  • Learn how to train your Great Dane to properly walk on a leash. Avoid miscues such as pulling, lunging, or walking out of place. In addition to this video, more details can be found in our article at greatdanecare.com/leash.
    I had a bit of a brain fart in the video and said that the long line leash was 40 feet long instead of its actual 20-foot length! Link to the one I use below.

    I use the alternating pacing too! Works so well for building relationship and focus on me during a heel.

    So helpful! My dane drug me across our backyard the first day we brought her home.. (stray cat in the yard 🙄)
    They're so crazy smart though, and it only took that once.. . If she feels any resistance now, she slows and turns to check.

    • @leslietoms610
      @leslietoms610 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      How is Moose doing? We adopted a rescue last year in September. We're unsure how old Jupiter is, we were told anywhere from six months to a year and six months. At her last vet appointment (about 6 months ago), she was approx. 130lbs and about 32" at the shoulder. She's grown since then.

    My Dane is 4 and he's very loyal but gets so excited for walks he jumps on everything and pulls to see people which for them is terrifying
    He's also kinda of protective so it's not so great around others. Tips for this? He's a "smaller" dane 140lb

  • @bjaskiewicz

    Very helpful. I have two other dogs - I’ve been walking our Great Dane with the other two, but that tends to teach bad behavior! I’m going to start solo walking our GD for training purposes.

    • @GreatDaneCare

      Agreed. I’d walk them solo when it’s time for training

  • @jaydenbean3065
    @jaydenbean3065 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    With mine, I would take him for walks an at first he would pull a little bit but I’d just hold the leash close enough to where we were walking next to eachother. After a while I’d let it go to abt 4 feet or so & he’d pull a bit. I’d lightly pull it back an tell him with me & he’s almost 3 now an walks behind me😂😂

    Our Great Dane is 5 months old and SUPER excited to go for walks (uhm, runs), especially after 5 weeks of lockdown. This video is of great help and we will start training him.
    What I do want to know is, how do you stop your GD from walking in front of you at home? My GD walk in front of me, stops and waits to see which way I'm going. Only problem is, I can't go anywhere because he's blocking my way. Is there a way to train him not to do this?

    So I’ve just started reading your Dane handbook. My wife and I have had dogs our whole life german Shepherds border collies and now our first Great Dane. I am now disabled and run our border collies leased to the sides of our golf cart. (We live in a retirement community that allows carts) we are aware that strenuous exercise after eating is no good do you have any thoughts about it otherwise? Thanks for any help.

  • @clintgorman8436
    @clintgorman8436 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    So my wife and I have a male and female border collies both fixed and at an early age. This maybe in your book that we purchased if so apologies for jumping the gun. What age would you neuter a male and if later why? Thanks for the time and videos.

  • @zeusduece5617
    @zeusduece5617 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I do love the idea of a control movement at crosswalks but a sit command is often uncomfortable for our Danes, and they often prefer do to go in full down position. In your video Gus doesn't actually sit so sort of supports our theory. This is why why crossing intersections I prefer a simple stop command. Our Dane stays at our hip...no movement until we give the a heel command to move forward. Big boi is standing straight up, fully watching us and has no need for the extra effort of half-sitting.

  • @deniseferguson9608

    I have an 18 month old Daniff who is still frightened by strange adults. If out on a walk she will hide behind me, no growling or whimpering though. And even with my parents she is still super shy. She has finally started to stay still or approach my mum for a pat, but tail between her legs. With my father though she won’t stay still or approach him at all. I’ve even tried giving my parents treats to try and bribe her, but she won’t have it. However, whenever my children have friends over, whilst she doesn’t behave in the same super comfortable way she does with my children, she readily approaches and enjoys physical contact. Is this normal? Is there something I can do to make her more comfortable around strange adults?

    My Great Dane pulls so hard the second I take him out that he pulled me on the ground over 15 feet behind him, I lost a lot of skin on my legs, face, and wrist was bruised, I could not let go of the leash because it got wrapped around my wrist, I was so bloody.
    I do not know what to do. I will probably have to rehome him.

    • @GreatDaneCare
      @GreatDaneCare  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It just takes LOTS of time and practice! Do short sessions, and make sure to reward them afterwards so that they associate a positive outcome with the leash.

    Hi Zack & Gus! My new puppy will not come out of the crate if he knows its time for a walk. (He will come out for food, play or snuggle time though) Please help! I don't want him to be afraid of walking on a leash, but also I wont be able to carry him down the stairs and outside much longer. Accidents are not really a problem as long as I bring him outside in time, but getting him to go out willingly with me is the challenge. I've tried high value treats and its not enough, Any tips would really help! Thanks :)

    • @GreatDaneCare

      Try different high value treats, a favorite toy, and an over the top playful attitude. The latter being the most important 😉

    he is still to hyper.. at the start of walking absolutely exited ..and wild... it goes down some after a while.. but he is still to short to see my hand gestures .. as I try to signal him
    to slow down ..there is plenty OF distractions..plenty of tips out there for deaf GD..but nothing for a small pup.. will have one soon also down the street from us a Neighbor ...... while we got a Network of Now old Great Dane Friends ..to place every WHITE PUP
    so please if you could find some training tips for deaf and little jung GD...while we need to start training as early as possible..
    mine..Syrus...knows now..
    drop it ..sit..stay..eat ..House .stop.. pee..come..

      Only after (1) the other dogs owner has approved them greeting each other and (2) I have released my dog from a heel, sit, etc... position. The second point is key because they should only be greeting other dogs after you have approved as well. Of course, all of this goes out the window at the dog park ;)

      It's not a matter or respect - it's simply following the law. Dogs are required by law to be on-leash in many public areas these days.
