It's not often you see a trainer post a video as real life as this, where they openly admit the dog is tough or isn't responding well to their approach. Kudos, Joel.
Joel's the man. I just started watching videos and my dogs are good but th advice he gives is priceless. Just this one thing. "I'm over it".
Agree with most but the correction for going out the door after an ok signal doesn't seem fair to the dog. Ok is a release, heal is a walk with me pay attention to me command that would be more appropriate imo. Prong collar and a few about face maneuvers should solve 90% of that dog's issues.
@@Greyghost760 "we're guna do this allll day!"... Love it!
@@brianhart2925I doubt it, I have a dog that was trained with a prong collar, when the collar is on, after a correction he will listen and stay with me. Put a regular collar on and he is right back to identical behavior at this door.
I love this guy. No nonsense.
“Ok is a release to progress forward WITH me, not to go do whatever you want.” omg, how this clarifies things!
He has clarified this a couple of times in past recent videos
@@SynysterGatez96 not everybody watches all the videos... he needs to clarify it in every video because it DOES clarify things.
@@Tonisuperfly Ok. Here's the video I am referring to just in case ruclips.net/video/rcpZ5OkT9Ho/видео.html
This is a _major_ point to make. Definitely making a bold mental note of this!
Yes. Makes so much more sense
Ive been doing this with my hound, it definitely helps but my neighbors think I’ve lost my mind lol
If they can’t put it together what you are doing, that is on them. 😊
@@michalamuggiernst464 honestly. You might look crazy, but when there dogs are barking their little heads off and your dog is just "🐩"
We have a neighbor who's dogs loose their shit when we walk by in the morning. And my dog just looks at me like "Mom, why they yelling at me? 🥺" Because she KNOWS better than to do the same.
I have a MALINIOS that behaves just like the dog in this video sky1watcher2 tell your neighbours to have your dog or mine for a day and then ask them now you understand right and they will be speechless.
You'll only lose your mind if you let the dog control you 😂
Put the neighbors on the leash then
"In front Dog". I thought my dog was the only one as this is the first I have ever seen in video's like this. I cannot wait to see this dogs progression, as it is my dog
Same here!
My shepherd is just like Dane! Jasper is 10 months and my dad thinks he stays a little in front of me as a way of maybe protecting me. He's rarely been aggressive towards people, only when startled or his 6th sense kicks in on weirdos. I really thought I was doing something wrong because it was taking so many tries but seeing Dane take linger to learn really helps me! Jasper is 10x better than he was a few months ago! His reactivity is still pretty bad with dogs, but just walking has improved so much. Joel doesn't like to use commands for walking but I feel more comfortable if I teach him the Heel command and also doing the leg tap at the same time.
Sorry for the crazy long comment!
My greyador is absolutely a front walker. I get a bit jealous when I see dogs walking next to their owners.
Same! I thought I was crazy until I saw this video. Have a 7 month gsd-ish rescue, and she doesn’t aggressively yank the leash,, but INSISTS on being up front. Every walk looks like this - constant “pops” that she shrugs off. “In front dog”. Who knew?? Will double down with gentle leader. Was beginning do doubt myself, but think we are on the right track after all. Thanks so much for this!!!! Also can’t wait to see the progression.
So was mine. I tried multiple things to stop him from pulling on the leash. He was always in front and nothing helped to correct it.
So, I got sick of it and decided "if he can't walk properly when he's in front, then he can't walk in front". I had an instant massive improvement (3x correction and we were good). Ever since it's been sooo relaxing. He can go sideways or stop. When he walks beside me he's always checking in.
I really had a feeling my dog didn't "get it" that pulling the leash is bad. He was like "dude you say i can run and suddenly i cant, whats up with that." or "you go the other way? Hm okay thats fine with me". When switching it up he understood immediately the new rules and it has been great for us both.
This is my dog, not literally, but damn near. GSD, in front always, high energy, all of it. Joel, thank you for the videos, this one in particular.
