I have no dog, Stonnie. Not for the past 3 1/2 yrs. Maybe again one day though. We had a black Lab... therefore my affinity for Henry and Mr. No Name. We love your channel, training method, family husiness... we’ll see what the future brings.
I'll have to look into this for my Lab! My husband and I were going to send our dog to training school for two months, but with Covid, unfortunately in my state, training was cancelled. We just want a happy and healthy relationship with our lab. I was reading your info and read that this online program is for dogs under 5 months? Is that correct?
Winnie and I would watch the Stonnie videos as part of our morning routine. I was looking for some help with puppy biting and found Stonnie’s commentary interesting and insightful. If you want to immediately correct your dog’s rude behavior and have more positive experiences with your dog then Better Call Stonnie or “Cameraman”. There is no substitution to experience- by-doing. Thank you so much Stonnie and Amy.
Stonnie this is one of your best videos. Having owners do the course really helps us see the communication we give to dogs. Then entire time i kept yelling loosen the leash! No criticism to the owners, we all do these things not realizing. The owners were very brave to put themselves out there for us to learn. Thank you!!
I enjoy your videos. Very cool watching Larry's turn... Your commentary was so on point, plus watching him move as you spoke about him...great to see you so in tune with him. Him stumbling off that plank, on cue. Wow. Very very cool. I liked the Larry section.
Shout out to Stonnie, his training methods are wonderful! We’ve had our GSP Izzy home from training for almost 7 months. Her social behavior is great and her recall is the best. No matter where we go she’s very well behaved, get compliments every time we’re out and about. I love all of our puppy-sized adventures thanks to your training! Take care & hope you and your family have a wonderful holiday season.
Stonnie is a master, hands down. I think I'll have him train my first lab. It'll be late next summer sometime 'round then. Heads up Stonnie .. hah hah! :)

