Bobandjeri Shaffer You are a hero! Truly appreciate your kindness and time for those dogs👍 We’ve always had rescue animals or strays and they are the BEST animals ( and usually a little bit of a project but the rewards are totally worth it ❤️💫)
Exactly. I volunteer at our local humane society to walk dogs. Most of them have had no structure or leadership. I want to help make these dogs better canine citizens but it sure is tough in this environment. Any suggestions for someone in my shoes ( limit of 15 min per dog, loud shelter , limited resources...)?
@@sparra8519 - well in a way you are a leader, as in you show them the right things to do. Not leader in a controlling way, leader in kind of like a companion way. I don’t know if I’m making any sense it’s hard to put into words what I’m thinking in my head haha :)
i came across this video seeking advice on how to better my relationship with my german shepherd and i am now realizing he is such a good boy. I make him sit on his cot while i fill his bowl with food and even leave his sight in order to get the water but he will not leave his cot until i say go or let’s go and he stares at me and waits for permission. He just recently learned how to stay seated even when the cot isn’t present. He’s a little over a year. This video actually made me realize that i’m being too harsh on myself. I want him to be a great dog but i also need to enjoy him while he’s still a crazy pup!
Our human expectations, our doubts, our bad feelings, our emotions make them do bad like they do if there is no correct structure for the relationship. I always say to my clients "drop any expectations", "be patient", and "don't be too harsh on yourself and therefore for your dog" 😉 and most important "don't try to over control the dog, show him a different way to behave" Tom, as always on point... 😉
Good puppy! You are definitely laying a good foundation, but I would start him in basic obedience asap, because 1) he is very willing to please, and 2) there's no telling how far you can go with a gsd like yours. Wish mine weren't so hard headed. 😁
Bad part is people usually think that this is just irritating a dog and being mean to him. Showing the food and taking it away etc. People started treating dogs like humans lately which is just not a good thing.
Your point about not using treats as rewards is so right on. Other trainers on yt constantly are treating and there's no question your method is more sustainable and relationship building focused. Very nice.
It doesn't take long to teach this either. Its a great tool for the winter when you're headed out the front door and there's ice and snow on your front steps. Last thing you want is to be pulled down those steps. Thank you Tom!
Or like my mom used to do with big dogs and let them go first out the door on ice. They went out the door max speed and slid into the vehicle outside lol. They weren't hurt, just a light bonk.
Beacon is the BEST boy!! So cute when he was trying to play with you! Love watching GSMD on your channel! Not always the easiest to train, but they’re my ❤ breed.
Thanks so much for this! We adopted two puppies nine years ago, and it's been a while since we had to think about these fundamentals in a structured way. We lost one of our dogs to cancer last year. It was incredibly difficult and unspeakable beautiful to have all the love we shared and trust we built together in her final moments. We recently decided to adopt a new dog and this has been such a helpful reminder and refresher.
My notes: 1. (Going inside) put dog in sit. Carefully swing open door and praise if she stays. Do it about 3 times and reward/praise if they stay. 2. Use release command like "break." To let them know they can go inside or come out of the sit 3. When finished training with dog, then use release command (Steps: swing open door, if she stays, praise, then say break to get her out of sit
OMG....I have been feeding my dog (a Rottweiler) like this from day one 😆 take the bowl to his food mat, have him sit, put the bowl down, have him look at me (not the food) and he can’t eat until I say go ahead. Teaching “leave it” helps so much for so many things!!!!
Does it makes a difference if a dog looks at you or the food if he still waits for your command to eat , coz my dog is focused on food but wait for my command ,just curious
Dear Thomas, I am in School for my Dog Trainer exam in Germany. I really love your connection to dogs! It’s really inspiring especially since I study Canine, it’s history and behavior! I can feel your „Aura“ and „charisma“ you send to the dog passiv.. I hope you know what I mean with this, doesn’t know the proper explanation for the word in English. Also it’s great for me to see the different body languages of the dogs! Honestly it’s pretty tough to find a trainer, who is dealing with this kind of dogs in my surrounding. Thank you for letting me learn from you good sir! Wish you success in what ever level.
I love my dog and I know she loves me and she is very smart and we have gotten a lot of training down and it's only been a little over a month. But the problem I have and the questions and concerns I have is that I feel like she only does the things we are trying to do out of fear and not having a relationship with me because I received her from a very abusive home where she was beaten by grown men and fighting six other dogs over food it was just a horrible situation and I'm glad I got to bring her out of that!.. but I want her to do it out of love and respect and relationship instead of doing it out of fear. God bless everyone and good luck
I think Lakota is a Dutch Shepherd. Thanks for all your tips. I’ve started leash work (heel, auto sit, and “on me”) with my mostly obedient Yorkiepoo and he’s loving it. The BREAK! tip is especially useful. I can see how it releases his tension and keeps him focused longer. He’s a smart dog and learns fast and now I feel like I know HOW to train him. Thank you for making this content free!
Two weeks ago I was ready to take my dog to the shelter after he bit (and killed) our 3 mo kitten. Watching your videos has given me so much hope and we’re already making big progress in his behavior and responsiveness to my commands. Thank you for all you do.
I don't train family members, been talking to them since day number one. What a CONNECTION we have CREATED through TRUST, AWARENESS AND RESPECT. Go get the ball spike! Sheesh, my Party Pomeranian picks up after me.
Its not about a;pha. Its about good mannors. It makes life easier. And opens up opportunites for the dog to experience, that if he had bad mannors, he would not be able to enjoy. As a dog gets older, its second hand. Its just a way of life. ANd the dog knows when he can make his own decision, and when he needs to defer to the human. I really like your methods.
