Takes lots of work, and it can be so tedious, but as soon as you start seeing it working, it immediately becomes worth it. We’ve been working with our dog on leash walking, as she had a horrible problem with pulling on leash, but as soon as that started clicking with her, it was very evident, and so exciting. Such a happy moment for all of us to see the progress. She wasn’t an easy 30 minute success like with Sandy, but everything in that video helped so much that after just a few sessions she now just needs the occasional tug to get her to stop up for a second and walk to heel. We have just been using two clicks of the tongue to call her back with the tugs and always get eye contact with it. Such a great thing to see the fruits of your labor
My puppy was from a farm. Came to me scared of cars/traffic. Was very scary, she worked her way outta her collar and ran scared to death. I finally caught her and thought I have to fix this in a safe way. I can't have a fearful dog living in the city. I bought a semi choke collar, so she couldn't get out of it. I did exposure therapy and walked her on a busy road every day for 2 months. Lots of praise and reinforcement. She is now oblivious to cars and focuses on me. So happy we nipped that problem.
had a bit of an epiphany watching this! your comparison between kids and dogs with bribing was spot on and makes so much sense!
I use similar comparisons when helping others with their dogs. It seems to really help.
Positive training is not about "bribery" if you using food as a bribery you're not doing it right......... food is reward and not a bribe. Even if I got the food on me, he doesn't always got to get it... food in positive training is also very quickly fazed out. We can use other than food rewards too, like a praise, game etc...
Finally someone with whom I share the same philosophy: my dog is an angel and I usually use positive reinforcement, but sometimes when he does know what I want and still won't pay attention, I speak loud and firm, sometimes I even clap my hands, and oh boy, how he starts to listen...
@Nalesh Hewavithana Great comments. We seem to have the same philosophy.
Me: calls my dog My dog: looks at me🤓 Also my dog: walking in the opposite direction Me: 😠😡🤬🤬🤬😤🤬😠😡🤬🤬
Me: calls my dog My dog: In a minute, I’m busy
try working on the leash first
@@nalabailey1016 Yeah I would agree. My family has a dog and I trained her to follow me. First we started out with a regular leash for medium size dogs, and with few training days and tricks, she follows me outside with the leash behind her
Atleast your dog looks at you! Haha some acknowledgement. I adopted a 1 year old 2 weeks ago and she has already escaped our backyard a couple times and like to run away. She comes back but she thinks the world is her playground. She had to learn her name as well. It’s definitely not easy trying to train a dog that has lived its life with others and has bad habits.
@Keilianne Garcia we’ve got kennel somewhat down when it’s time for bed 😅 but that’s about it. But yea, have lots to work on...
Using your vids to train my 7 month brown lab “Bono” They are brilliant but as you so rightly say, it takes time and patience. Thank you so much 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏼
Mine is definitely a leadership thing 🤣 I call her to come back and she looks at me then turns back around and continues what she’s doing but she does listen 70% of the time 🤣 I’ve noticed even with basic commands like sit sometimes she just stares at me when I tell her to sit. It’s like she’s never heard the word before 🤦🏻♀️. (We do trick training all the time so she’s 100% confident with the command sit 🤣) I love how you explain the two sides ❤️
Sounds like my little husky. He’s gotten to a point where I know for a fact he’s trying to see what he can get away with
@@nineworthy3337 nah I have the same problem with my pug
Lmaoooo I have the same issue 😂😂😂 she looks at my like she suddenly doesn’t understand English, teenagers eh 😭😭🤣
My 9 week old border collie lab does the exact same thing! It’s very frustrating when you want to show someone his new trick and he just stares at me 🤣🤣🤣
I love watching your videos. I learn so much by just watching how you deal with every dog. I've just rescued my beautiful 5 year old Great Dane so watching you train dogs has helped me already. It's been a long time since I've had to train a dog so I needed a 'refresher'. But what I've learned just by watching is already more than just a refresher - it's a whole new ball game! Thanks Will
Incredibly succinct explanation for an incredibly nuanced subject! I am 2 decades deep in this work and very impressed by your way of laying this out in such a judgement free way.
