PATREON.COM/ANDYKRUEGER for the REAL stuff.
What's up everyone! In this video I take my 1.5 year old Belgian Malinois to a public park and use ZERO OBEDIENCE TRAINING!
Let me know what you think in the comments! WATCH UNTIL THE END!!
65 comments so far, and only 3 or 4 negatives that apparently didn’t understand the purpose of the video: that a highly trained dog is still first and foremost a dog, and is entitled to run and sniff around in a new environment with his master (while respecting leash laws and other owners). Excellent video, needed to be said. Thank you!
Yes! Thanks so much 🙏🏼
No shit sherlock, but there are other opinions on this theme
Camera man is PRO, man is running and still catching up W camera man
Beginner dog trainer over here had it totally wrong!! I thought that “understanding leash pressure” meant that this sort of walk would be poorly considered! So fun to watch you get yanked around a bit-all in good fun!! Huge relief to know we can totally relax like this!! THANK YOU for posting this one-and thank you for always being real🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
💪🏼💪🏼
I agree! New trainer here too. This video helped me get more comfortable with having unfocused play time.
Great example of allowing the dog some freedom and the chance to smell and run! And, yes - always keep aware of your surroundings so you are not caught off guard. Great video! Dogs need to relax sometimes and I totally agree. Then when you work, the dog knows that it is time to work. As the owner/handler, the dog is better balanced with a calmness when he can relax sometimes. I love it!
It was a fun and insightful video on letting a dog just be a dog, lots of new mentally stimulating scents, sounds, grass and clover to roll in. Thank you once again!
🙏🏼🙏🏼
@@AndyKrueger amazing to watch. All we see is dog trainers training focused obedience, BUT this Part is as important too. Seeing a dog being a dog. I oftentimes don't know how much I should let my dogs be dogs in unknown areas
@@sophia-mariapavelka3534 It all depends! As long as your training is bulletproof you can do this all the time 👍🏻
@@AndyKrueger Sure! The one thing I always expect of my dog is to react to his name and engage with me when I give the start command for training.
I always forget this part of having a dog. I spend so much time giving her work, that I forget to just let her do dog things 🙌 Thanks for the reminder!
👍🏻👍🏻
Glad you brought up letting them have “free time” and it affecting training after. I have been worried letting the dog pull specifically on a hike would result in a decline in heal. 👍🏻
As long as your training is GOOD this will not affect Heeling at all 👍🏻
So refreshing to see a dog just being a dog. He was smiling the whole time. Great vid. Keep up the great work, I’m learning and trying to apply some of the knowledge you are passing along. I can honestly say that I can see results with my 18 mnrh old and 4 mnth old dogs.
Awesome! 🙏🏼
“I’m gonna get roasted in the comments for how he’s walking” 😂 😂 😂 😂 Thanks for the fun video and showing another way of training/enjoying your dog
🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Great video. Looking forward to the follow up video where you combine obedience and park freedom with your dog. Seems like that would be what most dog owners who live in the city would be aiming to accomplish.
Thank you 🙏🏼 That is coming soon! 🙌🏻
Wow I absolutely loved this! I think most people are like me and love seeing him pull you all over the place and wrap the leash around trees and things! It reminds us that dogs are dogs and its ok to sometimes let him be one! Plus we see you have so much control over him all the time that I think we forget that hes just a dog, and even a well trained dog like him will still pull you all over the place if you let him! It was fun to just see you casually out with him like this, in a non-training and non-working setting! Thank you for making me and my dogs feel normal! Btw I find myself doing the "behind the back" thing multiple times and have had to get really good at it, esp walking more than one dog at a time they get all twisted up if I dont stay on top of things!
Thank you! 🙏🏼
Great episode Andy. I have a 12 month old Mal and we live on a farm but take trips regularly for socialisation and recreational walks. Ours has fear reactivity to other dogs so we avoid dog parks and dog beaches. Was really good to see you take a trip and let Fred be a puppy in the park.
You are WONDERFUL! My GSD has had 3 offleash do encounters in my neighborhood! My GSD is dog reactive and every time I make progress, another off leash dog sets us back. (Just started with a trainer in my area.) In this video you gave me another way I can handle my dog in that situation - using the slip lead. I didn't think of that. THANK YOU!
