EASY OBEDIENCE TRAINING WITH MY BELGIAN MALINOIS PUPPY! HEEL/ SIT/ DOWN/ STAY!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 сен 2024
- In this session I run my Belgian Malinois through basic obedience commands; Heel, Sit, Down, Stay! I show all training equipment and rewards used as well as many different training techniques and approaches. 'Working" a dog does not mean physically exercising them, but rather making them use their brain to control their body for various exercises and tasks. A session like this puts SO much value in me and 'puts money in the bank' when it comes to bonding with my dog. This is much more special than launching a ball for a half hour!
I will answer all questions left in the comments! We're almost at 10K LETS GOOOOOO!!!!!

Mcmillian is incredible! We watch his show lucky dog and can't believe what a selfless helping person he is. The book ruclips.net/user/postUgkxfKlzfzw0sMZ_RgZNzMeOPu6d4b5i5XWl has his training methods from both the show and new tricks i had not heard until i got the book. Simple dog psychology and pointers to make the methods stick. Great insight to the thinking of dogs. There is so much more we know now about our dogs. Fear in training no longer apply. I cannot say enough about this book and it's author.
You don’t scold puppies. You’re putting them in situations setting them up for failure. Therefore need to scold yourself!
The second my dogs hear me pick up the ecollar they are right next to me ready to go. They know its time to work. And they love it. Great video!
Just got a Malinois puppy, thank you so much for your videos!! Will follow them!
Awesome! Good luck!
@@AndyKrueger thank you!!!😁
Hello 👋 how are you doing 😊 and how is the weather ☁️ over there?
Lb
I just found your channel today. I'm getting interested in both training dogs in general and also the awesome Malinois breed. Thanks for the videos. I'll be busy watching them all
Nice video,but we dont speak
french in the town of Mechelen (malinois) its in the flemisch regio off the country .
The flemisch name off the belgain malinois is mechelse herder te commands in flemisch are
Heel=hiel sit=zit stay=blijf down=lig wait=wacht come=kom off=af leave it= afblijven
Belgium is a small country with 3 official languages ,flemisch france and german.
Just a little info,like the video and the dog.i got one my self there amizing grtz from belgium gunther
Great info. He is trained for a French dog sport, hence the language 👍🏻
You should do a video on how to say these translations please
The best training sir. When I was your video I get knowledge to much. Thanks for sharing sir.
First time watching, Andy
Love the energy and 411.
Freddy Kruger is a perfect name for these gators. Their claws are equally as sharp and powerful as their teeth, well damn near.
Thanks! 🙏🏼
Big muscular super driven male Mal. He loves to work and he loves you. Nice Doggie
Thanks
Hello 👋 how are you doing 😊 and how is the weather ☁️ over there?
Doing great, it's getting colder every day here. I've been thinking 🤔 about a Mally to grow old with as soon as I heal from my total knee replacement. Are you a Mally Dad ???
Nice to know........ where are you from?

@@embramorgan6720 she didn’t make the team. But still super smart
I got female Belgian and she is so sweet and smart
Thanks for sharing. I’m always fascinated to hear what people’s definition of ‘smart’ is. Could you elaborate?
This is what I need.
Love watching ur videos andy ur videos make me want to train dogs for living id never work another day !
We recently rescued a German shepherd, we found him in the road and I want to train him because I want to try something new!!! Wish me luck 😊
Badass Dogs they are!
Hello 👋 how are you doing 😊 and how is the weather ☁️ over there?
Somewhat helpful but it seems that you’ve already started training him off camera so he’s familiar with it. Some videos of what to do and how to teach them from scratch would be helpful. For instance, what to do when you say sit, and they don’t know how to sit or when you say stay and they don’t understand that yet.
Of course! Training starts the moment you get the puppy! If the dog doesn’t respond to commands, then they don’t know the commands!
Hello 👋 how are you doing 😊 and how is the weather ☁️ over there?
Very best job❤❤❤💖
Hello 👋 how are you doing 😊 and how is the weather ☁️ over there?
I have a mal, was completely against prong and e collars. Not any more.
Can you give more details on how you got this far with the dog, the specific commands. Thanks.
I will have a video series releasing that will be available for purchase early next year. It will be in depth, step by step instructional training. My RUclips videos are more to give tips and provide inspiration, rather than break things down step by step 👍🏻
Buy a book dude. Watch YT videos. Knowledge is practically at your fingertips.
