I had gotten a baby Rottweiler when she was 4 months. She was starved, beaten, tased, and had Parvo. When we got her back to health, she was so unruly. With your help, I swear she is so amazing now. She is almost 2 and in great health. I work for a large pet corporation and when I talk to pet parents who are having issues, I send them to your videos. You are so amazing. You have taught us so much
whoever did that to her deserves to freeze in the lake of blood in hell
It takes amazing to create amazing! Bless you for helping this pup!!
Yay! Great owner you are!!!
Why the breeder sold the dog to this sadist is beyond me.
@@ILLKILLU4THATwhy tf did you comment then
Update on Ace - I have gotten him involved in playing some of the games ruclips.net/user/postUgkx1_veP7CApJK_GWy_TczaMciuG64PqJeU and I can see a difference in his confidence already! My other dog played along and he became intrigued - now its a daily part of our routine - about 3 times a day we do the shell game and the muffin tin game. I am so grateful for coming upon your training techniques!
A tired dog is a well behaved dog
Thank you for including that
I feel that so many people don't understand how bored their dog can get, and how that can translate to unwanted behaviors
I’m definitely one of them I’m a first dog parent and I have a American bully living im a apartment and I always wondered why he couldn’t never stay still or he distracted
@@shealasha4929 Mental stimulation is also equally important as Physical exercise ! A lot of ppl will “walk” their dog and consider that to be the “only” exercise a dog “needs” but dogs require more than that! So make sure to keep his mind busy too’! Weather it’s toys… interactive
Toys.. ( like Puzzles, kongs, etc), Trainning sessions which the dogs need to use their brains to think of what it is u want of them, etc!
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! ❤️💕
What a lovely thing to say. You seem like a very kind and thoughtful person. Thanks for the encouragement!
@@aslrunner thank you! I once heard a quote that I loved. It said, "Always walk around with a half-smile; this way, if anyone ever needs a friendly smile, you're halfway there!" ❤️💕
Most useless comment on every video
@@tylermartin7245 just trying to spread positivity and encouragement. ❤️💕
@tylermartin7245 your comment is the only pointless one
My hearts breaks to see how abused he looks. I am soo happy he was very fortunate to be in your care. Your so amazing. I love your heart for these abused animals and the passion for canines. Most of all, the patience to deal with the "pet-parent" who needs 99.5 % of the training.
My heart echoes your feelings ... further words escape me
What makes you think he looks abused?
Abused 😂😂😂😂
@@KrystalessR because Will says he's neglected and abused, he's training him to be able to rehome him
@@KrystalessR those awful cropped ears for a start, poor dog.
Regarding crate training, I wish to underscore the supreme importance of “calm leadership from a place of love.” You MUST NOT BE ANGRY when putting your dog into the crate, though you may be frustrated. Time-outs must always be an opportunity for your dog to CHILL OUT; the crate must not be seen as a punishment but, rather, a sanctuary! I achieved this for my dog by keeping the crate well cushioned, always open when vacant, and always stocked with treats that I had surreptitiously planted there. I also made a habit of depositing my dog’s favorite toys in there whenever I found them lying around elsewhere and unattended. Location of the crate may also play a role. Some dogs may exist who want some privacy when chilling out, but most are probably very social, like my “party girl” who wants to be “up in the mix” even when she could use a nap. As such, her crate was not in a back room but, instead, in a high-traffic living space. You’ll know you’re doing crate training right-meaning, in such a way that your dog accepts it as a sanctuary-when they go into the crate without prompting, just to chill out and relax.
Learning that becoming frustrated doesn't mean you become angry is the very definition of controlling one's emotions. I noticed how worked up I became when becoming frustrated and then realised I'm the issue and not the pooch. Then you learn it's basically the same with humans.