Like your way. Pro tip!
Great video, thanks. Great to see its not always about training and stricked structure days with our dogs. Gotta love just being sometimes. Thanks again
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
"Scroooolling" 😁 "that's what I'm talking about"16.09 Finally, you put back your INTRO signature clip! Cheers from Brooklyn, NY!!!
Cheers! 🍻
That patreon ad at the end got everybody ready to subscribe!! 👀
Except you 😝
Andy wow, you’re the legend. Definitely free range approach among dog trainers. I love it. It’s so simple and natural to give your dogs what they need and at the same time stay in the position of “the leader”people got used to see you. To everyone against this methods of giving a break and some freedom/rather fun time to your loved ones ( as in my opinion the same rule applies to your kiddos :) ) it only helps to build trust and strong connection between you and your dog. Thumbs up for being honest and brave to share your love and understanding of other creature. Cheers
🙏🏼🙏🏼
Man I'd need to buy a van to be able to comfortably crate my Cane Corso in a car (needs a xl crate) 😂. Fun video
Brilliant video! And yes, I could watch an hour of this.
Dog day afternoon. Good environment socializations.
👍🏻
I love this video Andy!! So great to see what it's like to be out in public and letting a dog be a dog. Always love to watch your videos to pep up my day and find new things to do with my dog!
💪🏼💪🏼
By far the best “Pro Tip” Ever!! 😂
Thanks!
It was great. Thank you for sharing, I needed to see that off time. 🙂
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
This was nice and inspirational. Brief and dynamic, just like I used to do ( after a heart attack a little less dynamic these days 😆)
Haha 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
This video made me smile after a horrible day. Thx
Andy Krueger: K-9 mind. ‘preciate ya.
Good stuff to watch. Love it!
Love free running - walking with the dogs, They get to sniff what they want pee and poop where they want. It's a different mental stimulation I do 1 hour free walking with my dog daily. Nice to see you let your dog be a dog and training is a second to their needs to be a dog. Freddy looked like he had so much fun.
Nice! Thank you!
Great video....Andy and Fred at the park ...with a He Bites tee! Don't mess with the best!!
HE BITES!! 💪🏼⚔️💪🏼
Fun video! I taught my Newfoundland "other way" when he wrapped the leash around a tree to unwind himself.
Cool!
Love seeing a working dog get to be a dog!! We encounter a lot of offleash dogs where we like to walk and it drives me bonkers. My dog is old and neutral to other dogs and gets very tense if they approach him. I've started being very proactive in defending him. Last week I had to kick a small dog TWICE that charged us and the owner said "sorry he's normally nice!". Great but do you like it when random strangers rush up and try to buck up on you??? It's not nice!! I tear them up for not having a leash!
You should tear them a new one! So obnoxious! I never advocate letting a dog off leash in public for this reason! Trained or not! Invades other people’s space. No one cares if they’re friendly, leave us alone!! 😆🙏🏼🙌🏻
Sweet segment! Love it.
Thanks!
PRO TIP: perform a poop-bag-check BEFORE heading out on your walk. Have at least three bags on you, just in case.
Haha! Agreed!!
Nice video. Thanks for mixing it up a bit. Will do that with our Aussie to break up training.
Nice!
@@AndyKrueger thanks. I know how much time recording and editing it takes to do KZhead’s. Look forward to your next. Here is my go at a new puppy training video. Three key things to start when getting a puppy. Enjoy. kzhead.info/sun/dNqDY5WmaqZ-g40/bejne.html
Loved you were in Cincinnati. I am currently in Northern Kentucky. I grew up in Cincinnati. My family lives there. I have an Anatolian Shepard, but I loved this video. I do have the extended lead.
Nothing wrong with this outing. You got a good work out . Lol. And so did Freddie . Can t ever go wrong taking your dog out to a no training scenic park. Me, I’d be pooped out. Omg. I typed pooped just as he pooped. Lol. Perfect timing. 😊
Thanks for keeping it real.
👊🏼
I love it. Keep doin you Andy.
