These videos are so helpful, my papillon puppy (11 weeks old) chews and pulls on the leash or house line as soon as I put it on him, he’s extremely energetic (crazy) I don’t walk him yet, but I put him on leash to take him out to potty in the back yard, there’s a lot of birds of prey in my area so I can’t just let my tiny 3 pound puppy run loose outside, my question is about collars vs harnesses, most of the videos show dogs wearing collars, do you recommend collars better than harnesses to gain more control of the dog while doing these training exercises? my concern is that a small breed puppy’s neck is much more fragile than a large breed pup, which is why I’m using a harness. But I wonder if the use of the harness is working against me. I’ve tried to show him how to not pull/chew and walk on a loose leash but this little guy is wacky, he’s not always food motivated, and keeps picking up leaves and stuff from the yard to chew on, most times he’s so distracted he won’t go potty while we’re outside, (or it would take a really long time)and then shortly after we come back inside he’ll have an accident. Thank you for all the great content
Why wouldn't you use a chain collar? I find the chokers way more safe should the dog try to back out to escape. They also give a clicking sound before the dog reaches the complete limit which warns them to brace up whereas a flat collar gives no warning and just gives a hard impact. They are also less likely to fail. I guess I'm paranoid the dog might escape and get in big trouble.
Me three... She talks AS she's showing us WITH a dog. My 4 month old started biting the leash and when I'd say "no" and pull it out of his mouth it would turn into crazy zoomys with barking, jumping on my legs, biting my clothes & growling when just seconds ago he was perfect. Idk if my walks are too long for him, he's overstimulated, tired, thirsty, hungry or has to poop. When it's on a neighborhood sidewalk (not a remote path) it's so embarrassing. Ugh. I'll deff try these tricks next time!!
Holding the lead parallel to the ground for stoppers completely transformed walking with my 3 mth old pup. 1st walk trying it, so much better, 2nd, flawless loose lead walking. It's like magic!!
Omggg- my gsd 10 month old rescue is a chomper AND a stopper! I’ve even dropped her leash and try to jog ahead… she just stares at me as I work up a sweat 😅. I admit….. I have been a treat giver! I will reform! Thank you 😊.
Carol you legend 🙌🏻🙌🏻 my 15 week old lab was a stopper, flat out refused if we walked further than my neighbourhood. I can’t thank you enough, I was running out of ways to burn his energy without walking him. Thank you thank you thank you 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻💜🐶🦮☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️
I had to log in to leave a comment. This is one of the best videos that I've watched. It combines techniques, observations, demonstrations and ways to test learning. Brava!
When you said don't bribe them if they are stoppers.. that's the first thing i did 🤦🏻♀️ so glad i found this video.. hopefully I can try these tips with my 9 week mixed puppy.
Thank you! I'm preparing to have my first 4-legs companion and I watch your channel religiously. I'm living in a BIG city, are the rules the same? or could you guys help us to those living in urban areas? I'm worried there's a lot of distractions everywhere and the parks are packed with untrained dogs. Your channel is the best! Hugs from Peru
THANK YOU! I have a stopper and there is very few resources online to help with this behavior. It’s been a frustrating experience, but now I have some good tips and corrections for my own behavior. Hopefully my own corrections can help my pup. Thanks again.
Wonderful, needed advice! My 16 week old puppy, has been stubborn about coming back inside, or moving in the direction that I want him to go! I have made the mistake of luring him with a treat. Will definitely try this technique! Thank you!
Thank you so much for this!! When my puppy is doing something wrong I don't see in the mainstream training videos, I get so frustrated with both her and myself. But this particular instructor is so great at addressing less commonly talked about issues, and also being so sweet to the dogs and addressing different techniques for different dog personalities. 🥰🥰🥰
As I'm training my Cavapo pup, I see a Stopper, a Hopper and a Chomper in her. I have to admit, I've viewed this video 7 or 8 times. The techniques Carol suggests work really well, and used high value treats (baked chicken) for motivation. Thank again!!