Yes, I was just explaining to my daughter how extremely sensitive to our moods that dogs are and that conflict between us effects them. Just like before her father and I parted ways so she totally understood that. She had been getting overwhelmed by her 11 month old Labrador male and using the harsh punishment style of dog training, of which I completely disagree and find very upsetting myself. All this accomplished was that our dogs (two small Yorkies too) would run to me and hide behind me when she would enter the room angry. I finally watched this video and she has totally agreed that it makes complete sense and has had immediate benefits and results already.
@@AngeloXification Very well stated. Thank you.
Thank yum this was very helpful. We just adopted a 6 mo large pup and this advice is perfect
When we got our last dog, my boys were young. 4 and 6…. I told them “when Benson is in his ‘house’, (door open napping or whatever) you do not go in there to get him out. You can call him, then it’s his choice, but that’s his safe place”. They understood, did that, and worked very well w 2 rambunctious little boys always excited to see their dog.
I take my 3 niece and nephew dogs for a walk together every morning. Three different ages, breeds, personalities. In the 3 weeks that I've been watching your videos, we have made such progress that I cannot even believe the difference. And I have zero previous experience with dogs. And I'm not even their main gateway to their food and shelter. The very anxious dog seems so much happier and more relaxed as she loves the structure. We've gone from 2 super leash pullers that were hurting my back and no following of commands to delightful walks, heeling all the way, sitting and staying off leash, all three sitting simultaneously at the edge of the road and every other threshold area... and more. Truly life changing!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I’ve only ever posted like 5 RUclips comments ever but this deserves one. Easily the best info any new dog owner can get in one simple video. My shepherd husky was a menace when she was younger until I started doing everything you talked about, including other training methods such as leash pressure/heeling/focus/recall- (touch). She is an absolute angel now and the dog I dreamed of having. Ppl underestimate the basic needs of a dog and what It can do to help mold them. Great video
I’ve not listened to anyone talk about dog training that I’ve entirely agreed with, until now. Absolutely 100% solid advice. Beauty bro.
Yes love the threshold exercise, great reminder. I'm a petsitter and have a 80 pound St Bernard who is a leash puller and reactive to other animals. food motivated, have my treat pouch. I have been practicing for 1 week. eye contact, calm and empowered, what a huge difference! 🙏
❤❤❤❤
I can't get over how precious this little boy is! Great job!
Oh no you can try it as well
Aww 🥰 you got a dog of you own?
Tiring my border collie out is actually easy. Patience and just having fun is everything to us. We train everything every day over 5-15 min sessions through out the day. Currently, we are working on heel training (it always spooks me just how quickly he absorbs proper instructions). Having him work for his meals is probably the best thing I've ever done for him.
Cheers for the videos and guides on your website, Will. Great stuff.
Border collies are Legit THE smartest dogs out there!!! They can lead up to Hundreds of commands/tricks!!! They are HIGHLY motivated and loyal and are also Working dogs! So continue those sessions even as he gets older cuz they Need a Lot of mental and physical stimulation ! agility is an excellent outlet for them! It’s also an excellent bonding experience as well! I highly recommend that! ❤
I’m not a professional but it’s good to see and hear someone officially advocate for some of the principles I have used for years. In preparation for the day he might have lost his hearing, I even trained my dog to come when extending my arms like you are showing. Sadly he succumbed to heamangiosarcoma a year ago at the age of 10. If/when I get another dog, I’ll be looking to your channel for guidance.
I'm sorry for your loss.♥
I've had a few behavioral issues that I've been working through with my puppy and it's been hard not to feel frustrated and not be calm. Doing better with keeping calm, not just acting calm but working to actually be calmer has been really helpful. It's what I think about every time you throw your line about calm, consistent leadership.
I knowwww, I've been struggling with potty training with a rescue puppy and with leash pulling on my older dog since he has been showing an attitude since the new puppy arrived. Slowly making progress, Hope you and your pup find success soon as well and hope we humans become calmer, I guess they train us as much as we do them
What a great lesson! Especially the threshold training. That is my biggest fail with all my dogs. It is something I need to practice religiously and perfect. Thank you, Will! I needed these reminders today.
Brilliant!!!
