I love how real you are about things and how you explain the do’s and do not’s. You’re really pretty by the way.

I’m totally teaching Watson a “get naked” command! I was having a shitty day... thanks for making it less shitty!!! Miss you guys, we need to meet up when all this virus stuff has settled down.❤️

Thank you for the e collar talk. I work at a pet store and frequently see customers with prong collars and e collars and often have other customers complain about them. The dogs with e collars are usually the calmest, best behaved dogs. (Many are regulars and we even allow a couple to bring their dog in off leash because we know this dog won’t misbehave)

I fell in love with service dogs and I may not have a disability myself but I am teaching my dog self harm innteruption because I do harm myself and it's a hard battle but my pup helps me get through it ❤️

Why are you so pretty 😫

I use an electric wheelchair I have Limb Gerdle Muscular Dystrophy and recently got a German Sheperd and Siberian Husky mix puppy her name is Shakira. I am training her myself my dad was supposed to do it he was Green Beret Special Forces vet but he suddenly died 9 months ago so it's just me and my mom. I cannot find a service dog trainer to help me. It's hard because I physically can't do nuch but I'm still doing it. Once I finish training Shakira, I think my dad would be so proud of me. You have helped me a lot

I just came across your channel today and I'm so glad I did, your very calm and collected with how you present your knowledge. Thank you so so so much for the e-collar talk, so many people love to claim its abusive "because its shocks them" but they're the same people who slap one on their dog without learning to use the tool and thinking it'll automatically correct all their dog's problems. Unfortunately due to people being under educated and misusing the e-collar they are illegal in the UK, but always lovely to see someone educating other in the correct way to use such tools.

Love this ty so much for showing me how to teach brace and counter balance work. I plan on using this method with my future pups. Also loved the ecollar talk. Thank u for the harness info much appreciated. Love ya girl. Stay safe and give Denali boy love from me and Daisie Mae aka Mae Mae

I home trained my service dog it’s mutch better I think less expensive and nicer he is the best

I need that collapsible bowl! That was cool, I'll have to check them out. Also, love that you've got ways to protect yourself on you. More power to you, I think it's badass. Thanks for making a video like this! I was wondering why no one really had made a whole video about the subject.

Thank you for making this video! I hope your shoulder heals soon. Been looking forward to a video like this so I can learn more about gear all in one place. Feel better!

Girl! I LOVE your spunk! ... and ADORE your pink hair! I've subscribed to your channel cuz I NEED your knowledge. I was finally awarded my PTSD (I'm a disabled veteran) service dog. I report to train with her for 10 days THIS coming Friday June 18, 2021. I'm scared, but thrilled at the same time! I know you get that. Thank you! 💜

People are SO uneducated about e-collars 🙄 Ignorant people *love* to jump to the conclusion that everyone who uses an e-collar with their dog is an evil abuser and uses it to hurt their dogs. I use an e-collar most of the time with my SD, just because it’s an easy way to communicate and I know he responds well to it. Obviously we worked with my trainer first to make sure it was introduced right and he was comfortable with it and all that stuff. He works offleash sometimes, so personally I feel a lot safer having a tool I know works for us as a team if something were to happen and I needed 100% control in a crazy situation while he was offleash, like an evacuation at school or something. I just wish people would educate themselves instead of being rude and harassing other people for using a tool in a perfectly safe way just because they don’t bother to educate themselves on how it works.

Glad to see proper education on training tools! Where I live choke, prong, and e collars are commonly missused. I'm very glad to see proper education!

“Any tool is a weapon if you hold it right” -A.D. (or visa versa right!?!. Intention is the name of the game). Thanks for showing your wheelchair setup. Been thinking about what mine is going to be when I have a larger dog (going from ten pound service dog to a standard poodle. This was helpful.

hello from a fellow zebra/ service dog team!! I love your gear and patches so much!!

Omg thank you so much for this video!!!! I am just starting to vest training my 1 year old labrador retriever pup... We have a solid foundation of the basics and a few more moves... I am starting super slow with the vest so that she knows when the vest goes on she feels like she is a rockstar. I absolutely love love my e collar. I barely use it anymore but sometimes puppy brain pops in and a vibrate works perfect .. excited to start with her .she is so smart that she picks up work easily... I come from 45+ years of training horses so she is new to me .. I have had lots of pets but she is my first service dog .. I have severe lupus and walking and moving is getting so hard. Nice to see others work with their fur babies.... Cheers from Canada!❤❤❤❤

I enjoyed this video, very informative! Thanks so much for taking the time to make this video.

