After 2 ish weeks training my husky (11months old) he finaly doesn’t pull on leash after implementing training from your videos, he is a lot better on heel also. Thank you so much for your content, it’s easy understandable 🙌🏻
I watched a little older video a month ago, same lesson from Fenrir. Got a proper lead, and went to work, within half-hour my 3 year old 100lb black lab was walking almost perfectly. Now the whole family can walk him and hes a perfect gentleman, and his overall obedience has improved greatly. Hes always been an overall good boy. But now hes excellent and I have been following allot of Fenrirs vids and its been a new hobby to get my dog trained up. I can't recommend these guys enough to people.
Good boy heel I would use in a neutral voice. Your praising plus still asking too heel else dog thinks it's it can pull or get distracted now. Add break command when allowed sniff or play.
@@willathertoncaninetraining I wonder, however, if it would be better (more comfortable, avoid potential pain or harm to her throat) for her if I used a harness instead of the collar?
Hi Will, I have a question - do you have any advice (or maybe at some point could you do a video on, or do you have one I haven't seen) for walking a dog who doesn't have good heel walking trained when you're in a wheelchair? I have a lot of trouble moving around on my feet even for a minute or two, and so my dog gets a lot of time outside to run around in the yard but not a lot of time with me to explore the neighborhood (which used to be his favorite before my mobility decreased). Once I get my chair and I'm more mobile I'd love to start taking him out again but I'm worried about getting him better behaved from in my chair, because it could be bad if he took off and I became an unwilling charioteer. XD He's a pretty big cane corso/lab mix, and he's so much happier when he gets more exercise than I've been able to give him.
I barely understood anything all they wer talking about how leadership was important and the issues that dog had. No technique was mentioned and we didnt see the video of how they were correcting the dog. They showed video where the behavior was already corrected.
Just a quick question, what do you do when your dog keeps offering you heeling when on a free walk? I tell them to go free and run around, then they do that for a couple seconds, then come back. Praising just seems to bring them closer to heeling😅 Both are very used to run free on command, before heeling training.
How do in get my 15 month old Saint Bernard to engage with me. He won’t engage with me at all. Even trying your techniques. I’m kind of at my Witt’s end. 😡😱
All your videos are great but every video from every trainer i watch leaves out the actual coaching with the owner (specifically with the dogs male owner) and that’s mainly what i need and i think videos on that would really help a lot of pet owners.
Love your videos and techniques. Any tips for a Border Collie? When walking to the park to play fetch, she pulls the whole way there. On the way home she looks up to me and walks mostly without pulling.
@@christga100 The gentle leader helped a little but she's so excited walking TO the park to play fetch. My plan now is to just walk and not stop at the park to play fetch.
I've been searching the descriptions in all your videos, and cannot find an affiliate link or recommendation for an ecollar. Do you have a brand you prefer?
We are wanting to get a new puppy but we both work full time, would you say it’s fair to get a dog and if so how long would be ok before we can leave the dog at home along?
What happened to 'Eileen the Masfiff' videos? You made a few and then abruptly stopped. Many people asked what happened to Eileen and you would reply with a link to an non-existent Instagram page. Please update us on Eileen.
Just a bit confused because I want him to walk next to me but I also feel like dogs should be able to sniff as that is how they expire the world right ?
What will it take for you to help me with my dog with this exact situation she is an Akita cross pit and pulls constantly I’ve tried doing a few training exercises however it still goes on

