Probably one of the best articulated videos on curbing aggressive behaviors that I’ve seen to date. Thank you. Going out to walk my reactive GSD right now, with new skills to try out. Thank you!!

I cried at the end when he walked by the other dogs without reacting. So wonderful knowing this guy now has a chance to be successful. Great video!

That was an interesting case! The dog and owner both came a long way to a beautiful relationship. Again you have figured out and tailored the training sessions to best advantage Tom! A skill and a gift, Tom!

You always amaze me how you take a dog and turn them around, you are absolutely a gift to the dog world. Love watching you work!! 🙂

In this dogs ,defense,if his littermates were killed,and his mother rejected him..he was basicly raised as a Singleton Pup..He didn't learn bite inhibition or any other canine social skills from his mother.. .and littermates . He is clearly insecure ....Glad his owner found you Tom !!! ..She clearly needed professional help !!! ...Great video !!!! Grrrrrreat Job as always !!!

I'm always so shocked at how people come in saying "I tried everything" but the problems are literally so simple. Almost every person doesn't hold their dog accountable, their incapable of clearly communicating commands and they hold the leash so damn tight😂 Great job explaining to the owner and teaching them how to communicate with their dogs!

I just LOVE to see the changes in these reactive dogs!! You just know their lives are going to be so much better for it. Cudos to the owners for getting help and being open to your input. ❤️👍

Wow, that’s a grabbing headline! I’ll have to watch later but hoping all turned out OK for all concerned!

KUDOS to that owner for not giving up. And for you NEVER giving up on dogs & their owners !!

Amazing. Dog aggression sends owner the Hospital. Really cool

The more I watch your videos working with reactive dogs, the more I see how the issue always lies with the owner. In many cases, too, the person has selected a breed of dog that does not mesh with their lifestyle or personality. I started training dogs when I was about 12 years old and am now 78. I no longer train, except maybe to help a friend or neighbor who has a problem, but I so much enjoy watching your method which is almost identical to how my method evolved over the years. You do such great work for dogs and their owners!

It would be so cool if you did a "check up" type thing where you revisit clients and show us how everything is working out :)

I love your videos. Every time I get discouraged about my dog’s behavior and want to give up, I watch one of your videos, and it gives me the confidence to keep trying. My dog is so good at home, but on walks, all his manners go out the door. He sees another dog, and the hackles raise, and he starts barking-not listening to commands.

Tom you are amazing! I had a reactive GSD 20 years ago and boy I wish these videos were around then. Thank you for all the dogs you are saving!

I figured out the "change direction when the dog is pulling" strategy on my own one day while I was walking my German Shepherd. I got to thinking that he started pulling because he wanted to get to something that was ahead of us, in the direction we were going, so, I would change directions so he would essentially not getting what he was in such a hurry to get when he started to pull!!! It definitely worked, I have also gone in right and left circles, alternating them so he would focus on following my direction.

Wonderful video 😊 Relaxing with a reactive dog has been one of the hardest things I’ve had to learn. Everyday we get better and now he is much calmer (as am I), and the odd time he’ll just do a small whine and keep moving. We just have to work on passing dogs on the same sidewalk, and we’ll be golden. These videos help a lot with learning techniques to help us on our journey 🥰 Thank you 😊

i wish all training clients were like this woman! humble enough not to argue about or justify why she does this or that a certain way and immediately able to take criticism and teachable not only in lesson but then again in practice! In just a few short minutes you had her remove any wall of defensiveness, open her vulnerability, be absorbant and take good direction, then be able to reproduce and perform what you taught her. Dog trainers train people too, btw. Some humans just need a looooooooooooot of buttering up before they're ready to forget everything they know and let you teach them xD

Atlas' paw on the shoe of his human made me teary. He's like "I got this. We can do this!" 💜

