How stop leash pulling and teach the loose leash walk.

I can only say I am in shock. We have a 5 year old Lab/pit/hound mix that lived free on about 2 acres of land for her entire life until 4 months ago. We sold our house in this crazy market time and now have 2 kids and a dog staying in extended stay waiting for a home. She had never been on a leash in her life. We started with a loving animal that turned into a nightmare. She barked at everything and everyone. If a dog was within 100 feet she went crazy. I am strong but this dog was crazy. I was buying all kinds of halters and trying to walk and teach her. I was doing everything but nothing was working. Today I watched this video. You said you guaranteed this so I watched it. The advice was free. Your dog examples were not anything like mine. Your dogs were good dogs. Our dog is named "Dolly". She used to be a Dolly. The last four months she was the "Dolly from Hell". We all love her. But we seriously afraid of what she could do to someone or someone's dog. So within 30 minutes of watching your video I went out and got the new Herm Collar. I was alone. My wife and kids were gone. I came back and said to the "Dolly from Hell"; You are going for a new kind of a walk. I put it on and tried it in the room. Ok, she was usually ready to break the door down to go out. This time she seemed a bit less aggressive but not really a test. We walked to the stairway. We had to go down 3 flights of stairs that usually she pulled me down it. Today she started that and quickly realized that was not going to feel good. I went slow and did all the verbal kind words and stopped to give her treats. Then the exit door. Wow. No run and hit the door. We went outside where people would be and she started instantly obeying me. We walked for over 45 minutes and NEVER, NEVER a single problem. Coming to me when I called her. Sitting to get a treat. Walking when I said lets go. Stopping when I said stop. Sir, THANK YOU SO MUCH. WE HONESTLY HAVE A NEW DOG. Before I was doing everything wrong. She is a great dog. Thank you again, Sasha Coyle.
sounds fake
How's Dolly doing?
@@lance8774 I could see it. I have an elderly dog that used to pull like a truck to the point where she damaged her Treachea. I put her on a prong (herm has a Treachea guard and the martingale action further protects her) and she hasn't pulled since the first 5 minutes. Same process I tried on a flat previously.
We've now fully moved to a harness to further protect her Treachea, but she still does not pull because of the foundation with the prong collar.
Though to be fair, my other 3 dogs had a different experience with the prong. Depends on the individual
But remember for future reference, it’s the OWNER who trains the dog, NOT the TOOL.
I got my dog a prong, just to clean up what he learned before, than after a little, I didn’t need it for either.
I actually as of today, have no clue where it is in the house lmao.
I love his show and thisjust summarizes and lays out all of the basic methods he uses on the show. What i love about this guide ruclips.net/user/postUgkxKkYeOoCV_w2vPX0CSyVWkhew2c4FYk0d is that you don' need to read the whole book cover to cover ... You can skip to the chapter (lesson) you want to read about. The book is arranged almost as a problem-solving guide ... Here is the problem and here is what you need to know/do to correct it. This man knows his stuff ... But more importantly knows how to teach people how they can work with their pups themselves!
He presents training in 7 days. Each of 7 items are commands that he believes a dog should know. They are presented in part ii of the book ruclips.net/user/postUgkxK8-VQWpYThx4IC6MiIvb6VS1ebTzzdxq . The parts of the guideare divided: part i know your dog part ii the seven commands part iii cures for 7 behavior problems. Each chapter presents a topic, a dog's story, and a "what to do". It was written simply and you can jump from chapter to chapter to review anything as needed.
I must thank Shield K9 for posting all these wonderful videos. I live in Niedersachsen Germany and am currently training my 13 week old GSD. She is a total Rockstar using these training techniques and I haven’t even used a prong collar. She even does a focused heel down a busy street with cars, bicycles, pedestrians und other dogs. I am legally obligated to take my pup to training school and thanks to Shield K9 we are ready to spank those classes!
That’s awesome that your pup is doing so amazing! Are all dog owners required to take a training course or is it breed specific?
The difference between you and other trainers on RUclips is, you effectively and clearly explain each step you're doing. There is no ambiguity in the way you teach. Mahalo!! 🌺😊🤙
He explained it very well that the prong collar should be high on the neck, but then when they demonstrated the final fit on the dog, it was WAY, WAY lower than it should be.
@@samwdavis hum no. Watch it again
I don't agree with the prong colur,it's seems cruel
@annievan-maassen2751 it is NOT CRUEL when used correctly.
The purpose is to signal the dog through pressure to focus on you.
