and rooting for him and his channel/business.😁
Thanks for sharing your wisdom!
I have a front leaf walker who has been a puller which has made our walks frustrating for her and me. After watching a couple of your “fix tight leash walkers” I have already seen a significant improvement. One thing I’ve noticed is the fact my dog now looks to me for guidance where as before she was distracted by the world with no care about me.
Thanks you !!!
That’s key I’ve found too! Having my dogs check in with me constantly! It’s awesome!
I saw your other video with all the stops and your dog earning their way. It works yall. I have 2 Rottweilers. And my female got it instantly. Understood wat was going on. And the was the nicest we've walked down the drive way. She's never really pulled and we do turn around but the stops made her pay so much more attention to me. My boy is rather nervous we learning new stuff and he was kinda getting it. We stopped because the neighbors dogs was out and I didn't trust that dogs running over to us. But I'm going to continue that because it works so well and hopefully helps more with being so excited to see other dogs.
Thankyou so much for your videos.
Congratulation on 100k subscribers! I've been binge watching your videos for weeks now. I like how you train us to communicate better with dogs without pocket full of treats all the time. Not everytime that positve reinforcemet works, like my 9mth retriever, whose brain is all food food and food. Without food? He'll just ignore and pull to wherever he's determine to get to, be it sniffing, choking himself towards the other dog. I wish my country has a trainer like you who knows that dogs need both positive and negative reinforcement, and every dog is different that we have to adjust accordingly. Keep up on teaching us. These videos are so extremely valuable and helpful for us owners.
Hi Joel from the UK. I am so glad I came across your channel as I have an 18 month old 100lb GSD. he is very strong, entire and excitable but has the most amazing temperament. Gentle but extremely clever. I am 70 and have a bad back but by using your methods my boy is amazing to walk I can loose leash walk. His recall is not 100% but now I've seen your video on recall I am going to practice your method and am 100% sure it will work like the loose leash training. Thank you and I wish you were in the UK!! 😉
How is your boy doing now? I have to work on my 10months GSD puppy, he is getting stronger and a hell of puller too lol
What a helpful and informational video!
Thank you Joel.
I have a very curious pitbull who is 11 months old. I've started implementing the techniques you use, and the little things. It's not perfect, but it is a HUGE step in the right direction. I cannot thank you enough for sharing your expertise here.
This was fantastic !. First time watching this channel, and I subscribed. I like how he teaches without all the fluff and vague philosophy like Cesar Milan. No disrespect to Cesar, but he's a showman who needs to keep his audience tuned in for TV/YT.
Thank you so much for showing a dog who isnt already trained!!! Cant wait to try this today!!!
I want to thank you so much for these videos. My dog is a 100lb German shepherd doberman mix. Crazy strong! Have never been able to walk her. Today I had the courage to take her out and I do have a gentle leader. So amazing!, somehow her leash even got detached and she ran ahead of me. I was able to recall her and get the leash back on. Thank you thank you thank you for giving me the confidence to use your technique. Still have a long way to go with her, but with your guidance on these videos I'm sure we will succeed.
I am one that probable write the same comment over and over, but I have learned so much watching your videos , with an energetic Pit/Boxer puppy pulling and jumping on people, I would have 0 idea what to do..she is 5 months, still have ways to go, but so much better, and when I forget the steps just go back to videos
Thank you so much for your expertise!!🙏🙏
I feel like I say the same things too, but I can't help it, this stuff is gold!
Incredible transformation! Can’t wait to see the work happen with my dogs! I have two one year olds and a 2 1/2 year old. The first dog was doing great with training but then I got “distracted” by how well they were doing and then suddenly I had two pups like Cooper who were over excited when seeing other dogs and cats. I feel guilty.
Probably not the only one.
I’m grateful for your videos!
After you walked out the door at 4:25 as you were talking to us he was looking at you and wagging his tail, like, "I like this guy, he's in charge, he knows what to do." Sweet pup.