My GSD took forever to realize she was not going to be out front. At three years old, she’s FINALLY there. It took a LONG TIME. She is all work, all alert, all the time. But not hyper, just takes her “job” seriously.
I have a 6 mos gsd and she's very smart. This method has done wonders. She's still a puppy but I am so glad no prong. We will keep with it. Definitely a must to make sure she's o my page before we head to the park. Also when we get there we work on my page before we leave the truck. Thanks for the video
my gsd - always wants to be in front but I thought so long as they don't pull that is fine? I guess beeing in front is leaving me. Is it really that big a deal if you are hoping to be able to go off leash?
Same here, he even looks like my dog. Always wants to be in front. Very focussed on everything out there, but me. After a few corrections he even tries whining when he can't go in front 😂 But I'm sticking to the plan and starting to see progress! Thanks Joel
Except mine is nearly 3 and would bolt if he sensed the leash was dropped on the floor! 🙄 working on it. It's getting better but I hurt!
I did the “don’t go forward as long as the dog is pulling” strategy. She really fought me last evening but I persevered. Today we walked the park like we’d been doing it for years, smooth!
This is my German Shepherd exactly! After all the training I have done with him, he took off after a cat , I fell and broke my collarbone now when I heal I will probably have to start from scratch! He is about 70lbs and I’m about 100lbs. So we will see in about 6 to 3 months! I have faith!
This is my favorite video. I have a rescue beagle that I’m working with. At 75 yrs. old I need my dog to walk gently beside me, not pulling me over. Thank you, this will really help !
I just tried this method for the first time today. Wow. Instead of Henry dragging me to the dog park, we walked - leash loose. We spent half an hour going 50 yards, but what a difference. Amazing.
Thank you for finally showing a dog like mine - super strong, got to be out front, always being stimulated by things she sees and smells and not focusing on me. But I have been using your “pop” method on her and I can at least walk with a loose leash now much of the time. But if she sees or hears any other animal forget it lol. I am not interested in going without a leash - not worth the risk to me but I am so glad I can now take her on a normal walk.
I’m so tempted to bring him my Shnauzer so he can use him on his videos. My dog doesn’t pull anymore thanks to his method but he will go crazy when he sees any other human/dog.
I have a schnauzer and he pulls terribly and goes insane with excitement when he sees another dog.
@@lisamallon1773 It seems to be a shnauzer thing! He's lucky I'm patient. haha
I have a medium size dog that can spend an entire day lying down, but when we come home he starts jumping and running around eveywhere during hours if needed. If I go walk him he constantly pulls on the leash. I was able to at least make him look at me when I pull the leach but nothing else. Calling him for it's name, saying to sit, treats etc... nothing works, he doesn't even look at me. He only looks at me with the leash method. And as soon as I give him space to run he just runs so much that when he gets to the end of the leash the leash itself pushes him back so hard that he falls down sometimes. If I get him off the leash he just runs around to very long distances and he doesn't respond to any of my calls. Basically the only way I can make him look at me is with the leash method by pushing him a little bit. Calling him doesn't work at all. He just focuses on sounds that are very far away like other dogs or cats. If I just could make him come to me with calling him it would be already a very good improvement but it has been difficult. He lived in a shelter for some time but he is very used to us. He just acts like he isn't listening to us but he listens to things happening miles away ... For example despite this dog being too excited with other things he still looked at him when he called him, my dog would never do that. I don't know if I just need to keep persisting with the leash pushes when he goes too far.... watching Beck saying that his dog is a tough one when mine is so much worse it's kinda funny.....
@@paulogaspar8295 you need do what he does in the beginning and everything is a no go until they learn to stay with you That’s why he starts it at the door & doesn’t let them move past the doorway further until they stay with you Good luck I have one worse than Dane
Nice to see a (working line) GSD without the excessive sloping topline and the corrupted rear carriage that goes with it.
I thought the same thing. It’s so sad to see.
I know right? I had a working line GSD that acted the same as this one. He was phenomenal in all ways except on leash.
