How to help jumping, nipping or any other obnoxious behavior

[@johnnyfever9708]

The problem for most people is they get a dog because they want a friend, someone to love them. They hope the dog will naturally act in the right way without them having to train and correct their friend. They don't want to risk the friendly relationship they have with their dog by being the boss. But that's a recipe for disaster whether raising dogs or kids. Your dog can still be your friend, but he first has to respect you.

[@WollongongSkyWatch]

I know too many humans with this idea; it's very sad for their dogs.

[@dabiggdogg1027]

Very Well said I agree 100% good video. I like this comment as well. I’ve had 3 Cane Corso my youngest is 3 months old. Play if you want to they’ll show you whose boss and you don’t want that trust me.

You're so right 👍

[@jessicajarsak7812]

Yeah and dogs actually need discipline because they are just like little kids lol. Little toddlers in dog bodies.

[@jillsy2815]

Exactly!!! I used to tell my kids, "I don't care if you like me or not; I'm trying to raise a good person." 🙏🏽❤️

[@Boyhead1973]

I fully support everything you say 100%... I have an 8-month-old Border Collie and a 59-year-old husband. As I try to be consistent with his training, I also have to train my husband who is NOT consistent.

[@throwaway2478]

I currently have a 7 month old BC. I've always been a cat person, so having a BC as your first dog, not easy, but it is very rewarding. Luckily I don't also have the husband😂

[@RpgeeX]

Girls, you do know that your BC is watching this KZbin channel right now?

[@name.terrie]

"Correction", "meaning business", being no nonsense doesn't translate to being mean or abusive to our nuggets. I have to say, the leash training I learned from you/your channel and recall have been absolutely game changers. I so love the dogs I have the privilege to foster. I want the best for them, I strive to keep them safe, and for them to thrive. You have helped me help them so very much. Thanks soooo much.

[@terridavis9278]

Training MUST start when that cute little furry sweet puppy enters your home. It is easy to love the little guy and laugh at all its antics but that little guy is going to grow up. So from the very start the puppy must understand nothing happens without your say so. You are the leader / boss. Remember if you don't want a grown dog to jump on you then don't let a puppy jump on you. Short time pain (in training a puppy non stop) equals long time gain (a well behaved adult dog). Another great informative video from Joel.

Indeed. You can't expect a puppy to follow but still you must repeat without discouraging your self, they're field with so much Energy and Joy but it's pur duty to let them know what's unacceptable

I've been binge watching Joel's channel for 2 days now, and I am fully invested in his guidance. I love the fact that he speaks to us like real people and doesn't coddle us in a baby voice. Finally found someone that speaks my language (and my puppy's!)

[@carolelawmac7921]

Can’t wait to put this into action! We have 4 dogs. One (Australian Shepherd) is OUT OF CONTROL. I’ve never had a dog as hyper as him. We live on 5 acres and they exercise regularly, but this one has absolutely zero self control with jumping and getting in our space. This succinct video is exactly what I was looking for. 🙏🏽

[@debbiearchibald]

I have a 5 month Aussie. She is the worst puppy I have ever had. This is the first puppy we have had which I didn't have an older dog. Me and my husband are now the older dogs and we are to old for that lol. I don't know if we made a mistake getting an Aussie.

[@rawrevelations2002]

I am having the same issue… my 4 month old Aussie is SO Smart. She makes up her own training tricks! She’s so smart! She watches me every second. So If my eyes leave her direction she immediately does something that’s a “no.” I am working with her 3 times a day. After we have a wonderful training and play!!! She then bolts and pulls the leash so hard she’s going to break her own neck and pull my fingers out of my joints. She goes wiggly worm wild. Biting nipping. I’m bleeding from teeth, bruised and sore. She acts apologetic when I grab her by the skin of the neck and coller *** til next time!!! I have so much fun with her and now she’s been in the kennel more than out. It has to stop, pup or not… a few days ago I thought a prong or vibration collar was cruel. Now I’m going to see how much they cost… this dog is smart, my friend said… She’s gonna be a really good dog for you… in 3 years😂😂😂😂

[@1974newton]

With the biting... I think many people lose temper when dog is not doing the right thing and face up to the dog and point fingers and raise voice etc. Before that? no leadership no rules dog is pulling and than bam the owner freaks out. Nearly Noone correct the dog before set rules and stay calm the same time. When I teach people about dogs this is one of my important advices : stay calm when correcting. Check your pulse and get yourself together cause your the boss. They bite from fear and loosing trust to you. Love your videos Joel 👍🏼

[@annettestephens5337]

Thank you Joel. I am a naturally passive person who shys away from confrontation. Owning a dog has challenged me hugely but your videos have taught me the importance of stepping up and being in charge. I have had to act out of character and be very assertive with my super confident/head strong young dog. It felt ‘mean and unloving’ at first, but the results are undeniable. My dog does not seem to understan subtly, so I have followed your lead and been clear, firm and consistent as much as can. If I have an ‘off day’ I will pay for it later!!

