Build Focus and Connection with Your DOG

- Build focus and connection with your dog even in a distracting environment. In this video I demonstrate how to get a great connection with your dog even in a VERY distracting environment with a dog playing FETCH right in front of Goofy. That dog is Goofy's BEST FRIEND the Duane o Mator.
This can be done with a number of tools including pinch / prong collar, chain collar or as I demonstrate in this video with the slightest correction from an ecollar. I love the e-collar because, especially in this case, it allows me to give me dog the lightest correction to re-gain his attention.
No matter how you feel about ecollars, love them or HATE them, you'll see that this is a very fun experience for Goofy with the BEST RESULTS.
Building and keeping your dog's focus is not only important for training, but it can save your dog's life.
In my members section at:
robertcabral.com I have a number of videos of how to properly introduce, use and understand the ecollar for your dog and that section as well as all my dog training lessons continues to grow.

AnyOne wondering if the membership section is worth it... IT IS!!! 1,000 times over! Such a small price to pay for so much information!
Totally agree!
Good to know!
I'm just missing out on all the good things mr. Robert cabral have to offer in his training I need to get in on the action ,#1fan
Your dog is ALREADY SO TRAINED. I want to see a dog just getting started with focusing while there are distractions! I usually live your videos but it’s hard to learn from you when your dog is far more trained than mine is to begin with.
Watch the beginner videos. More of those coming too.
@@RobertCabralDogs I was a member when my Boxer was younger (now 21 mos.). She is my 2nd Boxer and 100 fold more high strung than my 1st girl. It's the breeding! Only thing I didn't like about being a member is trying to get a question answered. Never did get one answered. I am disabled am need to get this girl to stop jumping up on folks. She sees the world as her toy! I have placed her in her crate, in another room.....she still has this issue even after months! She is well behaved at home with me, knows sit, lay down (down), go lay down (does this automatically when I sit to eat,) off, knows names of ALL her toys picks them up and places them in my hand, sits politely and waits for her meals to be placed down......but goes nutz when someone comes into the house, and yes I have tried having her sit 6 feet from the door before opening it. I even put her into crate as soon as a car drives up.
I trained my 1st girl to be my helper og and she was amazing. I am trying to train this girl to do the same.
What would you do?
She gets plenty of exercise in yard.
I use an e collar , and prong collar.
@@ellenrobisonfrost9717 I've never heard that complaint before. Member's questions are answered 2x per week. They are answered in a video, some people don't watch the video and then think their question wasn't answered, but I can assure you, they all get answered!
Show us an untrain dog .how can we learn from that.
@@RobertCabralDogs It was difficult for me to catch every single video, and sit through them without missing something. I also take care of my 95 yr old mum.
Nice to see you demonstrate using a low-level stimulus. Hopefully, it will change the perception some people have of the use of an e-collar. Good job Robert.
Thanks Ward. Appreciate it! Here’s hoping.
I just cared to explain to a group of positive only dog trainers how an e-collar is used correctly. They would'nt have any of it, even when the proof was right before their eyes. I was threathened by them, they said someone should use that e-collar on me. I told them i would'nt matter as long as they used it how i showed it to them (My dog gets really exited when i put it on, bcs he know it's training time = fun time). You can't help some people, a lesson i have learned this day.
I will never use one on my boy. In much of what I do with my GSD it would not help and be detrimental anyway. I have much respect for Robert as a trainer and think it is great he gives alternatives. When I am working on an issue with my boy I use his vids to get inspiration.
It's completely unnecessary and it's extremely easy to hurt the dog. There shouldn't be "tools" in the market that can so easily hurt available to anyone. If it's only ok to use them with a very low intensity, why are there more "intensities" available? Plus, everytime It just confuses the dog and makes them scared, It should never be about punishing. Dogs WANT to do It right, you must just make them understand what you want and make It better for them to do what you want, building a connection between the person and the dog that gives them an emotional reward when the dog does what you want correctly.
Fantastic lesson!!! And Janet’s distractions were right on time and perfect!
thank you for posting all these great videos. im on my 3rd cattle dog rescue now. these videos have made a huge difference in our lives. the results are amazing. my latest cattle dog rescue went from wild beast to well behaved in only 3 days.
Robert your videos on here are outstanding! I have an amazing one year old gsd now thanks to all your free videos. I will be joining your members section soon to see what else I can teach him. Thanks so much :)
How are the rest of his videos as a member? I'm considering
@@suzannelove What are you waiting for? There are over 150+ dedicated videos for members, all of which are superb. Even if you use different methods yourself, learning extra new approaches from the top trainer is always good because you, and your dogs, may only become better at what you do. There is no end to learning.