Yes! I thought so too! When I got my first GSD (only 10 months now) I didn't know about about their sloped backs. I looked up pictures and did research and it's so sad to see! Thankfully our pup has a straight back! We think he is pretty much full GSD, so that's even better and even crazier that there's no slope in his back!
I've got a show line female GSD, with the sloped back. She's bred from a line of trials dogs and there's nothing wrong with her structure. To see her run at a full clip is a thing of beauty. Time will tell but I'm not expecting any problems with her hips. Different strokes for different folks and just wanted to say I'm over the moon happy with my SLGSD and try not to let that ruin your day.
@@pete-dog That’s good. I’ve only noticed the sloped backs and just assumed it was a deformity. They’re great dogs!
It's as if he thinks just not pulling is good enough. What if you give praise a few times when he's stays "with you" so he knows more specifically "that" is what you're after.
Our dog is such an out front dog, we've given up and as long as she's not pulling, we're ok. Know that's terrible, but we Have to walk to get the energy out, it's just reality at the moment. Thanks for showing it it doesn't always work right off. Please continue posting how he progresses for you.
I LOVE that u are honest about how tough it is!!!! No worries about the "long" video!!! It was hugely helpful!!! 🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾🎉
These videos have finally taught me how loose leash walking is actually accomplished. The timing and nature of the corrections was always a mystery to me. Here it is all for everyone to see, the good the bad and the ugly. Real life example! Thank you so much. I have worked in person with several professional trainers who did not do this and my dog and I were left frustrated and confused.
Please show more of this I’m interested to see the progress and how it turns out
Did you c part 2 ?
Where can we find part 2?
@@jamesrandal5442 please direct me to part 2 of this dogs training if you can. Thanks!
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!
This is exactly what my dog does. She's an in "front dog" too. She thinks she needs to lead me. It is so frustrating for me because if she's in front of me, she will get in my way and prevent me from walking. It's nice to actually see another dog like mine. Joel, thank you for giving us content like this. Love your videos!
My male GSD is the same way..has no idea where we are going but damn it he is going to be the first one there! I’m commenting because like Rebekah, it’s nice to see that I’m not the only one in this boat! I thought my dog had mental health issues until I started seeing other GSD owners and the problems they are having. I guess misery loves company, or maybe I’m just glad to know that other people’s GSD is as bad or worse than mine! But realize I would not give him up for the world plus 5 gazillion dollars!
OMG - I am in shock. I am dog sitting for a week and was going nuts because the dog always was pulling ahead. I found this video last night and tried your technique this morning. Within a few minutes she was walking perfectly at my side on a loose leash. Wouldn’t have believed it had I not experienced it myself!! Thank-you so much!!
Your breakdown with a dog like this is brilliant. You couldn't explain it any better from start to finish!❤️
I would love to see more progress, this is very similar to how my dog is.
my dog too
Hi Joel, loved the video, because you showed actual difficulty getting some dogs to tune into the owner on a consistent basis. I have a lab that does the same types of behaviors more often than not. As we walk daily we continue to practice “loose leash” walking/reactivity. As you continue working with this dog, hope you will give us video updates on his progress. Keep up the good work.
With your method my GSD almost never pulls anymore on the leash and also when he is off-leash he is checking with me every few seconds if its okay to go in a certain way when he is on his free command which is brilliant in my opinion so thank you for that. He is 13 months old and I started to introduce the proactive stops at 7 month old age and after one or two corrections he walked with me without pulling for more than a half of the walk ( that was his first time). I know 7 months is quite early but within few months he got to this stage.
thanks for posting this-gives us hope for our 1 yr old GSD =)
@@frgpilot haha have the same here
Great video. Training in action is greatly appreciated.
Amazing session as always
Thanks Joel for this great video. Yes we are struggling. Encourages me, that you sometimes are too. Who else shows videos like this? No-one does. Remembers me to my dog Bilbo, Australian Shepard, a front dog also. His own head and thoughts about where to go. Needs a lot of consequence ant patience. But he is a hundred times better than 4 weeks ago, when I started your method. Thanks a lot Joel
My lab is EXACTLY like this. Thanks so much for showing this. Hope to see more on the progress of this dog!!
