How to STOP your dog pulling on leash! - STOP dog from pulling

In this video Stop Leash Pulling - Stop your dog from pulling on the leash can be easy after this video! This is the first time Thomas has worked with this dog and the immediate change in behavior is apparent. In minutes zeus goes from too stressed to take any directions to a good heel and a much more laid back state of mind. Thomas explains exactly how to use the leash for correction to stop leash pulling as well as what not to do.

[@jenniandrob]

Verbal commands need to be consistent between multiple owners, handlers. Dogs are not bilingual. If its "heel " it is not "walk" with someone else.

[@XXJDOGKILLAxX]

Soon as I seen buddy hit his head I came to the comments knowing someone was talking about it, and the first comment I saw was about him hitting his head lolllll!!!!

[@katdoll8226]

He just hit his head on camera and probably knew it was going to be put up on YT, that was the best reaction he could've had 🤷🏼‍♀️🤣 Actually I take that back..would've been better if everyone else had noticed, but he just completely did not acknowledge it at all and just kept a steady pace forward, like nothing had happened. 🤣

It's absolutely fascinating to see this dog go from looking at EVERYthing he can to legit watching Thomas' legs for what to follow. Incredible.

[@michaelangelos5117]

Through my dog, I have become a much better dog trainer. Some of my dog's misbehaviors were due to my inability to train him correctly.

[@lisawillis3]

Michael Angelos same here

[@FullNelson007]

Same here.. finally figured that out after giving away 2 $1200 rottweilers lmao.. very expensive learning experience for me there.. I finally just went with hand commands only with a clicker.. no verbal communication or command except the clicker.. I use that as the attention grabber and to call the dog .. another words he is never too far to hear the clicker but if he is he is always watching me regardless of where he is for the fact all his commands are from hand signals therefore he has to watch me. But that's when the clicker comes in to play. For ex. if he is not watching me or is laying around I'll click once for his attention, then 2 clicks for "come" or a hand command.. hand commands are so much easy than verbal commands.. and your able to communicate with your dog while out in town or in the house while the baby is asleep without anyone knowing.. best thing ever.. I've worked extremely hard to only obey hand signals or the clicker. After 6 months he will not take any verbal commands from me, my wife, the kids or anyone else far as that goes.. extremely nice in my opinion.. 1 thing to always remember....your dog DOES NOT speak English or any other language nor does he automatically understand your words.. Good luck to everyone who may never read this. God bless

[@michaelangelos5117]

@@FullNelson007 that's really cool. If I want my dog to come I just point at my feet. Works very well. If I want him to heal, then I will just walk away and point at my feet again and he follows. Same with getting in the car or going into the house. It's pretty cool.

[@FullNelson007]

@@michaelangelos5117 yeah I'd have to say it's truly the coolest thing about having a dog. If you don't have a clicker I'd say give it a try.. when your useing hand commands try to use 1 finger pointing down at your feet as you said for "here or come" 2 (I use pointer and thumb) for my signal to heel.. just different ways you use your hand so your dog is not seeing the same commands for each task.. would kinda be like saying "come" for all 3 main things.. come, sit & down.. dogs are very intelligent and can see the difference in your hand each time trust me..

I met a young man today training his young female shepherd. He was doing your “tune up” and I asked him if he’d seen your KZbin videos. He said yes! He loved you and learnt how to train his dog with your videos. He got this dog after his friend was giving her up because she was so unruly. His beautiful girl was doing so well, no pulling, she was engaged, just perfect!! I thought WOW!! The power of KZbin & a great trainer is changing the world. Well done Tom!

[@TIA1127]

This is an excellent explanation. I'm an introvert, i don't naturally like people but it isn't an excuse for bad behavior. I like my people but not everyone is my kind of people. Same goes with dogs.

Our walks were so much better within one day just doing everything you said in this video. Thank you!!! Now we can all enjoy our walks.

I'm guessing just tie a bowline at the end and slide the end thru then put another bowline on the end for the clasp. This keeps the loop from cinching down on itself.

When you said “the public is going to fail you”, that’s the damn truth! No matter how many signs you can have, people don’t pay attention.