This video really helped me as a new service dog handler!!!! Spectacular video♥️

Hello and I'm a new subscriber. This was pretty helpful and Thank you for sharing. I'm gonna be a new handler in a little over a month from now and didn't know what else to get my service dog. Stay safe and healthy during this pandemic.

Love your hair! Also, thank you for this video, it was super informative and helpful!! :)

You are beautiful and I love your videos I'm happy that you were talking about these

I heard your cat and thought it was one of the four kittens we have screaming until you acknowledged it haha. I kept getting up to go check.

wonderful video💯, thanks for showing your stuff💙

Thank you for doing this video! I'm in Canada and just in the process of getting a service dog that I'll be training myself.

I got yelled at before for being "abusive" for having a prong collar on my service dog. We honestly tried both a gentle leader which did ok but was sick of the "is that a muzzle, does he bite" comments (he is a doberman so they got scared) and the martingale dog collars which he still pulled so hard he choked himself and basically walked on just his back legs. The prong is the only thing that has made him walk calmly and he has no scarring, no puncture wounds, no injuries cause I dont yank him and abuse him with it. So you are very right, when you spoke about the e-collars, its not the tool its how you use it. He's been on it for 5 years now and never once has my vet ever said he sees signs of injuries or issues.

“I talk about it with my friends and we laugh at you.” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 You’re fucking great! You’re intelligent and you’re gorgeous. I love this video. I’m so glad I clicked on this video. 😁🌸

You are so inspiring! You inspired me to start my own channel!

I just got my prospect Goose! He is a German shepherd puppy! Since he is still growing I got him a regular harness and put patches and a leash wrap in the front!

YOU ARE SO PRETTYYYY!

I seriously appreciate this video. I’m training my first service dog, which extra challenging because he is a rescue. We are still in our first weeks of basic bonding and manners, but I really need to read up ahead of time. He will be a PSD if all goes well!

your message for the shock collar NEEDED to be said. thank you. and you’re really pretty, dyed hair suits you. 😊

We use an e-collar and I train dogs on ecollars with a company but yeah ever since I got teal biothan bungee strap for it more people comment and questions.

Thank you. I loved watching your video.

Thank you for this information. I work with people if many varied abilities and this video is quite informative for people who don’t get it. I also appreciate that you “dress” your dog for work vs. dressing up your dog. When a service dog has dyed hair, wears bows and costumes and tutus, it is very difficult to tell the difference between a service dog and a pet for many people.

Thank you now I know what gear not to get for my service dog but sorta nervous because this is my first service dog ever I am just getting one so yea lol anyways I'm a new subscriber to your channel and I love it already!

Thank you for this advice!

So thankful for this video, was starting my mobility harness now that my vet has given us the go ahead. Was struggling to find gear that would actually fit my dog. Most times I have to order Xl but the company your harness came from was very helpful in answering all my questions and concerns regarding fit. I'm pleased to say my hound is just a large in their gear, glad I called to ensure I get the right size the first place. Bridgeport k9 is also very reasonably priced and I was able to do some customization. Thanks again

The snide looks I get with my service GSD in public with her having a Dogtra Ecollar on makes me so uncomfortable. She's in her first year so I'm using prong, Ecollar, flat collar, and vest. Thank you for this, I'm a veteran permanently and totally 100% disabled for PTSD, and after watching this video I feel more confident in what I'm doing.

Thank you I also had a service dog and use e collar a lot but people misconstrue it as a shock collar

I think you're pretty cool thanks for teaching us about the gear

Thank you so much for telling me every time you took out a self defense thing or when you would have it go of if you didn't tell me I probably wouldn't react well

I love the way you brush off haters! ^_^ Wish I had your confidence/attitude/whatever the right word is 😂 Also, I love the way you explain things and give proper advice to people. A lot of people are clueless then watch KZfaq videos with a load of drama queens in Walmart screaming ‘FAKE SERVICE DOG!!!’ when their own dogs aren’t even fully trained 0_o So yeh, it’s good to watch a decent video from an SD handler for a change :)

I like your EDS vest, very cool. As a fellow zebra . I myself have VEDS, with a host of other stuff of course. My service dog is Tahoe a Doberman. Anyway thought it was interesting to see another zebra with a service dog. Hope you are well. Blessings.

