Welcome to Dreamgaits. We created this channel to share our experience with feedlot and homeless horses we have taken in over the years to rehab and rehome. We are not a 501-c3 nonprofit so every dime of care and training comes out of our pockets. We are a private "rescue" and we have rehabilitated and rehomed countless horses over the years. We have a lot of experience and want to share how we rehabilitate and retrain gaited horses. We provide tips for those shopping for horses so people get the right horse and fewer horses find themselves at auction. Please consider subscribing to our channel. We are committed to providing informative, beautiful and hopefully entertaining content while spotlighting the plight of feedlot horses without graphic content so that our page is suitable to most ages. If you are looking for a new trail partner please consider taking a look at the gaited horses we have available. When one of our horses gets adopted another is saved.Thank you and happy trails.
Lila and Hershey taking the Cloud Rider Test #horse #gaitedhorse #horsetraining
Hershey is a "gaited" chocolate Rocky Mountain Mare available in Raleigh, NC. Her rider is a college student who has been home for the summer and has dedicated her summer to advancing her horsemanship while volunteering to help out with our horses. Our spend several months with us before being offered as available. They go through extensive ground work and under saddle work including time being ridden in arenas, both covered and uncovered, on trail and in open fields. They are also trained on an elaborate obstacle course. This is a video of Lila and Hershey taking their Cloud Rider evaluation. Credit goes to the rider but Hershey has been Lilas sole training partner in all of the lessons leading up to this evaluation. If you have a stiff, resistant, pacey, horse maybe this type of training will help you build the soft supple horse you have always wanted. The answer to having the horse of your dreams might be in your own barn! All of our horses were "thrown away" by owners who did not have the skills to train. Very few gaited horses get the training we provide. We offer this to our horses to secure their future and keep them out of auctions and feedlots for life. Then we match them to the right owner. I hope you enjoy this video.

Training dogs is simple when you understand how animals learn. Treat training is not a natural way for dogs to learn and in fact can erode the relationship between owner and dog. A treat trained dog is never really trained. It goes through life begging for food, begging in the form of behaviors such as sit, down, come, etc, etc. In this video I introduce how easy it is to train an adult dog wit...

Aussies are such smart dogs! I love that you are training them to be service dogs. I always wondered why alot of service dogs are golden retrievers when there's so many dogs so much smarter than golden retrievers. ❤❤❤
Yeah, pretty much most dogs LOL LOL For sure a lot of different breeds and sizes can be service dogs. Small dogs are easier to travel on a plane with for sure and you don't need a big dog for a lot of service needs such as allergen alerts, seizure alerts, etc, etc.
Oh my goodness I HAD NO IDEA THAT IT WAS CALLED A REVERSE SNEEZE! I have three Pomeranians which are known to have trachea problems. One of my Poms gets these reverse sneezes all the time. And I usually massage his neck up underneath his chin and it usually fixes it. But the next time it happens I'm going to try the cover of the nose thing! Thank you so much for your post I just came across your channel and subscribed. You seem like such a wonderful dog trainer. (I am by far NOT a trainer) But love to learn anything that helps my dogs be more healthy and being taught correctly. Thank you❤❤❤
Hi @pommymommyrox I hope it helps you with your poms. My dad had a pom years ago and this fixed her every time. Just getting them to stop straining for breath for a second or two seems to put a stop to it. Works on me too as it happens to me sometimes. good luck and welcome to the pack. You know, everyone who has a dog is a dog trainer! We all strive every day to do better.
it's actually the same thing with humans
Yep.
How would you walk a big and small dog together? If they wouldn't switch around it would be nice lol
Size shouldn't matter. Teach proper position.
I have trained my dog to not pull. Also when in the dog park she comes when I call her. She is a loving and caring dog. If another dog is smaller than her, she plays with them carefully. 😊
Nice job and thanks for the comment!
