I’m blown away by your thought process with your dogs. More people should train like you and realize that love works better than military. These dogs are living the dream.
I just wanted to say that I am in the process of adopting a dog from Morocco who has had a rough past and lost a leg. Because of this Channel and your efforts of teaching and showing people the special breed of the Malinois, I was able to bond and have a connection with this dog.
"You can pretend to care. But you can't pretend to show up." Man that is a quote i am gonna have to remember. So relevant to 4 different areas of my life rn.
Thank you for showing us how to train a dog without the use of anything hurtful or discomforting. It means alot to me to see people like you use non-addversive training methods, I want to build a bond with my dog, not hurt them for not doing what I want them to do.
SMFH… right, bro. Im hurting my dog and the bond she has with me is FEAR cause I’ll abuse her more if she doesn’t… I bet he uses all sorts of tools that you wouldnt approve of. My puppy never screamed from using a prong collar, cause I use it correctly.
@@GeloNegron Yeah, you are probably right. Still, even if he does use tools to teach his dogs, I’ll still use his advise while excluding the tools. Also, I didn’t say those things don’t work, they just aren’t necessary in any case. You shouldn’t have to communicate what you want from them with their neck and even if there is a “correct” way to use them, I think it’s better to make the training with your dog as enjoyable as you can make it. I’m not going to tell you what to do, but this is what I believe, besides, trying to fight over this would be pointless, in the end it’s your dog that has to deal with it. So I hope you read this without clicking off too fast 😐👍.
This made is really easy. Its like i dont have to force a 30 minutes session and have it at perfection. I can go off the puppys feel and meet them at their level. Love it!! Great content!!
Great video! And the comment "You can pretend to care. But you can't pretend to show up", build meaningful connections which we lack in our society. I love how affection and kind you are with your dogs. It is refreshing. I have always said if you can not train a dog with respect then you failed.
Thank you. I didn't notice hands shaking. Tho my dad has tremors in his hands from nerve damage I know how difficult it can be watching him deal with it, he has difficulty driving his get bad. Hope alls well. Thank you for sharing your life and your fur baby's with us all. I'm starting training in our new pupper:) she's 7 months old, from her first home she's been through 5 homes. One even abused her. Then we came along, and after a long day of fund raising and gathering every ounce of change we had we hit 200$ and went and got her. She is a Merle pitty or a Catahoula American Stanford shire terrier. We call her remmy short for Remington. She's very head shy because of the abuse. She's attentive, learns fast and just is amazing. I'll try to get videos up as we go. Iam far from a person who shares videos so this will be new for me. Thank you tho. Wish you were closer to idaho we would love to sign up for classes. And her big brother would join to he's a carnecorso 125lbs and a big loveable baby. James, Amber, Remmy
I'm new to the channel, and am so glad to have found it. I am refocusing my life on my love of dogs and retraining to be a clinical behaviourist, and I am hoping to add a working dog to my eventual practise, and when in comes to the ultimate all-round working dog, the Mal is right up there at the top of the list, being able to see a breed specialist in action is both reassuring, and inspiring. Thank you for all of the information!!
I just started working my pup with the left and right heel positions and the center focus position where he's sitting and looking at me. After watching this and your command video I decided to use "Fus, Ro, and Dah" which is a dragon shout from Skyrim. :D It's much more fun and he listened so well! Totally light and day with his focus and his speed of reacting. Thank you for being such an awesome resource for positive training!
The affection you give your dogs is admirable, but the most amazing part is the discipline and commitment you show people is priceless! I have a 1 year old gsp and I have learned so much with your videos! God bless you for your beautiful work…
My in laws just got a 11 week old lab/ cattle mix, and I can’t get enough of your channel man! Been thru lots of channels but you are the best!!!! I wish i could watch a series from you like zak george’s where you start from day zero and show your training from then on. Cheers!!