I work at a boarding/day camp resort.. and I really really wish Pet Parents would try the method you were teaching. Sometimes I literally have to take 15 minutes trying to get out of their boarding room because they just don't have any manners.
Lakota looks like a malinois to me! She's absolutely gorgeous. Thank you for the videos. They've really helped me with my anxious dog. He used to bite hard enough to leave welts - not out of maliciousness, just anxious and a herding breed
I have become more structured with my anxiety pup and I'm using place, break and better in communication. She has come along way. So thank you. It is helping me as I train and assess client's dog behavioral issues. So thank again awesome videos.
Thank you for convincing me to get a dog! I trained my uncle’s pit bull to heel using your leash pressure method and gave her MASSIVE praise when she did good, and she learned it and even hopped over a lil 2x4 to stay in position! I’m so sad that my uncle couldn’t keep her is an awesome dog, but at least she with his ex and his son so that the dog will at least have the lill boy Hooman friend.
Every dog needs a hooman. Every hooman needs a dog! At least you did all you could do for the situation! Sometimes things are simply in vain. no matter what you do. Bless you for your efforts!
I'm training this Marquis that's been diagnosed with adhd. Back when he was a pup he did really poorly in puppy training, which made the trainer and owner think they couldn't accomplish much with him. Which is of course bullshit, he just got very distracted by everyone around him. (Which is why I'm not going to do group sessions any time soon) He's very toy motivated, so in my first session I played some fetch with him and asked for eye contact before throwing the ball. At first just a fraction of a second, then we got to 5 seconds. The owner put it into practice, asking for eye contact with every door, food and toy. Her kids didn't even recognize him 2 days later.
Really enjoying your videos. Your training style makes sense to me. Our 9 mos old English Springer is fairly well behaved at home but highly excitable to new stimulus. Your techniques will are just what we need to help her control herself.
Very well explained and easy to follow. I've been watching your videos for several month now and really like your methods. Thank you for offering them for free. I've learned so much.
I am learning with your videos. Thank you. I think that this looks like parenting, I have 3 grown up sons, and believe me when you put your trust, and teach them to behave it is so easier. But it is hard work , many decision, but it pays back, so I have two puppies (kuvasz) and here I go again. Learning new things. ☺
Malinios? Shes beautiful!!! I love you're channel... I am shocked I haven't seen this episode yet, I am a subscriber (since 2020) and have never missed a video since I discovered you're channel! No bad DOGS!!
FANTASTIC video!!!! Such good information. I plan to share with my rescues fosters as dogs that can engage with their people are immensely more adoptable.
This is really helpful for a couple of dogs that I have in training... I applied your advice and was working very well. You are the best Thomas... You can’t believe how much you help me out to do the right things while training and understand what the dog feeling. Thank you so much
Tom I found your channel out of necessity and I am so thankful for the work you're doing! I have had dogs all my life, learned how to train dogs many moons ago and have had very good results until recently with my rescue Blue healer/ Puerto Rican street dog mix. I'm grateful for your level of dog awareness, demonstration, instruction and will be looking to your videos for more guidance to help. Gracias!
I think I heard you say once that Lakota is a Dutch Shepherd? Made me a little proud as a Dutchman. ;) My dogwalker is struggling with pulling on a leach with my Amstaff of 8 months. He wasnt pulling earlier but is starting now. I know beeing a puller is kind of in his breed.. I think the 'sit at the door' might be good for a good walk? He isnt bolting out normally... With me at least.. thanks for all your amazing video's.
I had three Swissies all of them failed X-rays. Then the EX got them in the split. They are not always the easiest to train. we had 2 with CGC, and one completed 4th class in water resue. This is the first video I've seen with a Swissie.
Everytime when my dog goes out of the crate my dog has to sit and then I will say Okay to release him out of the crate. When he wants to go to the back yard he has to sit and wait until the sliding door opens I step out first then tell him to wait then tell him the release command okay
Thank you so much for your videos. Just adopted a 10 week old mixed breed small breed dog. Looks like a Jack Russell and Dachshund mix. He's always chewing on things even my fingers sometimes. How do you get a puppy to stop biting? Toys are not working. Also, how to potty train a puppy. I take him out 2-3 hours and he still poops in the house - though on a towel. Noticed he likes textured things.
I really try to think of my dog as part of my team. I want her to trust that we are learning together because I can do things she can't and vice versa. My golden is obviously the easiest breed I have owned but I have had some not so calm others.
How do we tell the difference between Dutch and German Shepherds? Best video I’ve seen so far!! Going to start this up tomorrow. Thank you for sharing!!
Great video, Tom. It is helpful that you always demonstrate the proper method of training. In the video you can see Beacon looking straight at you and being focused.
How do I put this into our routine with my 4 stubborn pitties! The second i open the backdoor, it is snarling and jumping and growling ! Its all in preparation for the coming race to the back of the property. I dont have this problem in any other threshold. I can leave the front door open and walk away with no escapee’s. Love your video’s. I always thought my love and affection was enough until I began watching ur channel. Completely changed my life since i was constantly nervous of the inevitable fight caused by guess who? Me! They had no clue what i expected from them!
Lakota is a male malenois or however you spell it. My son has one for his deputy k-9 dog. Very smart & fun to watch. They do have some weird quirks though, for instance it took him a week to get used to his in work car!
There’s no better dog training channel on UA-cam than yours • 10 out of 10 •
I work w dogs in a Humane Society ... most our dogs would not be here if the owners knew a tenth of the stuff in this vid. Best.