Why are all dog harnesses slip on? We are so frustrated seeing this, please put clips on the neck portion. I know literally hundreds of owners who hate this style, dread taking it on and off and are forced to have an uncomfortable experience with their dog due to this. The straps are usually very hard to adjust, specifically when taking the harness off. I was happy to see you had your own line of products but was disappointed with the design. I was wondering if you could add some insight to your design choices? Mainly the reason for no neck clips and also the placement of the straps/adjusters on the mid section will absolutely cause chaffing? Genuinely curious, not trying to be a "know it all" or an "a$$hole". My girlfriend and I are currently researching and looking into creating our own line of products as after hundreds of hours of researching we cannot find a harness that meets our expectations. A harness should be: 1. Easy on and off ( Keep in mind some dogs hate things going over their head, no matter how consistent the training ) Hence the clips for the neck, its never sliding "over" the dogs head. 2. Comfortable ie ( no unpadded straps, protection from chaffing) 3. Ventilated/breathable 4. Fully adjustable 5. Front and back d ring 6. Reflective stitching 7. Stylish/multiple colours Trying to find one that meets all of these is nearly impossible.
What do you do when your dog just plonks its bum down and refuses to move? Whenever I try and train my golden he’s started sitting and looking at me like “absolutely not”
If he pulls his head out of his collar, I would recommend getting a martingale collar. As for sitting down and not getting up, maybe teaching him leash pressure would be good. Nate Schoemer is a trainer who has some good videos on how to teach that. I'm not a trainer, but getting a martingale collar and teaching my dog leash pressure has been really helpful. Hope this helps 😊
@@kaitlynb4201 he pulls through a martingale and won’t respond to any kind of pressure! The most I’ve had is the slip lead technique that this page suggest however I then have him sit down and refuse to move out of pure stubbornness and not wanting to play game
@@christga100 we will only go for 20 minutes ish as I don’t want him to lose attention span, it’s literally like he’s being stubborn and doesn’t want to learn how to walk properly
@@user-ll2iq9su3f Ok, I hope that the slip lead continues to help. I wouldn't always recommend treats or toys for walks because then the dog could become overly excited to walk well on the leash, but you could try using an extremely high value toy or treat to try to make it more exciting for him :)
This video is below your usual high standard. It's rather sketchy. And we wish you had shown more thoroughly how you got the dog to walk with his nose up, and not on the ground. Also, too much giggling; too much posing and posturing for the camera.
They are using a horrible leash, it’s one of those stabbing needle things… you guys. Disgusting. That’s why his tail is down. I have a Beagle, beagles are difficult. BUT that’s no excuse for torture.

So good to hear Ryan!!
Every time I say “good boy”, my dog seems to think that means “go faster and pull as hard as you can.”
Ahaha mine too!
Good boy heel I would use in a neutral voice. Your praising plus still asking too heel else dog thinks it's it can pull or get distracted now. Add break command when allowed sniff or play.
I’m thinking timing and redirection, needs to be tried.
Loved the “dual-perspective”. As a newbie, first time dog owner I’m learning a lot from your videos (as is my pup Oakley) Thank you both!
DYNAMIC DUO!! Steve was such a fun case 👏
Great to see both Will and Lane working with a dog!
I've been waiting for this one! Great work! 💙
This was amazing and we all learnt so much that day, again thank you so much for the opportunity walking is now a pleasure. #steve.the.beagle
Started your training w/ my new husky mix - after just 5 days of consistent calm work, the difference is astounding.
So good to hear Erin, well done for putting the work in!
@@willathertoncaninetraining I wonder, however, if it would be better (more comfortable, avoid potential pain or harm to her throat) for her if I used a harness instead of the collar?
Top, top video, from true canine professionals, but also showing that by following their methods, you and me can do it too!
Fantastic video, Thanks guys!

Love your way of training . So calm cool and collective 💪
That was fun and constructive, thanks! Imagine, a beagle with his nose to the ground 😂 Good job all around.
Does this work with a regular collar
Interesting but is that a half choke collar rather than a flat.
Just a quick question, what do you do when your dog keeps offering you heeling when on a free walk? I tell them to go free and run around, then they do that for a couple seconds, then come back. Praising just seems to bring them closer to heeling😅 Both are very used to run free on command, before heeling training.
It can be done with beagles, they is hope! Where do I do my pair of beagles off 🤣
I love the content but the prong seems to be sitting too low and lacks a backup. Backups are so important.

My puppy staff is 4 months old. Is it ok to use a slip lead on him?
Subscribed for a 2nd time, don't know why I was unsubscribed.

@@christga100 3. Very much a worker. Will fetch a ball or frisbee for hours per day.
@@christga100 not really an option where i live. I've been using a gentile leader and and going to try a slip leash.

Do you ever let them snif on the walk cuz mine has his nose down the whole time😞
