Watch Eric Salas demonstrate how to take a show dog that will not behave or stand on a table and correct this problem. The solution to this problem is the first step in fixing; gaiting problems, stacking issues, pulling on a lead, pulling away from judges. Many videos available on www.EricSalasWorkshops.com
Eric is available for private and group training workshops, in-home animal behavior sessions and as a guest speaker.
The beautiful song at the end is called "The Bridge" and is one of the new songs from the legendary Rock n' Roll Hall Of Fame artist Roger Fisher Founder and former lead guitar player for the band Heart Please visit his website at www.RogerFisher.com
Just what I needed. I’m a complete novice when it comes to showing. In 2 months I want to show my dog for the first time. I also noticed that if I keep my dogs head straight, his legs don’t move anymore, and he doesn’t try to sit when checking if he is intact.
Eric Salas, thank you so much for sharing this with us. My BRT was backing off the judges and now he is comfortable and relaxed when being examined.
No one is teaching this way. It's fantastic! My rambunctious dachshund "got it" right away. He loves it and barks at me to get me to work with him on the table.
Just a note here....he went out with a handler a month ago and finished in two weeks with three 5 pt majors and a 4 pt major. He's only 14 months old. I did notice upon returning home that he now tucks his tail and seems anxious on the table. My guess is the change to a more tight pull up on the table rather than the more gentle head straight method was intimidating for him. He will be fine but I do wish your method would be adopted by everyone. It's clear to see that for the dog it's a completely different experience. I think the old way created resistance.
This video was my introduction to Eric Salas and from then on, I was desperate to attend one of his workshops. I managed this toward the end of last year (I think!) and it was one of the best things I did. I am now going to try for a follow up session at some point when he's back in the UK. If you're wondering how worthwhile his workshops are, then I assure you, they are.
Eric is amazing! Just saying, working on getting him to North Florida for 2016!
I am so glad I found this video. As a new owner/handler I have had so many other people try to help me understand how to stack for conformation. This is Step One and looking forward to the next.

I’ve been looking for a video like this for a while. As I’ve recently been stating to show my puppy.
Great video and site. I just got a pup that I plan to show and will start working with her. I have shown dogs before but you do pretty good things with them and give great tips.
hi ur videos are very usefull but can u post a close up video for how to lock pinky in and creation of saddle for bigger dogs.we haven't got it perfectly from long shot
Can you show a close up of the hand placement on the collar. I heard mr salas mention something about placing his fingers a certain way on the chain.
El Guicho I totally agree! I’m looking forward to this.
amazing
Cool one
I wish I could see the tehcnique from 3:30 in the video. where would I find this more detailed or close up?
I'm not sure I'm correctly understanding what to do with the hand. These are both tiny dogs in the video but I tried it with my deerhound puppy and he still is flinging his head about. Does this work on a larger dog, and if so, what adjustments would I need to make please?
Love this❤❤needed this
i loved you video.
I can't see properly how you put this collar on the dog Eric, could you possibly show a close up shot please...the part where you hold the head straight?
Many thanks
Do you have a video on free stacking large dogs?
Could you repeat the chain step on close-up pls and thxs !!!!
I'd also be interested to see this close-up and also, how you will hold the head of a bigger dog with a different head shape.
Sir Eric Salas, can you make a video doing this on a Rottweiler, also make him not to look around if the Judges will inspect him or touch him, opening his mouth, thanks in advance..... God bless
Sir if u have Saint training videos please send once
Brilliant. Wondering if you have a Video on getting a dog to move up and down in front of the judge without stopping halfway?
I love all your videos! I wish you lived in Canada closer to me. I am looking for some conformation handling classes but it hasn't been easy to find any in y town.
come visit me in Iowa! www.K9-World.com
Thanks so much for your wonderful demonstration. I was in tears today because I have a dog that freezes constantly in the ring. He is a real nice boy, but he absolutely refuses to walk in the ring. He walks everywhere else in the world, but the show ring seems to scare him to death. How can I help him?
Watch the video before training starts and also you need to get yourself under control before you go into the ring your dog is picking up on your nervousness
I really need help with my yorkie pup to show
Me too. I have a lovely boy who refuses to walk in the ring. He will take a couple of steps, then freeze, and look at me like I am stupid. It's so frustrating because I feel he is doing it on purpose.
Cavaliers...the bane of my existence with their 2 ton butts
I am just about to get started on training in just over a week but I want to make sure I get the correct lead-where can I buy the one used on the CKCS here? My boy is also a CKCS and highly spirited... to say the least LOL 😂 Also is there a video that shows how to use the lead correctly up close? Eric Salas your videos just may save me so I can correctly train my dog!!!
Eric Salas Thank you!
What type of lead was it?
that's RIGHT
Any close up view on how he hold the dog in the neck?
Watch the video called the complete head straight video.
