Another excellent video. I use this task all the time with my SD. My husband uses it to let me know when dinner is ready or if he wants to talk to me (I am deaf). I really like the step-by-step instructions. I think I will work on using falling as a cue.
There's probably no way to get this down without a helper is there? Much as I want to, I know my roommate is getting really annoyed by my training with my dog (or honestly more likely jealous 😜) but whenever I'm doing things with my dog he keeps trying to shut me down. Which I swear makes my pup more sad than me. I will say though that my pup absolutely SLAYED in PetSmart yesterday. Once he calmed down and realized he was inside, i got him some new tasty treats and we practiced a down/stay and I give him an A+! Now if only we could get him to be okay with being around traffic instead of pacing and shaking...🤔
Unfortunately, you will need the secondary person in the house to practice this skill with you. I'm glad your dog did well at Petsmart! It sounds like you may need to take a step back around traffic and practice at a level where he's not over threshold. If you check out my Engage Disengage video, that might be helpful in counter conditioning traffic: ua-cam.com/video/M5OANGG342Y/v-deo.html
Cool! The whiteboard is super helpful (at least for me!). Yesterday, Good News Girl posted (“dog runs into traffic…”) Ring cam footage of a woman walking her Maremma dog when she suddenly seizured and fell. The dog stepped into the street to stop a passing car, whose driver got out to help. Once he began attending to the woman the dog left again, this time to go home and bark at the door until the woman’s sister came out and followed the dog back to his owner. This whole sequence was presented as non-trained. Tho it could easily have been somebody just proofing their “get help” task. (Not sure blocking traffic is a wise behavior to train, tho!) It reminded me of your video on systematically training “intelligent disobedience.” Either way, the behavior was really impressive.
Wow! What a good dog. I've owned a couple Maremmas over the years; they're brilliant. I'm surprised the dog left the handler, though; most of their instincts involve barking, not retrieval (even of humans to help). Impressive!
Barking good! Just barking would’ve gone a long way! “Stop a car to get help from a random human”-wow. Going to home base to bark that something is amiss-seems within normal behavior for an LGD. Farm Dog Podcast covers these breeds well. Haven’t had a Maremma tho fantasized about LGDs as a kid. There’ve been a couple in my extended family (Pyr, AS). Very cool dogs, both. “Brilliant” as well is something I hadn’t considered, tho would definitely grant that in the Anatolian’s case.
I have autism and wanted to train my dog for this incase my parents let me somewhere and im stimming or im out with a freind and im stimming or getting overwellmed. im so exited to try this out and will most likly use it.
I am so excited for this video! Thank you! This is the task that made me want a service dog for myself. My Service Dog in Training is not even 5 months, but I can definitely tell that when we add this one in one day she will be able to grasp it well. This really gave me hope that she and I can do this. I shared this video with my hubby and saved to a playlist. Thank you again!
Yay! I'm so glad it's helpful! Teaching a strong recall ("come" cue) now, will help you be really successful with this task in the future! Happy Training!
@@DoggyU Oh, for sure! Her recall is really strong. Over 90% success rate outside (on a long line) and from across the house with distractions. I recalled her yesterday and she leaped over my other dog to get to me. 🤣 May have to work on her manners with that one. 🤣 We are getting closer to the teenage phase so I am making sure to be really consistent with her and not let my guard down. Thank you again!
@@DoggyU I am ready! (As I can be!) Apparently her mom didn't go through the typical adolescent stage and went from puppyhood to a well mannered dog. I am not banking on it for me, but not gonna lie, it would not hurt my feelings at all if she took after her mom in this case. 😅
So glad you're enjoying this training video! I don't really have a dog that can help with any weight-bearing mobility at this time, as my Koolie is only 40 lbs and my cattle dog is nearly 15. I do have a few videos over on Patreon that may be of use to you, including teaching stair manners as a precursor to balance tasks. If you're looking for courses on mobility tasks, I believe Donna Hill has a few!

