What a great dog & Smart & beautiful trainer

[@legendsdogtraining]

You are very kind, thank you. French Mastiffs have a special place in my heart, they have amazing personalities.

Wow great job with the video. Seeing it in reverse was a great idea and was honestly the most helpful video on KZbin I have seen for this type of training step by step. Thank you for making this video. Excited to use your tips with our 10 week old english mastiff named Zoey

[@legendsdogtraining]

Nicole Creekmore Thank you, Nicole. Appreciate the feedback. If you have any training or behavior questions with Zoey, I offer skype consults, as well as, free youtube videos and a training blog on my website. www.legendsdogtraining.com/ Thanks again! - Alyssa

[@nicolecreekmore1550]

Thank you so much for the additional info. We will definitely take advantage of it. Our goal is to have a very well behaved gentle giant♡

[@schoesteriris]

Randomly scrolling through youtubes bordeaux doggies and suddenly is see my dog Jane as picture!! This is awsome haha

[@randomskylar5576]

The French mastiff is a very friendly dog it is very good with members that they know we got ours in only when they were a few months old and they are the best dogs you can imagine they are great.guard dogs and they are still love bugs

[@DebtgGraciouslyPaid]

Hi! Thank you so much for sharing this, we are homing a 9 month old aggressive DDB aggression is towards humans in that he's quite snappy!

[@Parhikunii]

I have... Well, recently adopted one of those at age of 3, she's really noble, but can't control where she leads when we go outside so I need to hold very strong because she's VERY, very strong. I don't know if I can control that behavior at his age, she's not an aggressive dog and I love her.

[@LETTOISBACK]

Good job shaping on the lay command

[@legendsdogtraining]

+LuckieThePit Thank you for watching! :-)

[@luongminh0707]

wow, amazing I would like to do it with my little girl Lola , a Boxer , 7 months old. She used to be trained twice a week in a club, she makes some progress but not so far as your Bleu. Many thanks for your sharing

[@legendsdogtraining]

Luong-Minh Nguyen-Khac thanks for watching! let me know if you have any additional questions about training or behavior.

[@AryanChaurasia10]

Thank you for teaching me how to train.. Nice video

[@arbaazkhan5868]

Very well behaved dog and a beautiful dog trainer. One question is this dog still alive? . I came to know that these breed has very short lifespan

[@legendsdogtraining]

Thank you. This dog belonged to a former client, but it's been years since I've been in contact with them. I'm not sure how she's doing today but I do think about her all the time. She was a lot of fun to train with, so sweet and intelligent. Thank you for watching and writing in, it's appreciated. Best, Alyssa Rose

[@terrystahl962]

Ya I've been told 6 to 8 yrs. I thought 10 to q2 for a rottie was short. Imagine only 6 yrs?? So sad

[@bananankaa]

very smart dog type !

[@orrzahavi1781]

very good!! really nice work.

[@DeanPMA]

very good work, I have a DDB

[@GazDaGooner]

Great video. Wish I had seen this years ago. How did you get Bleu to lay on the place while chewing the ball. My dog just runs all over when I give a ball

[@legendsdogtraining]

Apologies for the slow response. I worked on Mat Work before introducing toys into the training. The training mat had a lot of value due to previous training. I also think about the "antecedent arrangement" which is a fancy way of saying that I intentionally set up the environment in a way that makes the behavior more likely to occur. When teaching a dog to bring a toy back you can use a narrow corridor (like the patio in my video) or a hallway. training mat in a shady space on a hot day are good ways to make sure that the environment supports your training goals. I've also used hallways in the same way. Another example of antecedent arrangement is placing the training mat in the shade on a hot day. If you ever need more support or guidance in training you can always train with me through my online classes.

Very helpful vidio . But why the clicking noise ? and where could I get one please ? I have a nearly 4 month old pup purchases one week ago , and her previous owner has done an excellent job on her toilet training . I have 2 shih tzu who are slowly accepting her . What is the reward treat you use please .

