- In this video, we will show you a training exercise so you can learn how to teach your dog not to pull on the leash. This training exercise won't just stop your dog from pulling on your walks, but it will teach them to not pull on the leash EVER! This informal "leash respect" as we call it will be one of the most-used skills that you teach to your dog. It won't matter if you're indoors, outdoors or anywhere else, this skill will show your dog that they need to keep that leash loose. It's going to teach your dog to pay more attention to you as well! I love teaching my dogs this skill and you will see how helpful it is when you start to work on it with your four-legged family member!
Do you have a dog who starts pulling IMMEDIATELY when you walk out the door? THIS will help: • Leash Walking Training...

Like to see this with a dog that's actually a puller. This pup is ALREADY incredibly focused on his human trainer - lots of training already done here.
Also the dog knows it is time for treats
And it's a Border Collie..... incredibly smart eager working dogs!
Yes my dog doesnt stand still for one second 🤣
It is true and why did these people actually do a video if the dog has already been trained. It is very disappointing. 😭😭😭
Better is you use a dog that pulls like mad and see how that's done. This dog is pretty well trained already.
This worked perfectly! We did it first inside with no distractions, second moved to outside with little distractions and then moved into an area with a little more distraction. After building the foundation moved to giving 'treats' every other time, then moved to every third time until we didn't need treats every time. It also worked great to do it during meal times so they had to work for their breakfast & dinner. Thank you!
Sounds like you did well! Im not succeeding, but will try what you describe. Something will work eventually, i hope. 😊
May I ask how long until you can see significant improvement up until your dog did never pulled on the leash ever again
My dog pulls on the leash like he is trying to claw his way out of the depths of Tartarus itself
Same my dog chokes himself to death just to get a few inches towards a dog

Cineporno25
They can get permanent damage to esophagus with a collar if pulling.

Thank you SO MUCH for these tips, Instructor Steve! I have been training my five-month-old Goldendoodle using many of the training videos given for free (Thank you!) by McCann dogs. My puppy had been developing a real pulling issue, but this morning on our walk she did much better after I implemented one of the things you suggested. Instead of saying, "no pull!" when the leash tightened, I simply used the "quick few tugs" method you suggested. It worked! Thanks very much for sharing the wisdom you have gained through training your own dogs.
What i like from your channel is you put subtittle in your videos. As someone who have struggle at listening english, it is really help me a lot. Thankyou, Sir and your team 🙌
Learning that training is a lot of work and consistency. So I decided to like it - makes it less work and more just part of loving my dog
This helped me so much to remind me what I needed to do for my 13 week old Australian cattle dog. I was having a lot of difficulty expecting her to know how to walk and I now I’ve trained myself how to teach her
Thank you so much for all of your training videos they are very helpful!
Eureka!!! This worked! Oh thank goodness. I was beginning to think that I would never be able to leash train my dog. Thank you for sharing this video, it has helped me out so much!
Thank you for showing a training video with a dog that isn't 100% already trained! It was great to see this young pup learning the skills you're teaching rather than seeing a trained dog showing us what it's already learned.
This is a great place to bring your dog. We have two puppies there right now and we have learned lots so far.
Thank you for these very helpful tips. My wife and I are currently working on leash training our dog. She's a rescue and she's about 2 years old we think and it is very obvious she has never walked on a leash before. I know patience is key when training, but helpful tips like these are much appreciated!
OUTSTANDING!! I can't wait to try this tonite. Thank-you!
Thank you! I’m so excited to try this with my puppy!
Steve you have the lovelies way with you I understand every thing you teach
I love this channel. I just got a 1 year old 30lb hound mix, she's shy & nervous but so sweet once she warms up to you. Currently in the first phase of house training. She tends to pull on the leash a bit, the collar and harness I have for her are a bit too big so I need to get smaller ones, and she isn't liking any treats we give her. milkbone biscuits(got the variety flavor) she doesn't like, and for training we have peanut butter biscuits and chewy chicken bites and she doesn't like either. what she does like is her pig ears and rawhide. so I can't really train her if she won't eat the training treats haha! but this is so helpful, I'm going to be here nearly everyday!
Such a positive attitude.
Fun to watch.
Thanks for the great tips.
