This is how I feel too, and mine's just a 20-lb. Schnauzer mix. She pulled me on every walk and I got to where I didn't want to take her on walks! She is so much better on a leash now, and she is 5 also.
@Mk-vh9ry Gentle Leader $20. Your dog will not like it but will learn to tolerate it. It works better than a choke collar. Needs to be adjusted to fit right.
Not a boring video. People need to see that they aren’t failing because they didn’t get results in 6 minutes, see the immense amount of patience, repetition, and consistency it can take to get some dogs to even walk loose lead and check in. Enjoyed this a lot.
That is totally true. My dog was the same way. One of the trainers told me to put on a waist leash on and let her pull to get exercise or take her to the dog park. smh
Update on Ace - I have gotten him involved in playing some of the games ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxECnmSvBSv_NGWx4_ChD73pF3NYZwI2F3 and I can see a difference in his confidence already! My other dog played along and he became intrigued - now its a daily part of our routine - about 3 times a day we do the shell game and the muffin tin game. I am so grateful for coming upon your training techniques!
YOU ARE AWESOME! I rescued a 3yr old German shepard/Golden retriever street dog who was in the pound 9 months. He jumped, mouthed, ran thru doors/gates and on 5th day attacked my 9yr old golden retriever. Kneeing did nothing. I watched your training. Put a regular collar and leash on him, 4 corrections inside, 10 minutes outside work, he attacked my dog once in that time and got the correction. I walk into him with the knee combo. MIRACLE. No more bad behavior. The mouthing stopped along with jumping even off leash now. I am a tiny senior lady. If I can be boss, anyone can do this, if they just listen to you. ThANK YOU.
"This leash means you don't get to do whatever you want." Took me a while to realize I had to communicate that to my dog. I put on the leash she has to stay still until I tell her she could move.
I’ll say it again this guy is a million times better than Cesar Milan. He shows you the real process. Not just “oh just be calm and confident and bam they’re magically better”. Love these!!
That guy does a reality show, he is good the way he does with the training, so, no need to bring one down. I've learned from both of them, they helped our dogs with their techniques.
I don't think Cesar has a place in this conversation. I like Cesar and watch his stuff on occasion. I especially appreciate Joel because he shows us the truth, with random misbehaving "problem" dogs, and shows us the failures and the process, and explains his methods, explains doggie psychology, but especially I love Joel because I try his techniques with MY problem dog, a 5 month Belgian Malinois, and Joel's approaches WORK!! My Malinois is now a great walking buddy, great running companion, AND, what blows me away, now she RUNS alongside us while BIKING and is a safe and perfect joy when doing so! (We limit the biking mileage to avoid growth plate damage til she's full grown)
I agree- I love and respect Caesar so much and have learned so much from him, but his videos often down answer the in between steps of how to conquer a problem. Also, it’s not just as easy as saying “have calm assertive energy,” especially as a woman as we can tend to be more anxious. I always strive for calm assertive but on my walk this morning I was really struggling with my own nerves when a problem dog in our neighborhood was off leash. I want to be able to stay calm but everything in me says “danger” so it’s a battle with myself to keep that calm assertive energy and something I know I have to work on, but also, there’s no quick fix for me or my dog, just lots of practice! I’m thankful for the practical advice in this video!
I adopteed a Dane mix 3 weeks ago from Texas. She was found abandoned with 8 puppies in an apartment. Skin and bones with sores from laying on the floor. It took18 volunteers and 2 1/2 days to come to my house. Dramatized wasn't the word for it. I found your videos extraordinary and since she seems to feel at home here now, I hope to start some training right afterI go and buy a gentle leader for her. The only thing she knows is SIT!! I am 78 and would have no fun being pulled by any dog. Wish me luck and determination !!
This video is fantastic because it shows the amount of effort required - not a sped-up clip with a perfect dog after 10 mins, making us all feel we're failing. I even stop-correct-start with no dog now...
"smell the grass, boring video" absolutely incorrect. super informative and insightful. this is EXACTLY what I needed to see. I can finally get to work on my dog the right way
This video was packed full of useful info. The resolve to stick with “the message” is what owners (and many trainers) need to see. Just bc people want instant results, doesn’t mean most dogs will give ‘em to you. Improvement takes reinforcing the new rules over and over! Thanks for not cutting it off, but continuing to show how long it can take, walk after walk. 👏👏👏
I have a 9 month old carolina dog and I've been doing this for 3 days and major improvements. It was tough walking my dog outside. I actually hated it.
Oh my gosh I could watch you train her for an hour plus! Thank you thank you for this excellent training video! My new rescue has settled in now for 3 weeks and is beginning to show her true colors. This explanation you have given me is awesome and will help ME learn what I'm supposed to do. I've watched so MANY videos and the dogs are already halfway trained! I need to see what to do from ground zero. Thank you so much!😮❤
I thought I was doing something wrong because I had to stop every single step when I first started training my dog. Now I see it is all part of the process. Best video ever
"Why would I talk to a dog that doesnt listen to me" should also be a t-shirt. Videos like this 1 give me so much hope with the hound im fostering. Ive had walks with 20+ corrections and i start to feel awful. But i need to remain strong and remember the dog can stop it at anytime just by keeping me in sight.
I've been training my stubborn, large, rescue dog (3 trainers) for over 3 years. Occasional lunging at cats is still plaguing me, to the point of multiple injuries to my body. This video was definitely helpful. Fortunately, my dog now walks nicely on the leash when no cats are around, even managing to ignore most cats. But it's exhausting training at this level and I understand why a lot of rescue dogs end up back at shelters.
Does she bark and lunge at the cats or just lunge? We have a lot of feral cats in our area. My one 100lb Dobe sometimes gets distracted by them. As soon as I see them, usually before the dog, will say, No bark or the walk is over. If the dog only lunges, will say No pulling or the walk is over. You have to be willing to follow through that very first time so they know you're not crying wolf. Then the next walk, maybe later in the evening, same thing. No pulling/barking or the walk is over, your choice. You'll be amazed at the difference. You can actually see them thinking, hmmm, do I want to keep walking with Mom or Dad or do I want to freak out and go back home right away? Works like a charm. You can also do about turns - 180 degree turns, but if they're already pulling, it's too late. Hope that helps. Joel's Rottweiler named Creed video is like the foundation video for loose leash walking and reactivity.
Get a realistic plush toy cat! Set it up in your house, yard, etc, so you can practice. Desensitize with treats, correct, whatever works, but on your terms. Set up the cat in surprise spots for walks, etc. It really does help!!!
