How to Train a Dog to "Heel" (K9-1.com)

[@EchoChick2009]

this video helped us immensely, thanks! it's nice that the cute little doggy is a beginner. i mean, u actually get to see a dog learn from scratch. lots of KZbin vid's will demonstrate with a dog that already knows wat to do!? it REALLY helped to see how to deal with a doggy that mite not "get it right" the very first time. thanks again.

[@Victor-mu6xl]

[@nairnmonster]

I agree, so many people have trained adult dogs so it's not easy to see young or untrained reacting to the training. Great videos that are not patronising. 👍🏻

My oldest son is in his early 20's and he has type 1 diabetes. But thank God for this piece of article kzbin.infoUgkxibD_L3sDyYENL5CwePCd9plRBqjzw2mw At first he thought he had the flu and was lying down on the bed for three days until his sister took him to the hospital. They took his blood and it was 600. What I do not understand is how he could have gotten it, since no one in the family has it. But he is winning the battle now. This is a good stuff.

[@Pianopenguinz3]

Thank you for showing how to do this not only with a dog that isn't already trained, but also with positive reinforcement training! So many heel/walking videos I see are heavily focused on a slip lead or a prong. I had started training this a little bit with my dog but the tips to swing wider for a larger dog and to start at phase one and then add movement is really helpful!

[@fabiantimmins2224]

Really depends heavily on the breed and what their primary drives are. This form of training would be almost completely useless with a guard/protection breed as they have little to no food drive. Slip lead and prong collars are extemely effective tools when used correctly, you are supposed to be aiming for a loose leash anyway so the slip or prong are merely an attention grabber.

[@Hayri2011]

All dogs have food drive, otherwise they'd starve to death. Aversive tools are for lazy and incompetent trainers​@fabiantimmins2224

[@gregt.5299]

This is a great video. Way better than all the other "Heel" videos I've seen on KZbin. I only wish I had seen this earlier.

[@k9-1]

thank you! Be sure to watch the "phase 2" version as well on our channel.

[@Bimmerboy353]

Hey, I really wanna teach this to my future german shepherd, I just wanna know which steps he should know before training heel. I guess it's things like Sit, stay, release, and pay attention when calling his name? Also, if the dog is really distracted to other dogs, but not when heeling, what if I ''release'' him from heel, is it a possibility he will be really distracted again by other dogs ? Great video btw, i'd just wish the phase 2 video was with the same dog to see his progress, but it's still the best heeling video on youtube :)

Really clear, effective instructions. My 6-year-old schnoodle was doing step 1 by the third arc and is already walking to and sitting at heel with the arc technique. The trainer helped me realize that I needed to slow down and train my dog step by step. I'd been trying to teach her to heel while walking, and it was confusing her and frustrating me. The tip about not using the leash for guiding or correcting was also very valuable. Thanks so much for sharing your techniques!

[@daniellemiller4599]

I know this was from a long time ago but I’m getting my gs puppy on the 29th April when he’s a 8 weeks and a few days, should I start this kind of training straight away or will he be a bit too young ?

[@genericname8727]

​@@daniellemiller4599 First let him get comfortable in the home. Teach commands like “sit”, “stay”, “leave it” because they’re good for safety. Train him to go to the toilet in the correct location, and basic stuff like that. That sort of thing is what I’ll suspect you’ll be focussing on immediately. The dog will be a puppy so will take longer to understand a lot of training than an older dog, will probably get bored or tired quicker, and could also become overwhelmed easier. So be patient, use positive reinforcement, and don’t put too much pressure on them. But yes, you can start with these simple commands and progress to more advanced stuff when you feel he’s got a hang of things. It’s okay if your dog takes a little longer to learn things too. I’m sure he’ll get there with patience and consistency from you. Plenty of tutorials online from others in your same position too.

I have been trying a different method of teaching heel to my 4 month old coonhound, and he did not get it at all. After doing this twice a day about 20 minutes for 3 days my boy is doing awesome!! He stays in position without me having to blatantly guide him now and I am so impressed!! I never thought teaching heel could be easy. Now we are working on heeling with distractions. Thank you!

[@illuminadia6023]

But I am having one consistent issue, he doesnt understand that when I am standing still and command him to heel, he must get into the heel position and when I command him to heel he will sit in front of me and wait for me to guide him with the treat. How do I get him to understand he needs to go into position and not wait for me to guide him into it?

