Hi, I have a 4 month old Vizsla girl but worry about using a slip lead because of her throat, she’s young and growing etc…. Would you say this is ok to use?

damn, its so good, speechless - respect bro

Hi Ben. To find a good trainer, are there any official qualifications to look out for ? I love your methods of teaching BTW, you make it so understandable and that’s what is needed as the owners need to understand as much as the dogs do.

Can you do a day in the life video

I'd love to see you take this a bit further and outline how you'd find a good dog trainer. There are so, so many bad ones out there and it feels like the only way to identify those is when they come to your house and waste your time and money.

Love your videos!

So good man! As always. Thank you thank you!

Grateful for the pace and level of explanation you include in your videos. I’m not new to dog ownership but still find that through watching your videos, there’s always some little snippet I get from you that is so on point and develops my progress with my Staffordshire terrier who can pick and choose when she wants to listen. She’s 18mths old. Thank you, wishing you all the success.

This makes so much sense! Thank you. Will try this with my Cavapoo.

Great advice thank you. My 2 months old is always bitting the leash. What can I do 😓.

What is that slip lead exactly please (what makes)? I’ve got one but it’s a bit thicker and it keeps slipping down my dog’s neck.

Love your videos. I have a male Jack Russell. I use a harness with lead on the chest loop as he is driven to get to where he wants to go. Anything around his neck leads to choking. Which makes me feel bad. Any advice on using the harness. I also walk with another dog. Who is much older. Who doesn’t pull. Thank you.

Calm concise delivery of a simple yet tricky part of dog training. My 4month labradoodle is amazing on lead using your introduction techniques to equipment (slip lead). Cheers🫡

I love your accent. Thanks for your info! Very helpful.

Got my ACME whistle yesterday. My dog has never been so scared. He tucked his tail between his legs and hid behind the couch. It took him a good 30 minutes to come to me. Its being sent back tomorrow

You have a special gift to understand dogs

You are so right!!!

Lots of cat's and foxes out at night.

thank you for making this video! I've found all the different options for tools to be overwhelming. I've had many people recommend gentle leaders/halti's, but I think I must keep drilling the basics you mentioned to do with leash pressure regardless of the tool.

I have a rescue dog who is so scared of lorries or buses, or passing work sites with industrial machine noises, she will just sit down on the pavement and not move! She won't take treats to get her to move... How do I get her to move!!

Love your vibes in your channel. you sure gave me some great advice already ! Would like to know what you would do with a young bordercollie that is super focussed on cars. specially the ones that comes towards us. Or birds in a field. If she sees those and incoming cars my BC lost all focus on me. Can even stand in front of her like right in her face, she wont even look up to me for one second. The moment the birds/cars are gone, she's snaps out of it and looks up again. Love her and love training her. just that is a super struggle still and dont know how to improve that as well as her AND me. Anyway, thanks for putting your vidoes here man !!!

My dogs recall is solid when no other dogs are about I can have him off lead it’s just when there’s dogs around he will run over there ?

Thanks for another helpful cue giver tips clip. 10/10 sometimes feels like an impossible goal in very high distraction areas. Epsilon loves a good sniffari and as a breed bred for rat and rodent hunting that is not surprising. Have you ever worked with the prey drive of a Tenterfield Terrier? I love my little Eps but some days her irrepressible enthusiasm for a good sniff can exhaust her handler. I find your caring advice and presentations useful and appreciated. 🐾

Thank you. Clear and useful cue giver advice. Eps light long lead is a thin, rock climber, static rope. It has lasted well. We are still practising on making handler more exciting and rewarding than great sniffs. We didn't meet till 7 months and this part of our journey has been a lot of handler mistakes and learning. Your clips are appreciated. 😎🐾

Well said! Are they resting on a table? They're basically puppy piling back there. Rather interesting, I've had an easier time introducing new dogs if they're male, although yeah it's often that males start sizing each other up when they meet, even if they are following my rules. It's the females I have had to be extra careful with regarding their interactions with other female dogs, especially if they're the same size. I don't love intervening if two females pick a fight with each other. Males are a bit easier to stop. They're not aiming to inflict much harm. It's usually more noise than something truly serious. Those were my live and learn moments from ages ago. I do not let dogs get into any situation to trigger a fight. I completely get what you're talking about here. Young male dogs can have a tendency towards being goofs. They do take longer to mature. Females can often leap ahead faster with training, and they tend to remain very non-distracted when working. Your plan of action to develop these dogs is ideal. Good observations and advice.

Love the way you think, love the way you present information. It just makes sense to people like me. Thanks Ben, Stay Up! Your time is coming 💯

Canine males, like human males, have a little longer adolescence, are a little slower to develop bladder control, and are often quite a bit larger than their female equivalent. That creates a lot of frustration for owners (and some parents…) during the 6-18 month adolescent period. OTOH, adult male dogs are often cuddlier while the females are a little more independent. A lot of performance competitors prefer males because once they’ve matured, they’re more trainer focused. I like them both!