Seems to me the "fundamentals" could apply to humanity/babies as well. Consistency, listening, caring, loving.....sounds good to me! Really appreciate your hard work and dedication 👏 Texas Nana 🤠 Psalm 91
I'm really grateful for your videos. You're one of my fav. dog trainers to watch and I don't even have a dog. I want a working doberman one day when I am a lot more settled and have time to probably work with them. But watching you gives me an idea to what I need to prepare for. So thank you.
you and your dogs are totally crazy in a good way. You are so impressive with your so well and exactly well trained dogs. Their enthusiasm speaks volume of the good treatment from your hands
I love this. Wholesome training with evidence that these extreme dogs are still extremely controlled and quick with their responses to very many stimuli - all the while, their enjoyment, energy, and willingness to work is taken into account. It’s not often we see top tier performance matched with high levels of empathy for these beautiful companions. This is the most evident way to show you can train your dogs extremely well without being harsh
Attend & show up 💓 Best message ever this one’s a LIFE style or otherwise a loaded bow, without knowing how to use it. She’s not an AKC American breed .. like my previous 4! She’s my 5th GSD & will be my last one because if she lives to be 14, I’ll be 80 ❣️ I got my 1st GS companion in 1983, when I had my 1st child & had 3 more before getting my current girly in 2020. Her papers are in Romanian & unfortunately, I didn’t realize the breeder was a “puppy mill” who wasn’t even the owner of her mother! She’s the smartest dog ever of all & the others were exceptional. I must admit if she’d been my first GSD, I don’t think I would have had 4 more, tho ❤ She’s teaching me so much.
So, I see that in a way that your last dog is a little bit of a 'tough cookie'😉. (My 9th dog in life is difficult dog-to-dog reactive DA male. And after a years of work and struggle I can tell that I needed that dog in my life. Because, he forsed me to learn and learn and learn. And to day, after 6,5 years, I am better dog owner and guardian than ever before.) Last 13 years I have multiple breed dog pack of 2-3 dogs. My prefered breeds are Belgian/Duch/German shepards; Mastiffs, Boxers and Dogo argentinos... And if the last one was the 1st one I am not sure that I will ever have another dog...
This is so helpful. My rottweiler passed away 4 years ago. I had him trained at a K-9 facility. I'm getting me a puppy in March and I'm going to train her myself this time. I also want to get her registered as a service dog. Your videos are awesome and will help me. Thank you so much ❤️
For me, absolutely not late. It may take longer and or different approaches to get yo the points you want, but contrary to what I was told in the past, older dogs do keep learning. My Chihuahua and my Yorkie are 12 and 13, and they still come up with new things. I rehomed and trained adult dogs, with success. Again, not the same as puppies, but they can learn a ton.
I’ve watched many of your videos. My wife I have had what we call super breeds for many years. I have seen many trainers in the states and in Europe, but we think your the best we have ever seen. Our dogs have always been treated with respect, love and routine. I think your viewers are probably like us. We would love to know more about you and how you developed your passion. We only wish you and your dogs Continued success.
You are an amazing trainer. You stand out from the other trainers because your love for your dogs is always front and center. I have a 6 mo old GSD, training for medical alert service work. A trainer recently told me to "stop with the baby voice". I talk to my Zeusie-Freusi-Puh-Puh-Puppy all day. 🥰He is always by my side, and he is my best buddy. We bring our play and love for each other to training. I love it that you incorporate play as well.
Nice to see that you listen to your dog and understand that she is doing her best, even though she got the command wrong due to needing a rest. Have subscribed and liked. Bung her a treat please.
Absolutely love this. Working dogs clearly love their jobs. This dog is living his very best life. And the beauty of training with positive reinforcement... The dog is working completely voluntarily and happily. Just proof that positive reinforcement can work to create a dog with AMAZING obedience! None of that dominance bullshit
I'll be honest.. I was going to end my subscription to the Channel, until THIS video! I could be wrong, but most of the other videos were showing off the dogs and what they can do, which is certainly impressive, but without teaching us HOW to achieve any of it! This video is totally DIFFERENT! LOTS of actual instruction that I think is VERY helpful and usable! I will be picking up a working line Doberman mid December at 8 weeks of age and this video is something I will be referring back to over and over!!! THIS is what I hope to see more of here, the HOW to do it! Thank you so much for this video! I don't know, maybe there is an online pay subscription for your training? Not sure. But THIS video was the BOMB!!!
