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! ❤️💕
Thank you so much. I am training my first cocker. We attend a hunting dog class with munsterlanders, pointers, and labs. My cocker has them all matched with the level of excitement. Sit and stay has been a CHALLENGE, I starting using a board, and he can stay for hours.
Really really useful to see how to do the corrections demonstrations. And the tips about the steps/board. And not calling from a sit. So much really useful helpful stuff all in one little video! Thank you ! My little cocker has got so much better and calmer since I've been following Mordor .. and so have I as a trainer!! 😍🐶💚💚
Really enjoying your videos please keep them coming. We are training our working spaniel puppy at the moment so these are really helpful. Thanks for taking the time to share your tips
Brilliant thankyou for this. I'm trying to train a four month old labradore and after speaking to some gamekeepers over the weekend I found your channel
Great vid.We have had dogs for 40yrs,and we find,there is always something to learn with training.In fact our last two have been Springers,with totally different personalities,so different methods of training using the same basics were needed.
This is SO helpful; Waffle and Mash were the same as the very pup I have to teach, so now I have a reference! WE as humans need the disciplines to train as much as the dogs need the training.
amazing "if i let go of the lead, Waffle doesn't know what to do, he doesnt sit" ... then watch the immediate reaction of this dog once the lead is picked up. immediately that young Waffle was like 'oh, behaved, damn, forgot about that. sit. sure, i can that' so simple, amazing video
Absolutely love this video and the common sense approach. I don't have my pup yet as he is only 3 weeks old but I'm going to try and follow your guidance.
Labbies are great TBF. I've never known a breed so easy to train. They can get into mischief though, as pups they're often known for trying to eat the universe.
I don't work my dogs or have any interest in that but i absolutely love the dog training aspect of it. This has been very informative and definitely highlighted something i've been doing wrong - Calling them to you = guilty. Thanks so much, as silly as it sounds thats like a lightbulb moment. Gues what were trying tomorrow
Loving all the info I've been absorbing since discovering your channel. I haven't made it through everything yet, so please forgive the ignorance of something you may have already covered.. but I wonder about your techniques on training recall. Having a good "sit and stay" and going TO the dog to praise so he doesn't think he needs to come to you after staying makes great sense, but what about when you DO want him to come to you? Is it just the order in which you train? Do sit and stay until he gets a good handle on that, then move on to recalling? Or is that kind bundled in with the retrieve play, telling him to come when he's bringing his toy back to you already, so he gets the subconscious command ingrained to come back to you when you call for it?
Hi, just been looking through your videos. I have a 12 week old lab, should i start this with her now and how long to realistically get her to wait for? Thanks a lot!
Sorry Charlie, another question I have is when our male dog Scruffy died, Sasha obviously missed him, but the more we walked as I was in isolation because of cancer treatment that is all good now..but I guess I became the Alfa male to replace our male dog, the only thing is she hates meeting other dogs, big or small, she hides behind my legs, I guess my male dog was her protector.. Not sure how to get her to Interact with other dogs..she is a fantastic dog, but would love her to interact with other dogs, am I right in thinking this? Regards Tim Chapman
Hi. We have a 6 month old cocker and he will sit but not stay. His recall is really good and he comes back as soon as i whistle. Now i think ive done totally the wrong thing!
Hi, please tell me which dog doesn’t look like a happy dog? The first dog is chino the black lab, the second one is waffle the gold cocker pup, and the last one is mash the red cocker. We pride ourselves on our happy confident dogs, they are all waggy and engaged. But would love to hear what you have to say. Thanks
Thanks for watching! Please like and subscribe
I like that you have shown this exercise with dogs of different age. This helps a lot. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
I love how you are with your dogs. You really epitomize the idea of “be the energy you want to see”

Love these videos, exactly what I’m looking for. Straight to the point and packed with great advice
Really good point about going back to them when they are in a sit. Not something I'd thought about before but it makes sense.
My dog sat every time you said "sit"
That’s great! Hope that’s been helpful
😂
We can all learn from videos like these Great!
Thank You!

Superb, and really liked the logic shown at 8:37 as someone else mentioned here.
Cheers mate.
amazing

so simple, amazing video
Do you use place boards
Haven't trained a dog in about 12 years, they seem to be the " in thing " at the minute.
Absolutely love this video and the common sense approach. I don't have my pup yet as he is only 3 weeks old but I'm going to try and follow your guidance.
Mash is just beautiful!Really useful guidance in this video, really helpful indeed!
Glad it was helpful!
Another fab video new sub here just got a 5 month old springer rescue your videos are amazing sir
@@zerotraceadventure Thank You!
Very enlightening. I agree. It does not make sense to call your dog to you for praise after being commanded to "Place". It only confuses the pup.
Charlie makes it look easy! Work in progress for us but it's good to see it in action and it makes it clear how to work on it.
The work you put in will be worth it, glad you liked the video
Labbies are great TBF. I've never known a breed so easy to train. They can get into mischief though, as pups they're often known for trying to eat the universe.
I understand calm praise at the “sit”, makes total sense. What is your command to release the dog from sit?
excellent as you are only using the sit command instead of sit and then a stay command as many use Sit is Sit Down is Down etc

Dang, 8:38 is so logical.
Chino is my kind of lab!🤗
Low key in love with Chino
Excellent as always. Please consider a tutorial on stop and stay using the whistle at a distance with 10 month old cocker spaniel.
Great suggestion!
Wish I had found you 2 years ago! Hopefully not too late.
got 2 cockers my 1st 1 jarvis sooo easy to teach this ..our 2nd buddy wow took me months .....this dog put there too test me 😂 ...
Hi, just been looking through your videos. I have a 12 week old lab, should i start this with her now and how long to realistically get her to wait for? Thanks a lot!
Little Mash's sit is spring loaded. Looks familiar!
When do you incorporate the "stay" command?

How does yr dog know when to follow you or not? Sometimes you walk off n chino came with you n you had no hand signal to go with you.
It doesn't look like a happy dog.

Sorry my apologies, I was commenting on a Ridgeback training vid.....it has moved onto your vid when I was writing the comments.
Apologies again. 😊