My dog has been great on walks, but the last month or so he's been wanting to chomp on his leash and play tug of war. Thank you so much for these tips. I'll make sure to try them asap and see if they help
FAVORITE TRAINER - wow she is so descriptive and I can’t wait to try this on my chomped/stopper 10 week Amstaff puppy! Sometimes I feel like I’m being mean / losing patience and he is hating me when I just try tugging him along - but these methods I’ve never seen before!!! Cannot wait to try it. I’ll update on my progress
Omg I'm in your exact boat!!! I'm losing my patience, but I remember he's just a puppy and I need to learn to train. 13 week old pitbull mix here. Gosh he is a chomper!! We got this!!
@@daisyflower581 yes!! I think I am the one being trained more than the dog! I’ve learned a lot about myself since getting him but I think if we keep up training they will turn out great!
It is a joy to watch you training..... so patient, kind, understanding and loving.... One day soon I hope I will be able to take my dog on walks, as of now she is so independent minded or should I say unruly.... she pulls , she stops , she doesn't like us handling her leash. But otherwise she follows me everywhere like a duckling behind its mom.
My Boston pup was a stopper. I tried bribing him with treats at first to get him to move, but I’d have to bribe about every 10 feet. It was so frustrating, but then one day, idk…I decided to carry him. Just go on a walk carrying my 12 week old pup. I know not everyone will be able to do that (my pup was and still is quite small) and a lot of people in my neighborhood gave me a bit of heckling (“Ain’t he supposed to be walking?” “Ain’t he got legs?” Etc) but what this did was engage his curiosity. He was like “Hang on hang on hang on, what are all those sights and smells?” And I actually rewarded him trying to wriggle out of my arms, by putting him down. Then he was glad to walk the neighborhood and explore. :) And now his walks are his favorite!
Thank you Thank you Thank you! You've just captured my "chomper" Maui perfectly :) He's a 12 week old Australian Shepherd and leash training has been, well, interesting so far lol. This gives me some concrete skills to work with, cannot thank you enough!
What turns your dog into a hopper? Mine: other dogs, cats, people, squirrels, bikes, leaves, butterflies, a strong gust of wind and hearing someone leave their front door from about 200 meters away 🤣. I will try these tips. Thank you!
I like watching these just before going for a walk. Currently I am dogless, so these episodes are perfect for planning how to react before my next dog comes. I roleplay these situations while I'm out.
Great video, I'm gonna try the leash method as my little puppy for sure is a stopper unless I'm suuuuper fun and literally playing with him. EDIT: disregard that. My puppy is apparently way too young for walks. Ignorance is around every corner it seems.
Thank you...me and my pup have been wprking onThe walks and I think we have made great strides....but it all goes out the window when he sees another dog. He wants to play but not all the dogs we meet feel the same way. I think i may also encourage him To do it. Because I love to see him play😔. I know most is my fault, working on it
@@AshleighJaydeFleming i have fallen off the wagon with my training a bit, but when he sees another dog I make him stay and try to control my excitement- with me, pup is much better...with my hubby- he's a mess😂
Nice! Our little 3 month old golden retriever is both a ‘freezer’ and a leash chomper ! Doesn’t like a leash. Since we live out in the country I like to let her run free, but would also like to leash train her. Thanks for these nice training tips! I’ll try them out.
@@annalogan7881 hello. Well she’s 20 months old now. She doesn’t bite her leash anymore. But because most of the time she’s walking free when I leash her she tends to pull. But she’s much better behaved now!
I always love Carol's video's! So great to see Eukeur too (I thought I recognized him). Great info, now I know my fault for letting them go see a dog. Could one perhaps have a release (ok, or a go see) if you are ok with them seeing another dog? For example a friend with their dog and it is ok to sniff and play.
My Border Aussie does all of these things. I threw up my hands one day and threw her leash. She picked it up and walked herself home and waited by the door. I know it's not the right thing to do, but she likes to walk herself.
We had our first GOOD walk.. He didn't want to walk in our neighbourhood.. Always sitting down. We tried to encourage him so much, but nothing helped.. Toy, food, pets etc. In the mall? Nothing! Only around our house. It took maybe 10 minutes total and he walked all the way around! Keeping up this training method.