Your training methods are unbelievable. I watch tons of training videos. I am a Rottweiler owners and I have never seen a dog that stops attacking so quickly. Cops and military trails, they don’t release is quickly Alridge. I wish I lived near you but I am in Canada
Super super training Hand in hand with so much love for the animal thats why you are so successful.... Stunning trainer working with a stunning dog.. .❤❤
PLEASE MAKE MORE!!! I AM IN THE PROCESS OF ADOPTING A MALINOIS AND WANT TO LEARN HOW TO TEACH THEM THE PROPER COMMANDS AND HOW TO BE RESPONSIVE JUST AS YOURS ARE
6:31 January 3,2024. Thank You Sir. I've watched several of your videos. Always inspiring. Very happy to have found this more basic training video which is really what I need to do more of first.😀
This guy is awesome! I would love to see if your dogs would react to commands from your voice while you're not around like maybe a recorder or yelling them from a distance... possible new video??? Who knows!!
You are amazing with your dogs!! Thank you for the advice on training!!I would love to see more training videos!! You and your dogs are AMAZING to watch.
Man thank you, this was exactly what i was looking for . Im getting a pup from a really ethical younger breeder in the neighboring state soon. Shes a working dog, a pure BBS Sheppard, shes got some know how for therepy work. And thats what i wanna eventually hone in on. Thank you for this! I feel like so many old myths and peoples "advice" just got busted on the spot . Im so excited to continue my research and journey😊
Thank you so much for making these concise training videos, my maligator Apollo has adapted very quickly to the short sessions we have, appreciate all the hard work 🙏
Great video - really enjoyed your explanations and examples and your style of delivery. Quite a quote to start the video with as well, I had to stop playback to go and add it to my book of quotes!
Hi, my dog is food driven when we are inside home; he knows basic commands and does "obey" while we are inside; but as soon as we walk past the door, he will ignore food and toys and he will only want to explore and search for preys... any suggestion on how to obtain his attention when we are outside?
Well I think you have to try to teach him outside the home because there many distractions and if you can train your puppy outside with the distractions then he's gonna do every command no problem
My suggestion: patience. Take a single step outeside the door and train. Once that is working, take ten steps outeside the door and repeat. If you have a friend with a dog then have him approach until the dog becomes reactive, then stop and wait till he is paying attention to you again. Continue training. The let the dog come closer. This is the principle with everything...
@crash9706 I don’t. He’s nearly 5 and we keep exercising so he has a little bit improved, but he’s a lot prey-driven so he won’t hear anything as long as he sees an animal. But we keep trying
I love watching a trainer even one who’s as intense as you show such a deep affection. That’s someone who trains but remembers that’s an intelligent dog and family member.
Thank you for this free info! Trained horses but this will be my first dog. Different dynamic by learning to read the animal is one of the biggest in training. Your pop in beautiful by the way!
I love watching the way you interact with your dogs!!!!! And I love your training tips! I WISH I could implement any of them with the only dog in my life, but alas, he belongs to some relatives of mine who... while they aren't BAD owners, they aren't great either. They mean well. They think they have done pretty much everything right, and CERTAINLY to the best of their ability. And he's a GREAT dog, and pretty well behaved in general. I love him so much, and I am never ever nervous around him. He is single-handedly (pawedly?) responsible for making me stop being afraid of dogs. ...But there are also a lot of things I wish I could work on with him. Like not pulling on his leash, not barking at other dogs (sure, he only wants to say hi, and play; but people who don't KNOW him won't know that!!!) when we're walking. Or to KNOW that if he should happen to get loose, he WILL come instantly when I call. I wish I could - if nothing else - convince my relatives that they not only CAN do better, but that they NEED to put in more effort. But they are deaf when it comes to anything like that. And I don't meet him every day, or even every week, so when I watch him, while he and I have a great time together, and I try to use all the advice I see from people like you.... That's once in a while. Not regularly. I know that I can't really do anything with him that will give long-term results. He's a 4-year-old Icelandic sheepdog, and he is a bright guy. He is so smart, and food motivated, and energetic, and I feel like it would be so... well, easy might be the wrong word? But like. I feel like he would be quite easy, and very rewarding, to train. I just know that I don't meet him often enough to really have an impact, and his owners really don't do enough. But they think they do.
