Reactive Aussie//Owner training (part 3 of 3)

[@dominicpascal5512]

Love to see an owner that takes responsibility in their dog's behaviour and tries everything to help him improve. This woman is amazing in implementing things, I'm sure things are better by now.

[@Calliber50]

She's done an amazing job with what she has. He's very much eager to please her. There's just something going on that's atypical. That's the unpredictable nature of dogs. There's always that one that is the exception to the rule. The one that just out of nowhere does something completely unpredictable. When she says she'll exercise this animal for hours and it still will be a complete nervous wreck, I believe her. This dog would probably die of a heart attack before just calming down and relaxing. Anyone judging her needs to experience a dog like this in person. It's like going through life only meeting happy healthy humans and then suddenly you're meeting a human who's just left the insane asylum who doesn't operate like anyone you've ever met before. Sure you get him to put on some pants and eat a cheeseburger, but you give him a pair of shoes and he starts hitting himself and you with the shoes! Like WTF are you doing?!!? The shoes go on your feet Bro!

[@highpsi11]

These shepherds are intelligent, super-active, working dogs, with nothing to do. It makes sense that he can't settle down, is constantly treating others like they're the wolves who have come to attack his flock, which he must protect at all times. Getting him exhausted is probably difficult, since his people aren't distance runners, but he really needs to get very tired every day and to have a job. He seems like a hyper-vigilant, under-employed, intelligent, protective dog.

[@charlie3134]

I may have missed something. Did they get a working dog breed because they have a need for his work or are into agility training? Or was he a rescue they thought needed them? If not for either of those reasons then a mutt from a shelter or rescue group makes more sense.

[@borg_wow]

Yup. Working dogs like this dont "get tired after a mile" like she says. That's an excuse for sure. As a Husky/Cattledog mix owner, our dog needs an hour of park play time sprinting in the morning and probably 3-4 miles in the evening to be satisfied and happy. No way this dog only needs a mile.

[@me5768]

These dogs are awesome. I’ve had several over my life time but I lived in the country at the time. I used them to help herd cattle and patrol the property. They definitely need a job and they will behave just fine with proper training this dog remarkably improved. I think it will be OK.

[@matthewgoetter3127]

I couldn’t agree more. Dogs need a job. If your life is boring l, get a boring dog or don’t have a pet. If you need a working dog give it a job and the life it needs.

[@pheniks0]

i have a husky, also a working dog, but not working he's nothing like this this dog has a mental issue

[@kamaswe3763]

The first thing comes to my mind is that these aussie needs a task, the way he moves and approaches Prince, is literally like he is alert on keeping sheep in order, I think his shepherd’s nature is really taking over. His simply programmed for a specific job and can’t rest without it.

[@mollie.howe33]

This owner is doing fabulously!! What a relief it must be for her to be getting these kinds of results on leash.

[@sportysbusiness]

Totally agree. It's brilliant to see her so competent and also to realise that she was doing so much right yet still had issues because of some little things that made such a big difference with this dog. The breakdown of these issues was awesome.

[@robin212212]

i agree; most owners are afraid to put too much pressure on their dogs; you need to tell the dog what you want, else the dog will be just guessing all the time or making their own decisions.

[@jillsorbera7247]

@@carrielea6009, if it helps, the pop is to the side, down legs bent, and the pop is quick-it is not pulling. It gets them out of what they are focusing on, it startles them, and they start paying attention to you. Quick side POP.

[@Rudelherz]

This is a WORKING dog, without a job. Since we got two kittens our GSD Mix has become fantastic. 😂 He has a calling now, at least so he thinks. This Aussie needs work, loose weight and disciple. THEN they will be great family dogs as well. Never seen an Aussie being this difficult. Great vids and teaching here, as always. Thank you!