I had a leash reactive dog. Great at day camp. Leash on and she was nutty. Went to a trainer who used the bonk method. It didn’t work and I wasn’t a fan. Wish your videos would have been around then. Thank goodness you’re here now. I’m 68 and have an 11 month old Great pyrenees. At my age, she must listen because she could easily pull me down. So far she’s an angel.
KEM Miller It's inspiring to hear you say that you've got a young dog you're working with. I'm just a few yrs younger than you and would love to get a dog but have hesitated doing so. I'm retired and live alone and would love the companionship and purpose a dog would provide however I also want to be sure I can be a good owner. For me being a good owner means being really ready to modify my lifestyle to accommodate dog ownership and having a better understanding of the skills and attitudes necessary. Having found Joel's videos has been wonderful and brought some clarity in making my decision .
@@dlmsarge8329 It is a lifelong commitment. My cattle dogs are 12 1/2 and 14 1/2. They are helping the new pup learn. What they have given me is more than money can repay. And yes, it’s every day making their life good. But so worth it. So very worth it. Because you want to be a good dog parent, I think you would be. Research a breed that suits your lifestyle. There are many breed specific rescues.
Mine 9 month old, is brutal, I’m on my butt in the woods almost daily! Thank goodness I found this channel 😂
Love your help with the beginners skills that we need to training our dog enjoy and that we can be safe with.
Just happened upon this and I know its a year old but boy did it help so much! I have an excited dog who loses all focus when he sees another dog. Will be trying these techniques! Thank you!
Glad I found this channel, thank you Joel!
Your expertise in your awareness of dogs & their needs of having their Alpha pack owner/leader is amazing! I respect you & you’re my favorite dog trainer on SM! Love your video teachings!
Once again another great video. I love watching your videos.
When I saw how good your own dogs behaved, I knew I would take my advice from you. Thanks again!
Thank you for taking the time. I too believe in the tone of voice and being calm...still working on the "calm" part though. :) Great to see and hear from another who knows dogs and more importantly himself.
O-K-A-Y..? Don't the two first letters give it away anyway :')
i giggled. Thanks for leaving that in :')
I was thinking exactly the same 😅👍
Watching you with Cooper is so helpful! I have a now 5 mo old male malinois who is so smart and is now testing me, so the tools I am getting from watching you are amazing! I have several leashes and collars and in the morning, I am starting with this exercise to get Justice to practice replicating what you have accomplished with Cooper.
The recall exercise is working great! The first day I did that exercise, then later in the day, 2 dogs on the other side of the fence were yapping away, another dog at the fence at the other end of the yard, barking and then, the neighbor behind started to cut his grass right up against the fence…I was actually excited to have all these distractions! Within about 5 minutes all these distractIons arose. I let Justice greet the dogs at the fence (I acknowledged the activity on the other side - like you did at the window when the dog was barking at a passerby), then the dog at the other end barking and I was working recall. Suddenly the lawnmower was going and cracking sticks, etc. right up against the fence. My dog came every time and it was my body language that made it all fall into place with all the noise!
I love your training attitude and the common sense involved. After this video, I am watching YOU, not the dog. Such a simple tip that makes a huge difference. This is my 2nd Belgian and I can confess, that a Malinois is more than a short- haired Tervuren. So watching you confirms I am not in over my head, but definitely have some different challenges with a working bloodline V a show bloodline. Thank you so much. I love feeling successful in my training because your way is really training me!
Thank you for all the knowledge you give us! I have a female Am. Akita, she will be 1 year old in two weeks, shes very dominant but has friends that she plays with every night at the dog park. I walk her every morning and im working on recall in the house, if she is looking outside the window she will NOT come, so i go and grab her, every morning, its almost like she doesnt want to go, and at night, i had to go hardcore on the doorway method bc thats when she wants to fly out the door bc she knows shes going to play. She used to pull me all the way to the dog park (thankfully its 1 Block away haha) but now, with 2 days of doing the method, she walks calmly until we are there. We are still working on meeting new dogs, she was super socialized, smelling and playing with every dog she met, but when 5-6 months hit, it was like she realized that she was stronger and meaner than almost every dog in the world (i feel that thats what she think) and it became hard to introduce her to new dogs..but in the meantime she plays with the ones that are her friends.