What great songs. Lila & Hershey are wonderful souls. Would love to know how to help with the horses since you do on your own.
Very sweet of you to offer. I am not a 501-c3 I am a private rescue, but some of my puppy adopters help me out from time to time and it is greatly appreciated as it is a costly endeavor but I do what I can. You can contact me through my website www.kaleidoscopetoyaussies.weebly.com Thanks!
Ok now do that same method with a wirey 100 pound gsd that pulls and wanders regardless of putting them in a heel position
LOL! It can be done. But you have to start all over in a small room or yard. It takes work. But it can be done. I have trained many, many breeds to do it from big, (dobies, sheperds, dalmatians, Rottie, to small, min pins, poms, etc. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Great tip. I always wondered how owners would correct this behaviour.
Glad you liked it and thanks for the comment.
You're moving too slow, obviously the dogs have shit to do!!
LOL!
I have tried that and many other things. I never could stop my dog from pulling the leash. She is very intelligent and does everything else much like I expect her to. But this is the ONE quirk I could just never fix.
This!!! My dog is traumatized though. So he lunges at most men to defend my mother and I when we are walking him. He has gotten a little better with age, but still fights me when I stop. I have to remind myself. It is HIS walk. Not MY walk lol.
It takes a lot of patience and repetition. Refuse to move forward when the dog tightens the leash. Practice in the house, in your own yard a lot. Take the time you would "go for a walk" and train at home for a few weeks. Good luck.
@@dreamgaits I have tried for 9 years. At this point I think I can safely say that this is just a quirk that my dog just happens to have. There's this 19th century rulebook about horsetraining that said: "If your horse is not behaving to your expectations, follow these steps to determine the cause for it: 1. Have I made a mistake? 2. Is the horse injured, in pain or sick? 3. Is there something within the immediate environment, that may disturb the horse? If all 3 do not apply then, and only then, you may assume that the fault lies with the horse itself." I find this a very interesting approach to training. It invites you to think ciritcally, and even after all else fails, to understand that an animal may just have a piece of personality.
i dont have a dog nor have i ever had the pleasure of so, but i will remember this for my future pup !! ❤
Good that you are doing your homework!
If you want people to watch and learn from your videos, maybe try to keep the sarcastic remarks to yourself lol “Congratulations you trained your dog to do it”
Thanks so much for watching and for the sarcastic comment! LOL LOL!
They are just telling it the way it is 🤷♂️ don’t like it then that’s too bad
@@dreamgaits my comment wasn’t sarcastic
Just some constructive criticism
My 92lb dog drags me , it’s miserable
He/she can be trained. Start all over, in your house, in your yard. It can be done!
Yeah, just stop, even if it's strong enough to drag you, apparently.
i tell my aunt this all the time with her mini! he leans in to pull when you stop walking i told her she has to do more practice with him
Yep. As soon as they (owner and dog it takes two to pull) start pulling she needs to stop and regroup.
@@dreamgaits She becomes a little impatient with it. I told her about the stop and start method soon as he starts to pull stop make him heel and start again. But the moment he gets distracted or see something he wants to smell he pulls and leans into it when you try to pull him back. Also do you recommend something besides a slip lead?
It must be SO satisfying to have helped that gorgeous horse to reach her full potential. Not to even mention saving her life.❤
You have NO idea...
@@dreamgaits You obviously put a lot of time, effort, and money into doing this, so it follows that your heart is right there, too. Hershey IS fabulous. Her gait is incredibly smooth. I don’t know about these things, but even I can tell that.😁

Love how your dogs follow for training as well. Been doing scent work, find it in plastic egg and food puzzles you can buy. I would love some more ideas or even a video. I think they are getting bored. I have added in morning prior to feeding and they love that, sure has helped. Sharing this also. Thanks
I think you are asking about food puzzles but I don't use them at all. "Find it" in the grassy yard I think you have seen that video where they run for about 1/4 mile after my golf cart then seek out food in the grass like a giant snuffle mat but I prefer interactive training over puzzles. Thanks for sharing!