This is the ultimate video new owners should watch. Can I ask, what is your #1 go to for treats while training/working, more so like what size and texture? I know its whatever the dog loves, but what is easiest to keep there nose buried in your hand in your opinion?
You are an awesome trainer and dog owner. It is obvious you love your dogs as much as they love you. Thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing your knowledge with us :-)
Would you do a video where you talk about your commands? They have a very unusual sound, distinct, which is why I expect to use them. I couldn't find a video where you address them, but I'm sure many subscribers are equally curious.
Can you do a video for crate and potty training puppy’s? Starting at like 8 weeks maybe. I just got a pit bull terrier mix he is very excited but I’ve never had to train a puppy this young and I’m not sure the best steps to take to get the basics down with him before we do more training.
great video as per usual... as for shaking hands, taking 1-2 cloves daily can help a lot in order to calm it down... As well as cleaning the body... hope this helps!
You are an amazing person and trainer. May I ask for your advice please? What's your advice for training and training adjustments when female dogs are about to or are in their first heat. Struggling a bit because I only had male dogs in the last 10 years. Thanks!
I have been to Agadir, Morocco since 2010 many times by sailboat. Their altitude toward dogs is slowly changing, in large cities and among the young people. I have always had dogs on board with me when sailing/crossing oceans, as many as 4, 2 of them Dobermans. The Moroccans are very friendly, but one has to deal with their customs about animals. They are very peaceful and always seem to be in good humor. They are not cruel to animals, just ignorant, very similar to Mexico except I saw intentional cruelty in Mexico. Sorry rambling. I adopted/rescued/bought a 3 month female Belgian Malinois at of all places a Souk in a newly established pet store in Agadir in July 2019. She was healthy, but extremely frightened. I had a Doberman and a rescue dog from Mexico still on board at the time. She is the most intelligent breed I have ever had, but has fear issues (inherited I think) of people and anything with wheels on it. Modern Malinois, thank you, your training videos are a great help. I wish I knew back in 2019 what I have since learned about dog training/shaping. I made mistakes in the area of my pups fears!
Amazing content again. Question: my 1 year old Swiss White Shepherd isn’t that food motivated. She accepts treats indoors, but outdoors with distractions she doesn’t show interest. No matter how high value of treats I offer. We tried switching to training with a tug toy, but without results too. Do you have a solution for that?
This is awesome. I have a Sheltie puppy that I'm trying to train and I want to teach him to lure and heel. He's a fast leaner and our training sessions are short but productive. It's a bit of a challenge to get him to move backwards though. Most of the time he want to swing his rear out and pivot around to face me if I step back. Any advise?
When my pup did the same , I did a few sessions standing beside a wall...with dog between me and the wall. She picked up pretty quickly what I wanted and thenbwe moved back to training in an open space.
This is how kindergarten classes should be taught across North America. One year of training like this for a kid, they're going to spend the rest of their school years attentive. I threw away my opportunity to learn while I was young in school, because I was always loud and mouthy, disrupting the class because there was no punishment. Nowadays the only requirement to graduate is to show up to class. You could be failing every subject but they will still pass you as long as you are there trying.
Wow man, love the vids, caught you on shorts and here I am😊! I do have a question if you get a chance to interact. Is it ever too late to start the training on this level? And is there a chance to overcome certain fears?(strong sounds, big trucks etc…) he was adopted from a shelter at the third month, and here we are more than a year later still scared of big trucks/motorcycles, etc.. would love to get that kind of control but I’m a bit skeptical of him listening when those distractions arrive. Thanks in advance.
Same questions as you. Also a shelter doggo, previous owners broke her front paw into pieces. Still scared of certain things, but getting there slowly. She's now estimated to be a year old next week.