[@bluboyblu6315]

Joel! You're right on buddy!! Until your dog understands that you are the pack leader and the boss in your house behavior problems are extremely difficult to correct! A little tough love is in order here . My sister owns a small toy dog and one time just applying some of your techniques on a walk, I had her dog under control within 5 minutes and she could not believe it! But she and her husband continue to baby and pamper the dog with affection when she misbehaves, and so they continue to have problems. The other thing is everyone in the family needs to be on the same page about training the dog and be disciplined and consistent about it, otherwise, the dog will only be confused and never learn direction! Just my 2 cents! Cheers!

[@myrjoline]

Word!

[@triciawade8634]

Good to hear this as our 50+ kg 11 month old Caucasian Shepherd is terrible for jumping and mouthing and with her size it hurts! . We’ve started doing as you state as our breeder gave us the same advice - few days in and already seeing improvements - consistency is the key for sure 🤞🏻🤞🏻

[@tracielillytan1530]

Thank you! I loved this video. I did a four week puppy class and came away thinking “That was a waste of my time, energy and money” I’ve learned more in this one video because it resonates with me…it’s not about being angry and yelling at my dog, it’s about taking charge!

[@sammokkasmith]

There are great trainers and bad trainers just like any other profession.

[@ravelanone9462]

A million thumbs up! I can’t always catch my 8-month-old ACD/Border Collie/mutt mix when she won’t come in when called. When she’s in the mood to turn it into a game and I’m not, it’s difficult. She’s incredibly fast, and I’m a petite woman who is not fast enough! 😆 What I’ve found effective so far is to give her “the look”-a direct, unwavering stare, and point at her and tell her to sit. She quickly figures out that I mean business and she lies down and stays put while I approach, and then often shows her belly. I have the leash with me, and she gets put on the leash and brought inside, no problem. No playing till a bit later. It’s been working…but she’s 8 months, so I’m remaining vigilant. Joel, you are brilliant; thank you!

[@JardineFlower]

Omg, I freaking love his training concepts! Straight and to the point, with NO FLUFF! 😂

[@kacydodson4888]

This is the best trainer! Just what I was looking for. It was hard to find a trainer that believed in tough love. I have a Yorkiepoo that is 6 months old and understands no,, no longer nips at my hands, comes to me, will walk by my side off leash (I only use a standard 5ft. leash) and the best thing I'm teaching him is no barking. I don't mind being alerted to someone coming but then he stops barking. I hate a yelping little dog. You are going to have to be strong against the opinions of your friends and family. I keep hearing , oh he's only a puppy or they are supposed to barking, you're to touch on him etc. While there dogs are jumping up on me. Stay strong, these videos work, even for my 8 pound Yorkiepoo. Thank you for being such a wonderful trainer and teaching us what to do. ❤

[@MaryJ0]

Wow! You can see this sort of behaviour in our communities with parents who have out of control teens! Spare the rod spoil the child mentality 😮 I don't understand how people can abuse their dog/child, and it's the same thing with discipline. We have a generation of poor, unattentive, ineffectual and lazy parenting....goes in the same lane w their dogs. I completely understand. No freaking abuse, just good stern parenting. Give these pet dogs some honest, consistent guidance and attention. Let them know who is boss... Period. Thank you for the excellent advice.

Ughh I cannot explain how much I love your demeanor with UNACCEPTABLE behaviors! Thank you for sharing this information because when I share this collective knowledge it’s almost as if the owner thinks I’m not aware of what I’m saying when it comes to firm and assertive correction. Thank youu !!

