I've seen the poke in the neck work on many occasions. I volunteered at a rescue for several years and it was actually a small female dog that taught me that trick. I happened to have a large unruly puppy out for a walk with a small female dog. The female had a litter a while back, not recently. I believe it was because she had raised her own puppies, that she knew how to make this large puppy behave. She went at his neck with a hard poke, just a couple times, and had him under control. Dogs amaze me.
@@absolutelyfookinnobody2843 LOL! I'm sure lots of people got this from Cesar Milan, but unfortunately for me, he didn't exist back when I worked with dogs. I learned the poke from a dog, probably the same way Cesar Milan learned it.
It's so refreshing to have a trainer who works with dogs that don't get one treat and immediately become the perfect dog! Sometimes the dog needs corrected, just like humans!
For anyone reading this: I know that dog training can be difficult sometimes, but you're doing great. Keep up the good work, and your dog (and your own sanity) will thank you for it! ❤️💕
Mad respect from the beginning of the video to the end of the video where the dog is with you off leash just hanging out in the living room. I was shocked to see y'all get there in one session and I'm sure the client was too!
This "playback" method of video is so effective in helping to understand and learn. Real world scenarios. Human meeting. All positive reinforcement! Great video.
Her house is so beautifully clean and well organized! If that is a reflection on her inner life she will be very capable of getting that dog under control and organizing him.
Very impressive! You can see the change in mind in this dog's face and body language. First time meeting you, growling, barking, teeth snapping... First time meeting Prince, ears back, eyes blown&fixed, "mean" face... To: open eyes, wagging back and tail, ears forward and interested, smelling and 'happy go lucky' with you all in the room, offering his playball to you. And those who say you don't do positive reinforcement are liars. This is the best example! But the difference is, that you still address and correct unwanted behavior, setting boundaries and limitations for the dog to live and react and be safe - and be happy! - in. And for the owners to copy. Great work!
I’ve started using that giving treats to my dog from the person who walks up to me when my dog is on the leash. Saw it in one of your other videos, as my dog isn’t confident sometimes and would growl, even though I know the person and we are exchanging friendly conversation. I didn’t think the behaviour would generalise like that, this has been a great learning for me. Thank you, I didn’t know how to work on this behaviour. So relieved, as it’s working.
Thank you for this in house “door bell ring“ how to fix aggression. I can do this! I have two dobes, one overly friendly, one excitable. I can use your methods to direct both of them. I am so much more convenient and in control. ❤️
I have a 13 month old German shep, i love your explanations and if one way doesn’t work try this or this…. You are a great trainer, you have taught me so much. I use all your examples thank you so much
Have this issue in my house. So this was great info. New to yur channel and believe me I’ve been watching ALOT of vids. I’ve been separating my dog in a bedroom w/guest coming over so this was something great for me to see. Thank you!
This is great Joel, thankyou for the thorough explanations. Pls do more teenager dominant pup (6-12 mths) videos as well, in Australia many families got puppies during the COVID lockdown and really need help with puppy issues esp. managing biting, jumping, leash pulling, digging etc. as we’re still in lockdown (since late June) puppies are not getting chances to socialise with other dogs nor are we able to get training/trainers to see our issues in person. Have tried all the positive reinforcement & treat strategies without much success.
Thanks for this video. I never had any conviction about guests feeding the dog treats because she also has some dominance issues and I didn't want her thinking guests were treat dispensers that she could still bully if they happened to not be delivering treats, but I've probably been shooting myself in the foot for a long time because she's extremely food motivated. I could easily see these strategies working for her, and easy to implement as well.
WOW! Joel, you are truly amazing, my friend. I have one really well behaved dog (Boxer) and one not so well behaved(Shiba Inu) though not aggressive. You have help ME so much. I always learn from you. Thanks, and God bless you!
Great video ,would like to see you go to someone's house that has a leash reactive dog and go on a walk with them start to finish, love your down to earth dog training videos.
Incredible that so much progress can be made SO fast when you know what you're doing. Now the owner has to continue that training to reinforce the original amazing success.