Thanks for sharing this! And thanks in advance for sharing Dane's progress. Very informative training. You rock!
I really like the step on the leash idea. Thanks for sharing!
This video was everything! I have one dog (out of 4) that I struggle with. I am consistent as hell. She will get on my page at some point. And the next walk it starts all over again. She makes me want to pull my hair out. I want to be able to take her out in public but refuse to do so until she can stop reacting so much on leash. I knew she was a behavior case when I adopted her. I did NOT know how much I still had to learn about dogs. We've always owned between 4-5 rescues at a time. Never had any issues. Until this little gal showed up. She is my cross to bear. But truthfully it will help me so much more with future dogs. I've learned so so much. Between your videos and a behaviorist we flew in from the other side of the state, we are FINALLY seeing progress.
Great video! Looking forward to your insights to the new AVSAB statement.
Thats a nicely structured GS.... long, straight back, no saggy hips... great looking dog.
I'm in your channel today first day and I'm already a fan of your teaching. Thanks!
This is exactly what my Shepherd does. So looking forward to putting your techniques into practice. Thank you
nice to see we are not the only one struggling in progress
I'm learning so much from your videos
Thank you so much for the videos Joel!
At last you've got my dog's twin brother. He is brilliant in everything! Except the WALK. He comes back by himself when called back. Without a leash. But he is ALWAYS in front. Mine is a GSD too, one year old. I'm waiting impatiently for the next video.
I am sooo glad to be able to see this...so helpful n straight! Me n my shewolf will so benefit from your work! An howl from Italy!
I appreciate you explaining every single thing you do as you do it. It was so helpful!
Excellent video. Can’t wait to see Dane’s progression!
The BEST dog trainer on RUclips! Amazing, clear explanation and demonstration! Thank you, Joel
So helpful to see professionals work with the stubborn dogs!
I can totally relate to walking a dog like this! Ty for featuring him
Thank you for the honest video. Bravo
This is exactly how my GS is in every way. So glad to see even you struggling with it.
Appreciate this real life training. My training with my working cocker spaniel is exactly like this. The struggle is real to stay calm when you know they know what you want!
"It ain't easy". Thank you for that.
Look forward to seeing the progress. Great “real” video.
Loved this video! This is how i think most of us feel with our dogs, however if you have any footage of this dog reacting to other dogs in the future that would be very, very helpful!
this is my dog, a border collie that is obsessed with herding me whenever he is of leash, he circles around me while at the dog park, and on walks he is constantly "watching out" and pulls. I've tried the method and it has worked to a certain degree. he does walk next to me, but still ears up, doesn't check on me often, will always be looking for "treats" . If we pass another dog 90% the time we are fine, but if the other dog is too barky and unruly I just can't control him. I do everything by the book,quick ull correction, turn away, walk back, stop.
He is SO stubborn every time I walk my dog I'm left feeling like Joel at the end of this video. Exhausted, frustrated and a little bit angry lol
I'm not the only one! Oh my goodness! I never knew there were other dog owners dealing with this! Thank you for sharing. I feel less alone 🥲
My Shepherd took 12 months to reliably walk at my side, off leash or with the leash thrown over my shoulder. I got her at 3yrs, didn't even know what 'sit' meant, nevermind anything else. It can be done, it can be done with an untrained, adult dog. Handler has to accept it takes as long as it takes. Best wishes to both of you😁👍
Your videos are the best I've ever run into. Your knowledge is outstanding
I see it takes lots of consistency and I appreciate you being so honest. Thank you!!
Beckman you are the best! My 8 month rescue abused lab was at first overwhelming as well as overpowering. Big! I'm 65 and thought at first that I took on too much! I have scars too from life. I watched every trainer on utube no one got near what I was going through with Holly ! Then I found Beckman. God bless you man!!!! Really!!!!! ❤️
Can see me watching this over and over. Glad to know there’s ‘in front dogs’, I was starting to think I had a broken one! Thanks for the Videos love your technique.
