I have been watching your videos for a long time and you are amazing. After watching and learning and researching prong collars I finally decided to give one a try to help with my dogs random reactivity. The handling I learned from you paired with the collar has been a game changer. She finally understands bc I’m finally able to successfully communicate with her. Our relationship has improved so much, and her behavior is better on and off leash. She’s more relaxed and calm, she’s happier on walks, and I finally have confidence while walking her. Yesterday on our walk she saw a dog she has a history with being aggressive and reactive towards. She looked at the dog, wagged her tail, didn’t lunge or bark like the normally does, and before she could even build I was able to tell her “this way” and she immediately followed me without any leash pressure or correction at all. Last time we encountered this dog, she was in such a frenzy with barking and growling that she nipped me on the leg as I tried to redirect her. That was the moment I knew we had to do something different bc I was worried about that happening again and didn’t want to not be able to walk her. A week ago we got a herm sprenger and I really wish we had gotten it sooner. Thank you Tom ❤️
Jade, I am so happy for you. When we put these videos out, it's hard to say what impact it has on dogs. I am so glad you told your story, I appreciate the feedback.
Yes yes yes. 1000xs yes. Same same same. I didn’t know about certain breeds. You don’t know until you know. Tom and my trainer here at home have completely changed my life. Bless you!!!!!!!
he is truly wonderful. I love learning from his channel
That’s awesome. I hate that people refuse to educate or even hear the other side and just scream at u saying I’m abusing my dog. Sometimes it’s the only thing that does help change behavior and give a good life to a dog.
You have said Soo many comments that are Key to all of this success …First and Foremost “ Communication” !!! It is Litteraly the KEY to master all issues with dogs! Secondly.. You mentioned that “ Your” confidence went up, and ever since she’s been much more relaxed around you,… this is also another Important factor! You are now “leader” quality and therefore is Looking at You for clear and consistant direction which u are now giving if she is responding the way she is! People don’t realise juuuust how many mixed signals they give their dogs and then wonder Why they have issues w this or that etc etc .. ! Dogs Need Direction and they also “Seek” it! I always say “ You want to Teach a dog what u “ Want” out of it as opposed to what u “Don’t” want … cuz dogs don’t “learn” from Negativity! When they receive Positive feedback, you can be sure they are gonna want to repeat the same behaviour ! It’s up to us to teach them exactly “what” that behaviour is! I always say it takes about 3 days for a dog to Learn a new command and “get” it… The first day you show them and practice .. second day you go over what u learned the day before.. and day three u repeat to ensure the dog got it ! Keep up the good work !
To those of y'all saying Tom needs his own TV show - no he doesn't. I've worked in the TV industry for the last 7 years and a TV deal [unless it's a miracle] would give Tom significantly less control over his style, content and audience interaction. Broadcast media is not cut out for personal touches, authorship and audience curation. Tom has worked really hard at creating this thing we all love so much and I'd hate to see a TV executive or broadcaster try to tell him how to do it. He has autonomy and ownership on RUclips [although it's not a perfect platform] and we in a way have access to him. Keep being you dude.
ty for this!
I always say, “He DOES. It’s right here!”
Television as we know it is archaic.
Remember when TV was crucial? Yea… me neither.
You just wanted to tell us you worked in tv lol
Your emphasis on its their job to protect the dog is so often missed. It’s usually to protect everyone from the dog. Another beautiful dog that you’ve given hope to.
And when we approach every situation when the dog is aggressive with the attitude and intent that WE ARE IN CHARGE and send that feeling to the dog of "Good dog, take a break, I've got this and you can relax", it allows the dog to be more comfortable and happy with its place in the pack. This is OUR world. They don't understand it completely and they KNOW they don't have the skills to run the show. (Unless the dog has been successfully feral for some time, lol!, and then they can have a bit of a cocktail "I don't need you to tell me what to do...I do what I want...and I GOT this". I had one of those and I just made it clear that was fine but I was still boss, so take a break....this is MY problem to deal with. Lol
Love the mindset when Tom used “Direction over Correction” decompress using tune-up of “Engagement vs Avoidance”. The example of turning your whole body “hey, you forgot your phone”. These training tools are so helpful!
Happy it helps :)
Dogs are typically made out to be the protector of their owners, so I absolutely love that you’re getting people to understand that the owners have to be their dogs protectors too. Awesome work AS ALWAYS!
❤️❤️👍🏻
@@tomdavisofficial you are great
Very true! When the dog thinks they have to be the protector, they are always looking for danger. When they know their owner will step up and handle the “danger”, they finally relax and focus on enjoy their time!
