Yes I realise that but sometimes when a client turns up who hasn’t previously trained their dog in a muzzle we really don’t have a choice. Because in the end the priority is to keep Dog safe.

Thanks 👍

That’s great to hear

You can just stick to a slip leash, no problem at all

That’s awesome

You are so welcome

Thanks very much yes they are very beneficial and owners definitely leave with a lot more skill and a dog that is more confident.

Yes she did

Awesome, thank you!

Cheers

Yes so many, often it’s not their fault. They are lied to an advertising that tells them they will have better control with a harness.

Good question in time maybe but not until the behaviour is modified and under control and the handler has good skills. There is a lot of equipment association with the slip lead however behaviour can crossover if it is done right. But the reality is a slip lead gives you better control than a harness. I nearly called the Video slip lead VS harness.

@@jasonharrisdogtraining Agree with all you say 👍 Thought others could also benefit from our exchange. Thanks, as always!! Keep up the good work 🤘

Yes it it

Cheers

Thanks

Well said

Welcome

My pleasure

I would advise you to have a lead on your dog while It’s inside the house. This way when it reacts you can pick up the lead and you can correct them. Believe me when a dog knows that a consequence outweigh the desire you will break through to them. I wish we could live in the world of treats to manage our dogs but in reality it doesn’t work most times.

@@jasonharrisdogtraining thank you Jason. Great feedback. Will start today. Grateful for your program. Your tips and advice are invaluable.

Yes you are exactly right. However in this video I’m specifically talking about someone’s level of consequence to stop a behaviour. Regarding people picking up their dogs it is something I talk about in most of my lessons as you are correct This reinforces the behaviour by letting your dog know when it barks and scared you will pick them up. It is a battle to get people to not pick their small dogs up. but I will educate them one by one ha ha.

@jasonharrisdogtraining keep it up!! 🤘

Agreed I don't like public dog meetings. But owners are determined to do it so I try to teach them the safest way.

@jasonharrisdogtraining Yer that's good I get it with my German shepherd and when I first got him I had alsorts.of people trying to give me unwanted attention. They want their happy go lucky doggy to play russian roulette with every dog they come across. It's just people for us isn't it but as long as they are aware and you are constantly teaching them they might take their personal feelings aside and think of how the meeting could go before hand . I think if people want to meet and talk then a nice sit would be a more appropriate and teach manners. People could do with good manners and calm behaviour . Like people dog's don't need to grind up in each others faces, sorry I just rattling through how I feel and what I have to do. I've met so many idiots and they are so many more,the new one dog owners who just let your dog of to do what they please, well it's always been done but I am noticing it more.

@@vinceking7651 there is allot of education needed for so many dog owners.

Yes there was lots more wrong than what I stated in the video, but I just pointed out a couple of things.

There is a lot of scammers out there that have no clue, but they will take your money

Thank you

Yes, I do believe keeping a dog too close to you like heeling can certainly increase their confidence to react. However, it’s a tricky one because we need to keep our dogs under control when we’re in public. So in a sense we are forced to keep them close to us. Thanks

But it’s very hard to actually find other good dogs for mine to interact with. They’re owned by other people so I’ll need to develop a connection with them first which isn’t always easy

@@jclive2860 yes it can be difficult. This is why I have my training facility where I have access to dogs I can use.