Thank you my dog is a chomper and a jumper but she’s a puppy so we are definitely trying to teach her she used to be scared to approach dogs and goes the opposite way now that’s she grown she likes to jump and go crazy lol
Are you ready for some more leash training with your dog? Check out our video that will show you how to get better attention outside: ua-cam.com/video/KqKmzmY8Muo/v-deo.html Happy Training!
Thank you my 18 week border collie has been crate rested for the last 5 weeks due to breaking her rear toes and everything on lead has gone down the pan, so will try this today 😁
So nice to see something different than an alpha man telling you if your dog does something wrong you’re not tough enough to show him who the real boss is🙏
I have a stopper and im going to try this method. The only way i could get her to get going (for a little while) was stand her up and try to get her to chase me...but then she just kept stopping for a while. Eventually we got into a good rhythm but i could still feel her fighting thr urge to want to stop again.
Can I check when a little pup freezes on a walk. Do you reassure them or just wait. I like the use of the lead parallel to the ground. I saw a similar video but this explains it much better. She does this with traffic so I've started saying it's OK it's a car or van etc.
Thank you! I’m having such a hard time getting my dog to go out to go to the bathroom on a leash. She puts the brakes on. I will have to try this in a few minutes.
Tips for a husky puppy who absolutely loves our older dog (who is about 30 lbs) and tries to play with him, but the older dog balks? They lick each other a lot, but as soon as the puppy starts nipping a little or gets in the older dog's space, we get a snarl from the older dog. Not sure how to encourage a good relationship while not allowing the nipping and sometimes intrusive behavior.
My Barney is a dreadful chomper so we've always used a full chain leash. When he's overexcited (coming back into the garden after a walk) his jumping and chomping are a trial.
i know this is an old video but someone might still be here so. I have a golden retriever that randomly starts biting the least and jumping on me, nothing i do can take his focus from that leash. Hes 5 months old so hes teething aswell and when he starts jumping and biting then im covered in blood or my clothes are. ive tried turning my back, letting leash in when he pulls, body pumping away, trying to lure away with a treat nothing seems to work.... its getting frustrating and it keeps happening more and more, right now its now and then...
I'm trying to use my 8 week old puppy's leash to potty train but she just bites at it and rolls onto her back. Similarly, whenever we go outside she just wants to lay in the grass and eat it, and if I move she chases after me and does it all over again (herding breed). Also, for regular training. She isn't very food motivated at all, she doesn't like following the food so it's hard to train tricks and crate train.
I don't know if this will help at all, but I have a heading dog mix, and at first she just wanted to herd everything and wouldn't listen to me at all, but I got a couple of chickens and to satisfy her need to herd, I would let her herd the chickens and train her a bit with that. Afterwards, she's all tired out and she actually carried on with regular training just fine. So maybe all your dog needs is some training to satisfy the urges that comes with the breed? Sorry if this doesn't help, just decided to share some of my experiences.
@@beautifulpeeps7086 we aren't allowed to have farm animals nor would my mom and her bf allow it, nor would we have the time to take care of chickens. i'm fine with her chasing and herding me, its the not being food motivated/willing to train and the biting at the leash/rolling on her back/eating grass that frustrates me.
My dog is OBSESSED with squirrels and rabbits. We walks so good until he sees one. Then he’s jumping and biting the leash. I don’t think he’s trying to play tug. He’s mad at the leash. How do I prevent this?
My dog has become a chomper. I've tried all of these except the chain so far and no luck. Hand in collar got my hand bit cause he twists his head. Will try the chain to see if that helps. My problem is that he grabs straight up at the leash handle. Any more recommendations are welcome! Thanks.
My 6 month old lab still continues to pull. I have been trying for months. The only time he walks nice is when I have treat. As soon as he gets the reward he’s back to pulling.
