Tell me what you make of this technique I use with my dog who pulls on the lead - Using a lead that goes around my waist so that I am hands-free, I have been getting my dog to walk with me on my left side. I then hold out my left hand (in a fist, not as threatening as it sounds, promise!) roughly where I want his head to be (so that his body is in a heel position). Every time he looks up at my fist I give him a treat from my treat pouch from my right hand. He is doing SO WELL. He looks up at my fist regularly without a verbal prompt (of course to get a treat). Now he's bypassing my wrist and giving me eye contact. I'm also reducing the treats a little and he is staying so focused. I can also relax my hand and he looks up at me :) My point is this - my dog cannot seem to walk to heel without a VISUAL reminder of where I want him to be (we've been working on 'heel' for a while). I also do turns with my left wrist out. It's like a ruler/guide/gauge. He loses focus so quickly and this is giving him the structure he needs. Wondered what you think!? I suppose it's a bit like the noise that you make to get a dog's attention but it's visual. My dog does respond to noise but he's much more visual and sometimes I think noise gets him a bit heightened. My fist is silent (obvs!) and adds to the serenity of our walk!
@KoalaB35419 күн бұрын
Thanks! Totally agree about corrective measures. I don't tug, mainly because I don't think the dog understands what a tug means. They get a fright and sadly become used to it, without computing it means 'walk slower'. Out of interest, did you use treats with this dog when you first started training her? I absolutely had to with my young (rehomed) spaniel as I wasn't on his radar at all. He was off! I'm slowly reducing them now.
@KoalaB35419 күн бұрын
Nice video. Thanks :) Weirdly, I have been doing some light, intermittent running with my young, energetic spaniel who pulls on the lead and changing up my speed (slow, moderate, fast, vey fast) in order to teach heel. I do "reps" of this. He is doing really well to match my pace and stay in line with me. I am managing to hold his attention because he is always anticipating a speed change. Running before I can walk 😂 I've found it really hard to teach "heel" without making it fun/dynamic. Frankly, my dog is bored with teaching heel in a conventional sense (no matter how delicious the treats!). He needs stimulation/variety to learn and the rush of going fast meets his need to go fast without him pulling on the lead. What do you think of this as a training technique?
@thecairdcompany281119 күн бұрын
Morning, I think that's a great technique!!! Training the heal is such a hard thing to do, some dogs really just want to be out in front. How is your dog's toy drive? We are going to try and get Poppy's toy drive up because she will love chasing a toy but often drops it and prefers to sniff the ground haha! If you are in Instagram tag us in a pic of your dog so I can see you both training :) I'm really getting back into KZbin as a creative / fun outlet so really appreciate your comment btw!

We were in the exact same position with Poppy. She would be soooo calm in the house and on walks... but then see a dog and get hyper focused. We just made sure we continued to exposure her to these situations and not walk the other way or cross the road otherwise they can sense your concern. Maybe try favourite treat or toy to distract and keep attention but still expose the dog to the situation of being near the other dog. Let me know if that makes any sense? Cheers, Rees

Just FYI your thumbnail had a mistake in it: the apostrophe in "dog's" was not necessary. It should have been just "dogs". An apostrophe means either something is possessed by dogs or is a contraction. For example, you could have had "Best dog's games" in your thumbnail. The games would have belonged to dogs, but you put "Best Games for Dogs" and "Dogs" is simply plural.

Thank you so much for the kind comment!! When Poppy was younger, she would disengage with us as we approached other dogs, they were just too exciting! I would say it's important to consider how close your dog can be to other dogs before they disengage with you. Engagement games at home work well for building your bond, and we will demonstrate some fun games in future videos. If treats work for you, make a noise to get your dogs attention, then reward (with a treat), every time your dog looks at you. If they break their attention away from you, and focus on the approaching dog, repeat the noise, and reward again when they are looking, and are focused on you. Most important thing is staying calm with a loose lead... so much easier said than done haha! Follow us on Instagram and tag The CAIRD compant to share pics of your dog and any training tips you have for the community which would be really great!