Hi there, Nati Elgavi! Glad you enjoyed it so much. Thanks for watching! ~Ken
I love you guys! Thank you so much for this, its super helpful and I feel like me and my dog have more fun as we evolve together
That food reward works realy well for my dog, until I run out and then all hell breaks loose.
As always, I wish my wife and I had seen this 4 months ago! Our golden lab is growing up (5 months now) and is getting stronger and more independent. I appreciate your values of consistency and fairness - that's so important but also requires us as trainers to be really in tune with him. Thanks for your sharing your perspective about helping the dog succeed and your final point - you promote what you permit is so valuable! Not only for dogs!
It’s an important “rule of thumb” to help guide your training choices even when we don’t have a video on a subject. Yet😉 Glad you found it helpful! ~Ken
Such a great channel. Thank you guys!
I love you guys so much!! I see too many "dog trainers" who's solution to leash training is setting a dog up for failure then yanking and dragging a dog around on a prong collar. Thank you for teaching us a positive effective way to build cooperation with our dogs. We need more trainers like you.
your training is great. Enjoy seeing more of Steve.
I have a one-and-a-half-year-old full blood pit and I've been working hard on her not pulling the leash thank you for this video
Hi there, Michael! I love hearing that attitude! We’ve had a few pit bull crosses over the years and they’ve been such a fun breed to train. Also possibly the sweetest pups in our home. Enjoy the process! ~Ken
''LOVE THE CONTENT YOU ARE PRESENTING I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO USING THESE DOG TACTICS ON MY FAWN DOBERMAN ''
My dog is a habitual puller! These videos have helped us in just a few days!!! We're still a work in progress but I've been very proud of my Mocha lately.
@Frostykatkit So much better! We walk almost every day now. I'm still working on her walking NEXT to me, but I'm just so glad the pulling has stopped. I purchased an e-collar to help me with getting her attention... So far so good though.
Very helpful. My dogs have harnesses because they pull so hard I am afraid they are going to damage their throats. I will start using your method right away Thank you!

Excellent training clip! I appreciate it so much.
Glad you found it helpful, Julie! Thanks for watching ~Ken
EXCELLENT! There are many vids of obviously trained dogs to show this. Well, hell, they make no mistakes :/ This doggo IS BEING TRAINED! THANK YOU!
We were having trouble with distractions. Everything was fine inside. Outside, puppy class or any public place and I lost our pup’s attention. We did this drill then headed to Lowe’s with a bag of sliced hot dogs and SUCCESS! Brilliant. Thank you!
It's very interesting valuing dog obedience training so as i watch your channel I like it to apply to my dog k9 obedience training..God bless
Perfect my 7 month old pulls so I'm starting this today :) thanks guys..
Glad it was helpful for you, Chrissy! Happy Training! ~Ken
This IS great!! Thanks so much!!
Thank you again! Very helpful :) my dog is an all star at listening with treats - not as good without them. Is the goal to eventually have this type of behaviour without having to
Reward with threats constantly?
I love answering this question, Brandon Beavis Investing! Our methods are good focused at the beginning, but all of our effort goes into weaning off of food when your dog is ready. I published a video a while ago that will help you to get those same great results without food! Here’s a link: Basic Dog Training - Your Dog Won't Listen Without Food - ruclips.net/video/qLutjke0y9U/видео.html
Happy Training! ~Ken
A tip to not have the dog be so hard to work without treats is to avoid picking up treats before desired behavior, most dogs will connect the dots and understand that tricks are only worth doing if the treat is already out.
Instead, with a bit of practice and large pockets/a large pouch - you can time your treats as well by simply being quick to pull it out and give it to the dog ^^
Thanks for sharing I will try this technique for one week
Hi, If you could put some teaching videos also when a small dog wears a harness, instead of a collar it would be great!
I love your videos, they are helping us a lot (I have a 4months old Yorkshire Terrier), but a lot of things works differently or does not work at all, when it’s not a collar!
Thank you!! Going to put this into practice immediately.
thanks, will try!