His first reactions to the vibrate was interesting and cute. Clearly trying to see where it was coming from, but not concerned or scared. Just "wait what?"
He's a good boy
Thats right!
My Rottweiler loves his ecollar, he’s always excited and engaged. However, he’s TERRIFIED of the vibrate feature, I wasn’t expecting that! Instead, we use a level seven stim (out of 100), and he just cocks his head and eagerly waits for his next job.
OMG, the "what" after the hood thing was a laugh out loud moment. So good!
Duuuude that blew my socks off
It was gold
Having never heard of this I went to look for it, and Amazon actually sells 'snoods' for dogs, for anxiety relief, and to protect their ears during bathing and grooming. I can kind of see how it would work, a bit like blinders on a horse I suppose, but man it looks weird.
This hit an emotional spot for me. My husband and I are going through the exact same thing with our dog. It is extremely difficult. So happy for them and can't wait for our own turn!!
Tom Davis is amazing and I can also recommend you Beckmann‘s dog training on RUclips. You won’t regret it! I watch these too all the time and my dog has gotten so much better !
👍🏻👍🏻
You’re not alone. This video hit home for me. We’re young and want kids and need to get our buddy to a better place. It’s a work in progress, but we’re working on it daily. I almost cried at the end when she says we just wanted someone to tell us it was us not our dog.
I really enjoy your videos, and I dont even have a dog
10:20:- EXCELLENT use of Body blocking while Directing in an opposite direction !! For those wondering what I mean by that, if u pause at 10:20, you’ll notice that as the owner is turning around. He is also positioned in a way that allows his entire body to “block” so-to-speak, the dog’s view and that “thing” that he’s focused on, all the while redirecting him at the same time , which is keeping the dog calm as he has to focus on walking alongside his owner as opposed to the distraction! ❤
This video made me cry 🥹
Such a sweet beautiful boy! He did so so good 🙌🏼
Proud of the owners and Wrigley!!
This video is now one of my favourites, packed full of value and giving the E collar the right reputation it truly deserves. Amazing work I hope to follow in your footsteps (I'm one of Will Athertons academy members) THANK YOU TOM!!!
The way Tom said "WHAT" at 2:30. 😆😆😆😁😄
Everytime I see an episode like this where the owners lives have to be different and they are so stressed and then Tom shows them they can fix it within like 5 mins of starting; I always cry lol because Im happy that they can start to enjoy their dog and live how they want.
Keep up the amazing work Tom you are a hero and inspiration ❤️
Haha literally same, I cried on & off during the video just thinking about a.) The relief the owners must feel and b.) So happy for the goodest boy who's just been scared this whole time 🥺 now he can finally feel more confident, secure, and comfortable 😭
❤❤
Love that the owner said that we wanted someone to tell us it was us, not the dog. Most just want to blame dog. This dog should do well !
Exactly what I was working on with a German Shepard today. Reactive to other dogs. Taught redirection and corrections and when to use which. Over correcting is something a lot of my clients are guilty of and also failing to pay the dog for good behaviors (affection/toy/treat).
I was sad when I heard they covered the dogs senses .. but what you do sir is gold. I appreciate your work and how passionate you are.
Lol why is my reactive pitbull VERY interested in this video. 😂 🐕
Lol take notes!!!
My cat is also very interested in this video. 🤣
@@cesarvazquez1180 I think she heard the barking and thought "STRANGER DANGER" she is so ridiculous when other dogs are barking.
It probably wants a Pit stop
That dogs a mutt not a pitbull
I’m so happy to see an effective “dog trainer” and owners that are aware they are in over their heads and willing to do whatever is needed to make the relationship work and be a positive existence for the dog. (Side comment..the handsome pittie is lame on his hindlimb, maybe check for cruciate rupture). I love your videos and seeing the dogs happier in the end and the owners hopeful. Amazing job all around.
Tom, you never cease to amaze me(and a lot of others). You are so tuned in to both the dog and their handler and read the issues instinctively.
With that being said, what always shines through is that you are determined to be fair to the dog first of all!
That may be the best lesson any of us take away from your videos. Thank you, you truly make a life and death difference in the lives of dogs every day!
ty so much ❤
Absolutely everything about this video resonates... a fearful dog needing the right type of training for his particular needs, a great trainer and devoted, determined owners 💜
Who else watches these videos despite not having a dog?
I try to learn more about dog & human behaviour after being afraid of dogs for a while. When I was 6 years old, a neighboor set his huge dog on me, laughing all the way while the dog was chasing me down the street. I managed to climb up a wooden plant stand that was 3 meters high and the dog "only" caught and bit my shoe as I was pulling myself up there. I was fearing for my life in this moment and after this traumatic incident it took me years to regain trust towards most dogs and their owners.