Thank you 🙏🏼
Ok, I see. There are not only hyperactive working line dogs, there are also hyperactive working line handlers 😁
Hahaha! 🙏🏼
Such a brilliant video! Thanks Andy! Now what happens if another dog was off leash and came running towards your dog?
I’d slap the owner 😂😂
Fun video! Context is important, and well trained dogs get context. His Au pied will still be precise, no doubt.
🙏🏼
Loved it!
Roast time!! Kidding 😂! This was certainly unexpected but loved to see some Freddy time. Couple questions, how often do you do this? And what did you think when you saw that cyclist coming?? Patreon crew let's gooooo!
LET’S GOOO!! This is the second time I’ve ever done this! 😂 So almost never! Haha
Lol he totally goes for a walk like a sled dog. Head on a swivel! I need one of those shirts! For when I go to town too. ;)
I noticed you looking around like you were paranoid during the first part of the walk. I get it! I used to take the sled team into town for distraction training. Try holding back 6 Sibes cause brave Fifi thought she would try standing in front of the team saying far enough folks. All the while 220lbs is standing on full brake being dragged closer and closer to fifi with me screaming at the lady to gab her dog before it becomes lunch. She did, thankfully. That would of been messy right near the public school. Great chapter but glad all 15 years of it are over.
We have a lot of rescue dogs since we been saving dogs for over 26 yrs plus our own dogs. recently got me a Malinois after 4 of our long time self owned dogs died from cancer within 2 years time .
Freddy looked great , and sure had fun!! ..cant believe how few people with dogs are in this big beautiful park tho... Was it super early in the morning??
Probably around noon
Awesome content! I want a shirt that says "he bites and I bite too!" 😂
Hey Andy, looks fun! if there were no dog leash laws in a public place as here in the uk, would you still recommend a flexi?
Yes! I never promote/ support dogs being off leash in public. No matter their training or sociability. It is not a dog park. Just my opinion 🙏🏼
I plan on getting a Belgian Malinois in a couple of months. Do you have a playlist on how to properly train them?
Great video! How often would you say you do this?
This is honestly the first time I’ve ever done it! 😆 But if I didn’t have a property I’d do this almost daily 🙏🏼
I wouldn't roast you Andy! You the man!
Haha 🙌🏻
Grear Video.
Eden park is great. Hope I run into you in Cincy sometime.
Agreed! 🙏🏼
Which retractable leash is this? I am looking for a good one ☝️
Hey! I love your videos they are so helpful and informative. Keep up the amazing work! Do you recommend male or female Mals?
Thanks! I like both 🙏🏼
I don’t use retractable anymore since I had one break on me I use a martingale collar with strong as leash.
But my mastiff I had was 175lbs and would break any weak leash. When I first got him he literally dragged me into our huge pond we have.
Líbí se mi to.Super. Máte moc hezké triko. Andrea. Olomouc Česká republika.
Maybe a stupid question but where did you get that slip collar from? I loved watching Freddy have good time.
Freddy, Freddy Krueger... I get it now.
Oh yeah ⚔️
Just here to roast ya man.. your dog is pulling the leash so obnoxiously 😂😂
Haha! I know I wish I knew how to train 🙃
Belgian Malinios are like velocireptors of dog world
Haha 🙌🏻
When i had an akita everyone put their dogs on a lead and tried to avoid us, now i have a small fluffy dog, everyone just lets their dog run up to him, no respect for his personal space!
Just started watching your videos! Great content. How can I support your chanel other than patreon? I do not do patreon. Hate that I wouldn’t get access to the exclusive content. But patreon has tried to shut up to many people. Love how you just train your dog no drama !
Thank you 🙏🏼 You can Subscribe, watch, Like, Comment! I also have a bunch of shirts available for purchase! 🙌🏻
@@AndyKrueger I have done that on the videos that I have watch so far. Will take me a while to get through them all. Great content, thank u👍
Great vid! I may have missed it.. But how often do you do this with Fred? Thanks in advance!
This is the second time ever! Haha
Field trips are good for everyone’s soul. BTW--join his Patreon account & you will understand his philosophy
BOOM 💥 Thank you 🙏🏼
Couldn’t agree more!!! Best value on the internet. Life changing.