@@1hymenoptera Problem with this is, many dogs only react to cats when they move. In our house one dog (out of four) always goes after one cat (out of three). Why? because the cat gets nervous around that one hyperactive dog and when she starts running away the dog's hunting instincts start. When she stays where she is then the dog chills out
@@lisap2405 get a friend to put a leash around it and "walk" it around. I see another dog trainer do this with fake dog plushies. Try to see if you can get it to smell like a cat and don't really wash it so I keeps the smell for training.
@@bellw5834 Do you really think that walking a plushie works if the dogs all know what s real cat looks like? Sounds weird to me 🤔 I mean they can think that's another animal for hunting or whatever but a cat? 🤔
Finally a real video real context and real work. I think anybody trying to get any dog should watch this and understand what it means to train the dog and how much effort you need to put in to have this so called a ‘ good dog’.
By far, the best trainer on youtube. I have been working with my 9month old Dutch Shepard (adopted her at 8mos, off the streets) and just barely found your channel last week. I appreciate how you deliver your instructions to the viewers especially. Reassuring what is or isn’t important, as it is happening, and that “we can do this all day” if we need to. Situation: Today was the first day I had to run home to walk my dog so I could return to work an extra few hours. I grabbed the leash and was headed out the door, as I only had 30 minutes, completely forgetting I needed to release my dog from her sit-stay inside the doorway to begin the walk. When the leash pulled, I turned to look and it was my pup, sitting inside waiting to be told it was “ok” to begin a walk. I almost cried. The training works! I’m so very thankful! For me, you are the GOAT!
Recommendation: Cesar Milan is good too. I rather watch videos of Joel here but Cesar rather works with real real problem dogs like agression against anything that ends in instant biting or whatever and for this, Cesar's Videos are really helpful. Not only if your dog is aggressive but for watching oncoming dogs and their reaction too :)
@@lisap2405 Exactly! What I love about both Caesar and Joel not only work with dogs, but with the owners as well! Both of them need "help", and I really like that they consider it too. Plus, it's great that they don't work with the dog alone, but make the dogs interact with others, such as encounters with Joel or Caesar's packs :))
@@essyr1715 Well those trainers realized how dogs work. My professor always said one thing about programming a computer: "The problem is in 99% in front of the computer" and this statement is more than true with dog owners. You can only help a dog if you help the owner realize that a dog will never act like some human. That is still the biggest problem why dogs bite without any warning. Humans never see the body language warning signs and train the dogs never to growl so they will bite anyway someday. Or they try to train theor dogs wihl shockcollars and that torture stuff... Socialization as such is the problem of about 70% of aggressive dogs
@@lisap2405 Couldn't agree more. Many owners go for tortures to "educate" their dogs. They put shockcollars on, they beat them up whenever something happens, without even trying to find a good solution to their problems. Or better, people like those don't even deserve a dog!
My dog does that exact freak out with a gentle leader on sometimes and it was so valuable to see how you handled that. He’s a big, strong dog, but I can manage it with the gentle leader on. So good to see how exasperating the pulling can be, I do that, walking and correcting and going geez……now I know, don’t give up, instead of thinking I’m doing it wrong.
My labradoodle doesn’t the “freak out” too on gentle leader, but at least I can control her without her knocking me down. Progress, not perfection. It works.
Having confidence in your method is a big part of the battle in my experience. If you feel like you know what you are doing and trust the process, I have learned that is huge for me. Anything hesitant in dog training is likely not to work.
This is just what I needed...... Amazing information...the verbal and demonstrative cuing ...real life!! I did my best to do the techniques with my dog today and plan to watch/rewatch the video . Thank you!!!!
These videos are INVALUABLE. This has saved me and my dog on walks, his pulling is 99% fixed because of these very simple yet VERY EFFECTIVE fundamentals. Love it.
How can this be a boring video! Much appreciated your filming uncut realtime video training with all super useful narratives. I tried this on the street and don’t care other people watching thinking like I was abusing my dog. Those every 10-step treat days are over!
@@asp1213 I am just lucky he was able to get her in! It was a long, desolate, 7-hour drive from Phoenix. Fortunately my sister was able to make the trip with me. We got some good family time & she was able to console me on the drive home. I definitely KNOW this will be good for her, but it was hard to leave her so far from home.
@@voxaz7284 I totally get the separation anxiety you are experiencing for sure! I also totally get driving so far to get her there. If he were anywhere on the East Coast, I'd have my dogs there for sure 😀 looking forward to seeing her progress!
We also have an ex street dog, ours is from Cyprus. He was so human avoidant that no one wanted to adopt him so he had been in kennels for 3 years. He was pretty traumatised. So we had him flown home to the UK to see if we could help him. We've had him a year and his fear of people is slowly improving as we build trust. So now the hard work begins! He displays a lot of the same body language as Ava. Super independent, flighty. Thank you for rescuing your gorgeous girl and I'm very grateful I can now learn from her too. She's helping other dogs by being a UA-cam star so thank you for taking her to the Beckmans ❤
This video is game changing. Thank you for starting from scratch with a real problem dog. I'm sick of videos where there was obviously tons of offscreen prep work that we didn't get to see.
My dog is about equal to the dog in this video. After an hour walk he is already a different dog. Amazing! You saved me a lot of money! I love that you didnt need treats, and the process is so simple to emulate. Liked and subbed!
Just started following you and have to say I like your techniques. What I particularly like is how you reenforce the need for patience. It takes as long as it takes etc…
The amount of knowledge you've imparted through this video is invaluable, especially the bits regarding owners not doing the process, which you've laid out to be quite black and white. I.e: dog leaves, dog gets a correction. AFAIK there's no other free materials out there that demonstrates the use of gentle leader as well as this has. Thank you, Mr. Beckman!
At last a real world scenario that I think most folk can relate to with dogs that are like this and that's why they are here watching this video. Many thanks you are a great inspiration.
There was nothing boring about this video. This was EXACTLY the type of training video for dogs with leash reacitivity that I've been scouring UA-cam to find. Thank you so much for making and sharing it unedited in full so that we can see the whole process!
I got a gentle leader for my dog. He is very bad at pulling, made my hand bleed once from him tugging so hard. Once I watched this video, and a few other videos of yours, (with the help of the lead as well) he was doing so amazingly. Stopping with me almost every time, and sometimes sitting when we stop too. Amazing videos, thank you very much.