[@truevegas]

Really great series. Was good to watch the owners progress as well. Maybe people without sheep who are thinking about buying an Aussie Shepherd will think twice after watching this. The "most Aussie Shepards I've seen are neurotic messes" is correct. They belong on farms, herding sheep. Most that are "pets" will be frustrated for sure. Don't do that to a dog peeps! But anyway. Great series. Loved it ♥️

[@riccapoo]

I love aussies so much. I see the herding/protection anxiety. In my experience they are high strung. Their brains are always working and your advice was so spot on about keeping them guessing. I think one of the easiest things to teach an aussie is "recall" because their main objective is to be glued to their person. Getting them to slow down their brain will never happen, hence the constant vocal whine. Neurosis is definitely an accurate diagnosis. Amazing training session!❤

Australian shepherds and the likes really have a hard time in “modern lifestyle” because most of the time their needs are not being met if you realize that they are used to herding and roam hectares of land!! Great on the female owner to have the mentality of “cut this sht out” and staying calm!

[@mommabird2813]

Exactly! A majority of working breeds needs aren’t being met in a typical modern lifestyle.

[@sandramacey7352]

You said exactly what I was thinking. Those sort of dogs can run all day and it's in their dna to want to herd. I find it hard to watch the dog as he seems so frustrated. He needs to be on a working farm working sheep or cattle. He is in beautiful condition but his brain is not being stimulated or being used in the right way, Kudos to the owners, but I wouldn't have a herding dog in an urban setting (I'm only guessing that's the sort of area they live) even if I had access to rural areas/parks etc.

[@brose27377]

Agree, but what does one do once they have a dog like this? It better be trained or it will end up hurting someone or ruined. We adopted a mini Aussie mix in 2020 from a shelter in TX with many of these problems (we were told she was a Sheltie mix, and maybe she is, but she looks and acts more like an Aussie). I am so thankful for this teaching. I'm using many of these methods and she is so much better than when we got her (including nipping, barking, whining, etc.) The pop has been the single most help! I thank you so much! And, yes, I'm over it with her!!! And we love her.

[@justchilling7594]

The personality of this woman is awesome to watch with this dog! All the training in the world will not help if the owner is not in charge. People need to be honest with themselves about how strong of a personality they have to determine what type of dog they can handle. Working dogs are probably more than what 50% of us can handle.

[@aussiegrace]

Wait, What! The dog finally seemed to settle at the end. Great video, very helpful in doing the stop and pop. The owner is fantastic.

[@mila98053]

McCoy reminds me very much of my own Aussie from the behavior. My dog was diagnosed with hypothyroidism last year and since he gets medication for it, he has become much calmer. Maybe it would not hurt to have him tested by someone who knows about it. It doesn't mean he doesn't need training but it might explain some of his behaviors and help with his training.

[@mann234]

This dog is full of clever energy - just needed the right training all along.

[@colajacks571]

great start! loved this 3 part episode. the top 2 takeaways here were 1) let your dog go and 2) how to make an effective correction. this could've been done on the prong collar she originally came with if she knew how to correct on it appropriately. I'm glad she had success under Joel's direction with the gentle leader. a tool is just a tool; its success is based on the user and in this case, she was able to effectively correct the dog on the gentle leader. her handling (leash pops, pressure, body positioning, body pressure, walk ins, turns, etc) was also terrific. can't wait to see more of his progress.

[@marianneporter26]

I went from a prong to a gentle leader because of Joel. It works so much better and doesn’t have the stigma that the prong collar. I’m really hoping these people have success because that dog is exhausting!

[@pmlm1571]

The owners are a godsend to that beautiful but ramped up dog. I saw LOTS of improvement in his behavior; there is hope for a good family dog here :-)

[@love2smyle]

I am impressed with the owner's dedication and persistence going through all of the hard work. Well done

[@robinrutherfordcost4748]

Such an improvement from day 1 when they were both even struggling with the prong collar. Now at least the dog has some more of a loose leash and can even meet a dog calmly on a loose leash with the gate in between. I think the dog and the owners realize the progress they've both made. Plus the whining seems to be less too - I think partly because the dog getting away with stuff isn't going to work anymore.

I follow a couple other trainers, who also strongly emphasize the car door boundry method.....so simple, but so crucial !!, and SO effective, IF you put the time in.

