i love how he actually uses untrained dogs rather than trying to show us with a perfectly behaved dog

Holy crap. I have had my puppy for 5 months and walks are torture because of the pulling. I was about to get a prong collar it’s in my Amazon cart. I just spent the last 14 minutes with her doing this technique and I was so amazed that it actually works, and I could do it!! She’s certainly not perfect and we aren’t easy for a regular walk yet but if I have to stay on my deck and driveway for the next few weeks until she’s got it so be it!! Thank you!

This guy is like the guy who tells you how the magician does his tricks.

You need to sell merch with “I’ll do this all day” 😂it’s the best quote for dog training. Seriously

Stumbled on this video by accident. This makes SO much sense. I always struggled with why the “positive” trainers I’ve viewed in the past you could make NO “corrections”. I’m not even that way with my child. I’m heading out to the driveway now to give this a shot.

You make it clear that the human must commit fully to the training and not give up or just do it sometimes. Thank you for this necessary and consistent reminder.

My dog is a high energy dufus. Hes 2 and pulls me so hard he breaks leashes. He had this down in 15 min. UNREAL. I cant believe a relaxing walk is in my horizon.

Literally a miracle worker here. We implemented this for the first time ever tonight and it worked so well. We made it around the block with NO reactivity to dogs, joggers, or bikers. Might have taken us and hour but the no reactivity is such a success It could have taken 2 hours and I wouldn’t care!!

This made a huge difference with my epically reactive 2 year old Cattle Dog is got from a shelter a few months ago. I had to figure out that he was walking with a loose leash, but completely ignoring me though. Now I check on him frequently to reinforce that he needs to pay attention to me. Life is getting easier and the neighbors are impressed enough to compliment. Thanks

I'm currently in school to become a professional dog trainer and I've got to admit this is the first time seeing this method. I've been using the training method from my school with horrible results, especially when another dog approaches us on a walk....I end up looking like a fool while my dog is acting ridiculous. One of your video's populated as a suggestion so I watched a few. I got up this morning with great anticipation to apply this method. WOW...again I say WOW. On our walk we did encounter another dog and WOW....finally a pleasant walk! I recommended you the the gentleman we encountered because he has the same issue with his Pitbull.

I've been using a gentle leader for several months and my Goldendoodle would still pull. I would stop and slowly pull back on the gentle leader, which was not effective. It was so helpful to watch you work with this dog and with a client on another video. I tried the "pop" instead of the "pull" and what a difference! My dog walks right by my side now. No more pulling. Thanks for sharing!

So helpful! Especially the last 3 min or so when you showed what not to do and the right way. I have been doing leash correcting wrong and didn't even realize it until the end of the video! Thank you!

Your vids on loose leash training, reactivity, and tips in general make such a difference. Heaps of appreciation!!!

thank you. I agree with your training method and principal. It's rare to see someone with so much sense and balance. Normally with dog training, it's either end of the sprectrum, shock collar, "dominance" and what have you, and at the other end is where you can't even say "ah ah" or "no" when the dog does something wrong, both are too extreme, your method has worked best with my puppy.

The patience it takes is so important! Love these tips and love sharing your videos

that was a 14 minute eye opener. we have a 9 month old doberman 96 lbs yes I needed this. Keep you posted on our success !!! Thanks

Thank you so much for sharing this. Super helpful content. You are so clear and precise with your instructions. I love the no non sense approach and straight talk. Looking forward to many more videos like this.

Love your attitude and how you instruct. Direct, to the point and not sugar coated.

These are the best training demonstrations I have come across. Clear and effective. I am making progress with my dog because of these videos!

Your videos have made all the difference in the world for my 2 labs. I have never seen anyone explain leash walking like this. In just a few days, my dogs are both totally different on the leash. Keep up with the great videos

This is gold... My 5 months old Beagle walks so very nicely on a leash after those doorway drills, and the sudden stops & asking a sit and stay. Most people's Beagles are crazy pullers, dragging the owners everywhere, and many get lost because they run off if ever an owner drops the leash (or lets them off in public). Mine has quickly learned to sit down when I stop, and look up to me. He knows that the walk won't continue unless he does that. Today, he saw an elderly gentleman whom, for whatever reason, my puppy found scary, so he growled and raised his hackles whilst we approached. One sudden stop & leash pop as he hit the end of the leash, and he snapped right out of it, walking nicely on a lose leash, and wagging his tail at the person, but kept on walking. Thanks Joel!!!