I started threshold training only a week ago. She already knew sit and wait, just not in the context of crossing thresholds. She learned what was required instantly. I cannot tell you how much calmer and better behaved she is. It has been miraculous. She’s a 3 yr old working cocker. My dog trainer was very impressed, saying it is something many dogs really struggle with. I can’t recommend it enough.
I got a rescue puppy last year, this is one of the things I never forget to do daily. When we leave and we come back home he knows he needs to sit/lay down and wait for the door to be opened, and then for him to be invited to leave or to enter. This changed absolutely everything!! everyone sees him waiting in there and are amazed on how "well behaved" our dog is. We still have a lot of areas of improvement but this threshold training is a really good practice.
I absolutely agree with you Susan. This is the first video I have watched from his Channel and I love it! He has summed up each lesson very well, with simple yet detailed information. I can't wait to begin this way of training. Thank you Will!!
I love the tip to keep their daily food in the treat pouch! My pouch is arriving in the post today, the puppy is arriving in 5 days, and I'm SO excited to start training! Thanks for this great video! xx
Ordered mine as soon as I watched this video!
How did you get on with your puppy
My dog isn't a huge fan of his daily food so I can't use it as a treat...
I really appreciate how in depth you go with everything. I got a 4 month old cane corso and we’re following your lead in steps through training. She’s doing so well already even at so young.
Thank you for being a responsible Cane Corso owner. People don't understand that this breed needs structured loving leadership. I feel like people just use them "for protection" without obedience and it gives this lovely breed a bad name.
@@Jesswithlessstress absolutely correct. Well said.
I get my corso may 3rd. So excited. I’ve been studying for 7 months. Love wills videos and bought the corso program
One of the best decisions we made was to only socialise our puppy with well rounded adults, and now at two years old our dog is very well behaved. Look for positive examples and try to avoid negative interactions.
@@Jesswithlessstress exactly!! I have an 18 month old female Corso (got her at 10 weeks) and she can be a challenge at times but so easy to train especially with the method Will is mentioning here about the whole day food and feeding. She is so busy and we compete in several sports to satisfy her mental and physical needs.
Major mic drop when he said the dog is deaf! Amazing training.
Lol 😆 you can say that again
This is genuinely some of the best advice you can get. Will Atherton is by far one of the most accessible and thoughtful trainers available - and his internet advice is incredibly succinct and helpful
I have grown up around dogs and dog training most of my life, mainly in the field retriever discipline. I have seen many training videos and programs and just wanted to say that this video was awesome! You hit all of the foundational elements of a good program, for field or home. You are a great representative of the training world.
I volunteered for 8 eight years at the Adelaide RSPCA shelter. So many people have a misconception on how difficult & dangerous shelter dogs are. It's exhausting trying to explain to them how things really are. I'm doing a dog behaviourist cert now & I want to become a qualified trainer to help people understand their dogs & in turn help the dogs! They need good humans like you! Thanks for your videos!! Very informative 🐾
When you said he's deaf my heart just skipped a beat!!! Thank you, thank you for helping this precious baby! You are so wonderful! 🥰
I been training dogs since my first puppy my parents got me when I was old enough to understand responsibility around 8, she was a German shepherd, our 5th, we all got one, and to this day I learn something new often, and I like this channel.
You can feel Wil's passion on leading & taking care of dogs! Kudos!
It is truly amazing the relationship between dog and man, i think in a sense it comes down to the dog finding a sense of security in YOU the companion. If you give a dog the effort and the reassurance and the security that dog will love you harder than you could ever imagine. I am working on my relationship with my lab puppy and i cant imagine how much it will hurt when she is gone. Cheers mate.
This is a stellar comment section. Nice folks through and through! I appreciate that these videos are very concise and clear. Bravo!
