    That was a good start for Russell. He will get use to the leash. We know he is fine but Cora was worried. She was so happy to have him back by her. She's a good mama. I think she knows he isn't leaving. She is attached to Russell. So is Leske, he's a great dad

  • @barbaradaugherty9626

    When you are leash training, try to keep the leash shorter so Russel has to walk next to you. If he resists, make him sit. When he sits, praise him and then tell him “come”. Be sure to praise him only when he does what you tell him.

    • @michelelindseth8250
      @michelelindseth8250 2 місяці тому +3

      Actually, eventually he should learn to walk beside your left side which is the standard with dog training.
      When he is bigger, his head should be near your left knee.

    • @kerrywills8715
      @kerrywills8715 2 місяці тому +3

      I believe pups walk beside better due to knowing you are the boss and slacker lead better. Just stop and turn if they pull. Only my experience.

    My advise is to concentrate most on recall as a dog mom of a super sized dogs myself. I trained hard when they were young; the age of Russel and now they will stick to me like glue if I request it. I’m 120 pounds, 55 year old woman and my dogs are Great Dane mixed with something (?) but they weigh in over 160 #’s of muscle so I certainly can’t overpower them if they wanted to. It’s just a joy to see a dog that loves to be with their people more than a rabbit or what have you right? Such an exciting time for you all, I’m glad to be along for the ride so thanks for including us! Russell is darling!

  • @ede-jomadden8182
    @ede-jomadden8182 2 місяці тому +25

    Kevin, if you stick with simple commands like, sit, stay, down, come, off, heel, and no, and everybody in your family agrees on the meaning and desired behavior, Russel will learn and not be confused. Keeping him on the lead is probably a good idea in the beginning until he can show you he understands. He's smart, so he'll learn as long as the humans stick with the program. (It's always the humans who mess it up !!). The other command I like is, Leave It -- meaning drop it, or let go. It's a handy command.

    • @robinrobin02

    • @peacockgrandma
      @peacockgrandma 2 місяці тому +16

      We keep the lead short so thet walk in a heal position directly next to you. Its much easier to control them with the lead in top of their neck, not around the bottom. We also keep our instructions to 1 word commands. Russell Come. Russell Heal, Russell down, Tissell sit, Russell fetch, etc.. They don't understand sentences. Just short commands repeated with a reward

      When I leash train puppies I let them drag a leash, ALWAYS supervised. Like when you let Russell and skeeter play. Just drop the leash and let him drag it. They learn pretty quickly that the leash will not hurt them. They also learn some boundaries because they will step on it and pull themselves up short. But that has always worked to take away the fear of the leash. I don’t initially worry about them holding the leash however I never let them chew the leash.

  • @betsyneese4122
    @betsyneese4122 2 місяці тому +13

    Train on an empty stomach! Use his kibble and treat treat treat! Command to sit, treat then put on the leash immediately treat. Keep his attention focused on you while you hold the treat low and walk enticing him to walk towards the treat as you walk, give him the treat after a few steps and repeat repeat repeat. When talking to him hold a treat up to your face and reward when he looks at you. It teaches focus on you and makes him eager to follow commands. Multiple short sessions daily.

    Leash training probably needs to be done for a short time everyday and try not to take the leash off when they're pulling and complaining or they'll pull and complain just to get you to remove it. I can't wait to see Russell meet Mojo! It was fun to watch him play with Skeeter! Good luck with the weather!

She's so strong that if I don't pay attention all of the time, I find myself on the ground! So lots of patience and some treats and he'll be perfect. I love watching Kora. She's a fantastic momma.

    Mojo does just what my big guy does to get me to love on him. My 2 little dogs just jump up and lean on me, and cry if I do not love them. One cat reaches out if I am standing next to her, and one reaches up and digs her paws into my knee, and the other cat will roll down on the floor and wait for me to ruffle her belly. Got to love all the uniqueness of each fur baby and how they act to get loving. Kora is acting like she is guarding her baby and does not like Russell being away from her.

    It's better that Russ gets used of chickens and other animals, so he doesn't attack them. Cora and Leeske eat the chickens, you don't want Russ doing that, you want him protecting all the animals, as he'll be in other pen sometimes. Repetition is all you can do, they'll catch on.

      You have to remember these dogs are guardian dogs and are bread to be independent strong dogs. They are from Turkey where the farmers send them out with their flocks and no humans for months on end. They have to feed themselves etc and protect the flocks. I have one in my home because I use him to protect my Bulldogs from predators where I live in the Rocky Mountains. I have had issues with my Anatolian Shepherd stealing food off my counters but it is my fault if this happens because this has been bread into their genes for a reason. My dog does walk well on a leash but if he gets off the leash he elopes but always returns within 5 minutes to where ever I am.