I actually felt you much softer on this video, don’t let this over sensible people get to you!! Your methods work and you are not causing any trauma nor harm on any of these dogs, as always thank you for the work, real life demonstrations and patience
Wow! I can't believe how helpful this was. We recently got a rescue with significant reactivity. I watched a number of other reactivity videos, and although they helped a bit, I knew I missing something. What you do better than all the other videos out there on this topic is this: 1. The necessity of starting the process before you even go out the door. I was waiting until I was outside, and I see now how that was too late. 2. The frequency of the stop and correct. Many times per minute. I was waiting far too long, and I realize now how I was quickly losing the dog because I let his mind wander too long. 3. The timing of the pop. "When the dog is no longer with you" was a revelation about the timing for me. It seems obvious now, but other trainers were making the correction without explaining what exactly it was that was their cue it was time for a correction. I can't believe how quickly the dog responded to this training. He understood very quickly what I was asking of him, and this technique set him up for multiple successes per minute. About 15 min into our first session using this, wouldn't you know it, a deer jumps out in front of us. The dog reacted , but with an intensity that was a fraction of what would have happened the day before. He's still got a ways to go, but this video provided me with the tools I needed to make a significant leap forward in working with him on this issue.
@@BDTraining At what age do you recommend using the gentle leader AND/OR expecting real results? Have a 4MO English Springer that doesn’t seem to acknowledge the normal leash tug! Have a gentle leader but haven’t introduced it yet.
@@caseysmith8090 he has a video that explains exactly what you should expect from a dog at every stage/age of development. 4 months you should be focusing on other things. Your dog is too young for this yet.
This guy is not a dog whisperer... He is a dog listener in his own very direct way. Invaluable advice for ANY dog owner. I love the way you let the dog be free as long as the leash is loose.
idk when you said.. "now, that's a real ending.." teared me up... the dog needed those correction much more than she knows... for her safety and well being...
Oh wow. This dog could be the twin of my dog, who was dumped in my yard a month ago. He is a sweetheart- until we go a’walkin’. This video is SO helpful. N
🚩 Joel, I think it's sufficient to keep filming in 1080p rather than 4k because youtube will always throttle the footage and downgrade it due to bandwidth. As the viewer, we won't see the difference. You will just end up using more memory on your computer by filming in 4k and stopping more often due to camera overheating. I don't know if you ever considered it but have you thought of getting a 3 axis gimbal for the camera? It basically keeps the camera level so the footage is smooth when you're moving. Your channel has lots of moving footage cause obviously it's of moving dogs. It would make it clearer for the viewer and is better than digitally reducing the motion. Digitally doing it will lower quality. I feel adding a gimbal for smoother footage would be better value for your channel than the 4k. Just my opinion since you asked. Thanks as always for the great content. I hope you see the comment cause I know you get a ton.
@@RayleighCriterion That's an unfair comparison. A fair comparison would be 4k at 60 FPS vs. 1080p at 60 FPS, and there is a noticeable difference between those two resolutions depending on the viewer's display size.
this dude. this is what everyone needs help with. not the perfect scenario where the dog already has a good obedience base. most people/families just want a dog that is manageable and friendly. keep at it dude.
Please don't ever feel like your video is boring. It's amazing progress, and yes - it takes time. Just like you say when it comes to training "I can do this all day", we can watch all day to make sure we are getting all of the information in and see that it isn't just immediate progress. Great job, great video - thank you so much for your patience
This video was my favorite!! My dog behaves EXACTLY like this. He's about a third of the size but so strong & stubborn. I appreciated seeing the struggles & then the improvement at the end was GOLD..thank you Joel🙏 It gives me hope that I can one day enjoy my walks with my boy♥️ Your teachings are priceless💯
Thanks for these posts Beckman. Just got a 6 month old shepherd/husky cross as a companion for our 13 year old mix who has survived many other dogs. Turns out the puppy is a lot more dog reactive than the previous owner led me to believe. Had a plan to try to train but tweaked it after watching your videos and it is working. The Halti collar makes all the difference in changing the problems dog's focus.
just found you today. i've got a 6 month old aussie and am going to utilize your videos. i think you're using the right mix of positive and corrective reinforcement. i'm glad you're here!
This video helped me a lot. My dog now comes back to me when he starts to get ahead of me. It took a lot of persistence from me but I trusted your word. I liked that you kept the video going while still correcting her. Takes time and seeing you take the time helped me to commit to the time too. Appreciate the video! 👌🏽😃
Honestly your videos motivate me to work with my dog, thank you for putting these type of videos out there 🥰 I have a jerky mutt who likes to be mean towards other males, he is a handful and your videos give me hope that I can change his behavior and strength to continue and not give up! I struggle with anxiety so working with him is harder than it needs to be for me but at the same time I work on him, with him and on myself. Thank you for being "raw" and honest in your videos, actually showing real life stuff and helping dogs and dog owners across the world! ❤
Your videos have changed my life and my dogs for the better. I didn’t want to use a choke collar, and your methods of using the dogs weight as it meets the end of the leash have worked incredibly well for me. I work at a big pet store and I advocate for the gentle leaders as often as I can, and recommend your channel.
Helps me feel good about the small progress I am making with my street rescue. She acted exactly like this dog and believe me…. It takes a lot of time and patience! Great video.
Best video for leash reactivity! I'm following every step with my 2 extremely reactive chihuahuas! And I'm happy to report that it's working. Thank you.
And for so many dogs it’s a foreign world to be w/a person, not be in no person’s world w/just dogs & learn to trust ppl in lots of ways. It’s awesome to see Joel gently teach this dog. Great to see her again in 6-12mos w/more work! Thank you!!!!!
Nice example of a dog that didn’t get properly shaped to the leash when it was younger. My rescue Cattle Dog acted a lot like that on walks when I first got it. Lots of work to fix it when they’re older.
Letting her sniff at 18:25 was awesome. She might having been trying to actively avoid the other dog by sniffing and she deserves to be rewarded for choosing that over barking and lunging
This is a good one I needed. One of my dogs is always nervous and scared, especially when she’s being corrected or told what to do. She automatically assumes she needs to be super shameful. So it was good to see how to balance correcting with helping the dog feel loved and comfortable.
Great video! This is what dog owners need. We need to see that the training requires the repetition, the stopping, the correcting, and try again - over and over. The impression so many of the other trainers give, is that problems are supposed to be resolved in a half hour. That just isn’t real life. So thankful that your videos are created to meet the reality where it is.
I really like that you show the whole process. I usually see...Dog not behaving, a little bit of working with the dog, and them BOOM....amazing dog! That's not real life! Thank you for showing us the "real life" version. It's incredibly helpful! Great videos and great work!!! Thank you!!!