Every time I watch one of your videos, it solidifies my love for dog training AND makes me really want to build an obstacle course in my yard. Thank you for sharing another great video!!
Mick- thank you for your comments. Winnie was a handful the first few weeks and we were honestly not sure what to do with her biting. Stonnie and his approach help us solve the biting in less than 5 minutes. Getting the bad behavior out of the way paved the way for many wonderful adventures.
I love it that George's dog training channel has just passed 1 million subscribers. His mix of fashion and protection dog training is inspirational. You and Mrs Stonnie must be so proud. Kindest regards.
My black lab pup Boss (12 weeks) and I love watching your videos and we are both learning a lot! Thanks a ton Stonnie! Wish we could make it out to Kentucky! Cheers from Oregon!
Usually 35° celsius with plenty of humidity to contend with :) I'm unsure of the conversion to farenheit.. Plenty of splashing around in the pool and creek!
Thank you for covering the sensitivity level of English Setters. We are on our 4th rescue, not one got off to a good start. They do try hard and are super affectionate. They love skijoring here in Vt.having great stamina and unphased by the cold. your videos are great. Thanks.
Love your work. I have learned from you how to train a dog , but more importantly you have trained me to be a good owner. Fred, my Black Lab is almost like a show dog that gets numerous compliments daily. I just tell them I have a good dog and check out Stonnie on youtube. great work!
I know this is a year old but I just found your channel. Such great down to earth clear information. For sure adding “easy” into my vocabulary. Thank you!
Stonnie I got a new puppy and I’ve watched your videos to train him thanks! You training makes sense and easy for me to understand and for me to to teach him thanks stonnie!!
Fabulous video learned so much especially about the treats the difference in the dogs when you walk them the lady looks like me so I am going to train me from today will watch this over and over to get it right so much great information
I really enjoy watching your videos and find the tips you give very helpful. Seeing how you help your clients learn the ropes in this video has been really useful. We pick up our GSP in February and look forward to making practical use of your guidance over here in the UK. Stay safe.
Great job making this video, Stonnie. This is a good teaching video. You make this obstacle course look easy, but it's not. There are so many small details that could go wrong for a novice owner. Sometimes, I think it's easier to train the dogs than the owners. "The dog's bored because you are boring." Haha, so little words, so on point.
Loved this video! Watching them, and hearing your instructions, made it easy to see things that I can improve with my training. Would like to see more videos like this, with you showing others learning your techniques, and the mistakes they make, and how they can improve.
Been watching for a new video from you! Found this very helpful. I would love to see your expectations for dogs inside the home - manners, whether or not you let them on the couch. Things like that! Thanks again!
Stonnie I got my pup on November 14th. It has been rough on the crate training but we are getting there. I live in NY, if able; I would like to send my pup to you for some training.
Do you have a video or can you do a video on how to set up your own small challenges course at home? Obviously on a smaller scale, the purpose of the elements, which elements are essential, etc?
I have a black lab named Bronn. He's 10 months old, he's a very loving and loyal dog, but he pulls on the leash! I am a petite woman, so when my dog pulls, I almost go flying! Do you have a video I can watch to help me with my dog? Thank you. Also!! I trained my dog to use my treadmill. He walks perfectly by my side when we are on the treadmill, but pulls on leash when outside. I can't walk him outside (husband does) but I know how smart labs are, I just need help, for my safety and dog's too! I did read your info about online training. For dogs under 5 months?
Try the gentle leader head collar, which affixes under the dog's chin instead of behind the head, encouraging them to turn and look at you as a response to their pulling. It worked like a charm for my 9 m/o mutt
Thank you for the video. We live in Dallas, TX, we are planning on buying a dog, but we are not 100% sure which one. We have allergies and live in a house with a small backyard. Would you recommend an english lab or German Wirehaired Pointer?
Hi Stonnie, I was curious if many of your clients went on to compete in any dogsports ? I am the owner / handler of an English Lab who has done Obedience, Rally, Agility, and Retrieving trials and is presently into Barn Hunt and Scent detection. I have noticed many bits and pieces I have picked up off of the classes and trainers I have gone to in your videos, but love how you put so much of it together in one package.
No, not really. Think of dog training service providers as being broken down into two, basic, categories: dog centric and non dog centric. A dog centric dog trainer looks at training as a social or vocational activity and trains with very specific goals in mind. Non dog centric dog trainers looks at training as simply a way to help pups mature into well rounded companions who can successfully navigate the challenges of day to day life. Maybe a better way to put it is dog training as a hobby vs. dog training as a way to help the dog learn to tag along with the owner while the owner does fun stuff. I'm in the latter group.
@@StonnieDennis I guess I look at it more like I am the one who tags along while my dog gets to do fun stuff. Hiking or going to some kind of Dog event... those are the good days, Training is just having the co-operation to accomplish that.
I have a question stonnie. How can I spend time with my 10 months old dog, besides just walking him, and playing with him..? He seems quite bored alot of the time even after a long walk or after a good play with his friends
Don't forget to mention that you tell the dog what you want by guiding them with your body? Specifically your leg. So you are creating the feeling of a corridor in the dog's mind. The handler is on the dog's right side and pushes the dog with their left leg placement.
Beautiful English Setter, they are a different type of dog for sure. When my setter gets mad or upset bird hunting he'll hide in bush or sit on the edge of the field and refusing to follow to us in.
Dear Stonnie, I will try my luck again and ask once more for the name of the awesome jacket you are wearing :) I did spent way too much time searching for a brand with 2 crossed rifles and I simply can't find it. So if you find a minute to reply, I would be more than happy :)

ENTHUSIASM!!!! that's the world you're looking for. Dogs follow a strong happy energy. I think u should walk the owners around the course a little and teach them inflection. They are a little unsure still. I can see it. If they are unsure, then the dog will be same way. You ALWAYS want to be the most exciting thing out there. They naturally gravitate towards something exciting and rewarding. Make yourself more valuable and they will be more attentive and happy to be with you. Not to mention, eager to please. I think they should also learn how to be more fluid in their body movements. Bend into those turns effortlessly and not let the dog get too ahead of u. I use my hand as a stop sign. When the the hand is out, everything comes to a stop!! They have to be ready to bring that hand up one step before they actually need it. That way, the timing is correct. Just my experience. You're a great teacher, I'm sure with a little practice, they will develop a feel for it.. Very sweet dog, once everyone falls into line, I think they will all be very happy. After all, they did bring the dog to u, so they must be good people 😊🤞👍👏
You think? I was trying to get the dogs to stand out more. When I was editing the videos the colors seemed to over power the coloration Of the dogs in certain situations.
You know... I don't think I would have really cared enough to mention it, but I do prefer the colors. Perhaps, I am just adverse to change or maybe we all have a touch of seasonal depression/cabin fever due to COVID. Who knows?! It's an interesting thought exercise if nothing else!