Your videos on loose leash walking have completely changed my dogs and our relationship. Thank you! Great job!
It's very hard to stay calm and consistent with that monitor alignment 😭😂
fucking amen to that!
Yooooo 😂😂
time and consistency
Looks like you are easily distracted, like me. Do we need some training?
Sit - stay
Will, you are an amazing teacher and instructor. You know your stuff and you’re able to articulate your informative message with clarity and confidence. I applaud your use of the English language. Well done sir.
amazing how this guy can talk like a water flood for 11 minutes without interruption or breathing and still give valuable information and does not fall in repetition too much. thumbs up!
I agree, but I find it a tad overwhelming trying to absorb everything he is saying even when I slow the playback down! So much so fast!
@@misst7446 do you need a short video visually explaining everything
@@CheekyTop1 what the heck?
@@misst7446 well do you?
Just found this channel in my recommended. Absolutely love the content! I’ve been binge watching these absolutely fenomal explanations and love the way you’re teaching. Thank you!!
Phenomenal
I have watched a lot of your videos. but this one really hit home and encapsulated how to train a dog. Thankyou, brilliant!
I have been using the techniques that this great channel recommends abs I am not disappointed. Great advice and great channel for any dog owner new or older dog 👍🏻
I think my dogs look at me as a treat dispenser and belly rub machine
Thanks, the first few minutes made me so proud of myself 😂😂 I’ll be picking up my pup in a few days! my prior doggo was very well trained she passed may 2019 and was 11 I don’t even remember how I trained her I needed a refresher! I’m finally ready to open my home to more fur babies ♥️
How's your doggie?
Always remember anything you train takes tons and tons of repetition. It has been estimated to be 600-1000 reps for a dog to be rock solid in a behavior. And Rock solid means the dog is accurate around 98% of the time. They are after all dogs, not robots. And every dog learns at a different pace. So don’t get frustrated when your new puppy seems to be taking longer than your last dog. And those repetitions need to start in very simple terms (dog close by on a lead) increasing to long line. Then go from your house to your back yard on a long line to a larger area. Then increasing the distractions. I was taught something called distance-duration-distraction. Every time you change one of those items, the other two must be the same or easier. So if you are teaching recall in the back yard 20 foot long line no distraction and you go to the park (more distraction) you need to shorten the lead (say to 10 ft) and work up slowly from there. If you are teaching down with you 10 ft away for 5 min in the kitchen, and now move to 15 feet, then your time should go down to around 2-3 minutes. Gradually work back up to 5 min. To train a dog It takes time. Repetitions. Rewards. Corrections. Consistent communication from you to the dog. But the feeling of walking your well mannered best buddy down the street and having everyone comment “how did you teach him to walk so nicely?” is really, really cool.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
If your dog is stupid, yes
Brilliant reply.
Cool story. Make a video then keyboard warrior
600-1,000 reps, really? That doesn't sound right...
For anyone reading this: I know that dog training can be difficult sometimes, but you're doing great. Keep up the good work, and your dog (and your own sanity) will thank you for it! ❤️💕
Man, I needed to read that today. Struggling with muscular dystrophy and trying to train a Belgian malinois. I’ve been pretty hard on myself lately😊
@@valknudtfarms4048 I'm sorry you've been struggling with that. I have a family member with MD, so I can appreciate how challenging it can be. But you're out there working with the dog, despite that, and that makes me so proud to hear. Your dog found himself a good home and a great owner. Keep up the great work. One thing you might consider is using a 25 foot leash and tying it to something outside. Then let the dog sniff around, and call him back. That way, if he doesn't respond, you can grab the leash and give it a small tug, just to remind him that you're there, and then treat him. Also, try slowly walking backward when you call him.