Love it! Sharing it! Your training has changed our dogs, us too (I do now need to work on Ellie she's super excited when tennis balls & herding balls come out) & even ones I'm helping in the shelter. I see they are getting out faster.
Oh wow so great you are training in the shelter and helping dogs find homes. This kind of training happens fast so perfect for shelter dogs. Good on you! Hold the tennis ball behind your back when she gets over excited. Wait for her to calm, offer a sit or at least standing eye contact then throw.
Thank you so much for this. I work full time so trying to exercise my MAS like all the trainers say to “tire him out” is impossible for me. I don’t have the 3-4 hours a day to exercise and it’s way too hot right now in Georgia to try. We train regularly and yes we play frisbee, fetch and go for walks. I appreciate you doing this video.
Hi Pamela, Most trainers on you tube are full time trainers and show in some sort of competition. They are totally disconnected to the typical dog owner who works outside the home, has kids to shuttle to this and that, etc. Their dogs live all day in a cage and get out for training for competition or to make a youtube video then back in the cage. They really dont have a clue how to live with dogs in a normal every day fashion. Sounds like you are doing a fantastic job with your little MAS. Just as an aside, it has been broiling hot here in NC so I swim my dogs. If you have that opportunity give it a go! I take mine to my pond or a local lake. They love it and we all have fun.
@@dreamgaits thank you!!! We have a kiddie pool he LOVES and have begin teaching him dock diving at a ladies house until we get our pool done. Your videos have been a great help on some things we have come across with him.
This was good for me to see today
Hi Shawn, That makes me so happy!
I have a 8 week old Australian Shepherd that I started training two weeks ago. I have been using the treat method and she has been doing so well. Only problem is, when I don’t have treats, all the training is invalid. So these videos really help. Another issue I have been having is, when I put a leash on her to train, she either A. Stops moving entirely and shuts down B. Has a full on melt down then makes her way to not moving entirely/shutsdown. Any advice would be great!
Hi Cade, Your puppy is too young for intensive training. If you started at six weeks with food training you need to stick with that for awhile because it sounds like she gets confused and frightened and then shuts down. I don't know what kind of collar or harness you are using but I think you are putting too much demand on this puppy way too young. Train her as much as you can off leash with your treats. Get her to come to you and follow and sit. Add the leash and collar or harness NOT a slip lead at this age unless you are converting it to a slip lead harness and practice the come, follow and sit with your treats. Do not take the puppy for walks. Keep her home and just let her drag the leash as you treat train come, follow, sit. Play with and bond with her and go easy on the training until she is 12-16 weeks old. Then you can introduce the pressure to her slowly. This dog sounds emotionally and mentally too young for what you are trying to accomplish. Slow down and enjoy these baby puppy days.

We got our first toy aussie a year and a half ago. She's a doll BUT she loses her mind over anything with wheels (bikes, cars, the vacuum, etc.). She leaps and barks like crazy and you can't do anything to snap her out of it; finally, a dog trainer found us a small prong collar, and that has been a game changer because it gets her attention. We just had an hour long walk and she only lost control for one weird scooter that rolled by. As she gets older, and now that we have the prong collar to help us when she gets fixated, she is learning to walk well on the leash regardless of what rolls by. As for energy, she's a nut lol. We walk her for least an hour a day at the off leash dog park, with a lot of fetch and running the whole way. Rain or shine, this dog needs to get out! We also play fetch inside in the evenings, and we have the horsewhip toy you showed in one of your earlier videos; horsewhip is her favourite game and hubby plays with her for at least half an hour a day. We have also done hearding training and work with her several nights a week. All that to say, we have still had some issues with carpet chewing (that was a new one to me 😬), but on the whole, she is becoming a lovely, obedient, and sweet dog and people ask us about her all the time. When they say they want one, I always say, lots of dog in a little package. You need to be ready!