[@victoriaavis5559]

So true! I have a 1 year old that is definitely still in training when it comes to greeting people so I got a leash that says "DO NOT PET" over and over and over again and people STILL kept reaching their hands out to say hi 🙃 ended up using that leash AND getting a bandana that says "in training" Finally, people leave us alone for the most part

[@fairiewinterbee]

oh shit that's a great idea i never thought of. I for real need to get that signage

[@larawalker4737]

Good video. I was really interested in the question that got cut. It was about what to do if the dog reacts to the squirrel. How would that be handled? Is there a video addressing that scenario?

[@crexx8296]

These leash pulling videos are awesome! You should do one with little dogs (ex. Yorkies). Its tricky with short little dogs. Also is a harness better in that situation?

[@annejones5463]

Nice!

[@kizmoxstar4723]

Great explanation on not using prong. I use the prong with my GS because she wanted to keep constant leash pressure, even while being otherwise well behaved. That can cause nerve damage in the dog, but I never realized how bad she was until I injured my hand and that slight pull hurt. Now there is ZERO leash tension on a heel. My other dog does not need this level of inervention.

[@danabyrd891]

I had to Upgrade to prong Collar to get my dogs attention, he’s a Rottweiler puppy and very very big at 10 months old. Fortunately the collar got his attention and he doesn’t resist it at all I’m almost to the point of changing over to another collar. The point is I can’t have a dog dragging me because he’s huge and I’m not and I want him to be obedient and my protector not a silly heart dog that’s all over the place and running me over. I have just lost my female after 12 years and it broke my heart he will never be what she was but hopefully he’ll be close.

[@trigelvza]

Same here, I have a 4 mos old BM. She is always excited when we go outside and keep on pulling the leash. I am afraid that her throat might get damage that is why I am using the prong now. No more pulling on the leash because now I can communicate with her clearly.

[@LouiseRitaKnowlesFaith]

I appreciate this so much I wish you’d make a follow up even more detailed. Lily and I were loving tug and it started to “turn ugly” enough that I wasn’t comfortable and I have avoided playing tug since. Tug seems to be her favorite thing to do and guidance to make it enjoyable for us both is really needed. How do you decided when it’s a good time to give your Bull the toy? Does he take it from you at times? There is a power dynamic here that I am not really knowing how to handle with my Lily. Thanks.

[@tomn1796]

Wow! Was having issues making progress with our pup on leash pulling. After I got the pop down correctly, my dog has been much better on the leash. Definitely being engaged with the dog helped her listen better

[@andrewkellerhals1361]

Ability to communicate with animals Dog Whisperer who I know personally is a bit daunting to some people I guess. But very integral in the training process. This intuitive ability that we all have. He cryptically in his name and in his technique calls energy.

[@cookiechaina1238]

I’m starting to work with a Rottweiler who is very very strong and obese. I’d like to be able to take him for walks, but I understand that it’s going to take some training beforehand to get him to not pull me away. He’s very friendly, so friendly in fact that if he sees another dog he’ll pull to say hi to it. I’m really excited to see how far his training can go and how his leash and communication skills will improve. One step at a time.

[@alexyes4290]

Very helpful! Thank you very much. I have a female Australian Shepherd who is very disengage when we go out for walk. She was very pulling at the beginning, now she’s doing better, can it be useful to use a martingale or a slip collar? Where I live these tools are not very used but I agree about their effectiveness. Thank you!!!

[@shelbyworks9215]

I have a high arousal but also very anxious pitbull who pulls severelyyyy on the leash to the point I feel like I might get pulled over. 🥲 Going to be studying your videos until my slip lead comes in

[@PawsuasiveDogTeaching]

19:12 Great answer to why you did not use the prong. I myself have not needed to use a prong collar in years to teach a dog not to pull on the leash. I teach not to pull on a leash pretty much the same way you do but I do something just a bit different. I will actually reverse direction when the dog tugs too much one way. This has worked wonders with my dog Ruby. Plus something I would have done with this dog before the real teaching started is exercise or play first to get out some of that excess energy. I know when I take my Ruby to events with me and if I do not exercise her first before we go she can be such a turd. Great video upstate.