[@vulptex3714]

I am a pretty good trainer; at least with all my past dogs, and others have asked me to help them with their dogs (Eskies, Rotties, Dobermans, German Shepherds, Pit Bulls, blue tick hound etc.) Even volunteer trained at a German Shepherd kennel with Shutzhund trained dogs. I've always had very high success training. My new puppy is a Yakutian Laika. She is the oldest puppy I've ever gotten. She was 12 weeks and 2 days when I flew from Seattle to Dallas and back in 1 day. I let her acclimate the first 2.5 days. Just teaching her her name, and to go outside to potty. Then started with little 5-10 min training sessions throughout the day. She is incredibly smart, she learned sit an a few minutes with ASL sign, and after day 1 she was bored, I added a verbal cue, a month in she's reliable indoors but not outdoors. She will do down, stand, off, most of the time leave it and drop it. Heel is a work in progress but she will do beautifully if you go at a very fast brisk walk. Come is also about 50/50. Forget any of it with distractions outdoors. She is a socialite and just wants to say hi to everyone and every dog. I just started using some German Commands too. She is learning the game of fetch quite well. Brings it right back about 80% now. However, I've never; in my entire life, seen a dog this stubborn, not even huskies. It's part of the breed, if they don't wanna they put the breaks on so you constantly are redirecting to get them to do as asked. My husband just won't use the right words, or hand signals, and that's incredibly frustrating because consistency is everything!. She is incredibly bonded to me in just 1 month and a week, follows me everywhere! Wakes from naps and follows me to next room etc. (more about that in a minute). I take her everywhere with me, she meets dogs on walks a lot, but her only real play sessions were with a 7yr old Mastiff, and a 3 yr old Doberman with his sibling a 2.5 yr old Rottweiler. I hate off leash parks, and people are poisoning dogs in our area at them or bringing in fight dogs to seriously mame the dogs and sometimes kill them. So with Covid it's been extremely hard finding puppy play time. FYI I use baked organic chicken breast and some baked organ meat cut up into small tidbits for her treats, she spit out everything else. She was under weight when I got her home and gained nearly a full pound in 2 days, clearly her litter mates were eating all the food. She isn't a gobbler, she's a grazer, eats a little, plays a little, eats a little more etc. In the 5 weeks I've had her she has doubled in size going from 9lbs4oz to 17.5lbs. Vet says she's incredibly healthy. She's losing teeth and adult ones are coming in. She is now almost 17.5 weeks old. My questions are: 1. I'm having a really hard time getting her to understand stay and her release she just sits there still, no matter what I try. I've never had issues before, but she's very spontaneous and refuses to "want to do it" so far. I've seen your videos as well as others, but those techniques haven't worked at all in a week of trying 8 mini sessions (10 min each) every day. Any other advice or tips would be helpful. 2. Constantly biting the leash, I've made it very very boring, not doing anything, turning my back, walking the other way.....still biting the leash. So ideas with that would be appreciated as well. 3. I know some dogs like to mouth, I know you can't change instinct from what they were bred to do. Her breed was bred to be sled dogs in -57F temps, herd reindeer, hunt, and be part of the Native Siberian Yakuts family and constant companion. I have her on a leash, I've begun harness training with a Wonder Walker front clip, she is fine wearing it until she tries to pull then she bites the front strap ( any tighter I couldn't get a finger under it) and the leash frantically, jumping and really freaking out. If she walks too far behind you she nips at your calves or shoes. She does pull a lot on leash, even after a 15-20 min game of fetch before her walk. Her biting has drawn blood twice on me, so I began "No Bite" and if she bites too hard I'll put a drop of apple cider vinegar in her mouth. That part is getting better, but she bites at her brush incessantly, I treat her when she isn't biting during a grooming/brushing session but it's non-stop. She lets me brush her teeth, wipe her ears, and wipe her pads off but will bite at the wipe sometimes. Any advice besides patience and time? 4. Potty training nightmare! When we brought her home she had bloody diarrhea for 4 days, she passed pine chip bedding she was eating at the breeders, breeder had her on very hard core worming meds as well. I've still never seen a 3 month old puppy walk into their crate and defecate and then lay down in it. We live on the 3rd floor of an apt with elevator access, so against my best wishes we are also using pee pads. Still she'll walk into her crate and poo or pee. I made the mistake of yelling NO! after the first week of her here and now she does not want to be in her crate at all. I have coaxed her with treats, I have given her Kongs full of nummies and chew toys, she has water also, but even if I'm sitting at the door, as soon as I close it, she's screaming bloody murder, biting at the wire, pawing at it, jumping around, and this does not stop, only escalates, at first I tried 5min. waited in between screeches to open door again, I've tried 5min -30min. It still gets louder and louder. She has only slept in her crate 5x now. I thought she had quit with the accidents in her crate until 2 days ago she went pee again and again 3x during one day in her crate. Any advice? I will take her out, she'll go both, I'll walk her etc. she'll go again. As soon as we walk in the door, she goes in the house again within 5 min. She does go to the door now to go out, but sometimes she refuses to go to the bathroom and will just sit there outside (on leash) no matter how much coaxing you do. After 30 min of this, back in the house and she'll pee or poo again. It's almost like she's marking her territory. Any and all help would be appreciated. Thank you.