[@marieforcier5898]

This was a great trilogy. The woman was freakin great listening to your suggestions and following through. Bravo to her. Your Prince is no different than any health care worker, they don't do it because it's easy, they do it because it's their job and it's helpful to others. I wonder sometimes how many reactive dogs never got checked as puppies by their Momma or early socialized. Nothing better then puppies being put in their place. Prince does the checking just on a much more extreme level and that level of checking down the road could be a life saver to a smaller dog caught up in the reactiveness of this Aussie . Prince would have been a fabulous rescue hero dog of any kind, he just has all the skills!

[@cutejapanesecatsandanimals5338]

Many of us have felt our tired bodies and spirits suddenly relax when we are with our dogs. In fact, it has been scientifically proven that dogs have a healing effect. The reason why dogs have a healing effect is that they are more loyal than other animals and they trust their owners wholeheartedly. Their eyes and gestures toward their owners express with their whole body that they trust you. When you go to work, they express their loneliness, and when you come home, they jump around and wag their tails to show their happiness. What do you think when you see this? It should make you feel happy to know that you are trusted and loved. Feeling truly loved brings healing to the human heart. Humans feel happy and healed when they are loved by dogs. When you put a dog on your lap or stroke its head, you can feel its warmth through your skin.🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕🐶🐶🐶🐶💖💖💖💖

My daughter and i have both have Aussies - mine is only 10 weeks and gets a little crazy without exercise and play with other dogs as well training and playing with me. My daughters 2 aussies get a 15 km run or bike in the morning and good walk in the evening at the dog park as well they tour ski with, mountain biking and back country hiking. These dogs need stimulating exercise and also need a partnership with their people. They have been bred to be independent thinkers so once they know what is expected of them they don’t require much management.

Australian shepherds are absolutely like this when they aren't given strict rules and when those rules aren't enforced. This is the classic picture of a family who didn't know the breed they were choosing.

[@hansenhollla6705]

The only way to get a dog to calm down & settle into strange people, strange dogs, & strange places is to exhaust them while doing what is uncomfortable for them. Eventually they will get so tired, they’ll forget why they were so hyped up to begin with. & then do it some more. & then some more after that. Repetition becomes habit & practice makes perfect. I like to go out of my way to show my dog an optional place to be as soon as we get to these strange places, filled with strange people & dogs, ( point to a spot on the sofa for her to sit while we’re all in the living room, or a nice quiet corner on the floor where she can curl up in & won’t be stepped on, or showing her a spot in the sun or under a table when we’re all outside or at the pool, etc.) (I also take into consideration, when assigning these spots, that my dog really likes a good vantage point to me or where I will be, and I pick them accordingly. A little understanding helps go a long way without crossing the line into spoiling or catering towards bad behavior. ) ( BTW it may sound extraneous the way I explained this but it takes 3 seconds to walk into a room, see what looks like a nice place for yur dog to sit, & then pointing it out as such to Yur dog. ) in order to let her know that she can become comfortable in an uncomfortable situation on her own time. though most of the time she never ends up using these spots unless she genuinely wants to sit down, 99% of the time, so-SOO much of the situational anxiety’s dissolve knowing that there is a place for her to fit into these strange, or maybe in her opinion, scary, social situations. Not to be confused with allowing Yur dog to take advantage of these “spots” to where they can be used as actual escapes from the situation & or become possessive over them ( letting Yur dog act a fool as long as they do it EG: on a sofa, in a corner, or under a table at the pool.. ) Not to make the mistake of setting Yur dog too far out of the way as yu want them in the same situation as yu are, not away from it. As the dog trainer said in part 1 “ inside the circle of trust.” When she doesn’t have a “spot” pointed out to her, she acts just like the Shephard in this video.. Anxiety induced, hyper-ventilator panting, whining, walking in circles, up & down up & down… given that this Shepard HAS “a place” at home, he’s been conditioned in the same kind of way that my dog is, & I 100% guarantee that if they showed & articulated to this very well trained, yet anxious dog, a spot for him to lay in the office, his behavior would have changed significantly, especially over time & in different locations. & even if it was the spot he was already laying in. So for this, I fundamentally disagree & find it especially inappropriate for a dog trainer to tell someone, who’s coming to them for help, that their dog’s anxious whining will NEVER go away.. as that is just un-true, especially with the right methods & enough time working with them on it. Letting a pet owner know that the more they work with their dog, the more whining there will be & FOREVER is a major deterrent as that whining shit is hella annoying, & who wants to go out of their way, put in all of the work, & a fantastic amount of comfort & time for their dog to still be so clearly, painfully, & LOUDLY succumbing to hysterical anxiety?