What do you think of having the dog on structured walks with frequent “breaks”? I like to have mine under control until we get to areas where I can let him run around and be a dog.
Love that!
I always take my malinois to park and he is off leash. He has great recall and gets lots of freedom. Very social with other dogs and ignore other people. Is the flexi to show responsible ownership?
Yes. I do not promote or support dogs being off leash at a public park. Training/ social or not. It is not a dog park. Just my opinion 🙏🏼
I wasn’t gonna but since no one is roasting you yet... c’mon Andy, get Fred under control. One squirrel and he’ll be dragging you through the park 🤣
Haha!! I know right! 😆🙌🏻
Great video as always, sometimes you have to just let the dog be a dog!
Exactly! 🙏🏼
I’ve got a Malinois rescue who hates other dogs, can be hard work taking him for walks sometimes 😂
I actually do not believe that dogs ‘hate’. I’d say he could be dog aggressive but is definitely dog reactive. A proofed Heel command would help a lot 🙏🏼
@@AndyKrueger I know, your right he doesn’t hate them. Ok thanks, do you have a video on that?
What if someone approaches wanting to pet ?
cool i will do this too in the big park and let my dog be like this so happy no training today this is really cool love it wit without the other dogs
Thanks!
Wow, never seen a dog trainer who's ok with a retractable leash, ever...but I love how you explained when exactly they can be a good tool. With a retractable, the dog can get a lot more exercise on the same park walk.
Ivan Balabanov uses Flexi leads too !!
Yep, love them. Any ‘trainer’ that doesn’t like them doesn’t understand them.
These leashes are actually really great in IGP and protection sport dog training.
Without being disrespectful although it's great to see you both enjoying yourselves, l can't understand why the dog is pulling you all over the place if he is "highly trained " l Am also a dog trainer and my dogs or dogs I've trained would never pull no matter where we are. Not sure if the Law in that park is leads must be on? Maybe l missed something. I let my dogs off lead as soon as they are ready for it.But l only allow my dogs to move out away from me so far unless l send them out. They won't and don't want to be that far away from me . I don't train my dogs to compete just real world stuff moving in woodland, fields, parks , car parks (lots) but if on lead l train them never to tighten the lead up or pull me no matter where we are or what distraction they encounter while out. I have watched a few of your videos and credit where credit is due very very good from a working competition point of view. But surprised that doesn't extend to the outside world which is what 95% of dog ownership is. All the best!
Sometimes ya gotta leta dog be a dog bro 🤷♂️👍
👍🏻
mine somehow munched a groundhog the other day ( on leash ! ) practically ran into his mouth ... may have been a suicide
Hahaha 😬
Wish you would have talked a little more extensively about the positive and negative reinforcement of "kenneling-up".
Hi. Do you know somebody i can get a pupy malinois???
Sorry I don’t recommend breeders.
My dog loves sniffaris/sniffy walks ❤️ I feel bad making her heel on a short leash everywhere (she's 6 months old), so we try to do it away from home once or twice a week.
Nice! 👍🏻
If he wanted him to slow down and walk slow next to him, he would as he is well looked after and gets lots of training very often indeed. If he didn’t get trained much then it would be an issue but that is not the case here. That’s why he wants him to pull.
🙏🏼🙏🏼
Andy didn’t teach his dog to loose leash walk lol
I'm serious considering a Malinois. I would like to have the dog trained. Looks like very rewarding work. How long does a complete training take? I'm falling for this breed. Badass dogs! Great video 💯
Thanks 🙏🏼 Training is everyday for life. It’s an ongoing process from day one until senior years.
I guess it all depends, regarding the retractable leash. I’m no dog trainer but personally I’m not a fan of retractable leashes. My dog is not allowed to be reeled in and let out like that! My friend had her lab on one of those leashes in an unpopulated area and WHAM, out of nowhere around the corner bush , came a person jogging with her dog on a leash. The other dog started jumping all around she got wound up in the retractable, falling down and breaking her arm and injuring her hip. For the average lay person Id say NO on those leashes. That’s just my personal opinion. I just don’t want my dog to think that’s it’s ok ANY TIME to run around when he’s connected to a leash.If they’re that well trained just let them off the leash! You say “if you do it right.” That’s probably very true but the average person I see out walking their dogs with retractable leashes DONT use them right Just my opinion
What brand food do you use? Looking for a high qualifying food for our Malinois Boxer mix.