So our new 9 month old border collie pup stops on walks when he sees other dogs and will lay down ready to playfully pounce at the other dog would this method work for such a situation or is there something else I could try? He is also a major puller or can get fixated on treats and will stop and wait for treats rather than focus on going toilet or walking forward.
yep I have been trying to work through all 3 of those problems. My 1 year old is a deadweight pancake when a dog is approaching and crossing roads can be a nightmare, she'll lunge at anything which makes walking on city sidewalks challenging, but the worst is the chomping. I've tried the chain, the bite deterrent and even reaching for the collar and it all turns to jumping and biting me instead. *sigh :(
At one year she has had lots of time for bad habits to become ingrained. Sometimes it helps to go to a professional--even just once if money is an issue!--to help point out behaviors YOU are exhibiting that you are unaware of. The problem is very rarely with the dog. The fact you watched this shows you are interested in making a change, which is a great place to start. Don't give up.
I have a f1b goldendoodle and he's not cooperating w. My commands because I have a 1yr old multipoo who is a distraction & it makes it 100x harder. I need help. 😫
Nice video, for hoppers what if the cause is a place? When I walk her through the housing estate there are dogs behind walls which she can hear and always goes mental walking by, but it's the only path we can take so should we do the sit and stop there ?
You are bang on. Anytime or any place our dogs lose their brain we can give them something to do. And that sit is ideal. Once they are calmer we can move ahead. It may be a little tougher because the situation we showed the dog moves away. you will need to move through but establishing calm is still a great strategy.
i’m no dog expert by any means, we recently just got a puppy but i’d say research each breed and see which is a good fit for you. maltese are very intelligent and easy to train but potty training can be hard bc they’re small dogs meaning smaller bladders they can also be quite sensitive and do tend to bark a lot. cocker spaniels are usually pretty gentle and loving, easy to train but are also barkers. this puppy we got recently is also our first and i just want to let you know that puppies are a lot of work, even more than you think. my entire family and i didn’t realize this and didn’t do enough research around it. especially if your puppy is young expect a lot of potty accidents, biting, and sometimes crazy puppy behavior. be sure to be loving with your puppy, though they can get very frustrating at times, you gotta be extremely patient(we’re still working on this) because remember they’re basically babies. try not to reinforce bad behavior/habits like when they whine don’t give attention until they’re quiet. puppies are adorable but seriously a ton of work. you have to be consistent and will probably lose a lot of sleep as you need to get up every 2-3 hours when they’re young to let them go potty if you decide to crate train them, which is recommended to speed up potty training process and reduce accidents.
Hello I having a problem with my BC keep biting leash he see people or especially dog coming on their way or across the street. Is like he telling me to let the leash or him go? How can I fix that?
I want to try to apply this to my dog that I’ve got my grandparents house that we only taught her how to herd sheep that’s it when she gets on a leash you just drops like a sack of potatoes, but if she’s off the leash, she will follow me, so that’s what we’re having problems with her sister didn’t have this problem
What else could be wrong with a dog who doesn't want to move at all with a leash on? We got a 4 month old Great Pyrenees from a breeder who owns a farm a few days ago and she won't move inside or outside with it attached. They may've only gotten her used to a collar and not a leash. If they did get her used to a leash, maybe they used a standard leash and she doesn't like our retractable ones.
Would the technique for stoppers work on Shiba Inus? I would like to get one in the future but have heard that they sometimes stop mid-walk and won’t move due to their “I won’t do it if it doesn’t make sense” personality. Just wondering if it’s something that can be worked on.

What about just laying on the ground in biding at least?

Glad you enjoyed it, Lori! Happy Training!
I have a stopper and im going to try this method. The only way i could get her to get going (for a little while) was stand her up and try to get her to chase me...but then she just kept stopping for a while. Eventually we got into a good rhythm but i could still feel her fighting thr urge to want to stop again.
Really amazing tips!
Carol you are great!
Can I check when a little pup freezes on a walk. Do you reassure them or just wait. I like the use of the lead parallel to the ground. I saw a similar video but this explains it much better. She does this with traffic so I've started saying it's OK it's a car or van etc.
This video could not have come up in my feed at a more perfect time! My 5 and half old puppy has just started putting on the brakes!!
We had a feeling you might need this video, thats why we put it out! 😆
Happy Training!