It's comforting to see you care so much about working out the issues of these families makes me hopeful that most owners want to be responsible.
ty!
Great job. So glad these folks got the help that they needed. You understanding and communicating to them saved this dogs life.
Tom Davis legit makes me cry.
You so often bring tears to my eyes❤ The level of compassion and understanding is Outstanding and something I totally pray to provide for mine and others 🙏 ❤
So many of his videos he relates dog training to horse training. I love this! As a horse trainer, I was oddly lost and overwhelmed trying to train my HUGE, rambunctious dog. When he relates this training to horses, it makes so much sense to me. Even changing directions, doing a 180 at the walk to get the dog to focus on you, is exactly what we call roll backs with horses. Thank you!
Always interesting to see what these things look like in a different breed. You usually get folks bringing the GSDs. Love the change that happens so quickly, for the dog and owners.
Love the explanation on what the purpose of the turn is. You’re not running from the problem (another dog or person) but you’re keeping your dog engaged!
Correct!!
An “aha” moment for me too!
This video is full of especially important details that make the difference between a technique working or not working. Timing and energy are SO key here and Tom really hammers emphasis onthe important details where many go wrong in their training and end up with mediocre results. ✌️💗💗💗 Ty Tom for NOT hoarding the keys to successful dog training just to get clients. I see too many ppl doing exactly that to get business and idol worship from their clients. Tom seems really intent on sharing the most important parts of training commonly missed. Ty Tom! Forever a fan!🤙
"Your job is to protect your dog." Nailed it!! Mine wears a muzzle out in public, because you just never know when someone will run up and try to pet him and what not.
You're great Tom!! Have a rescue pittie myself and you're the only person making videos online that I've found that explains things so simply and matter of fact. Just watching your vids has helped me with my dog tremendously.
❤❤
Wonderful to see. This is the best way to train I think. The doggie is finally showing the world his true self. His humans are outstanding as they have stepped up and not let their dog down. Of course there is a great dog trainer who make all of this happen. Thank you. May you please take care and stay safe.
Amazing! Tom takes such an individualized and realistic approach which speaks for his effective outcomes
Hi Dana your so pretty
I don't even have a dog and I love watching these and learning
I also think we should command this couple for not just “giving up” on the dog! While their approach ( complete avoidance) might not have been the right way to go… At least they have put some time and effort into following through their Responsibility to their dog! Thankfully they were able to find the RIGHT TRAINER to Help them !!!!
I feel so bad for that couple that they were scammed by so many trainers before this... but happy they finally found a solution for their pup! He's a good boy ❤️
Kudos to Tom 3 minutes in. You can see how he was like "That's a stupid training method" but he is so professional that he stopped himself because what matters most is helping these people, not nit picking others methods.
Bravo Tom
What I like is he was realistic with the owners. He definitely gave them the knowledge and the tools to continue on effectively
8:31:- SO Many things to unravel here! LOVE how you have the Owner Handle their dog the Entire time for one and have “them” get the hang of things while observing you, Love how, even though I know that you yourself have no problem w having him take treats directly out of your hand, you still, out of respect for the Owners and to ease their own fears, opt to do it the “safe” way , and all the while continuing to have Them handle their own dog! Everything I am seeing is Just 👌👌👌
I feel so sad when I see these dogs suffering. What nice turn around for him! I'm so happy to see owners like this that don't give up on their dogs, and are willing to learn and work. Tom, you provide such a meaningful service for dogs and their owners. I especially appreciate your ability to individuate the training for each new dog. Keep up your good work! You are needed!
Another great video! Just great!! The owners were also amazing. I hope they keep up the great work
They are amazing!
It literally brings me to tears (of happiness) to see people actually give a shit about their dog. I volunteer at an animal control and see so many dogs given up on, dumped, abused, forgotten. I started training my new pup recently and it was amazing being in a group class of people who genuinely love their dogs.... It makes me so happy and it's incredibly refreshing in comparison to when I'm at animal control.
I love this! Reactive dogs deserve a safe and fulfilling life. Way to go mom, dad, and Riggs!
I have learned so much over the last couple of years of watching Tom. It has shaped my cane corso to who he is now, a dog i can take anywhere and not worry about reactivity or obedience.
good trainer good owners love the saying protect your dog
Very educational video.. thank you Tom and to the parents of the dog for sharing..
Thanks for watching!
Great job owners! Lucky doggo to have you both.
It's always a shame to hear how caring owners are let down... they are very fortunate to have found you, and that you were available to offer guidance.