I have to say the way you teach is Phenomenal. You’ve been of great help!!
Thank You man .... exactly help I was trying to find!!!
This is me on the streets training my clients dogs, walking around in circles and turning back all the time. People must think i'm crazy, but i couldn't care less kkkkkk
OMGOSH... so funny... I did the same thing for several days in a row, and some of my neighbors came out to ask me if I was ok... lol
@@lorianderson8145 lmao 😂 too funny but I feel ya
@@lorianderson8145 same here haha
I was using gentle leader on my dog the other day. My neighbor saw it and asked me why I did this to the dog...so cruel....😑
@@lizatse1298 My neighbor ask my if it was a muzzle. I showed her that is wasnt but she still refers to it as a muzzle.
I watched all the way through and didn't get bored. It's fascinating to watch the real-time progression of Dane's training even if he doesn't improve as quickly as other dogs.
Another fantastic video
Thank you for keeping it real!
Your best attribute is that you persist and stay consistent and the dog gets it eventually. Many people don't put in the required time. You show us newbies that a dog needs time for a good obedience foundation. Well done.
This is exactly how it is walking my pit, always wants to be in front and really strong. After your last video I was able to get him off the gentle leader and making small progress everyday thanks to all your videos. I did have one question from your previous video on only holding the leash in one hand.
Bro I totally get you! At first my pitbull would throw tantrums just because I would go in a different direction. She wouldn’t bark but she would look at me and refused to move. I would just ignore her and wait till she walked towards me. You got this man!
Did you guys have these dogs at 8 weeks old and feel they didn’t get trained well early on or did you get them later when they were older?
I’m looking into a dog that is known to be stubborn and wonder if these issues are mostly because of initial training
@@heythere6983 I had Coco for about a week today. It turned out she was 9 months. I believe training is contributing factor but their diet and how much love and attention they get is important. Coco was kinda like a vegetable, tired and shy when I met her. (She wasn’t taken care of very well as a puppy) After exercising, training, then affection and showing I was her owner she’s a whole new dog. Patience, calmness, giving structure and really studying dog language really helps. It is difficult but anything to make you and your dog the best version of themselves is worth it. Congrats on your future puppy.
@@cocothepittie7691 Good advice. I have just taken a pit cross from the SPCA here in New Zealand, he is 4 years and 2 months old, and he needs a fair bit of input to get him to follow instructions. Pulls like a bloody locomotive at the moment. A bit scary to bit honest as to whether I can master this.
@@kingy002 damn mark respect respect getting a old abandoned dog. That is a hell of a lucky dog. Coco was scary at first too she literally lunged and barked at a kid who wanted to say hi. I keep away from children because I feel that she’s not ready for kids but when we play or she eats on the patio and teenagers pass by or hears kids scream she’s chill. She wasn’t always like that. I’d say “okay Thank you coco” if she continues the bark she goes in her crate and I make it like I’m guarding the patio or going outside the guard. Walks I need to improve on shes smart enough to stop when I stop but when we walk she gets a little a head. I believe in you man you can be the leader Pulls needs in order to make him the best version of himself.
So helpful to see how you persist with the loose leash walking training. Thank you.
i don't own a dog anymore for like 4 years now and i still watch dog videos
Thank you so much for this video. I was starting to think that I was the only one with a dog like that. I think you are so right about training with cues. I did that with my dogo argentino because she is so strong and noticed that she isn't paying attention to me anymore but is waiting for a cue. She acts just like the GSP in the video. I can't wait to see a follow up on this video, because, like you said, it is a struggle to work so hard al the time and still finding your dog leaving you. It makes me to almost wanna give up sometimes. Good luck and thanks again for this video.
Definitely want to see the progression videos. This is a mirror image of my border collie on the leash, just less size.
Great videos, thanks for posting
Just started using your tips with our new one year old Doberman. Your methods are what works with him, really love the content! Thank you for taking the time to create and share it with us.
