I am open to everything and I saw your video… I’m walking with him right now and within five minutes he got it. I want to start crying. Within 5-6 pops he realized he needs to walk by me. I cannot thank you enough… Thank you thank you thank you thank

As a dog trainer myself something that always blows my mind is how I can break things down for a client many, MANY times, they say they got it & as soon as it’s their turn they immediately do everything I said not to do lol. Like I get it old habits die hard but till if a trainer says “only give one command at a time, no need to be a broken record” then the owner yells “sit, sit, sit, sit” it’s like uhhhh did you even hear me? I’m glad I’m not the only trainer who deals with people like this. In my area I tend to go down to our local park/waterfront area & give free mini sessions down there to anyone I see walking around with dogs who may need it & it always cracks me up when people tell me all about how bad their dog is yet I approach them & take the leash & the dogs act like a nearly perfect Angel, it’s always hilarious & clients always make the joke of “are you sure you’re a dog trainer & not a magician?” which of course just makes it even funnier. I hope I’m lucky enough to meet Joel some day, our training styles are super similar, even years before I started watching his videos I had the same approach as he does a lot of the time so I’m glad I found this channel a few months ago cause I was told my “no nonsense approach” was too mean by so many people yet I’m not mean at all & not a single correction hurts the animal so I’m not sure how having an “I’m over it” mentality with dogs (especially those who need it) is “mean”.

On longer sessions, I hide something outside, and then she has to go find it. Her demeanor instantly changes and she becomes the working dog that she was born to be.

Sincerely THANK YOU for this. Your method is literally the only thing that has worked. We have a 3 year old 55lb elkhound/shepherd mix who is very similar to Sam. His previous owner had health issues and couldn't handle him on walks. He pulled like crazy, wants to smell and pee on everything. He is neutered but has been in a close call with another dog because he won't stop trying to mount them no matter how much bigger and stronger the other dog is. For walks we tried positive reinforcement only and all he cared about was the treats as long as they were the primo ones. No good treats, no good behavior. Then we tried the prong which worked immediately but we haven't been able to transition away from it and any time we don't have it with us he went right back to doing whatever. I found your videos and we were able to do our first no prong loose leash walk this past week. I think we may be in the same boat as Sam's owner with the dog park stuff, it's just not really worth it because he's not going to back down with wanting to be dominant with other dogs and I'd rather not risk any dog getting hurt. I like that you aren't afraid to just tell someone that sort of thing.

All the great videos posted, eventually a dog will come up and do exactly what I’m trying to deal with and I learn how to address it. 😊

Is it possable to keep him that way once the testoserone kicks in? There are no vets in my area that will perform a vasectomy, it's either castration or nothing.

I have 3 year old lab who pulls like nobody's business and is like a rock when I stop and pop ( works fine with his sister) I cancelled the gentle leader because the halti was useless with both of them. Then his recall is crap so now I have to get him on the leash more. That's making his reactivity worse and he's loosing his social skills. And he does his own thing and he is "CONSTANTLY LEAVING". and yes I give him walks every day. And at home I'm the boss and he's food oriented bit out he's all about meeting other dogs and if they hate him there could be a scrap.

The proof is in the results. If you are working with a "trainer" and not getting results real quick it is time for a change. It does make me cringe to see him getting corrected with a head halter to the side. I know a dog who got permanent neck injury and permanent nerve damage from the same type of correction. But to each his own. Glad he said don't tell him to sit. Yay! He has to be responsible for himself and not micro managed. Let him think! Love the fact that you are not using treats but using pressure and release, which is the best way to train. yes, don't hold him back, teach him to hold himself back, impulse control!

Hey Joel. Just a question, is it necessary that a dog should consistently be on one side (either left or right) all the time when walking, or is it ok to switch from time to time. Because, usually, when I walk my 7 month old Giant Schnauzer, I switch him from left to right, or vice versa, depending on which side of the street we're on. If the sidewalk is to my left, I let him walk on the left, and if it's on the right, I let him walk on the right. Is this acceptable, or should I be more consistent?

We are working on getting out the door but I feel like I'm losing some ground cause my dogs looking around while I'm distracted with the door and my stuff. I live in an apartment and a person or dog can walk out at any moment. My dog knows this and is very on alert. Suggestions?
@jameschild13212 жыл бұрын
I have to lock the door before I get out of sight of it... Maybe practice fake outs with the door lock!?!? So, it's the same concept as stepping out from inside to outside the apartment... You can't be in a rush to get somewhere. You practice only at distance so you can still see the door for safety, if it's still unlocked. Do your routine to leave, set it up, as if your going to lock it, but you'll be keeping an eye on him for any reason to correct (he has to believe your distracted by the lock😉) Then get to acting as if, correct. Act as if & start to walk away, all good, then go back to lock... Don't allow yourself to be distracted by locking, until he's totally under control & be prepared to stop and start over until he's watching you to finish locking it. He needs to be waiting for the cue to look away & move forward with the walk. Not paying attention to the surroundings since he knows you are distracted. Does that make sense?
@sarahbshults95122 жыл бұрын
@@jameschild1321 Yes, it makes sense and a great suggestion. Do you think I should have him watch me the entire time? Maybe treats to keep attention? I'm not fan of using treats as he's a lab mix and once food is involved it's all over. 😂 When we are inside he is okay at "watch me" command, but outside he is very distracted. His attention to me outside has greatly improved since I've been doing Joel's methods. It's a work in progress. Inside he is amazing but outside he's a whole different dog. I really appreciate the idea. I'm willing to try what it takes to make his life and mine better.

My dog has to sit on each side of the door, which helps, if theres a dog close by that he hasn't seen i will say "find it" and toss 5 -10 treats on the ground. He can still smell the dog and hear it but hes more focused on the food.

Does all the same things count for a dog that is in general fearful of everything, besides other animals and just lays flat whenever he sees one, but jumps up to run and play with them? Touch him during his outbreak means he will attack you instead. Even holding the leash short can cause him to jump and snap at you.

I come from K9 fsmily. Just got a an American Labrador puppy. Probably spent 6 months talking to different breeders to find one with good parents and with the traits i want etc. Making sure i set the dog and myself up for success. I don't know if I'm impressed by people who get rescue dogs or if i feel sorry for dog and owners if they can't handle each other.

I’ve got a rescue dog where I don’t know who his parents are, but he’s a darling and a totally normal dog. No, that’s not right…. He’s super smart! 😁

You can do a video of walking more than one dog at a time! I do pretty good when I only walk one but when I walk them together it’s not so great. Thanks

So much brilliance is missed in not having your guest mic’d. Your responses to their comments are often missing important context.