Yay, thanks for the longer video session, Tom. 😍 You're so popular now! It is great and we are all so proud of you!!! You deserve it. 👏 Just thinking back to those frequent, raw (and crappy video quality 🤣) sessions and how far you've come. I go back frequently to those and still share them with my clients regularly! So it is indeed a treat when you share these private sessions now, so appreciate it 🥰 Such an epidemic with all the reactivity right now in 2022......85% of my clients are reactive in some way or another as a main concern. So please keep it up with sharing these cases, so so so many dogs and humans can benefit, and deserve to benefit and learn to read their dog before spending hundreds or thousands of dollars on training or diagnosing. Plus, reactivity is so general.......there are SO many reasons it stems from, so many contributors- not simply fear or dominance, all these tiny contributors unique to each dog's personality and neurochemistry...coupled with the energy and communication of the handler....one things is for sure that you always say, obedience and leadership trumps all else. If you can have confident control of your dog, no matter the issue you can obtain proper management. You're right, would rather have a perfectly obedient man-eater than an out of control puppy any day! All these fundamentals matter. I also find that proper exposure to the stimulus they typically react to (dog/human/bike etc) is hugely important as well, people tend to avoid the triggers but I feel exposing to them more frequently (as slow as needed) creating and alternative more desired behaviour is more rehabilitating in the macro, in the long run.

A case study on terrible breeding : mixing powerful breeds without knowing what you are doing > letting the father be close to the young puppies > mother wont nurse, either this is a statement to the bad temperament picked by the crappy backyard breeder, or a statement to how stressful the incompetent breeder made the environment, it could very well be both > you end up with a potentially dangerous dog that missed out on a lot of crucial development, which I'm sure the breeders were intending to sell for profit. A lot of people out there would just hear this backstory and immediately give up on the dog. Massive kudos to everyone trying to give him a better life.

Appreciate your explanations, always clearly laid out. Thanks!

She is such a great student! Shows when you listen and practice, it comes together!

By far the best training videos I’ve seen Very helpful Your a godsend brilliant work and thanks

So clear an explanation it's transparent. Thank you for choosing to share your talents.

If you ever come cruise Australia let me know. Working German Rottweiler owner here.

That leg swing with some leash pressure is a game changer!

I am going to sign up for the members club today!

I have a two-year-old Yorkie who is very reactive due to trauma and separation anxiety. I, too, tried to re-home him, but he started biting the respective parents and children. I know that with proper assessment, treatment, and above all else, training, I can help my precious dog be less fearful. I need to gain his respect and trust. Teach me for I am trainable and so is he. Thank you Tom.

Need my daily tune up with Tom

Thanks for the tutorial for the proper leg swing!

You are just so amazing at teaching the owners... it is beautiful to watch and brings me happy tears.

she has a great voice and energy.

forgetting the baggage! omg such a good message. my old mastiff was reactive so with my new mastiff I was super tense and truly had to forget that I had a reactive dog and just start fresh!

I love seeing how you reinforce following through on commands! I think this is so vital to create good responses from your pup.

Hi Tom. Would it be an idea to do a small video and explain to people that they need to get a dog that is suitable for them. Not a dog that is too high maintenance. It could save many dogs from the wrong owners.. Love all your videos. Keepp them coming.... Great to see you in England!. 😊❤

Another excellent video. It's great to see regular people overcome their challenges in dog training.

I wish I would have known you years ago. Our dog, Stafford x Greyhound, came to us at 12 weeks, we were his 3th owners. And his last!! (He's 4,5 years old now) He had so many issues. Separation anxiety was one of the biggest. By giving the dog structure and confidence, we came really far. But now it's all about handling him. These videos help me a lot to take a look at myself. To keep getting better, and maybe help other dogs and their handlers some day :)

He is a beautiful dog

Yay I was on time today!! Good girl

This lady is still looking at the dog the entire time. I know he’s being nice but hopefully seeing this makes her even better.

Best channel for learning how to deal with your dog. I have looked at so many channels and this one is by far the best.

I’m finding your videos now. Thanks ❤

That dog looks like a doppelgänger to my gsd x rottie ♥️ what a cute boy.

I was looking for this video. I just watched the short.

