- Here's a peek at trainer Tom Davis's training seminar in Calgary, where he worked with a fearful lab named Ellie. Ellie became reactive after an unfortunate attack while she was muzzled. Tom helped Ellie’s owner build back her confidence and work on her reactivity by focusing on their bond. Subscribe to our channel to stay updated on the latest training tips and techniques!

Over time your teaching on observing the dog, getting timing right, when to reward and correct has been second to none for me. Your analogies are also so on point. You’re so clear. This video is such a good example of that. Can’t thank you enough for all your videos. I think this is what makes you a better trainer by far.
Ditto. Well said.
Thank you!!
Thank you for this!! Me and my 6-month-old Belgian Malinois were attacked two weeks ago. A dog got out of its backyard, crossed a bigger side street, and attacked us on the far side walk. My Mal was only 35 pounds at that point. The dog was a Great Pyranees/Husky mix that was between 80-100 pounds. Once the dog started attacking, I was knocked to the ground and was on my back. I started kicking because it was all I really could do. The dog finally let go of my pup and started to back away. I was able to stand up at that point. One of the owners finally appeared, and when the dog saw him, he started coming back at me. The owner grabbed the dog and put it away, jumped in his car, and left. I could barely breathe at that point. My pup was totally freaking out, and I was just trying to catch my breath. My chest hurt, and I have a cardiac condition, so I needed to calm myself. We still had a half of a mile to walk back home. The female owner stood in her yard sobbing with her head in her hands - neither owner ever saying a word to me. We walked back home, but I hardly remember it. I knew I was bleeding right away and so was my pup, but I couldn't figure out if I was bleeding from something on the ground or if I got bit. Once the swelling and bruising appeared, and I could see puncture marks on the underside of my forearm, as well as the obvious cut/puncture on the top of my forearm, I realized it was a bite. Animal Control came out and were all too familiar with the dog. It was not the first time this dog attacked someone. Plus, they live next to an elementary school crosswalk. The owners received 3 criminal citations and the dog was quarantined for 10 days (again). It might be over for them, as it's been two weeks, but me and my pup are not okay. Physically, we are fine, but emotionally/mentally, we are not. I knew we needed to get back out there walking, which we were doing daily up until the attack, but it's been a struggle. He was doing pretty well with not pulling on the leash, but now it's terrible. His tail is tucked the entire walk, and he's on such high alert that he can barely hear me or follow commands. He's just spun out. Plus, any time we hear a noise, my heart jumps, and I'm sure he senses it. I bought a few protection type items to take with us walking just in case, but I don't know when we will get over this. It's only been two weeks, but it sucks. I don't want my pup to be scared, and I don't want to be scared either. It could have gone so much worse than it did. Neither of us needed stitches, but I keep thinking about how badly it could have gone if the dog turned it's attention to me flat on my back. I'm not sure how to heal our emotional trauma.
Sounds like you both need a session with Tom and his team. Prayers for you both. Keep working on obedience at your house and backyard, if you have one.
OMG, my 6-month old Bouvier was attacked by a Great Pyrenees, too. If you live in Arizona and the dog's name is Bogart, he has a previous history of attacking x3 that I know of. The owners of these dogs need to get their dogs help. Enough of the denial already.
That’s terrible. Those owners are despicable humans to not try to help you. I’m so sorry that happened to you, and I hope you can get past it in time.
Your dog will be fine, SOCIALIZING your puppy is the best thing you can do. Bring your pup to a dog park, maybe walk your dog on the outside of the park until you meet a friendly dog being walked on a leash.
@@SuaveCityGear Yea, cause dog parks are a good place to socialize your dog..riiiight. WHat could go wrong..
Something I am constantly trying to remind myself is that for dogs words are most of the times just sounds, however the energy behind those words can make such an amazing difference when trying to communicate with them.
This dog lit up when her owner implemented your guidance about internal rewards, loved this video. Great work everyone
yes! Exactly!
So fortunate to have been able to attend this seminar with my rescue (Steve). I learned a lot & is fun to be able to see a recap! Thank you Tom, Taylor & Abbey!