Thanks 👍
As a first time owner I did a lot wrong. I was very inconsistent with leash training and had to try out a lot. We ended with the tree method which was perfect. Before we did it with clicker which worked out too but then I lost the clicker. I'm so excited for my next puppy and how I will train leash manners. I thought about using the clicker, directly using collar for nice walking and harness for pulling plus training to respond to leash pressure. My girl was a lab bomb wanting to go anywhere Im really excited for my next dog.
0:31 dog is like come here you, gimme a kiss 😙😙😙
I'm watching this video after sustaining a sprained ankle and quick trip to the hospital after chasing my dog when he came undone from his leash 😅 but no pain no gain I guess now I gotta really train him more 😌😁 hes my family's first dog too so we're learning just as much as he is lol
I need to try this. My puppy is 1.5 years old and did well at puppy training doing this same method. But she's rebelled after turning a year old lol She's bigger and pulls her weight wanting to sniff everything when we walk. Funny thing while watching this yesterday, my pup was watching it intensely too (I video'd it and uploaded it) Hopefully she will learn something by watching! Thanks for the video training!
Can you please do a video on beagles or on walking two dogs at once
I have an especially stubborn Shepherd/Chow Chow mix.. I'm going to try this.
Baby NOOB ok boomer
Love this technique for the most part. I would love to see using something other than the bumping of the leash. I think some people would progress that to actual hard leash pops. I love seeing the different ways to teach something so difficult. Thank you!
Hi there, Kim! To be fair to the dog the rate at which you’re popping on the leash may need to be faster. If a harder pop is required then you may be waiting too long before adding the leash correction. What’s really important in an exercise like this is using just enough “bump” or “pop” to effect change. Then pour on the praise when your dog is back with you. The moment your leash has tension you need to start using those bumps! This is how the dogs begin to understand that the “cue” is leash tension and they’ll begin to fix themselves before it gets any tighter! Thanks for watching! ~Ken
McCann Dog Training Hi! I don’t use leash corrections in training. Which is why I was thinking that this technique could be modified a bit for me and while If I did use corrections like this I would use it early so it would be mild, I know with the normal pet owner, things could escalate easily and quickly. I would rather that not happen. You all work on attention skill a lot in your videos, so as just a question, why not come up with an interrupter word that is also highly reinforced to get attention? Just thinking out loud. Like I said, I like 99% of this technique you have shown and it would be easily taught in a group setting. And I am sending the puppy potty training videos to my in-laws for their puppy. They are having issues and are not close to me so I can help.
You are certainly thinking the righty way, Kim! The earlier, the better and you’ll be able to reinforce the great behavior without having to redirect! The challenge most people have is that their environment overwhelms their dog (and them in some cases). If you are able to interrupt your dog from leaving by using your voice and they are still on a loose leash, then that is ideal! It’s such a nice way to reinforce the choice of staying with you! When dog owners start to increase the challenge for their dogs, they need to have great timing with their voice, and what will often happen is that they are constantly talking to their dog to maintain that attention (which is a double edged sword unfortunately). If the only way to maintain attention is to be speaking constantly, the value of voice begins to diminish. And at some point while increasing the challenge, the dog will inevitably make a mistake. This is actually a good time for the dog to learn “what isn’t allowed”. By using the leash to redirect your dog back then praising when they return to you, it begins to put a little onus on your dog to work a little harder. By starting to discriminate between the “good responses” with praise, and the “GREAT” responses with a high value reward, your dog starts to choose you because you are valuable. Because dogs will do what’s rewarding, you’ll start to see your dog looking to you more often and offering you that attention because you’ve established a history of reward for doing so. I really love answering questions like this, as we often get to show this to our in-class students but it’s much more difficult to show the behavior change over time on RUclips. I think there’s another video that you’ll find helpful on our channel that talks about some simple ways to be more “magnetic” with your dog. Here’s a link: ruclips.net/video/wogAFUwmeSw/видео.html
Thanks for watching! ~Ken
Love you Steve, good job
Great video! Thankyou
Glad you enjoyed it, Haydn! Thanks for watching ~Ken
Thank you gentlemen for sharing. Another keeper for my doggie file! Look forward to more ..
Thank you, Lina! Glad you found it so helpful. Happy Training ~Ken
I enjoy Steve’s approach. My question is: What do I do about walking my puppy while he’s still learning to walk on a loose leash? Our 30 minute morning walk could take awhile if I address all instances of pulling. I can’t avoid exercising my dog until she’s learned not to pull.
