As a full-time RV nomad, this video represents how I love to spend most of my days if I can. Of course, the dogs and I do get into some trouble which you will witness in this video. I make mistakes and you will see how helpful Mr. Eko’s GPS tracker has become for our lifestyle. Even deep within the woods, it has provided me with a lot of assistance, safety, and security. 🌵🌲🐕🦺🐕 If you like this video, you might want to check out our Patreon page as well where I post updates and extra videos: patreon.com/GotOut Shown in this video: My Hat amzn.to/3BX6c7x Dog GPS Tracker 30% off link: tractive.com/r/KgU6ig Amazon link: amzn.to/4cMdd8n
When was a kid, my dog ran off exploring in the woods behind my house. Didn’t come back for three days. She was muddy dirty and had rubber bands tightly wound on her front paws. So I think she went thru some sort of abuse by someone, most likely kids. I was just glad she was able to escape to come back. My worst nightmare is the dogs to run off and I can’t do anything to protect them.
A little unsolicited dog training advice coming...LOL! If I'm not mistaken, Echo understands the "leave it" command. So, when he's focused on the deer, tell him to leave it, then YOU turn away from the deer and start walking. If he doesn't immediately follow you, give him a good solid yank on that leash. it's okay for him to notice the deer. It's okay for him to look at the deer for a few seconds. It's NOT okay to let him sit there hyper focused on them to the point that he's shaking from all the adrenaline that's building up in his system. He needs to learn what to do INSTEAD. ie: He sees the deer and he wants to chase them, but INSTEAD he's going to watch them for a moment and then return his attention to YOU. Staying WITH YOU needs to be more important to him than the deer because YOU are the "pack leader." Your leash length is good for a starting point. Use it to help him learn to follow your lead. Anytime his attention shifts away from you, turn and go a different direction. Make it HIS JOB to keep the slack in the leash so that he'll understand if he fails to notice you changed direction, he's going to get a correction, ie; a yank on the leash; how hard depends on how much he's not paying attention to you and is focused on something else. For example, you're walking and he stops to sniff the ground. You change direction and he doesn't immediately follow so you give a tug to remind him. But next time, he finds some deer droppings and hyper focuses on them. You change direction and when you get to the end of the leash, he resists the pressure because he wants to keep sniffing the deer droppings, then you need to yank on that leash so hard that he has to scramble to not fall down. He will quickly learn to NOTICE that you've changed direction and he will move to keep slack in the leash. When he's consistently responding with that leash, graduate him to a longer one, say 25 feet, and repeat the process. Then, graduate him to a 50' leash and when he's good with that, you can start testing him off leash in controlled environments where he can't get away from you. That would be a good time to put the shock collar on him, just in case you need to get his attention. The shock would be the equivalent of the leash yank. When he's doing well in the controlled environment, graduate to the uncontrolled environment. If he backslides, back up to the 50' leash and refresh his memory about what his priority is supposed to be (checking in with you and staying within a certain distance of you, regardless of all the temptations to ignore you and satisfy his own urges). Never let him sit there and stare at the deer like that because he's not focused on you if he's getting so charged up that he's quivering and his teeth are chattering. I guarantee the only reason he stayed put was because he knew he was on the leash. He needs a "psychological leash" that keeps him WITH YOU even when you don't have him on a physical leash. (Note added: tie knots in the long leashes every 3 feet so you have something to grab when needed and don't give your hands a leash burn...lol) Other than that, beautiful scenery shots! LOL
That’s a really good point to not let him freak out while watching the deer like that. I hadn’t really thought about it that way. I honestly appreciate the advice. My thought was just that since we encounter deer fairly infrequently, that when we do, I should use that opportunity to give him a prolonged exposure to the deer. He would eventually just chill out. But I really do see your point. I will give it a try next time . But, I did just shoot a video the other day and we encountered elk and cows and I hadn’t read your comment so I didn’t get a chance to employ the new technique.
@@GotOut Just a thought...it's deer season right now. Ask a hunter for a piece of a fresh hide to have around that Echo can smell (but not chew on). Just hang it somewhere outside, out of reach. (Keep it in the freezer to keep it from rotting...it will still stink when you bring it out). Eventually, he'll "get used to the scent" and be less reactive to it. I don't know how much it'll affect his chasing urge, but it might at least make the scent less interesting for him.
Such beautiful landscape. It’s good you have Eco how a leash because if any elk would show up they could hurt Eco. Eco calm down boy and enjoy your view! Ole Dodger doesn’t even care he’s just happy to be with dad. Have a wonderful morning and feel blessed throughout the day! Your videos make my day so Thank you!!!🙏
That dog is freaking smart as hell. I mean, at least he did go back to the camp, and then he knows what he did, so that he's so smart, he's so smart.I can't believe how smart he is
Ha ha! He’s sitting here with me right now. We are on the road traveling. I don’t know if I should tell him what you said or not. I don’t want him to get any ideas that it’s OK for him to run away again! 🌲🌵🐕🦺🐕
I'm guessing that you didn't notice what Echo was staring at. It was a Cantaloupe Patch, that's why the Deer were there. It's where The 🦌Deer & the Cantaloupe🍈 Play...
What an awesome video with all that lush background and epic vistas to take in. And of course ‘da boys’ doin their thing.. those close-ups of Echo were off the charts. He was totally intense! Haha :-) Thanks for an enjoyable evening of adventure. Scotty P Columbia Missouri
Yeah, it’s true! We should give Dodger a break, though, because he has already taught Eko almost everything that he knows. He actually trained Eko more than I did. 🌵🌲🐕🦺🐕
Please keep in mind that this is the time of year that deer are entering their breeding season, and a buck will get very protective of his "harem". Watch yourself, don't want to see anyone get hurt. And believe me, a deer can inflict serious injury or worse.
Oh man you’ve got me so wanting a Fall trip up to Mt Adam’s but I think it might be too late? I’ll just enjoy your vid with the boys as always, Chris in Post Falls
@@GotOut But arent you already gone from there? I don't blame you. I would join your Patreon but I don't /can't / want another monthly bill. Ya dig? Thanks man. I'm 65/ just bought an RV and gonna head out soon. Music and my dogs are life. Maybe we'll head into each other. I'm in Southern Cal right now. Gorgeous weather and landscape.
I’ve looked at this tracker before but I’m confused by a feature/function so maybe you can clear up my confusion. It says you need cell service. Is that for registration and getting your phone paired with the collar attachment or for when you’re looking for your dog, do you need cell service? So if it’s the latter, what do you do when you’re out of cell service range? Just hope for the best? Hoof and holler?
You need your phone and it needs cell service. The tracker uses any cell service in the area and satellites. If there is no cell signal in the area it won’t track. I usually camp in areas where my cell phone gets a signal anyway so the tracker has always worked for me. 🌵🌲