As I have said in the past....I love your videos!!!....ausome dog!....had someone today ask me how I got my dog to listen so well!!....I laughed and said work....lots of work, you don't expect your dog to know stuff without training! ......
Robert, thought of you today.
We had a new "lawsuit waiting to happen" mal come into the groom shop I work at. Definitely not in the right home and living with people oblivious to the breed, so probably gotten from an irresponsible breeder.
Her original groomer turned her away after she was snapped at, so my boss groomed her. This mal somehow damaged our wall during her groom, too. Now my boss is a tough lady, but not even she would finish brushing her or do her nails because this dog was such at a high risk for biting, she couldn't even get a muzzle on her so my boss told the owner she refused to cut her nails.
Well, the owner comes in and has her own muzzle for the mal, and my boss did manage to clip her nails after that, but the mal still snapped at her. Oh, and the mal had an ill fitting collar.
Anyway, like I said, this owner was completely oblivious to this breed. Even tried playing the whole "oh I can't believe she snapped at you" bs, yikes! My boss tried giving her some advice but it went in one ear and out the other.
My point is, I just wanted to thank you for making videos and advocating that mals are a special breed and not for everyone. 🐕
Very good. I love your technique to make the dog stay focused. Very impressed Robert.. .. 👍
What a good boy! Hard to believe he is an “old” dog. That is some top notch work, Robert! Thanks for the lesson...heading over to members area now.
Just look how cute goofy is ❤
Goffe is a very trained dog, I just love to see Mr. Cabral at work in training I just wish I could get Midnight in a training session with him #1fan
In Florida we have small lizards. My one dog will hunt them in the yard out of coat (training for guide), but once in coat in public, he cannot does not try to grab one. Very hard impulse for Florida dogs.😂 As always, thank you for your hard work and hugs to Jimi!
Same my dog loves to chase lizards haha
using his online vids on his website to train my stubborn standard poodle puppy
I must admit i seriously battle with my boy when their are distractions..
Thanks for this..
Nice sheering your skills dog obedience focus and connection very healthy soo i could apply training my dog stay safe God bless
Wow! Awesome. Goofy is amazing.
Thanks for this. Our husky shepard just finished her basic obediance class a few weeks ago and I definitely need to work with her on attention and focus (she's 9/1/2 mos now).
Thanks alot for sharing,i loved this video,do more ecollar training please,dog people all around the world need to learn the good ecollar usage♥️♥️♥️♥️
love his videos...🤘
Thank you!
Hey Robert! I'm 18 years old and I have a 9 year old belgian malinois. She doesn't have any behavioral problems but has never undergone basic obedience. She Isn't food motivated or likes to play tug but she loves to play fetch. The only thing I've taught her is to not pull on the lead when walking. I really want to train her but sometimes it's like she only wants to run around the house and play fetch. Any comments?
Smash that like button y’all
Robert, you anticipated my question because I was wondering if your dog even saw those toys in the periphery being that he was so focused on you.
What a fantastic dog!!
I love your videos.
The best in the game.
Such a good dog trainer 👍
The e-collar is great. Just a slight stimuli, and not even a tiny fraction of effects which people create when pulling their dogs on the leash and a flat collar. The pull on dog's muscles and spine alone causes problems with lasting side-effects.
Fun with an e.collar.....aww man,I'm disappointed...was hopeing you could do all this with voice and gentle control...but thanks for video.
Outstanding, so important!
Very inspiring 👍🏼👍🏼 Goofy rocks. ❤️
Super
Great tutorial! TY!
La Sportiva Hyrax? You like them?
Ahhh blue tooth!
Another great vid with Goofy Robert. but a quick question I notice the ecollar is on the underside of his throat, is there a particular placement for the box on the collar?. many thanks
Hi Robert,
This video came out at the perfect time, I have been wondering how to increase my 6 month old GSD’s focus when out on a walk. She is heavily distracted and requires leash pressure to perform commands she has mastered at home. I wonder if she will develop more focus as she matures; am I expecting to much of her at this young age ?
Thanks a lot.
IMO she is too young, be patient, is only a child and she wants to discover the World. She may fail, but you are there leading his path.
I have the same problem with my 5 month old GSD.
Yeah, I think you are expecting too much. She's just 6 months, I feel most dogs don't get good focous until at least a year. She's just a baby. As long as you don't encourage bad behavior, she'll grow out of it.
Thanks everyone I had the same questions 👍
Try hand feeding. That’s ALL food comes from you. It’s a game changer for increasing focus.