Bro one question i have a 5 year old belgian mal, can i still train her to do off leash heel?? New subscriber here👍🏼
Thanks!
Yes definitely! With a motivated dog, the right equipment and training techniques, she could learn that in a few weeks time. Once learned, you can slowly build up the level of distraction. 👍🏻
Thanks bro ill gonna train her to do off leash , do you have other socials that i can follow you? Great vlog bro im from the philippines🇵🇭,
@@Akosi_poyie Awesome!
On Instagram - @andy_krueger 🤙🏼
Love it
What treat do you recommend?
thanks bro
I just followed you and hope that you would clarify mix ups about treat teaching or just teaching without instant gratification. It’s like when kids are little we give them surprise treats bc they behaved or did then we trail off so they learn to just do what was asked. What is your idea for treats bc I have a lot to teach pup
Hello 👋 how are you doing 😊 and how is the weather ☁️ over there?
Hi Andy, thanks for the list of French commands you sent me Instagram. Because of your vids I decided to use the French commands as opposed to the German commands everyone uses. I also started my 11mo old Mal, Rocky, with protection work because of you! I’m still trying to figure out some commands in French, just wondering if there are certain French words that you use for bitework?
Awesome! Yep just google ‘French dog commands’ 👍🏻
Can this training work on my 4 month old female red nose, she's sweet and Intelligent
You should get a higher energy dog. This one’s too mellow
😂😂😂🙌🏻🙌🏻
@@AndyKrueger this is not so much a dog as a side winder air to air missile with paws
@@sblack48 haha!! I can’t disagree!
Andy do you think its possible to train a ring dog/ perfect mali that I rescued at 10 months? Hes people and dog reactive but the progress weve made in the 4 days ive had him is insane, it gives me hope.
Anything is possible! Of course it’s always dependent on the dog and trainer. I believe with the RIGHT training and approach, in 3-6 months from now you won’t even believe where you are right now. I’d have A LOT of hope bc a young dog like that can adapt and change like you wouldn’t believe! Happy training 🙌🏻
@@AndyKrueger Thank you Andy. Ive been stressing out hoping he will turn out fine, hes kind of scared like his last owners beat him, I hope he will come out of his shell into a confident pup, hes showing signs already. Btw your channel has changed my life, I found your channel now I have a mali lol.
@@AndyKrueger Also I have 2 bullies I havent let him free with, thats why Im focused on his reactivity this quick into our relationship.
@@brum4366 Love it. Do not let the stress show in your training approach. The dog needs to believe you are matter of fact and confident with how you carry yourself. Take tons of time bonding one on one (months) before introducing other dogs 👍🏻
@@AndyKrueger Will do, I just got a bite pillow for him and he loves it, hes good with the out command. Do you think It would be a bad idea to get a bite sleeve for him this early?
I thought repeating jumping on you was something to train on command, maybe i was wrong.
Should/Could you start that training at 3 months?
No too soon
@@AndyKruegerwhat is a good age?
@@Rajzia Always depends on the dog and trainer!
@@AndyKruegervery very true 👍🏾
I wish you would have done the video with a non trained puppy. This dog is already trained
Look through his videos on his channel he has all foundation training for your puppy of all ages. Hope this helps!
Really? He didn't seem to be trained
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!
The fact that this dog loves to go into the collars and is wagging his tail during this training is living proof that this trainer is not abusing this dog with these training tools/devices. Did you see any misuse? Intelligent dogs love good training and strive to please with good training. This dog loves this stuff! I use a Martingale collar to keep my dog from pulling at the heel and/or bolting from the heel. My dog loves a good walk and some training and then finishing the walk. Then he likes to come home and play games like fetch and tug. Thanks for the video!
Thank you 🙏🏼
We work hard to achieve high levels of training using the best equipment possible! 🙌🏻
This is a BELGIAN MALINOIS. It’s a dog that needs training, and love it.
@Waya Wolf shooting sports I’ve found over the years that people who ‘dislike’ the Ecollar often form that opinion from an emotional standpoint. It’s never based on matter of fact evidence and they never have any real experience with the tool. I’ve personally converted hundreds of clients that were on the fence and they have all thanked me! 🙏🏼
@@Truc_Aveline All dogs, no matter breed, needs training tho. Some just more than others.