Love how articulate you are and how clearly you speak
What a relief to find such a useful trainer! We got into trouble with animal control because Loch actually broke his choke collar and nipped a woman on her finger. She called animal control. My boy is a rescue and we went through trainings all the way to training to be a Sevice dog but during that training he became over protective and the trainer said he cannot be a service dog because he has bitten and lunges qt people
Your right Ma’am
Thanks mate, just adopted an 18mth old male boxer dog and have been using all the information you provide. He is definitely improving, it's beautiful to watch the bond strengthen.
That dog is loving the transition and training he is getting.
This is an awesome video. I have to keep viewing it so I remember to do these things.
So glad I found Will's videos.
Excellent video as usual Will! I do threshold/boundary work daily with every dog I’ve had & I agree! It’s such a great addition to all the other little things we do all day every day with our dogs😊🙏🏼
I’m new here and loving your videos. Life got busy and I stopped putting in the work to maintain well behaved dogs. You have motivated me to get back on track. Thank you!
Thank you so much for all of your training videos. I just got my first BC and although she still has all the normal puppy behaviors, she is training like a dream! ❤️ So grateful.
I am revisiting this video for the second time. We were put out of our condo due to a fridge water lining flooding. We are currently in a temporary residence inn. We are surrounded by sidewalks and open fields here. What I have been doing recently has been sit/stay at each "crossing." Meaning when we come to the end of the sidewalk or parking lot Ginger sits and stay's until released. The same for when we cross a street or get to the train track etc. I learned this from you and this video. Ginger has been doing this here now for the past four weeks since we came here. Ginger cannot wait to go out and "work" each morning. I tell her, "Let's work" and off we go. She absolutely loves "to work." I am highly grateful for your lessons. She looks up to me and is then rewarded with a Cheerio. This has strengthened our relationship tremendously and helped her with the stress of an unplanned and stressful move from our home to another. Her reward is also to go out on her lead to the surrounding mowed fields and sniff and "hunt" for moles which is a brain exercise we do frequently (we are surrounded by an office park and have many., many 16 wheelers, garbage trucks, delivery trucks around us so she must stay on her lead 24/7 right now for her safety.)
After all the dogtraining videos i have watched the past months, I don’t recall any of them mentioning leadership. The most important term that never crossed my mind for some reason. Thanks 🙏🏼
Really appreciate your insights and reminders! I have a 15 month old German Shepherd who has had extensive training and is my service dog. To this day, I try to stick to the basics (especially thresholds!).
I must say... you are my favorite trainer 💕
My little jack is not very food motivated, but learns quick with lots of positive pets and words. I agree with " a tired dog is a well behaved dog" for sure! Keep up the good work!
Rescued a 120lb Golden Saint (about 4 years old) here in Nepal last year, and I've been doing all of this with so much success. I was worried at first (he's a bit of a Cujo) but I've gotten so much confidence just by watching vids like this. thx
Picking up my pup in a month. Really excited and am binge watching this channel
I’ve never heard of the food pouch thing before but my dog is VERY food motivated so I want to give it a try and it’s working already after 2 days!! She can pull me off my feet sometimes and even sprained my wrist once. Glad to be getting a handle on this
How do u do it with work and stuff? I'm away for like 8 hours a day
Lol 😆 don’t let get a whole of you show her who’s boss
Paul Trewin I agree best this to train into your dog “threshold training” I have a ten month Aussie had to train her and the husband. They’re both getting it now.
thank you for taking care of dogs.
This is Soooo HELPFUL!! I just rescued a 2 year old Yorkie November 8 2023 and I am glad I ran across your channel! Clear and Concise Guidance🙏❤
You are a Master trainer and both the 2 legged and 4 legged benefit from your wisdom. Thank you.
Your passion and enthusiasm for the welfare of dogs is compelling! Thanks for clearly spelling out these fundamentals.
Love this, Will. My 11 week old French Bulldog is a pretty chilled little dude and is doing great, loving his crate in particular. We’ve begun threshold training and he drops to a sit going in and out of all doors. Amazing.