So thank you very much because really everything you teach us, works!
This is the first time I ser training like this. Very effective. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for making it easier to follow your training. Can’t wait to try this on my 16 month old Havichon Norman
Worked amazing. First try and then no leash at all. Thank you so much.
Thank You so much for your videos I started training my Jack Russel and is been a challenge because I didn’t start early on as a puppy. But i have faith is never to late his doing well so far we are working on the no pull walks currently. I definitely agree that you don’t need treats every single time or even at all. You are great at what you do thanks again. Wish me luck at socializing him a 5yr old .
We adopted a rescue puppy 3 weeks ago and in addition have a very excitable 1.5 year old rescue and a 9 year old dog. I watched this video last night for several reasons as well as the first video that showed the training of this particular dog. Just yesterday my puppy was pulling on his flat collar so hard he was choking himself as well as killing my shoulder. I was coming from a place of "I just want to love my new puppy, he is so adorable (he is!) and basically acting like he was a baby. He knew he was loved for sure but he was just about doing his own thing unaware of what I really wanted from him. With that said- he's very bright and and has learned many commands and tricks already and is eager to please in so many ways- just not on the leash.
So I watch the two videos last night and the concept of having the right attitude and understanding my job is to be the boss- it just made sense to me. I realized it's basically me giving the dog boundaries and helping the dog feel safe because it understands what the rules and expectations are. I wasn't doing that. I was sending very mixed messages and wanted my new puppy to love our family and feel loved by our family as a number one top priority. I was feeling frustrated with the pulling behaviors and also with the behaviors of our adult rescue adolescent.
I woke up this morning hopeful and implemented everything I learned in these two videos and I am amazed at the results. My puppy learned in one walk using these skills taught here to walk on a loose leash with zero pulling!!! He is a lab/husky and he enjoys pulling!
My puppy who was lunging at birds and squirrels and giving me a sore arm was choosing to sit and watch them go by and walk nicely by my side. We took a morning and afternoon walk for a total of 3 miles. He was a delight. We passed dogs and people and he walked like a champ on my left side, used up all his energy focusing on walking how I told him to, looked at me often with a wagging tail and smile and came home happy! He napped for a solid hour in his crate. I hope everyone tries the methods shown here. I thought I was going to need a prong down the road but now I know he'll be fine on his flat collar. Thank you!
Very nice & informative video. I love that there are trainers like you or Larry Krohn, who show people that when upbringing your dog (not even saying training) and teaching him how to live with humans in our society & enrionment in a nice, calm and balanced fashion, you cannot base it all on treats and that, just like a human, dog has to learn that there are certain consequences to their actions.
I own a 10-month old female Vizsla that is at times very similar to this lab (I'd even say that she's on a much higher energy level). If I tried to lure her with treats and beg her every time she wants to just go wild and do whatever the hell she wants (and she's in the difficult period of being a dog teenager), I'd end up with a dog I cannot really live with and no amount of treats could change that.
I've started incorporating some of your methods a couple months back into our daily routing and it worked well for us, now I have a 10-month old dog that understands the idea of a structured walk, doesn't pay much interest to other people in the street and walks nicely on a loose leash (of course I need to remind her a couple of times that when on a 2m long leash, she ain't gotthe freedom but when I change to the long line, she can do whatever the hell she wants). We're still working on the excitement when she sees another dog (especially the small barking ones) but there's also a huge progress there.
I think the biggest step a dog owner can make is to realize that more often than not we're spoiling our dogs by just letting them do whatever they want. "Oh but he's so friendly and wants to meet, I can't say no to that", "Oh, but he wanted to smell the grass there" etc. There's nothing about domination there, it's just like you said - "it's a boss - employee relationship". You do what I want, there're good things waiting. You show me a middle finger, well you can but there will be unpleasant consequences. As simple as that. I can be a loving dog daddy all day long as long, play or train with her as she doesn't show me the middle finger. When she does, there are consequences.