Mines loves playing fetch I taught her to sit and stay with a soft ball 😂 worked like a charm
I stumbled upon this by accident, but amazing to see how well trained your dog is. We had a malinois ' mechelse herder' when I was a kid. He was roaming around the stables behind our house. after a couple of days he decided to follow us and run into our garage door, on christmas eve. He was a young dog, estimated like 7 or 8 months at that time. I remember my father calling the police to report a lost animal and they promised they would pick him up the next day. He was super friendly and as we didn't have any dogfood in the house my sister and i fed him dry ' soldatenkoeken' which translates to soldier cookies. I'm so glad police never came to get him because he became part of the family and was always there for us. We later learned he was probably kicked out by a breeder who lived in the town next to ours because he was to kind for attack orders. However he never failed to guard the house, chasing of burglars twice and defended my sister once when she was harrased by some drunk bikers at a bar near our neighbourhood. I really loved that dog, it's been almost 20 years since he passed away and I still remember him vividly. A friend, a family member and the most loyal being you could imagine. Gypsy, you will always be in our hearts !
Hello 👋 how are you doing 😊 and how is the weather ☁️ over there?
Hlo
My dog 🐶 does not backs
Oh man, I feel you... I used to have a "mechelse herder" as well in our friendly dutch town where I used to live :-) Fantastic animal, my best buddy and friend. We got the dog when I was 5-6 years old, the dog was around 2 years old at the time. I grew up with her, I have no siblings and she was my best friend until she was over 16 years old (I was 21/22 or something) and passed away. Active until her late senior years. I have been heart broken for such a long time and still miss that dog 15 years later.
We could do anything with that dog. We did all sorts of training activities, my parents used to go to the forest with that dog 3 times a day (and I joined as often as possible too), she never needed a leash either and would simply listen on great distances. It was more to comfort other humans that sometimes we would put her on a leash.
It was an absolute delight to grow up with such a special animal with so much character.
Loved this video!
How would you handle a very strong, hyper, untrained adult Belgium Malinois who constantly pulls and tries to chase cars, birds, and squirrels, during walks????
He is very smart and sweet and will sit and stay, in the house, for short periods of time, for a treat.
He loves people and other dogs, (except for one dog that initiated a fight with him and a few known petty thieves in the community, who he barks at, nonstop and tries to chase, when he sees them, because I believe they stole some things from our yard, before.)
Malinois always have so much love. Those tooth hugs seem to never end 😆
Love my Malinois. Such a good dog. But, you have to keep them occupied. Not a dog for the lazy.
True!
Maligator🤣
Love that you explained the reward delivery mechanics! I’ve learned that how, when & where you reward is so important. I’m def going to use that tip to push the food reward in because my dog tends to creep out of stay positions in anticipation of her food! Thank you!
Awesome! Yes it’s one of my favorites, I even use this same technique rewarding the stand position. Especially pays off for the Change of Position exercise 👍🏻
Hello 👋 how are you doing 😊 and how is the weather ☁️ over there?
There are loads of videos of BM’s being these magnificent well-trained attack machines so I really appreciate that you are showing how much a BM loves to be loved as well.
Thank you 🙏🏼
Great work. One question. Why you give him the food jumping up after the heel command. Greetings from México !
Around 3:40 gives the explanation.
@@BestoftheBeast33 ok, got it. ✅
This way the dog anticipates being rewarded up by my face, therefore causing him to look up and even hop towards my face with great enthusiasm 🙌🏻 Helps keep optimum focus 💪🏼
@@AndyKrueger now is clear. Hey, you should be on my channel 🎥😎
@@Croqueton Sounds cool. What are you thinking?
At what age should I try to train my Belgian Malinois, currently he will just follow me everywhere and then lay down...
The day you get the puppy training starts.
I have 2 Belgium Mals. 5 year old Chase, 2 year old Mako. I'm kind of new to this breed but learning to train with professional help. I got the time, $$$ and plenty of space to train and most importantly- Patience and dedication. I have been working with the basics and building strong bond with them both. So far so good. Love these videos. Can't wait to watch them all. Many thanks Andy.
Awesome! Thank you 🙏🏼
Hello 👋 how are you doing 😊 and how is the weather ☁️ over there?
Any advice my Belgium is not smart she won’t grab anything look where I’m pointing at or if I sit she’ll lay down and turn away
@@BillyBeamedUplol
I am a sitter for two Mals because their loyal owner never leaves them to their own devices..So great you have the resources to do the same..u will never regret it.