Oh my word, this dog acts exactly like my 4 1/2 yr old female Bull Terrier. She drags me all over. I’ve been thru breast cancer treatments & surgery, so she’s been able to take advantage of my lack of strength. I’m definitely going to try your method !!!!
thanks for doing a video with a “real dog” in terms of pulling and freaking out at other dogs. Those of us who adopt rescued dogs, particularly dogs who were neglected or abused, I think we need the reminder that our dogs need structure, consistency, clear instructions, and calm leadership. Love and treats and affection cannot heal, on their own.
Joel's sensitivity and intuition are exceptional. Outstanding video . I can't imagine giving this a "thumbs down" ... this was miraculous. I'd like to see anyone make this kind of progress, this fast with ANY other method (except constant liverwurst delivery). This is hard work, physically. My only problem with myself is that neurological damage and weakness makes it difficult.
My dog is a year and a half old and used to be a big puller . I used your loose leash walking method and noticed improvements. But whenever we see another dog he wants to get to them. He is not aggressive. He just wants to meet the other dog. But its funny cause at the dog park he is such a scaredy cat. Anyway im over him freaking out on walks because I’m small and he’s 80 lbs and he has pulled me to the ground twice. It’s embarrassing. And frustrating. So Immediately after this video i went and bought a gentle leader and OMG! What a difference. He was heeling perfectly. We also saw a dog on our walk and he freaked out a bit but i was able to manage him. We passed the other dog just fine. I was so proud of my dog and myself. Best $20 I’ve spent.
Thank you. Most of this is old hat for me, but it really helps to see a"trainer" struggle to get the point across, with a fix that isn't instant. Thank you for emphasizing improvement instead of perfection.
Been working with my 5 month old Aussie. Raised for 4 months with 4 adult dogs and very little human contact. Watched you 3 video’s with the 3 year old Aussie and “Prince”. All very informative. Implementing one point in particular: “Loose leash”. Great principle and has changed my dog in just 2 sessions. Thank you!
Excellent video, all the way through! We recently adopted a rescue pup. He’s great… but as you say, a beast! Nearly 60 pounds of pittie, So Much Energy!!! The gentle leader just looks so lightweight. I appreciated the part where she flipped complexly out and the leader didn’t fail. Thank you!
This video was really important for me to see. Wow. I thought it was just me being ineffective w my corrections cause I’ve been working on reactivity w my dog for a little bit now. He’s gotten so much better than before we started (we can actually make it through a whole walk on a loose leash now) but he still leaves me way too often when there’s distractions esp if there’s a barking dog. So it’s nice to know see how long & how many corrections it can take even professional trainers to correct certain behaviors that have been reinforced throughout the years. Thank you for showing us this!
Thank you so much for using real dogs in real situations. I have watched a lot of dog training videos, and l used your call technique this morning on our walk down to the creek to feed the wild ducks. I practiced the call method all the way down the drive. When we got to the creek a Hawk flew out. Unfortunately the Hawk had killed one of the ducks. My Catahoula puppy got very excited and went to chase after the Hawk. I used the call technique and he was a good boy and came back. To have successfully used the technique in a simulation overload situation has been very encouraging. I often go to our local settlement and hang out at the cafe. The village dogs walk freely around, so Brin gets a lot of socialisation. He is only allowed to interact with the other dogs when l permit it. Otherwise he has to sit at my feet and chill while l drink my coffee and talk with the locals. My next challenge is teaching my pup to walk nicely on the leach. Thank you again
What a fantastic dog trainer he is what a big improvement in the dog at the end of this video well done ✅ if i had a problem with my dog i who'd call the Beckman's dog training center just love this trainer ...
This was so helpful! I saw my dog in this video the entire time and will implement these techniques with her. She is a smart, clever girl. When the standard is raised she adjusts. I have faith this will help our walking relationship. Thanks a bunch, Beckman.
Your method has my pit mix walking and running loose leash for the first time in her 5 year life after training at 2 other trainers!!!
This is how I feel too, and mine's just a 20-lb. Schnauzer mix. She pulled me on every walk and I got to where I didn't want to take her on walks! She is so much better on a leash now, and she is 5 also.
😊🎉
What is this training leash called?
@Mk-vh9ry Gentle Leader $20. Your dog will not like it but will learn to tolerate it. It works better than a choke collar. Needs to be adjusted to fit right.
yes my also pit mix with belgian malanois walk next to me for the first time in 6 years.
Not a boring video. People need to see that they aren’t failing because they didn’t get results in 6 minutes, see the immense amount of patience, repetition, and consistency it can take to get some dogs to even walk loose lead and check in. Enjoyed this a lot.
Very good , thanks. I'm trying to train dogs in the pound so they will be accepted into a home . Sometimes it's a challenge!
That's my dog - you are right on
That is totally true. My dog was the same way. One of the trainers told me to put on a waist leash on and let her pull to get exercise or take her to the dog park. smh
@@colinpope2832You are amazing, thank you for helping find loving homes for these angels ❤
Such a valid point!
Update on Ace - I have gotten him involved in playing some of the games ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxECnmSvBSv_NGWx4_ChD73pF3NYZwI2F3 and I can see a difference in his confidence already! My other dog played along and he became intrigued - now its a daily part of our routine - about 3 times a day we do the shell game and the muffin tin game. I am so grateful for coming upon your training techniques!
YOU ARE AWESOME! I rescued a 3yr old German shepard/Golden retriever street dog who was in the pound 9 months. He jumped, mouthed, ran thru doors/gates and on 5th day attacked my 9yr old golden retriever. Kneeing did nothing. I watched your training. Put a regular collar and leash on him, 4 corrections inside, 10 minutes outside work, he attacked my dog once in that time and got the correction. I walk into him with the knee combo. MIRACLE. No more bad behavior. The mouthing stopped along with jumping even off leash now. I am a tiny senior lady. If I can be boss, anyone can do this, if they just listen to you. ThANK YOU.
This gives me hope. I'm so discouraged with my dog 😞.
You go boss lady!!
agreed, loved hearing your story
While he teaches, you inspire.....
This gives me so much hope. I rescued an 80lb Malinos and boy does he think he rules the roost.
"This leash means you don't get to do whatever you want."
Took me a while to realize I had to communicate that to my dog. I put on the leash she has to stay still until I tell her she could move.
I think THIS is the dog soooo many of us can relate too ha ha! Thank you for showing us 'reality dog training' today! Camera looks really nice too.
Truly.
