You should make a book, seriously. You have the most detailed, informative videos out there. The way you break everything down into steps that make total sense is enlightening.
Your puppy has grown so fast. What a star! 🌟⭐🌠 The eye contact is phenomenal. My 20 month Newfoundland's eye contact is ONLY when she approaches lakes rivers and the Seine. She has to get my ok before she does a leap. Eye contact during walks is boring for her but that's SECURITY she has to learn. Recalls are EXCELLENT in any situation. POSITIVE TRAINING has helped me so much to EDUCATE my Newfie. This is my third as the previous 2 had to be put to sleep in June 2018 at the age of 15 years, after a STROKE. Thanks for sharing and caring 🐾🐾🐾🐶🐶🌹🌹
Watson is such a good boy. I still give you credit for the communication I have with my girl, Minerva. I found you when she got dropped at my door over 8 years ago. I haven’t been a perfect trainer, but we have a good bond. I hope you’re still around making videos when I get my next pup.
My dog lived with my mom for a while and picked up bad habits. I have to train him all over again only this time he's 52 pounds and not 5 pounds 🤣🤣. Your videos have helped me from the beginning. He'll be 4 years old tomorrow! Thanks for being with us on our journey together!
Your videos are fantastic. Very instructional and fully on point with proven methods of positive reinforcement and clicker training. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!!!!
It's great to see you uploading more again.🐶 I have a 3yr G.Shepherd who can't or won't have eye contact with me the minute I put he's leash on him. I had previously owned 3 German Shepherds who listen to me and I trained myself the best I could. I got this sweet boy at the age of 3 months I'm almost embarrassed to say, he is a mess. 😏 He is missing out on life because of his behavior. 💔 I don't know what to do. .. YES I HIRE A TRAINER.. obviously it didn't work.😝
Thanku so much sir..this video is like a gift to me..i will restart everything through your videos..and patiently train my koko without giving him stress..again thank you sir..🙏
I don't understand that you don't have more followers and comments! Amazing video AGAIN! Thank you so much for your effort. Do you have a more recent off leash teaching video with Watson? I can only find the 'old' (also very informative) one from a couple of years ago.
how do u anticipate the fact that sometimes you feed from the ground while in this video we consider leave it as default behaviour?greeting from greece! you are so good mate!!!!
@@TrainingPositive Thank you! My 3 month old border collie puppy was free fed before I got her and now she's not very interested in food and treat, so all the training technique based on treat is not working very well. She's smaller in size compare to other border collie puppy so I don't wanna cut the food quantity. I feed her 3 times a day, she's very energetic and has pretty good toy / prey drive.
I know it's not really any of my business, but out of curiosity, if your dog already has a good toy drive, why would you want to build food drive as well?
@@dragonsinneedofcoffee104 Do you mean I can just use a toy instead of treat to do the exact same training with my dog? Maybe it is a good idea to try to train with toys.
@Stan Wong yeah, that was my thought process! Though I'm not somebody with experience using this method, I know of many people who have been successful with using toy drive as a reward. It would probably also work towards physical stimulation as well!
I wish you'd make a video of a dog with much more challenging and sudden walk distractions- a rabbit or squirrel suddenly runs by, another dog or a child runs up to him. I would love to see you use a dog who struggles with impulse control- a bigger training challenge.
You just build up to harder distractions. I usually start with food or toys (whichever is easier for the dog), then move on to the harder one, then add friends making distractions while I work with them, then add really difficult things like high pitch screaming (you can start with yourself making the noise at first if someone else doing it is too hard), friends running around, other dogs (stationary), other dogs running around / playing. Some dogs need it broken down more than others.
Ok, but here is the fault in this paradigm: facing the Prey Drive. You will not positive reinforce your way out of that. This is where like it or not Koehler was rock solid. It doesn't mean you are wrong on other things it means you need to be complete in your Operant Behaviroism. BOOM
@@baddriversofcolga your claims mean nothing--video of your dog responding to drop on recall when prey drive is engaged are the only proof. You won't get that with the Dunbar approach
That's kind of what dogs were bred to be like. They live to work with their owner, that's their entire purpose. Sure they've become more pets than working animals as of late but that drive to please is still there in a lot of breeds.

very true
I agree! I’d buy it right away!
most detailed and the simplest ! I couldn't have made it with my Malinois without his guidance with Solea (RIP I really miss her) :)
Cottonie Hime hell yes!! This is exactly what I was going to ask about!!
Dude you're a legend.
Tab, Zak and Brandon, the three trainers I follow to reward good behavior and avoid training by inflicting PAIN on the dog. Works Great.

Thanks for getting this on video. I'm just ready to start the 1st episode but I do like seeing further ahead to set goals.
My dog checks in with me often but the thought of rewarding him never crossed my mind 😔😭. Thanks for the video. Gonna go train my dog at a park rn.
Very nice work 🐾♥️ Well done Watson 😊
Your videos are fantastic. Very instructional and fully on point with proven methods of positive reinforcement and clicker training. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!!!!
Nice video I started watching your videos probably 10 years ago with your puppy GS
Amazingly trained ur dog

I feel your pain. Im in the same boat.
Thanku so much sir..this video is like a gift to me..i will restart everything through your videos..and patiently train my koko without giving him stress..again thank you sir..🙏
this vid helps me a lot with my Beagle (one of the most stubborn breed, and sniffer maniac) now its like driving a power streering car,..very smooth,.
U deserve way more subs

My dog watched this then looked at me like "Did you get that?"
I love dogs :)
Hey can you make a video on introducing a puppy to an older dog ?
how do u anticipate the fact that sometimes you feed from the ground while in this video we consider leave it as default behaviour?greeting from greece! you are so good mate!!!!
Can you make a video about how to build food drive?
Yes, that's a great idea!
@@TrainingPositive Thank you!

Helpful Af
unbelievable how well trained that dog is at such a young age man you are the fuckin man big ups to you
So, do you have book yet? Please tell me you do.
I wish you'd make a video of a dog with much more challenging and sudden walk distractions- a rabbit or squirrel suddenly runs by, another dog or a child runs up to him. I would love to see you use a dog who struggles with impulse control- a bigger training challenge.
You already know it will not work then.

YESSS!!! THANKS!!
Can you teach your dog how to howl?
Is the german shepherd aggressive?
Ok, but here is the fault in this paradigm: facing the Prey Drive. You will not positive reinforce your way out of that. This is where like it or not Koehler was rock solid. It doesn't mean you are wrong on other things it means you need to be complete in your Operant Behaviroism. BOOM
What do you mean? I desensitized my dog to squirrels using positive reinforcement.
@@baddriversofcolga your claims mean nothing--video of your dog responding to drop on recall when prey drive is engaged are the only proof. You won't get that with the Dunbar approach
If you say so...
Kikopup has a before and after training it out of her terrier and she only uses force free methods.
@@MrsSinkip failure watch the zak George gets his ass kicked to find out why the ideology doesn't work.
I don't really like dogs that are so "addicted" to their owner. It seems they're like a Tamagochi, that lives only for his owner.
That's kind of what dogs were bred to be like.
They live to work with their owner, that's their entire purpose.
Sure they've become more pets than working animals as of late but that drive to please is still there in a lot of breeds.