Robert i love your content teached my 5 year old rescue Malinoa how to sit, give paw, loose leash, not eat before my "free" command and to play tug and fetch with releasing the toy! But oh my god i CANT teach her to lay down.. I have done maybe about 100-200 repetitions and she cant do it on command. I dont need to lure her too much i just put the treat between her legs and she does it.. Do u have any advice or should i just continue repeating and she will eventualy get it???
i walk her, play tug, fetch and train her every single day from 2 to 4hours, i also was able to get her out of chasing a chicken with a correction! and for her thats a major succses! 🤣🤣
I just got a new puppy about 12 was old now but can’t get him to concentrate, can I wait longer for when he’s a little older to
Start really training him? Thanks❤️
I have more focus videos for puppies in the member section!
robertcabral.com
Do you work with Goofy everyday and how long is each lesson ? - He is amazing !!
Would love to see a video of you preparing Goofy’s raw food!
Hi Robert, I just recently got a Mal Puppy hes 11 weeks now. Got him at 8 weeks but kept him at our breeder/trainer for 2 weeks of board and train for basic obedience and imprinting. We have been hand feeding him since we got him where we work on sit, down, and heel (and a tad of place). He’s pretty good with those commands was wondering when to start implementing new commands? On my days off I work him in an open field and then have him run around to stimulate his mind and body. Any suggestions to implement new commands also he and my American bully (year old) don’t get along all the time. Lastly where do you get your durable tugs? I’ve gotten my bully several but he tears them up.
do you have a goofy video since puppy to adulthood? i think it's interesting as a dog role model to have a video primarily about Goofy.
Am finding it difficult to recall and walk with my dog 🐕 once in an extension or loop.pls what can I do?
I’m trying to teach my dog to relax around other dogs and to be able to turn on that switch from play to train mode. I want to start doing training sessions using my friends dog as a distraction, do you think it’s best to allow them to play for bit before going into training or should I be going straight into training mode from the get-go?
I got a 27 week old Shepsky very intelligent loving training him, I allow him to say hi to friends dog then we do training whilst friend plays with his dog causing distraction after training we play tug then i reward him with free time & let him play with his friend after, also if see random dog when walking i pull out chicken get him to focus on food and walk past other dog. Hope this helps happy training
Jacko090478 Thank you for the tips! I will give those a try.
@@Dvnielvega your welcome & be very animated move fast make training almost like a game of chase when training under distraction & lots of treats, praise & play
Hey Robert!
Thanks alot for ur videos
My husky wont eat when am in the room no matter how hungry she is
She loves me and goes crazy seeing me and loves to stick to my side 24 hours, but she waits till i leave the room to eat
I tried skipping her meals to make her more hungry but it doesnt work
What could be the problem??
Thank u!!
How to make him focus to your face this much?
I have just a question concerning feeding the best you can - I have found this canadian dry food Orijen, which has the best and highest meat percentage of about 80%. do you know this brand and if yes you probably can recommend it. Thanks for your answer
I need help with my 5month mal male and my 2 year old mastiff mix female, play fighting starting to turn very rough, starting to fight .... what can i do to calm this down?
I really want to know how to teach a hard core close sit heel like that
It looks nice but Robert has said that it is unnatural to expect that of your dog all the time.
Level 5 on a garmin e-collar is pretty high. It is like a level 25 on a mini-educator.
He says any where from 3 to 5. As the video progresses he's says it's on a 3.
How do I teach my dog that yes is his realease word
Start with teaching a command to your dog (a simple one like sit)
Everytime your dog does the command correctly say yes or good or anything you want .
By time he understands that " yes = treat (or release)"
Thanks

Was thinking of using a shock collar to stop my boxer/mali cross jumping our fence and wandering about in the woods. Anyone think this will work, or whether it´s cruel?
Hi I used a perimeter collar for my my dog that's entire and was jumping the fence to go and meet the ladies...
It works great but takes a few weeks to train them.... otherwise it is cruel if you just let them get shocked without knowing why.....
Cheers from NZ
@@KnigelD Thanks for the info,Greetings from (a brit) in Germany. My Aunty lives in NZ keeps nagging me to visit, Says it´s the best place on earth :)
To train a kelpie one keeps it tied on a long rope for a few weeks (The Working Kelpie Council of Australia). If your dog gets into the woods and marks territory the challenge really begins. In 17th century Europe it was the fashion to keep a bird hopping around one's writing desk; a few weeks the bird was tied (by the leg) then the tether was released and the bird remained in the area covered by the tether. Similar with a dog. It's also a good idea to keep rewards/entertainment/interest concentrated in the area you want the dog (i.e. a bit like us, Why should I go looking elsewhere when everything I want is here). Being part boxer dog may help your cause, them being territorial by nature.