Amazing progress for both owner and dog 👍🏻

I am so grateful that people like you exist it is such a blessing to everyone with a reactive dog. Having a reactive dog can feel isolating and demoralising, but seeing your training work time and time again gives hope and motivation to keep going!

Reggie is so gorgeous! As well, happy to see such progress with this woman and her dog!

Great info here Tom and kudos to the Lady for understanding her fears are creating a problem. Love this type of video. Thanks : )

Fantastic

Absolutely the best trainer videos I ever watched. Everything is so tailored to each dog. I have learned so much watching these❤️

That was an awesome video! Your communication with the owner was spot on, fantastic job!

Thank you for these videos.. I volunteer at our local humane society with dogs. Great to see and learn from. Much appreciated.

How great to see both of their confidence grow with clear explanations and modeling by Tom. Definitely a huge difference once she started to praise the dog too! Kudos!

What a great video. I have a reactive cattle dog who loves people to death but can’t be around other dogs as play friends. This video gives me hope.

He is so smart

Learned so much from you

So excited for the whole video on the n Membership club

I have a Maltese poodle and she is very reactive to other dogs. We have a rabbit and they are best friends! She does well with people and ANY other type of animal including cats!! But other dogs she wants to like bite them and murder them….. it’s like super sweet and then super insane when we see other dogs on walks

it is so interesting 🤯 and extremely important to recognize/interpret 🤩 the origin of the different reactions in order to be able to react accordingly. It's the WHY is my dog doing this/that....what is the cause of it. I must understand the "language" my dogs and "talk" to him in a way he understands. This was an impressive lesson. Thx for the video showing us this important things, like allways! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I have 4 Dogs.... 3 Huskies ( 1 Male , and 2 Females ) and a Poochin Female.... I watch All Your Videos, and I have learned So Much !! Thank You So Much For Everything 😁 🐕🐕🐕🐕 #NOBADDOGS

You are so amazing! I just love watching you work with the dogs!

The knowledge you have is amazing I'm joining members club. Hope I get picked.

I suggest marking narrow ovals or rectangles in the floor paralell to eachother for the clients and dogs to follow.. And then a long oval around the perimiter walls..Like a racetrack..

My name is Dave and we have 2 German shepherds . Names are max and Louie. Birthdays are 12/12/21 , they are brothers. It's unique situation and there great together . Nothing outa the normal realm of behavior I believe but that's only my opinion. I've been following no bad dogs for along time now and really use your redirect methods. My only problem is that I'm being challenged with some really serious heath issues ( cancer ) and these guys are in my heart like my children. Your the most amazing trainer I've ever watched they would be soo lucky and I would be very proud of how much better they could become under you for a day. I wish I was closer to you but unfortunately my health won't allow me to get too far away. We live in nj and have a pretty big fenced in yard with the woods backing the property. Any help or trainer training you would be able to give me would be very much appreciated and these 2 guys would love you alot for it. If you made up a kit called no bad trainers how great would that be... some video on training the trainer. Oh I love it. Please never stop doing what you do. There's never enough of what you bring to there world and I'm very grateful for your time and efforts. Thank you for the knowledge.

Your videos are so helpful. I really appreciate what you do!

After listening from 10:00, Atlas looked up (at 10:08) and said, "It's true, Mom ... that's what you're doing" ... He is a gorgeous dog, btw.

I wish this was available in my area. I have an intact year old 80# Anatolian shepherd that is insecure and fear reactive. He was a stray/rescue. I’ve never had a dog with these types of behaviors. He tried to bite my son and the neighbors have had issues with him even though I live in the country with no fencing. I haven’t found anyone that is able to help. I found one trainer which is expensive but she really didn’t help much and the dog is super difficult to get in a vehicle. This channel is very informative with training. I am researching anti bite muzzles, collars and learning to train him so I can keep him if it’s possible.

Very, very helpful. Now time to practice, my 10 month old GS is extremely strong & it’s impossible to go to the neighborhood park.

Hes such a beautiful dog

My rotties behaved better than my border collie right now.

Another great job!

youre the best out there...period!