If we're in the fields and we go back to the car after a walk / gundog training, if she refuses to jump in when I ask her to, I jump in, close the door and drive away without saying anything, asking or begging. Me leaving without her is the best cue for "no young lady, you don't get to stay here and sniff the grass for another 10 min. Get into the car, now!". I've done that like 3-4 times and now she is not really trying to negotiate or show me the middle finger anymore.
It's a very small balance between showing the middle finger and acting as your genes tell you. A Viszla is a hunting dog and not a family dog. He wants and needs to hunt (you can do this with him without having him chase deer or rabbits), and suppressing this is unnatural and certainly not being a lovely daddy. I find this trainer quite unpleasant.
Thanks for the gentle leader idea. Great tool.
I just started watching your videos & i love your approach. Going to start immediately with my 7 yr old unneutered male jack russell/aussie cattle dog mix. He is very reactive on the leash, barking & lunging at dogs, bicycles or even just a person walking by. Sometimes, very rarely, he'll be ok but if the other dog reacts first..he goes ballistic!! I have literally picked him up in my arms, just kept walking & put him down when we're a safe distance away. He's not very big but he is strong. Heading out for our walk..🤞😊
I tell my clients that their dogs look at them like Gods, so they should have that attitude [and posture/tone] with them. I average 80% 1 and done with this kind of call. Most people simply need to see their dogs responding to believe it's possible.
I tell everyone with dogs about your channel, including my clients. I care more about the dogs than the money. Ego has no place in dog training.
Congrats on 100K! More than a few came from me.
Cool! You too care about the dogs! Way to go!
@@User7688.--_, I am less than 6 months in my transition from self employed renovations to dog training/ opening a flower nursery.
I cut the dog appointments down to Sundays and Mondays, leaving me the time to really get flowers in the dirt.
The aggressive dog sessions are super scary, but it's my job to not flinch when they charge me. For me, it's the moment when they first free themselves from their mental torture that makes it all worth it. The money doesn't hurt for sure, but I don't feel bad taking it when the client feels like they saw a miracle take place.
@@TheDwightMambagood luck to you! Always love to see people following their dreams
Best of luck!
@@irishduchess7577, as soon as I learn to edit, I have videos coming. I have some neat ways of getting results within a session and explaining the whys and hows.
But today was huge. My neighbor and business partner just got his 9 week old Shepherd with a German passport. I have been given full access to make videos. This dog is unreal. I can't wait to teach him.
Thanks for the well wishes. The same to you.
glad i found this channel, my arms have been hurting for weeks my dog is so excited all the time
Thank you for the cooper video,I have an exact duplicate of him,I learned a lot for my Labrador Retriever.
Cheers Joel. Great video. I no longer watch anyone else for tips on how to help my Zak. 👍.
I have a nine month old Shepherd, I thought I had missed the best training age, due to hubby. Ding seriously hurt, when he was a 2 months old, tried your loose lease and recall today, great progress for first time! He’s actually more eager to please at this age, who knew!!! 😀 Thank you so very much!
I have a 9 month old shepherd too female, 9 months old if already imprinted upon train however you want so long as it turns out to work
I just wanted to say BIG thankyou all the way from sweden 🇸🇪 I tried the pulling this morning with my 1,5 year labrador who is similar to Cooper when it comes to his energy level.
I saw a conpletely different dog today and he never once walked infront of me and he looked so professional! WOW! You made my life easier and I am now excited going out with him more.
Request: Havent seen many trainers show how you can make your dog be more patient waiting, sitting calmly when I am speaking to someone or if I want to picknick and sit in the grass without the whining and stress.
Could you elaborate on that?
