    Tom, whereas there are a lot of people watching what you do with the dogs, I'm watching how you interact with the owners to better learn how to communicate with dog owners that I work with. As an aspiring trainer, the dog owners are the bulk of my problems. Thank you for releasing these videos!

    I love all dogs but some are true stand out gems and I hope this training helps them realize they genuinely hit the lottery. A naturally sweet temperament with that much motivation makes for the greatest companion imaginable. He's not trying to challenge anyone. There's no intentional disrespect or ill intent. He just desperately wants to please and didn't know how. That's a once in a lifetime, if your lucky, sort of dog.

    Thank you for explaining the prong collar so thouroughly. I have a Bully who was extremely excited when we rescued her. I used the prong collar for a few weeks just to get her to understand the behavior that I wanted her to have while on a walk and now most of the time I don't even walk her with a leash because she understands exactly what I want from her. Prong collars are great if you use them properly and as a productive tool and not as a last resort.

    Nice training, at first I had a very bad conception of your techniques due to using prongs and e collars, but then I realized how you use them minimally and overall mostly train in positive reinforcement. I don't use a prong collar as I already trained my dog loose leash walking using a front clip harness, treats and walking the other way when he pulls. I got my results but took about a year, I guess we could have do it quicker with a prong or slip collar. Nice videos and keep the vibe of No Bad Dogs!!!!

      If you have a slip collar and the dog doesn't pull with it on and choke themselves out, then you probably don't need to, but it is the most effective tool at teaching correction.
      If it is as bad as the video, invest in one to teach correction and you likely won't have to use it a second time

    I watch your videos all the time and what you tell the owners is invaluable to me for learning how to train. In regards to the prong collar, my dog, who is pretty well trained always had trouble with pulling on the leash, we tried all the gadgets and tools, extra training with them and just couldn’t consolidate the walking on the leash. It wasn’t until I walked someone’s else dog with a slip, who was so responsive and easy that I realised how different my pooch was. Totally disengaged with me on the leash. Bought the prong, and wow, the progress we have made is amazing and I hardly have to correct him. Engages and settles the brain, like in this video, it is amazing. Not sure why I waited so long đŸ€·â€â™€ïž, think it was the bad press it gets and was afraid to try. I shouldn’t have worried.

      I suggest going to a professional to get help with your specific problem, but it might help.

    Thank you for the videos they are helpful I do train basic obedience in the home of clients I'm a big believer in the proper use of equipment body language so forth and so on my motto is love them train them and don't blame them I think you're spot on and I do look at a lot of your videos for Refreshers and of course as you know we always learn something new we never stop learning when it comes to training dogs you give such perfect explanations as your training the owner on equipment thank you thank you thank you for sharing so much

      If you've never heard of prong collars before I highly doubt you know what you're doing with one. You don't mess around with prong collars or use them without any knowledge. They provide pain as punishment, that is not something to take lightly. Please just go see a professional trainer.

    I always never really liked other trainer videos. You’re the only man who actually says its the owner. Because it is. Love your material and use it everyday. I also advise other owners in my facebook groups with things you’ve taught and even recommend your channel so they can learn as much as I have. Just had an argument with a lady on a post with her telling me I should only do reward based training instead of prong and ecollar cause it’s abusive and painful for them. Had to tell her what youve taught. Also that most people don’t even know how to properly use and train with these tools. I have a Husky and a German Shepherd. My German shepherd picks up fast but my Husky is so hard to train. He’s a lot bettwr than he used to br

  • @marialouisesnderskov6921

    I love this video, it is on point, shows and explains what the prong-collar actually is and does. In the country I live in the prong-collar is called a “choking-collar”. I hate that word, it reenforces the idea that the collar is hurtfull to the dog and is part reason why absolutely nobody uses it here. I try to tell people sometimes but as soon as they hear “choking-collar” they just shut down and wont listen. It is so sad. People should really educate themselves a little bit before getting a dog. Anyway I love You guys, the amount of dogs You helped, not just saving their lives but saving them from a life in stress and missery, it is really something.

    I’m a big fan of prong collars. I’m using one on a little 15 pound Chihuahua mix, because if I don’t there is absolutely zero correction. Soon as he has his “school clothes“ on. he’s quite awesome and very few corrections are needed. However, he doesn’t watch me very well. So I have resorted to using a little food to get his attention to look up at me. Also working very well.

    Omg, that black dog looks just like ours and with the white on the chest :) and behaves just like that! He's from a shelter and we have had him for only 3weeks. He's doing so much better already, but he's pulling the leash a lot! And he goes crazy when he sees a cat! Have tried Easy Walker, but now he's sore under in his armpits! We just bought a Julius K9, and I hope he will get better soon! So sad that you have sold out the safety clip and the prong collar in your webshop! Keep upp the great work Tom, I love your videos and I have learned so much from you :) Thank you!

    I put the Herm Springer prong collar on myself to see how it felt. I think everyone should do it. It just makes me think of a Mama dog grabbing her pup. My dog had become quite leash reactive after getting attacked and now with the prong collar she is much less reactive.

    I understand the benefit of training with a prong collar. But I see so many dogs wearing them all the time not just while being trained. Maybe in the future, do a video on how the prong is a training tool not a crutch.

      Teach them. Ask them to train with you, and then take the collar off.
      If the dog is collar aware, then have them wear a regular collar with it. And a long leash
      Maybe they don't have another collar, you left out so much information.

    Hi! I love your channel and it matches up to a lot of what I learned in our puppy training. How can I help my one year old lab mix puppy with his fear of every single noise outside, especially cars and trucks, really any noise. He does have a Sprenger prong collar that works well with leash control but even with that on he will pull as hard as he can to escape the cars, etc, trying to get back to the safety of our house. Any tips for me?
