I agree.

Yesss

Or just give me name and address and they will never treat a dog bad again.

Those are not trainers, the are ignorant and lazy “ psuedo trainers “! Assholes! Thank you for proving these losers wrong! You are a Real trainer and thank you for training this dog the Right way!

allan timmons so true I am fortunate to have a program that trains veterans and dogs to be come Service Dogs after sometimes years of training. I hate the whole “fly by night” folks. Is your Rouge a German Shepard Dog? Thor and Bill

allan timmons call me 7623834344 if you need a service dog and your a Veteran. Thor and Bill

BDurant he is a lab/Shepherd mix

Larry reading the dog is so important. The best trainers have a box full of training tools and they know how to use them. Good work.

Keep doing what ur doing!! Sounds like you've done an amazing job! Are you thinking about making that a career? The world needs more people like you that's for sure. Don't know if you would be interested, but since you seem to have working dogs, you could teach them some scent tracking. Just to challenge them, stimulate their brains even more. I'm only recommending that to you bc you seem to have a very dog savvy mind and i think you would do great with it. There's tons of info on the internet and I can "tudor" you lol. Give you guidance, advice, tips, etc. No hidden motives here....not trying to get anything out of it for me. Just like to help dogs be all that they can be! Hope the pack is doing well!! Take care.

the only dog i owned who had a choke collar had it for the simple reason we hardly ever used leashes and she would pull normal collars off it was there to keep a tag on we always walked her with a harness

I want to he open to learning but don't understand. Why use the collar off? If it works off do you ever use it on? Why use at all? What separates it from another option that doesn't use pain as a consequence?

@@benharper1506 as with everything, it comes down to personal opinion and preference. What I do with my dogs requires consistently sharp responses in order to ensure their safety because they’re being shot over (all of mine are working retrievers). The reason you would “start” a puppy wearing a collar that was off was so that they got used to wearing it and didn’t later associate any collar pressure with the collar itself. Otherwise they get “collar wise.” Meaning that you can’t ask them to do anything without it on or they’re likely to blow you off, knowing you can’t enforce your commands. As soon as my yellow puppy was big enough to bear the weight of a collar, he started toting one around. It was like his clothes. Had to put his clothes on before we went outside to play. And this was long before I ever started teaching. By the time I was ready to start collar conditioning, he was sharp and consistent in responding to all commands he then knew (sit, heel, down, place). Which is where most people go wrong and misuse a collar. Whatever path you pursue for you and your dog, I wish you well.

Beautiful and crazy dogz😍

But this man uses e collars himself so I don’t get why he’s on here saying people who use them are garbage assholes he’s got plenty of videos of him using e collars so 🤷🏼‍♀️ I think someone’s a hypocrite here

You just incorporate it into any training where you want an implied stay. So if teaching sit, the dog has to stay in position until you give the release command. Do the same with down/stays, going through doorways, staying at heel position etc.

All it is, is the “stay” command. It’s simple. You teach them to stay anytime you don’t give them a command. Once they have it down they will stay on their own. Any time you are ready to release them you state your release command and praise the dog for moving from the “stay” position.

Yeah I thought of the same But I use “yes” as the release command So the dog gets confused And idk what to do then

Teach dog what it should be doing first, then add corrections later on for breaking obedience. Don't correct behaviors, correct lack of compliance of known commands.

Don’t worry about corrections for a bit, think of a new way to indicate a mess up. Look up non-reward markers.

rui kosta yeah and?

You obviously only watched that one video then! Otherwise, you would've seen him holding a remote ALOT MORE! Larry is an avid e-collar user. He gets excellent results. The proof is in every video. Don't understand why you chastised him.

