How to build confidence and trust with ANY DOG 🔹 Rottweiler Training

[@rh3toricalanswer]

Larry - I started watching your videos when I got my first dog a year and a half ago, a nine year old Malinois. My dog inspired me and ignited my passion for dog training and led me to enroll in an apprenticeship to become a professional dog trainer. I used to watch yours and other trainers' videos before I started being a trainer. One of the first things my mentors told me is that online/video trainers don't show a lot of what goes into dog training and are generally not good trainers because "if you have time to make and edit videos you're not busy enough as a trainer, and there is more to dog training than what can be shown in a video." I still have a lot to learn, but a year later, knowing more than I did before, I went back and watched some of the trainers I used to watch to see everything they do with more knowledgeable eyes - sure enough, some of them turned out to be ineffective trainers with questionable methods, making things up about "what the dog is thinking" and working with dogs that are actually fairly low on the aggression scale and billing them as "extreme cases." However, you have been the only trainer whose videos I still watch, because your content isn't designed to push a paid online course, you don't make cuts to hide things in your videos, you show what you're doing, use new dogs instead of already finished dogs, and you focus on behavior as primary over obedience and emphasize the importance of relationship, and you don't bullshit. While there are some things I would do differently in this video based on what I've learned (time savers like flipping the place board over and having the dog walk over it and sit on it and reward a lot before flipping it back upright, which we've found to work quickly and effectively) you are an honest trainer, your methods work, and nothing you've done can be characterized as "wrong." Thank you for being a valuable source for dog owners and trainers. It's easy for someone to look like they know what they're doing and make a quick buck selling online courses when their target audience are people who don't know what they're looking at, but that's not you. You're a good dude who clearly works from the heart and there are a lot of things I learned from you, and I will continue to follow you.

Notice how the Rotty's energy changed with the happy praise tone in Larry's voice.

Love the way you train Larry and watch all your videos 😁🐾🐾

[@Shellnbaby]

The loving way you train is beautiful to me. I've followed some of your advice of playing and celebrating in the middle of a walk with my dog and it's already made a difference in our relationship. Thank you so much!

[@solideomusical]

Never have I seen a trainer show such sweet affection towards the dog of a stranger.

[@yilswizz]

I feel the love between you and the dogsoul . You open the eyes from dogowner great scoollessons thank you

[@markremmers7990]

I love how you first and foremost become buddies, I don't always have that option with my private in home/at location clients. But this is how I approach all the dogs I work with.. Most of those are rescues with all kinds of issues. Beautiful to watch. So many dog trainers only show the serious stuff.

[@JohnJohn-dl2ht]

Rottweiler dogs are the best. Larry is a great trainer

[@RoseTheOver70MakeupArtist]

You have an incredible God given Talent thank you so much for helping people like myself who cannot afford a trainer I just watch all of your videos and I'm 70 and it's very very hard on me but I've been trying to train my dog he's a little crazy well a lot of crazy LOL but we train out of love more dog training should be like you thank you for helping us all

[@kitoffour5783]

Rose Hendricks ur 70 and u use the expression lol BEST 70yr ever

[@abby-fichtner]

This seriously brought tears to my eyes. Love this so much

[@annagresta3840]

We have 2 rotties now, have had a total of 4 in the last 20 years. They are beautiful. Ours are food motivated, so training was easy with treats!

[@jodyrussy9483]

I have a one year old Rottweiler Brooklyn she is one of the smartest dogs I have ever had. Thank god we have beautiful people like you. Thank you from all the Rottweiler s

[@adelenewee]

Every time Deathrow does something well I automatically say out loud, “Good boy!!” as if I’m training him as well 🤣. Love love love Rotties. Thanks for the vid!

[@alwaysfaithfulK9]

I'm watching some of your older videos looking for some key things on building confidence in fearful dogs, specifically with your more "scary dogs". I'm working with a pitbull right now who is absolutely scared of everything. Even going out or inside a different way. He is with me for dog aggression(one time issue) environmental factors for sure played a part. I've had countless trainers tell me I shouldn't get down to their level with a dog like this as they will be more inclined to come after me. I see you do it all the time, so now I question which way is the better way.