I’m just as grateful for them!
These are by far the most incredible videos to watch for anyone trying to train their dog
❤❤❤❤
Hey Tom! Good job on today show my friend! I can't wait to be able to help shelter dogs and save them all! Good job man. 🤘
I think is this my absolute favorite video. Thank you
Hi Tom!! I love watching all your videos, especially when they help me train and tune up my dogs.
I adopt from my local Sheriff's office and I just adopted a mini poodle (I currently have a Shih Tzu mix) who is a sweetheart, but has had no training that I can tell. I know I will be remembering what I have learned from watching you. I also know that if I have problems, I can probably find something close if not exactly, covering the issue I am having from your previous videos.
Thank you so much for your teaching style and techniques, I am sure they help so many people learn just like they have and will continue to help me.
God bless and have a great weekend!!
I like to watch Tom break into the dogs psyche and bring out their best. 🥰
Tom and team, thank you for everything you do for these animals.
Hi Rachel your so pretty
Great video as always. Really liked "Direction over Correction" and "Engagement vs Avoidance". The overall production of your videos always seems to be getting better. Kudos to your whole team!
This guy is soooooo good. I like his ability to refine and approach every dog uniquely. I just have a pet peeve wit the higher pitch "dog/baby voice" 😅
You're production quality just keeps going up! Great video on the ecollar, always love the Lakota clips, and good catch Tom. I just got some swag, your biothane lead, and the ecollar. So glad I was finally able to make a purchase. Love the coat and the ecollar has been a game changer with my now deaf dog. She was offleash (sorta) for the first time in a long time.
Only 3 sessions so far cause she sadly is an hour away living with my parents (I couldn't find a dog friendly apartment in my town), but I can already see her getting it. Been teaching her the stim means come to me. It's a slow process but I'm hopeful she'll be a pro by fall and we can enjoy beach walks and light hiking together again with a little more freedom on her part :)
Anyway keep up the amazing work you and your team are doing and I can't wait to join the members club again once I'm back to work this fall
I share your videos with my family and friends who struggle with their dogs. You're doing great things, Tom!
I recently adopted a corgi from a parent at the dog daycare I used to work for and I’ve been working on his reactivity and I love to study your videos and see how I can improve my training
Hope it helps!
@@tomdavisofficial It’s definitely helping!
this was a fantastic example of what I see every week. I will be forwarding this video to several of my clients who are "resistant" to training with consequences! Positive reinforcement is terrific but you need to break the behavior and redirect and e collars are a great tool for this. Awesome video!!! Thank you for posting!
Hey
Hi Christine your so pretty
What an incredibly valuable video. So many great tips, distinctions, nuances. Huge thanks!
Really like the perspective...engagement and attention vs avoidance. So appreciate the understanding that it is our responsibility to advocate for our pets.
What a great approach. You are amazing. Again, thank you!
Love seeing these dogs progress! Do you get updates on past clients? Would live to hear how they are doing. 🙂🙂
Sometimes
Great work. Yeah he is stressed, but you are getting him to work through it. I hope the owners keep it up.
This is amazing! I have an Australian shepherd that reacts the same way to people and we have the same story of training. This gives me hope and reassurance that I can use an e collar without hurting him
👍🏻👍🏻
This made me tear up. This was so awesome to watch!
Another beautiful ending to a story of a beautiful pit Bull. Direction over Correction👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️❤️
Yessss
It's a mutt ...breeds are purebred and cost money
I wish I would have watched these videos when I had our dog Indy. He was attacked by a neighborhood dog a couple times and became very leash reactive. We did some training with him , but it was more positive only and tried redirecting but with minimal corrections and only on a front no pull harness. If i had used a prong or e collar in think it would have been what he needed. He loved for 12 yrs this way, was a sweetheart with us and our other dog. But we were always fearful on walks or at campgrounds. He passed away last year and we have a new Aussie that we are training with a balanced method including a HS prong and just got A 280C that I am introducing with the low level conditioning. Keep the videos coming!
7:53:- I’d like for everyone to pay attention to the complete Shift of Behaviour in Wrigley and how he is now actively “seeking” “direction” from Tom as opposed to fearing him! He’s learning that he’s doing “Something” good cuz he’s beeing rewarded… and trying to learn More of what “that” is! He is Fully Engaged and giving his full attention! It took him less than 5 mins to get that dog’s attention! Thiiis is WHY I absolutely Looooove what I do!!! ❤❤❤
So excited to see the whole video on the membership club NO BAD DOGS 🐶
Hi Christina
Great video like how the remote collar was incorporated in helping the dog and owners!🙌🙌
Love your work!! I was anti prong and the shock collar till I saw how it was used!! Brilliant!!