I am so excited to begin training our 10 month old Doberman. Thanks for your confidence! Florida🌴
Recall training is so, so worth it. We slacked off on training for our current dog. The pup we had before him, we did everything. He was also such a breeze to train. The new guy is stubborn af. Adorable, but stubborn. So it's been more of a challenge and we may have gotten a new dog a bit too soon. Looking back, now I can see we were still grieving the sudden loss of our first boi (who would have just turned 10 last month) in 2019. He was fine on a Monday, acting funny Wednesday afternoon, stopped eating Friday night, and gone by Saturday afternoon. Anyway, it really is so, so nice to have a dog you can let off leash and rely on to still listen. Our other dog is a good listener. A little neurotic but listens when it counts. So on the rare occasion that the gate to the backyard has been left open by accident, we have one dog we panic about and another we just holler for and her head pops up around a corner right away. Lol! Though I will say, the stubborn lil turd dog is too oblivious most of the time to notice the gate is open. Both times, he's just been off in his own little world in the backyard.
First off thanks for all of the hard work you put in to make these videos to help all of us knuckleheads out here !! I just recently went from fostering to adopting a rescue that is SEVERELY terrified of EVERYTHING ! While I have some skills with a dog like this, my last dog had similar issues, I know when things fail it is mostly, well all, my fault. 🤦♀️ Tipper is very attentive on lead, will stop, turn, & heel pretty well so far. We are just beginning to work on sit. I watched your video on going through doorways and have incorporated that into our normal program as well. I wish I we could have more fun in the house but he is so afraid of things...... I guess just being patient will be the key. Thanks again for your hard work !
Well explained easy to follow advice..excellent brother..I have a 12 week old bully..so im back in training mode your advice is a great refresher..thank u..please keep up the good work..your changing peoples and dogs lives for the better.u understand as I see u been through some heartbreaking adversities with your pups..I lost one about a year ago so I feel your pain..but thanks for not losing faith and keep the dog videos coming 👍
Thank you for your ACTUAL helpful information!! So many dog training video don’t give enough structure and information. We will be using this info for sure!
Watching in preparation and anticipation of receiving our new puppy, fantastic content so far, subscribed.
Excellent advice as always. Thank you for helping me train my Shepherd. I have learned so much!
love the way you explained this dude, im having a few issues with a few things you mentioned in this vid, great explanation
This video is amazing. Is the best video I've ever seen about recall and it's exactly what I explain as a dog trainer. Leadership is needed for a good training. It's not about throwing treats at the dog's face, it's about marking a leadership.
Thanks so much Misha, it's great to hear you agree and find our video helpful!
Me: Minding my own business trying to learn how to teach your dog the recall command. Trainer that looks like a viking: You lack leadership. Me: ok T_T
Thanks for your help. Love your approach. My five month GSD recalls with people but not with dogs.
Same but mines 17 month
Mines 7 months and KNOWS to walk nicely on lead but persists to pull and recall is just a problem, it’s rare she’ll come back I was walking with a friend who has dogs so mine just followed them and I took the risk to let her off and she ran around the whole park and came back after calling her the second time but doesn’t do that in the garden I hope she’ll improve
How is he/she now
@@user-pn4wk6tn9d Thank you for asking. To be honest, we have had to take a few steps back with him. I brought in a former police dog handler to work with me one on one to work on his aggression (fear induced) etc and setting his boundaries and also reassess my control and calmness. What dog do you have?
@@neothegsd7292 oh I just got a Golden retriver 14 weeks I thought him to sit lay down paw his name I am planning to teach him to stay this week and then I will be teaching recall for a while have you got any tips since you have already gone through this
You can just tell this guy loves dogs. Good stuff
So glad I’ve found you! Balanced approach is what I need.
Hands down the best video I’ve watched that explains how things should be done. The recommended of changing the command from “come” to something else because they don’t take “come” seriously is a game changer. I never thought of that, so thank you!
I’m reluctant to change my recall word, as “come”works 100% of the time when he’s on a long lead, and 95% we are alone with few distractions. When there are distractions and distance is where I’m having a lot of problems. My 7 month old puppy whom I’ve had for two months loves strangers and other dogs so much it’s nearly impossible to get recall in those situations. What should I do?
@@adamsalazar8214 Change the command as suggested for 100 per cent. Why be happy with less?? Identify ALL the elements he proposes including practising at home in a hallway. Set up practice situations using friends in a safe environment before exposure to overwhelming stimuli perhaps. Maybe write out Wills instructions to ensure all elements are being appled perhaps? Hope these thoughts might help??
