  • This video is about teaching your dog the DOWN command. This can be done by shaping the behavior and rewarding. In this video I use food as a lure and reward and work through the basic position of DOWN and how it should look.
    Later I explain how the use of a toy can speed up the process. Also addressed is how to prevent a dog from being very pushy or mouthy for the treat!

    My Dobermann knows basic commands but does them when he sees fit, good videos, clear instructions and interesting content, will keep practicing, thanks Robert.

    I teach stand to my pet dogs for at least two reasons, grooming and vet visits. Also, it's one more item to make a well rounded dog.

    The best part of watching this video was my 5 month old puppies was listening and watching too! Laugh all you want people but he does this in class and when he does it I find he learns the commands better.

    My dobie is so elastic she bends forward on her toes to avoid lying down . We have sit, wait and stay to a T, indoors. OK on leash outdoors. Recall and Down elude us. Trying to bring more hand signals into play with sit and wait commands. We're having great fun but vaguely concerned that she's holding back for more play time. Thanks for the ideas

      You have to ask yourself why from their point of view. It may not come naturally due to their specific anatomy. Maybe they're getting less
      O2 from the shortened nose to the trachea and their large upper body mass. Maybe a different style is in order for some pups.

    I have a now two year old mastiff and he has zero aggression and his pinch collar is just jewelry for him now. But I know I need to get him over his fear. And the pinch collar is great he turned my pup from pulling me every where. Am I right to think he sees the pinch collar as something that would make him uncomfortable and he knows when it will happen. I need a lot of getting my self into shape but it is my dog comes before my pain. I know I just have to get him to see that noise he hears are no big deal. I am working around my disability and I don't want to force him to just listen and look...am I thinking right. I'm thinking of getting an ecollar because I want to get him off the leash safely!!! For all!! I wish I was your neighbor but I borrow a lot of sugar. I don't want to push him and end up messing him up. Love to you and yours!