Wonderful vid with awesome explanations of the dog body language and step-by-step what to do!!! Helped so much with my street-rescue rednose meeting a utilities guy and my son-in-law🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾❤️
Very informative and interesting. People really need to understand how important it is to understand behaviors bred into certain breeds. Working dogs can be a challenge but totally worth the time and effort it takes to teach them their role in your family.
Super helpful. I have a similar situation with a dog we rescued 2 months ago. I had already learned and tried a few of these tricks; I appreciate the variety of approaches. Thank you.
These are the exact scenarios which ive been deaing with with my NS toller. Not so much guests but myself. Will be reinforcing these steps way harder now, thanks!
Thank u so much, you're walking method works for my two dogs! Every time they start pulling me I just stopped and wait until they sit down and quit pulling and every time they do it I just stopped again and now I can walk with the leashless Almost 100% of the time but my dogs are still puppies so we will continue working on those thank you so much
Wow this is great. We have a 2 year old rescue and have had him for a month. We have people over all the time. The shelter told us he shouldn’t meet anyone for like 3 weeks-a month but the 2nd day we had friends over and gave them all treats to hand him. He does pretty well but is a little protective and likes to nip. But he’s gotten better so thank you for this.
Yes some shelter’s especially those who follow the reward based only nonsense actually set the dogs back by Miles . They get it all completely wrong . Well done 👍 x
This was awesome.. an hour long session was well worth it!! I applaud you with your training methods. I have two 3 year old Yorkies and one will come back when outside but the other will run away and come back later. I have a fenced yard so o don’t allow them outside without a leash. I’m watching your videos and learning more of what to do. I’m going to improve on some things. Thanks again!
I have a medium Australian Shepherd, a neutered male. He became more anxious and reactive to people after being neutered. He would bark at people when they came over. Now we use a high-value ball he loves when people come over. It seems like his anxiety is dissipated by playing fetch with the new person, but this can be obnoxious and so dog focused. He is on a leash at the start just to be safe.
Thank you. I have a 3 year old rescue who doesn’t like anyone comes to my house. I’m watching your great videos and learning/ changing my behaviour with him. Asked a trainer whose method is the same to help me! Hope I would fix the issue, biggest problem is, no matter how much I have to stay at work, I can’t have a dog walker to come to take him for walk. I tried to introduce him to the dog walker but he still goes to the room and guard there.
It sometimes helps to add ‘smell the stranger on my hand’ along with the visual of a handshake. Can also help with introductions between dogs before they meet - takes the edge off the meeting.
Yessah! Been waiting months for a session exactly like that. My dog is in the exact predicament. Lol...and so are we. I am the boss, walk/run/play ball/bike/swim him 9 times a week (no lie, 5 on weekdays and twice a day on weekends). High energy, high reactivity. Plenty of real life experiences along the way w/ other dogs, people outside, bikes, motorcycles, kids etc. I believe he needs the reset on the people coming over stimulus like you said. I would love to offer him up for a video, but I'm guessing Hawai'i is not close. I guess I need to find a trainer willing to try what you demonstrated. If you're ever in Hawai'i doing a "road show", I've got the dog content for you. Mahalo!
That’s great that you exercise your dog so well! Most people don’t. How much obedience, though? Exercise and exposure is all fine but if there’s no obedience and impulse control, that’s when you run into problems. Dogs need the obedience piece, as well.
@@sfdf1979 He has so much energy, obedience is an all day event. Sit, stay, place, sit at gate/door before being motioned to come, loose leash walking right at my side, leave it, walking past dog charging up to the fence, cats, sit and stay when stimulus like motorcycles go by, sit and wait for break command, sit/come/touch/ for food, long leash come in open spaces, out when playing fetch/tug, etc. Any suggestions?