E collars and prong collars are very useful and are not cruel to manage a dog that ignores the handler. These tools refocus the dog to listen and pay attention. The idea that these tools are cruel comes from people that may have a degree in animal behavior but not a clue on how to manage and train a dog. They don't understand the theory or the use. I have trained police K9 MWD in the real world clicker training and positive only trainers would and have told clients to put a down or rehome it because their training DIDNT solve the problem. Do your research and use your brain
@@annievan-maassen2751 good thing you don't own a high drive dog. These tools are not cruel.
Very clear and concise explanation of a training technique that works well. Too many people treat their dogs like babies.
My dog is my baby but I understand she is a dog so I treat her like a dog, just my baby in the pack.
I have an amstaff that weighs 34kg lean muscle, 16months old. And I baby him heaps, you don't need those prong collars. I start walking him from 16 weeks always on a harness and he walks just fine. If you have to use a prong collar, it means you have been lazy as f#$k. People shouldn't have a pet if you can't get of your ring and walk it.
@Adam Lear Yikes, you have an obvious misunderstanding of canines and behavior if you think every single dog can walk nice on a harness without a communication tool like a prong. Fear mongering works, and you're an obvious example of that. I've met people who struggled to train their dogs with multiple R+ trainers for YEARS before deciding to use a prong because nothing else worked. They were recommended to euthanize their dog. Are they lazy?
Try understanding the tool before assuming that it is some scary spiked torture tool because someone told you to. Most of the people that say prongs are bad make money off that false spread of information. Science based trainers, the creators of tools like front clip harnesses and 'gentle leaders' that work very much in the same way prongs do (pressure-release system), but, hey, they look much less scary. It's all marketing, and everyone in the dog training industry is trying to sell this point of view that plays with your emotions. That's why prongs, which are actually a really safe tool, are put in the spotlight while tools like haltis and gentleleaders are sold as 'force free' even though they use the same concept.
@@allison3054 it's obvious you hardly walk your dog. Amstaffs are amongst the worst pullers. Consistency is key and patience, if your animal don't listen, you haven't earnt it's respect. Sounds like you're lazy and impatient
@@adamlear7233 Good try, bud. Your experience with your ONE dog doesn't encompass every dog. I have an Am. Staff, so I'm not sure why you think you're so special? You've had your dog since 16 weeks. Not everyone is that lucky.
Also, not sure why you're making digs at me when you're the one putting yourself on a pedestal. I walk my staffie on a flat collar daily, and work with other dogs regularly.
Coming from a police k9 handler of 26 years, very well done sir! Your info is spot on and well presented!
With all your years of experience, I was wondering if you could answer this question?
Growing up,we were told to walk the dog on your right side, the owners would be between the dogs, to avoid any possible problems between 2 passing dogs. So why is most people walking there dogs on the left side?
Michael, that’s a great question! I have no idea why people would be taught to walk a dog on the right. Your scenario makes sense but I only know the way I was taught. In police work we always. Wanted to keep our weapon hand available for any unforeseen threats. The majority of folks being right handed- just makes sense. It really doesn’t explain the “leftys” though does it?
@@dtgarner840That makes sense. Thank you for getting back
@@michaelsadach3571 Yeah the side your dog walks on doesn't really matter since sometimes you're walking against traffic, with traffic, in parking lots, at parks, etc. I train dogs to a heel on both along with a left command and right command. That way at any moment, you can have your dog switch from your left side to your right side into a heel. The centre command is also great for when there's no room on either side.
@@skythedogtrainer thank you
I have struggled for the last year and a half with my dog pulling on the leash. Walks have been so stressful for me and my dog. I have been hesitant to try a prong collar, but I watched this video and broke down and got one. OMG! Tried it the first time & it was amazing! Day 2 was even better! I practiced the snapping technique prior to getting a prong collar & it worked great! My dog & I have greatly improved our walks and has helped tremendously with behavior! Thank you! Thank you!
Yes please. There was a guy who got a cheap one that broke, said it was advertised as the U.K. brand & obviously it wasn't...
NO IT'S NOT GOOD INFO!!! HE SHOULD NOT BE A FKG TRAINER WHATSOEVER! YOU JUST WALK W/THE DOG W/REGULAR LEASH. WHEN/IF THE DOG PULLS YOU CHANGE IMMEDIATELY THE DIRECTION YOU ARE WALKING. HE START WATCHING YOU THEN LEARNING TO FOLLOW YOUR LEAD!!! THAT'S IT! THAT'S ALL IT FKG TAKES!!!! YOU'VE JUST GOT TO BE CONSISTENT W/THE TRAINING!!!! IT DOES NOT TAKE LONG AT ALL TO TRAIN THIS PARTICULAR 'MANNERS'!!! DON'T DO THIS BS W/ANY ANIMAL!!!!