Thank you. Excellent video. Great audio. Every time I watch a video, I get one more clue and get the technique more drilled in. I can see that really isn’t much pull on the leash, but less leeway. I definitely feel like I am training myself more than the dog.

I think it's fantastic when a trainer can explain in detail how to fix your dog's leash problems. A thousand and one thank you's Joel.

Hey just stumbled onto your channel today. I love the way you teach us and train dogs. What always confused me was the way that many positive reinforcement trainers on KZfaq will always go to treats as the answer for everything. They couldn’t show and never showed “punishment” as it is seen as cruel. Thank you for explaining in a clear and concise way with no nonsense involved. Will try this with my 10 week old Belgian Shepard. I don’t want my dog to completely rely on treats so thanks for pointing this out.

You are a true expert and an excellent teacher! Thanks for making such great training material!

IT WORKS!!! I just spent 10 minutes outdoors with my puppy and was able to get her to stop pulling and instead following me! I then spent another 5 minutes inside the house using the same technique. IT WAS A WORLD OF DIFFERENCE! I feel sooo much better, knowing I am getting her to respond. I HAD been working with my 5 month old puppy for at least two months to stop leash pulling. When I first got my puppy, I watched A LOT of obedience training videos, but nothing seemed to help. That's until I found out what type of breed puppy I had rescued from the shelter....a belgian malinois. The positive/treat based training wasn't working for her (or me), until I started researching training specific to high-drive dogs. I'M A HAPPY GAL OF A MAL!!

Best trainer by far, thanks for all the videos!!

Thank you for this. I have watched so many training videos on leash pulling and it seemed like no matter how much work I put in, the pulling got better but never stopped. Every walk was a training walk, but progress seemed to plateau. But with your video, something clicked and I saw improvement within the first minute of our walk

Thanks. Will do this. Been doing other training, but this is great. We did this last night and this morning. It took less time to get this across to Dexter. He is a rescue, but obviously he had this training before. It worked like a charm, in less than five minutes.

you are right on target,sir. love what you are doing. it works, when you put the time in.

Great info. So glad I found you. I have a new rescue puppy and these trainings are so very useful! 💙

After a 2 week board & train program, a year of prong & e-collar with a reactive Carolina dog/Malamute/Wolf mix, your method with only a flat collar worked in 5 minutes!! Starting “before you start” actually clicked for myself & my dog. At the end of the 30 min session I was able to drop the leash. Thanks soooo much! My dog thanks you too. The other corrective methods were just agitation for all of us.

This worked for my 8 month old Aussiedoodle. You are 100 percent right, it has to start in the house and they have to earn their way up to the walk. Thank you so much for this video!

I somehow used alot of your strategies without ever being told or taught, but damn you got this down to a science. You gonna change lives with this one video! Great work man.

This was so awesome. Thank you! I am going to implement this w both my older dog and younger puppy. Thank you for sharing your expertise with us so freely. It’s obvious that you want us to succeed!

You definitely deserve more subscribers. Most useful and straight to the point information that I've found from youtube trainers. The positive reinforcement only group make things so overly complicated.

GREAT explanation in "Does your dog pull?" I'm watching over & over so I LEARN! Thanks!

love love love watching your videos keep on keeping on

Thanks for the video. I did a puppy version on my 5 month old maltese with a harness and it worked so well. I did not dare to do off leash yet, but we are rolling with basics. I appreciate that you don't treat a dog as a child with the whole only positive approach

Thank you! You have explained your method very well here. I was able to walk my Goldi - super hyper crazy reactive to other dogs - without any bark nor leash pulling next to other crazy barking dogs behind the fance. With your method I was able to do in three days what I was begging for 3 years. We still have problems with other dogs, which are not behind their fences, but now I know it needs some practice for few days. Subscribed and already watched all of your movies. This is unbelievable. Greetings from Poland!