‘Hey I really like what you’re doing’ that’s awesome. Love this video so much - you’re such a kind and compassionate leader. We have a new rescue greyhound that we are trying to train. We love her so much and I’m such a sucker but I know she needs a good strong leader. We’ve never crate trained her (we’ve had her 3 months) but we are considering it
SOOO glad I found this channel. I have only watched a few of your videos, but they are so straight-forward and easy to understand. I already feel better prepared to be a great leader for my new puppy and my older dog!
Your right ma’am. Show them who’s boss
I just want to say thank you so much! Our 10 month old American bully xl started jumping on me and biting me whenever we went on walks and I didn't let him go where he wanted. I was getting scared of him. We started your boot camp last Saturday and I haven't been bitten since. Thank you so much for all your videos. They have changed our lives and made me fall in love with our crazy puppy again.
Well cass , it’s matter of time train her/ him again for new apartment. Don’t scared of him/her don’t let her/him control that’s not good ! You need to control her/him ! And calm down and get time for her/him okay thank you
I just watched this video and it is one of the best all encompassing dog training videos I've ever seen. I know there are many other things we do with our dogs but these five training exercises are so important. Thank you, Will, for making this video. I've been subscribed for a while but I just subscribed to your Instagram also
I just found your channel, and I'm so glad I did. I have a high anxiety 1 yr old ausie kelpie/ausie shepherd mix, she is a rescue and was severely abused in her early puppy days and left to fend for herself in the heat of the summer in Washington. We took her in and I've been working on her anxiety and security, but she still has a lot of chaos in her behavior. Like a light switch, she goes from playful to aggressively protective. We can't really take her out and about like we''d like to because she is afraid of EVERYONE that's not part of the house. When we have guests, she spends the time cowering for the first few hours, and then skirting around them the rest of the time. I'd love to get her to a point of confidence and trust where I can register her as a support animal.
I will be pouring through your videos to try and learn how to best help her to help me. Freya and I thank you.
I was wondering about one thing from the video, with your buddy there, how do you practice recall if he's deaf?
Just found your channel a few minutes ago. Eatched this episode & repeated. I've fostered 2 deaf dogs in my longago past: think they turned out well. I got their attention by, among other means, stomping on the floor or ground. They felt it and turned for instruction. Years later, I need knee surgery. I'll bet Mr. Atherton has a better way. He already has me captivated.
How's it going with Freya and the fear training? I'm at the end of my rope with mine 😩
@@bethrivera867 still working on it. She's got so much better, but still barks defensively at new people. Today we are doing some food motivation training with her in public.
That food drill is vitally important, bro!! Especially when dealing with a large strong dog. I have a pup rottie and have been doing your drills with him. Have to establish the leader role early with him…thanks for the tips
Outstanding video, brother. Not only great content, but you spoke super well throughout. Appreciate ya.
I just adopted a boxer/mixed dog she’s 4 years old. I just finished your drill about going out the door wow, about 20 mins she had it. Thank you!
I have 3 rescued dogs, all with varying degrees of training. One is almost year old with almost no training, then we have a 3 and 4 year old who we have have taught some, but we are going to be able to teach them better now.
I didn't have dogs as a child, but I thought I was doing well by them. And I think over all, we have been, but we also have made some mistakes in their training. I am so thankful I found your videos.
You are teaching ME how to retrain my older dogs things that I either taught them incorrectly, or they came to me having anxiety about. And the almost year old will be better off because my family is going to be able to help all 3 of my dogs more. You have given me hope in many areas.
I am a little nervous because I realized that I have 3 dogs who each have different things that need to be worked on. I am thinking the best thing to do will be to take them out one on one for some focused time, then, maybe my husband, my oldest teen (who claims one of the dogs as his own), and myself can each stick to one dog for the consistent reinforment/carring their daily food around the house while we are reinforcing these skills.
This video was so helpful, everything you said makes sense! Great instructor! Thank you for helping us give our dogs a better, fulfilled life. Especially like your terminology that leadership is love.
I have been practicing some.of ypur tips on my male cat in prep of collecting my puppy next week and it's made a huge difference to his behaviour. It gives me confidence for training my puppy. Thanks for posting these videos
Excellent! Thanks Will
Thank you SO much for what you do. Your understanding of the relationship between humans and canines. Your love of these animals is so lovely!
