    GSD’s are amazing dogs, but you really have to put in the work. They are strong, intense and intelligent. All awesome characteristics if they are working for you, but if they are working against you, it can be really difficult.
    I have a WGWL GSD and she taught me so much. She was a terror in her younger days 😵‍💫, but she is absolutely my best buddy and protector and I don’t think I’d ever be without one ♥️♥️♥️♥️
    PS I highly recommend scent detection training, obedience training, or trick training with a working breed like this. It’s not usually physical energy they need to expend, but mental.

      I totally agree with mentally stimulating working breeds! My GSD is 10 months and he still has some problems but with these videos and Beckman's it helps immensely!
      I can't wait because when I save up some money for some more dog training (my dad makes me pay half of everything for my dog and cat) because we're going to do Scent Training, Recall, and finally hir Good Citizen Certificate! I cannot wait!!

    Having moments like these, are exactly why I'm a trainer. 🥲 when the owner has that lightbulb moment, and the dogs enthusiasm for their new learned structure sync up. It only gets better from there way to go Gunner. Way to go to his human too keep it up! 🥰
    And way to go Tom. Outstanding content as usual 👏

      What’s the best way to become a trainer? Courses? I volunteer at a shelter and I so want to help train some of our dogs with behaviors that can put them on death row like kennel stress and leash reactivity

    • @randalsaul6612
      @randalsaul6612 3 роки тому +3

      @@NissrineA74 there are courses on line but what I did and would suggest is to find a balance trainer that has a dog training school and a program where you can shadow them for months. The program that I took was year, once a week sessions. You need hands on training to perfect your skill. Watching videos of different trainers helps your see multiple methods. Not one method works for all dogs and volunteering is a great way to get hands on training.
      Good luck. Nothing feels better than saving a dog from being euthanasia
      and remember that there are
      NO BAD DOGS

    I had same experience with my shepherd before you tube. Went to the store and bought a prong collar just for the leverage on walks. Changed everything very quickly. Best decision I ever made. I don't have the pooch but I still have the prong collar 25 years later.

    Great video, thank you Tom! I'm 65 and a lightweight. I have a 80 lb male german shepherd rescue. I empathise with this lady. I too had given up walks as he was dragging me around and reactive to dogs and people. I was even pulled so badly one day that I ended up face down on the pavement. The UK is so anti prong collars and e collars it's scary how useful tools used in the right way are being taken away from us. My boy understands all the commands but just I have no control when he is out and about. I'm off to buy a prong collar now! Thanks

    Totally agree ! 👍 I am a 65 yeard old man with nine pack dogs all breeds ages and sizes. About an hour I was walking one of thise dogs. She is a two yeard old kind of pink nose pitbulI (daughter of a street mother). I live in a México small town and the side walks eare very extremly thin so I have a dizzy and lost my step falling down to the street. I dont feel any pain but I was so confused cause I lost the leash but when I turn back around my eyes I saw her sit in the side walk with. Men it was a very beautiful moment for me. I learned a lot about engagement and confidence because of your vids wich I am so gratefull with you, your team and your comunity. Hugs from México 🙏🐾🫂

I’ve had a set back my female kelpie was attacked by a Rottweiler and now he has become protective, but slowly he is getting better but I can have him around Rottweiler‘s except this female. He is my best friend and is so well behaved. My female kelpie actually goes into my mother work ( age care ) and hang out with the residence she is 14months and absolutely loves people. You have helped me so much with your videos thank you so much. 💜💜

    I have DDR working line German Shepherd and I praise this owner for her ability to learn and adapt to her dog. She did wonderful! German Shepherds and especially working lines need so many extra commands to understand how to behave. They need to have a job to become balanced dogs. My puppy has taught me so much since I got her last summer. I have this channel and Beckmans channel to thank for the amazing pup that I have been able to raise!❤️ give your dog a job!! They will be happier in the long run.

  • @Robbie28
    @Robbie28 3 роки тому +12

    Some people are quick to say a prong collar is mean or hurtful to the dog. The way i look at it is, normally, once dog has had a few corrections, or even less, they lean so the collar is just "insurance" at that point.In early 2000's, our 10 year old daughter could walk our male rottie anywhere with no issues. And he outweighed her by probably close to 50lbs. We see it like this, whats meaner, a prong collar that you might have to use in order to correct the dog and prevent something terrible from happening, or waiting till the unthinkable happens and he/she is now in a situation where he/she could possibly lose their life? Ill take the prong collar anytime. If used properly, its a very very valuable tool

      It doesn’t cause harm to the dog anyway, Tom’s explained that in other videos. The position, the distribution of pressure, and the thickness of fur all mean there’s no pain for the dog.

    Oh my God I adopted a German Shepherd named Gunner. He was extremely antisocial. I took him into the woods and released him. I then climbed up a tree and called his name. He went crazy looking for me. Now he sleeps on the floor next to my bed. I taught him American Sign Language and I use a dog whistle. He understands when I say Left, right, forward, stop, sit, heel and shield etc.
    Now he shields me automatically when people come close to me.

    Heel was my magic!! Once I realized how important that was and got it on the ecollar things changed. Also I was just quicker on correcting with ecollar than with any collar

      I worked with a tamaskan x CsV wolfdog that looked a lot like him, taller though, they have mostly GSD in them. There are some breeders working to produce correctly structured GSD now, thank goodness.

      @@myriaml173 it is the original color of a working line German shepherd, if you flip the hair up they're brown underneath every hair has 2 colors but for beauty shows their no good as i think they are much prettier like this then the all known black and brown color show lines that's the same thing with their straight back as for working they have to be natural straight and for showline they have bread this unnatural standing position which give more chances on hip dysplasia

    If you haven’t can you please do a video on leash reactive dogs? My GSD, Zeus knows heel, he knows everything but he still can’t get over the leash frustration towards other dogs. I’ve done the turns and he heels but the second he sees anything it’s past his threshold

    I see what a difference the prong collar makes. I can see the instant engagement, but I'm not sure if it's too harsh for my dog.
    Just adopted a 5 year old female German shepherd five days ago. Very nervous, insecure, sensitive, not food motivated, and does not engage, but very sweet. Just started to introduce "sit", but backed off because of her being so nervous
    I realize that I do have to give her more time. In the meantime, researching training, behavioral information, especially since this is my first shelter dog, and only my second dog, but got him at three months old (terrier mix).
    I chose her because she was not doing well at the shelter, not because of her breed. Shelter kept her with people in their offices when she first got there because she was so scared.
    If she just is a sensitive dog, is the prong collar going to be too much?

    I have a 9 wk old gsd puppy that is not like any puppy I've seen on the hundreds of training videos, or anywhere in my life. He is extremely intelligent, gives me eye contact when hungry, understands commands and rules, but has an extremely defiant attitude when he is not hungry. He gets very angry and bites very hard. He bullies my two 8 year old picachoos, and is becoming more and more aggressive with them in his attempts to force them to play. He loves my male picachoo, but stalks him like a wild cat and attacks him. He only bites him harder after he screams in pain. He has started growling at me, and biting me hard when I go to pick him up to remove him from a place he is not allowed to be. I walk him several times throughout the day. Crate him at night, and at least once during the day for a very short period. I hand feed him to work on commands and tricks. When he is tired he is very sweet. I feel in my gut he is very dominant, and I want to know what to do. There are different rules for him and the picachoos because they have to have a way to escape his attacks. Is it possible that this is causing him the attitude? He wants to do everything my male picachoo does, and attempts everything he sees him do. I want to get this right. I wish a professional could observe him, and tell me what they think.