@@helenpierce-lamoureux3124 your use of all caps proves enough 🤡
@@helenpierce-lamoureux3124 There are only two ways to train a fear aggressive hypersensitive dog that has never been leash trained. 1. Use a regular collar and yank the dog when she starts pulling, barking, and even running towards a fast moving object, say a motorcycle. The dog will sooner or later learn this and will pay attention to the leash, not the moving motorcycle or even the noise. 2. Use a prong collar and do the same thing. BTW, the regular collar is much more painful than the prong collar cause your dog will be choked by the regular collar while the prong collar will give your dog a sharp but not long-lasting or damaging pain. The goal is not to punish the dog, but to make your dog pay attention to the leash, instead of other distractions, like noise, moving objects, other barking dogs, .... Leash training aims not only at leash walking. It is also part of the obedience training. Dogs were bred by humans to obey strict orders to work specific tasks. If your dog doesn't respect you as the boss, there is no way you can control your dog under some crazy situations. Most working dogs are put into cages almost the entire day, except when they are let out to work. If you are thinking about being humane, don't get a dog. Get a cat instead. Cats don't need to be trained and will not be destructive or harmful to your family, the human society or themselves. I am not using the prong collar any more. But a regular collar is not much better. The only reason I don't use the prong collar is that it may raise the level of fear aggression of my dog. When my dog feels being controlled by the prong collar, her fear level will increase.
@@helenpierce-lamoureux3124
My dog was a powerful dog at 6 month still on a flat collar your method did not work my dog was pulling lunging towards roads motor cycles, flying leaves blowing past us on a windy day,
Literally anything moveing bird flying she would jump up at it on road,
It became a joke,
So I got a slip chain and a prong she was trained in half an hour,
My other dog we used your method it's a joke,
Positive training!
treats was used she now a 20 months old she fights with other dogs, she has bitten a family member,
She Won't have her feet touched, she dominates certain people,
Where as the prong trained dog is far more obedient recall is getting superb 8monthsold now,
so seriously this way is best,
As for the trainer he is saving dogs lives that people like you and co put into terrible predicaments GET A GRIP OF YOURSELF.
The video is really helpful, thank you a lot!
But I can't ignore the guy with his beautiful and well trained Malinois. She's awesome.

@@helenpierce-lamoureux3124 Yeah no. Just a leash and collar didn't work with my dog at all, the prong collar helped alot
Why are you yelling? 🙄
There are indeed many videos on youtube about pulling, but yours is by far the best.
Stumbled across this video and now I'm hooked. Wasn't a fan of choke collars and realized using them isn't abusive. You also took the time to really demonstrate how to work with your dog.
The prong collars aren't to sharp and when he explains which part clip the leash to on the chain that's because it's a "martingale " type collar which means yes it can get tighter but only tight enough to add that pressure or prevent them from slipping the collar not like typical chain choke collars that can continuously tighten and actually choke a dog out . This video is full of phenomenal information that is true and factual 👏👌
They _are_ abusive and unnecessary. Millions of dog owners living in countries where prong collars are rightfully illegal can still train their dogs without any of those tools, and without harsh pulling and popping on a dog's neck. It's just easier and works faster for people who are too lazy to invest more time in training and communicating.
@@lavishlyvice I will assume you live in a country that has nanny laws, I only feel sorry for you.
@@hobbyless4089 Okay dude lmao
What an excellent teacher you are! Very thorough explanation with many practical examples. I don't even have a dog, and I learned a lot.
This was an absolute gamechanger for me after 2 years training to have fun on walks! Even without the prong. Thank you !!!
That was a good job and I do one exercise at a time just like you showed me with my German shepherd and it works very nice I appreciate it keep senators new stuff and I keep working with him it really makes a world of difference
Watched this video before didn't take it in at first go watched again today as I was still struggling started today she did not even respond to her name but before end of walk she was at least coming back to her name long way to go thank you
Thanks for breaking this down so clearly and demonstrating with a “new” dog. Super helpful!
Absolutely god send your videos , been struggling with my pit bull and your explanation are so up to the mark . I am now using it for my daily walking with my buddy .. thanks a million ....