@jjamo2, I hope you and your loved ones are okay. I'm so sorry for the devastation you have endured and is continuing. My thought and prayers are with you and your friends and family and all the people of Hawaii. I hope we hear back from you. ❤️
@@User7688.--_ , Mahalo for your kind words and well wishes. I and those around me are fine, as we live on 'Oahu. Having said that, our Hawai'i community is not fine, and the heartache continues each time more bad news comes to light along with stories of harrowing experiences. If there is to be hope in all the sadness and grief, it lies with our aloha spirit, as everyone, in whatever way they can, are offering up support in whatever is needed. Having a new pup, I am also reminded of the needs of our little friends, and so we are also mindful to care for the Maui Humane Society. Malama pono.
My dog hates people but loves other dogs. I have a red heeler she is a mouthy breed and big ego. I chose a female dog to avoid dominance but she is the most stubborn and hard headed dog I have ever owned. She is also super intelligent.
Hi Joel, one of my 4 dogs is like this dog, but only with guest dogs. I will be using this method the next time my niece and her two dogs, which this dog doesn’t like, come to visit. I wish there was a way to get more guest with dogs to visit so that I could work on this behavior with the dog more. Totally enjoyed the video and keep up the good work.
Teach the dog the "shut up" command. My 2.5 year old Aussie mix will not listen to my shut up command when she is outside. But when she is inside the house, she will obey. She knows I am her boss and her protector whenever she is inside. When she is outside, there is too much distraction because of the highway traffic. Also, when she is outside, she will constantly look around for moving objects, especially walking humans and bicycles. So, it is not just fear but also her extreme territorial behavior.
this is really cool I will work on this my family and my guests are terrified of my boy so this might work I'm excited and I appreciate everything you do
This is the first neighbor dog that barks every time I come outside. I can walk over give her a treat, pet her. Every single time. In backyard she barks. She’s extremely stressed in her yard, tail up, hair up and just by herself. Very insecure. First dog I met like this and that I haven’t won over
I had an neighbor's aggressive dog that I could only interact with through a chain link fence. I would stand about 10' back and reach my arms up to make myself tall. Then I'd just stand there and let the dog burn up all its energy and tear its throat barking as if I were Freddy Kruger (the dog had a whole yard to escape into). When it started getting tired/bored, I'd make a little jump motion and look it in the eye to start the whole process over while it was already tired. When I had time, we'd just keep going like that until the dog actually gave up hard enough to walk away. The first session took 20-30 minutes. It ended up taking a few such sessions (the owner was clearly negligent) but it got quicker each time. Eventually, we got it down to about 5 seconds. The dog would hear someone walking past in the front yard and come barking and running. But then it'd instantly droop its ears and tail and go back to the back yard as soon as it confirmed the noise was just a pedestrian.
It is so interesting this video came up. My 16 month old GSD barked at my sister when she came by yesterday. I was able to send her to her place (she listened) and went but wanted to whine. But she stayed on her place the entire time. My sister was afraid but I have a divider that kept Luna out of my kitchen where my sister was. Luna goes to doggy day care and gets walked everyday but due to covid we can’t have people over like we did 2 years ago. So sad. I will use the desensitize method when my sister comes back.
Did I understand correctly, that she walks him "5 times a week" and Joel is surprised by that?! Everytime I watch one of these "dog trainer shows" I am dazzled about people keeping their dogs only in their house (and maybe backyard) and dont walk them. To me that explains a lot of the behavioral issues some of these dogs have. In Germany kids who want to get a dog get told by the parents that "you will have to walk the dog 3 times a day - wether it is cold, snowy, rainy - and the first walk will be early in the morning before going to school". I never met a dog owner who doesn't walk his dog at least twice a day or uses a crate. And Prong Collars are forbidden by law.
I do not understand if Joel is surprised in a good or a bad way by 5 walks a week. Maybe this is a lot for a dog in USA? For a German I feel like this isnt enough. like you said I am walking my dog 3-5 times a day!
This is my dog. He barks and growls and lunges. He would portably bite if I let him get close. He just turned 5 months which seems young to be growling and lunging at people.