Is this a king spaniel or American cocker spanile?
a cavalier king charles spaniel
you should see the How to teach a dog to sit and stand
How many times a day or week should we practice head straight ?
Every chance you get.
Thank you for answering how do you know the dog is good with head straight
Hello! I am a complete novice in dog showing! Does this work the same way on giant breed dogs? I have St Bernards! Thank you!
Yes it does!
My puppy always sits when I try to do that! I dont know what to do and make him not to sit.
The problem is not the setting the problem is that you don’t have a strong enough bond with that dog so it sits anytime you want to do something you have to have fun you have to play games you have to put yourself in a leadership position by asking the dog to do something that you want to do then praise and reward and keep repeating watch my video we’re training starts
I’m going to a dog show too
I cannot see your hand so I cannot try it with my EBT girl. Please put better vid on
There is a better video on
It’s called the complete head straight video.
I’m sorry this video was not good enough for you.
People should remember that your dog did not choose you. You chose to make it a part of your family and life. Your dog doesn't have much choice in anything. You make the decisions for it. You owe it to treat it well for being a part of your wish. Dogs will show you respect if you respect the dog. In all honesty I am sad to see this video and some of the handling here. Some dogs love shows and some dogs don't like it and would much rather be outside running in a field. Still some owners only care about what they got the dog for. Did you know that animals carry our burdens? Thoughts, aches and pain. They are willing to do anything for you, and this is how we treat them. I am sure the lady on the video loves her dog. She seams like a warm hearted person. Usually people don't think about these things and that's where we go wrong. Please, just because it's a small dog, you shouldn't handle it like you do. Lifting it around and placing it in unatural positions. Would you do the same with a rotweiler? The dog is using it's paw not because it doens't have any respect, but to signalise to you that "I don't like this mom, can you please stop". (btw I say it cause I don't rememeber if they said he or she in th video) I've trained my dog to do alot of things but NEVER with force, only with treats and love. It's never fun to practise something if all you get is negative feedback.Even when this dog stood still it at first, it didn't get anything in return. Would you work on things you hated for someone who did not consider how you feel to get nothing in return? Just think about it please. Animals are not our toys! They are living creatures with their own personalities and they need to be respected and loved for who they are, just like we do. I'm sorry this is long. It's not only about this video. I've seen too many now. Be good to your beloved little friends!
Beathe Haaland yes i do have a rottweiler that i do this with, she is very happy to play with other dogs and be admired at shows. she is happy protecting my wife and children and working hard daily pleasing mommy and daddy and in return she gets love, food, a house, warmth but she knows she is a dog and im a human and so does everyone else in my house. it isnt for lack of respect its for love and before you try to speak for people who have work dogs just know id rather man handle my dog and train him rather than some uneducated child because their parents never TRAINED them to understand behavior around a dog and agitates my dog to scare or injure the child defending itself then society puts him down because no one will adopt an "aggressive" 130lb rott puppy right? if you love your dog no matter what breed protect and that means train them how you see fit.
Bless. This video is really disappointing but unfortunately something I see a lot of in conformation. I get it’s a competition but they are dogs who deserve the time to teach them fairly and patiently. You will have a happier show dog if you take the time to work with them like a partner instead of a dictator.
They aren’t hurting the dog or mishandling the dog..they are trying to communicate to the dog what they wish him to do. That dog is wagging it’s tail, and is likely a cherished pet. It’s not wrong to train your dog, it’s your responsibility! My dogs enjoy training interactions, enjoy going to dog shows and enjoy going out on excursions. Untrained dogs are left at home, in kennels, on chains, because they can’t be trusted to interact with people or other dogs. That is a sad human failure. This is merely training. Don’t read something emotional into this that doesn’t exist.
I show my lab and I understand where you're coming from, but you're wrong overall. He is the happiest son of a gun in the world no matter what I do with him. I've trained him in duck hunting, obedience, agility, and showmanship and he has his favorites but he does what I tell him because we have a mutual respect and he gets to run around chasing birds when he's out of the ring. And stacking is the most natural and comfortable position for a dog. Many naturally walk into stacks. But show dogs are pampered and loved the vast majority of the time. Some owners/trainers suck, but this guy seems alright.
Agreed. Training should be a nice memory to the dog.
It is amazing how using pain can be so quick and effective. Pressure on the nerves in the neck gets results so much faster that taking time to teach the dog. It's not really cruel as these dogs are not pets they are here to win prizes. Awesome.
+Alex Johnson I was thinking the same thing... :-(
+Alex Johnson You must be kidding.
there was NO pain inflicted on the dog. you can see how happy the dog is when she's walking him - his tail is wagging ...
uh, what. forget about whether or not he did hurt the dog, you literally just said inflicting pain on these dogs isnt cruel because they have a different job. wow.
Dog show people - wierd