“It’s very rarely a problem with the dog....” that’s soo good.
Love this with the CLients... wonderful lesson for all who train for guidance with client patience and coaching!
Thank for sharing. Great to see the owners going over the course. Stonnie makes it looks easy with natural movements. A master of his trade.
Thank you for watching!
I enjoy your videos.
Very cool watching Larry's turn...
Your commentary was so on point, plus watching him move as you spoke about him...great to see you so in tune with him.
Him stumbling off that plank, on cue. Wow.
Very very cool. I liked the Larry section.
Thank you!

Uncle Stonnie's back!...yes! 👍🏽 With a nice new paint job on the course.
I love how you nicely told the owner the dog is way above them as far as the learning process. Man of class and wit
This has been one of your best teaching videos. Hilarious and so informative. Many thanks. 😊
Glad you enjoyed it!
I love it that George's dog training channel has just passed 1 million subscribers. His mix of fashion and protection dog training is inspirational. You and Mrs Stonnie must be so proud. Kindest regards.
The technique of being calm on the approach is a great tip. Made a huge difference in my dogs control:)

Another great video. Missed seeing you the past couple of weeks. Hope all is well with you and your family. Thanks for sharing some of you with us.
Thank you! I’ll get back on track soon...
This was a great learning/training experience 😊
You are an awesome trainer and really understand the dogs mind. Great video
Great to see you mate, wish I was there in the cool weather ( tough hot summer here in Australia
What kind of temperatures do you see in your area?
Usually 35° celsius with plenty of humidity to contend with :) I'm unsure of the conversion to farenheit.. Plenty of splashing around in the pool and creek!

Good luck!
@Stonnie Dennis I absolutely love the waxed jacket you are wearing! Would you mind telling me the brand of it?
Greetings from a huge fan in Germany :)
“Breakdown in communication” I love that.

AWESOME video I learned where I was making mistakes with my fur baby.
Wow this is a game changer. So many of us grew up using the leash to steer the dog like reins of a horse. Need to let the dog make their own decisions
It's funny because beginner riders use the reigns too much as well lol
Great job making this video, Stonnie. This is a good teaching video. You make this obstacle course look easy, but it's not. There are so many small details that could go wrong for a novice owner. Sometimes, I think it's easier to train the dogs than the owners.

excellent. Self trained both dogs I owned. One was a Golden and the other a rescued mutt. Both were females.
Much love to you Stonnie
How's Georgie getting on with the protection dogs? It's been a while since we saw an update.
I didnt' see a second channel. Linkk?
This video really showed me , that the dog is looking for guidance from the owners! They did a good job though!🙂❤️
Really helpful insights 👍

Been a tough few weeks...
@@StonnieDennis you take care now bud
Love the video as always Stonnie !! I am interested in what your secret dog crack actually is 🧐
Do you have an archive hidden somewhere with more of these private sessions ?
Love the jacket. @stonniedennis What brand and where can I buy one? Love your training videos too ;)

She's a beauty!
Beautiful English Setter, they are a different type of dog for sure. When my setter gets mad or upset bird hunting he'll hide in bush or sit on the edge of the field and refusing to follow to us in.
Stonier. Do you ever work with standard poodles?
Sometimes.
What is the name of that leash?
Is it always hardest to train the handler? I think so. The dog is a constant.

Very sweet dog, once everyone falls into line, I think they will all be very happy. After all, they did bring the dog to u, so they must be good people 😊🤞👍👏
I noticed both owners had a bit of a tough time keeping their heads up and not stare at the dogs..
That will come with practice and confidence
Looks to me like the owners need more training than their dogs. It's like that bumper sticker 'My great dane is smarter than you honor roll student'.
You know mom is going to yank the shit out that leash when they are back home.
What is your dog crack? Venison, liver, beef heart? A friend made venison bologna and we called it dog crack. The dogs went crazy over it.
Stonnie, what happened to your brightly colored obstacles? That gray is depressing.
You think? I was trying to get the dogs to stand out more. When I was editing the videos the colors seemed to over power the coloration Of the dogs in certain situations.
@@StonnieDennis I also miss the bright colors but then again I'm colors blind. But your videos are great Stonnie. Well done!
@@StonnieDennis curious if you add sand or something to paint to provide traction? Like the dark grey.
You know... I don't think I would have really cared enough to mention it, but I do prefer the colors. Perhaps, I am just adverse to change or maybe we all have a touch of seasonal depression/cabin fever due to COVID. Who knows?! It's an interesting thought exercise if nothing else!