[@legendsdogtraining]

Nathan Douglas Hey Nathan! Thanks for watching and commenting on my video. The clicking noise is called a clicker. It is used to mark the moment a dog offers desired behavior and predicts high value reinforcement . There should be a 1:1 ration, one click to one reward. My training plans revolve around calming exercises, so I prefer to use a soft clicker (one that makes a softer sound) like Karen Pryor's "iclick" that are more conducive to relaxation. For training food I use Happy Howie rolls (beef recipe recommended) or Red Barn rolls (beef recipe recommended). The Happy Howie rolls are great for dogs on a grain free diet, but the Red Barn rolls are easier to purchase online. Thanks again for commenting. - Alyssa Lapinel, CPDT-KA

I am a really! Very big dog lover and puppy lover forever and ever ❤️❣️💌💟💝💖💗💓🩷💜💚🧡💛🩵💙💕💞🐕🦴 I have been a really! Very big dog lover and puppy lover Since I was 5 years old

[@DebtgGraciouslyPaid]

**would this type of training work with him? I'm interested to try the clicker? Any advice would be appreciated!

[@legendsdogtraining]

Hi Teresa! In what type of situations does your dog become snappy? Best advice for training is to start with simple obedience exercises that your dog will quickly pick up, and slowly/progressively build to more challenging situations. When used correctly, clickers are very useful at building focus and impulse control.

Nick Carter and his family have a female Dogue De Bordeaux named Honey Bunny 😃

Странно, что по команде "рядом" собака ходит справа, а не слева. Хоть это и не служебная порода, но, тем не менее, удобно когда правая рука свободна. Хотя, может в разных странах разные требования к обучению.

[@francinewerda4638]

My boyfriend and I (well I was on vacation when he got her) just got a 6month old female French Mastiff....she never had a name, collar, leash, fixed or potty trained. She is afraid of EVERYTHING. I leash her and she shuts down. I think I need help with this one! So hard to train! Any suggestions? Help please! I want her to be healthy and happy and trained. She is not happy with me right now. I believe in reward not force and she is just so bullheaded!! Plus...6MONTHS OLD WITH NOTHING TO GET HER STARTED!!!! I am so sad for her for that reason but I think she can be fine if she gets training!

[@legendsdogtraining]

Francine Werda Hi Francine! Thanks for watching and commenting. With fearful dogs it’s very important that you build trust from the bottom up. I would get her on a healthy feeding schedule and then begin using meals to establish a stronger connection. Some dogs are too afraid to take food from a persons hand in which case I would be placing the food in the ground or “rolling grounders” (basically finding a means of connecting during meal time). Do you have a yard? Or does she need to go for walks? If you’re interested , we can set up a consultation by video call. Go to www.legendsdogtraining.com and fill out an assessment form. Thanks again for watching and commenting! Best, Alyssa Rose

[@irynasmile]

Hi. We have a french mastiff. She is 8 mnths old. She is super in the house but not ok with other dogs and people ourside. Went for training-waist of money. What should i do?

[@legendsdogtraining]

damian fan I just saw your post. Would you be interested in a behavior consultation? Not sure where you live, but I offer skype consults. You can go to www.legendsdogtraining.com - fill out a behavior assessment form for your mastiff and I'll call or email to set up an appointment.

[@irynasmile]

How much is it cost?

[@legendsdogtraining]

damian fan It's one hour in length (usually closer to an hour and a half if there is any history of aggression). We would discuss behavior patterns, day to day routine, and training goals. Within 48 hours of consult I would send you a write up outlining a training plan with recommendations for how to manage the behavior during the preliminary stages of training. Cost is 90 dollars.

[@thedeenz]

Alyssa Lapinel 90 bucks for 48 hours of consultation? Damn, that's inexpensive.

[@legendsdogtraining]

De enz that would be a thorough and inexpensive. the consult is an hour, sometimes a little over. I would send you a write up within 48 hours of the consult.