[@roxannecapitani1939]

Good pep talk Mr Beckman. 😄

[@swn69]

One more thing... 80% of the bad behaviors you mention, my dog does not do, so I am very happy to know he's not as bad as I think. Doesn't counter surf, doesn't bite or nip, is not aggressive, he rarely barks, he doesn't bolt out doors, etc. He has a sketchy recall (getting better using your method) and he is still leash reactive when he wants to meet other dogs or people, he will try to pull me toward them. This is also getting better using your method. Baby steps.

[@thefifthhorseman8886]

I’m so glad I found this channel. We just got a Doberman about 10 days ago and I started applying his methods and the difference in the last 6 days has been really impressive. We still have a lot of work to do, but she’s doing really well on a leash for a 7 month old (female) but she’s skiddish going in and out of doorways.

[@LauraLemleyLucas]

I have been so grateful for finding your channel and all your videos. My favorite 2 channels right now are yours and Zacks (the reality training series), because they have given me real life expectations of my dog. And yours was the only video I've seen that broke it down for me that what ages we can expect dogs/puppies to learn some of these things. And learning that my dog is not abnormally acting like a psycho; this is very normal and it's up to me to get it under control, I needed it!. Thank you so much. We cant all be out there on the west coast or paying to come to you regularly so your insight has been invaluable! And I've said it before, but finding a trainer who doesn't rely on "correctional" collars to deal with just regular unacceptable behavior, a Godsend! Thank you!

[@cynthiakarkeys]

This came just in time for me! My 8-month-old just started getting squirrelly and started mouthing me... I added an extra walk and it got better, but the mouthing started again after a couple weeks. Thank you Joel for giving this first time puppy owner the tools I need to stay sane.

A Grammy here. I found this looking for what I could do when my son & partner's not-well-trained, very energetic, now 1 yr. old, med-large mix, enters my purvey of 'authority'. I have similar issue with my 3yo granddaughter's fly-off-the-handle behaviors. mpo: Examples that "Gentle Parenting" (and too much screen-teaching/playing) is useless to raising functional, adjustable, or sustainable beings...any kind. Thanks for a refreshing model of wiser perspective...perfect! :)

[@chrisnossoughi9039]

By six weeks old my puppies know already no teeth on humans. They learn it within two attempts. The consequences are a fast and timed squeeze of the muzzle . They squeak a second and the release is immediate. They quickly respond with respectful licking. I learned this from our mama BoerBoels who taught me most of my dog training

[@KingsMom831]

Yep it’s all about being the leader. You will know, when you are seen as the leader because things start to shift. You have to embody a pack leader. And you HAVE to mean what you say & FOLLOW THROUGH.

[@robinrutherfordcost4748]

Also want to watch or know if your dog is being bad to be good. Negative attention is better than none at all. It's human nature to wait til they do something wrong to correct them, but if they aren't getting praised or reinforced positively for doing something right, especially a puppy that doesn't even know better, you might be creating the issues just so your dog gets some kind of interaction or reaction from you. Praise and acknowledge what they are doing correct, (catch them doing something right) so they clearly understand, yes, that's the behavior I want, keep doing that. Even if it's just a thumbs up - if you don't want to say anything, but so much better for both of you when you verbally acknowledge what you want. Like Joel's puppy voice. I still forward your videos to my students, Joel. Loved the comment about no prongs or shock collars too! 👍

[@jillsy2815]

This is why I respect and adore you so much!!!! 🙏🏽❤️🐾

[@pmlm1571]

I just got up off my duff and got my dog by the collar and brought her in and sat her down and looked at her, then let her go. That was for not coming when I called her to come in and stop barking at a squirrel. After I let her go, she went and laid down inside her crate all on her own. wow.

[@maxinebulldog7095]

You are so no nonsense i love it. 😊 in our house wen we have had our puppies they learn straight away rules an boundaries and we make it biblical if they started to nip or show any other unacceptable behaviour...if you dont want a 50k dog doing bad stuff then dont accept it wen they only weigh 10k.🤷‍♀️🙂

[@asp1213]

Awesome advice Joel. 👏 You've said it before in other videos. Once you really take the mindset of being the boss, and putting the time in and consistency on the corrections literally everything falls into place. I mush and love and squish my dogs almost constantly. Before finding your channel, I was also wishy washy on correcting pretty much anything my dogs didn't want to do. I have an extremely athletic high prey drive 3yo pit bull that was also the sweetest most cuddly dog, that was quickly on her way to becoming dangerous. Once I changed my behavior and followed these methods consistently, the changes in my dogs are nothing short of miraculous. I didn't just work on fence reactivity or leash reactivity, I worked on ALL the things. You can do this people!!!! I am not mean. I still mush and squish my dogs all the time lol. They still love me. But there is absolutely no question, I am the boss and unacceptable behaviors are unacceptable. Period. Having consistency and rules is good for the dogs and just as good for the owner. I enjoy my dogs so much more because I have so much less stress and frustration. It takes time and consistency. Sometimes it really sucks having to put my shoes on and 'go get' my dog from the yard late at night after a failed recall though lol I'm not going to lie! But that is getting better too, everyday.