Really similar to how I was taught at a community center dog obedience class 35 years ago with my headstrong Golden Retriever male, sans treats and before anyone knew about prong collars. After a week or so, he was on my left knee always, with or without a leash. Same with a large Aussie male who was even more headstrong. Basically you're teaching the dog to remain focused on you, no matter the distractions. So simple to get thru to the dog, it makes me sad watching almost everyone struggle with out of control dogs on strained leashes, and believe me the majority DO NOT want any help!
@@Godiscoming888 Add 10-15 feet of rope to your leash so it's pretty long. Find a spot without people/other dogs like a quiet park. Start walking and when your dog is distracted and heads somewhere else, let him, then when the leash tightens, POWERFULLY force an about face (now facing you), praising your dog at that distance for paying attention to you. Shortly you'll notice your dog anticipating, not going to the end of rope+leash length. Shorten the amount of rope, eventually to just the leash. Then work on stops and turns. Now the dog is focused on you, the pack leader and recognizes you as such. Being pack animals, dogs are only happy when they understand their social position in the pack. Have fun!
@@fly1327 thanks for some reason my reply was removed or maybe it’s internet connection. We live by the lake so he’s on a longline of that length. On normal walks the prong has completely changed our walks for the better. On beach he gets extremely hyper focused on smells and dogs etc and he ignores corrections. He fixates on the dead fish on the beach… it’s very hard to snap him out of it.
Mind you I’m a 5’4120lbs female so maybe my corrections aren’t as sharp as I think they are lol. But I started adding the sharp turns that I forgot to do prior to this and it’s helping. Will continue doing as you say. It’s just a matter of me improving as a handler tbh as this is my first puppy/dog.
@@fly1327your not using a prong collar when doing this though correct? I definitely have seen just moving in a different direction without prong and they learn to keep attention on you. Beckmans dogs teaches it. It's very effective
It's so nice to actually see the process! Thank you! This has been the BEST dog training video on loose leash walking I've ever seen. I love how you use dogs that are untrained to explain the process. Also even with leash pops and pressure you see the dogs happy and eager to work for you!
I've left so many comments on this one video--but this is THE BEST!!! I WISH I LIVED WITHIN A 5-8 HR DRIVE FROM ONTARIO (sadly, I don't). But I would 100% pay for a board & train from you.
You explain & demonstrate SO WELL. I "subscribe" to several "top" "celebrity" trainers online--YOU are head & shoulders above the rest. When the heck will you get a Discover Channel or PBS Show???!
Wonderful, thank you!!❤🐾❤
Same here Karina!!! I completely agree with all you said!!! Wish my dog could get a day with him!
like he said, he will never have a show, lol people watch shows for drama. this is not drama this is just useful information.
Thank you for showing how to properly give a leash pop using the pole instead of a moving dog. It made everything crystal clear and I even went back to watch that portion more than once.
I like the leash pop action. Your video and dog participants made it easy and actually a joy to watch. A++ in my book.
Love this video!!!! The most effective help I’ve proved with both my labs-1.5 yrs and 10 months. Took them out one morning for our usual walk and used your advice. IMMEDIATE change. Zero pulling ever since. Can’t thank you enough!!
Thank you for taking the time to make these educational videos. Not only are they educational on training, but also handling, and the thought processes of the animal at your hand. I’m looking to train my pup as a service animal with ptsd, alerting, and retrieving objects. Hopefully you have some videos on that too, and if not, maybe a good idea for new content. Thanks, again!
Thank you so much. My six year old golden doodle is a great dog -- except for walking on a leash especially in presence of rabbits, squirrels, or cats. Two snaps of the leashed prong collar and he was walking beautifully. Tonight was our third try with the prong collar and he was walking with a loose leash the whole time. When we got home I realized I had mistakenly put the collar on with the prongs pointing away from him -- and it still worked. I guess he is cured. Thanks again.
Finally some video that actually is gonna help training my dog !
Excellent video! This is how it’s done if you want a dog that is actually trained. Most important is proper technique and consistency. You have to challenge the dog and correct, every time. Praise the good!
Thank you we are so grateful that you posted this and other videos on the true facts and training of re active aggressive pups. We can really do this I have a bit of experience but every dog is different. Thanks again
Wow, that's such a beautiful Shepherd!!! Love how he looks.. His temparament, build, coat and the mask 👍👍
Thanks for the video. I will be trying this. I've noticed when I do the pop he listens, when we get in a tug of war he's just in another world. I will try my best to communicate with my dog more. Thanks again!
