    I’m so glad I’ve found your videos, they’ve been so helpful and encouraging. I have an 8 month old Doberman pup & we’ve been working a lot on heel walking. The trainer we were working with switched us to a prong collar and it’s definitely made a huge difference. She’s finally able to walk at my side for the most part and follow commands. The biggest difficulty we have at this point is seeing other dogs & wants to run over to meet them. I always have treats with me to redirect her attention but she goes from like 0-100 so fast when she sees another dog. Any advice?

The dog has bit and nipped towards my wife and I and had one bad bite on my wrist. I really don’t want to have to put the dog back up for adoption, but I’m really struggling to be the leader for this young dog. Any advice or class recommendations would be great.

    Hi Will, i really love and appreciate your videos. I live in Canada and we recently got a German shepherd puppy. I’ve had dogs most of my life, but this is a totally different experience. All my previous dogs have been normal, meaning not afraid of other dogs and people so I thought that a shepherd would be the same. The problem I am having is, my 5 month old puppy is barking so much at other dogs, but not because she is mean, it’s because she is afraid of them. Please help me fix this. Please!!!

      How about joining a training group led by a knowledgeable dog behaviourist/trainer? Sounds like your dog needs to get with other dogs in a controlled environment in order to desensitise her and help provide her with a different outlook. The actual training will then be a pure bonus :) Good luck!

    Hey man, love the video. Just got a 2,5 year old former stray (Morax). Lovely in house but outside he likes to pull and when he sees another dog he wants to scare them away. After watching some more of your videos and some research online I want to try training with a prong collar, But some things i wanted to ask before. he is now used to walking in a harness. I dont want to stop using the harness completely, so what would be the best way? to use it only during training sessions and then after the regular harness again? Will the dog learn not to pull when after training he can freely pull again? or should I use it for a shorter periode of time like you did in this video (1 week) and then when he is used to the prong switch back ? Hope you read this and can help me (or anyone with knowledge or simialr situation) , Cheers

    Hi there! Great video, which definitely helped me decide to try on a slip lead for my miniature American Eskimo. I am having an issue though where despite the lead being high up and snug, it keeps slipping down. I assume this is because of his hair allowing the lead to slowly slip down. I am uncertain how to proceed due to it not sitting properly at the times I need it the most (his triggers for other dogs/bikes/etc) as the lead will be lower and the pressure/control I apply is not the same because of it + hitting the middle part of his neck more. Any ideas what to do? Thanks a lot.

    • @alexisd8190
      @alexisd8190 Před 2 lety

      I use slip leads and I haven't found one yet that doesn't slip after a while (I have labs so it happens with all fur types), my dogs are at a point now where I can have it loose at the base of their necks but I know your frustration! The only thing I have found is finding a lead with a tight rubber stopper which means it takes longer for it to slip and although it is annoying I used to adjust the collar regularly throughout the walk. It us a good time to practice sit and stay even if the walk keeps getting interrupted. possible hold the lead more upright even though it is awkward. I hope someone else on here has found a hack for keeping it from slipping as I will find it handy anyways.

      @theextremeend5289 Před 2 lety

      @@alexisd8190 Thanks for the response. I've definitely had to readjust the lead every so often, and thankfully, if there are no "triggers", the walk is calm enough that it wont slip down. I still haven't figured out what to do when a trigger does appear...for example a cat or someone on a skateboard, he seems to think that me applying pressure means he should sit, but can't seem to get his attention back like Will does.

    • @alexisd8190
      @alexisd8190 Před 2 lety

      @@theextremeend5289 I can't recommend something with confidence as I wing it with my more troublesome dog so I can only say what I do. Personally I do make her sit anyways if I spot her trigger before she does (for my dog it is people, particularly males, walking behind or around and she feels they are watching her),and I wait until they have passed, if she refuses to look up to me for guidance I stay there until she does which can take a while. If i see an opportunity where she is less distracted I do say her name and direct her with a hand action or a treat up to my head. If she spots the trigger first then I stop and take the first opportunity that she will listen to make her sit and do the same as before which again can take a while. I could probably improve on this technique but it seems to work for my dog and she is improving. I'm not sure what to do for thinking she has to sit when pressure is applied, possibly try the changing direction technique he uses in the video so she gets used to the pressure meaning to keep her attention on you? do you tug her lead slightly when you do tell her to sit normally? if you do maybe she is confused with the signal? sorry for the long comment, it is so hard to condense it haha, maybe ask a local trainer for better tips than I can give it it doesn't work. sorry if I was no help