Doesn't mean you can't take your dog for a walk in the woods. Go together. Most walks are (replication of) a hunting party. Walk/exercise the dog, return home (to the den) and feed it there. Familiarity: ritual and routine. if the dog sees you as a leader it will look to you for direction.
@@kevinwilcox1835 We live in the woods with a massive garden. We can take her out for many hours, walks in the woods, wild play with other dogs.
It doesn´t matter how long. At home she still jumps the fence after a while and wanders off. It started a few weeks ago as she chased a cat and in a hunting frenzy jumped the fence, since then it must have"clicked", oh I can jump the fence.
(Mr Cabral): "We'll set the E-collar to a 3. Goofy can take up to a 5" I cringe at the thought of how you found the magic 5 number.
If you watched my other videos you’d know the answer to that question.
@@RobertCabralDogs Why use an E-collar when other methods are available? Surely your dog is not going to be fitted with an E-collar for the rest of it's life? Watched many of your videos; recommended others watch them. They're well-balanced method based in common sense ( sense which is not that common). Remember the time you spoke on the clicker - because you often forget to take it with you you've employed other methods. Begin as you intend to continue. E-collars are effective, considering what I've just said, other methods may be more pragmatic.
How is it building a good relationship with your dog when you electrocute the dog "just for fun" the mind boggles. Mr Cabral, really? Anthropomorphising it: If you want a good, healthy, relationship with your partner electrocute them every time they need a correction, "just for fun".
@@kevinwilcox1835 Dogs are tough. Goofy is especially tough. This level for him is like a tap on the shoulder. It's hardly electrocution.
@@Wolffeathers21 Get over it, it's just a dog. What! He's 10, in our years around 70. Shouldn't need a "shock collar" at all. If he does, what's happening Mr. C? But Robert says it was just for fun. So that makes it ok? No. So a bloke says "I didn't hit the dog it was just a tap. I thought it was fun." I find it strange behaviour.
What do you feed your dog, hes super muscular!
He gets raw meat, some veggies, and some supplements for his meals
@@Wolffeathers21 Raw meat? Are you not worried about parasites?
@@Joshua-le1vn idk I don't have dogs
@@Joshua-le1vn
What do you think carnivores eat in the wild? Sanitised kibble dog food?
Parasites are no problem for dogs. It's the owners that need to watch out. Don't you buy raw chicken from the grocery store to cook at home? See? It's not a big deal. Just use common sense and properly wash the places the raw content has touched.
Also, you can't just give a dog/pet a slab of meat and pretend that it gets all the necessary nutrients from it. It needs to be a BALANCED meal. Research "BARF diet" (BARF = biologically appropriate raw food). Processed dog food is junk.
@@MIZZKIE excellent info thanks! I'll check it out
en español sería bueno amigo.
Is goofy fixed or are any of your dog's fixed?
What fails to be said: E-collars don't come with a set of instructions on optimal use (Mr Cabral has kindly provided video on usage). E-collars need to be placed firmly at top of neck; behind the ears are "pressure points" (don't they just love it when you scratch them there, but I digress). Trainers will put an E-collar around the owner's arm demonstrating, "see it doesn't hurt", the neck is far more sensitive And at what point do you move on from E-collar? I hadn't taught my hunting dog "come" cue. Took him to a large wooded area he wandered off. In the park there was a German Shepherd did the same; both dogs out of sight. His dog was "trained". He called his dog. Which failed to come. He had to go find her. I called. My dog came. Guess it's "Who's calling? Sounds good. Might be something in it for me (meaning my dog). I'm coming." Like us, dogs don't necessarily respond to name. Cats are tremendously independent. Usually far more independent than dogs. Call. They come. No use of E-collar there :)
We recently got a puppy German Shepard and we have him set up to take obedience class in the middle of December. My wife said the trainer uses the e collar. Does it hurt the pup? I know nothing about the e collar.
?? WHAT DO YOU FEEL ABOUT A SHAPING BOX???
Would be MUCH MORE HELPFUL to see this in ‘real world’ with an untrained dog!
check my other videos....
(Quote Mr Cabral) "There are many ways you can do this. JUST FOR FUN WE'RE GOING TO USE AN E-COLLAR"? Just for fun we're going to give our dog electric shocks!!!! Please explain how one "gets fun" from electrocuting one's dog when there are alternative methods (you know of) to gain the same obedience.
dude your neck is huge