We just recently took in our sons 3 year old bel mal that he adopted. We are starting with the basics on training. He sits and lays down but not to good on heel and stay. Will be using these techniques for training..wish me luck
Hi Andy. Just out of interest, why do you allow your dog to jump up against you like that? I’m trying to discourage mine from doing it, as I worry about him hurting someone, he’s only eight months old, but is already big and strong.
Just personal preference 👍🏻
So, about 7 weeks ago, a Belgian (X?) showed up in our barn. About 5 weeks ago, she started swelling like a balloon! 5 nights ago, the night of the lunar eclipse of the full blood moon, she gave birth to 14 healthy pups! Yes, you read that right! 🤯🤯🤯🤯
I'm in a similar boat... I had a backyard throw away move in, and she just popped out 10 pups
I have a Belgian malinois and pitbull mix, training him has been and continues to be a handful but the goal is to continue training him until he’s the best he can be
Awesome!
Hello 👋 how are you doing 😊 and how is the weather ☁️ over there?
I appreciate the transparency and naturalness with which you show the use of all the tools useful for training, even in a historical moment so full of animal rights activists who understand nothing about dogs, learning or training.
Hi I started watching you channel to help train my puppy I use a choker collar when training she pulls a lot should I use a different one ?
It’s not about the equipment, it’s about the training technique 👍🏻
Hello 👋 how are you doing 😊 and how is the weather ☁️ over there?
Getting our 1st Mali in mid July. She will be 11 weeks old. I’ve already called the only professional trainer here in southeast AZ to get ahead of the game where we will do a meet and greet w/ them when we bring her home. Do you have any videos on what type of toys, treats, bed space, food and supplies to buy ahead and prepare our home and to have on hand when we pick her up before the long road trip home? Also, I read that you will have full training videos. Are they available yet? I really like your personality and style. I really want to be prepared for our new family member.
Also, we have horses and a lazy but amazing big mixed breed dog who stays outside (plenty of shade and she prefers it). Should I keep the other dog out of sight during training to prevent distractions?
All you’ll need is a good crate (no wire), a leash + harness and a quality kibble.
I would recommend Destination Dog Training in AZ. Even if it’s far it is worth it.
You’re welcome to check out my Patreon but can’t guarantee it’ll have what you’re looking for 🙏🏼
Hello 👋 how are you doing 😊 and how is the weather ☁️ over there?
What I usually do is walk my dog to the park it’s about 10 minutes away and try to work with her there but she gets so distracted by other dogs, she’s registered as a mal but I think she’s a mal shepherd mix.. how do I get her to focus when there are other dogs and people around.
In those situations I can’t keep her attention on me. I bring a toy and treats she does not care about either one when we are at the park.. can you give me any advice.
It must be perfect at home first.
How often to you recommend training sessions per day?
3-6 👍🏻
Hello 👋 how are you doing 😊 and how is the weather ☁️ over there?
Love how you focus on the basics! Freddie looks like he's having a great time. Keep up the awesome work!
Hello, I am contacting you from Pravin India You have provided great information from your videos but you have to set Something has to be set up so that the information you provide can be easily translated into Indian language
I sincerely request you Thanks U 🙏
Thank you
I will look into that 👍🏻
I love this breed. I am saying this in fun: you made a 10 minute video of a very well behaved Mallie. What was destroyed in the other 23:50? You know there was something! I miss my Mal
Haha
Can you tell me why heel on the left ? I train horses and trained my GSD to heel on right , oops , we’re working on the left , he’s confused but is getting it , thanks great videos
No worries! It is personal preference. Most trainers do the left side bc that is somewhat of a dog training ‘tradition’ 👍🏻
Been trying to work basic commands with my 7-8 month old Belgian malinois! Pretty tricky but how do you get your dog to look up at you while heeling?
Hold the food where you want them to look!
not being fussy here but evertime the music comes on its a tad loud.. so I have to turn down then back up for your vocal parts.. otherwise a mint show and tell
Not fussy at all, thank you for letting me know! I’ll make the proper adjustments in future videos 🙏🏼
my Belgian malinois has to live with me in a semi truck sleeper berth, it's pretty small for this dog from what I understand.
her other alternative is some kind of shelter or give her away 😩😨
I picked her up from a kill shelter.. so I don't know how many options she has left. I don't mind her company and don't need to get rid of her.
