I taught my puppy to wait the ok for eating, exiting the crate, or getting Toys. A way to teach focus may be to give the ok when they make the eye contact on you, rather than the food or toys.

I absolutely love that you use Rottweiler puppies in your videos. I have two Rottweiler puppies that I am training now. They are 12 weeks old today and they are learning a crazy amount.

This is the most detailed video on dog training I could find. Can you also mention the age of the dog when someone could start teaching certain tricks?

Hey cristin! Ah you’re so lucky!! Having a food motivated dogs is sooo good for lead walking!! Use high rewards, reward him checking in to you alll the time at the beginning! Also use his dinner at home to teach that heel position! It always helps teaching the dog where we want them to walk! As always thank you so much for your comment 🖤

Most of the time my dog is more interested in what ever is making him pull ( people, cat or other dog) than my treats, affection or commands. How do I fix this? Thanks great video. Edit: just finished watching the video. Will be watching the heel position video. Thank you for the great information. Subscribed!

@TheCanineCoachDogTraining 4 жыл бұрын

This is because the environment is to rewarding for your dog so it cancels out your reward. Your award effectively isn’t as good as the environment! You need to up the reward AND lower the level of excitement your dog has for a distraction by making the environment more boring. Do this by teaching lots of games, obedience and focus!! Be more fun than the environment :) hope this helps :)

Thanks for the advice. I found the 'changing direction' really made sense to me because whenever my horse would act up in the riding arena usually when I was working him in a straight line, I would then start changing direction every few seconds and it was then that he had to focus on where he was going and listening to me instead of focusing on trying to buck me off :0

@TheCanineCoachDogTraining 3 жыл бұрын

Hi lee! It really doesn’t matter what you use. The most important tool is patience and persistence. It takes the time because we are trying to create habits against the dogs natural desires. Work really hard for a month and then check your progress! Btw I literally just use any collar or lead. It’s the training. I wouldn’t use a harness though it’s a lot harder to guide the dog where you want to go especially when changing direction and of course harnesses are designed for dogs to pull!

I have a 1.5 yr cocker spaniel, mostly pulls due to wanting to sniff every blade of grass, every leaf that blows and anything that moves 😂 he hates the lead but is great off lead. He is not treat driven at all, his ball is the only thing he will focus on. Any tips on using a ball as a reward? Lead pulling is the only thing I have struggled to train him not to do and it’s so frustrating

Trying it all 🙌 I have a 4 month old Rottweiler who's very smart & sometimes a bit overexcited. The trainer in his current puppy class wants him to use a gentle leader.. I wasn't a huge fan of the idea though- currently he's in a flat buckle collar and only pulls when he sees someone or something he really wants to get to.. which can be a bit dangerous for me when the sidewalks get icy over here in Canada 😆

@TheCanineCoachDogTraining 3 жыл бұрын

Oh wow! You’re so far away! I’m glad my video found you!! :) the most important part of teaching a dog to walk nicely on the lead is conditioning the tension! We need to help the dog become calm and We need the dog to respond to that feeling of a small bit of tension without conflict! You should take a look at my latest video as well as you see me actually go through the process with a dog that pulls!!

Our dog is a collie lab cross, 7 year old and a rescue and he is awful on the lead. We have a harness and halter which has improved massively but he gets used to it then pulls again and I mean lunges forward. He's a full male and has to scent mark everywhere and a very anxious male that is not treat motivated at all. He fixates on cats, birds you name it and struggle to get him to focus on us because he doesn't bother with treats. He wasn't trained as a pup so I'm hoping the change in direction will help on walka

How do you get to the point of no longer needing treat motivation?

@TheCanineCoachDogTraining 4 жыл бұрын

Hey Erin! You get to this point when the dog fully, 100% knows the heel command on the verbal command without a lure! Because when you’re at that point the dogs reward is the freedom of walking and the alternative is you apply the tension and the dog no longer walks. We are conditioned the pup to enjoy the feeling of a loose lead. Loose lead = freedom tension = stop

We’re really struggling with our staffy pulling on the lead. When there are no distractions he heels really well and walks lovely but as soon as there’s a person or dog he pulls like mad. We’ve tried the techniques in your videos but still struggling. Can you give any advice or could we arrange a training session with you?

@TheCanineCoachDogTraining 3 жыл бұрын

you need to organise some walks with another dog so that you can control the environment and teach the dog principles. its hard to teach in changing distracting environments! you need to set up the scenario you are tring to fix and repeatedly go through that scenario to show the dog how to act. time and patience.. but you can do it!!

Hi. I have a huge problem with my puppy. He is 4 month old and he is something like shepherd crossbreed. I did all your techniques and it works perfectly at home and i did focus training really well on the outside too.. but leash walking is really really frustrating-he mostly doesnt want to walk at all he just sits down and dont want to move- when he wants he is ok and he follows good and isnt pulling.. but this sitting down is really starting to be frustrating and i lose my patience rapidly :( I really intensively worked with him focus and leashing at home for 1 month and i dont see much improvements Also he hasnt got anything which is super uber motivating him.. food works the best but he isnt all the crazy excited about it

Deffo try the changing direction every time he looses focus then and really reward him when he looks up at you almost to say.. “why are you changing direction so much!?” But the changing direction when he loses focus, not when he eventually pulls but when he actually loses focus first will really really help you! Obviously really work on teaching the eye contact at home to :)