Would love to see you working more with this type of breed ( Border Collies) I have a 10 month old Border Collie and she is the reason I started watching RUclips videos on dog training. I have been around many many dogs but I have to say that Border Collies are special and very very different from other breeds. I didn't beleive it till I brought mine home. So I would love to see more videos of you working with this breed.
In touching the dog's neck, I wouldn't reach across the dog's nose to get to the other side of the neck (as shown at 3:00). Touch the side closest to you to reduce the biting trigger.
My dad has 2 rescue dogs labs and man were they abused...even after going there for years they would still come at me or anyone when i walked in the door....it took them 5 years to get used to me walking in the house ...needless to say my father was not prepared to house rescue abused dogs. i wish i had known about this channel years ago.
Good stuff. Makes more sense than Cesar from an owner application standpoint point. Wish you were around in our lives when we had our girl. Ridgeback, pretty fear aggressive and couldn’t have anyone in the house.
A) Dog is a mix and the mix is guard-dog (can see it in his mouth, which is too wide for herding-dog). Behavior arises from that mix. Manic from herding, aggressive from guard. B) Treats soothe guard-dog side, but herd-dog side doesn't respond to treats. Herd-dog needs chase, rope-play or mental-stimulation. Could combine treat and play with a puzzle-treat, filled-Kong, etc.? C) That dog isn't exercised enough. Not physically and not mentally. Chuck-it tennis-ball thrower or frisbee 3-5 times a day for half-hour each. (more...) D) Always feed in a "maze" feeding bowl. E) Clicker-training wouldn't be wasted. Herding-dogs often respond better to clickers than to treats. And any training accomplished feeds dogs need for mental-stimulation.
@@solideomusical - That frantic look in a herding-dog's eyes when they are locked-up too long. The snapping nips too. Everything says that dog's wound-up too long without expending mental and physical energy. Give him a few sheep to herd for an hour and he'd be much more relaxed.
@@fingersm - Leash-walking's important, but won't quell a herding-dog's need for focus. Ball is just a surrogate for herding. Dog wouldn't become more reactive after herding, then it won't be more reactive after chasing a ball for a half-hour either. What you're missing is the breeding. You generalize all dogs into the same little-box created in your minds. Your solutions work for the guard-dog side, but do nothing for the herding-dog side.
The moment I feelt I ever needed to resort to locking away my dogs - MY FAMILY MEMBERS! - I would do some serious thinking about myself, my role with my dogs and whether I offer them what THEY need! First, isn't this some kind of herding dog? Then he is a WORKING dog, not (only) a cuddly four-pawed buddy. In reality, she would run for hours on end to fo a herding job so good, that no human could replace him. These dogs are so smart, you can do incredible things with them. 🤔
Well, in my experience, the treat stuff works with dogs that are very food motivated & coming from an excited mindset (and reacting because of that) rather than from an insecure/territorial mindset. How would you approach those dogs that won't care about any treats? 🧐
So. I guess Alaska is not considered close to San Diego County! LOL 😂 Wish you were closer (or I was) would love some work with my standard poodle but your videos have been a huge help. Thank you!!
I have said this before, stop getting a herding type dog. They r not meant for people/families that don't have a job for them. They belong on a farm. They r going to herd and snip at people, children and other animals. I know people adopt dogs that are cute or seem loving, but do research on type of dog you're getting.

There are some positive punishment (yanking) but just a bit.
Great advise -- especially reconditioning him from having to be put back in "the room" which would only reinforce negative behavior.
Her house is so beautifully clean and well organized! If that is a reflection on her inner life she will be very capable of getting that dog under control and organizing him.
That was pretty amazing. You make it easy to really understand and grasp these methods and put real life work to prove it

Herding dogs are always the most suspicious of strangers at least from what I’ve seen.
It sometimes helps to add ‘smell the stranger on my hand’ along with the visual of a handshake. Can also help with introductions between dogs before they meet - takes the edge off the meeting.

this is really cool I will work on this my family and my guests are terrified of my boy so this might work I'm excited and I appreciate everything you do
Prince is awesome he is good assistant for sure.