Just discovered ur channel. Thank u so much for this video!! I recently rescued a white German Shepherd about 6 months old. Only had her 3 months now and she's come a long way. But she's very aggressive to anyone who comes into my yard, friend or foe, so I've ordered a prong collar. And with ur help I now see how to use it. U have a subscriber! And to all those who say that this collar is cruel and abusive, they must not have watched ur video. The dogs u r working with r certainly not looking abused! Thanks again!!
Awesome Videos as usual. Simple, transparent, no drama. My puppy is going to be 4 months. Will use this tool when he is 5 months old. He pulls on the leash, i started with chock collar (pet-safe nylon) last couple of days. Seeing good improvement. I am not harsh on him though
Marker training really is the only way. I use, yes, no and good. It is simple. Well explained for pet dog owners.
You're very professional and speak so the layman comprehends . Thank you for sharing.

@@helenpierce-lamoureux3124 But what if they do it anyway though
I think highly of your videos. This is the best prong collar training video that I have watched on RUclips r anywhere. Your presentations are well organised and clear. Thank you so much for this, I will be sending my clients to your channel.
i have a similar collar without the metal and my shepherd took to this after three or four walks. Its such a pleasure to walk him now as he needs the exercise to remain happy and strong. i think the shepherd part helped him as he seems very smart and eager to please. walk time is fun now. Thanks. when strangers come by, jogging or what have while we walk. I simply put him in a sit while they pass. then start back up with a little treat. Just do like they show you and remember they are dogs not people. the better trained the more you can enjoy and love them.
Thank you,
I have a Czechoslovakian shepherd & she is a bit tuffer to train then my rottweiler. And is definitely not food motivated but she Loves her red ball
Great video, thank you for sharing your thoughts on this subject & your techniques so concisely. I have working dogs that rarely get the chance to be in public, or on a leash, I'm actually getting a new to me breed that I think they'll benefit from with this type of training greatly.
Excellent! This looks great and I can't wait to try these techniques in the morning. You've given me hope!
I have two large dogs with severe reactivity and I've followed many other videos, trainers (a few from RUclips), and techniques with commitment, but never have I had permanent results until a program like this. I actually learned some of this from another trainer, but this video captures it much better and I'm planning to work with Shield in someway going forward. I will say I think the other videos by Shield K9 on foundational ideas make this much more effective. I struggled with committing to a prong collar and some of the negative corrections emotionally having had some experience and in particular bad experience.
Great explanation and real demonstration - so appreciative of it.
Very clear, straight to the point and useful video. Thank you.
I am a trainer also and I think that you have a great setup! I also really enjoy watching you and your dogs at work. I personally don't use pronged collars because a lot of the people that I help their dogs for, are very sensitive and do not like pulling leashes or any form of correction devices. I think that it's pretty ridiculous, at the end of the day it's still there a dog though and some people are more sensitive and just don't understand dogs nature even though they decided to own one. Either way my job is always to help benefit the people's dogs and help show owners how to help their own dog as best as I can. I honestly would like some tips if you know any on How to 'train' people, because that is the only thing that ever gives me a hard time, dogs are the easy part! Anyways it's always nice to watch other dog trainers who actually know what they're doing! Have a great day and keep up the good work! ☺️❤️👍
You are an excellent teacher with alot of good information. It is amazing that you provide it for free. Thank you!
Not gonna lie, I really love these videos! Such good training :D
Great job explaining this. The same method a K9 officer showed me with my GSD (German Sheperd Dog). I used it on my Rottie and my neighbor's pit bull. It worked every time. He taught me to use a fence pole on proper snapping using a slip collar as you showed in the beginning. Constantly changing directions as the dog starts to walk away is important to keep the dog's attention on you. K9 officer said the same thing you said on snapping as the dog gets to the end of the leash. Dogs learn to read the handler thru the leash.
Dog doesn't understand verbal language the same as humans. They read emotions and sounds. They pick up on words but not sentences or compound words. You can say "good boy" positively and he/she will respond a certain way as a reward. Then you can say "good boy" in a rude manner and the dog will respond differently. Same words used but emotionally different. That's why people shouldn't use compound words like sit-down. Dogs can get confused if they should sit, lay down or stand on all 4 paws if they jump up on someone or the furniture. You probably cover some of this in other videos. This is the first one of yours I've seen.
If anyone is still having issues after seeing this, I would highly recommend them to spend a few dollars and go seek out a certified trainer who uses this method even if it is you they contact for help because it is not the dog who needs training, it is the handler/owner who needs training on how to communicate with there pet. The cost is just pocket change compared to the damage a dog can do rather if it is material things or legal fees. Some counties will take your dog away and have them put down.