Really great break-down of the steps for training this! You make it seem so achievable. I don't expect to need this task for my SD but it's important to know how to train it, bc I have a lot of disabled friends who really will need this info. It's great to be able to answer questions helpfully when folks see you training in public. (I've directed a lot of people in my pup's Obedience class to your channel now, too! Thanks for making such great content freely available!)
I wonder if I can train Freja this task when I get overstimulated in public. I know this is more of a medical alert task for medical service dogs. I wonder how I can train Freja to assist me in finding help. I think she was trying to find help when we got separated from the escalator. The overstimulation is more of a physical thing too as a well. Sometimes it’s hard for me to be in the isles at the store. I am training.Freja to do the guiding and tethering. Her recall is getting a lot better. I am still not ready to train Freja off leash yet because she has been having some behaviors. I can do private lessons with my Petco trainers to train the recall. I started going back into training the stays and duration. Freja still needs a lot of distraction training.
I do, as I trained guide dogs for many years. However, it's a pretty complicated process to train correctly. Hoping to have an entire series on guiding and leading tasks with my next dog, but not until it's developmentally and physically appropriate to undertake that training.
With seizure response dogs do they all have this and/or using the alert button on their task lists or are they often focused on other tasks such as medication retrieval and medication retrieval?
What tasks a dog is trained for depends a lot on the person's disability and how they are going to use the dog in conjunction with other medical interventions. There is no standard if you're owner-training - but organizations whot train seizure dogs may have a set task list that they train.
I wonder if I could modify this with her barking at the helper leading them back to me if I fall in the river fly fishing or have trouble on a hike in the woods? Will she go a distance to find help
This is really meant for indoor use with a known family member or friend. While you could train for the circumstances you're talking about, expecting a dog to go long distances to find help will likely be unreliable. If they are in a service dog capacity, they would also be outside of your immediate control, which I don't believe would fall under legal parameters of service dog work.
Hi ya, I’ve been flowing along as kennel owner who wants to make puppies as ready for service dog work. We use puppy culture and what was always my natures feel for training. Ask is the message you use got a name or is it a method? You’ve developed yourself based on what feels right to teach a dog. I asked this because a lot of what I’ve done over the last 30 something years of my life has been what feels like a natural way to teach a dog and now that there’s names for all these programs I’m trying to work out where mine fits in. But I feel like a little like what you do where it makes sense to teach everything in little stages with simple steps.
I don't think this would be the right task for those situations, as it would be hard to train/proof, the dog wouldn't be under your control in public if they left you (which would be unlikely to fall under the scope of service dog work under the ADA definition), and there is likely a task that would fit that situation better, like pressing a "call for help" emergency alert button.
So my trainer is great but in Australia service Dog training is not something that’s been around for many years so even now most qualified trainers often don’t have the same experience as someone who’s owned the kennel and looked after behaviours of dogs for 20 years of our life…. Therefore I find a lot of questions I ask her she’s not able to answer one thing. I often ask is what I’ve noticed a lot of people questioning and that is how do we know what task to teach our dogs? Especially when we had multiple medical issues. For example I have hypos I’m not diabetic and I have natural alerting dogs to sugar shifts but my natural sensor also alerts to other things that I’m trying to work out what they are. For example they may be low blood pressure or low, oxygen saturations, how do I help her to show me what she’s alerting for?
Not sure how to contact you but is it possible for me to hire you to train my service dog? i’m working on having her trained as a cardiac alert because of my heart problems & also as a psychiatric sd because of my mental health issues. I would love to hire you if that’s possible!
Unfortunately, I am not taking any more clients. Putting out these videos is a full time job! LOL. I do have a few courses however that you can find here: courses.doggyu.com/
I'm trying to train my GSD/husky/Rottweiler. But I am being told that part of the CGC test will fail her if they pet her and get fur on their hands. She has fur she sheds control what do I do ?
That is not a requirement according to the CGC rules. The dog needs to be in good physical condition and well-groomed. It is unreasonable to expect the dog will not shed.
Another excellent video. I use this task all the time with my SD. My husband uses it to let me know when dinner is ready or if he wants to talk to me (I am deaf). I really like the step-by-step instructions. I think I will work on using falling as a cue.
Yes! This is essentially a 2-way alert, often used for alerting a deaf handler to a sound in the environment and bringing them to it.
Very helpful!! ❤

That sounds really impressive! I haven't seen that - I'll have to check it out!
And I'm glad the white board was helpful! I bought it specifically for this video (and to have for future videos) :)

Nice video. Make sure you treat the helper too.

You’re welcome!
Thank you so much for this! I’m going to start training my girl tomorrow! I would love it if you would post more mobility training videos

Do you know how you would teach to find an exit?
I do, as I trained guide dogs for many years. However, it's a pretty complicated process to train correctly. Hoping to have an entire series on guiding and leading tasks with my next dog, but not until it's developmentally and physically appropriate to undertake that training.
How will the person now the dogs is trying to get help? Should the jump or boop?
You could definitely teach a more specific alert. Nose boop, or bringing a specific item, etc.
With seizure response dogs do they all have this and/or using the alert button on their task lists or are they often focused on other tasks such as medication retrieval and medication retrieval?
What tasks a dog is trained for depends a lot on the person's disability and how they are going to use the dog in conjunction with other medical interventions. There is no standard if you're owner-training - but organizations whot train seizure dogs may have a set task list that they train.

Generally, the way I split behaviors down is called ... splitting! LOL. I also use shaping, luring, and capturing to teach behavior.
What if you live alone but would like to train this for when you are at places like the dog club or show?
I don't think this would be the right task for those situations, as it would be hard to train/proof, the dog wouldn't be under your control in public if they left you (which would be unlikely to fall under the scope of service dog work under the ADA definition), and there is likely a task that would fit that situation better, like pressing a "call for help" emergency alert button.

I have also trained my girl to bark on command to get attention. I fall and break.
I don't generally teach barking as a tasking behavior, but I could see why you might want to do that!
I'm trying to train my GSD/husky/Rottweiler. But I am being told that part of the CGC test will fail her if they pet her and get fur on their hands. She has fur she sheds control what do I do ?
That is not a requirement according to the CGC rules. The dog needs to be in good physical condition and well-groomed. It is unreasonable to expect the dog will not shed.
This is brilliant training. Thank you for sharing.
