I really hope we get to see some follow up to these two. I have two Pyrenees mixes (both well over 100 lbs) and they are nearly impossible to walk together. Both are "in front" walkers. The older female (2-1/2) is the most stubborn dog I've ever met. The male (1-1/2) does pretty good by himself and I can let him off leash once I get away from the busy streets. Also, I'd like some advice for a spouse or significant other that doesn't have the same tenacity or outlook that is needed to fix the dog issues. That would probably make for an interesting video.

So in awe.. I used to do a sort of "flipping" with horses. We would buy from want ads or auction, train, compete then resell at Gaming/gymkhana circuit events. I learned alot of similarities between horse learning curve and dogs. Horses are flighty and thus a good grip on trust and respect is vital. Dogs are so willing to please and quick to pick up on consistent direction. I was doing this in the early 80s and you sir are the only Dog trainer that makes so much sense to me. I love how you use dogs to assist in a way a human simply can't. Prince is awesome as was Bosco... poetry in motion those two! Just like horses we have to learn to speak/communicate in a way they understand and be amazed at how the respond. Thank you for these amazing videos.

Hello Joel, I'm so happy (and relieved) to find you have videos on how to handle a powerful dog!! I definitely must develop a tougher attitude with my rescue puppy (who I thought was a white Labrador but turns out to be a Pyrenees/Pitbull/American Bull Dog) mix! She is a sweet nine month old girl but VERY headstrong and physically powerful. While driving through the neighborhood yesterday she saw a couple of dogs running around in their front yard and she launched herself OUT OF THE BACK WINDOW of the car while it was moving!!!! Fortunately, she was not injured. I don't know how she managed it because the window was halfway up!! I've since purchased a very sturdy harness and an extention (2 feet) that clips into the seat belt buckle and the harness. I've owned big, strong dogs in my life (German Shepherd, Airedale, Labrador and a Chow) but I've never (ever) experienced anything like Stevie. I can't tell you how much I appreciate your videos - they are a tremendous help. I love your no- nonsense approach. Thank you.

I have three daughters, and when the topic arises the first question is when is the dog going for training. I have found in your channel a guide, and I love that you repeat the exercises with different breeds, different levels of reactivity, and beyond being boring or tedious, I find it reaffirming and instructive. I was not able to walk my dog without almost ripping my arm when he sees another dog, but I bought a gentle leader (by the way they should pay you) and with the guide of your videos, now the walk is better for both. I just want my dog to be a dog, not to do tricks or anything, he is so smart and lovely, he is in the house all day and is like a gentle big bear, loved by everyone. He behaves and thanks to your advice, we are a happy family. Thanks again, keep up the good work!

Have you done them one at a time first? I've done a No Bark or the walk is over - your choice. The very first time you say it and they bark though, you have to follow through. Too bad, you blew it, walk's over. The next walk, all you have to do is say No Bark or the walk is over. You can actually see their brains thinking about it. Do I really want to go home or do I want to keep walking with Mom? Have also used, No Bark, that's his job - he's guarding his yard. You'd do the same thing if that was your yard - for those dogs barking in their own yard. My guys will whimper and we continue on our walk. Joel sometimes does a let's just get through it and sometimes does 180 degree turns until the dog is on your page.

Fantastic content as usual! I would really love to see how you train a dog to accept being handled by strangers, my rottie is great with getting handled by people he knows, but he does not like being handled at the vet or by strangers, and since I want to have him as a working dog within the military he needs to be able to accept being handled by strangers according to him, would be wonderful to see your approach to that kind of problem :)

Oh how I love them American bulldogs. I had two and they are so good with kids, my grandkids. Now I have a cane Corso “TITAN” male and he is very different but good so for with kids (2&3 yr olds) he is 4 months and work on him everyday teaching new and obedience stuff. Keep up the good work

Joel... -Thanks!.. -Youre a Master-explainer of dog behavior! I watch ALL your lessons, even if i dont have the issue with my dog; i always learn something new from you! Keep it up! Lots of Love and Respect! //Chris from Sweden

As always! Great work!

This video is great, you DO have to be hardcore with dogs like this. I have a bulldog mix, a pit bull and a cattle dog/Aussie mix, three challenging dogs. If I was soft with them I would have no control when necessary. Great video, Joel, I wish I had seen this eight years ago when I put my little pack together😂

I feel the same with my two. They're sisters and Kelpie / Red Heeler mix.

Thanks for sharing this video. I found it really helpful as I have a Doberman and a Rottweiler around the same age and they are a handful!! 👍❤️

[@shannon2228]

I love your videos! Everytime I watch them I learned something new and this time a whole lot of new LOL thank you thank you thank you

They are just like my 2- 95 lb, brother/sister English Labs. My female is so jealous whenever my male is given any attention. My male barks and lunges at every dog. He gets my female excited. I wish I could take them to you. This is, by far, my favorite video you've put out. Thanks, Joel!

[@robinrutherfordcost4748]

Have you tried walking them separately first? Am guessing the male isn't neutered, right? For the jealousy, try not to use people names or dog names as it can create jealousy. Good things happen when they're together. You can also try a look away command. I've tried a No Bark or the walk is over - your choice. The very first time you say it, you have to follow through though, so they know you're serious; otherwise they know you're just crying wolf. The next walk when you say No Bark or the walk is over - your choice, you can actually see their brains thinking about it. Do I want to go home or do I want to keep walking with Mom? Hope that helps. I have two 100lb Dobes that aren't fat and can walk them using 2 fingers, especially from Joel's videos.

Thank you for this video I took my one year old out by herself and she still exhausted all my energy reacting to a dog that got loose

[@calvinchung3419]

Recently tried your sit down method and I gotta say it works. I had to do it like 4 times and I saw immediate improvement in behavior.

[@daniellehall6780]

They are absolutely adorable

[@Soulmates_DIY]

Thank you for another great video, I shared it with my husband to help with our 2 100lb dogs.

[@sallyfurness9496]

These dogs are huge! Beautiful though 😍

[@barbaraking2376]

Please show more on the progress of these two dogs, and thankyou for saying the gentle method does not always work.