I used these techniques today with my 2.5 yr golden we rescued 2 months ago today! I cannot believe how well this worked! we walked on the street for 30 minutes with NO PULLING at all. I was amazed. I'm planning on taking her to a park and work in more distraction heavy area. This channel has foxed me and made my dogs life better. TANK YOU!!!

I am a subscriber, I love this method AND the way you clearly described it !!!

Wow! less than 15 minutes and you have almost cracked it! Thank you. I learned so much!

This is my favourite video ever! Thank you for those tutorials. We would never leave the door calmly with treats only.

hahaha omg I love this channel so much!! "they cant handle it out there"! It's great information and comedy in one. I tried these methods today and it was AMAZING the transformation! My dog could heel w treats with no distractions but whenever there was another person he would pull me to go say hi and I was a walking petting zoo. Now that I did the corrections (only mild ones were needed as he knows leash pressure and he is 6 months so I am gentle) and the stops I could walk like a normal person past other people!!! Honestly I feel like im 90 percent there after one day of trying this.

Btw, I DEFINITELY Subscribed because ALLLLL of his info is Solid and Great advice, reinforcement.....Thank You!🙋🏽‍♀️💜

This video is golden!!!! My 80 pound GSD went from pulling 100% of the walk to less than 5% with only doing this method for 3 days!!! THANK YOU!!!!

Trying this tomorrow with both my dogs In the house and garden!! Thank you so much!

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.

Excellent! We just had a lovely walk together (starting in the house). Thank you so very VERY much!

I always get something new from your videos. Even though our walks are pretty good it helped to watch this! I need to get serious.😁 Thanks so much. Your videos are the best!

This is the best training methods I have ever see in youtube, your the best bro.. Thanks for this and I am able to make lot of progress with my dog now

This is GOLD! Such improvement in just 15 mins. This pups gonna be a pro in 2 weeks.

Thank you for your step by step instructions. No one else with training videos is doing this.

Omgosh. Your videos have helped me/us. So much. We thank you 😊

I've got amazing results with your method. Also my dog got more relaxed. Thank you so much for this content!!

I definitely just hit, SUBSCRIBE! With an 8 month old puppy who is wild on a leash, I needed this today!

I just subscribed! Mind blown "Earning their way to a walk" Yes it makes total sense. I have a lot of work to yikes. this will help with my agility course training as well!

Thank you! Amazing! The best tutorial I have seen! 👌🐾🐾

I like how you beak things down in to small understandable steps! 👍😊

Other again, Joel's method is spot on..... Less than a week working on loose leash control, and my powerful American bulldog is now in MY control, and we are able to go for walks again after not enjoying our walking experiences over the past 12 months or so. 💯👍🐕😁

Another great tutorial. Thank you for your time and efforts.

Thank you so much love you video's 😍 now I know how to go about fixing my dogs 🐕 walk. Hi from Western Australia 🇦🇺

Awesome info. Trying your approach with my stubborn 5 mo. Old lab. Thank you!

This dog was a very slow learner. I am glad you showcased him to show people no matter how difficult it is, the time to train them on the leash this way is highly worth it. My dog was much more responsive to these corrections. At least indoors and on the property. Had to work harder on the road

Amazing!!! Love this. Definitely subscribed!

Thank you for explaining what not to do and why! This helped me understand what I am doing right and wrong to improve my dog walks!

man we just got a new rescue and these videos are an amazing help!

Love the info you provided. We just adopted a rescue. She is not confident outside as much as Inside. She pulls on leash. I have tried this and she has improved indoors. We need more work outside.

I had a dog trainer trying to train my puppy..the recall wasn’t working and the leash walking wasn’t working so much money and no results..I searched and found your videos one day! Then one day I interrupted the trainer and I took over the training lesson and within minutes the puppy was doing exactly what I wanted it to do…Thanks for your advice it truly helped so much. Even the trainer was surprised at the quick results.