This is the first neighbor dog that barks every time I come outside. I can walk over give her a treat, pet her. Every single time. In backyard she barks. She’s extremely stressed in her yard, tail up, hair up and just by herself. Very insecure. First dog I met like this and that I haven’t won over
I had an neighbor's aggressive dog that I could only interact with through a chain link fence. I would stand about 10' back and reach my arms up to make myself tall. Then I'd just stand there and let the dog burn up all its energy and tear its throat barking as if I were Freddy Kruger (the dog had a whole yard to escape into). When it started getting tired/bored, I'd make a little jump motion and look it in the eye to start the whole process over while it was already tired. When I had time, we'd just keep going like that until the dog actually gave up hard enough to walk away. The first session took 20-30 minutes. It ended up taking a few such sessions (the owner was clearly negligent) but it got quicker each time.
Eventually, we got it down to about 5 seconds. The dog would hear someone walking past in the front yard and come barking and running. But then it'd instantly droop its ears and tail and go back to the back yard as soon as it confirmed the noise was just a pedestrian.
@@steamer2k319 maybe I’ll try that
It is so interesting this video came up. My 16 month old GSD barked at my sister when she came by yesterday. I was able to send her to her place (she listened) and went but wanted to whine. But she stayed on her place the entire time. My sister was afraid but I have a divider that kept Luna out of my kitchen where my sister was. Luna goes to doggy day care and gets walked everyday but due to covid we can’t have people over like we did 2 years ago. So sad. I will use the desensitize method when my sister comes back.
Wining from a dog is actually not a choice.
10:18 ah it’s the Pavlov’s dog, trick doorbell, treats... ❤
Fantastic👍😁real time stuff, im getting so much out of your posts, mgself an my dogs thank you from the bottom of our hearts 😊😊
This is so helpful because my dog is like that... Will bite and lunge at new people in a snap! Even on walks (where he wears a muzzle always).
Fabulous. Thank you for taking the time to show us a private home session!
Joel….you need to do voice over work for doggie characters
Haha I commented a while ago saying the same thing!
Did I understand correctly, that she walks him "5 times a week" and Joel is surprised by that?!
Everytime I watch one of these "dog trainer shows" I am dazzled about people keeping their dogs only in their house (and maybe backyard) and dont walk them. To me that explains a lot of the behavioral issues some of these dogs have.
In Germany kids who want to get a dog get told by the parents that "you will have to walk the dog 3 times a day - wether it is cold, snowy, rainy - and the first walk will be early in the morning before going to school".
I never met a dog owner who doesn't walk his dog at least twice a day or uses a crate.
And Prong Collars are forbidden by law.
I do not understand if Joel is surprised in a good or a bad way by 5 walks a week.
Maybe this is a lot for a dog in USA?
For a German I feel like this isnt enough. like you said I am walking my dog 3-5 times a day!
I have a trainer who is telling us exactly the same thing but I believe you said it more clearly. Thank you. Can’t wait to continue Cali’s training.
This is my dog. He barks and growls and lunges. He would portably bite if I let him get close. He just turned 5 months which seems young to be growling and lunging at people.
Would love to see you working more with this type of breed ( Border Collies) I have a 10 month old Border Collie and she is the reason I started watching RUclips videos on dog training. I have been around many many dogs but I have to say that Border Collies are special and very very different from other breeds. I didn't beleive it till I brought mine home. So I would love to see more videos of you working with this breed.
You are so right about border collies! Amazing dogs. But they are not a good breed for a novice dog owner.
In touching the dog's neck, I wouldn't reach across the dog's nose to get to the other side of the neck (as shown at 3:00). Touch the side closest to you to reduce the biting trigger.
What a nice dog xx 👀 hopefully it comes right for him
My dad has 2 rescue dogs labs and man were they abused...even after going there for years they would still come at me or anyone when i walked in the door....it took them 5 years to get used to me walking in the house ...needless to say my father was not prepared to house rescue abused dogs. i wish i had known about this channel years ago.