I have always owned/kept male dogs from my litters, and I've found they are easily trained but there is a stubbornness in them that can be present as late as 2-3 years old, i put this down to them being adolescent boys and i remember my adolescence so i give them a bit of leeway lol.

A true dog person/trainer would never have to use a prong collar they are inhumane and there is no excuse to use one

why would you get a male dog if you don't get along with male dogs it doesn't make sence

i love all dogs but i prefer to have female dogs than male dogs because male dogs are more work

Hello do you do social classes

I'm sitting here smiling because what you're talking about reminds me of when I used to work in an institution where young men were taken when they, among other things, had a problem with the word "No", being told no, that is. They had an impulse control of a toddler and that got them into trouble. That in combination with that they often were quite tall and carried around a bunch of muscles, didn't do them any favours when they were trying to interact with other people. For some reason they always ended up with me. The other staff members tried to stay away from them as much as they possibly could. I liked them and I think they could tell. What they didn't fully understand was that people could find them scary (they were quite scared themselves). I remember one incident when one of "my" boys wanted his money. They were kept in a locked cupboard since they couldn't handle money. They'd use all their money and when they didn't have any money left, to get cigarrettes for instance, they tried to force others to give them money. Like I said they didn't like the word no, so this young man started hitting me in the belly, not hard at all just to give some weight to his words. I told him "Stop hitting me, you frighten me!" He loked at me, startled, "Are you afraid of me? That's ridiculous!" Young male dogs and young males have a lot in common 😂

By 2yr old male retriever sits or stands stock still instead of passing another dog on a lead. He isn't aggressive and it's my fault as he now expects to be able to say hi to every dog we meet. I'd like a break down of how to work through this problem.

I noticed when looking to adopt that a lot of dogs were getting given up on too. I can really relate to your posts and guidance and I have always worked on trying to be the best that I can for my boy. I see so many people just letting their dogs run towards other people and their dogs.

Very interesting and well put as always.

Charges need to be heavier! That’s how u protect children! Preventatively!speaking!

Underrated for sure. Trust the process, you’ll blow up on YT in no time. Just need the algorithm to do its job. Glad I was here early 🙌🏼

Bro, yoy the best!Can you show us now how to manage our dog to bring back the ball?My puppy is 6 months old, runs like crazy when I throw a ball, comes back at me (50% of the time stops ik front of me, 50% of the time, stops way too far from me) and just lay then on the ground without opening her mouth.Then after a few minutes,she leaves the ball and goes away. Its very frustrating because I cant manage her to play that simple game properly 😂😂😂😅😢

OK, I will try that. I will let you know. Thank you again. Have a wonderful holiday.

I’ve also tried the two identical toys and He won’t let go of the one in his mouth for the second one. He’s a hard dog let me tell you and I’ve tried sitting there for over half hour and I just can’t do more than a half an hour.

This works for most dogs, but not mine unfortunately he won’t let go no matter what and I could play dead and act like I am a tree and he still won’t let go

Another one if I just let him have his ball and start doing something in the kitchen he will naturally bring and drop the ball because he must really want to play.

Following in hopes of more Vizsla Content

Have 2 of the same toy and throw the other one as soon as they drop it. Play tug of war (and let them win) before throwing the toy to teach them that the fun comes from you, not from the toy... build engagement and reward interaction

My 6month weim responds great to a whistle cheers! It's been a bit of a game changer.

😁👍

My dog is a 3yo rescue gsd mix and I’ve worked with another older european street dog aswell and this is quality advice especially for stressed dogs. You have to manoeuvre between taking the dog’s focus on and off of yourself consistently to manage their stress levels and let them do their needs, decompress and stay collected and trusting of you in higher demand situations. First week with my dog she had her attention 99% on me at all times to the point she didn’t pee or poo because she was not used to being on lead and attached to a person. Encouraging her to sniff around and move independently is absolutely crucial at that point. When she’s gotten more trust in me and confidence in herself it’s time to switch to controlling the sniffing and movement in order to calm down after high excitement. Leaving the dog park after play (with me) for example she will be close to me because “reading the news” in that state is making her more stressed and less able to handle new situations that arise, play for a stressed dog is just as exciting and fun as it is intimidating a lot of the time. Removing factors for her to worry about and being clear that she only needs to consider what I’m doing (= walking forward) speeds up that decompression exponentially! It’s amazing what this does for adult stressed dogs.

Absolutely! This is a great video. great job.

My 15-month Cockapoo has never once been able to settle out of the crate. He goes on daily heel walks, does nose work, plays tug, and knows place, sit, down and stay. He will just not sooth out of his crate.