Saw you and your pup on GMA this morning. You both did great and probably taught a lot of people the basics of dog training. Well done young man.
"what"!! That reaction said it all Tom. It's exactly what I was thinking too! You handled that like a champion though. I however would not have. "let's take away 2 of the dogs major senses so he is more scared than he has ever been n then he will be well behaved "!
Auwwh love the intro tom!!! Totally invokes the spirit of hope and beauty!!!!
You popped up today on my explore page and I’m glad I’ve found your page! Love your methods and Wrigley and his owners QOL is going to be so much better now!
🙏🏻
love seeing the progress Riggs makes in such a short time!
The more I watch your video’s, the more I learn and the more I wish I had started working with dogs a lot sooner, watching your videos a lot sooner and had the opportunity to come visit and attend one of your sessions. I wish I had half of your talent.
You do an amazing job with these dogs and helped me out with my fox terrier thank you so much Tom
You are the best, I wish all trainers were like you
cant thank you enough for all you do. truly amazing just to witness but man i am so determined to work with you one day!
I absolutely love watching your videos Tom. You do such amazing work helping these dogs out 😌 I don't own a dog, but I tell people about your work and to watch you. There is a big change is Wrigley. Hopefully his owners keep up with the new training techniques. "Good boy".. and "good man" made me smile so much.. Well done and keep up your amazing work!! Best wishes, from Co Dublin Ireland ☘️🙂🇮🇪
Hi adwina your so pretty
This video is a great example of how clear communication and expectations can change everything! Plus a fabulous catch! Also is that a starmark collar??
Yes
Hi Maria
Another excellent episode. Thanks Tom and staff.
Thanks so much!!
Bro this man is the best dog trainer, I don’t care what anyone says
Ty so much for your content has helped me and my pups alot
Happy it has!
I'm happy to see a longer and another successful video!
You have done a fantastic job with this dog Tom love ❤️ your videos
Since finding your channel I have learned a lot about dogs with reactivity problems. I myself have one of my own. He's a 1 and a half year old standard American bully. He's attacked our older female dog 3 or 4 times out of the blue.... He's mostly good with her but I don't know what it is he just snaps on her. He's also bitten me before but didn't draw blood. I love him to death.. I've had him since he was 5 weeks old from breeder In North Carolina which I myself live in Massachusetts....I've never had a dog like him before..... your videos are so amazing 👏 Thank you for training to ones who others think are untrainable.... Which in my case I've been told by a local trainer that I could just have a "bad dog" when talking with her over the phone..... GOD bless you and your family
5 weeks are too early. They learn bite inhabition from their mother and siblings at that important stage in puppy hood. I hope you get help for your dog and everything will get better.
This was such a good video Tom and it was very helpful and shows that advocating for your dog makes all the difference. And qwesome catch/ throw 😊 #nobaddogs
Glad it helped!!
Amazing video, just another video that shows how Tom’s methods just work.
12:36- If u both walk during peak hours , I would start by taking him for just a quick potty break instead of the usual walk time and try to switch your walk time to an hour or so later/earlier, so u can ease your way into redirecting and once you get the hang of it, then you can go back to your regular walk times as it’s no longer going to be an issue at that point ( at least it shouldn’t be )
Well done, Tom as usual! You are amazing.
Thank you and everyone involved, for all of these videos and lessons. The kind teachings, the straightforward advice, the e-collar. I've been watching stricter trainers and been feeling so...bad...like I'm getting scolded but also like I need to be more strict on my dog instead of more engaging and more confident and more loving and understanding. You remember that they are family to us and it's like you're helping a parent and teenager understand each other. Since dogs can smell better than us, and sense feelings - I just know they smell and sense a huge whiff of RELIEF and SAFETY in that workplace of yours haha I After watching so many videos, I finally feel ready to start putting in work for my boy.
LOVE this case
Great work Tom!
Love this video!!!! It is amazing the change in this dog.What a wonderful animal trainer!
Tom you are amazing! Such a change in that dog within moments, WOW!
This is my first time watching you bro and I have to say your content, editing and general aesthetic is so on point. Love to see it lad 100% you got a new sub from me
I love watching you guys work. We have so little training like this where I live and it's amazing to see so many dogs getting the help they need
Man I love your work, I truly believe this breed of dog is totally misunderstood and mislabeled in ways, the way you changed the reactive dog into a beautiful well mannered pup. Great work man and thanks for helping me learn for the future 🫡
Can't wait for the full length in the NBD CLUB!! 🔥
