    I cannot stress enough how happy I am that I found your videos. My wife and I just adopted a 5month old Husky from the rescue shelter. She is so sweet but there are behaviors we need to work on correcting. So many videos we have been watching did little to explain exactly what and why things were being done let alone explaining the relationship needed between human and dog to make all this possible. Your videos are so clear and concise, and the well filmed, it makes it so easy to follow along. I haven't been able to stop watching. We have had her for less than a week and she is already walking so well on the leash, has stopped nipping, and she seems to be getting happier with us every day. Thank you for these videos!

    Would that every father were as "grumpy' as Will!
    I'm the loving leader of a mixed breed shelter puppy who looks mostly like a yellow lab.
    I've had him less than a week, but he's already mastered meals, thresholds and nighttime crating.
    Your videos gave me confidence to bring him to his forever home.

    Excellent message, Will! Yes, Your sons are handsome! Eileen is lovely!! And, as always, I have learned from your video. PS: I am a senior. I am now the happy 'leader' and companion of a 6 month old GSD whom I've had since he was 8 weeks old. Sadly I lost my beloved 12 yr old male GSD and my sweet almost 11 yr. old female ( Czech) GSD last year within 6 months of each other to DM. Since I can't live without a dog...............Fortunately, I knew how important training and socialization were so I started with name and recall day one.............we DO, however, have our challenges - because every dog is different! - so I'm always learning new and better stuff from knowledgeable people such as yourself. THANK YOU for your sensible and excellent videos!!!

      Same, we adopted a 3 year old beagle-terrier mix and she seems to not have been trained besides understanding sit. Most videos are meant for training puppies so it’s hard to figure out how to handle her sometimes. But we keep trying at least since she’s already family. XD

    Our new 10 month old half lab and half border collie is super smart. She’s great on leash and her sit and down commands are amazing a learned very quick. But we are struggling with her jumping at home. When we come home and she is let out of her kennel, she’s so excited and jumps up off all 4 and no matter how many times we tell her no/off or even tried ignoring her and not giving her the attention she’s wanting. She still jumps. Usually if she’s on leash when walking i can correct her and she listens but she doesn’t have her leash on at home for me to correct her. What do you recommend?

    Will, I think I was over working my Maltese puppy with crate training today. I’ve had him for a couple of weeks and he is getting louder and more aggressive after a lot of correction in the crate. I gave him a super high value crate only toy and would correct him when he whimpered and he improved his time in the crate but got a ton of pent up energy and took hours and hours to work it out of him.

    I have a 1yo female Papillon and I went into PetsCorner to look for a slip line, and asked if they had any. They said they did but asked me what it was for, which I found unusual. What else is it for? I said for training as she is pulling and not listening when another dog grabs her attention. I was told by the staff member that their company policy prevented them to sell the slip line for to anyone for those reasons. So I asked them, "well what is a slip line for if not for training?" and I was told, "working dogs, like farm dogs, or taking to the vet". I said "well, working dogs and farm dogs are pretty well train as far as I understand. what would you suggest for the obedience training then?" and they said a flex lead, commands and treats and repetition, which to me sounded odd because if a dog is not listening to you, even when treats are involved, what chance have you got? Very unusual experience shopping for a slip line. I frowned at it, confused, and left. Am I missing something?

    I've been wondering if you'd ever make a video clearing up negative misconception about dogs. I've recently found there's subs on Reddit dedicated to hating dogs. I understand not liking dogs and I wouldn't force any one to, but quite a bit of what they say are incorrect such as dogs beegging, smelly, whining beasts and unclean that require attention 24/7. Or that they are naturally bad animal who just want to gorge themselves all the time.

    I just want my rescue to stop acting like a wild animal and I can’t understand why he won’t pay attention. I try to get him to do something and he just cowers. He won’t listen at all. I’m beginning to think that is why he was dumped on the mountain nearby. He was emaciated and was in the shelter for 5 months and was still pretty thin. I’m feeding him 3 times a day with treats in between and he’s looking better but he’s still a wild animal. Won’t listen to any commands even with treats. He just wants food and that’s all that matters. Won’t do anything for treats because he’s afraid. I’m almost ready to bring him back to the shelter and I need help. He’s so loving and wants to be close to me but he has no problem peeing or pooping inside my house. I can only tolerate it so much. I’m walking him 5 miles a day.
