[@tesla-spectre]

Yeah as an owner of a midsize hunting dog I can only say: the worst behaving dogs are consistently the small ones. Most people who get a chihuahua , yorkie or esp poodle seem to think they are so small , they can simply drag them around and need not train them. They are also far more likely to be aggressive, barking etc pp. So yeah, esp small dog owners need to do training.

It’s almost impossible to get my dog bam bam to get in control of her self. She’s a Yorkshire terrier very self minded and gets super excited easily and distracted easily.

@@notchs0son With respect, you are the problem, not your dog. I've never met a dog I couldn't leash train in a single day. I've never met a dog I couldn't train to stop jumping on people in a single day. Please seek help from a professional dog trainer. You can learn what you are doing wrong. People call an HVAC professional to fix their broken central air. People call a doctor when they break a bone. People call an exterminator when they have termites. So why don't people call a professional dog trainer to help with their dog's bad behavior? No one should feel ashamed or embarrassed to get professional help with their dog and more than calling a professional to fix the other things.

I watch his show every saturday and bought the book kzbin.infoUgkxGQVgV21bQ7B9b9duQ1ByImyT9xHbjOKq because i like his method. He's very talktative in the book about his dog training experiences with several different breeds over the years. When he does get to the training chapters, you need to read more slowly, take mental or written notes and try to apply his advice to your pet. That's where i'm at now. Another review is in order aftet i've trained my blue mountain shepherd with brandon mcmillan's method.

[@seanvalentinus]

I feel like every piece of dog training advice I've seen before this video has fallen into one of two categories: either nice sounding positive-only folks, or blokes with buzz cuts who look like they're in the military talking about discipline and being a pack leader. You're the first person I've seen explaining a middle way between those two mentalities, and hearing it I really feel like I can see how sorely that is needed. I really appreciate you taking the time to explain how you correct and why. You're coming from an empathetic place and that's important. I've bought a slip lead, and I'm going to start trying to get my sweet natured, way too rambunctious pup to line up with us so we can have happy walks and good times together.

[@annemarietaube6335]

I respect that you explain in detail what your doing. No pet parent wants to see their furry baby receive physical correction, our protective instinct comes out. Tho when ur furry baby is jumping, pulling ur arm out of socket on walks. When family & friends look annoyed the minute they see your crazy furry baby. I want ppl to walk into my home without feeling apprehensive, & I dont want to scold Salem & make her feel bad every time someone comes near us. But the positive reward method wasn't doing it for her level of energy & determination. I had to add on more stern corrections, was very hard for me to do at 1st, I felt it would push her away & shed no longer feel safe & protected around me, but that didnt happen. The 1st training session was more training myself to speak commands using a voice of confidence & authority, dogs are more likely to follow a command coming from an alpha voice as opposed to a soothing voice, so are ppl for that matter. So I trained me, then I approached her. I kept my fear of pushing her away in check, & began correcting her leash pulling. I forgot to bring treats, all she got was correction, I couldnt allow guilt or doubt to come in, so I carried on with training. First time I used the leash to correct her she looked at me surprised. she pulled, I gave a quick desisive tug & heading the opposite way, 2 walks up & down our block later we walked up our driveway with her next to me instead of in front of me. I praised her. The next day she hesitated for a second when she saw the leash, but didnt run & we went again. It didnt push her away, its actually brought us closer as we work as a team & she has a job to focus on which she thrives at. We do this a few minutes daily, & we have just started working on jumping with leash control, the grand kids volunteer & call her, even get excited & Salems walking up to them & getting pet & coming back without commands, then she gets loads of praise & pets from all of us who are so pleased shes not scratching us. And I could see the difference on the kids faces when she walks in the room now compared to when she darted in before, theyre genuinely happy to see her, & she senses that. Its improved everyones interaction with salem & put good vibes in the room making Salem more content & only sensing those happy content vibes. We're all closer & Ive become a bit more self assured & confident in myself in the process.

[@Ferment668]

This is the best advice for any dog owner!! I see owners with medium/large dogs that have no control over their jumping pooch and I always worry about the elderly, or smaller-sized people. It's also just annoying when dogs jump on you. I'm a huge dog-lover and dog owners definitely need to learn this rule--even with the smaller-sized pooches too.