This is my yorkie lol
This is the example dog we normal people needed.
100% ❤ My old weim many years ago pulled me out the door so hard that he drug me on the cement till I could get the handle off. It's so embarrassing.
I really want to see more of this dog because this is exactly what I have with my dog.
Same
Joel's Videos are very often with dogs like this one, maybe a bit less intense but still very helpful, just look for leash reactivity guys :)
Same
Joel this is NOT a boring video. It’s packed with real world interesting goodies on probably the most common problem with rescue dogs.
I’ll say it again this guy is a million times better than Cesar Milan. He shows you the real process. Not just “oh just be calm and confident and bam they’re magically better”. Love these!!
That guy does a reality show, he is good the way he does with the training, so, no need to bring one down. I've learned from both of them, they helped our dogs with their techniques.
I don't think Cesar has a place in this conversation. I like Cesar and watch his stuff on occasion. I especially appreciate Joel because he shows us the truth, with random misbehaving "problem" dogs, and shows us the failures and the process, and explains his methods, explains doggie psychology, but especially I love Joel because I try his techniques with MY problem dog, a 5 month Belgian Malinois, and Joel's approaches WORK!! My Malinois is now a great walking buddy, great running companion, AND, what blows me away, now she RUNS alongside us while BIKING and is a safe and perfect joy when doing so! (We limit the biking mileage to avoid growth plate damage til she's full grown)
Cesar focuses a lot on attitude and the energy that you should have. But a lot of people are not able to get into that mood and vibe easily.
I agree- I love and respect Caesar so much and have learned so much from him, but his videos often down answer the in between steps of how to conquer a problem. Also, it’s not just as easy as saying “have calm assertive energy,” especially as a woman as we can tend to be more anxious. I always strive for calm assertive but on my walk this morning I was really struggling with my own nerves when a problem dog in our neighborhood was off leash. I want to be able to stay calm but everything in me says “danger” so it’s a battle with myself to keep that calm assertive energy and something I know I have to work on, but also, there’s no quick fix for me or my dog, just lots of practice! I’m thankful for the practical advice in this video!
I adopteed a Dane mix 3 weeks ago from Texas. She was found abandoned with 8 puppies in an apartment. Skin and bones with sores from laying on the floor. It took18 volunteers and 2 1/2 days to come to my house. Dramatized wasn't the word for it. I found your videos extraordinary and since she seems to feel at home here now, I hope to start some training right afterI go and buy a gentle leader for her. The only thing she knows is SIT!! I am 78 and would have no fun being pulled by any dog. Wish me luck and determination !!
This video is fantastic because it shows the amount of effort required - not a sped-up clip with a perfect dog after 10 mins, making us all feel we're failing. I even stop-correct-start with no dog now...
"smell the grass, boring video" absolutely incorrect. super informative and insightful. this is EXACTLY what I needed to see. I can finally get to work on my dog the right way
Ava’s eyes are stunning. These corrections will change her life, and save it.
This video was packed full of useful info. The resolve to stick with “the message” is what owners (and many trainers) need to see. Just bc people want instant results, doesn’t mean most dogs will give ‘em to you. Improvement takes reinforcing the new rules over and over! Thanks for not cutting it off, but continuing to show how long it can take, walk after walk. 👏👏👏
I agree, and second that.
Agree!!
I have a 9 month old carolina dog and I've been doing this for 3 days and major improvements. It was tough walking my dog outside. I actually hated it.
Oh my gosh I could watch you train her for an hour plus! Thank you thank you for this excellent training video! My new rescue has settled in now for 3 weeks and is beginning to show her true colors. This explanation you have given me is awesome and will help ME learn what I'm supposed to do. I've watched so MANY videos and the dogs are already halfway trained! I need to see what to do from ground zero. Thank you so much!😮❤
I thought I was doing something wrong because I had to stop every single step when I first started training my dog. Now I see it is all part of the process. Best video ever
"Why would I talk to a dog that doesnt listen to me" should also be a t-shirt. Videos like this 1 give me so much hope with the hound im fostering. Ive had walks with 20+ corrections and i start to feel awful. But i need to remain strong and remember the dog can stop it at anytime just by keeping me in sight.
Definitely need a Beckman’s Dog Training shirt that says “I don’t care, we’ll do this all day.”
Add "and leaving and stopping" love it
God bless Ava’s parents for adopting her.
You are never boring. You show people what they need to see.
I've been training my stubborn, large, rescue dog (3 trainers) for over 3 years. Occasional lunging at cats is still plaguing me, to the point of multiple injuries to my body. This video was definitely helpful. Fortunately, my dog now walks nicely on the leash when no cats are around, even managing to ignore most cats. But it's exhausting training at this level and I understand why a lot of rescue dogs end up back at shelters.
Does she bark and lunge at the cats or just lunge? We have a lot of feral cats in our area. My one 100lb Dobe sometimes gets distracted by them. As soon as I see them, usually before the dog, will say, No bark or the walk is over. If the dog only lunges, will say No pulling or the walk is over. You have to be willing to follow through that very first time so they know you're not crying wolf. Then the next walk, maybe later in the evening, same thing. No pulling/barking or the walk is over, your choice. You'll be amazed at the difference. You can actually see them thinking, hmmm, do I want to keep walking with Mom or Dad or do I want to freak out and go back home right away? Works like a charm. You can also do about turns - 180 degree turns, but if they're already pulling, it's too late. Hope that helps. Joel's Rottweiler named Creed video is like the foundation video for loose leash walking and reactivity.
Get a realistic plush toy cat! Set it up in your house, yard, etc, so you can practice. Desensitize with treats, correct, whatever works, but on your terms. Set up the cat in surprise spots for walks, etc. It really does help!!!
@@1hymenoptera Problem with this is, many dogs only react to cats when they move. In our house one dog (out of four) always goes after one cat (out of three). Why? because the cat gets nervous around that one hyperactive dog and when she starts running away the dog's hunting instincts start. When she stays where she is then the dog chills out
@@lisap2405 get a friend to put a leash around it and "walk" it around.
I see another dog trainer do this with fake dog plushies.
Try to see if you can get it to smell like a cat and don't really wash it so I keeps the smell for training.
@@bellw5834 Do you really think that walking a plushie works if the dogs all know what s real cat looks like? Sounds weird to me 🤔 I mean they can think that's another animal for hunting or whatever but a cat? 🤔
Finally a real video real context and real work. I think anybody trying to get any dog should watch this and understand what it means to train the dog and how much effort you need to put in to have this so called a ‘ good dog’.