I’d love to use food as reward for training however I have a breed prone to bloat (Great Dane). I get concerned even when feeding treats and doing more dynamic training like recall. However I want to engage my dog with more “working breed” training. Any suggestions or ideas?
Play tug with your dog. You might have to teach him to love it first. Once a dog enjoys playing you can train using the toy/tug as the primary reinforcer instead of food. Depending on the dog many will be much much more driven by the toy as reward over food
At what age the puppy should be train regardless of the breed and the large dog need a big or huge space to run to walk to play thank you for sharing watching from Philippines 🇵🇭 God Bless
I’m blown away by your thought process with your dogs. More people should train like you and realize that love works better than military. These dogs are living the dream.
I just wanted to say that I am in the process of adopting a dog from Morocco who has had a rough past and lost a leg. Because of this Channel and your efforts of teaching and showing people the special breed of the Malinois, I was able to bond and have a connection with this dog.
Omg Morocco! First time I see someone mentionning my country in youtube comments 😄
Hope it goes well
That’s so awesome! 🥉 to comment wins boops given to Alrick from you!
@@irako- I've heard Morocco is great, I really want to go there some time.
Great job👍

6:31 January 3,2024. Thank You Sir. I've watched several of your videos. Always inspiring. Very happy to have found this more basic training video which is really what I need to do more of first.😀
This guy is awesome! I would love to see if your dogs would react to commands from your voice while you're not around like maybe a recorder or yelling them from a distance... possible new video??? Who knows!!
This is one of the best dog training videos ever!
You are amazing with your dogs!!
Thank you for the advice on training!!I would love to see more training videos!!
You and your dogs are AMAZING to watch.
Love how well you speak. I learn so much from these videos. Love all the knowledge you share.
Man thank you, this was exactly what i was looking for . Im getting a pup from a really ethical younger breeder in the neighboring state soon. Shes a working dog, a pure BBS Sheppard, shes got some know how for therepy work. And thats what i wanna eventually hone in on. Thank you for this! I feel like so many old myths and peoples "advice" just got busted on the spot . Im so excited to continue my research and journey😊
This is amazing content. Thank you so much. Your relationship with your dog is very inspiring and reassuring. Thank you.
Thank you so much for making these concise training videos, my maligator Apollo has adapted very quickly to the short sessions we have, appreciate all the hard work 🙏
Great video - really enjoyed your explanations and examples and your style of delivery. Quite a quote to start the video with as well, I had to stop playback to go and add it to my book of quotes!
Love this channel.... Definitely 1 of the best here that explains things clearly and very easy to understand,,,, keep em coming 💯%
Hi, my dog is food driven when we are inside home; he knows basic commands and does "obey" while we are inside; but as soon as we walk past the door, he will ignore food and toys and he will only want to explore and search for preys... any suggestion on how to obtain his attention when we are outside?
Mine too
Well I think you have to try to teach him outside the home because there many distractions and if you can train your puppy outside with the distractions then he's gonna do every command no problem
My suggestion: patience. Take a single step outeside the door and train. Once that is working, take ten steps outeside the door and repeat. If you have a friend with a dog then have him approach until the dog becomes reactive, then stop and wait till he is paying attention to you again. Continue training. The let the dog come closer. This is the principle with everything...
Mine as well. Have you figured a good way ?
@crash9706 I don’t. He’s nearly 5 and we keep exercising so he has a little bit improved, but he’s a lot prey-driven so he won’t hear anything as long as he sees an animal. But we keep trying
Youre a friggin magician.
Thanks for the inspiration
Your lessons are just complete 💯✅
Thanks for the inspiration 😊☺️
I love watching a trainer even one who’s as intense as you show such a deep affection. That’s someone who trains but remembers that’s an intelligent dog and family member.
Thank you for this free info! Trained horses but this will be my first dog. Different dynamic by learning to read the animal is one of the biggest in training. Your pop in beautiful by the way!
I love watching the way you interact with your dogs!!!!!
And I love your training tips!
I WISH I could implement any of them with the only dog in my life, but alas, he belongs to some relatives of mine who... while they aren't BAD owners, they aren't great either. They mean well. They think they have done pretty much everything right, and CERTAINLY to the best of their ability.