But I would like to know, if anyone has any recommendations for me to help stimulate her mentally? we can't get very physical often, she loves playing fetch and brings the toy right back 😍
any opinions and exercises or techniques would be greatly appreciated. thank you
I’d keep playing fetch when you can and mix up the different toys you use to create variety. Ball, frisbee, tugs, jolly balls etc 👍🏻
Where did you get your dog leash? Im looking for a thin one like that and cant find one anywhere
Dragon dreams leather
It is all about the small details. Watching you in such an „easy“ session is still helpful, also i thought i trained this in a good way for a long time. Thank you Andy!
I just got a four year old rescue, She was used for breeding her whole life. Was kept outside her whole life.
I'm having a difficult time even getting hurt to look up at me when we're out on walks.
I'm trying to do so in the house but she is still very distracted.
Any feedback any help would be highly appreciated
We got a rescue puppy a year ago They days she was lab/ Shepard cross... I couldn't train her! We found out she is Malinios this is so helpful! Thank you!
May I ask what the brand is for the freeze dried treats? Love your videos and watch them all. Thank you!
Thank you 🙏🏼
Stella & Chewie’s 👍🏻👍🏻
Hello 👋 how are you doing 😊 and how is the weather ☁️ over there?
I was super happy to see they you make videos. I wanted to train for ring with you but you’re a good 3 hours away at least 😪 maybe one day when I get another Mal puppy! My “pups” are 7 so we probably won’t be training for a new sport now
My Belguim malinois 4 month old puppy getting scared of sound can u plz help me
N can I use my puppy for Protection training?
Don't worry about the noises right now, this isn't abnormal behavior for a puppy. Just ignore and keep moving. You can train protection but I'd wait until the dog is mature, 1-2 years old.
Hello 👋 how are you doing 😊 and how is the weather ☁️ over there?
TYVM for this video exactly what I’m looking for . Learning the basics . I definitely subscribed
Thank YOU! 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Great video!!! How do you get the dog to put its head/shoulder against your leg when in heel??? I saw that you had the prong collar facing so the leash would pull towards you. Is that it?
Thanks!
First I teach this position with food only over many months. The way I position my food hand will determine where the dog’s head is. Once Freddy understood this position, I then layered in my prong which he already understood leash pressure from. So these two techniques combined is what led to his Heel 🙏🏼
Hi can you guide me on the brand collars that you used in this video...I have a 3month old pit bull that I'm trying to train
A 3 month old definitely wouldn’t be ready for training collars for quite some time. Any flat collar is fine for now 👍🏻
Hello 👋 how are you doing 😊 and how is the weather ☁️ over there?
your vids are so fun and motivate me to train my dogs! :D
Best thing I could hear 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I have an Australian kelpie and I have someone issues with her. She learns commands quickly and does them well, but she is so energetic and when ahe gets too worked up she runs around Ike crazy instead of listening . Because of her high energy she has trouble with impulse control. For example, she listens to her basic commands really well in the back yeard, but as soon as I open the gate to take her outside for a walk, she had a lot of trouble listening to heel, I keep having to say it constantly because she runs ahead because she's so excited for her walk. What can I do about that? Also she gets aggressive around dogs and men except at the dog park. She growls, barks and jumps like crazy and every single time. She gets plenty of socialisation at the dog park though so I'm not sure what the issue is. What do you think I should do about this?
My personal opinion I dislike dog parks. A lot. I believe they cause a laundry list of behavior problems. From the sounds of it, it doesn’t sound like she actually knows the Heel command. Have you watched my most recent video? How much time do you spend doing sessions like this with your dog?
@@AndyKrueger no I haven't watched it I'll check it out though. I do training with her almost every day, I do multiple short sessions a day because that's how she seems to learn best. I'm just not sure why she's so well behaved in the backyard and listens to heel so well there, but not in public.
@@unknown27669 It is because she does not have the skill set to generalize the command.
My 10 month old Belgium gets overexcited also after a good exercise so maybe if you don’t walk her and teach her how to calm down with you.
I’ve had my since she was two months. She really calms when I rub belly and behind ears. It just chills her out.