Big Thank you again 💚
Ida
Thank you! My year old husky is a handful and tries to ignore commands. In order to be the leader, I MUST be firm and consistent. People need to understand that training creates a better life for him, more walks, experiences, safety etc. If you raised a child without imparting manners rules or consequences, the effect would be the same. Being "mean" is allowing an ill mannered dog to run you, knowing it will mean a lower quality of life for the dog in the long run. Kudos for getting this 👌
I see a teenager, her two siblings being dragged along by their young husky on a shared walking/cycling track most afternoons. The dog is on a harness, making the pulling even easier for the dog. Everyone moves off the track when they come into view. I can see this ending in disaster unless they get some assertive leadership happening soon.
@@WollongongSkyWatch In the beginning I was nearly hit by a car when my dog decided to chase a squirrel, that's when I realized I owed it to us both to let him know he wasn't in charge. I hope they are persistent with training so they can enjoy a safe outing. Any dog is trainable.
@@SpecsAppeal how truly frightening! I can easily see something smiliar happening with this dog and its young owners if they don't get control before the dog is fully grown. I will try talking to them when I see them next.
I agree. It's a constant job keeping them in line.
I have a gsd thats the same way
It might seem rough to people (though you could gradually ease up after the dog makes progress) but its apparent in the likes, that you are helping alot of people keep their dogs in control while not exactly being a balanced dog owner ourselves. To raise a balanced dog is like truly raising a child.
Great Video!
Brought back some memories when I had a Lab. He used to lose his mind when there was anything associated with walking including a Leash, shoes, socks, the word "walk" or "out". He had a long life - lived until 16. But this video would've helped to control his "Spazstic" tendencies!...LOL.
Honestly after watching a few of your videos I am making soo much progress with my dog walks. I have a long road ahead of me but your videos are making the whole process enjoyable.
A great walk, going to watch the first one! Thanks for the confidence you have in all of us becoming a great leader with your great help!!! If I use the rules you have said, make my ques louder, I am getting there,!! I don't say anymore, baby mommy going, that has helped me so much as well as all the great training I learning from you,!!!!!!!!!!!
THANK YOU for this video. It literally only took 2 days for my very excitable 9 month old Australian Koolie x Kelpie to get the idea and stop the pulling on walks. It has made walking such a pleasure! Now to attempt to help him with his separation anxiety.....
Tried this on a walk with my Australian Shepherd and it worked wonders. right now i just want him to keep checking in with me on the walks makes sure I'm still there and he doesn't run off and this worked so I'll keep it going. Thanks for the video very helpful.
All about calm secure energy. You nail it
Joel... I like your training methodologies. I wish videos like this were available when I was practicing as a dvm. Behavioral problems used to be one of the most common reasons people were unwilling or unable to keep a dog that was otherwise healthy. Training dogs is complicated and requires owner education, consistency, and persistence, as you know all too well. Thanks for these videos, which I do refer other people to, even in my retirement.
Another good video Joel - a major problem though is that many owners find it impossible to be the boss of anything - least of all a dog hehehe
This is an average energetic level for a Lab. My lab does this all the time. Thanks for the video. it's really helpful.
Great explanation, a lot of good knowledge
Powerful! If all owners can master this basic technique the dog world would be amazing 🤩
I am the boss! I am the boss! I am the BOSS !!!!! Imma keep reminding myself of that. This dog is a cutie ☺️
Thankyou for changing my life
I needed this, my dog will always do this when on a leash and I was getting kind of tired running around the house until he'd calm down.
Working on my dog like a charm. I grew a leader. Finally walked pass two dogs without reaching. Ty so much
Great channel
My three year old boy has been consistently bad on the lead. He’s distracted by everything and extremely excitable.
I tried this with him this morning and we had the best walk ever. Thank you for sharing your expertise.
Very informative channel about dog psychology.. I'm so happy I found it..
Amen Joel!! keep up the good work!
another instructive helpfull vid . . many thanks
Penny is a veritable cloud she's so poofy! It can be hard with these dogs because they are so clearly happy to see us and us see them, but it's important to remain calm and not overly excited to feed into his energy. He's smart boy!
Great reminder for my smart Uber energetic 1 yr Boston‼️ I just can’t walk fast these days, I think I’ll try in the garage. Thank you so much‼️