We have 2 x 10 yr old Ridgeback sisters and have just adopted a young Ridgeback/Lurcher X. We have always applied these training exercises with the Ridgebacks and they are now proving to be great teachers for the young pup (approx 10 months old). We still train and reward the girls at their age with recall when out walking, obedience training, manage thresholds, etc and we are walking the pup off his lead after having him with us just 4 days. Having said that, this video is a great reminder especially for understanding the dog's perspective. Thanks Will!
When you first said “5 things you should be doing everyday”. I cringed. Oh boy what am I going to have to do? Am I going to have the time to incorporate new things into our day? But I’m doing all those things, everyday with my 4 month old rescue 😊Thank you for your guidance. Love your videos. That dog is so lucky to have you in his life, even if it is only temporary.
This is actually one of my favorite videos you’ve done, thank you
i love the calm leadership concept, your advice is so structured and i will continue to watch & like your videos!
Will, I want you to know that you are great at what you do. I have a 11 week old Rottweiler (Rex) and your videos have really help me out so much. Thank you and keep up the good work👍🏾
Lovely guidance,thanks a lot Will !! 👍
I bet you don’t know you’ve got a big cape for how much of a hero you are. Thank you for all this information.
I really appreciate your and what you do. As an empathic, balanced dog trainer, I love that you stress LOVING leadership. You truly do warm my heart my friend ❤️.
Thank you so much for this video I started slacking at daily training and it showed in how my dog was behaving. I kept getting lost in where I should begin even with Petsmart puppy training my puppy recently graduated from. I greatly appreciate this video!!
Having learned to walk down steps to the side so a dog who goes like a missile, I am so proud to have taught my new rescue kelpie his thrshold manners. Even with the cat hissing behind him he will sit so I can leave the room first. I feel much safer moving around with him. Thanks so much.
100% agree Will! Thank you for all your content!
Will - thanks for a great video. Excellent work and explained so simply - these are absolutely the key areas for a great human dog relationship.
Great advice!! We got our rescue bully from Linda Blair world heart foundation and she is so smart already, it blows my mind someone didn’t want her. We are extremely lucky to have her and able to work on daily excercise. Thank you for your tips!
I do every one of these for my Australian cattle dog, I’ve had her since she was three months, and every day people are very impressed with her behavior, and how well mannered she is… The only thing I do not do… I leave the food down on account that she will not eat a full meal she’s a grazer, she’s not food driven… She used to be, but not anymore. I need to start picking her food up to force her to eat more often, great video
This poor sweet pup has been so badly abused it breaks my heart! Thank you for helping him become the perfect companion for adoption. Would lovely to see a pup date when he gets his furever home
Will thank you for your videos you offer great information! Keep up the great work 🥰
I love your training style! I’m so glad I found your video! New subscriber!
This is the first useful, to the point, video that I’ve seen. I love this guy’s passion! Ppl who are passionate about what they do are always the best at it.
I don't know if my dog really understands just how much she's saved me. She's teaching me kindness and leadership skills that I didn't have before. When she's out with me I feel confident in my own skills because she's so well behaved. She's my greatest companion now. When I'm sad she's there. When I'm happy she's there. When I need to work out frustration I can take her out and we'll play fetch and tug, and we'll run around like maniacs until we're both tired... then we'll take a nap. Maya is very intelligent.
Nice video. This techniques really work. I use them on my doberman everyday and he is starting to be a wonderful canine companion that looks at me for guidance. At the beginning it may be a bit tedious to do the exercises but once you get used to it, you just start doing it naturally.
Totally agree !! And I'm very happy to see that this is what I do with my dog everyday and she's perfect
You are a true leader and coach! Great content and you really opened a door for me for a better understanding about the relationship between a dog and a human. Thank you Will!