Great video as always simply but very informative and effective.

Thank you so much for this video! It was extremely helpful for me.

Thank you for keeping telling us.

Getting our first puppy this fall. He is for service & this has to be done right. Your training methods make perfect sense. Thank you!👍💕

I did this. It made a difference with my rescue that I got as a 4 year old. I am still working on your other video of dogs who always want to be in front.

I'm so very impressed!! After just one session my dog was getting it and the next day we did round two and he's doing just amazing!! That first walk sure did take all day though hahah thank you Beckman's Dog Training!!

I swear this is the best video on leash walking. Tried this for 5 minutes with my beagle. Already improved.

Liked & subscribed. 1st time dog owner here. Your tips and videos are much appreciated!

Loved to watch your Video. Most Trainer show you everything with Dogs that are already trained.👏

After 3 months of intense research, browsing, reading and learning about dog training, after 2 months of toiling all day with my new puppy.... This is clearly the best video, the best demonstration I've seen of all.... And this is from a Cesar Millan fan....

I don't know if you'll ever read this but I want to thank you so much! The change was almost instant. I just had the best walk I've ever had with my dog. I've tried so many different things and this worked the best by far.

I have an Australian Shepard that would rather strangle on a leash and die before he pays attention to me. I feel the same way as the person who wrote that. I have been working with him since he was 8 weeks old he is now 7 months and our walk are to hell for me. I am exhausted and I am so thrilled I found you today. I have watched and listen to trainers who doesn’t seem to work. Thank you!

it worked, it worked, it worked. Thank you, now subscribed and I enjoy your intenseness, you remind me of me.

Great training thank you.

I have been having so much difficulty with leash agression and this method resonated with me because it seemed so 'common sense.' I tried it today (without the prong collar) and it worked. I had not heard of you before Mr. Beckman but I am subscribing today!

These methods really work!! After only a handful of sessions my dog doesn’t pull the leash anymore and his reactivity has reduced dramatically. I am now confident to take him incrementally into the community and introduce him to other dogs over time.

My god man! You are so crystal clear! Thank you for your content! I will begin today with our American Akita

That's a very helpful video with understandable explanation 👏👏👏 Thank you so much :) We have a 16 weeks old puppy and we struggle during walking.

Thank you for your new audio/microphone set up. I’ve been wanting watch your video (I’m hearing impaired). I have a 6 month standard poodle & I’m having a lot of issues with him being reactive and stubborn. I plan to start this first thing in the morning.

Yet another brilliant video! ty! blessings from Avalon UK

Just came across your channel, your style really resonates with me. Subscribed and will be trying this tomorrow with 1 of my reactive dogs

So good! You just earned a new subscriber; thanks!!

This was actual magic...I also found my cavapoo puppy much calmer on the walk it took a while but this was my 1st day trying it. Thank you so much.

This is my first time watching your videos and I'm excited to try out. My dalmatian is extremely food motivated, so it's super easy to train her with new things, but i know her obedience revolves around the food. She will walk next to me and never leave if I have treats, but she thinks the motion I want from her is for her to be looking at me constantly, and she angles her body in front of me so I can never take a left turn! She's focused on the reward, not on me. I'm going to give this a go!

Dude I love your no nonsense approach. Watching all your videos and working with my 10 month old black lab

This is good shit Mr. Beckman. Preach it!

Thank you!

Oh my goodness. I just found your channel and I love your philosophy! I am a firm believer in discipline and correction with animals along with positive reinforcement. So many people are horrified when I firmly correct my Blue Heeler puppy. Will watch all your videos!

We are forever grateful for how your videos have helped us 🙌 you have changed the whole game for us and our dogs.

What an amazing trainer. I’ve binge watched most of your videos and put your ideas into practice. In just 3 days my dogs are so different and seem so relaxed. My older dog is fine off lead with most dogs but occasionally has a pop at a dog. She went to do it yesterday and I just made a noise and clapped my hands and she turned to look at me and stopped!