That’s an awesome indoor arena! You should do something like that in mass, I’m sure a lot of horse people would offer their arena for that.
I feel for the first dog that was muzzled and couldn’t protect herself.
That is an equine riding arena. 🙂
It was great!
@@monicadavis914 lol I know I’ve ridden in them most of my life ;) did the dressage letters give it away? Lol
I learned a lot, thank you!
We've had our aussie pit since she was 6 weeks old. She is a really good gaurd dog to us and our property, I have been working on recall from your channel and it has helped alot! 😊
Love how your videos and work is evolving
Thank you for your input and coaching for the timing and enthusiasm for the handler. ❤
Love this! Trainer the owner is the key to everything.
Best in the world. Love hearing these stories.❤
Thank you once again for sharing such invaluable information
This was a great session, I loved follow through on the place/bed helping the humans get consistency was a great example of next steps.
One day I hope to
Be able to
Meet you Tom. You are so amazing.
love this!! my wife has had a dog longer than we have been married and babied her so now she's a little bit of a brat, and I love the emphasis on timing not only for the corrections but for the praise!
Great video! i love how you explain why the dog is doing what she is doing. it makes total sense but sometimes its hard to connect the dots and improve until you understand,.
Happy birthday Banks, and GREAT video, Tom! I've been telling everyone I know to watch your videos every time they ask me to train their dogs. 😊 Even told a 15yr trainer to watch, as she was using the slip collar wrong... 😳
You have given me ideas I hadn't thought of, considering my rescue shepherd had some pretty bad punctures in his throat from the previous owner. He's been coming along great in the three weeks I've had him! 🤗
You Tom are a very much appreciated trainer of humans 🤭 - keep up the good work, one human at a time 😋
Thanks for watching!
GREAT video....like in real live...there is always a time to Correct but never forget to Reward! BALANCED training.
Like your training 👍🙏🥰
Hey Tom love your videos and everything you do, and the there’s a link in the bio talking about a us seminar but nothing comes up do you have a us seminar coming up at some point thanks?
Your Giunises sir... Really like work❤
Hi, Tom 👋 This was a great one! When the camera caught that exact moment🙌🏻 1:56 brilliant
Ding!
As usual, some good points here...I keep watching. I just use "Yes!" for my reward word. Okay, sometimes I say "Good boy" or "Nice Job". We still deal with situations I can't anticipate like dogs coming up right behind us or around a corner I can't avoid. But your videos have helped tremendously. Thank you!
Great video! My dog is super stiffy and is always tracking instead of paying attention to me. He is a good and quiet dog. It is just like we are on two separate walks.
Preyyyyyy drive
Great video happy birthday banks
Thanks!
Man. Before the 4th we had a lot of thunderstorms, then all the booms starting the day before the 4th. People are still firing off fireworks 5 days later.
Our dog is terrified to go out. She will go, but basically crawls out does the business, then straight back in the house. Shivers with fear, hides in the bathroom.
I'll keep taking her for short trips around the yard,and hope for enough good experiences to overcome this.
02:02 I WANT that brand of the two *_INCREDIBLE and EXTRAORDINARY_* camping folding chairs in the back! Marvelous quality!!! Bravo!
What do you do if your dog just isn't listening to you? Lying down and come sometimes she just sits or stand there looking at me, this is when we're inside. She's a service dog so she behaves quite will, but lying down is really a struggle sometimes.
Tom, I’m retiring in 6 years and my kids have their own lives now. I work helping people and I want to do good after retirement. Do you have training for folks that want to work in a rescue shelter?
I've worked in a couple of shelters myself, and I'd caution you not to expect too much. A lot of shelters are "purely positive" and wouldn't allow you to use even the light, sensible corrections you see in this video. The shelters I've been at trained the volunteers in their own way, and if you tried to make ANY corrections they'd scold you for "not doing it right."
Having said that, there's a lot of other things you can do in shelters. They always need people for the dirty work. And if you work with cats you'll be okay.