I have been working with her walking with me since we got her. She’s only on my left side. We don’t go, unless she’s not pulling. So if you put a link chain up around her ears and walk down the block, not allowing her to pull, stop when she begins to pull and jerk on chain, commanding confidently to heal, back, praise with good boy girl, great job. She loves praise but is motivated by treats. You could bring small chopped apples, and every time he does lots of happy positive calm energy. They also feel and know your energy. If you’re not sure, they know it bc it comes through in your commands. They love focusing on lessons. They need something to learn constantly. My husband taught her to sit, down, paw and he’s not great at discipline but they are willing. We’re the ones that have problems with confidence in discipline our dogs. They are not our babies. I’m a Nanny and I’m crazy in love with babies, but my no, is no. No doubt given. The babies know not to try me bc they will go on timeout. It’s the same for pups.they require guidance or they will go astray. I had a Shepard mix that was very aggressive but if I said it was ok, he knew he better back off or he lost his place with me and I’d put him away. No tolerance for aggression unless situation calls for it. Be sure if what you want form your dog and they will carry it through for you. I say this with true understanding and love for those in our care. Lots of love nurturing and discipline makes for great kids and pets. My cat knew not to scratch on anything but where she was allowed. I think if you begin to watch videos of your breed, you’ll begin to pick up important tips. Take what you agree to be beneficial and truly begin all over again as though you JUST got the dog. Everyday, is a new beginning. We can undo any mistakes. Just be committed, consistent, persistent, and confident knowing you’re the boss with firmness no uncertainty. You are the one in control if the dog gets out of hand. It’s a lesson for us also in our discipline. No anger, no loss of patience. Just know everyday is a new opportunity to teach and it will come through to your dog that you’re going to win the test and he’s going to want to please you. I’m saying this from my own experience bc it’s natural for us to begin to treat them as babies but that’s the wrong idea. They need our rein to align their mindset and determination. They’re highly intelligent and will act up as bored children do when not stimulated in a boring classroom. Keep teaching him and you will be proud of yourself.I’m getting a trainer so I can teach her to jump obstacles for her exercises. I’m not done learning about animals and pets myself so have fun training with you bud.
Hello 👋 how are you doing 😊 and how is the weather ☁️ over there?

Gotta love the Freddy man!!!
Oh yeah! 💪🏼🙏🏼
Do you train basset hounds? It's like a whole different animal.
That’s for sure! I’m training two right now 🙏🏼
@@AndyKrueger I would love to see that. I'm sure my friends would, too. No one trains bassets it seems. Trainers tend to treat them like labs.
Hello 👋 how are you doing 😊 and how is the weather ☁️ over there?
Got my first Belgian a few weeks ago, he’s 10 weeks now. Love the way you teach the sit, stay command.. Will definitely be giving that a shot. One question.. Good to hand gesture to teach or voice command best for these breeds?
Awesome! I teach by luring with food. Once they lure into the behavior perfectly every time then I name it! 🙏🏼
Dogs understand hand movements better than voice.
I tested it before by using hand movement and no voice command they understood the command but when I use voice only and no hand movement seems they did not understand.
@@Joshuaxiong2 Thank you for that, due to throat cancer I can’t talk anymore and I’d love to get a Mal but not being able to talk would be such a challenge. Thank you again.
bro my dog just listen to me for treats when there is no treat he dont care help plz 🤔
You need to teach him leash pressure for sure 👍🏻
Just stumbled across this on my wall feed, and being that I'm looking into getting one of these adorable fur missiles with unlimited energy known as Belgian Malinois, I found this extremely informative and entertaining at the same time. Love the video
Thank you very much 🙏🏼
We have a 7 month old Malinois who we are going to start hardcore training in about a week when he’s healed from neutering. Where can I find your technique on training them to stop a behavior…ours takes food from the counter/table, and also tries to puppy play with our small kids and he’s too big to do that…we need to teach him to to be able to stop a behavior with a command on the spot. Thanks!
Hey Laura! Training can actually be started immediately. Loading reward markers requires almost no physical action from the dog!
My training philosophy is, if you are trying to ‘stop’ your puppy/ dog from doing something, you are focusing on the wrong things. I train my dogs what TO DO, so I don’t have to constantly attempt to try and tell them what NOT TO DO. Actual obedience wouldn’t be my primary focus if I were you, but rather lifestyle changes and overall management would be the first priority.
Off leash free roaming in the house is a sure way to set your puppy up for failure. I’d look to set up a daily schedule that will allow him to thrive 🙌🏻
@@AndyKrueger Thank you so much! I love your training methods I've seen so far, they really vibe well with this high energy and drive of the malinois. I already started your sit stay from this video this morning, and he's already responding so well. I'm going to watch more and more, totally addicted and he's much more responsive to these methods than some more traditional methods. It's more about training me than it is about training him! For someone who grew up with labs and rotties, the malinois is a huge learning curve. Thank you for sharing your expertise!