[@DatPuzzle]

I always come back to your videos when I feel lost, and when I start feeling unsure of what methods to use. I grew up with a dad using quite tough methods on our working spaniels, and it never felt right to use that much, in my opinion, abuse. I also don't feel comfortable using loads of treats and toys, since it sends my working cocker into stress and anxiety. I find your approach being a perfect balance of both physical correction and praise. And every time I come back here I feel like I can take a deep breath and remember what it's supposed to feel like. Thank you for the knowledge you give us, my cocker thanks you too ❤🐾

[@jamesthompson7407]

Out of curiosity have these methods been successful for your working cocker? We have a 15 month old working cocker and we are lost, we went to a working dog trainer which was like you say abusive and actually made his behaviour worse. To a positive reinforcement trainer where he seems to do everything correct in the training room but once we leave it’s back to the usual bad behaviours, jumping up at people, on kitchen sides etc. From having him on off lead walks at 7 months to now where we are petrified to let him off and no walks are enjoyable due to pulling etc, even after the endless hours of training. I’ve discovered these videos today and I’m going to get the slip lead back out (we were told strictly no slip leads) and give these methods a try.

[@DatPuzzle]

Sounds familiar, it has been a struggle but I feel like the only thing that actually works for us is being 100% consistent, having clear rules so that the dog understands what is expected, and work on the relationship so that they also want to cooperate. We still have problems with him jumping on people, but that is mostly because I don't have the energy to always take on the battle, you kinda need the person being jumped on to also work with you. But he is much better during walks, there's a video with Will walking a cocker that I've watched a couple of times, check that one out! It made a lot of sense to me at least :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/rZSZY4ima7B4haM And also, sometimes the age plays a role too. We had a working springer that was crazy up until she was about 5-6 years old. Some of them just need a little more time to grow..

[@jamesthompson7407]

@@DatPuzzle yes we will definitely be putting in some ground rules. The relationship is also where I’ve struggled, getting him to engage when we’re out of the house. I can’t see him calming down any time soon so we I’ll have to work at it :’) Thanks for the advice and thanks for the video link!

[@DatPuzzle]

@@jamesthompson7407 Yeah I've had the same, everything else is more interesting than me. I've brought a dummy or a ball with me on walks sometimes, and done some retrieves, and also some whistle training, and then keep walking. These dogs escalate so quickly though.. So I'm still searching for the solution myself. My dad used to tell me to act like a wet towel at all times 😅To just be calm, slow and heavy, never praise the dog in a high pitched voice. Working dogs are a bit special haha, but so fun to work with. Good luck with yours! Hope you find some inspiration on the channel :)

Well done. I have been training dogs for decades and I believe you thoroughly explained the thought processes and actions required to quickly and effectively train dogs without having to use unnecessary corrections. That is to say, by reading the dog and matching the right level of firmness in your initial correction, you are able to quickly use less and less physical corrections and more and more praise. Many owners try an initial correction or two that are not physically effective and end up nagging the dog with ineffective corrections and ultimately not teaching the dog to adapt to using the desired behavior. Ask yourself which is easier on the dog and on you? Nagging, never making the point, corrections or a few well-timed properly applied corrections, with the correct tools, to very quickly get to verbal only corrections needed and a much more fun relationship between you and the dog.

Dont follow this technic it is scientifically proven to cause redirected aggression and other unwanted behaviours which can manifest further down the line. There are better positive reinforced technics available which take slightly longer but dont require potential Dog Behaviourist to help with your dog further down the line. Plus dont yank your dogs lead when on collar, it could put your dog in the vets. Negative to positive mainly causes anxiety and not good for growing the bond between you. Grow with love and respect, not through fear and quick fix. Cost you less in the long run. Also, only take training advice from Animal Management and Welfare qualified with a degree people. Make sure its not from a online course that anyone can easily gain.

I love watching these videos and I have helped a lot of people with their dogs with the information you provide. Would it be possible for you to do a video of correcting these habits in a home environment without a lead so the dog is in their own space. For example, people ask me, “I’ve mastered the walking but when people come into the house, the excitement comes over the dog and they want to jump but without a lead, I can’t stop it apart from verbal correction” I tell them to utilise the lead in the house and get to a stage where they are not jumping and then doing it without”

[@allanrobinson5342]

Hi, one way of stopping this jumping up, is to have the person who your dog jumps up at, turn around/away from your dog. If your dog jumps up at you, you could do this turning around/away. As with most things, repetition reinforces. Hope this helps, it is what my trainer does at my puppies training class.

You have to start on leash. You have far more control. Pairing the correction with verbal marker then will allow you to use the verbal marker before the act to prevent it. So at some point ideally you can just use verbal marker. Mind you you will need to be ready to back it up when necessary by going over and getting the dog immediately if non compliance occurs.

The Guide elaborates on the techniques used on the show. The examples given in the kzbin.infoUgkxECnmSvBSv_NGWx4_ChD73pF3NYZwI2F3 are helpful and some of the techniques suggested very useful. One such technique/tool suggested was the lure stick to encourage a small dog to keep up with the heel command. I have a small dog who lags behind smelling any and everything and find it hard to keep bending over while walking to his level. The lure stick is great also for another dogs focus and sprinting at anything that catches her eye. The stories about different dogs, their different temperaments, have been helpful, especially Lulu's: After reading about Lulu's challenges I felt relief concerning one of my rescues that I have had for 10 years. Over many years I have checked out many training books from the library, watched different shows, DVDS, bought training books, taken lessons and this book is the best by far! Kindness, patience and perseverance works.