Excellent advice as always and I enforce it when I’m with the dog I don’t mind doing it all day. However my kids and wife don’t follow my lead at all. It’s hard to be the “boss” of the dog when you’re not the “boss “of the house. Which brings up a video suggestion: How to train a dog effectively has a family?

Yes, each of us has to have "the will" -- we need to have "the will" AND we need to have the DISCIPLINE to deal with those behaviors EVERY TIME. I confess that too many times, when my 10-month, 45-lb, pup rocketed to the end of the leash, I have just let go of the leash. Because I was too tired, or just didn't want to feel that massive jolt again.

[@BuffBodHotRod]

[@LSZEsq]

They make leashes out of rock climbing rope, and various thicknesses, that do a good job of absorbing the shock. You really just can’t let the dog go. It’s going to get run over.

[@MB-lf8rm]

@@LSZEsq Everyone knows you "just can't let the dog go" when there are roads nearby. I only have let her go when we are out in the woods, miles away from any road. Also, while we still have a thing or two to work on with this pup, one of the things she is excellent at is staying close by and recall. She is ALWAYS within twenty yards of me, and she races back to me like a shot when I call her. She is one heck of a good young dog.

[@BlingEyeCandy]

Since finding you on YT, I cannot stop watching and learning from you. Your videos are getting better each time I watch. The only suggestion I have is puting a microphone on the owner or repeat back their comment or question because it may be a question we are all asking. I see great results, that's all that needs to be said. Ignore the naysayers, they are inexperienced and overestimated. If it ain't broke don't fix it!

[@Triciak6]

I called and left a voicemail and the answer was here along!! I just needed to hear it on the podcast and get another pep talk on KZbin😊. I know I’m not assertive naturally so after hearing this (and every pod) the whole family is making a plan to address the natural behaviors a puppy does as it grows from puppy, to adolescent, to adulthood, before we get the dog. We are practicing responding with the Uh-uh in a calm, matter of fact but not playful way. For people who have to work at leadership skills more than others, I think rehearsal is key. The behaviors are inevitable so we’re preparing collectively as a family. Still curious how to find the balance between socialization with a puppy and not overwhelming a puppy. We live rural on 10 wooded acres and want to be able to work on skills to bring the dog to busy locations with sounds/ lots of stimulation. My kids race bikes, there’s loud clicking of hubs, air compressed hissing of metal gates dropping, in addition to loud cheering/pa systems. Would you work on conditioning calmness and a “settle” to those noises, played over the phone, at home first? If so what age/signs would show readiness for working on socialization/calmness in that environment directly? I’ll be here 💯

While I may not necessarily agree with the whole "pack leader/boss" mentality, I absolutely agree with "having the willpower" to do things. I have a friend who recently got a puppy, and both he and his girlfriend always ask me what to do when X occurs. Just like you, I can tell them what to do, but chances are, they already know what to do - they just don't have the willpower to do it. This is especially true of his girlfriend, where she just stares / breaks down / yells as their puppy does all sorts of undesirable behaviors. When I suggest that she physically correct the dog (in a sort of go-get method), she claims she doesn't want to be the mean parent. I facepalm every time...