[@mikepatterson4202]

Of all the videos you created that I've watched, I think this one is the most important I've seen. It seems that once that trust is developed, then you can teach your dog the skills they need to be good citizens in their community. Thanks

[@lstevens1512]

YES!!!! YOU ARE SO RIGHT ON THE MARK!!! I took my German Shepherd to a local agility training center that uses positive training such as this. It's the same method. Other dogs did the same thing as this one did. Mine was hesitant at first as well but caught on real quick. Some other dogs went thru the same thing you showed by louring the dog away before retrying. I sat up a plat form in my yard and did my Rottie the same way about 9 years ago. She did the same thing as this one. Getting the dogs to think for themselves builds confidence, trust and obedience. It forms a stronger bond. It makes further training easier. For your viewers, THIS STUFF WORKS BEST!!! The dog touching his leg and instant reward this is a big key in learning with instant positive reward. Body blocking in the beginning is another big yes with a reward and praise, Getting down low can play a big roll as well like he did with the golf cart. Jackpot treats was perfect every time. Praising the dog at the right time. Show love and affection like you did after each lesson... Outstanding!!! LOVE THE VIDEO!!! I think this dog just lost it's original owner. I can see this dog is going to be hard to give back. The hard part of this training is probably training the owner. :).

[@Jennchilada199]

i love how he's so passionate about the breed. I personally do not care for their looks, but I love dogs and love his appreciation for them! Larry is starting to grow on me!

[@BuddhatheRockstar]

This was so simple and so awesome to watch.

[@lauradorado1208]

He is such a handsome dog, I agree with you about this breed❤️

[@robinrotman]

THIS IS WHAT DOG TRAINING IS ABOUT! Encouragement and positivity!

[@bernadettetibazi7893]

I love the way you have such a relaxed attitude, you engender cooperation and team work so well!!

[@coachrr]

Hey Larry, Totally agree with you about the Rottweiler breed! Met my first one 50 years ago, when I was 5 years old; there were only 200 registered in the U.S.! They are awesome. Glad to see a lot of people are becoming aware of e collar training. Hard to believe so many people thinks prongs and e collars are abusive, but they are so much better than the old yank and crank on a choke chain! I've had dogs all my life, and I currently have a rescued Husky. I have only used a prong collar and e collar. She is a sweet dog and great with other dogs and people. Keep up the great work!

[@redschafer7804]

coachrr theres nothing wrong with a choke chain either my parents had a bull mastiff that was ruined by a so called humane e-collar you will not catch me using one ever . my last dog was a boxer/Rottweiler/pit bull mix and she also responded very well to a choke chain but due to her hyper nature i changed a show leash it was so easy to put on to get her out the door for walks

[@denisemitchell8477]

+Red Schafer agree had to use a choke collar on my Bill mastiff /rottie needed the largest size with 4 extra links

[@beanthng]

I’ve owned and loved rotties since I got my first female at age 12. For the past 25 yrs or more I’ve been specific to the males. I adore this breed. They are so smart and loving and eager to please it’s crazy. I raised my 3 kids with them and now my 6 grandkids. I have a young male named Roman, 11 months old and I’ve just introduced the e-collar. Best breed on the planet

[@suzieb841]

Man I gotta say you're an awesome trainer

[@halliburton6262]

Just wanted to say thanks for your videos man!!! Never owned a dog before and someone I knew had a puppy Rottweiler.. named Sadie The dog was a bad fit for there house and family... I was lucky enough to get her she is super smart your videos I found right away this was two months ago... I have been watching more and working with her!! She is amazing you have given the both of us something amazing.. The simple things are the most important I did all you said and everything is going so well Thanks SO MUCH

[@CaitGB]

This is awesome! Reminds me a lot about how I train horses... It's all about getting them to choose the right answer! Thanks so much for this!!

[@lisagrawunder1088]

[@doctorj7112]

“Even his balls 🏀 are cool” lol that took me out! Great video

[@mayaportland8805]

best trainer ever. you have my respect!

[@toshodaneski1554]

I get so confused with watching all these kind of different trainers and training stuff videos online, especially as an owner of small scent-hound mix which sniffs like terminator and I try so hard to get his attention to the point where I burned out, but the thing is - I like training in general and I wanna learn as much as possible how training works. This one is pure gold. That lovely moments like when the dog gets into place all by himself and the joy that Larry shares with him. Amazing understanding of the dog.

[@chrystalhutchins3831]

I loved seeing you work with this dog! You are amazing!😊

[@levon1063]

Love Larrys methods. Had a lot of good dogs that I could have enjoyed to the fullest had I followed his program .

[@MrTokstew]

You won him over with the Public Enemy reference. I miss my Rottweiler. I agree its the best breed

[@chrisw4215]

really like your attitude

[@paulblaser4146]

Great video and a beautiful dog!

[@caoais8367]

I was cracking up (mostly from the cool balls comment) and smiling from hearing the way you talk to him. same way I talk to mine, nothing but love there.

