[@riverramos9586]

@@camrose2936 You can try a gentle leader or an actually good prong. I've tried a prong on myself and it doesn't hurt at all because it's a good one. Another good option is a harness. It helped a lot with my pup. Just don't get the kind that keeps them from pulling completely because it basically is restraining the dog. Hope this helped.

[@honeychurchgipsy6]

@@riverramos9586 - I wouldn't use a prong collar but a good harness with two lead attachments - one for the front so you can bring their front end towards you - and a slight 'martingale' action is useful. Ultimately though, as one of the trainers at the dog training school I go to says, every time you carry on walking with your dog puling hard out ahead of you - leading the way - you are basically saying "that's fine - you carry on - I'm fine with you pulling". Zak's approach is time consuming but it is the only one that really works.

[@riverramos9586]

@@honeychurchgipsy6 A harness helped me out a lot too. I'm glad you know what works for you. For me a prong stopped my pup from choking herself and harming other dogs (fighting) since we can't socialize he due to Covid and a lack of dogs around. It took a lot for me to put the prong on, but the results were amazing. The harness got really good results too :)

[@r.palomino9669]

Zak’s greatest skill isn’t training dogs, it’s making treats out of thin air when rewarding. I swear I see some appear out of nowhere.

[@kimrichmond6308]

Watch his hands - he constantly has something in his hand, and usually more than one. Also video editing helps with the illusion. These are voice over videos in many cases.

The dogs say the same thing 😂😂

[@tinyflame17]

He’s always holding some in his hands. Which is why Inertia is staring at his hands. She can smell it. If he didn’t have the treats in his hands or acted like food was in his hand, I highly doubt Inertia would be focused at all

Same here! Especially since my pup became super-reactive after two surgeries + a move across country + the isolation of pandemic precautions.

[@honeychurchgipsy6]

@@julienowak1430 - I feel for you - my (now 7) young dog went from being a normally socialised, if highly strung, puppy, to a fear reactive dog who cannot be allowed to interact with other dogs. She had two seasons back to back which meant she was dealing with raging hormones, and had to be kept away from other dogs, for a few months (we couldn't get her spayed during this time). She has never recovered - so I wish you luck - if any methods can help they will be Zak's - but don't be afraid to use any local services available - one to one training works well!!

[@stephanielauren987]

I am so with you on this I was so embarrassed when we tried to take our pup out and it doesn't help we got him during the pandemic so he hasn't been around as many other people as we normally would so trying to get him use to it now is proving difficult

[@1129buttons]

I think the most important thing was what you said right at the beginning, which would go over most peoples heads. You gave her a long walk then you played with her and then you started the training after. Which means she ready and finally focus.

[@Kpenny300]

If you have to order your dog's dog food there is no time to play, walk and train your dog. Just like kids ypur dog forms a bond with the person that trains them. The problem is that ppl do not know what care is needed for the dog that they have. Just like kids are not the same and they are different... Dogs are too.... Breeds of dogs need different things.. First and for most research the dog that you are getting even if its a rescue. Things like the very climate that they are in impacts the K-9.... Taking lesson from a single temperament or breed of dog is not always applicable to your dog..... Smmfh... Dogs are not accessories

[@Shredderof_POWDA]

@@Kpenny300 That was the most random comment ever....🤷‍♂️. You talking to yourself or....lmao

[@CamilleGG451]

Absolutley!! As a beginning dog trainer, I'm really trying to emphasize that hugely! In fact, really trying to separate walking on-leash from exercise at first: using the walk as a very specific exercise (with a leash just for it), in boring places like in house and backyard to learn the on-leash technique. Doing actual exercise separately using fetch, tug... Don't walk your dog while they're in training to get YOUR exercise. You both need to get your exercise by other means until leash-work is learned. 😊💕 I think that takes a lot of stress off to approach it that way.... And-- Love you Zak! You are a wonderful and skilled soul! The world is better for your being here 💕🐾🐾

[@mystic_tacos]

My dog, 3yr old Choc Lab, trains ONLY when he wants. I can tire him out, make sure he is fed, but it doesn't matter. We might train 20 minutes or 2, when he is done he just lays down and that's it. toys, food, type of food, nothing gets him back. I wish it were this easy lol

I live in the middle of the city so leash training is difficult! Always people trains cars dogs noises etc. This helps me not be so frustrated. Also my puppy is 15 weeks old today and it has taken a while for her attention to develop so I’m hoping she’ll be able to focus better now. Thanks for the video.

This video is so reassuring! I have a 5 month puppy who has difficulty paying attention to me on our walks. I thought that it was because he was testing boundaries and my leadership, but this reassures me that he just needs to learn more impulse control. And impulse control, like humans, takes time and practice to master. I no longer feel like a puppy parent failure.

I didn't want to keep forcing her because it sets her back so I avoided it but this inspires me to keep trying, even just a little at a time and work in small sections. I need to limit her exposure and allow her to build her confidence. Thank you again!

Seems counter intuitive but you do not NEED to walk your dog for long time , you actually risk over stimulating them...ten mins of scent work finding treats in garden or house is worth an hour of crazy running... young dogs should only have 5 mins per month of age in walks a day.... joint care way more important!

Ive been watching yout videos for a while now and they have got my dog so far thank you so much

[@kathleenkayk]

Love this video. Watching now with my pup...the pulling--wait, the look at me vs. dog poo--thank you! My JR mix is almost as alert, active and smart as sweet Inertia. Thanks again.

I find it with my dog if I do a “training” walk for 10 minutes and we cover a new area in the neighbourhood, the way back is easier. Usually I go back the same way for that reason. Thanks for your videos! Good to see a trainer go through the same issues.

Love how real you keep it. Not about perfection but progress. Thank you Zak. Very helpful. Trying this later today a bit different in NYC but will apply same “rules” -

[@rebeccajones6345]

I love Zak's story telling at the end. Makes me realize what I must look like when I'm telling dog training stories.

She reminds me so much of my 1 year old Tervuren here. He's super easily distracted, and he's very fascinated by birds. I'm working on desensitizing him to it, but he still acts like a puppy most of the time.

Very helpful! I've been struggling a lot with loose leash. Not so much in the city/on normal walks but when we hike (my dog has a massive prey drive and will likely never ever be off leash while hiking), he likes to walk forward and pull. It has been so frustrating. Thank you!!

Thanks for the many vdos on dog training zak.U r actually the trainer of my dog

[@racheldeyoung4893]

This was such a great video. It covers so much. I am obsessed with your videos. I have 2 designer doodles puppies under the age of 8 months and we are trying all of your tricks and tips!

[@crystalcampbell5825]

Without your videos me and my new pup Milo would be lost. You help me understand him and his drives. Thank you!

[@LittlePawsTraining]

Hey Crystal ! I would love if you would have a look at my dog training videos which would really help you get positive results and an super obedient dog 🐕🙂

[@rayanna4213]

Another helpful and realistic video, thanks for your help! Keep up the excellent work! Where did you find out all these great training exercises? I’d love to hear about your journey into dog training!

[@giancarlodossantos]

Thanks for getting right into it. Other videos take about 10 mins before they start their lesson. Great video Zak, well done!

[@clauuvm]

Thank you for this video. I rescued a wild dog and have been domesticating her, I'm going to start walks soon and this video gave me a big insight on what to expect from her as well as how much more patience she is going to need from me than a regular dog.