I’ve been teaching my dog somewhat controversial things.
1) Since people in my country seem to be losing dogs everyday (slip its collar/harness then runs into the road) I’ve been teaching her to come check in with me once I pass a certain distance away from her. That’s conditioned in a purely positive way.
2) Sit-stay. She does this pretty well. She’s dog reactive so it’s definitely come in handy when I need to retrieve something at a dog friendly park and there are dogs around the bench where I put stuff down. She can chill in a field alone while I go retrieve them.
I don’t know precisely how to teach her to sit-stay for a distance beyond the “threshold” I taught in trick #1. If she breaks her sit to come to me when I get too far, I don’t want to stop rewarding it cause it will decrease her chances of becoming “another lost dog”. Is there a way to teach her when to hold the sit-stay and break the distance boundary; or is that a limit I need to decide, and stay consistent with for both? Eg I can increase that distance in #1, but whatever that distance is becomes the limit in her sit-stay?
Maybe use your "break" or "free" cue, whatever your release is, or come up with something different that marks being able to pass the boundary. Equally holding her accountable for breaking any cue or crossing without the release. Use a very clear marker for a mistake so it is sup;er clear (usually "no" or "wrong" or "wrong" or "may predict a correction) so you can also mark the behaviour from a distance. If it is a true safety issue, this is exactly when remote collar training becomes useful too.
Question about the prong; you use the 2.5.... smallest the store had was a 3.0, however before I even had the collar on Zane, when he heard the jingle of the chains, he started crying (whining). If you might recall, he's the ~9mo old that appeared to have had a prong grow into his neck. IS THERE a smaller than 2.5, as based against the 3.0 and his current circumstances, although the wounds have healed, even a 2.5 might be too much as I believe the scars run deeper than just skin deep.
He did not fight putting the collar on... I did show it to him, let him "check it out", let him know I'd never hurt him like he was hurt with it, and then he just became resigned and defeated, crying the whole time while I put the collar on. As I am wanting to start introducing him to the rest of the world, just a slip collar is not 'strong' enough. 😕
I've had him 3 1/2 weeks now, and he truly has come a long way - and has a ways to go, still.
SO! Bottom line, is there smaller than 2.5, would you suggest I even use prong at all, what else wou.d you recommend in lieu of a prong, etc.
😁
ps, reffered you to three more people, two working at petsmart, one of which runs a bully rescue. ☺
@@jendoodle thank you 🤗. I was considering the starmark, all the pet stores were out of stock.
As a Sable GSD, he's supposed to have a double coat, and while hair IS starting to grow on his throat (YaY!) it'll be a while until we'll know if it all grows back as it should be.
The best anyone (vet, groomer) has figured, is that the prong had been left on him and began to grow into his neck. 😒
I 'get' why he's reactive, and don't blame him, however as he continues to grow, I so want it 'fixed' now at 66 lbs, not waiting until he's full grown 😝 - I'm not that strong. 😋
Really appreciate your feedback!! 🤗
@@jendoodle Thought you might want to hear the latest update:
Last night he visited two stores with me, did GREAT! Reacted 50/50 with an Aussie (barked one time, ignored the other) AND has gained weight - he's now a (still thin) 73, up from 66 a couple weeks ago. 🤗
Thanks again for your advice, definitely going to get away from the prong which, while effective, still brings a yelp when using. The starmark WILL be gentler on his throat. Hoping to order it this weekend after a couple honey sales. 😋
Great improvement

If there was an bear attack and you only could save either an random human or your dog, whom would it be?
Reward and correction timing is so critical. The dog looked like it was looking for guidance Mom? Im trying to make a good decision, nope no response? Ok well guess in clear to grrrenope ok that hurt what was that for?
If I was a dog, I'd look at her.

Ugh. The human needs to be trained.
Anthropormorphic, we have to be this to get people to understand their dogs behavior. What their dogs are thinking. There is a difference between science and practice. Thank you, this is a great video. You are also a goof ball, but that works, it helps the people and that helps the dogs. Great job SIR!!!