If you could say there was a component of this video that was "money," for me it would be the demonstration of using the arc movement with treat in hand to bring your dog into position, and the recommendations for troubleshooting timing and position of the hand with the release of the treat. Over the course of many years and several dogs, I've read instructions on teaching a dog to heel that usually said to give the "Heel" command while pulling the dog in line with a leash. I was never successful. This looks like it works, and I'll be trying it with my new puppy. Thanks so much for posting this video!

[@roshaadlall291]

Great video! So informative. I've looked at all your stuff! Quick question: How long do you take before you change phases? Do you train one phase for days until they get it right?

I love your videos, they're very insightful. Dog training and caring has been a passion of mine since I was about 3, and when I got older I was finally able to have my own dog with my own control. It was worth the wait. Positive reinforcement and treats are great ways to build the dog's focus and desire to listen or be trained. Also, never taking "no" for an answer, dogs must learn to "get it" when told a command. A well trained dog is a happy dog. Don't know why I'm telling you this, you really know your stuff.

This video has helped me a lot! My Doberman pup is 11 weeks and knows up to the 2nd step with just 1hour of training! I like the command heel to mean that your dog follows behind or by your side but not pressed against you, which this video does, another reason for this is my pup likes to walk randomly in front of me tripping me up so this will hopefully stop that bad habit and get him to walk next to me in stead! Thanks for the great video this has been a great help! 🐾🐶

[@skiscaraudio]

Cripes a lot of trolls on here...I followed this video with my english bulldog starting at 10 weeks...he is 16 weeks now and no treats are needed...he plops his but right down at every corner too....Well done and thanks

[@skiscaraudio]

+skiscaraudio no treats anymore i meant...just sometimes for a surprise

[@pennyjenkins5082]

+skiscaraudio how did you wean him off the treats please ? :)

[@skiscaraudio]

+Penny Jenkins I just gave less and less...till none...I do treat out of the blue to keep his interest

[@azraprinceza]

Wow that’s amazing! Mine is 6 months he’s learning heel right now and he’s doing good! He just graduated yesterday from beginner class and is taking intermediate classes now ♥️

[@audreyintheuniverse6592]

Haha, I've been training a toy poodle and i had to break my back to give him the treat in heel!

[@melomimi]

AudreyInTheUniverse i have a toy poodle + maltese, hes pretty calm and listens to me when i ask him to come and sit what did you do to train yours? Like do you have some tips?

[@rememberingabandonedmidwes3840]

Im watching this to teach my dog as best as i can. Shes ten months and is an amazing learner.

[@ramonmarte4495]

you will have a quick, blessed dog once you watch her training

[@rileyjothecorso9732]

Definitely one of the best dog training videos if not the best simple and easy straight to the point thank you mam ☺️

[@everettwhite9874]

Ah, there's the confusion as I see it now. People here have different goals to teach their dogs to heel. Some people commenting have experience with military/police, or competition training and there is the novice, just a simple pet owner who only wants learn the basics. If my little puppy stays in the yard and doesn't bolt out into the street when called I'm gonna call that a successful heel. If I'm able to respond to commands reasonably well as many of these experts suggest I'll be happier. For now I'm gonna take it one heel at a time. 😀🐺👣 Thanks for a Great video. ❤️💯

[@TheeWarriorPrincess]

You are the best dog trainer ❤ better than all the guys on YT who can’t do what you do ❤ I like when you call her a Good Girl it forms a real relationship! Some trainers are too mean too bossy too rough with the dogs no wonder the dogs get messed up! You are sweet and kind to the dog so keep that up ❤

[@Kirtleyannsorensen]

hey this totally worked for my dog! Best vid I have seen about it!