Hi Headstronggirl, Thanks so much for the comment and it sounds like you are just headstrong enough for a toy aussie. Yes alot of dog in a small package and not for everyone. Of course, each is an individual and some are more laid back than others. Nice job with your little one!
This was a big lightbulb moment for us. The way it was explained to us is puppies have 4 needs; play, chewing, exercise and training. They are all important and all distinct. Neglecting any of them for long will result in undesired behaviors.
Hi Dana, Yes, and adult dogs, too. The four needs theory is simplified as they have many other needs as well but I would agree these are probably in the top four. I mention chewing in this video and should have expounded on the importance of chewing after eating.
Stop pulling it out your making me sick
LOL! You are funny. It is not attached to her and it needs to come off. It doesn't hurt at all.
She was preparing for the Ice Age 😁
She sure was!
Pepper reminds me of another relative, Sundae. It’s nice that they play together so well. I never get tired of watching how well dogs behave when you’re on the other end of the leash.❤️
Thanks! Yes the two of them have a blast. So much for don't get same sex dogs. Both are female.
@@dreamgaits Pepper is Sundae’s sister!
@@stevehassenfelt5812Yes she is Sundae's sister! 🥰🥰 Is your puppy from the same litter?
Pepper is from the same litter as Sundae. Pepper and Lucy have the same father (Storm) so they are half sisters. They are great together.
@@stevehassenfelt5812 i have a two year old son of Storm and Blue, and am lucky to live near Sheila's animal habitat. Who is Lucy's mom; is she younger or older than Pepper? It's cool how much Pepper and Sundae look alike. My dog is Dash; Sheila used him for a bad example in some two year old videos, showing how quickly some bad behaviors can be fixed. We appreciated that “attitude adjustment.” 🤣
Hey there bestie Dreamgaits ❤ Have a beautiful day ❤ thank you for this great video ❤ I put a bone in a cardboard box 📦 if Hendo has a lot energy 😂 I can’t take him for a run because my body is not good ❤But he gets good walks with my mother in law and husband ❤ he is sosial with other dogs ❤ enjoy ❤hugs from Hendo and Rita

Australian shepherd best dogs ever ..and yes they need land activity and man are the stubborn and defiant yet loyal..I’m on my second ..the first one was so kind but when a dog would come up to my kids on a walk she would absolutely fight crazy to defend them
Hi Chest, I don't find mine stubborn or defiant, but they do have a strong working drive and yours found their job defending your kids. Sounds like you are a fan since you are on your second one! Thanks for your comment.

Yeah this is good ! Hendo was exited today because I was having premiere when neighbors with Noldus came over .

Ha ha, thanks for watching, hugs to Dash.
It would be very interesting to see some progress on untrained dog, epsecially with some occured problem and how your dealing with overcome them, bery interesting approach, everywhere i see snack reinforcement, which sounds exhausting. I have only cats and learn one of them few tricks with that approach, but cant imagine having dog to use that on daily basis everywhere i go 😮💨
Hi Jak, I two dogs coming that don't know this training. When they come I will get some video of where to begin and how to progress. Treat training is ridiculous. You say you only have cats so I am wondering if you are thinking of getting a dog. A whole different ball game for sure!
@@dreamgaits i am thinking of getting a Shiba, but need to convince my wife about it 😁 and also revisit this decision few times myself since this is much more responsobilities than a cat. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge ! 🙂
This makes so much sense. I realize that I have been giving my 7 month old Aussie way too much freedom. She loves people and other dogs. The problem is she jumps on her hind legs and moves her front paws like a circus dog to get to everyone she sees. It makes it so hard to manage her when people come to our house or going anywhere in public I have tried putting a house line on her even as a small puppy and she chews through it pretty quickly. She also will chew through a harness while sitting at your feet if you take your eyes off of her. I’m excited to try the flip lead and stepping on the leash to stop the jumping, but do worry about being able to stop her from chewing on the leash.