I'm enjoying a lot of Will's videos, not least this one about jumping. So I've seen our rescue beagle improve dramatically during a training session, and following up on the reward for good behaviour, but her jumping has not really improved overall. I am worried about continuing to reward her because she is putting on weight with all the treats! Suggestions welcome - and thanks for all you are doing for the dogs and their humans!

[@gailwilliams5278]

Could you just cut back slightly on her meals, to allow for training treats?

[@Tidybitz]

Love this, I've never seen anything addressing this before. I love dogs and all animals, but all dogs should be trained not to jump up, it's dog bad manners which ultimately reflect on the owners. There's nothing worse than a dog jumping up and messing up whatever you're wearing, or worse, injuring someone. Well done!

[@theoilport3822]

I can't even tell yoy how amazing of a trainer you are. My husband and I are trainers and LOVE your content.

[@JoywritingCars]

Very helpful. Would be great to see an exercise where the dog is not on a leash in the same scenarios. Those are the harder ones to control and most of us don't carry treats around the house when friends and family come over. Thanks for all you do!

[@SerenityChaos1975]

But this is training that should be undertaken daily, really good to practice if you walk your dog morning or afternoon before they are fed. You can just use regular dry food, then progress to eliminating food once they begin to understand what the verbal communication means, often praise alone is enough.

[@andrew348]

I think you missed the point. Why are family and friends preventing you from carrying around treats? If you aren't willing to train your dog in your own house you can't expect good behavior outside of the house. This video demonstrated the first level of training. A physical correction paired with a verbal correction. The next step is off leash. If you jump to that step immediately it won't work unless you're willing to chase your dog around the house to convince it to sit/lay etc. That would be a bit embarrassing with family and friends around. I think the leash and treats is a more respectable look.

[@dinahweisberg750]

@@andrew348 I'm with you. And I always have treats in my pockets (as evidenced by me finding them in my jeans after they've gone through the wash...)

[@katdenning6535]

I keep treats strategically around the house so I can easily give my pup a “yes” & grab some to reward. We also use a house leash at all times (also good for catching him if he’s too escalated or steals a sock). It’s not as good for training as a slip leash but makes it easier to manage him. If we have a lot of people coming over, we sometimes put a traffic leash on that has a handle closer to the neck to keep him in check. He’s easily worked into a frenzy by kids and large groups (work in progress) still so we have to put him in the back room to settle occasionally too. I’d absolutely recommend always having a leash on

[@indaymorena9881]

We own 3 months old Goldador and she started jumping on my 4yearold daughter and keep bit her hair or pulling her hair. So this video will be very helpful as I felt frustrated how to stop our dog to jumping on people. Thank You Will.

[@valeries1251]

Great video and message! Love the fairness and leadership mentality.

[@jamiemorse4487]

Hi, love these videos. I have been trying some of your techniques and working really well. What do you give the dogs as treats as I am worried about over feeding my dog?

[@emilybeaulieu999]

Use a portion of their daily kibble

[@susanlippy1009]

Does your dog love their food? Probably not enough to use in high distraction environments. What you use depends on the difficulty level. At home low distraction skills already knows kibble works reserve a portion of every meal to train with. At park high distraction environment high value favorite treats. If you use things such as quality meats you can reduce kibble intake to compensate without any issues. I don't use junk treats such as milk bones that contain no nutrition myself as they are pointless empty calories. I use actual food.

[@MoeGewily]

My Great Pyrenees used to jump on people all the time, and no matter what I did she wouldn't stop. She's well trained too. She's just really stubborn, I mean really really stubborn. You can give her a command, she can understand the command, and then she decides whether she wants to listen or not, unless I use a firm tone with her then she will listen. But she would not stop jumping, so instead I taught her to slowly get up on her two hind legs and gently give the person a hug and it's gotta be the most wholesome thing ever. Now when ever I get home she walks up to me and slowly stands up, and ever so gently puts her paws on my chest and gives me a hug. Ever since I taught her how to do that she hasn't jumped on anyone again, and she doesn't even hug anyone but me unless they signal her with the command i taught her. She grew up to be such a well mannered and gentle dog. Now I have a puppy that jumps non-stop and I'm going to try your method on him, it looks sooooo much easier and way less time consuming lol. I love your channel by the way, you offer really great tips and advice for people who want to bond with and train their dogs them selves.

[@glennmartin5826]

Thanks for the well delivered instantly helpful content.

[@sewlovemydogs]

Just love the smarts bred into and retained in working lines.