You can use different equipment or make use of the harness that have a clip at the front. Loose lead walking clip at the front, and the one on the back if you need to get somewhere quicker. Driving to the park if you own a car and letting your dog off or using a long line so they have no chance to pull x
That's exactly my question as well!!!
Walks aren't the best way to exercise your dog. Tug games and short sprints the back yard will wear them out more effectively
I like to get at the top of the stairs. Throw a kibble to the bottom. Pup goes down to get it and then I drop one at the top and pup runs back up. Up and down, up and down. Or do some fetch with a ball. Anything that gets them more active. Walking is great but doesn’t spend that extra energy some dogs have.
@@olympic-gradelurker True but if you live in an apartment that's often not an option
That looks Super easy. Should of thought of that sooner...
Another video added to my McCann Dog Training video playlist, thanks, guys! When is your next RUclips live stream I don't want to miss it? Boy, is that one good looking pup! Have a fantastic day.
I sound like a robot when I type comments how awkward, lol.

Hi there, Rob! Glad you enjoyed this video so much. Our next Live show will be this upcoming Thursday night at 7:30 (4:30 PM PST *i think*) Hope you’re able to make it! Thanks for watching ~Ken
@@McCannDogs Awesome thank you, Ken. See you there!
@@McCannDogs I have 2 puppies can you give me some advice on training..also what is the best type of treat
my 100 pounds Giant Schnauzer used to say "come with me, come with me, gooood hooman!"
🤣💀
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣Soooooo funny😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂🤣🤣🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣😂🤣🤣😂🤣😂🥰
My German Shepherd/ lab mix does me like that 🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Mastiff momma here, pretty sure she's drag me too lol
for my Great Dane I use a *front* attach harness. No more yanking
The 3 D's:
Distance
Distraction
Duration
When any one of them goes up the other two must go down.
Example: Stay command for a minute (long Duration), requires a short distance (for correction if the dog attempts to get up early), and little distraction (so the dog can focus on the command).
An important rule to remember when teaching any skill! Thanks for watching, Louis! Happy Training ~Ken
I am TRYING THIS 🙌🏾
Thank you
Very helpful. To me! I need to relearn techniques, then I'll work on my year old Border Collie. Excellent help here. Thanks!
Hi I love these videos thanks! I heard a mention of leash pulses on one of your videos-do you know how can I apply this leash training to a chihuahua as they have delicate tracheas? Many thanks Angelina
Thanks
great video again - thank you! At what age do you recommend that we start this type of leash training? Would any age be "too young"??
Thank you, George! Glad you enjoyed the video. When your puppy reaches 16 weeks you can start doing some of the adult dog training with them. I have a more comprehensive breakdown for you if your puppy is younger than that in this video: Puppy Training Schedule By Age - ruclips.net/video/hpb7-dbjVSU/видео.html
Happy Training! ~Ken
It's ok I got it thankyou
LOL my 90+ pounder was a plow mule in a former life.
🤣 I can imagine!
Funny, you're the only other person I've come across that uses "With Me!" as a command for the dog to accompany. Great, now I do't have to retrain the dog :-D
I use it too!! Was happy to hear someone else use it :)
Yusss “with me” gang hiiii 😂
Yep. I use 'with me' too. Guess it's not as unusual as we thought.
Love watching your videos while my pup is napping but the intro bark always wakes him up. Maybe a more subtle intro for all of us?
Great Training opportunity!
That is one energetic boy...
My Belgian Shepherd considers pulling on the leash a treat. I've already abandoned all hope.
There with you.. he smiles and enjoys being pulled
My half lab half shepherd is the same and he’s so strong if I’m not on guard he’d pull me under a car
My German Shepherd loves to pull. Will ignore a treat as he thinks pulling is fun !
I found it is the same with my GSD/malinois mix. Essentially, she just plainly hate walking. Absolutely everything else in the world is more interesting than just walking on a leash, no matter what treats I am rewarding her with for not pulling. I am able to walk an entire block without her pulling at all if we are playing tug at the same time which is obviously not annoying at all.