Thank you thank you. An incredible discussion on recall. So many dogs end up in sheltets for that very reason. As humans we want to blame the broken dog when we are to blame. Once again super explanation on recall training and how to understand positive verses balanced training. Rock on😁😊
Everybody was talking to me about Ceasar Milan. That just didn't work for my Django and myself. This does.., thank you man. Much appreciated. Stay healthy, stay safe. You're work is amazing.
Wow what an explanation ! Very clear. You communicate better than most. Had to subscribe and I haven't even seen another video yet
All these videos are so informative. I'm waiting for the sun to come up so I can go try these techniques out Thank you very much Will 🐕 😊
Great explanation and insight into dog’s behavior/ mindset. Thanks.
Really glad to have found your channel, given me so much to work with 👍🏻
New rescue dog today. Thank you for the great information. I’ve got lots of bonding to do. Then lots of training. I’ve got time and will make it happen. Have a wonderful day..!!
Brilliantly clear Will - thank you.
By far the best explanation to the problem. Thank you!
Thanks very much 👌🏾I have been looking for help training my dogs. Getting confused with all the information out there, you explained very will and simple.
Great video. Every dog is different also. I always do positive reenforcement but I have a pit heeler mix so she can be stubborn and sometimes I have to be firm with her. She respects it
Love your explanations , you’ve made my problem crystal clear . I need to build on my dogs respect for me . The treats are not working anymore and now I know why . I was going to use a higher value treat but I have realised that I have to create a stronger bond and more respect . He’s great most of the time but he does bug dogs that are on lead and I know that’s not on .
My dog was very shy and anxious in new environments. After much training, classes and research, I've realized my dog didn't see me as a trustworthy leader and so whenever we're out in new environments, he didn't know how to act and didn't look towards me for guidance on how to act. After reinstalling a better leader-relationship, when we take him out and he's in a new place, he looks up at me for direction/guidance. It has really helped his anxiousness and shyness. But clearly we still have a lot more to work on lol
Thanks so much for watching and sharing your experience. It's great to hear how you learnt something new about your dog and were able to change your approach and see it pay off!
So brilliantly explained. Thank you .
Great advice. This channel is really helping me out. Wish my kids were as obedient as my dog.
This is one of my favorite videos of yours.
I've had my best friend Rico, for a month now. Rico is 4yr old Boxer/Dalmation mix bread. He's been with a family that got him rescue from Porto Rico.I am astounded how much of a trusting respecting loving relationship that we have together. He won't leave my side. He runs alone side while I ride. I praise him everything I can while riding.
Thanks for this video. Going to amazon now to get a whistle!! 👌🏾
I agree with you about the leadership role and setting the dog up to succeed
Thanks so much! I got my boy Hunter when I was 7 or 8 so I didn't do any recall training with him now that I'm about to turn 16 I want to be able to take him hiking without a leash on... she's a lab hound mix and has a very strong prey drive he comes to the car perfectly but not to me lol thanks for all the information I'm going to start raining today
Thank you...so helpful..will put it into practice
I'm am getting papers to have my dog papered for emotional support dog. I watched a video of yours how to stop my dog from pulling on a leash. Well I have to tell everyone I am determined to get my dog ready for this life changing experience we are going to have. He has pulled me over before that's how bad it's been so I bought a pinch collar. Let me tell you it worked better than not and I wasn't be pulled off my feet but he would still pull. Okay I went outside with my doc and followed your steps omg it was the best walk ever and it only took about 5 minutes for him to get it. Now I'm not done with this technique but omg!!!!!! Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!. I have to get a whistle but so far he will come but not every time so work to do here to but you came into my life at the perfect time.

Good videos thanks for the knowledge!