[@goymedhundDogtrainingBehavior]

Great video.( first sorry for the spelling - i am scandinavian ) I agree - so much could have been done if the dogs get an apropriate amount of good stimuli. I see this over and over - Some of these dogs are classifed as group Atype dogs and there is so much underlying stress . Sadly many owners7trainers think that a "calm" dog is indeed calm...they do not know that the dog can be highly aroused internaly and that the cortisol level is dangerously high. . So if the dog behaves the way your patreon talked about i actually think this might be a group A dog..The "deciding when to listen" , jumping biting getting worse when met with "hands on" solutions ( knee up to stop etc) . They might be super stressed internaly and are trying to avoid the owner - not being stubborn.. .This is a hard situation and this type of behavior must be met with a long time plan - empathy and a thorough understanding of dog behavior ( the updated kind - not the Millan way ;) .. i love how you tell people that they should not watch YT videos when they have the biting problem. For regular problems YT can be a treasure trove.. :)

I grabbed her collar and held her down and she panicked, snapping wildly, I managed to get a stick for her to bit on and slowly was able to calm her down. I'm not sure if I am over exercising her and she is getting overwhelmed. We start a group puppy obedience class in a few weeks, the trainer suggested shortening our walks and ending them with a few basic obedience drills with some treats as rewards. Sorry for the long post. If you or any of your followers have advice, I would love to hear it. Thanks again!

At 14 weeks, that’s a baby. Baby brain. Go find Joel’s video on the stages of puppyhood.

I have a 5 month old female Rottweiler and she acts the same way at times. She gets the zoomies and goes crazy and starts trying to affect me. She has done it about 4-5 times. I do the same hold her leash until she is calm. I always always have treats on me. It’s tough because I can’t really trust her but I know she is a great dog. Maybe it’s a rottie thing. She used to be a land shark but that has calmed down dramatically as she has gotten older. She went through puppy obedience class it was good for socializing but she didn’t really learn anything new. I’m considering a board and train with her soon. How is it going with your dog?

[@stephenowen1644]

@@Smuvbee74 she's getting a bit better. She make a different sounding play growl when she has these spells. Also a pattern has emerged. It almost always hits around 7 am and 7 pm. I'm up at 4:30 so I can feed, train and walk her, by 7:30 she is worn out. I get home at 5 pm, feed train walk by 7 pm she's growling and attacks my shoes. My management strategy: I use " pet corrector " arisol spray, makes a loud hiss sound. I use it to startle her and make her stop. Then immediately off to her crate. I try and calm her down but I will stuff her in if needed. I leave her in for 10 to 30 minutes. She is always really sweet when she comes out. At 8 to 8:30 every night I give her a frozen marrow bone. These have helped a lot. After the marrow is gone, I stuff them with canned dog food a freeze them. She has improved a great deal this week. She has stopped biting, walking on leash without pulling. And yesterday had only a slight episode, after 10 minutes in her crate she was back to normal. I hope this helps. Check out pet corrector

fantastic and common sense advice - thank you

[@sallykingman8169]

You are so right!! Thanks,Joel. I wish people would do this with their children as well, I was a teacher for many years

May I suggest the gentle leader?

[@Int3x0r]

We found your channel and learned a lot. The thing is: our labrador/shepperd mix listens to me (42y male), but when my wife does the same things the dog just keeps going on and on with the nipping and things escalate sometimes. Not that we hurt him, just grabbing the collar, making him sit just like you say, but the moment he's loose he continues to harass my wife. Never happens to me. Perhaps because my physique and voice are more imposing?

[@leejennifercorlewayres9193]

Same thing over here. My boyfriend he listens to but with me he thinks it's party play time 🎉🥳. I put my foot down harder than anything and the dog still thinks he doesn't have to listen. Had to put him in a prong collar so I can safely walk him.

I'm reviewing your videos and we might be on the edge of "need trainer not youtube" but I'm still reviewing and researching. That said, in the context of this video, I'm dealing with a 3+ year old rescue who is pretty well mannered inside but behaves badly when offleash in the backyard. "Going and getting" to apply that "this is unacceptable" energy isn't an option for a variety of reasons. I'm mixing separation (he values interaction) and command + treat redirection to attempt to establish a different baseline of engagement. The next idea I'm considering is ecoller or require on leash (though he bites/hold leashes often) or building a temporary dog run to narrow the open area instead of the entire fenced backyard... allowing more opportunity to go-and-get. (I should say I'm interested in any video recommendations for adult dogs exhibiting behavior described in this video but without an ability to easily go-get. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.)

[@ilonamannan]

Hi. Can this methods be used on 5 month old puppy? We have Great Dane and there are times during walks he starts obnoxious jumping and biting (not aggressive). He is over 70lb now so “puppy” behaviour is more like adult dog size one. Thanks

Great video and so acurate!

