The pulling is an easy fix that will allow you to walk him while you address his training needs, your blue heeler also has issues that need immediately attention. Stating your dogs are "healthy and happy" is an excuse for their lack of training, and you know this deep inside your consciousness. It isn't 'IF' there will be a dog fight, an expensive catastrophic injury or you get badly injured yourself but 'WHEN' these events will happen. I am 62 and have had high energy/drive dogs throughout my life, I also work and train my dogs 2-4 tines a day every day during their lives. Currently I have two very high drive breeds, a Belgian Malinois and a German Wire-haired Pointer but after getting yanked off my feet twice (strained/pulled muscles, nerve damage, mild whiplash and a few abrasions and bruises) I put both in prong collars and it never happened again. Prong collars aren't meant to be constantly yanked on in a nagging way but used as an instant correction that's unforgettable combined with a hard NO!. I would look for a balanced trainer to help you sort this out before you get hurt to the point where you'll have to make a difficult decision for your dogs because of health. A well trained dog is easier to place, This is the hard reality for people our age.

Awesome! Thank you!

thank you brother!

Glad it was helpful!

The one and only dug, what other trainers do you like?

@@KyleTheCorsoKid I'm still determining that, Michael Ellis, Gypsy Stratten, and Hans-AlpineK9.

​@@dug757Michael Ellis can do what hans and gypsy can do he's just know as a sport dog guy but his knowledge covers everything dog, even breeding, guys had 60 litters of malinois Ivan balabanov is another guy like Michael very deep deep knowledge really interesting ideas(TWC podcast) also breeding malinois since the 80s

​@@dug757have u seen shield k9 he's another good resource for all aspects of training To many people get caught up on the personal protection vs sport dog Training When u understand how to train a dog both ways u can combine them both A sport dog can be a personal protection dog if the foundation is correct and the dog knows the man's the issue not just the equipment Some things that helped me Learn Premac principle Classical conditioning prey vs defence and channeling from one to the other Understanding the dogs state of mind and how to motivate ur individual dog Understand frustration for the dog it's good and bad Understanding reenforcement positive and negative Understanding punishment positive and negative Dogs like patterns which can be good and bad depending on the specific situation and

@RobertCabral_on_te-le-gra-m is this a spam? @robertcabraldogs

There's one man on the real dog training side that could crush sack George, nate schoemer is the personality and character to dispatch sack George in such a way, nate schoemer is that super nice guy also a killer metaphorically