I try not to recommend brands because every dog is so different 🙏🏼
As enjoyable as training videos.
🙌🏻
Noooooo, the retractable leash😭😭😂 those give me nightmares😂🤺
Haha!
Do you live in the Cincinnati area. I'm looking to get a belgian malinois with in a year
hello, how does your dog keep concentration on you for so long, make a video how you develop it
Consistency and lots of repetitions
is his real name fred, freddy, or fredrico??
Haha It’s Freddy ! 🙌🏻
Freddy Kreuger!!!
Can the dog play with other dogs?
NOPE!
@@AndyKrueger Do you not allow them to play or do they not get along with other dogs?
@@meleko6390 I do not allow
@@AndyKrueger may i ask for the reason
@@meleko6390 Why would I do that?
She drinks laying down...😜🤣👌
It’s a male
My bad, he.
This is basically what those people who buy a working breed without realising what they're getting into end up with 😁 I agree with you by the way. I have a perfectly well-behaved dog when I WANT her to be. But sometimes I like to let her go be a dog. It's healthy. I use a harness though.
Nice 👌🏼
This is almost like a scene from The Secret Life of Pets. hahaha
Not sure what that is but hope it’s good! 🤞🏼😬
@@AndyKrueger kzhead.info/sun/gLKnkbNsbYGZoGg/bejne.html
A big YES, BUT better use a flat line all the line... because its dangerous with the this slim line 😉
Why is it dangerous? I’ve never had a problem.
What are you even talking about?
@@adamm5054 Some retractable leashes have a flat leash and some have more of a circular thin cord shape.
@@AndyKrueger thank you
His dog is completely out of control. The dog he saw and ran away from was completely under control. Then he says not everyone is a great dog handler. OMG seriously laughed out loud. Is this a parody 🤣?? Beautiful dog.
Click & Bait ✔️
Ok, been wondering about this for hiking because trails are so narrow. His heel is just ok. My trainer said no, not to let him go in front because his heel will get worse. Is this true? We just want to enjoy a hike without always correcting him, can’t be enjoyable for him. But, I also don’t want to mess up what training I have. What do think I should? No hiking until heel is better or hike, have fun and keep working on it?
Hard to say without knowing your and the dogs skills. Generally speaking, this will not ‘mess up’ obedience training as long as it’s solid 👍🏻
My dog and I are at a similar stage. We heal walk on sidewalks around neighborhoods. I have used a slip leash and a buckled flat collar to keep him at my knee for that and I allow sniffing but with moderation. When we beach run it's completely different. He wears a harness and is clipped to my belt with about 8 ft of line. He pulls me, and orbits around me but I call him 'close' if we pass within 40ft of other dogs. We haven't figured out trails runs yet but I'm certain I want him in front of me. Probably belt clipped and on at least 5 ft of leash so I don't run into him if he stops. He knows we're doing different things, and figures it all out (eventually). He's 13 months this week.
@@joefish6546 Nice 👍🏻
When we get to a grassy area, I clip his leash to a different collar and say, Sniff. When it’s time to move on I say, Done. He is getting better at that. It is all a lot to try and figure out sometimes. I am having a hard time figuring out what to do when he all of a sudden dive bombs a scent when we’re walking. He pays no attention to leave it then, very hard to get him off of whatever he smells. Sounds like you and your dog are off to a good start, Joe.
@@karenbates4987 Dog training is very difficult for sure! 🙏🏼
What your doing is great for somebody like yourself who is under 40 but if you're 73 with the infirmaties that accompany age --- I can't keep up.
Anytime my malinois gets caught on something she retracts her steps and gets out it. I’m not saying your dog is not pure breed but I bought mine through a 100 year bloodline and doesn’t have any white on her coat or chest.
👍🏻
Im your first like
Thank you! 👊🏼