Just found your channel with this video and already loving your content!
Thank you so much . You’re technique worked amazingly 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Your training instructions are the first to work with my 2-year old Shepherd lab mix rescue. Thank you!!!
Thank you so much for this wonderful lesson!!! This will help me big time!
So cool that you showed the door piece to this. it could be it's own video! I teach my dogs that I go in first and they have to be invited, every time, so no one gets run over through doors. only calm animals are allowed back inside. i have not tried it with the leash yet... so this will be a good exercise. i show them with body language, and have reinforced with treats when they stay back and wait at the door until i say the release command or 'come in'. but this leash example is great!
So well explained. Some dogs can learn loose leash walking even on a harness. Pulling is bad, loose leash is good!
I don't want to put a collar of any kind on my 11 week old puppy in case an accident puts him off collars. Already he is loose leash walking and learning leave it quite well on a harness . He is a very smart and agreeable puppy. I did use a prong on a 5 year old incorrigible rescue and it worked a charm used properly. Timing is everything! Every dog is different.
It’s much easier to teach this to puppies. My lab/terrier is near perfect on a leash.
This is a KEEPER video! Very, very, very good training video!!!
Never been a fan of prong collar but this video has helped explain training with it. Thanks
You are te best dog trainer! Thanks to your techniques my dog is doing fantastic !🤗♥️
Wonderful content as always. I love your stuff so much I just signed up for your online training. It’s really helped me understand how drastically important timing is.
Great job on this video! Very helpful and effective tips.
OH MY GOSH!! I've watched a million "training" videos, including Leersburg vids on prong collars--hands down, the BEST demonstration & explanation of how to use prong collar.
We're using one with generally good results, but I hadn't really figured out how/when to correct (it's kind of been a "self-correction" when he lunges), and lately he's pulling a bit again (85% walk is "loose leash" vs 5% prior to prong collar, so has been definite improvement).
Your "demonstration on the column is SPOT ON, will share with others!!❤❤❤

@@helenpierce-lamoureux3124 while your merhod might work on normal dogs, a verry high energy dog won't even notice you changing your direction especially if another dog is near him(or a squirrel) . Perhaps if you pop the normal leash on the dog it might work. The Haz method works a lot faster than yours. Lol
@@helenpierce-lamoureux3124 and keep in mind you are not hurting the dog but you are making the behaivior that is bad for you, unpleasent for the dog.That way the dog knows if he doesn't listen he will have to face the consequences.How do you make the bad behavior unpleasant for the dog with your method? A big gsd will barely even feel a normal collar. And also if you keep tension on the leash, when corecting the dog, it's just like i would tell you don't eat and i will eat in front of you. lol
Someone recommended your book, I’m reading it and realized it has codes that take me to the videos!!! I’m in love!!! Thank you so much !!
I'm on my 4th GSD. Very impressed with your training techniques. I thought I knew it all. Not so much. Excellent video. Thank you
Why are many GSD’s so stubborn? Have you seen that in your GSD’s?
@@claudiacanales2662 only my new 7 month old male. My 3 others were females but he’s getting better. Nothing like a GSD. I’ll never own any other.
Always had a female. Now I have a 7 month old male and wow have I seen a difference. But he’s turning out awesome. Definitely a difference between male and female. At least for me. Training wise. Nothing like a GS. Great with kids n family
Verify helpful. My gratitude is yours.
Good demonstration and tips. When I use the "prong" collar I teach my clients the difference between a regular run of the mill prong and a Herm Sprenger collar. I demonstrate the 2 and educate them on why a Herm Sprenger collar is so much better and safer than a prong collar.
Where do you buy the Herm Sprenger collar?
Thanks very much for the pulling elimination ideas. Tomorrow my beautiful female mixed breed and I will begin to have a more positive and enjoyable time when walking.
I have no problem with others using prong collars when it is used correctly, sort of like a bit or spurs, but at the same time it completely and reasonably possible to train your dog to walk on a leash properly without one except for more difficult cases where all other methods have been exhausted. I used to use them on my dogs until I found that once I would relieve the pressure on the lead, the chains on the collar would get stuck and not loosen up without me having to manually relieve the pressure. The dogs ended up being more confused than anything since they had no sense relief from the correction. With that being said, I really enjoy this guy's videos. He gives really great, informative training videos that have helped me a lot when it comes to working with my new puppy.
Great video mate, the most informative leash pulling one I have ever seen and I have watched heaps of them. Really like the training example with dogs with no prior training..
