    When I firmly tell my 3 1/2 mo old Blue Heeler "Don't Bite Me!" she pauses, looks at me, snarls her lip, and begins to bark and jump all around me... but does not bite me!
    She understands what I want and obeys... but with great protest.

    With Sparky, my Red Heeler, I used a combo. I always had a toy, or if he grabbed my hand or arm, I'd whimper......i didn't think it would work, but it did! He would put his tongue between his teeth and my hand!!!! So smart! As he is older, I say "leave it'" and that works too. At 6 mos he quit biting. 95% !

    If I remember right, when our ACD got to an age where she was pushing boundaries by biting/heeling, a strong negative marker (almost growly), tied with a timeout room not used for anything else, worked. MF was a demon for a bit though. Teaching bite inhibition separately was just as important.

    Your videos are helpful. I gotta blue heeler that's about 9 months now. He's a great dog loyal and always at my side. Knows a ton of tricks like sit, lay down, roll over, bark on command , go to the kennel and he was easy to house train. The 1 thing we have had some trouble with is his nipping. Sometimes it's not even hard hea just playing I think but your videos are helpful. Been watching since we got him. If we get Pancho to stop biting then I can say we really have no trouble at all . This breeds not for everyone but if you put the work in its definitely worth it in the end.

    • @diydogguy
      @diydogguy  Před rokem +2

      Some dogs grow out of nipping, some need more training. Redirecting with toys or even food sometimes..trick them into sitting and doing a trick when they start to nip. Other options are ignoring, sometimes they need a firm correction though to get the idea.

  • @northernwindcreations
    @northernwindcreations Před měsícem

    How do you recommend dealing with dogs nipping other animals? My 1.5 yr old Aussie started nipping our horses legs and became super reactive to other dogs / nipping them. This started at 8months old. There are very few dogs he hasn’t nipped at (cattle dogs, other aussies). He used to be great with all dogs and we would go play at the dog park all the time. Then my roommate had a reactive dog stay with us and things seemed to change after that. He loved our friends dog but now acts like he is going to go crazy and attack him. I just bought a basket muzzle today. I don’t want to use it, but I honestly am scared to take him anywhere in public or on hikes where we will run into other dogs. I can’t afford to pay a trainer to work with him. Do you know any alternative options other than a muzzle?

  • @yippeethreeeight
    @yippeethreeeight Před rokem +2

    Did you do any desensitizing for loud sounds? I've read that herding dogs are particularly sensitive to that. Our experience has been about 50/50 on ACDs scared to death of thunder and fireworks, vs not.

We came to visit family, saw my doc while here, diagnosed with breast cancer. We're staying with my mom, who contradicts everything I try to teach or reinforce. Bubba has now become a precision nipper, and quite the con man. I'm going to be in chemo soon, then surgery. I can't make him stop jumping on me. I don't know what to do about it. Does anyone have any suggestions????

    Two questions: 1. When having a leash should it be attached to a collar or harness for better results? 2. Typically age this phase stops? Our heeler is 4 months

    • @diydogguy
      @diydogguy  Před rokem +5

      The only reason a harness should be used in my opinion is if you want your dog to pull something or strapping them in the the back of the truck. Other than that, useless and no control.
      As for age, 4 months you are probably in the thick of this stage. Depends on how fast you can teach your dog the desired behavior. Some people can do it in few days. Others it takes a few months. Stick with it!

    We adopted our ACD mix (46% heeler) when he was 4 months old. This is our first time owning anything remotely like him. Geddy 2 now, is super smart and will pick up tricks quickly and obedience when he wants. He recently was on prednisone for some anal gland issues. His aggressive herding seemed to dissipate while he was on the meds. Now that he is off of them, the aggression is back. The moment we turn out back on him, that’s when he goes for our legs. Any suggestions?

      These dogs are much more anxious than a breed like a lab. My first recommendation is more exercise - a tired dog won't be as anxious and whining at your feet. Second is teaching "Place." This breed needs help settling down sometimes. I have another video on that.

    I own a rescue red heeler, about 2 yrs old. Just adopted him 3 months ago. He has a nasty habit of nipping smaller dogs when we meet on the hiking trail. How to discourage? Also he can be very protective of me, seems to “guard” me. If my other dog approaches (a golden) he may nip at her to “protect “ me. How to correct Jack? TY, Mark.

    • @diydogguy
      @diydogguy  Před rokem +4

      Hey Mark. Cowboy guards me too, they are a protective breed. Sometimes too much so. Need to make sure they understand that you don't need protecting from other pack members as you are the alpha and nipping your golden is NOT allowed. In regards to nipping passing dogs, two methods - one, a correction from a leash or e collar ( i only recommend using an e collar if you put the time into learning how to properly use one ) to make sure he knows its not allowed. Two, sit somewhere busy were a lot of dogs pass and every time one is about to whip out a treat and distract him. Have him in a focused command ( sit or down etc ) before he even realizes the dog is coming and keep his focus with the treat ( something really tasty like a hot dog ). you want them controlled before they see the dog. With reps this will help simply by desensitization. Hopefully this helps!