Rob Plazzman choker chain was the only thin that trained my GS, once he figured it was uncomfortable he was great and went on to a normal collar, still with treats 👌
Loved this video. My 5 month old Mini Schnauzer did great with this training. We started in the house, then the backyard. We did 10-15 minutes, 2-3 times a day. It took about 4 days and she was perfect. Time to go to the next level, we started in the driveway, then the sidewalk to the corner. She loose-leash walks perfectly UNTIL I give her a treat. As soon as I give her the treat, she looks forward and just keeps on walking. I stop, wait for her to come to my side, give the "walk" command and she pays attention, until I give a treat. I know I have to treat to train, but what am I doing wrong?
Great advice! Thank you.. I'm at my wits end with our new rescue.
Glad you found it helpful, Debra. Thanks for watching ~Ken
This has helped me a lot-I have been saying “stay with me” and rewarding for that, which is more pleasant than “don’t pull !’ For both of us.
God you found it so helpful, Karla! Happy Training ! ~Ken
Karla Solomon, yeh, I say ‘’conmigo” (spanish for ‘with me’). 😊
I've been saying "don't pull" in my sleep...mom to a very active border collie who pulls constantly. can wait to try this method of training...thankyou
When walking my dog wants to go check out his favorite trees, shrubs, etc. I try to anticipate this and say “leave it”. Is “with me” a better choice in those situations? I’ve also been using leave it when we approach trash on the ground, etc. Thank you, your videos are extremely helpful!!
As long as you use your “with me” while your dog is a on a loose leash, that can work. The moment that you leash goes tight though you need to use those leash pulses to get that attention back. Thanks for watching ~Ken
Practice more in lower distraction areas until you've built more of a reinforcement history. Put distractions out (paper plate with low value food on it for example) and then correct him if he gets distracted by it. By doing this, you're teaching the concept at an easier level before hitting the streets with all the BIG distractions around. Small steps that the dog can be successful at.
if the dog is already used to you saying "leave it" then don't change what you say, for the benefit of the dog's understanding.... stay consistent... the fewer syllables used the better. one word is more than enough for any situation.
Sir what kind of reward treats do you use?
These are great strategies for medium to large dogs. I have a miniature poodle, and bending down again and again this way is hard on the body. What other way can I do this to avoid the strain on my back and quads?
Would like to know when you are starting classes again.
Thanks for your videos! I’ve got a long way to go...Should this training be daily? I see you gave him a break later on, so how long was the break? We’re helping our newly rescued 1 year old sweetheart and he needs a lot of training: leash pulling, crate sleeping, no jumping on people: but I don’t want to exhaust him. So how often do we train for how long, etc...?
Love dogs ❤❤
Thanks for this really great video. My question is are we meant to practice this until our puppy is properly trained before taking her for walks or can we take her for a walk now and practice this type of training every so often? She's 5 mths old and when we take her for a walk she still pulls, darts and tugs so much.
That's what I need to know
Great video, what type of dog is this? Gorgeous
Thank you for this video. Im sure it’s in the comments here somewhere, but what treats are you using?
Question for Steve or other's with experience: my 5 month old lab will sometimes just hold position on walks, especially towards the end or in warmer weather, and focus on anything but me. I recently started the "with me" training in the house but we are having a hard time transitioning that to our walks. This especially happens in the morning. Thoughts? Suggestions? Thank you in advance!
I woud love to see this with my 5 month old Yorky. The minute wer'e out he's like a rocket. Oh my arms. PLease show us a small dog for a change. A lot of us have them!!!
Brilliant video. I've a couple of questions if you can answer them. My dog is almost 2 yes old and isn't trained on the lease, can he still be trained?. Secondly, when your training your dog, for how long do you train him each day, presumably you can't train him all day and give him treats all day?.
this guy's never met my dog, it is like Eric Cartman of dogs.
Hahaha. Very recognizable. My dog does fantasic in isolated environment (or just people) and a treat in hand, she can do anything and will do anything. As soon as another dog (or cat) enters the arena, it's time to play (or in the case of the cat, hunt) and nothing else will convince her otherwise.