I have a little hopper but the treat strategy has been backfiring, as just being around treats tends to get her hopping more.
Thank you! I’m having such a hard time getting my dog to go out to go to the bathroom on a leash. She puts the brakes on. I will have to try this in a few minutes.
Tips for a husky puppy who absolutely loves our older dog (who is about 30 lbs) and tries to play with him, but the older dog balks? They lick each other a lot, but as soon as the puppy starts nipping a little or gets in the older dog's space, we get a snarl from the older dog. Not sure how to encourage a good relationship while not allowing the nipping and sometimes intrusive behavior.
My Barney is a dreadful chomper so we've always used a full chain leash. When he's overexcited (coming back into the garden after a walk) his jumping and chomping are a trial.
Excellent!
Glad you enjoyed our video, Woody! Happy Training!
My problem is i have degenerative tendonitis and the pulling risks my tendons snapping. Thank you for advice
i know this is an old video but someone might still be here so. I have a golden retriever that randomly starts biting the least and jumping on me, nothing i do can take his focus from that leash. Hes 5 months old so hes teething aswell and when he starts jumping and biting then im covered in blood or my clothes are. ive tried turning my back, letting leash in when he pulls, body pumping away, trying to lure away with a treat nothing seems to work.... its getting frustrating and it keeps happening more and more, right now its now and then...
Carol how we love thee!!! 🥰
I'm trying to use my 8 week old puppy's leash to potty train but she just bites at it and rolls onto her back. Similarly, whenever we go outside she just wants to lay in the grass and eat it, and if I move she chases after me and does it all over again (herding breed).
Also, for regular training. She isn't very food motivated at all, she doesn't like following the food so it's hard to train tricks and crate train.
I don't know if this will help at all, but I have a heading dog mix, and at first she just wanted to herd everything and wouldn't listen to me at all, but I got a couple of chickens and to satisfy her need to herd, I would let her herd the chickens and train her a bit with that. Afterwards, she's all tired out and she actually carried on with regular training just fine. So maybe all your dog needs is some training to satisfy the urges that comes with the breed? Sorry if this doesn't help, just decided to share some of my experiences.
@@beautifulpeeps7086 we aren't allowed to have farm animals nor would my mom and her bf allow it, nor would we have the time to take care of chickens. i'm fine with her chasing and herding me, its the not being food motivated/willing to train and the biting at the leash/rolling on her back/eating grass that frustrates me.
💕 just wow
My dog is OBSESSED with squirrels and rabbits. We walks so good until he sees one. Then he’s jumping and biting the leash. I don’t think he’s trying to play tug. He’s mad at the leash. How do I prevent this?
My dog has become a chomper. I've tried all of these except the chain so far and no luck. Hand in collar got my hand bit cause he twists his head. Will try the chain to see if that helps. My problem is that he grabs straight up at the leash handle. Any more recommendations are welcome! Thanks.
I’ve got the triple threat. 😢 My 16 week old Rottweiler does all these thing. and he’s getting stronger by the day
My 6 month old lab still continues to pull. I have been trying for months. The only time he walks nice is when I have treat. As soon as he gets the reward he’s back to pulling.
My puppy is all three 😐 I need this.

9:45 “If my dog is sitting, they tend to be calmer and have more of a brain.” 😄 Nice simple thought, for those of us who have dog-like brains. Thx! 👏🏼
Memorable and effective is what we aim for, Ears To Hear;) Glad you enjoyed our video. Happy Training!
Yep. My little guy just freezes randomly from time to time.
And then he pulls when he knows we’re heading home…
Yeah, I Rebecca at first was a chopper and she’s become a really good walker
So our new 9 month old border collie pup stops on walks when he sees other dogs and will lay down ready to playfully pounce at the other dog would this method work for such a situation or is there something else I could try? He is also a major puller or can get fixated on treats and will stop and wait for treats rather than focus on going toilet or walking forward.
You always do a great job Carol! Thank you! I hope your wrist isn’t hurt. Euchre you’ve gotten so big!!