@@laurahansen9819 Love it! Thank you very much 🙏🏼 It is definitely more human training than dog! Our dogs can only be as good as we are! 🙌🏻

I no your much more experienced than me but do you really feel the need to buzz the dog with one of them collars when other trainers train them fine without the renore collar. I just wouldn't like it if someone kept buzzing me lol. Thanks for the videos btw 👍
Yes. It is a crucial part of negative reinforcement.
My dogs are so energetic apart from training i take them on walks everyday!
thise guys are so energetic. The moment i miss the time for their walk even if its by a minute those guys would bark and howl until i get their leash and dog treats. Oh the dog treats! Never forget the dog treats theyd be like. Its fun i got the same dog and he jumps on me on a daily bases.
Hello 👋 how are you doing 😊 and how is the weather ☁️ over there?
@@bensongraham162I'm fine. sunny and dry as always. Hope ur doin ok too
Hi Andy. What is the reason you raise your hand after you say the release marker? You say you want your dog to explode out of the heel position, but does this serve any particilar purpose? Not meant as critisism, asking cause im curious :)
Nice Mal nice job training Like the smoothness.
I’m a simple man. I see Canva font and BM I click.
Haha hell yes! 🙌🏻
I’ve always wondered if dog breeds from specific countries actually understand they’re native tongue. I just found it interesting that he’s teaching the words in French since it’s spoken in Belgium. Along with German and Dutch.
I don’t believe so
Hi, I volunteer-walk this beautiful black Malinois in a shelter in LA. And I do speak Dutch & German and no he doesn’t listen to that at all.
They come from the Dutch speaking part of Belgium. Some Cops/army use some Dutch or German words ZIT AF BLIJF LAAG. But you can train them in your native tongue.
Hi you are so impressive! I’m wondering how good the chances I have to train a 2 yr old German shepherd? Is it too late? Thanks
Not too late at all!
Hi. I’m not trying to be negative but that dog seems very familiar with those commands. How about making a video with an untrained puppy and show how to correct him/her. That will help people so much and boost your viewing numbers.
Of course he’s familiar with these commands! We’ve been working them since day one !
How to correct an untrained puppy? Why would you do that?? 😕
Great video! Thanks for sharing. We don’t allow prongs where I’m from. And our trainer is r+, but I absolutely appreciate great trainers and different methods. Proof is in the pudding. Your dog isn’t displaying meta signals that show distress or discomfort. I think many people see aversive tools and condemn them. It’s easy when we have goofy but highly biddable labs, or Goldens or cavs with low prey drive. I’m always open to learning new things. And you’ve got a new subscriber ☺️
Also I LOVE that you mentioned you don’t need the tools and you give advice for people who aren’t or don’t want to use them. There’s too many people sitting on their moral high horse. Im super impressed with this channel. I came back to this comment because my first was only half way through the video. At the end I was even more impressed.
Thanks so much 🙏🏼🙏🏼
good video, valuable tips, it's a pity that the quality of the camera - constantly zooming in, zooming out - hindered the pleasure of watching.
Sorry about that. I’ve had a new camera man for some time now 🙏🏼
hi andy great work and great video as usual! your dogs are amazing!! i have a doubt about this session you did. you didn't use the e collar, at least during the video, so my question is: did you use it later in the training session or is it a way to have your dog's 'training mode' ON? also that great 'come when called' you did with that little whistle with the dog immediately runs to you: is it conditioned by e-collar training! my 11 month old mal has a good 'came when called' when we are outside our home territory but often i struggle to make her come when she is running around in the field (we don't have fences) at home. she is like 'f**k you i'm having good time here i won't come'!!. for sure we can work more and more on the comand, but do you think with a proper e-collar training can we have better results?
Great questions 🙌🏻
This session he wore the ecollar but I never used it, even after video was over. I wouldn’t use it to ‘activate training mode’ bc later when I don’t want to use the ecollar this could cause problems. Collar going on is normal no matter what we do. 👍🏻
I actually haven’t used the ecollar for his recall at all, BUT, also keep in mind he is in his yard where he is used to things, so recall is easy. If I took him out in public off leash, I’d want him to know the collar for recall first. Using the ecollar the reinforce your recall is one of the best uses for it! Your dog knows if they blow you off you have the ability to reach out and touch them/ correct them immediately no matter the distance 🙏🏼
@@AndyKrueger that makes a lot of sense effectively! during competition dogs have to be in the right mental state without wearing tools.. thank you for your answer!! keep pushing and good bites!! ;)
@@andreaperuch1327 Thanks!! 🙏🏼
My germen puppy is 11weeks.. is there a better age to tech them? I have the dog for 4 days.. if you have tip small tip for me I be grateful 😁 I'm french and I love you video I learn alot
Training starts day 1!! Lots of hand feeding and crate time 👍🏻
Im a first time belgian mali owner and so amazing watching your video very informative.