Eric Cartmen was tamed by Ceaser Millan.. so it's possible. Google the episode :9
what you're not seeing is the beginning steps of gaining the dogs attention from the raw untrained puppy stage. Every dog has the ability to become the "Eric Cartman" of dogs, but with simple steps and short repetitions and positive rewards you can actually watch your dog teach himself to be calm. That's really what the epitome of training is...seeing your dog with that "GOT IT" moment.
Tried the military approach yet? take a 2 meter/ 6 ft leash, hold the end of the leash with both hands center body. start walking.
Now the important part, when you see your dog start pulling you start immediatly running in the opposite direction. holding the leash center of your upper body directly on your lower chest!!! with both hand and you also slightly lower your upper body to further lower your center of gravity. Your dog will then "fly"...2-3 times...then he will follow and get a reward. also constant reward him if during walking as long as he does not pull.
Tsssss!
Geez! My German Shepherd great at homes. Somedays she's great out too! Somedays we have a beat down love hate relationship.
Good video
Great video! What kind of dog? He looks just like the rescue I just got except mine had a Dalmatian looking scarf.
Great video! How would alter or change this training for a blind dog?
Rely on positive intonation in your voice with lots of physical contact
I've used these same techniques for blind dogs but I also add sound by "shuffling" one of my feet along just before giving the verbal cue and reward. In a matter of days they're very able to follow the sound of your feet, and as time goes on you'll need it less and less.
while you are working on this with a young dog what do you do when on the necessary walks outside (there is excessive pulling even food doesn't distract him) and I worry that it is negative reinforcement?
I have to dogs, I can't walk them both on the left hand side. Should I still try walking them on the left side or both sides.
This is very helpful. Thanks. One perhaps strange question: when I'm walking my dog, should I always expect the "with me" position? I live in the city, and have a (rescue) dog who attacks other dogs, so we have to keep her on the leash when taking her out to pee and poo. How can I communicate the difference between needing to heel, and walking politely but being free to sniff and pee, etc.?
Teach a break/free dog command. When you give that command, they're free to be a dog, then you call them back to heel/be with you. That way they're clear when they're 'working' and when they're not.
@@IHBBabe Thanks!
Are there videos if you use a harness instead of a collar?
will this work on english bulldog??? My female bulldog puppy is very stubborn though.
Gonna be trying this with my 2/3 year old Husky/Doberman. Hopefully it works out, but this is one stubborn dog.
Thats a good thing you walk a dog an they pull i pull back an let them pull my weight it condition them. Then again i have extremely hiper dogs pitbulls love it
Your pup is super cute!
I have 4 dogs. Three are quite good on a leash. The fourth pulls with all her might and screeches at the top of her lungs when she sees another dog or sometimes even a person in the distance. She is hyper alert and always looking for something or someone. I’ve spent lots of $$ with trainers and even they have given up. So now I’ve given up. I only walk her when I’m in a frame of mind to deal with her behavior or when I know fewer people are out, like in bad weather.
Same! A female Samoyed that’s insane
Don’t give up! My one Newfie took years- literally- to mind. We had a lot of success with the chest harness, consistency, and not giving in to her no matter how long it took.(sometimes it took 40 min for her to obey- maddening at times). Every time I gave in to her, we had to start all over again.
Does this method work with a harness for smaller dogs? Or do i need to attach to the collar?
Hi - great video. Here's my question. I'm using your strategies and they are beginning to work. But when I take my pup for a walk, she pulls as she wants to explore etc. She hasn't learnt to lose leash walk yet so there is often a lot of tension in the leash which I fear is re-enforcing the bad habit of pulling, just as I am trying to establish a good habit in my training session. Obviously I want to take her for walks etc.
Any thoughts or suggestions?
Mr Walker's Bookshelf upload site teach the heel position and how to walk in it.
My 2 month old puppy bites my ankles when walking especially when he gets very excited. Do you have any advice that can correct this behavior? Love your channel as always!
Hi there, Celia! Using a house-line with your puppy is going to be really important. It will give you the extra control you need when your puppy starts to get a little “wild” 😉 Here’s a link to our house-line video: Puppy Training Essentials - Your Puppy House-Line - ruclips.net/video/45kdNR6nAOs/видео.html
Thanks for watching! ~Ken
Hi,
What do you do for a dog whose nose is constantly down sniffing?