By far, the best trainer on youtube. I have been working with my 9month old Dutch Shepard (adopted her at 8mos, off the streets) and just barely found your channel last week. I appreciate how you deliver your instructions to the viewers especially. Reassuring what is or isn’t important, as it is happening, and that “we can do this all day” if we need to. Situation: Today was the first day I had to run home to walk my dog so I could return to work an extra few hours. I grabbed the leash and was headed out the door, as I only had 30 minutes, completely forgetting I needed to release my dog from her sit-stay inside the doorway to begin the walk. When the leash pulled, I turned to look and it was my pup, sitting inside waiting to be told it was “ok” to begin a walk. I almost cried. The training works! I’m so very thankful! For me, you are the GOAT!
Recommendation: Cesar Milan is good too. I rather watch videos of Joel here but Cesar rather works with real real problem dogs like agression against anything that ends in instant biting or whatever and for this, Cesar's Videos are really helpful. Not only if your dog is aggressive but for watching oncoming dogs and their reaction too :)
@@lisap2405 Exactly! What I love about both Caesar and Joel not only work with dogs, but with the owners as well! Both of them need "help", and I really like that they consider it too. Plus, it's great that they don't work with the dog alone, but make the dogs interact with others, such as encounters with Joel or Caesar's packs :))
@@essyr1715 Well those trainers realized how dogs work. My professor always said one thing about programming a computer: "The problem is in 99% in front of the computer" and this statement is more than true with dog owners. You can only help a dog if you help the owner realize that a dog will never act like some human. That is still the biggest problem why dogs bite without any warning. Humans never see the body language warning signs and train the dogs never to growl so they will bite anyway someday. Or they try to train theor dogs wihl shockcollars and that torture stuff... Socialization as such is the problem of about 70% of aggressive dogs
@@lisap2405 Couldn't agree more. Many owners go for tortures to "educate" their dogs. They put shockcollars on, they beat them up whenever something happens, without even trying to find a good solution to their problems. Or better, people like those don't even deserve a dog!
Nice, that dog is as stubborn as my dog, watching your videos, I can finally enjoy my walks with my dog.
This is the best video, thanks for actually showing the training and not just giving us a commercial
This video has no boring parts. It's a good video from the beginning to the end. Thanks for sharing
My dog does that exact freak out with a gentle leader on sometimes and it was so valuable to see how you handled that. He’s a big, strong dog, but I can manage it with the gentle leader on. So good to see how exasperating the pulling can be, I do that, walking and correcting and going geez……now I know, don’t give up, instead of thinking I’m doing it wrong.
right there with you!
same to me!
My labradoodle doesn’t the “freak out” too on gentle leader, but at least I can control her without her knocking me down. Progress, not perfection. It works.
Having confidence in your method is a big part of the battle in my experience. If you feel like you know what you are doing and trust the process, I have learned that is huge for me. Anything hesitant in dog training is likely not to work.
This is just what I needed...... Amazing information...the verbal and demonstrative cuing ...real life!! I did my best to do the techniques with my dog today and plan to watch/rewatch the video . Thank you!!!!
These videos are INVALUABLE. This has saved me and my dog on walks, his pulling is 99% fixed because of these very simple yet VERY EFFECTIVE fundamentals. Love it.
How can this be a boring video! Much appreciated your filming uncut realtime video training with all super useful narratives. I tried this on the street and don’t care other people watching thinking like I was abusing my dog. Those every 10-step treat days are over!
Thank you so much for this video - I miss her so much already and didn't expect to see her so soon
She's beautiful. Thank you for rescuing her AND taking her to Beckman's. You are so lucky you are close enough to do that!!
@@asp1213 I am just lucky he was able to get her in!
It was a long, desolate, 7-hour drive from Phoenix. Fortunately my sister was able to make the trip with me.
We got some good family time & she was able to console me on the drive home. I definitely KNOW this will be good for her, but it was hard to leave her so far from home.
@@voxaz7284 I totally get the separation anxiety you are experiencing for sure! I also totally get driving so far to get her there. If he were anywhere on the East Coast, I'd have my dogs there for sure 😀 looking forward to seeing her progress!
We also have an ex street dog, ours is from Cyprus. He was so human avoidant that no one wanted to adopt him so he had been in kennels for 3 years. He was pretty traumatised. So we had him flown home to the UK to see if we could help him. We've had him a year and his fear of people is slowly improving as we build trust. So now the hard work begins! He displays a lot of the same body language as Ava. Super independent, flighty. Thank you for rescuing your gorgeous girl and I'm very grateful I can now learn from her too. She's helping other dogs by being a UA-cam star so thank you for taking her to the Beckmans ❤
Good for you for doing what needs to be done to help her even when it’s not easy.
Not a boring video. This a good video. I've learnt a lot from this.
Too me so long to find this helpful video
She is a beast! This video is so important to teach all of us about really bad leash reactivity. More please!
This video is game changing. Thank you for starting from scratch with a real problem dog. I'm sick of videos where there was obviously tons of offscreen prep work that we didn't get to see.
Very, very, interesting! I had the best walk in 4 years yesterday with my rescue. What a joy.
My dog is about equal to the dog in this video. After an hour walk he is already a different dog. Amazing! You saved me a lot of money! I love that you didnt need treats, and the process is so simple to emulate. Liked and subbed!
I don't even own a dog and this training is the best I have ever seen. No fluff, no hype. Just tells it like it is. Awesome video.
I love it please rescue dogs, everyone! My rescue needs so much work but she is so grateful and amazing
Just started following you and have to say I like your techniques. What I particularly like is how you reenforce the need for patience. It takes as long as it takes etc…
The amount of knowledge you've imparted through this video is invaluable, especially the bits regarding owners not doing the process, which you've laid out to be quite black and white. I.e: dog leaves, dog gets a correction. AFAIK there's no other free materials out there that demonstrates the use of gentle leader as well as this has. Thank you, Mr. Beckman!
At last a real world scenario that I think most folk can relate to with dogs that are like this and that's why they are here watching this video. Many thanks you are a great inspiration.
This video gave me new hope with my teenage rescue dog. It takes training, patience, love and a lot of work. Thanks for the realistic video!👏👏
There was nothing boring about this video. This was EXACTLY the type of training video for dogs with leash reacitivity that I've been scouring UA-cam to find. Thank you so much for making and sharing it unedited in full so that we can see the whole process!