Great video

[@clarity2199]

I have a sister with an out of control dog. She used to have 3-4 dogs when she was younger, so I don't understand why she can't get this one dog under control. I have referenced a lot of your videos to her. I think a lot of the problem is she doesn't let the dog get out enough. He's bored out of his mind. Because of which, he literally chews everything, he jumps, he mouths, he doesn't listen or behave. Fortunately, it's not my dog, I just feel bad....for the dog. She really needs to work on him more.

[@dougmerrick9064]

I go to the dog park to let my dog play with others. So many owners conpletely allow their dog to bite legs and faces, start fights for no reason, and jump up on people. When they see me leash and make my dog sit for jackass behavior they are all shocked. " good luck controlling your dog at the park" is a common saying from the average owner. I tell them exactly what beckman says. These behaviors are unacceptable and im the boss. There is no doing whatever she wants. The all give the surprised pikachu face. Average dog owners may own their dog, but their dog is in charge.

I just got my first real puppy. A Samoyed. Into 3rd week. His mouthiness was pretty bad when we got him. I watched vids on correction methods. Especially since I have young (4,3,1) kids, one of who keeps putting her fingers in his mouth. It took a couple weeks, but he's just suddenly clicked at 11 weeks. He is much more careful not to actually put his mouth on the kids. When he plays with my youngest he learned to be careful not to jump and land on him, and not nip either. His mouthiness is almost completely gone. I have used voice and active corrections, but also redirect and reward. When I saw him hold himself back with my youngest. He got huge praise and his favorige treat. But is this wrong? He isn't even 3 months yet.

[@drccddmm]

I have been trying the go-get method when my dog does not come. She treats it like a game and I would spend 10 minutes trying to get her and failed. It felt like it could go on forever.

[@martynrich5187]

Question, I have a Puppy15 wk GSD who starts to walk but after 20m's sits down and doesnt like to walk any further (quiet street and i recognise she's a baby/dont expect to walk far). If i take her to a park she'll walk because dogs are around, which encourages her to walk and play, but not on streets. I dont remember on having this issue with my last GSD puppy - she wanted to go everywhere.

[@angebrowne1371]

Thank U yep over it ..😮😊

[@kjab87]

Sometimes our 6 month old male Samoyed runs away after a jump, air bite. It mostly happens during the witching hour or when he’s over-stimulated. We crate him for 15 minutes and he’s better. My concern is if this continues if he gets bigger. Any suggestions? What are your thoughts about neutering and vaccines? We’d like to keep him Intact. Thank you for your realistic training methods.

[@MoonwolfAkirooo]

Its true, I need to work on my voice and energy when my dog does behavior like jumping into the collar for chasing chicken. Just yesterday it happened and I was too soft with saying "no". I need to explode, so the dog gets it instantly - if it works the first time perfectly and she gets surprised by my harsh correction, theres no second time needed to correct the behavior.

[@avfeland]

Advice for training a 7 month GS rescue to house cats? Thankfully she doesn't view them as prey, but rather as weird small dogs. She tries to play but shes too big and hyper. My cats have thwapped her, ive corrected her. Shell run 5-10 feet away but then turn around and do it again. Best ive been able to do is kennel her for 10 minutes after the 2nd or 3rd correction so she can chill out and try again

[@amarijamison459]

This person just described my 8 month old rottie who already weighs over 100 pounds (rivaling me in weight).

[@therealbc8524]

I needed this today. We adopted a 6 month old large breed mix and his "witching hour" is hell in my house. I am implementing the "go get" method when he jumps on the couch but he's so damn fast its hard for me to catch him. Me coming towards him is a total game to this dog. I get so frustrated!! Should I just stand still until he approaches and then grab him and put in him a "sit" or put him in his "place" (his bed)?

[@allyhastie2944]

I'm trying to find some solutions for my English bulldog/ English staffy. He will jump and softly nip guests who come over or if I raise my energy he will try the same. Husband thinks it's playful I think it's attention seeking, and dominant. His lack of impulse control contributes. Is he playing or trying to control everything?

[@terrycross952]

Hey Joel, i have a question about gentle leader. I started using it on my Golden Retriever 4months old puppy because he was pulling hard on a leash. Whats the best time to start using gentle leader?

[@4b494d]

I think Joel mentioned this advice is for 7mo to 2years. Do we let him nip and bite under that? For my 5mo puppy I try to give him stuff to chew to replace what he chews ... But it doesn't always work even when I have brand new bullysticks and cod skins and Kong's.... Not sure what else to do for younger puppies