When did you come get my gsd to train! This is my dog %100! Big,strong, and yes....OUT FRONT NO MATTER WHAT! I keep doing all that you showed, he is better, but always out front, first video I've seen exactly what I'm going threw. Thanks for taking on what I call a dog of this caliber, it gives me inspiration and the will to keep at it!
Me too
Yes, this is exactly my dog too. Looks exactly like my GSD aswell, infact I think mine is slightly bigger. everything he said Is identical to my rescue. Very strong, very alert, lots of energy. Not paying much attention to me didn't out. I noticed he mentioned gentle leader, sadly I'm unable to use that on mine as he's had severe head injuries, only 6 months ago. Vets think intentional, he's blind in one eye. I've been following the routine and wondered what I was doing wrong but watching this explains a bit. If the trainer is having trouble, no wonder I'm having trouble.
Me too
They are starting to get better on leash walking, start training the heel command now. I've got a 9 month old carolina dog and I been training him for 1 week and there has been huge progress but not out the woods yet. My guess is this process will take about another 9 months because all he knows is to pull, lunge, bark at other dogs, twirl/ jump because he knows he's on a leash.
Please, please show the progression! This is every daily walk with my 10 month old Blue Heeler. Tries to be in front and acts the same way with corrections. Learned a lot from you and it is slowly getting better. Love the leash drop method and I'm working that too. Thank you.
That was amazing , never give up method, you sure get the exercise
Love this! If my husband one day caves in and we get a German shepherd ill do this for sure. Great work!
This is our heeler! Always an in front dog. He's improved with Joel's method tremendously. He still likes to walk in front but keeps his loose leash & check ins within target.
But...
For those that have/had this question, bc he's an in front dog - we started with the "safe" option of the harness bc positive reinforcement ppl shoved it down our throats when adopting & at the pet store.. however we learned *after two years* it was making him *more* reactive. The act of him having something pulling him around his body was the trigger. The minute we had it off & on a regular collar was like night & day. He was finally able to go to dog parks wo causing a kerfuffle.
So, it may be the tool your being recommended to use being the issue. Just a thought..
A harness is very reinforcing for a dog to pull in, that's literally what a harness is for. I don't think anyone should use a harness unless their dog is supposed to be pulling something or if a collar can't be used due to medical reasons. Couple quick pops with a slip lead and majority of dogs learn it isn't fun to pull anymore.
It's a bit confusing bc I've been told both (best to use a harness vs harnesses make things worse). My dogs just turned two, and I'm still trying to figure it out.
I hope you do make a follow up video on this dog. This is how my girl walks on leash always has to be in front. We are working on this but after awhile I start to feel bad to keep giving her corrections. Love your videos!
I'm dealing with the same thing! I give corrections again and again and again. Sometimes they work and we can actually walk for brief periods, but other times my dog just acts really confused. She doesn't get it yet. Pulling/leaving = correction. She just looks at me like I'm a bully when I turn or stop abruptly. For real! She makes me feel so bad :'D
Lol my dog is the same super sad and dramatic when I correct him .
We tried treats first and they were not reinforcing enough for my dog. Treats work for some dogs but not all.
@@b.t4604 she is doing great. She is a 2 year old Akita. She still is an upfront dog but she doesn't pull.
Did you see part 2?
Very interesting candidate to your method. Can’t wait to see him improve.
Great to see a trainer show all the beginning and even the frustrating parts.
Most people I have worked with have bad dog walking habits that they just can't shake. They have "muscle memory" that makes them seek that pull on the leash they have been experiencing for so long. People are much harder to train than dogs!
I gave treats (m+m's) to my client for doing it right. After three weeks of frustration with her, it worked like a charm. She thought it was hysterical, thank goodness!
@@karlsjunior466 😂😂😂
@@karlsjunior466 Did you mark them with a "good girl" 😂
@@NaruIchiLuffy yes I did !!
I like that you use regular collars - and are patiently persistent.