And he's a GREAT dog, and pretty well behaved in general. I love him so much, and I am never ever nervous around him. He is single-handedly (pawedly?) responsible for making me stop being afraid of dogs.
...But there are also a lot of things I wish I could work on with him. Like not pulling on his leash, not barking at other dogs (sure, he only wants to say hi, and play; but people who don't KNOW him won't know that!!!) when we're walking. Or to KNOW that if he should happen to get loose, he WILL come instantly when I call.
I wish I could - if nothing else - convince my relatives that they not only CAN do better, but that they NEED to put in more effort.
But they are deaf when it comes to anything like that. And I don't meet him every day, or even every week, so when I watch him, while he and I have a great time together, and I try to use all the advice I see from people like you.... That's once in a while. Not regularly. I know that I can't really do anything with him that will give long-term results.
He's a 4-year-old Icelandic sheepdog, and he is a bright guy. He is so smart, and food motivated, and energetic, and I feel like it would be so... well, easy might be the wrong word? But like. I feel like he would be quite easy, and very rewarding, to train. I just know that I don't meet him often enough to really have an impact, and his owners really don't do enough. But they think they do.
Amazing ,thanks what time of food can I use for training
I'm so happy and encouraged after watching this first video ❤
From Asia
U r a gem
Tq for yr kind sharingv
Wow you are a wonderful teacher!!!! Thank u for teaching me ❤😊❤🎉
This is the ultimate video new owners should watch. Can I ask, what is your #1 go to for treats while training/working, more so like what size and texture? I know its whatever the dog loves, but what is easiest to keep there nose buried in your hand in your opinion?
another dogs kibble works great
You are an awesome trainer and dog owner. It is obvious you love your dogs as much as they love you. Thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing your knowledge with us :-)
Man. I just found your channel and I love your content!
Hi, amazing work for sure! I'm just curious about technicalities. What are the benefits of using lures for training vs shaping behavior?
Would you do a video where you talk about your commands? They have a very unusual sound, distinct, which is why I expect to use them. I couldn't find a video where you address them, but I'm sure many subscribers are equally curious.
most of the commands are german, since people here dont speak german and cant command YOUR dog against your wishes or confuse them
Your dog is insanely fast. Beautiful
It's cause she's now a mama Thang! ❤!
Awesome, I love seeing you working with these dogs, it's amazing.
Can you do a video for crate and potty training puppy’s? Starting at like 8 weeks maybe. I just got a pit bull terrier mix he is very excited but I’ve never had to train a puppy this young and I’m not sure the best steps to take to get the basics down with him before we do more training.
I love your videos and the level of skill exhibited. Absolutely amazing! ❤
Hey dude your awesome , love how you can read a dog. Good for you I’m learning lots with you.
Another great video.
Thank you.
After watching just few videos people should be able to do lot with their puppy's!!!
I'm a trainer but this guy is my roll model
Role
Awesome! I can watch this video over and over all day😍 wow this is so beautiful. Big ups bruh🙌🖐️
great video as per usual... as for shaking hands, taking 1-2 cloves daily can help a lot in order to calm it down... As well as cleaning the body... hope this helps!
You are an amazing person and trainer. May I ask for your advice please? What's your advice for training and training adjustments when female dogs are about to or are in their first heat. Struggling a bit because I only had male dogs in the last 10 years. Thanks!
I have neurological stuff, too. Thanks for addressing that. And thanks for the video.
have a malinois, was a work dog. listens to simple commands but it would be amazing to see her act like yours
What language or command list do you have? Great channel, thanks
Attend & show up. Also great advice for any job.
I have been to Agadir, Morocco since 2010 many times by sailboat. Their altitude toward dogs is slowly changing, in large cities and among the young people. I have always had dogs on board with me when sailing/crossing oceans, as many as 4, 2 of them Dobermans. The Moroccans are very friendly, but one has to deal with their customs about animals. They are very peaceful and always seem to be in good humor. They are not cruel to animals, just ignorant, very similar to Mexico except I saw intentional cruelty in Mexico. Sorry rambling. I adopted/rescued/bought a 3 month female Belgian Malinois at of all places a Souk in a newly established pet store in Agadir in July 2019. She was healthy, but extremely frightened. I had a Doberman and a rescue dog from Mexico still on board at the time. She is the most intelligent breed I have ever had, but has fear issues (inherited I think) of people and anything with wheels on it. Modern Malinois, thank you, your training videos are a great help. I wish I knew back in 2019 what I have since learned about dog training/shaping. I made mistakes in the area of my pups fears!