@@joannekirkwood496 They don't need a leader, they need positive associations with things they are afraid of and good bonds with people.
The main issue for dog owners is time and effort. They may have had dogs before, but they have busy lives or feel they don’t need to make the effort.
@@sparra8519 - well in a way you are a leader, as in you show them the right things to do. Not leader in a controlling way, leader in kind of like a companion way. I don’t know if I’m making any sense it’s hard to put into words what I’m thinking in my head haha :)

Bad part is people usually think that this is just irritating a dog and being mean to him. Showing the food and taking it away etc. People started treating dogs like humans lately which is just not a good thing.

It seems that teaching my dog to sit, and to stay sitting, is a very important behavior that needs to be done before teaching other behaviors.
I agree with you, it's also probably the easiest command to teach a puppy.
Lakota is Dutch Shepherd I believe. And she’s amazing 😊
LuvMyBelgian Dutch Shepherd are never black unless maybe a mix! Only brindle colorings
I think that she is a malinous.
@@lisagaedike741 Not true.
@@Makado14 i think hawk is the malinois

aww the way he just sat down @8:10 after he was corrected for going for his food 😊

I think I heard you say once that Lakota is a Dutch Shepherd? Made me a little proud as a Dutchman. ;) My dogwalker is struggling with pulling on a leach with my Amstaff of 8 months.

With me at least.. thanks for all your amazing video's.
Very useful 👍
I had three Swissies all of them failed X-rays. Then the EX got them in the split. They are not always the easiest to train. we had 2 with CGC, and one completed 4th class in water resue. This is the first video I've seen with a Swissie.

Thank you so much for your videos. Just adopted a 10 week old mixed breed small breed dog. Looks like a Jack Russell and Dachshund mix. He's always chewing on things even my fingers sometimes. How do you get a puppy to stop biting? Toys are not working. Also, how to potty train a puppy. I take him out 2-3 hours and he still poops in the house - though on a towel. Noticed he likes textured things.
On my journey to become a dog trainer! I have a very long road.
Is lakota a dutch shepherd ?
Can I ask if you are using a prong or a slip ?
Malinois super model 💖🐾
Thanks for a great lesson 👍🏼😊
lakota is a dutch shepard.. i think u said in another video

Great video, Tom. It is helpful that you always demonstrate the proper method of training. In the video you can see Beacon looking straight at you and being focused.
Can you do a video about training dogs to stay in one spot like their bed until released?
Love the clear instructions
How do I put this into our routine with my 4 stubborn pitties! The second i open the backdoor, it is snarling and jumping and growling ! Its all in preparation for the coming race to the back of the property. I dont have this problem in any other threshold. I can leave the front door open and walk away with no escapee’s. Love your video’s. I always thought my love and affection was enough until I began watching ur channel. Completely changed my life since i was constantly nervous of the inevitable fight caused by guess who? Me! They had no clue what i expected from them!
Lakota is a male malenois or however you spell it. My son has one for his deputy k-9 dog. Very smart & fun to watch. They do have some weird quirks though, for instance it took him a week to get used to his in work car!
Uh she's a girl
Great video!!!
Black German shepherd. Maybe a tiny bit of Belgian malenois?
Very helpful thanks 😊 have to ask when break if the dog charge fast shall I let that be? It’s a 10 month old 50 kg mastiff.
My old dog was a Belgian shepherd. That's my vote. They could be twins
Lakota has the same body-shape as Joe Robinet's new dog, Tripper and he's a Dutch Shepherd. Tripper's a brindle, though.