All the things he saids is 100% true I’ve done this for 50 years create training, and all the other trainings that he’s shown here is highly recommended and a good hard exercise before you leave anywhere keep some in common mind.
Great content man, covering in-depth every aspect . Every dog owner (and future ones too!) should have those rules in mind, it gives a big amount of control over various life situations with your dog, which reduces any anxiety or stress in a dog & owner - you will not be fearful that your dog will badly behave, and dog will not be stressed by new situations. Win-win scenario for every one!
Also when you have a puppy, remember about behavioral changes that will happen (from puppy to adult dog) - don't give up and stick to those 5 rules, it will help you a lot!
Those are very good training tips, thank you 💙
I learnt how to get my dogs to understand "leave it' and "wait' following your advice about feeding. They will now look at me and wait for as long as I want them to using a break command. Thank you so much
Rapidly becoming a fan. Adopted a Catahula Leopard Dog approx 8 months old two weeks ago before knowing what she was. The shelter had no idea. I've been used to basenjis for the last 25 years so I was over confident going in. We bonded so quick at home, she's such a sweetheart, that I was astonished at her level of aggression at other dogs when walking the river path near our home. Just a few of your videos have given me so many tools for consistent training that I wanted to express my gratitude. So thank you for your helpful content. Looking forward to more.
The threshold training is new to me! Thank you for sharing these drills!
Recently, I've been helping my mom train her new dog. She's a 4 year old pitboxer mix. Lots of energy and all muscle! She's extremely sweet and very smart, but just doesn't seem to understand that my mom and the other older dog don't appreciate getting bumped every time they go through the doorway.
Gunna try these exercises with her, wish us luck! :)
I agree with every word he says in video that's how I training my dogs, nice guide for newbies 💯
This guy is the real deal! Thank you sir!
I always use hand signals when teaching sit stay etc .. sometimes it's easier using hand signals than constantly using your voice .. 😊
I've been doing this too, with all our dogs. It helps when they start losing their hearing like my old guy. I just use hand signals or my head to let him know what I want and he understands.
use both
@@theyenvy1368 Teaching my dogs to sit stay etc with my voice like everyone, but I in addition to using my voice accompany each instruction with a matching hand signal ..
hand signals saved my dogs life a few years back, she got stuck on the other side of a flooded creek and we used hand signals to sit stay her until we got over there to get her. highly recommend
GREAT videos for us novices in dog training. Need to get myself one of those correction leashes and remember to have plenty of treats in my pocket.
I really appreciate your explanation and thinking. I started watching your vids before getting our puppy. And I have emulated your training so very much. I live in northern Sweden. On many occasions, people have praised me for my dog leadership. And I would like to praise you for sharing your views about dog leadership. Many thanks!
Thankyou for your fostering & rescue work
I absolutely loved this video! I think if this were a series or something it would be so helpful for dog owners
I agree. I've been so lost as a new dog owner trying to figure out an the correct things to do. It's overwhelming.
Great video! Thanks to your advice my dog is becoming better behaved and I do see our relationship improving along the way - and I didn't think it was possible, cuz we already had a great relationship, but yes, now we're even closer! So thanks again for your videos!
Your right
Thank you for your leadership energy. Helped me a ton.
Thanks so much for you’re time I appreciate you mate
Thanks for another spot on video. We have a new 11 week old puppy. He has sit down. We're working on stay, doing fair there. The big challenge is wait. We're making progress but it's slow. Your video reminded me I don't have to feed his breakfast in a bowl. I split his daily food & use half for breakfast, then train with the rest. As of today, I'm training with all his food, and what's left is for his supper 🍽. THANK YOU
Well Debby! How are you ‘ you need to create time for he as well ! What breed is your Dog ! Perhaps you can still train he and he we listen as well .
Love these tips! I exercise threshold manners when leaving the house, but I see I can implement it at any opportunity with benefit. I also do the first 4 of your basic commands (mostly successful.. x'D), but I should put more effort into recall and place commands :)
Thanks for the always professional and loving attitude towards the best way to share our lives with our pups.