Teaching that collie a couple of tricks a month will go a long way to keeping it from going mad
I would also be nicer to guests if they went in and out of my house giving me food lmao
Man you are a magician with dogs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good stuff. Makes more sense than Cesar from an owner application standpoint point. Wish you were around in our lives when we had our girl. Ridgeback, pretty fear aggressive and couldn’t have anyone in the house.
A) Dog is a mix and the mix is guard-dog (can see it in his mouth, which is too wide for herding-dog). Behavior arises from that mix. Manic from herding, aggressive from guard. B) Treats soothe guard-dog side, but herd-dog side doesn't respond to treats. Herd-dog needs chase, rope-play or mental-stimulation. Could combine treat and play with a puzzle-treat, filled-Kong, etc.? C) That dog isn't exercised enough. Not physically and not mentally. Chuck-it tennis-ball thrower or frisbee 3-5 times a day for half-hour each. (more...)
D) Always feed in a "maze" feeding bowl. E) Clicker-training wouldn't be wasted. Herding-dogs often respond better to clickers than to treats. And any training accomplished feeds dogs need for mental-stimulation.
What do you mean by 'manic'?
Ut wrong. 3-5 times a day chasing a ball will make a dog more reactive. Need to walk him/her on leash .
@@solideomusical - That frantic look in a herding-dog's eyes when they are locked-up too long. The snapping nips too. Everything says that dog's wound-up too long without expending mental and physical energy. Give him a few sheep to herd for an hour and he'd be much more relaxed.
@@fingersm - Leash-walking's important, but won't quell a herding-dog's need for focus. Ball is just a surrogate for herding. Dog wouldn't become more reactive after herding, then it won't be more reactive after chasing a ball for a half-hour either. What you're missing is the breeding. You generalize all dogs into the same little-box created in your minds. Your solutions work for the guard-dog side, but do nothing for the herding-dog side.
good comment
Our dog loves people and dogs but she will alert until they are accepted. Its great because people have tried to gain entry before
Great video, so helpful 👍
The moment I feelt I ever needed to resort to locking away my dogs - MY FAMILY MEMBERS! - I would do some serious thinking about myself, my role with my dogs and whether I offer them what THEY need! First, isn't this some kind of herding dog? Then he is a WORKING dog, not (only) a cuddly four-pawed buddy. In reality, she would run for hours on end to fo a herding job so good, that no human could replace him. These dogs are so smart, you can do incredible things with them. 🤔
Yes , it is a herding breed. Definitely not getting enough exercise to help calm the mind.
Just got in a bichon frisee with simular behaviours. She has learned that people show fear and that she can claim things.
Awesome work !
Dude you're way better than Cesar Millan
Dog looks happy to be 'worked' intelligent working dogs can gi neoritic
Great session very interesting!
Bad owners. Period she yells aye !! Like that’s a human who understand the words out her mouth lol 😂 gotta love humans
High quality dog Trainer, love youre content ♥️
Well, in my experience, the treat stuff works with dogs that are very food motivated & coming from an excited mindset (and reacting because of that) rather than from an insecure/territorial mindset.
How would you approach those dogs that won't care about any treats? 🧐
So. I guess Alaska is not considered close to San Diego County! LOL 😂 Wish you were closer (or I was) would love some work with my standard poodle but your videos have been a huge help. Thank you!!
My dog freaks out when new people come in but if you feed her bacon, you will become her favorite person, even if you never give her bacon again.
Great trainer, beautiful woman and a dog making progress. Can't beat it!!
Very helpful, thank you!
A favourite toy that only guest gives the dog also works and the dog only has the toy while the guest is visiting.
Great work. How long did you spend with the client?
I have said this before, stop getting a herding type dog. They r not meant for people/families that don't have a job for them. They belong on a farm. They r going to herd and snip at people, children and other animals. I know people adopt dogs that are cute or seem loving, but do research on type of dog you're getting.
My boy just needs some socializing 🤦♂️
I live your tips but you're so entertaining 😂
you deserve more views
I know, right! He should also have a lot more subscribers.