Thank you, this is very interesting. Just got a rescue puppy of six months, first time out and letting him off the lead, my husband stood still, I continued to walk with dog still on the lead. After a few moments, I turned, let the lead go and my husband called the dog, got a good result. I’ve just noticed that the dog responds to my whistle, one I use with my fingers (famous for doing that without a dog). So, I’m going to use my whistle in the house and garden as you said, thanks again, fingers crossed it works. P.s. he (the dog) does respond to his name when I call and I’ve managed to get him to sit before a treat, but the whistle in a noisy environment, I believe could be more affective. 😊
thank you so much for this video. it has been a struggle and I've received some backlash from the positive only but this is the first well balanced logical explanation i have found to go by that isn't 100% treats and 'please please come to me'
Glad it was helpful!
I’m so glad you explain this in the video. Ever since I’ve really dived deep into learning about dog training I’ve really struggled with the “positive only VS correcting” issue. I’ve always had the idea that positive-only was the only way training SHOULD be done because it was “humane” but now that I’ve had my husky mix for over a year and he won’t stop going after small wildlife critters 🙄 and he’s terrible about ignoring me when he definitely knows what I want him to do, it became immediately clear that positive-only was NOT going to work with him. It’s really expanded my view to see that you really don’t have to do one or the other. You can do both! Treats/praise AND corrections. Which I should have realized a lot sooner but oh well, we’re here now. 😂 You explain that really well here and I think Tom on the Upstate Canine Academy YT does as well. He relates it to raising a child; would you let your child scream at a grocery store? No! Would you try and bribe them with an ice cream while they’re screaming their head off? Of course not. Letting them know a certain behavior isn’t acceptable (lunging, jumping, reacting negatively) makes complete sense when you think about it that way. I do hope that more people start to realize this. Thank you for this video! Edit: I wrote this right before you made he exact same analogy about the child and bribing them haha
How do you "correct" a dog that is not anywhere close to you?
@@icevet electric collar
@@phumgwatenagala6606 That's what I thought. You wouldn't put an electric collar on your child and you shouldn't be doing that to your dog either.
Just stumbled apon your videos, love the approach you take. Balanced and clear. Very rich information for a soon to be GSD owner. Thanks
Thanks so much Adam! It's great to hear you find our content helpful
Glad you addressed that war between methods !
Speaks so much sense especially the comparison to children ,,!!
Hahaha the comparison with your son was hilarious but spot on!
This guy is amazing!! Fantastic explanation.. Ive just done your puppy course online.. Brilliant
Thanks so much Chantelle!!
you make so much sense. thank you
Simple & straightforward ❤🐶❤️thanks
love your videos..i have alot to learn..we have a cane corso , got him a month ago , he is now 10m, smart, but missed his socializing, so can be a bit reactive to dogs and people, but getting it little by little...i am getting a whistle to help with recall, but he is getting the "leave it" comand better now, thank you Will you are a hive of information..
Very good explanation! Call whatever u want leadership or anything ,its about a mutual relationship between dog and owner ,Thanks for making this video
Brilliant! Absolute gold and so grateful! Awesome stuff here truthfully.
Well said
Well said 👏 nailed it there. Just what I needed to hear. Top man appreciate it
The communication was so good in this video I sat
So insightful! Thank you!
A demo along with the explanation would go a lot further.
This is what I’ve commented on before. So much free content out there. You should add the demo even if it’s just one or two drills.
@fadeout foto show me that what you are saying works. I know, how about you send me 10k for my 2020 Corvette. I’ll describe it to you, and oh I promise it’s as I say, lol
First of all, i agree that a demo would be very nice. That being said @@Aastan That's absurd, you're not paying him ! And actually that's how the world works, you don't ask for a "demo" dish at the restaurant just to check if you're going to order it. In that case, what he is saying kinda makes sense ... you might agree or disagree with it, but you should be able to sense the fact that the guy knows what he's talking about and has convictions. If you don't trust it, don't watch it
@@alicef5107 I don't agree or disagree that’s why I asked for a demo. Some people are visual while others can read a manual. I don't think my "suggestion" was that off base. I'm not asking for his entire dog training lesson, just show me what you are talking about if I can't picture it. Restaurant and dog training are too different things. One is a Good and the other is a Service. My martial arts instructor invited me in for the first lesson, free of charge, to demonstrate the lesson. Some restaurants gives out samples....
