He needed 4-5 times to realize you weren’t playing a game … you meant “knock it off.” THIS is the key to what most people don’t get. They expect the trainer strategy to work the first time. Consistency and being fair but firm is what works folks. 👏👏👏👏

He saw you meant business, and stopped. He licked you to say “ok I’ll behave.” Puppy needs a strong leader.

For anyone reading this: I know that dog training can be difficult sometimes, but you're doing great. Keep up the good work, and your dog (and your own sanity) will thank you for it! ❤️💕

She bottle fed him at two weeks. It's difficult for her to be strict with him because she sees him as her baby. 😊

I dare one Zac George fan to say this isn't the right way to deal with a dog like this.

But what about the positive-only treats method that only takes 3 years to work, thousands of treats and thousands of repetitions of the dog mouthing you while you try to ignore the behaviour? That’s the real answer…….

Anyone else notice the AI-ish comments on here 😂 bro there's AI commenting and replying to each other on here...

teach my 2nd hand dogs to jump at me by command, so they do not jump on own will then…

missed out on corrections from a dog mum during early stages. probably never felt a real correction his whole life so far.

This video is excellent! I had a grooming business for 15 years and train my own dogs with Cesar's methods, which are similar to Beckman's. IT'S NOT CRUEL TO BE FIRM WITH YOUR DOG! The 'positive reinforcement' idea has it's place, but will not work for behavior problems, and that's why so many dogs don't know how to walk on a leash, or have behavior issues in the home these days. Dogs WANT to know what your boundaries are, it makes them feel secure if their people (I don't call my dogs my 'children') are consistent and clear.

The first time I did the face hold on my obnoxious young rescue, changed everything!

Can we all agree that she did whats best for this dog at this young age? Don't try to fix it with treats because if you only use treats and don't have any other tricks in your bag then big puppy gonna expect treats. Every. Single. Time.

Lovely natured dog, just needs some rules and structure. Good on the 'mum' for asking for help at only 6 months. The thumb in the crease of the mouth so they bite themselves and not you was how I stopped my pup from mouthing me. It only took a few days of consistency before he was over biting himself and never mouthed me again!

That's a beautiful mix (cattle dog/Mcnab?) and at 6 months he ain't getting any smaller or weaker! What she did bringing him to you this young will probably head off several problems later if she sticks with it. Great video Beckman.

So good. Thanks Joel. This jumping/craziness is probably the most common behavior owners struggle with. By far most of my cases, involve a dog like this. This will help a LOT of people.

This is so helpful. The physical correction, repetition, and withholding of affection are so effective. Often we’ll say “No, Cocoa. No!” louder and louder, forgetting the dog doesn’t understand what we’re asking and reinforcing the bad behavior while “reassuring” them. Thank you for another magnificent video! Q: What to do if there are no safe options for play with other dogs?

Thankyou, after doing this 3 times with my 9mos German Shepard, she has stopped constantly going for my hands.

Prince showing hows it's done at the end. Priceless

Extinction bursts content was really interesting - thank you for explaining it (and bonus that we got to see it in progress)!! Appreciate your work here!😊

prince seems so concerned for the wellbeing of everyone involved, human and canine both =.]