To clarify, the trainer was a woman that worked with the rescue and also fostered some of the dogs prior to being put up for adoption. Because he wasn’t going to make it to the adoption floor, the shelter contacted this rescue group asking if they would take Brody in. Brody was in a terrible state of mind when he was pulled from the shelter, insecure and terrified of anything and everything. As part of the adoption through the rescue, you are required to do at least three training sessions with the rescue’s trainer. Which in this case also happened to be the same woman that was fostering Brody for 2-3 months after he was pulled from the shelter and prior to being put up for adoption. He was still in a pretty poor state of mind when we adopted him. But right away when we started meeting with her for the training sessions, she showed me very harsh tactics, which were WAY too much for a dog in Brody’s state. Once she started with the ecollar, she literally said over and over when Brody wouldn’t listen, “we’re going to break him” like Brody’s a wild horse that needed to be broken instead of being built up to be the best, most confident version of himself. I can assure you, Larry did not make this video for views or to gain popularity or attention. He made this video for ME, the owner, to show me and teach me what he was doing to help Brody work through his fears. And in the process of making it for me and posting it, maybe he can help other owners whose dogs have similar issues. Yes, he is obviously very unhappy with the previous trainer’s methods, and rightfully so. But he did not make this video solely to bash the other trainer.

Kacey Muller Calling someone and “asshole” and saying their private parts are small doesn’t seem to be necessary . If it wasn’t for that lady, he would possibly be dead, but she deserves to be put down over and over. I get dogs like this that a previous rescue abused and dogs that trainers have messed up on, but I would never bash them publicly, especially to make a point about being compassionate with animals.

Follow the Leader K9 I agree that if it weren’t for her, he may not be with me right now. So for that, I am incredibly thankful for her. But Larry is just calling it like he sees it. He’s not naming names, so what does it matter? He’s just expressing his opinion. If it bothers you that much then stop following him. But I for one appreciate his honesty. People need to know that that kind of stuff on a dog like Brody is not even close to okay. It’s a form of abuse. Screwing a dog up even more than he already was. It was completely unnecessary. But yes, I am incredibly thankful for that trainer because if it weren’t for her I would not have Brody. But I’m also thankful for trainers like Larry speaking their mind and speaking the truth and helping to educate owners and trainers.

Kacey Muller and I’m sure he eats meat and you do too and those animals being tortured every day until death doesn’t matter since they aren’t dogs. And I’m sure you both drive by homeless people with nowhere to sleep at night and have never offered them to stay in your home, it doesn’t matter because they aren’t dogs.....I think people should know the truth, that people rescuing dogs have it hard enough and do so much work for free and then get ripped apart if they make a mistake or are not the best dog trainer. I don’t see Larry doing anything for free other than talking shit. Nobody Rescues dogs because they love hurting them, and with this video maybe you can kill the lady’s drive and people like her to keep rescuing and struggling to understand how to work these dogs nobody wants or thinks twice about killing. Then the next dog like yours can be dead instead of having been even given a chance by the person who tried their best. “Pure positive balanced trainer” says everything anyone needs to know about Larry- he’s a hypocrite and he doesn’t make sense. I saw a video the other day just when meeting the dog he tells the people “it’s ok if you want to kill your dog”.

And unless you have a video of how he was before, u really have no idea if he is actually worse than he was before. It’s this kind of “watch out for the evil e collar trainer” that gets ecollars banned in other countries and states. It’s videos like this that get a dog killed before anyone can even try and e collar on vibration. I know this makes you feel high and mighty that u “saved a dog” from being tortured, but 4,000,000 dogs a year are getting euthanized in the USA I doubt hardly any are getting killed because they are messed up from a bad dog trainer. Most are killed because people are so scared of hurting their dog they will take it to a shelter before ever even trying to use an e collar. Glad you and your dog are good and my mom was wrong when she said “2 wrongs don’t make a right”. I was honestly watching Larry’s channel because I loved his training style, then I started seeing all his “im the good trainer, now let me bash other trainers more than anything else” and you are right I’m unfollowing him.

no, those trainers need to be called out. they’re mentally traumatizing helpless dogs.