@@alicef5107 dinner at a restaurant and a 250$ training course are two vastly different things
Amazing explanation, wish more people would understand this, see so many people trying to bribe their dog and failing because that's what they see on TV etc
Thank you for the good info.
Thanks man!
My man!!! Well done!
Excellent video and explanation
Brilliant video dood thanks for doing them
Love the differences you mentioned between basic training and behavioral. I wasn’t getting what I needed out of my puppy’s basic training when she started showing signs of aggression. I know the biggest problem is me being a poor leader. So I’m meeting with a dog behaviorist in two weeks to get some guidance. In the meantime, I’m watching all your videos, and appreciating all the work you do. I’ll forever recommend your videos to all of my friends with pups
How is it going?

Thankyou so much I was feeling hopeless with my malinois
Thank you for this information. As usual super useful. I need to purchase a whistle. My dog is a three year old rescue mixed breed dog with a lot of terrier in him. And although he understands my commands mostly chooses to do as he pleases. Only coming when it suits him.. we live in the country side so there are a lot of very interesting distractionsvfor him. I will try to implement this new advice. Many thanks again 😀
Juust got a lovely 8yr old rescue Shepherd butch who we need to train on recall. Looking forward to your tips.
Took your advice on Crate training and it worked a treat so I'm confident this will work too
Great to hear!
Appreciate your passion and knowledge 🙏 thankyou
God bless you for this lesson dude .
I bought the course, veery excited for the result!
Hope you enjoy it!
Did it work? How do you purchase it? Thanks
Did it work?
There's a third issue. Instinct. Sight hounds (Greyhounds, Borzoi, Whippets, and such) will follow their instincts that will very often win over their obedience. I don't know that any leader can win out over the dog running after a moving object. The same goes for many of the guardian breeds who don't traditionally rely on humans. I agree with you about the leadership role and setting the dog up to succeed, but expecting a guardian breed to behave like a Labrador is going to lead to owner frustrations.
It's true....I have a grey/great dane mix and I really think she gets so focused that she doesn't even hear me. It's not that she's ignoring me.
It is very much ignoring you. If your dog understands the command and still chooses not to listen, that is ignoring you. I very much understand dogs with high/ strong instincts. But following your commands needs to be more rewarding than following instincts. Like he said, it's about your dog respecting you.
I feel frustrated I've gone to all training done everything with my mastiff he is well trained but he won't come back when playing with dogs which is so annoying he use to have amazing recall
Labs are very Obedient my guy. That’s why they use them to duck hunt.
Hi Will, Thank you for explaining this so well.. can you please tell me what kind of whistle to use?
Great information! Totally makes sense. Will you show a demonstration of this training?
Been asking for demo but no luck.
Great vid I have a new puppy and want it to learn great recall as my past dog had amazing recall and I think we are getting there with the new puppy but using a long leash plus reward and it is working at the moment
Nice one wil …still struggling with my border collie but this is helping thankyou 🏴🇬🇧🙏
very impactful
Love your videos thank you so much!!
Glad you like them!
such a great explanation of how to train a dog. My BRT was NOT food driven so I had to learn to use an E collar (properly) I sought out pros to show me how. Soon my stubborn BRT became great at recall, I could even stop him in a situation that was very close to a death match(death for the other dog) my dog was not aggressive but was very alpha and any dog that tried to dominate him, never got past the stink eye part, he would throw and pin the dog in a heart beat. I never called him off a dog that was just about to fight because I didn't want him to get attacked from behind but those times were very few due to constant vigilance. If the dog either was submissive or at least not acting dominant my dog was very neutral. But without the E collar I would have been screwed. same applies for roads, approaching strangers etc. within a few weeks needed use the collar about once or twice a yr. very few dogs are in the league with the BRT so most breeds are more quickly trained.
Hi Mike. ..what's a BRT?
@@elizabethfrank2213 Black Russian Terrier, not really a terrier, 150 lb military guard/patrol dog developed by the Soviet army after WWII. They look like a jet black Bouvier on steroids.
@@miked.7722 woof...!!
You've nailed it! You must have met my dog! 😆 You know your stuff, sir!
Awesome. No one has ever suggested changing the command to reestablish the behavior!👍
Thank you!