      No little kid wants to do what they don't want to do. And the world is exciting, and there's so much he'd rather be doing than training on that leash. But the leash training is actually going to make his life better, as a useful working dog. And there will be places he can be taken, well-trained on a leash, that would be difficult or impossible without one. He can walk into a vets office on his own power on a leash. He'll be a better working dog if he is trained that way, and he is born with a need to work for his pack, the people, dogs and other animals. He will feel more competent, then. But like a baby crying, it just sounds terrible when he cries out against it! You have to steel up, and give him what he needs, sometimes, not always what he wants.

    My Anatolian was 183 pounds and he was also leash trained. He loved walking around in town on the leash because he received so much attention. People loved seeing him walk with me and would come out of their homes to say hello, and he loved seeing everyone. People driving in cars would stop because he was such a huge dog. If he had decided to disobey, there would be nothing I would be able to do about it.😁

    Hi Kevin. Russell is growing so fast. He did really well meeting Skeeter. Skeeter can teach him speed and agility. Cora is such a good Momma, watching out for Russell. I hope that you, Rachel, Kyha, Caleb, and all the animals stay safe during the storm. Love to you all. ❤

    I leash train my puppies with my older dogs who are leash trained. If they have a tantrum, I just wait and talk quietly to them 😊.

    I leash trained my retriever by using Pupperoni treats. To start, I would attach the leash to his collar & have him stand next to my right leg. I held a small piece of Pupperoni in my right hand just in front of him where he could smell it. Then as we walked I kept the treat at my side so he could smell it & would follow along. After we walked 10 steps or so, I would stop, praise him & give him the treat; repeat the process. I repeated the training everyday until he would walk on leash at my side without having to give him the treat. RIP Cooper, my best boy.

    I have a Rottweiler and a pit bull ... They both are good on a leash now, but they whined and cried and fought me for a good week and then some!! Still sometimes they try me, but they know I am the boss! You are doing fine and dont you let UA-cam dog trainers tell you how to do it! You know, you have 3 big ones already!!

    I was taught to keep the leash behind the head and not loose so that the pup doesn't have running room...kinda teaching them to heel and stay with you. Making them sit with you, and sit till you disconnect the leash from the collar. Lotsa loving when they do right. Best not to have other dogs around to distract. Having them learn to heel and sit with you will help even more at the Vets office.

    Russel will eventually get use to the leash I think he loved playing with Skitter that will be his little treat to go on a leash. It was so sweet as if he was saying, " help mother I am being pulled by the neck". Its fun watching you feed the animals and all the other interaction. Skitter is very responsive to your commands, very clever sweet little dog. UK.

    Can I also suggest crate training....ONLY because if a dog isn't used to going in a crate, any major vet visit where they have to be caged is extremely stressful for them.
    Leading and cage training is just to make their older life less stressful.
    He is the most adorable puppy. So glad you kept him. He is actually growing like a weed...doubles every night , lol ! His feet have taken off....they are dinner plates now !

    I obedience trained all of my dogs, starting at an early age. I started off with putting the lead on them and letting them drag it, so they could get use to it's weight. Then I started training them always on the left side and with using bait, would lead them forward with it for a short distance, praising them as we walked, then giving them the bait and more praise. I would gradually lengthen the distance and lessen the amount of bait. Yes, they would rebel from time to time, but the positive training worked great with all my dogs. Most were show dogs and went into the ring at 6-8 months of age and always won ribbons. I had 4 Champions, 2 of them took Best of Breed at their first show. You are doing right by early training, but no matter how old a dog is, they can learn.

    We have them walk at our knee and use a small treat that is high value to the pup as immediate reward with a excited YES at the same time as the treat is delivered. So if he’s walking as you want him to hand down with the reward and YES but don’t stop. Continue to walk. Start with short walks and increase your time. He’s a smart pup. He will catch on easily. Train before you feed for best results.

    I have a Great Dane and she still doesn’t like the leash! But she will use it and doesn’t give me too many problems. She’s really good about following commands and she’s food motivated so I can carry food in my pocket and she will do anything I tell her to! My Shihtzu is leash trained and was when I rescued her. I’m a lucky dog mom!😊 Lots of prayers for everyone! Love and blessings from this old Bama girl!❤❤❤

    Skeeter: ”Best day EVER!” He needs a playmate, y’all need to get him a companion. Russell is going to get big and not want to run and play, he knows he is a working dog and Skeeter needs someone he can run and play with. He was clearly enjoying every second of this.
    When starting out we used to training treats, we would put the leash on and go as far as it reached, knelt down, called them and offered the treat and praise, rinse and repeat. After a few times we started doing it without treats and just praised them. Wow, that was a long time ago, lol.
    Please don’t let Russell run around until he has had the daily training, that should be a reward. If Skeeter is leash trained use him as an example, if not keep him in the house until Russell’s training is over for the day. You need to also work on no, stay, down,come and leave it. I know he is a working dog but those commands will be very useful as you can see by the way the other dogs don’t respond much, especially Mojo but he is special. Good luck with the training.
    Stay safe with this weather, I pray you don’t get hit again.