Hi Rebecca, At seven months old put a regular flat collar on her and attach your house line/leash. You have to correct the chewing! She has no idea it is wrong without making it uncomfortable for her to do it. She is old enough to correct. I would quickly pull it out her mouth in a rude way and "HEY' or "AH AH" However provide her something appropriate to chew instead. I use real bully sticks with no problems. Make sure she is getting plenty of exercise and interactive play. She sounds like she is bored and/or has excess energy. You can train using the slip or slip harness but when she is just around the house you can just use a regular collar and lead.
Thanks so much for the great info. Keep up the wonderful videos. I have been binge watching them ❤
I am a novice dog trainer and appreciate your videos - thank you. They make much more sense than the other youtube videos that I have seen. I have had a jack russell for a couple of years who is mostly a good boy (a bad and sometimes inconsistent trainer - me). Very social, and rather lonely after his companion (an Australian Magpie) died a few weeks ago . So we adopted what we thought was a kelpie/jack russell from a dog shelter - he had been found roaming the streets - but I think turns out to be a kelpie/boxer about 9 months old - my own assessment. Lovely dog but needs training - especially around impulse control and walking loose on lead - he's pulling and not focused on me at all. I'm going to try this method (in your teach your distracted reactive dog to focus and heel) to help him understand heel and loose leash. I feel that he really is too big to go on a table - 19 kilos and about 25 inches high but I might get my father to knock up a box for the purpose to give him a defined space to stay on, to teach him good sit, down and stand. And I will take your advice not to take him out walking until he has these skills under his belt as I feel like I am only reinforcing bad behaviours at present as he is highly stimulated by other dogs and wanting to smell everything swinging around on his leash etc and the more I correct him, the more recalcitrant he gets. Do you have any specific advice or have I picked up the gist of your training? Thank you in advance from Australia.
I would encourage you to watch the four recent videos I posted on Practical Dog Training part 1-4. You are so right to keep this dog home and train and bond with him. You have no clue what kind of past he had or if he had any training or if any of the training was good so you need to break it down and start all over like he was a little puppy. At nine months he is still a puppy for sure, just a big one! The box or raised bed is a great idea for sure. If he is truly boxer/kelpie he needs tons of exercise! Be sure to give your other dog who just lost a best friend a lot of extra attention. He lost his bestie and now your attention is split and really more towards the new dog, so make sure your other dog is involved in training and gets tons of xoxoxo.
Cushing's, maybe?
Just hairy in winter, smooth in summer.
I just found your videos…finally someone that makes sense!! I have a 1 yr old Queensland/border collie mix named Ruby, and I am training her to be my service dog (I’m Deaf). She was not a rescue. We live in an apt, and I am in my 60’s. She gets plenty of exercise as there are grassy fields around the apt as well as a fenced dog park attached to the apts. I did the “name and recall” as in the video, and she was stellar. In the house. Both standing and sitting. I took her outside using the slip harness (brilliant idea!!) and brought along the 30’ lead. When we got to the grassy area I attached the long lead and tried to do as you did in the video. She forgot her name. She forgot any semblance of recall. I had to literally “reel her in.” What I finally ended up doing, because I wanted it to end on a positive note, I let her get about 8’ from me, then say her name…she would then come and sit, and I gave her a treat or pets (at random). After 5 wins in succession, I took her over to the dog park (few people use it so we were alone) and let her sniff around. She is really nose-driven. I took off all the stuff and just “let her be.” Did I do it right? Should I start out with a shorter lead? I have both a 10’ and a 15’ leash. Should I have taken her to the dog park first and get the sniffing more out of her system? I do always play a rousing game of fetch and/or tug to get some of the excess energy out before trying to train her. I hope I included all the info you need…again, so many thanks for your common sense, so refreshing after being told this, that and the other, from other trainers on CZcams , all of which was contradictory, and of which none really worked.