I got a gentle leader for my dog. He is very bad at pulling, made my hand bleed once from him tugging so hard. Once I watched this video, and a few other videos of yours, (with the help of the lead as well) he was doing so amazingly. Stopping with me almost every time, and sometimes sitting when we stop too. Amazing videos, thank you very much.
I actually felt you much softer on this video, don’t let this over sensible people get to you!! Your methods work and you are not causing any trauma nor harm on any of these dogs, as always thank you for the work, real life demonstrations and patience
Wow! I can't believe how helpful this was. We recently got a rescue with significant reactivity. I watched a number of other reactivity videos, and although they helped a bit, I knew I missing something. What you do better than all the other videos out there on this topic is this: 1. The necessity of starting the process before you even go out the door. I was waiting until I was outside, and I see now how that was too late. 2. The frequency of the stop and correct. Many times per minute. I was waiting far too long, and I realize now how I was quickly losing the dog because I let his mind wander too long. 3. The timing of the pop. "When the dog is no longer with you" was a revelation about the timing for me. It seems obvious now, but other trainers were making the correction without explaining what exactly it was that was their cue it was time for a correction. I can't believe how quickly the dog responded to this training. He understood very quickly what I was asking of him, and this technique set him up for multiple successes per minute. About 15 min into our first session using this, wouldn't you know it, a deer jumps out in front of us. The dog reacted , but with an intensity that was a fraction of what would have happened the day before. He's still got a ways to go, but this video provided me with the tools I needed to make a significant leap forward in working with him on this issue.
So happy it helped
@@BDTraining At what age do you recommend using the gentle leader AND/OR expecting real results? Have a 4MO English Springer that doesn’t seem to acknowledge the normal leash tug! Have a gentle leader but haven’t introduced it yet.
@@caseysmith8090 he has a video that explains exactly what you should expect from a dog at every stage/age of development. 4 months you should be focusing on other things. Your dog is too young for this yet.
This guy is not a dog whisperer... He is a dog listener in his own very direct way. Invaluable advice for ANY dog owner. I love the way you let the dog be free as long as the leash is loose.
This WAS my dog about six months ago until I found your videos. Ava is in good hands. She’ll be loose leash walking like a champ in no time.🐕❤️
idk when you said.. "now, that's a real ending.." teared me up... the dog needed those correction much more than she knows... for her safety and well being...
This is fantastic, consistently showing them who's boss and keeping them in line. That dog learnt a lot in a short period of time.
Oh wow. This dog could be the twin of my dog, who was dumped in my yard a month ago. He is a sweetheart- until we go a’walkin’. This video is SO helpful. N
🚩 Joel, I think it's sufficient to keep filming in 1080p rather than 4k because youtube will always throttle the footage and downgrade it due to bandwidth. As the viewer, we won't see the difference. You will just end up using more memory on your computer by filming in 4k and stopping more often due to camera overheating.
I don't know if you ever considered it but have you thought of getting a 3 axis gimbal for the camera? It basically keeps the camera level so the footage is smooth when you're moving. Your channel has lots of moving footage cause obviously it's of moving dogs. It would make it clearer for the viewer and is better than digitally reducing the motion. Digitally doing it will lower quality.
I feel adding a gimbal for smoother footage would be better value for your channel than the 4k. Just my opinion since you asked. Thanks as always for the great content. I hope you see the comment cause I know you get a ton.
But you can upload and watch in 4k, how does that throttle down the quality when the option is there (when it's uplaoded)?
p
4K24P isn't really any better than 1080 60P, especially with faster movements in videos with animals.
@@RayleighCriterion That's an unfair comparison. A fair comparison would be 4k at 60 FPS vs. 1080p at 60 FPS, and there is a noticeable difference between those two resolutions depending on the viewer's display size.
Worth every minute of viewing. Working with a 5 year rescue who was picked up stray. The 4K is super sharp and kudos to your camera person.
Would love to see an update on this dog. She’s definitely more challenging with the leaving you than others.
Yes. It would be particularly good to see how she walks with her owner.
Yes love to see an update
Even watching it makes one tired. So much work put into this dog already in this video. Great content.
this dude. this is what everyone needs help with. not the perfect scenario where the dog already has a good obedience base. most people/families just want a dog that is manageable and friendly. keep at it dude.
Thank you for showing all of this and how for some dogs it is infinite repetitions and patience until it finally works!
Watching your work with a challenging dog is EVERYTHING!
Please don't ever feel like your video is boring. It's amazing progress, and yes - it takes time. Just like you say when it comes to training "I can do this all day", we can watch all day to make sure we are getting all of the information in and see that it isn't just immediate progress. Great job, great video - thank you so much for your patience
This video was my favorite!! My dog behaves EXACTLY like this. He's about a third of the size but so strong & stubborn. I appreciated seeing the struggles & then the improvement at the end was GOLD..thank you Joel🙏 It gives me hope that I can one day enjoy my walks with my boy♥️ Your teachings are priceless💯
Thanks for these posts Beckman. Just got a 6 month old shepherd/husky cross as a companion for our 13 year old mix who has survived many other dogs. Turns out the puppy is a lot more dog reactive than the previous owner led me to believe. Had a plan to try to train but tweaked it after watching your videos and it is working. The Halti collar makes all the difference in changing the problems dog's focus.
just found you today. i've got a 6 month old aussie and am going to utilize your videos. i think you're using the right mix of positive and corrective reinforcement. i'm glad you're here!
This video helped me a lot. My dog now comes back to me when he starts to get ahead of me. It took a lot of persistence from me but I trusted your word. I liked that you kept the video going while still correcting her. Takes time and seeing you take the time helped me to commit to the time too. Appreciate the video! 👌🏽😃
Honestly your videos motivate me to work with my dog, thank you for putting these type of videos out there 🥰 I have a jerky mutt who likes to be mean towards other males, he is a handful and your videos give me hope that I can change his behavior and strength to continue and not give up!
I struggle with anxiety so working with him is harder than it needs to be for me but at the same time I work on him, with him and on myself. Thank you for being "raw" and honest in your videos, actually showing real life stuff and helping dogs and dog owners across the world! ❤
Your videos have changed my life and my dogs for the better. I didn’t want to use a choke collar, and your methods of using the dogs weight as it meets the end of the leash have worked incredibly well for me. I work at a big pet store and I advocate for the gentle leaders as often as I can, and recommend your channel.
Helps me feel good about the small progress I am making with my street rescue. She acted exactly like this dog and believe me…. It takes a lot of time and patience! Great video.
Best video for leash reactivity! I'm following every step with my 2 extremely reactive chihuahuas! And I'm happy to report that it's working. Thank you.