[@babyclarabelle]

My elderly aunt was knocked over by a labradoodle that jumped up at her and she broke her knee. Dogs absolutely must be trained out of this behaviour. Thanks for the video Will

[@lillyk6711]

Just to let anyone know, if you're still having issues with your pup, don't worry! I taught mine a command that encouraged her to jump, but obviously not on people. When she meets someone new and doesn't know what to do with all the excitement and energy she just starts bouncing in circles around them, its adorable. Now she doesn't jump on people, but she knows she's still allowed to jump. To do this I would hold food above her head till she jumped to get it, once she got the hang of that I took away the hand signal and just left the command. When she would jump without needing my signal, I would of course give her a treat. There wasn't much needed after that, when she would jump on me I would walk into her till she got down, then I'd give her the jump command, causing her to jump, but not on me. Then she would get her reward. Eventually she learned jumping is okay, just not on people.

[@zoua93]

Thank you for the advice! I might try this on my pup.

[@LailaHepburnandmarleysdit]

I taught one of my dogs to sit like a meerkat when he feels the need to try to get someone's attention, no jumping involved but still very effective at getting attention ;)

[@chappell204]

Wo thank you for helping with training our Pochon Truffle who is just turned 5 mths . He’s toilet trained sleeping in his crate also. So now working on jumping up as gets quite excited to make friends. I have learnt so much from your videos . Brent 🇳🇿

[@nicholassoares1676]

This video is OUT-DAMN-STANDING, Will!! Thank you!

[@pictlandpickers1171]

I had a customers dog that would jump up and all over me when I worked at there's. I looked after it for a night and it never would again but would jump all over the customers when I showed up as he knew he couldn't with me.

[@titzalinabumscrew2511]

Might try that slip lead on the kids while I’m in Tesco , looks harmless enough

[@kathrynhope3705]

Will, works so quickly with my 1 yr old pup. And so easy . A big thanks

[@kikifromhawaii]

Love it love it!! Thanks for the great advice I did find it useful and valuable!!!

[@TheZ3r0D3m0n]

Hi Will, I have a burning question that I haven't really seen being addressed anywhere: My pup (5 Month old Cane Corso) has excellent behavior etc. as long as he is on the leash. We generally have him on a "Choker Chain" when out in public (He is VERY well socialized) and generally he behaves as the best pup in the world. There are some times where corrections are administered, however it is in understandable circumstances. The question though is, the moment we take the leash off it is as if he forgets everything he knows - especially the jumping up as indicated in this amazing video - including other "bad" behaviors. We are very fond of a balanced approach to training so we do a lot of positive "good boy" verbal, treats and toys (Toys only while playing though and not as a generalized reward). Along with that, we do a "ha-ah" type of verbal correction when undesired actions take place. Even with all of this, he still chooses a LOT of bad behavior when the leash is removed. A pivot we recently introduced is a long slip lead (almost 3 meters long) to be able to "reach" him when he does something we do not want and this again has amazing response, but the same when we remove the slip he is falling back to bad behaviors. As a summary: It almost feels like the correct behavior does not 'stick' or there is some connotation to the collar/leash. Can you comment or advise on this? I have had a few dogs of similar nature and this is the first time I am experiencing this. Love your videos and courses!

[@Wob-rt1sc]

Thanks for asking this-I have a Newfie age 2 (use a half check collar) and the same problem. I hope you get a reply!

[@toddlcarr]

I keep a small slip on leash by the door. Before folks come in, I slip it on. My dog goes into training mode. The leash comes off when the dog calms down.

[@mclav74]

I was just about to ask the same question … our puppy is reacting well to the big “yes” but when she’s not on a lead she appears to forget it … what would the physical check for the dog be when not on a lead??

[@lindenpeters2601]

A common method for puppies is to keep a "house line" on them for quick, non-physical corrections. You can use a cheap leash with the loop cut off so it won't get caught on things.

[@Yourbsf332]

Any tips, tricks for barking?

[@willathertoncaninetraining]

Hey Theresa thanks for watching! We've actually got a video looking at this question: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eHe9mKZtnKhqjZY

[@BuddhatheRockstar]

Thank you for discussing Learning Theory and educating us.

[@Mrkiddballer15]

This guy knows his stuff for real

[@MiriamDandelion]

You may not have damaged your own relationship with the dog, but the dog was clearly concerned about Matt for the next few reps. Definitely wouldn’t do this with dogs who have any aggressive tendencies. You can easily skip the physical correction by applying a bit more management during the first rep.

[@musiord]

Method so violent… welcome to 1920 🤬

[@Keytanas]

agree. Old school. Why not use New tecniqs with positive training

[@ericstanfield600]

Truly amazing and simple. Thanks Will! Cant wait to try this!

[@helenalabi777]

The sequential method you show us in this video really works. Thanks Will great video.

[@amythompson6881]

This was a great video! Thank you for your clear and concise teaching and directions!