Hi Victoria, Thank you for your comment. She did not forget her name. She doesn't know the full meaning of it yet. Yes, perfect in the house because you were TRAINING the name and it will take several weeks of practice in a variety of locations (thats what the long line is for) before she will really understand. Instead of a long line I would use a belted flexi because you can give her a little "pop" even if she is way out on it. Name, wait a beat if she doesn't respond, give it a little pop and she will come. Reward with praise, pets, try to not use treats when on the line if possible. Dogs don't generalize very well, meaning as soon as you change locations you sort of have to "retrain" and your dog doesn't understand name, come or just name if you want the name to mean come. Practice in the house, go out and practice, then let her off to run. That's what I would do, but don't call her when she is loose because she can ignore it. Do whatever it takes to get her back, ball, whatever and then leash her until you know she will come off leash and that might take weeks of practice. I will do a video on this for you if it ever stops raining. Hurricane Debby is here.
Beautiful girl.
Thank you!
Very nice 👍🏻 Hendo doesn’t go out without me . He is waiting until I say you can go out . But I want him to tell me if someone is at the door (I don’t feel safe if I am home alone) I will practice with him and barking if the doorbell rings. Sometimes we have music on and don’t hear it or I am downstairs in my son’s apartment and then I don’t hear the doorbell but I can hear him barking and go up . So it’s on and off for what I want 😂 But we have a door like your front door between our hall and our front door . he can see what is happening through the window 😂So he can’t just run out of someone open the front door. Sorry my English is not so good 😂 We live at the country and it’s only family that comes by . I know if friends are coming over 😂🎉 Enjoy the day See you around CZcams streets Hugs and love 💝 Ps I don’t have a stick but I just stand infront of him so he has to back out. I use my energy and point where he must go .
You do bring up a very good point! Barking to announce a visitor that you are not aware of is a valuable service dogs provide to us. So appropriate barking would be fine to me if my dog would stop when I tell it. I can tell by all of Hendo's fun videos that he is very very bonded to you and very well trained.
@@dreamgaits thank you so much for your kind words 🤩That means a lot to me
Wow such a great lot of info..I do not take Jax out of our yard anymore because of the pulling..Jax is such a great dog other wise ..Only 7 months old ..knows most commands..Now I keep him on the yard and trying to teach him exactly what you are doing..Thanks so much for your videos..❤️🐕Oh by the way Jax is an Aussie/maltipoo..
OMG I bet Jax is a cutie! You are so wise to do your training at home first and then go back to very short successful walks. Remember, it takes two to pull, so if you take one step in the direction the dog is pulling the dog is being rewarded for pulling. Good luck with Jax and thanks for the comment.
I bet it's gotta feel good to get all that shed fur off
No doubt!

Hi Marina, That works for dogs because you can blow the dog dry with a high powered dryer, but if I wet this mess and wait for it to dry to shed her out I would be waiting until the cows come home and that would be a long time because I don't have cows.
do you have any videos about controlling demand barking?
Not sure in what context. Is the dog standing in front of you barking for a treat or something? I don't have a video on that but to me, barking is barking and I am going to correct it.
yes, he'll bark for treats, he'll bark if he wants to play or if I'm taking too long to go outside. he'll also bark if I'm giving him commands and he gets frustrated
Great information! Question would this method also work for fence jumping? Heard you say gate. New 8 yr old boy has jumped the 5.5 foot fence twice and I set up boundary flags & we raised the fence. But I still need to work on leaving it. This seems easier. Loved Storms joke.
Wow! You did watch to the end. Thanks so much. I don't think it will stop fence jumping but you can install electric dog wire on top if he is jumping and catching the top and then going over. Dog electric has a low shock and a pulse so it won't fry birds that land on your fence. He will only go over it once if he hits that shock wire.