Hello GO I can tell you're sweet little dog don't like deer 🦌 you're so right anyway I really enjoy watching You're camping video
He just wants to play with them. 🌵🌲🐕🦺🐕

@@GotOut Whew! Glad you weren't offended. The long silence made me wonder if I'd over-stepped.... LOL

You three boys are a match made in heaven .
Haha hey thanks for watching us! 🌲🌵🐕🦺🐕

So glad Eko came back on his own! I bet he would be a great hunting dog.
Yeah he probably would be 🌲🌵🐕🦺🐕
What a funny noise he’s making
That dog is freaking smart as hell. I mean, at least he did go back to the camp, and then he knows what he did, so that he's so smart, he's so smart.I can't believe how smart he is

Omg!
Bro, I am seriously blown away by how good the cinematography is!
That means a lot coming from you! Thanks! 🌲🌵🐕🦺🐕
Out. It's. But. Season that's why they're all feisty
Oh! That’s a good way to describe how they were behaving! FEISTY! 🌵🌲
Eco got some hound dawg in him!!
I think so! 🌵🌲🐕🦺🐕
What an awesome video with all that lush background and epic vistas to take in. And of course ‘da boys’ doin their thing.. those close-ups of Echo were off the charts. He was totally intense! Haha :-)

Wow! Glad you tagged along, Scotty! 🌲🌵🐕🦺🐕
I see more cinematic work in your shots. Good choice and wonderful views with the drone footage. Makes me proud!
Thanks for noticing! I’m always trying to improve the videos for everyone… including myself! It’s a lot of fun!🌲🌵🐕🦺🐕
Very nice video. Echo wanted to chase the deer bad lol Good job
Thanks!
Wow! Thanks, Debbie! Doing a lot of driving right now so I can use the gas money! 🌲🌵🐕🦺🐕
@ always welcome. 😊
BTW, nice video, good scenery, see you're using that drone! haha
Well I aged another year watching the kids and deers 😅
Haha that’s pretty funny. Imagine me before we got the tracker !!! Ahhh so stressful. 🌲🌵🐕🦺🐕
Dodger needs to tell his brother to behave for Daddy and stop running away.
Yeah, it’s true! We should give Dodger a break, though, because he has already taught Eko almost everything that he knows. He actually trained Eko more than I did. 🌵🌲🐕🦺🐕
Look at me dad, I’m so cute!
Please keep in mind that this is the time of year that deer are entering their breeding season, and a buck will get very protective of his "harem". Watch yourself, don't want to see anyone get hurt. And believe me, a deer can inflict serious injury or worse.
Yeah that little buck did actually seem kind of not intimidated by us! 🌲🌵🐕🦺🐕
how is the battery today? please charge the battery!!
It was honestly the first time I forgot to charge it. I usually recharge it when it’s at 30%. It lasts a long time! 🌲🌵🐕🦺🐕
Oh man you’ve got me so wanting a Fall trip up to Mt Adam’s but I think it might be too late? I’ll just enjoy your vid with the boys as always, Chris in Post Falls
Oh yeah it’s getting cold and snow is in the way! 🌲🌵
Another fun video but I wish you'd say where you are. I'd like to go camp there it looks amazing. Thanks.
It’s the cascades mountains. I don’t usually give away my camp locations on TH-cam. I do give more details if people ask on Patreon. 🌵🌲

what is following you ? a drone?
It was Bigfoot. I was scared at first, but then I just handed him the camera and he was cool with that. 🌵🌲👣
It's. Rut. Season

You get a lot more peace of mind training them to not take off like that.