Great video ❤❤
I love your vids, amazing bonding, amazing technique, amazing dogs! 👏
I love your videos. Are you located in the US? Do you do private trainings?
Thank you for these vids Matt. I want to learn from you and these teaching vids are sooooo helpful!!
Thanks pick up my puppy tomorrow you've got me looking forward to training 😄
amazing, and not just your ability to train dogs. Thank you
Amazing content again.
Question: my 1 year old Swiss White Shepherd isn’t that food motivated. She accepts treats indoors, but outdoors with distractions she doesn’t show interest. No matter how high value of treats I offer. We tried switching to training with a tug toy, but without results too. Do you have a solution for that?
Just found you. Now following 👍. Thank you
Sooo awesome, phantastic.
And great is, you love your Dog❤
This is awesome. I have a Sheltie puppy that I'm trying to train and I want to teach him to lure and heel. He's a fast leaner and our training sessions are short but productive. It's a bit of a challenge to get him to move backwards though. Most of the time he want to swing his rear out and pivot around to face me if I step back. Any advise?
When my pup did the same , I did a few sessions standing beside a wall...with dog between me and the wall. She picked up pretty quickly what I wanted and thenbwe moved back to training in an open space.
@@pamanderson1417 that’s a really good idea. I’ll give it shot today and see what happens.
This is how kindergarten classes should be taught across North America. One year of training like this for a kid, they're going to spend the rest of their school years attentive. I threw away my opportunity to learn while I was young in school, because I was always loud and mouthy, disrupting the class because there was no punishment. Nowadays the only requirement to graduate is to show up to class. You could be failing every subject but they will still pass you as long as you are there trying.
Love to see your videos. Thank you!
It definitely needs dedication. I look forward to your videos. Do you let your dog sleep in your room or on your bed?
I’ve discovered that my dog likes to learn tricks. He gets a little flustered at a new trick, but he picks it up
Absolutely brilliant. very professional development skills. Top dog ✌❤
W O W !!! that is purely amazing..
i train hunting dogs (setters) but that is on a whoooooooooole other level. and the dog seems so happy :)
Great info as usual because you are just great! 👏🏻
Thats so amazing. I cant wait to put in the work to have a master dog
I always wondered how you got your head so shiny😂 3:09
As always, a great training video. 👏
Wow man, love the vids, caught you on shorts and here I am😊! I do have a question if you get a chance to interact.
Is it ever too late to start the training on this level? And is there a chance to overcome certain fears?(strong sounds, big trucks etc…) he was adopted from a shelter at the third month, and here we are more than a year later still scared of big trucks/motorcycles, etc.. would love to get that kind of control but I’m a bit skeptical of him listening when those distractions arrive. Thanks in advance.
Same questions as you. Also a shelter doggo, previous owners broke her front paw into pieces. Still scared of certain things, but getting there slowly. She's now estimated to be a year old next week.
Amazing Dogs! I always think your videos are sped up, I have to look back at you to reconfirm.
I’d love to use food as reward for training however I have a breed prone to bloat (Great Dane). I get concerned even when feeding treats and doing more dynamic training like recall. However I want to engage my dog with more “working breed” training. Any suggestions or ideas?
Play tug with your dog. You might have to teach him to love it first. Once a dog enjoys playing you can train using the toy/tug as the primary reinforcer instead of food. Depending on the dog many will be much much more driven by the toy as reward over food
@@thehomme great suggestion, thank you!
What breed is that beautiful dog?
At what age the puppy should be train regardless of the breed and the large dog need a big or huge space to run to walk to play thank you for sharing watching from Philippines 🇵🇭 God Bless
