    This was the most difficult thing in all of my dog's training. She hated holding the item. Now she randomly hunts for stuff on the ground around the house and presents them to me trying manufacture rewards. As always, great video Nate.

    When do you normally add drive to the dumbell and back to the front position? I notice that Arhi is technically correct in this video, but needs to drive harder to and back.

    You explain this so well!
    I thought it was going to be superrr easy with my pup
    but she didnt even look at the toy, just at my face waiting for me to give her a treat (your engagement training is working !! A little TOO well in this case haha)
    Tried making the toy interesting but nope!
    Even marked and rewarded her when we were just playing but then she just forgets the toy and wants only food and starts offering other commands lol
    I'll update how our training goes once we figure it out. :D

    • @NateSchoemer
      @NateSchoemer  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hi! This video demonstrates what's known as a motivational retrieve. There are additional things you could try. For example, I've had success with starting with a bully stick. Since most dogs enjoy bully sticks, they are often willing to hold it in their mouth. However, it's important that the reward for bringing the bully stick to you is greater than the value of the bully stick itself; otherwise, the dog might prefer to keep the bully stick. Initially, you can also shorten the distance to build success early on. Check out this other video I have on the retrieve. Lastly, if all else fails, the final option is to teach a pressure-based retrieve. This method is not recommended for new trainers, as timing is crucial: th-cam.com/video/xkXxw1q-Ut4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=mX6JQKO5Nt0KRf5d.
      I hope this helps! :)

    Hey Nate, I have a question again^^ I have a nine week old Foxterrier Pup and when she gets fired up she obviously is all over the place, jumps in your face, bites you, your shoes, everything she can grab basically xd. Not a big deal tho, puppy stuff. But the weird thing is, she doesnt really care about toys, when I move them and try to make them interesting she jumps on them, chews for a few seconds and then ignores the toy again, so redirecting does not really work. I tried with many different materials, build tugs out of towels etc. she doesnt really care too much about that. I know all dogs age differently and toy drive can, and I'm sure will, pop up when she gets older, but is there anything I can do right now, other then moving the toy/ making it interesting and rewarding her everytime she ineracts with the toy, to make toys/ playing with me something fun for her? Or should I just wait and give her time to grow and maybe show interest in toys herself at one point?

    Hi Nate! Would be possible to add proper captions to your vids? AUtogenerated doesn't catch everything. I know it's a ton of extra work, but I really like your videos. However, I have that spicy ADHD/Autism combo and can't really process much of what you're saying without rewatching 10x over (exaggeration but you get what I mean) without having captions to aid my understanding. Dog training is currently one of my special interests, and captions would make stuff way more accessible for me, my ADHD/autism buddies, and those of us who are deaf or hard of hearing. Thanks!

    Nate, I am a training a 2 year old golden retriever & I need to complete the retrieve as a service dog task in the next month. I too am having the same difficulty with having him hold the dumbbell in this mouth for a short time. I wrote down all the steps in your video. He doesn't like when I use my hand to push his chin up and push his mouth down to hold the dumbbell. He is great at retrieving balls & does drop them near me, so he knows how to do this. I have lubricated the dumbbell with hotdog smell. Can you advise me please?

    Hello Nate, I've recently purchased a german shepherd puppy. I realize he doesn't even know his name yet at 9 weeks old. After watching some of your videos (a ton of them) to begin training as early as 8 weeks, I'm having a terrible time keeping his attention. At 9 weeks his main interest is chewing. He is like a landshark and will get energy bursts and then sleep. My hands look like i've been in a knife fight with an octopus. Still in process of crate training. I've only had him for 3 days as of 11 may 22. Trying not to get outa heart. Anything I could add to his attention training? I've watched yours, and added high value treats for calling his name "Zeus" and using the command "come". At times, it's like he doesn't even hear me. I know it's the puppy, and maybe the trainer here in me just needs reinforcement. lol I don't remember having such a time with my old black lab. I do enjoy your videos but talk about loosing heart after watching them. Seeing your results and and thinking of mine is different as night and day.

    • @lisathewhitewolf
      @lisathewhitewolf ปีที่แล้ว

      I absolutely would not start with "come" yet. Just start by rewarding him looking at you when you say his name. Once he's reliable with that, try something a little easier like "sit". Do NOT call your dog to come for now if you cannot enforce the command.
      A baby shepherd is going to be everywhere at once because they're so sensitive to everything around them. Be patient.

      No really , what he has already done before is doing a lot of the basic training and foremost he had built a great fun type relationship with his dog, where the dog likes to be / work with him. Most of the people don’t have a good relationship between them and their pet, and than frustration settles in if this don’t work as expected. Don’t get frustrated, go back to a work situation which the dogs enjoys and then slowly move forward to the next training task. It takes time, talent and some luck.
      Happy training.

      @@NateSchoemer I wasnt implying youre here, or making videos, to impress ME. It was a figure of speech. Like saying What really impresses me is a dog trainer working with difficult breeds with impressive results.

There are hundreds of Malinios with Obedience Champion titles and so few Bull Terriers you can count them on one hand.

      @@im160bpmplus Thank you for clarifying your perspective. While I can appreciate your passion for highlighting the challenges of training certain breeds, your comment seems to assume I’m unfamiliar with working with more difficult dogs-which couldn’t be further from the truth.
      If you’ve seen the show Rescue Dog to Super Dog on Animal Planet, you’ll know I’ve trained reliable retrieves with a wide variety of breeds, including a Golden Retriever-Rottweiler mix, a Great Dane, a Pitbull mix, a German Shepherd, a Shepherd-Husky mix, a Poodle mix, a Havanese, and a Lab mix. This isn’t just about “easy” breeds-these were rescue dogs, many with behavioral challenges, and yet the same principles applied to all of them, resulting in reliable retrieves.
      To suggest that mentioning "regardless of the breed" implies I don’t understand the difference between easily trainable and more challenging breeds feels like a reach. I’ve trained hundreds of dogs of all breeds and temperaments, and my experience has proven time and again that while every dog is unique, foundational training principles work when applied correctly.
      If the point of your comment was to highlight the skill it takes to work with difficult breeds, I agree-that’s part of what makes dog training so rewarding. But to dismiss my approach or experience based on assumptions feels more like a poorly disguised attempt to undermine the discussion rather than contribute to it. I hope this clears up any confusion.

      @@NateSchoemer I apologize for being rude, I was having an unnecessary dig and trolling,
      As a fellow trainer of 25 years I just think that there is a difference between unique individual dogs and dogs that are renowned tough projects. Mixed breeds are generally always easier than pedigrees and line bred dogs for conformation are specifically hard to train. Thats why I admire dogs like Bullogs, Frenchies and Bull Terriers along with Huskies etc that exhibit a high standard of achievements. It is truly impressive. I still have the passing comment, that if you really want to impress me, show me what youre doing with a Bull Terrier. A calm and stable BT is comparable to a superman Malinois. Not taking anything away from the breed, theyre amazing, thats why I dont think its so impressive to showcase sits drps and stay with them, they are capable of running for President of a country.