[@lunayogini21]

Yes, to the comments commending the pet parent. Joel thank you for sharing the importance of Prince's work and for sure gentle leader should sponsor you! .....and I still think McCoy needs a job herding some goats!

[@gailwhite8796]

I agree that the gentle leader is one of the best inventions ever! It’s great for training and getting physical advantage and control of a dog, but I always tell my clients that ultimately, the leash and fancy collars/head halters are for safety - the real control is in the relationship you build with your dog. I would have liked to see McCoy getting some positive feedback (a simple “good!” Or “Yes!”) when he was doing well. He did lots of things right, but didn’t get any encouragement. I think he’s smart enough to understand a quick “good” as well as he understands the leash pop. The challenge I’ve run into is client trainer timing their positive reinforcement. These people definitely have their work cut out for them, but I have lots of hope for McCoy because his Mom is really a great student! Best of luck to all involved!

[@pneeb419]

My Aussie has never been a problem on a leash....matter of fact, I have always been able to take her even to a pet store without holding the leash at all. I just slap the side of my leg and she stayed next to my leg dragging the leash behind her. Only when another dog came up to her would I hold the leash, not because she would stray away, but I wasn't sure how the other dog was going to react. Never even put much training into it, she just did it....smartest dog I've ever had. My BC is another story....the Gentle Leader was a lifesaver with her. I could run her for an hour straight and she still was impossible to walk without the Gentle Leader. But now that she is 14+ with bad arthritis and cancer, getting her to even walk to the end of the block is a chore. But she's sick, so we let her choose how far she wants to go.

After my Belgian Malinois Asko died in the January 2021. I start looking videos from all the Authors on the KZbin that I found, read the books, learn about the dog behaviour and everything around the dogs and even other animals to try to understand the animals in order to be able to not only love them but also to help them to live happy life. Now, beside the Cesar Milan who is a great man and dog trainer, In my opinion Mr. Beckmann is a real deal. I don’t know him and my goal is not to advertise him in any way, but I have to say that he understand and know everything. Long story short, after my Asko died in January 2021. I bought the Kan in March 2021. Kan is also Belgian Malinois, I just love this breed. I go with all the things that Mr. Beckmann say in many videos and play with my puppies for the first 9 months, enjoying the time with little maligator;-) Two weeks ago, I start to work on basic obedience just following the suggested methods and could say that the result is amazing. After two weeks we walk on a loose leash, came when I call him, seat and so on. So, the understanding that Mr. Beckmann has and the good will that he is willing to give everyone is just amazing. So, Mr. Beckmann thank you very much for being let just say great and keep doing amazing work! Thanks!

[@deejay9782]

Never and Always are Big words, especially when rehabbing a creature well-known for living in the moment (=on instincts) ... Maybe a point to ponder when the dog starts showing signs of wanting to change and being more obedient (=responsive) to the master's commands is to try waiting a bit longer to reward the State of Mind more than the Behavior. In this way, the dog Master can reach the ultimate goal of having the dog attain a more peaceful and relaxed state of mind. This should inevitably lower everyone's anxiousness level by a lot as well as greatly diminish the dogs whining. if not eliminate it altogether. Thanks for sharing these great videos and big kudos to the ultimate dog master Prince whose corrections are absolutely priceless.

I love this guy’s training! I have good babies but they are STRONG and they PULL. (esp when they gotta go ya know). I’m taking notes!😎thanks for teaching us!