I love your videos. I would like to see more with people who have multiple dogs.

Excellent video. Lots to think about and learn to implement. Thanks so much.

Yesterday before I was awake, my husband inadvertently let our dog out. Instead of remaining calm and getting a leash, he attempted to drag the dog home by the collar. The dog rolled on his back and failed around in protest. My husband, who has a medical condition that makes his skin VERY thin, was SHREDDED from claws all over both arms. Now we are dressing his wounds to prevent infection. NEVER panic or try to wrestle an uncooperative animal. My question....is there a way to counter the "alligator death roll" some dogs do when captured by the collar??. My poor husband. Omg.

Such an informative video, loved the explanation of place! Thank you.

@10:47 straight up money, thanks for sharing the exact movements!!!

Amazing video Tommy as always. I so hope you come to Texas.

Your videos have been invaluable in helping me train my reactive dog to be calm and collected around strange dogs/people. Thank you so much! My problem is when other family members walk him, they refuse to use proper leash handling and let him do whatever he wants. He reacts to other dogs when my husband walks him. He is a different dog when he is handled by me, much more calm and less anxious. Do you think this will cause him to regress over time? I hate to think all of this work would be for nothing. Do you think I should not let others handle him?

I love your videos! They really help.

This video finally convinced me to sign up and here’s why. This woman was used to an easy house dog and had no clue what to do with the reactivity. Tom didn’t judge, only explained how normal that was. I bought the sweetest, Rough Collie bitch which included a must breed to a Smooth stud so the 2 breeders could get puppies. We kept the two remaining male pups after she said we should put one of them down because it was a fearful. The other pup became an alpha working dog and we had our fearful working male. Argh, both reactive. We did the puppy schools but didn’t follow up long enough. 8 years later they are overly aggressive toward our rescue puppy and now we are aware of what we failed to do. This video really hit me because that woman is me 😉. The Shepherd was so intelligent and WANTED to do the right thing, it was so obvious to see and it was the “simple things”. No judgement, the lightbulb going off that working dogs want to work and do their job (I knew that but somehow it hit me differently watching this Shepherd), and how he showed her this is how you move your legs when you turn, and reactive dogs just want direction. I need to learn this!

What happens in a zero distraction environment you still cannot get your pup to play attention? Not unruly but just is sitting unresponsively. He might be confused as I’m trying to read my rescue’s cues. The heel exercise as we change the direction is hardest for him.

Hey Tom, I know you talk a lot about reactive dogs and mine are pretty well managed, but what do you do when another dog attacks your dog? I recently had a situation where a rottie attacked my 2 GSD's. They followed my directions, but the rottie kept coming at them. I know it's the owner's feelings they react to, but how do I get over my fears of another dog attacking? I really want to continue going to the beautiful parks we have, but am hesitant now.

This is awesome and educational

Never disappointed. Another great video.

Great video, so much in here that I can try at home! Thank you!

Hi Tom. What you are doing is amazing! Your video helped me a lot. Thank you 👍💪 I'm from Poland and many people here support you a lot! I have a request, could you add a Polish translation to your YT account settings? I will be very grateful 😃

It would be interesting to see this with a dog that isn't attention/love focused, how the skills translate and when to treat, but this is the first video I've watched so maybe there is one 😊

Loved this vid!

aww what a sweet mal!

Amazing video and Atlas is a beautiful boy 🥰

Keep on sharing

Excellent info!

My Aussie Shepherd is the same way. Fearful agression around me and other people. Just nervous, depressed, and submissive when I drop him off at dog daycare.

Top trainer. There must be plenty poor trainers

This normally happens because people don't socialize the dog with people and other dogs. And when you play with your dog you are NEVER supposed to let them put their mouths on you. Ever. Also, the dog is going to react to how you react. So you have to stay calm.

This actually helped a lot also my dog shakes his head with the slip lead 😂 even before I’m holding it

Great video!

Apparently there was a study that suggested dog's behavioural patterns are relatively unrelated to their breed and instead they saw different breeds had more similarities between eachother