I have all 3
yep I have been trying to work through all 3 of those problems. My 1 year old is a deadweight pancake when a dog is approaching and crossing roads can be a nightmare, she'll lunge at anything which makes walking on city sidewalks challenging, but the worst is the chomping. I've tried the chain, the bite deterrent and even reaching for the collar and it all turns to jumping and biting me instead. *sigh :(
At one year she has had lots of time for bad habits to become ingrained. Sometimes it helps to go to a professional--even just once if money is an issue!--to help point out behaviors YOU are exhibiting that you are unaware of. The problem is very rarely with the dog. The fact you watched this shows you are interested in making a change, which is a great place to start. Don't give up.
I have a f1b goldendoodle and he's not cooperating w. My commands because I have a 1yr old multipoo who is a distraction & it makes it 100x harder. I need help. 😫
My rescue is been doing that. I need to do this. And she is becoming a bad lesh chopper I need to get hat chain.
I have a 6 months old goldendoodle superchomper. None of the tips work. We use a harness on walks, is this a problem?
My four month old puppy is not motivated with treats. What do I do?
I have a stopper/chopper combo
Nice video, for hoppers what if the cause is a place? When I walk her through the housing estate there are dogs behind walls which she can hear and always goes mental walking by, but it's the only path we can take so should we do the sit and stop there ?
You are bang on. Anytime or any place our dogs lose their brain we can give them something to do. And that sit is ideal. Once they are calmer we can move ahead. It may be a little tougher because the situation we showed the dog moves away. you will need to move through but establishing calm is still a great strategy.
Hi so we’re getting a dog for the first time and r confused between Maltese and cocker spaniel. Which dog do u recommend?
i’m no dog expert by any means, we recently just got a puppy but i’d say research each breed and see which is a good fit for you. maltese are very intelligent and easy to train but potty training can be hard bc they’re small dogs meaning smaller bladders they can also be quite sensitive and do tend to bark a lot. cocker spaniels are usually pretty gentle and loving, easy to train but are also barkers. this puppy we got recently is also our first and i just want to let you know that puppies are a lot of work, even more than you think. my entire family and i didn’t realize this and didn’t do enough research around it. especially if your puppy is young expect a lot of potty accidents, biting, and sometimes crazy puppy behavior. be sure to be loving with your puppy, though they can get very frustrating at times, you gotta be extremely patient(we’re still working on this) because remember they’re basically babies. try not to reinforce bad behavior/habits like when they whine don’t give attention until they’re quiet. puppies are adorable but seriously a ton of work. you have to be consistent and will probably lose a lot of sleep as you need to get up every 2-3 hours when they’re young to let them go potty if you decide to crate train them, which is recommended to speed up potty training process and reduce accidents.
@@user-ei6ff4rx6l Hi thank u for the reply :) Just wanted u to know we got a cocker spaniel!!
Hello I having a problem with my BC keep biting leash he see people or especially dog coming on their way or across the street. Is like he telling me to let the leash or him go? How can I fix that?
I want to try to apply this to my dog that I’ve got my grandparents house that we only taught her how to herd sheep that’s it when she gets on a leash you just drops like a sack of potatoes, but if she’s off the leash, she will follow me, so that’s what we’re having problems with her sister didn’t have this problem
I’ve got a stopper if i’m trying to do a street walk. If she’s out in open spaces there’s no problem.
Can you tell me what tug toy Carol uses at 9:30 - I have seen her use this before and looks a good option for us?
I have a 9 week old puppy and he threats every time I leave its side any idears or tips to help him get use to being alone?
What else could be wrong with a dog who doesn't want to move at all with a leash on? We got a 4 month old Great Pyrenees from a breeder who owns a farm a few days ago and she won't move inside or outside with it attached. They may've only gotten her used to a collar and not a leash. If they did get her used to a leash, maybe they used a standard leash and she doesn't like our retractable ones.
Will this work with my 120 lb English lab ?
Would the technique for stoppers work on Shiba Inus? I would like to get one in the future but have heard that they sometimes stop mid-walk and won’t move due to their “I won’t do it if it doesn’t make sense” personality. Just wondering if it’s something that can be worked on.