[@Dubbelmums]

This was so good to see. She gona make it. Good jobb

I did the pop method with my 11 month old puppy today and he didn't pull at all and only put tension on the leash a few times. After only about 20 minutes of work I was so pleased .Thanks dude!

Gentle Leaders effectively used can greatly expand a dog's world! 👍❤️

My Aussie is the same. This trilogy was incredibly helpful.

[@CritiquelHit]

This was incredible to watch!

[@Revi1028]

I can watch these videos all day and I don’t even own a dog! 😊

This is helpful. My Kelpie/Cattle Dog Mix is not as anxious as Mc Koy but she reacts to other dogs. This video really shows the techniques. I have been trying to perfect the popping leash. It works. Thankfully my pup gets in and out of cars and houses calmly. And she is good with people and cats.

I really love how you explain things. Most training videos do not explain in the way you do, You explain things clearly and step by step that us unknowledgeable people have a hard time with. In a way you dumb it down so we can understand where we are unknowledgeable in this area. You make sure to check in and ask if it makes sense without making people feel stupid. Thank you. You explain things very well for the everyday person. :)

She is doing an amazing job in this video

[@markreynolds9135]

Wow, that dog has really trained her well.

My Dog Bear a Cane Corso, is so similar to Prince. Just a very special dog, so well trained. HE understands 3 languages and the elevation of each, so he reacts faster or more urgently to German than he does in Estonia. Though English is now the main language & he just turned 10. He is still so special, never picks a fight, but will finish one. Just has that superior intuition I attribute to his continuous training for the first 24 months of his life. He grew up in Estonia & we have traveled all over the world together. I really respect your methods and work, I didn't think anyone like you existed. Back during my travels & my Cane Corso was young, I would get fluff from people for my separation method. Removing my dog from the circle or activity when he was acting too hyper or aggressive towards someone(super dominant and protective breed). I would say it's the best punishment because all he wants most is to be right here next to me, & part of all of our activities. I am so happy to see someone video the method and prove that it works & well. Eventually, he was put into bite work training and guard dog work in Estonia. He is 10 and still knows the command to run a perimeter, attack, release, Etc. But unless he is working he is the most chill dog, he loves kids, & women. Every so often he doesn't like a man, & if they come to close he will bark letting them know to back off. Which we encourage in our training. Unknown enters into our personal space, I want them to be backed off. He never bit anyone ever, unless told to. It hyper-focused his guard instincts. He and I are still together now living in NJ, USA. He is short on his days, I can only hope I get as much time as possible with him. I do have a second dog, that for some reason, can't control her hyperactivity. We have been at it for nearly 3 years, using basically all of your techniques. But she still just can't control the excitement. He no longer jumps but she rears up, & corrects herself mid-way. But her problem is Off leash outdoors. She sees anything from a mouse to a Bear(Excluding Other Dogs I introduce her to, & some neighbor dogs that come by to visit my older boy) she doesn't listen. She Saved me from a Black Bear just recently. It was within a 15feet from me, when she saw it and attacked it chasing it off. I was grateful but scared because she didn't disengage that Bear until it was out of our yard & beyond her reach. Is this ok? I mean She needs to come without me threatening to punish her. It's embarrassing when she does this. Not sure how to fix it now at nearly 3. Any advice?

I had a German Shepherd that was extremely protective of family. We were generally scared to have friends or family around because he was so protective. I wish we had someone to help us train our dog like you train these dogs. Iron sharpens iron. Dogs train dogs.

[@JODYNE100]

Thank you for sharing about dogs so many people need to know and understand dog behaviour

[@beardookeashley3946]

I can't help but wonder how well this dog has improved since this video. I am glad to hear how many times he said, "Over it" during this trilogy. This was my first exposure to your videos and I will look into more.

[@haydenchapman3431]

Great video. Thanks for sharing this technique. This would have to be the single best video for on leash control I have seen. On with the Halti and off to work with 2 of my dogs that need this.

[@carrielea6009]

Wow, he’s so much better in one day!

[@Rambeau777]

Those Australians are SOOOO smart, it shouldn't take long for him to correct his behavior!!