Thank you for explaining the e-collar. I've always thought that they were abusive but I understand that it's not abusive now

I heard your cat in the background and started calling for mine since I thought my cat was meowing 😂

Very informative!

Everytime your cat meowed I kept thinking its my cat trying to get in my room

that is so true that people make tools abusers not the tool its self is not dangerous unless used wrong

Love your channel by the way

For your pull straps you could always do a single paracord cobra braid and then do the king cobra with fleece instead of paracord, it would make it soft but sturdy still :)

Thank you so much for uploading this! My service dog prospect comes home to me in January and I want to make sure I’m fully prepared to work with our trainer.

You can put freece over a Paracord pull strap that way it doesn't stretch

My old dog had a martingale collar but it was slightly too big for her. Luckily she didn't really pull much for me unless she wanted to run. I didnt know what they were called until now!! Thank you for this!

Denali is very well trained

Thank you for this!

great video and i love your hair !! :)

I look at the thumbnail and holy crap that’s a lot of gear!!!!😂😂😂😂

You’re really pretty @.@ also we have a similar body type!!! And thank you so much for helping !! This video made stuff much more clearer 😅

Me and my new service dog vibing with our single vest and 4 patches : 😎

I hear you, I get looks from people for using a prong collar. I used to be against prong collars until I did reaserched and found out it was the best option for my dog (watching trainers using it properly). I tried the prong on my own neck first then I tried it with my dog and best tool ever. Helped so much with my dogs dog reactivity along with other training like treats and avoidance if it gets to much so wait till he's calmed dog then try again. Now he doesn't react to dogs and don't need to correct him as he rather have treats and knows the dogs will go away and won't enter his space. So much more relaxed because before he couldn't even eat treats infront of another dog as he was that worked up. I used a haltis on him which never did anything but make sure he couldn't pull me down but he would pull through haltis.

Id really like the links to these in amazon! (if you got them from there!) Definitely needed this video

Good idea to have protection on their gear... Strays are always an issue for me since I can't drive and tend to walk wherever I need to go.

Tysm for the advice

Awesome video, also I love your leggings!

Just found your account, love the videos! Thank you for sharing :-) Hope to see new content soon!

Omg I lost my shit when you yelled out 'Alice' cause that's my name lol

Omg my dog and Denali look like twins my dogs very narrow and short for being a German Shepard but their coloring is so similar and head shape wow

I'm making my own vests, capes, and harnesses. I'm working on one set where it matches my work clothes which is a bright neon orange shirt that glows in dark.

I am not a service dog handler but I’m extremely educated. I absolutely love how upfront you are about these do s and donts’. You are seriously helping educate so many people just from this one video thank you

can you please do a video on the confidence training you were talking about?

I hope your shoulder heals fast I love your dog they are my favorite dog what would happen if you were to ignore your service animal

How do you protect his feet? What do you do and what gear do you use during the winter vs the summer? How do you keep your dog's paws protected and your dog cool when it's hot vs how do you keep your dog warm in the winter or when it's raining and you have no choice to be out in the weather? Can you do a part (2)?

HOW THE FOK YOU SO PRETTYYY LIKE HOWW! WORKK😍🎉😌💅

This video was super helpful for me and I’m sure it helped many other people. Would counterbalance for dizziness need a light mobility or heavy mobility harness?

Where did you get the zebra pattern harness? I couldn’t quite make out the name you said. That is exactly what I’m looking for! 🙃❤️❤️❤️

I’m not even a handler yet and already have an Amazon list for service dog gear ready to order with 22 vests 5 leash wraps and 2 leashes lmao 🤣 😆

I have a service dog, where did you get your harnesses from? The black one that has fluff in it

Service dog gear: ASP. I love you and I appreciate you. You are amazing and gorgeous. Anyone who has handled a service dog in public knows this isn't overkill.