Prong collar really is a great training tool and so misunderstood, my Boerboel works great on it.
ive had issues with them uncoupling whilst out and the dog running after another
Except they’re not legal everywhere. As soon as I see the trainers us a prong or e-collar I have to move on.
@@thalassophile1665 I had worries, but decided to give it a try, best move I made, this is by far the best information video I have seen. might be worth a try if legal where you live, you may like me be impressed.
@@benbird6803 no option here.
Useful video and a great tool. It works.
Very well done. Informative and to the point! Love your channel.
Great video bud . I use train dogs . Mine was a silent walk similar in some aspects. Your technique is excellent. But I've had dogs come to me that have been way past approach. This is were the silent walk comes in . Keep up the Great work 👍
amazing how great jax did under all that intense distraction! this is great thank you!
Good information given clearly.. Thanks alot.
I’m so impressed with your training. I have a 3yr old GSD and she pulls on the leash. I’m definitely going to purchase the prong collar and start training. Thank you 😊
Thank you for your videos this one in particular helped me straighten out my daughters Belgian mal. When walking on a leash
Great video very clear instructions. I needed this.
Thank you 😊
Great job sir! I appreciate the way you speak on pressure as a tool when used properly, so that these new school trainers who believe in only using one of the four quadrants in training (all positive reinforcement) have a better understanding that when using "pressure", that doesn't mean using an abusive level of force. Good video.
NO IT'S NOT GOOD INFO!!! HE SHOULD NOT BE A FKG TRAINER WHATSOEVER! YOU JUST WALK W/THE DOG W/REGULAR LEASH. WHEN/IF THE DOG PULLS YOU CHANGE IMMEDIATELY THE DIRECTION YOU ARE WALKING. HE START WATCHING YOU THEN LEARNING TO FOLLOW YOUR LEAD!!! THAT'S IT! THAT'S ALL IT FKG TAKES!!!! YOU'VE JUST GOT TO BE CONSISTENT W/THE TRAINING!!!! IT DOES NOT TAKE LONG AT ALL TO TRAIN THIS PARTICULAR 'MANNERS'!!! DON'T DO THIS BS W/ANY ANIMAL!!!!
@@helenpierce-lamoureux3124, unfortunately, that’s not all it takes. I have a half APBT and Half Great Pyrenees. Amazing dog. But true to form, he is as hard headed as they come! He’s one of the best dogs I’ve ever had but in the wrong hands (because of genetics) he could be a nightmare. I rescued him from the streets so I’m committed but I’ve had to be really as stubborn as he is to get his attention and in one instance, it saved his life.
@@helenpierce-lamoureux3124 Your use of all caps damages your credibility.
@@helenpierce-lamoureux3124 No he's right, i did a couple things he did (b4 i even saw this). As for me, I don't use a leash at all! Even at night time when a deer shows up, or a bunny runs right passed my dog. Lucy knows to stick right by me. But it took about 8 months to completely be 100% confident 2 throw my leash in the garbage
Not all dogs Obey, and do exactly what your comment says; Thats about all i got 2 say 2 u.....lol...But, yes it's true for my dog. I literally threw away my dog leash, and that didnt happen by doing what u said.........
Great video explaining why 99% of your average dog owners should never be allowed to use prong collars or similar tools. In the wrong hands they are basically a torture device which will probably result in the dog having 0 respect for the handler. In the right hands they are incredibly effective and have saved a lot of dogs with "incurable" issues being destroyed. Just goes to show you, problem usually exists on 2 legs, not 4.
Nowhere does he ever say that the average dog owner should never be allowed to use prong collars or similar tools. He simply describes how to use one correctly.
@@randysandford4033 except that the title and thumbnail are kind of exactly that. Promising a stop to pulling..."instantly"
Learning to use a prong collar is not instant. And not for all dog cases.
This is irresponsible. But clicks.
@@randysandford4033 exactly
Wow thanks a lot you’re the only one who uses untrained dogs, real life training really thanks so much my gs was pulling so much
Great explanations and demonstrations. If I see a handler and dog with a prong collar I watch carefully to see how they work as a team. If the handler keeps a straight leash with the prong all of the time, I immediately go to the other side of the street as I can see there could easily be problems. If I see them using the prong collar incorrectly I do the same.
I bought a prong collar for our German Shepherd. It works beautifully!
My man! Outstanding video!👏🏼👍🏼
Sincerely appreciate the video, experience and prong collar brand recommendation. Purchased two Herm Spengler prong collars for our two Australian Cattle Dogs and noticed a significant change day 1…THANK YOU!