A master class from the Master! Love your tutorials.
I've seen many you tube video's from different dog trainers. But you have the most clear explanation. Greetings from the Netherlands.
And for so many dogs it’s a foreign world to be w/a person, not be in no person’s world w/just dogs & learn to trust ppl in lots of ways. It’s awesome to see Joel gently teach this dog. Great to see her again in 6-12mos w/more work! Thank you!!!!!
Thank you, thank you, thank you. Taking over a rescued 4yr Husky mix. The corrections are killing my shoulder. Getting the Gentle Leader! Genius!
I had a 105 lb Rhodesian boxer he would tear up his nose trying to get out of the gentle leader
Nice example of a dog that didn’t get properly shaped to the leash when it was younger. My rescue Cattle Dog acted a lot like that on walks when I first got it. Lots of work to fix it when they’re older.
I could watch this ALL DAY!!! 💯😊
Letting her sniff at 18:25 was awesome. She might having been trying to actively avoid the other dog by sniffing and she deserves to be rewarded for choosing that over barking and lunging
This is a good one I needed.
One of my dogs is always nervous and scared, especially when she’s being corrected or told what to do. She automatically assumes she needs to be super shameful. So it was good to see how to balance correcting with helping the dog feel loved and comfortable.
Great video! This is what dog owners need. We need to see that the training requires the repetition, the stopping, the correcting, and try again - over and over. The impression so many of the other trainers give, is that problems are supposed to be resolved in a half hour. That just isn’t real life. So thankful that your videos are created to meet the reality where it is.
Such a difference in a matter of minutes!!! Wow - I am subscribing!
What a great video! Thanks showing us the raw progress.
I really like that you show the whole process. I usually see...Dog not behaving, a little bit of working with the dog, and them BOOM....amazing dog! That's not real life! Thank you for showing us the "real life" version. It's incredibly helpful! Great videos and great work!!! Thank you!!!
Seriously, I've never seen you work so hard, but it was really helpful. Love to see her progress over the next weeks.Real world stuff.
I like your tough love with us owners 🙌
Oh my word, this dog acts exactly like my 4 1/2 yr old female Bull Terrier. She drags me all over. I’ve been thru breast cancer treatments & surgery, so she’s been able to take advantage of my lack of strength. I’m definitely going to try your method !!!!
Wonderful to adopt a street or rescue dog. This beautiful dog now has a chance of a happy life in front of her.
This is the best video yet for us - two dogs one a 3 year old rescue with leash reactivity - your video’s are a god send for us thanks 🙏
Very good, this gives me hope with my German Shepard! Thank you.
thanks for doing a video with a “real dog” in terms of pulling and freaking out at other dogs. Those of us who adopt rescued dogs, particularly dogs who were neglected or abused, I think we need the reminder that our dogs need structure, consistency, clear instructions, and calm leadership. Love and treats and affection cannot heal, on their own.
Joel's sensitivity and intuition are exceptional. Outstanding video . I can't imagine giving this a "thumbs down" ... this was miraculous. I'd like to see anyone make this kind of progress, this fast with ANY other method (except constant liverwurst delivery). This is hard work, physically. My only problem with myself is that neurological damage and weakness makes it difficult.
My dog is a year and a half old and used to be a big puller . I used your loose leash walking method and noticed improvements. But whenever we see another dog he wants to get to them. He is not aggressive. He just wants to meet the other dog. But its funny cause at the dog park he is such a scaredy cat. Anyway im over him freaking out on walks because I’m small and he’s 80 lbs and he has pulled me to the ground twice. It’s embarrassing. And frustrating. So Immediately after this video i went and bought a gentle leader and OMG! What a difference. He was heeling perfectly. We also saw a dog on our walk and he freaked out a bit but i was able to manage him. We passed the other dog just fine. I was so proud of my dog and myself. Best $20 I’ve spent.
Thank you. Most of this is old hat for me, but it really helps to see a"trainer" struggle to get the point across, with a fix that isn't instant. Thank you for emphasizing improvement instead of perfection.
This is the best leash reactive video to date. The process is the process and day one is never easy. Thank you 😊
Been working with my 5 month old Aussie. Raised for 4 months with 4 adult dogs and very little human contact. Watched you 3 video’s with the 3 year old Aussie and “Prince”. All very informative. Implementing one point in particular: “Loose leash”. Great principle and has changed my dog in just 2 sessions. Thank you!
Excellent video, all the way through! We recently adopted a rescue pup. He’s great… but as you say, a beast! Nearly 60 pounds of pittie, So Much Energy!!!
The gentle leader just looks so lightweight. I appreciated the part where she flipped complexly out and the leader didn’t fail. Thank you!
I needed this. I have a nervous rescue dog. Thank you.
Wow! Those piercing eyes are incredible. What a beautiful dog.
This video was really important for me to see. Wow. I thought it was just me being ineffective w my corrections cause I’ve been working on reactivity w my dog for a little bit now. He’s gotten so much better than before we started (we can actually make it through a whole walk on a loose leash now) but he still leaves me way too often when there’s distractions esp if there’s a barking dog. So it’s nice to know see how long & how many corrections it can take even professional trainers to correct certain behaviors that have been reinforced throughout the years. Thank you for showing us this!
Thank you so much for using real dogs in real situations.
I have watched a lot of dog training videos, and l used your call technique this morning on our walk down to the creek to feed the wild ducks.
I practiced the call method all the way down the drive. When we got to the creek a Hawk flew out.
Unfortunately the Hawk had killed one of the ducks.
My Catahoula puppy got very excited and went to chase after the Hawk.
I used the call technique and he was a good boy and came back.
To have successfully used the technique in a simulation overload situation has been very encouraging.
I often go to our local settlement and hang out at the cafe. The village dogs walk freely around, so Brin gets a lot of socialisation. He is only allowed to interact with the other dogs when l permit it. Otherwise he has to sit at my feet and chill while l drink my coffee and talk with the locals.
My next challenge is teaching my pup to walk nicely on the leach. Thank you again
What a fantastic dog trainer he is what a big improvement in the dog at the end of this video well done ✅ if i had a problem with my dog i who'd call the Beckman's dog training center just love this trainer ...
You are a great dog trainer! Love your videos.
I have watched a ton of Joel's videos, but I think his method for going out the door is the thing that helped us all around the most.
This was so helpful! I saw my dog in this video the entire time and will implement these techniques with her. She is a smart, clever girl. When the standard is raised she adjusts. I have faith this will help our walking relationship. Thanks a bunch, Beckman.