[@Maleengen]

Ok ty very much, my staff learn in 5 min, already does it well outdoor and it s very useful because she is nearly never on leash, and for car , this command is gold

[@MaineAviationCessna]

Love the Jersey/NY accent. "Dawg"

Best, simple and most straightforward video out there... 🇬🇧

[@KIllSmxke]

My Rottweiler learned this in like 9 minutes. I’m surprised 😳

[@anshmishra7476]

And my Doberman too .....damn she is just 4months old...

[@haileyculver]

@@anshmishra7476 i have a 4 month doberman atm and he’s pretty stubborn lmao learns quickly but only when he wants too

[@Tirryna]

This will help me immensely! My dog has shown to be a natural seizure alert dog...so, it's service dog training time! Thank God she is a GSD.

[@heatherc8523]

first, oh my god gypsy is so cute! and great video! Really appreciate it with my new puppy.

[@hbutter1306]

This very helpful!! My six month old has come, sit, lay down and stay but I've neglected to work on heel and realized I definitely need it when out in public !!

[@schumache101]

At what age is it appropriate to start training a puppy? I'm getting a German shepherd next month

[@leocarvente1925]

since the first day you get it

[@hannahlapan2947]

How many months? A friend of mine just gave me 2 wks old coz they can’t sustain 12 puppies. Their mom passed away too 😢

[@RonanTOC]

Would love to see this dog now showing incredible potential

[@ryandunbar1314]

My 3 boxer are so food motivated they will sit for a booger sized piece of cheese. I can't wait to try these methods. My biggest issue is the jumping on people! Friendly to a fault. I'm sure we are to blame as we let them jump on & kiss us. Great vid 👍🏻 subbed

[@majesticwolf5653]

A lot of bad behaviors can be a positive behavior. U can teach them to only jump up when told. It would be a pretty cool trick.

[@desolatesoul2304]

So true too! That's a good thing though. They are easily more adamant to pleasing the owner. Attentiveness and food is what makes a good dog. Some dogs are not even attentive so it makes training hell.

[@ttlove01_ruka88]

To fix jumping you can give him/her a nudge with your knee as he is on you and then gently push him off may take awhile or may need to be a little rough with them since they are a bigger dog

[@joshuafurlong5270]

ive owned 2 dogs in my whole life. my buddy jack whos been with us since i was about 5 or 6 (now 18 going on 19) i was too young to have much impact in training jack and my parents didnt have much time, my siblings tried their best but never got him to learn anything aside from sit. and he needs a treat to do it for you. but hes an old man so i dont mind it much anymore and just let him do as he pleases. but ranger is a rottweiler beagle mix we wound up taking in when her old home wasnt suitable. she got to us at about 2 months old now 3 maybe 4 (we arent sure on her exact age) but im really enjoying training her. its super rewarder for both her and I when she learns something new.

[@calidazze8283]

This was Helpful. Thank you.

[@snowsnow2372]

Best tutorials on youtube , great job really breaking it down and great methods . My pitbull terrier takes to ur methods very quick. Thanks

[@Joss-Lyn]

What type of dog?

[@megnkev]

This video was awesome!! Started yesterday and it’s going great!

[@VishalSharma-ye8qz]

What food u give to your dogs while training??

[@k9-1]

In all the videos we are using the reward treats located at www.dogtrainerfood.com They are the heathiest and easiest to break up and use. All the dogs also like them.

[@VishalSharma-ye8qz]

Can i use pedigree for my dog while training??

[@beautypop2870]

Vishal Sharma Pedigree is very unhealthy for dogs. Try using something a little healthier. Maybe Google so healthy alternative. You could also look in your local RSPCA they always have healthy treats snacks and food...

[@Prototype_Malice]

Healthy treats where meat is the primary ingredient is a good idea. For high-value treats, used when teaching a new trick or behavior, especially if it's difficult, I suggest cooked chicken with little to no spice on it, pieces of steak/pork chop/etc. or small pieces of unspiced cheese. For daily use, go to a nearby pet store and find treats that contain no grain or only a little - the best treats are mostly meat and no corn or grain. Essentially, anything but Pupperoni.

[@funnypetviewingtheworld8654]

I got ahead with my dog's training after reading Found out how to stop my dog from jumping on people. Learned that you quick turn your back on the dog when they jump and leave the room through the door. When dog finally stops jumping you give him a treat.