Thanks for posting this content man. IDK if it works out financially for yourself but know it is hugely helpful to my dog’s life regardless of that.
I have worked with difficult dogs. I love prong collars. they are NOT bad when used appropriately. A small tug or jiggle gets their attention. a dog that dislocated my shoulder on the 1st attempt at walking turned into a sweet well mannered dog with appropriate pressure and release of the prong collar. I'm currently dealing with someone who thinks prongs are abusive and wants me to just use the 1000 treats method of training. it is infuriating as I think constant treats cause other problems as they cover over your inability to communicate what you want of the dog. I very rarely use treats when training. and all my dogs are well mannered.
I have read most of the comments. I have a prong collar, which has to said my dog’s behaviour improves just for wearing it and I strongly believe it does not harm the dog. However, it suddenly dawned on me, why don’t I just do exactly the same as the trainer in the video without the prong collar. Guess what IT WORKED! Master the technique seems to be the answer. As soon as the dog starts to pull slacken the lead and give an appropriate tug. In my case it didn’t take long for the penny to drop. The eureka moment was when my dog realised its self that the lead was tight and stopped pulling. Win Win I would say.
How do you slack a lead if the dog is pulling so tightly you have to run to catch up to slack and I guess
@@oo5434 you move ahead a bit and then deliver the tug
thank you for showing so much of your training for free!
Very nice work. 💪 Clear with excellent demo and explanation.
Flexi-leashes TEACH dogs to pull. Dogs hate Halti collars. Thanks for mentioning these things and providing this info. I have used the Herm Sprenger prong collars when my dogs were younger, and they now walk beautifully when they occasionally need to be on leash. It isn’t necessarily a tool needed forever. 🐶❤️
The owner teaches the dog to pull on a flexi. A flexi is a great tool
Great video makes sense and very straightforward
Pleasure to watch an learn from this man. Quite humourous just the particular way he way he puts it - great solid information - actually inspires you to train your dog better for both the owners and dogs benefit.
Awesome thanks for another professional and proactive video that is so simple and well explained
Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺
My dog had just recovered from her illness and will start going on long walks again, she's forgot a bit of these lessons. This is a nice refresher. My only problem is that we use a slip leash, and it keeps sliding down her throat.
Get a slip leash with a stopper or try a martingale maybe...slip leashes shouldn't slip. It maybe a bad quality leash with cheap materials (that's the only time I've seen a slip lead slide)
The video is however unique and effectively informative. I learnt new things. Thanks
Yeesss. I found this video VERY helpful, and I have liked and subscribed, and bought your new book! Loving it. Thank you so so much for all your hard work and effort.
Well done video. I trained dogs for mushing in the Arctic and for personal protection. 90% of the vids on Utube
Are laughable. I have my dogs leash trained by the time they are 3 mo or less ,old.
I’m going to start doing this, planning on an update in 2 weeks or so :)
Well?
WELL?
@@tterexx426 100000/10000 recommend I thought I wouldn’t work but it did !!
@@hailey.gallegos thanks for the update!
Well done. I watched as a refresh and I think this was an excellent video.
This was fantastic and very informative.
Can't wait to get the prong collar. Had it for our other smaller dogs. Great video ☺️ thank you. We have two German Shepherd brothers. They sure are a handful. But will try this technic 👍
I’m so glad I watched this video before trying the prong collar. I would have done it all wrong. Thank you.
Also, this prong collar is on,y used for training and I should be able to go back to a regular collar, right?
Hi Christine. I work with pet dogs of all shapes and sizes in San Francisco. I have never worked with a working dog nor competed in obedience. I mention this to contextualise myself. In my experience, most of the dogs I have trained on a prong collar can go back to a normal flat or training collar (I don't use slip collars). However, it often makes sense to keep using a prong collar for some of the heavier dogs esp. the bully breeds. In addition, I have seen dogs get collar-wise and fail to behave correctly unless the prong collar is on. It depends what you are competing with. When my golden client is around water, no amount of leash pressure or training can overcome the urge to swim, so she wears a prong on the way to the lake. Otherwise she is fine. To cut a long story short, it depends on the dog. With all training, the aim is to use the least intervention as possible. But before switching to a regular collar, PROOF YOUR DOG. This is very important.
@@laramonroe3363 ,thank you.
Great video. Confirms what I am currently doing is correct. Thank you
Great video and information! These demonstrations are so useful. Well done!
I need more pixie. She's adorable and hard working😍