I have a puppy who I want to get a vibration collar for. My parents hate they idea because they got a Dalmatian returned to them who got abused with one. I’m well aware how to correct with a choke chain and pinch collar (I need a well fitting one of those, just for a little extra “hey!” That I can do with my fingers) and I am sure I can use a vibration collar to good effect and only when I need it, which is not often. He already has very good recall, coming almost every time he is called, but there’s still that 5 percent that I really want to work on because it usually has to do with another dog that we “have”. He technically belongs to the neighbors, but we feed and treat him for things. It’s not that his owner doesn’t. He just doesn’t go over there to eat. But we live on a road where that 5 percent is not good and that 1% where he crosses the road could be deadly.

I might end up having to get a seizure alert and response dog for my epilepsy. (I have around 2-4 seizures a month) After a seizure, I am usually very weak and become off balance extremely easily, so I was wondering if anyone knows if a mobility handle might be something to look into or if there might be a better option. I just don't want to end up having to do anything wrong that might hurt me or the dog. Thank u!

I am new to your channel so I just wanted to know why you carry weapons. Also is an amazon vest the shape of the vest? I loved the video!

Fat stands for Fantastic And Talented

I wanna get my dog trained for a service dog. I took him in five below since docs are allowed and he is not very well but i hope i can get him trained

I have to use a martingale on my boy because his neck is so thick that a flat collar can't be tight enough to not fall off when he looks down without it being to tight where it should normally sit.

I’m super lucky that I am able to do light mobility with my dog (20 1/2 in) HES only thirty pounds lighter than I am and HES a muscle breed but I wouldn’t think to do it at all with a dog who isn’t meeting requirements and health exams

I’ve been training my psd for a few months. I’ve been using an e-collar that has a beeping feature and only use the shocking feature when she does something that’s dangerous to her and I only use it on the third of 9 levels as this is the lowest level that has any sort of affect on her. It doesn’t hurt her, it gets her attention. It’s a moment of realization that shows on the dogs face that you’re looking for when training with an e-collar. You’re looking for a change in body language and that’s when you know you have the right setting on it. They AREN’T inhumane IF YOU USE THEM CORRECTLY. The beeping feature on the collar I use is a positive reinforcement for a dog. If you beep the collar while you give the command, it helps the dog learn faster. But once again, for those that think e-collars are abusive or inhumane, they aren’t. Do your research, talk to trainers. E-COLLARS ARE NOT ABUSIVE IF YOU USE THEM CORRECTLY

So what's the reasons why you refuse to buy from Amazon? Are they bad quality or something?

non-service dog related question but I recently rescued a new friend for my service dog and I was wondering what I could do to boost confidence in him

What video editor do u use??

What shop did you mention for the green and black vest? The autocaption didn't do a good enough job, so I don't know if they've shut down or if I just didn't spell it right

what are your suggestions after my dog gets her x-rays and such for mobility she is a great Dane and is already trained for psychiatric work but still working on it i am 140 pounds and she is 62 pounds she is 5 months old currently i dont know if there is a spacific age that mobility work should start or if i should wait until she is fully grown and just focus on psychiatric work until then

Would you recommend the martingale collar for training heel?I’ve seen a lot of people using prong/e-collars for training heel but I’m not really comfortable using those on my dog.I was using a head collar but my dog didn’t care about it at all and leash corrections were way too hard.I definitely need an upgrade from the flat collar because my dog literally chokes himself out on it 🤦‍♀️

Why do you not like amazon vests? (I am new to the SD community)

Hello ☺️ I’m a new handler and my poodle is my SD. I was just wondering if I could use a pull cord for grounding? (No pressure on the handle/ weight) The pull cord moving in my hand helps to keep me grounded during an episode.

Maybe I just didnt hear what you said but where did you get that Green and black one at 24:15, thank you!

love the video. However amazon vests are sometimes all people can afford. They are still valid

i wish i had that much money but i have 8 pets and i spoil them and right when i get money i just have to get more toys instead of saving for a good harness so i just use one i made it dosent look too good but it works until i get more money

I'm am trying to find a good choke collar Can you tell me Where you Got Yours Thank You, Love your videos and I hope your Shoulder gets better And Stay Save. ❤

Can you link the vest website?