Excellent explaination on this topic very helpful thank you
Thank you for a very truthful video and not cutting out challenged behavior. Thanks for great explanations and encouraging us too.
It is difficult. My 110 pound “in front” nervous dog looks similar, but
when he sees another dog, I hope I can find a tree to wrap him on so I don’t get dragged! A gentle leader has helped this, as a prong was just another pulling device!
You might look into a Canny Collar. Similar to Gentle Leader but attaches behind the lead. Doesn't torque the neck.
Behind the head.
I have an 85 lb stubborn pitty and this video hits home. So strong when he puts his head down and every few seconds and speeds back up to get in front of me after the correction. It was nice to see the stubborness of this dog alongside your persistance. My dog is always so amped up for walks and I feel like he is so used to his route he looks at me like when are we gonna stop messing around and go where we are supposed to go. After watching this I think I may try just abandoning a normal walk and working on this the whole time.
that is extremely heavy for a pitbull.
Thank you! I cannot even express how much you have helped me in walks, training. Everything! Amazing! Thank you so much! Your education is amazing. I use and watch your videos every day!!!!🎉🎉
Love this video! Gives me hope with my 8 year old. If I only knew then what I know now. Thanks Beckman!
Thank you for this. Not all dogs respond to corrections and direction changes within 10 minutes. Ive been doing this with a young working dog for months! He is not lunging and he is not very excitable, but he is like this dog, wandering off ahead every chance he gets. Corrections seem to be just a momentary inconvenience, and he will hit the end of the leash over and over and over, coming back when corrected, and sauntering forward quickly afterwards. Never had such a frustrating animal despiye his sweet nature.
Please let us know how dane progresses or if you have found another technique for dogs that just dont learn from this method!
Mine is also an "in front dog" and reacts to birds in the sky too. Leash corrections don't seem to mean anything, he just gets to the end of the leash abruptly then stops and waits. Look forward to seeing the progression with this dog!
Tried prong collar?
Just found your video's today. Thank you very much, really enjoying your video's.
Thanks for the honesty. Can't wait to see the progression. This is my high drive GSD always wants to be ahead on the 4ft leash and always at the end, but very obient and knows to walk beside me off leash when I say heel.
Please show the progression.
the goat 🐐
From the navy to dog training. Here we are.
JTSUITS!u having the same problems as me?.my shepherd is like the exact same ball of energy
Wonderful video! My dog is just like him! Can't wait to see this dog's progression. Like your honesty in your video by saying he was not 100% there with you after all those minutes. Excellent breakdown of the method. You are so, so good Joel! Thanks for these wonderful videos!!!
Love it! THANK YOU!!❤
This is just like my 20 month old Dutch Herder. She has a gentle leader and I always look like a crazy person when I leave the house. Walking back and for or in a zigzag till we leave my road. Actually once I’ve done that a few times she settles down. Still needs a few corrections on a walk but not too bad. I have a 4year old GSD cross as well and it’s really hard work walking them together. I try to walk them separately about 2 or 3 times a week. Also the older dog is reactive to other dogs. So that adds another level of complication. If you have any advice I’m all ears.
Omg me too. We have a Dutch Shepherd (we didn't have her as a puppy but when she was older (10/11 months old) and we are still training the loose leash and her reactiveness. They are tough dogs! Ofcourse in the house she's a sweety so that kinda stimulates to keep going lol
My best friends Husky is like this, I can say he is a dick but also she gives waaaay too many commands and he gets overloaded. He's really smart and he k own what they mean, but she gives him too much at once and he gets over stimulated
Finally! A video with one *just* like mine!! Been having such difficulty getting consistency anytime we go somewhere new.
Your method help me a lot with my hyperactive ALD. Thank you so much
can't wait to see more of Astra!
Thank you! I have a border collie that acts just like that. This is helpful.
This GSD is exactly the same as mine. Thank you so much for this video. You have regenerated me. I'll keep going . Thank you so much.
Wonderful video. Will continue to be patient with training my Cane Corso.
Look at those paws , he is a gorgeous German Shepherd.