🙏🏼
Hello 👋 how are you doing 😊 and how is the weather ☁️ over there?
I recently adopted a mallinois/dachshund mix. (Interesting I know).
He is about 8 months and has clearly never had any training which is why the previous family gave him up. I am very dedicated to training this dog so this video is very helpful.
Great video! Thank you for including the french commands. 👍 Questions- do you exercise before training? (it seems like the answer would be no since you want him PUMPED) How much exercise do your mals get a day?
Thanks! 🙏🏼 Great question; I do a 5-10 min run around/ potty break before training, just to get the blood flowing and muscles warm. But yes I want him pumped before the session. When I compete, I may exercise my dog a bit with 5-10 min of tug to take the edge off.
My mals get a moderate amount of exercise daily, but I’d bet people would be surprised with how much down time they get. I’ve been through many injuries with many dogs and know over exercise is usually the main culprit. And most newer owners think since their mal ‘has so much energy’ they need to be run all day. Teaching them how to relax and be bored is extremely important to me. The dog works for me, not vice versa!!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼
@@AndyKrueger Good advice!
@@froast574 🙏🏼
@@AndyKrueger i need to know how to relax my gsd, unless he is sleepy his energy doesnt end, running trhowing ball commands, all of that and after i leave him alone he still barks to people and runs from end to end on the fence. Walks 2 times a day for 2 hours in total, has 1 hour play time and 2 times a day commands for 20ish minutes.
No training always talking and talking blah blah blah...very talkative trainor....
Mastering the basics! Awesome stuff. Thanks!!
Thanks for watching! 🙏🏼
Hello 👋 how are you doing 😊 and how is the weather ☁️ over there?
Sorry Andy but wy do you use that kind of collar? If you train a dog the positive way like you do ,you dont need a collar with pins, here in Holland its forbitten.
They’re forbidden because people are easily brainwashed by propaganda. It’s simply a training tool. If you’re familiar with the four quadrants of operant conditioning you’d understand the value. Collars don’t abuse dogs, people do 🙏🏼
Noticed that he jumps up on you a lot. Happens to be a pet peeve of mine. How would you suggest training that out?
No need! Maturity will take care of that for me 👍🏻
I agree. That face jumping chit would stop immediately. But overall, I like the videos
@@danielsnyder4114 Thank you! Have you ever competed in a bite sport with a Malinois? Or just owned pets? I ask bc I raise and train competition working dogs differently than house pets.
@@AndyKrueger no sir. I’m at pet stage now. After my LE K9 life, bitework is mostly a thing of the past. I’ll come out of my hole on a rare occasion, but really I’m done
@@danielsnyder4114 Makes sense
Where can I learn how to train a protection dog online? For clarity, I’ve never trained a dog at all, aside from being the poor bastard in the bite suit for demonstration. 😂
Can’t learn it online.
My boys just arrived last night and I will be using these techniques, thank you! As soon as Im finished with all your videos and getting caught up to present day, Im going to become a patreon member!
Awesome! Thank you very much 🙏🏼
Hello 👋 how are you doing 😊 and how is the weather ☁️ over there?
I never liked coercing my dogs into obedience with food. You get stubborn dogs for sure but the working breeds have a natural inclination do to what they are told.
I do not believe stubborn dogs exist. This is a way of blaming the dog and not the trainer. Unclear/ ineffective training leads an owner to frustration, ultimately blaming the dog 🙏🏼
This is getting kinda scary... I just sat here all day wondering exactly how I could use a prong along with the e-collar. I love these videos man, just keep doing what you do
Awesome!! 🙏🏼 I will 🙌🏻
Been waiting for a video like this from someone for the longest! Thanks man 🙏🏽
Awesome! Thank you 🙏🏼
Hello 👋 how are you doing 😊 and how is the weather ☁️ over there?
I just got my Mal this week and he’s 3 months old - when we train, he gets distracted quickly. How should I remedy? Better treats? E collar?
Never e-collar just maybe focus on getting their full attention with small pieces of chicken or turkey