[@kumate45]

Great Video. It is easier to get what you have thus Far with a low energy dog like he is

[@livingadamman7994]

thanks Larry nice dog and great training attitude

[@sandymirabitur3055]

I am loving these videos! We have a Rottie that is 5 months old and I am in need of training before we head to our lake house in the summer. ( No fences) THANK YOU SO MUCH! I also just ordered the training collar you recommended. I will continue to watch these so I can train my dog properly.

[@sandymirabitur3055]

Welcome! Where can if find the video of this rottie after training? Thank you again!

[@MrGaxar]

Excellent video for me as someone just starting out with a new rotty

[@tash2166]

Beautiful video... I agree his balls are even cool... Coolest part.... Watching the dog respect you!!!

[@arestheeurodobie9207]

You are crazy about Rottweilers 🤣😍 I love it love how you get so excited over him achieving this simple but (scarry for Deathrow) task . Awsome job engage the mind, and move the body , that's what training is all about !!!! Love it Larry awsome

[@MrGrifter123]

Deathrow what a brotha know lmao

[@DrinkmoWater.]

Passion in your videos .. God bless. I WANT THAT DOG THO.. haha "even his balls are cool" .. I'm sold

[@DespairShadows]

i AGREE with you , that you said about walk next to you naturally cause the trust. I have alot of dogs who lived outside some of them lived in the street and after 2 days they walked next to me with lease like i have trained them for 3 years. BUT i think thats happens cause. 1. the dogs who have already lived outside in the street they have seen everything they have smell and socialised with everything so you are something special for them and they want to be with you. This is a big difference from your dog which you have him from his first months and its stays most of the time inside the house so when its time to go outside he wants to go out and have fun and dont care about you, also maybe you havenot socialise well and some smells or sights are so interest for the dog so you need to train the dog to pay attention toy you, cause thats the key, attention and trust.

[@jdhsingi]

Very nice smooth training. Thanks for sharing.

This trainer is Awesome, as is the breed, just beautiful dogs, very versatile, lots of love to give...go out and buy a Rottweiler!

[@Pixiewolf]

Deborah Nitschke I know this was a long time ago but... yes! I agree! The trainer is amazing and Rottweilers are beautiful and sweet beings. I also wanted to add to your comment for everyone out there(though many know this): please, please do your research before you get a dog! Not just adorable big rotties, but ANY dog. Big/large, medium, small, and teacup( especially! ). DO NOT RUSH THROUGH THIS!

Awesome work! Would love to see a video on how to help an overly excited, strong hyper dog learn to play politely. My dog is sweet and smart and loves other dogs but she has a crazy amount of over excited energy when she sees or plays with other dogs. She charges, jumps all over them, etc. help!!

Rotties are my favorites! When mine were puppies I' d place a paw on the scary object to show them it couldn't hurt them....done gently Rottweilers are so wonderful...smart, and brave. It seems strange to me that this one (Jethro or Death Row???) has so many "fears". I wonder what the cause could be.

[@ROBDee-ho9lu]

The cause is the owner.

[@gailgreenberg6953]

I had a rottweiller for 10 years, he passed on. My rottie was a real gentle giant and easy to train. I rescued, a Saint Bernard and it has been easy to train him to walk and sit, but he drags me when he sees another dog. I just found your channel and I am considering the ecollar. I noticed you have an obsession with balls. 😂

Lovely dog. Who would call their Rottie Deathrow? He's more of a Jethro! :-)

[@lstevens1512]

I agree, body language can speak louder than words. Think about it... Dogs are wolves descendant. They can't rely on barking while getting into position to pounce on there game. It scares the game away. This goes for wild dogs, lion's, and so on. They watch for signals from the pack leader. I have a 11 year German Shepherd. Loosing her hearing. We use hand and body signals. Simply turning my head a certain way triggers a command. Eye movement to look at something. Looks and acts like my Rottie. Red collar and all, except mines a she. She now has bone cancer. Going to have to put her down here soon before it gets too bad. I can't let her suffer. Wonderful dog to have.

[@WendiwooJarmy]

[@kathleenryser1692]

You are wise not to jump into correction based training with a male Rott . smart man .

[@DaStrangeWeasel]

So basically, be very patient and reward the smallest bits of progress. Don't use force. Use simple, direct body language to get them to do what you want.

Hey, just wanted to ask if you have any tips as my dog doesnt get on with other dogs i think its more scared than aggression as there was one (but only one) dog he used to get on with.

Show or working line ?
