Training if you could care less about Your dog’s training then by all means Let anyone pet them number one reason For me You are not allowed to pet my dog To the dog That interaction is valuable they want It it benefits them Would you not want a massage if someone Offered hey come give me a massage it’s Beneficial to the dog it’s a reward it’s Positive reinforcement Reinforcement means the dog’s more Likely to repeat it Do not let people pet your dog Here’s why You go out in public Someone walks up to you hey can I pet Your dog oh sure you can pet the dog oh Fluffy doggy oh I love dogs you’re so Cute fluffy make me happy okay see you Later Now your dog just learned that when You’re out and about at any very bad for Dog training I harp on it over and over Again you need to be the most valuable Thing to your dog Period you need to be the most valuable You own the dog literally legally you Own the dog That means You are responsible for them and their Behavior you want your dog to know that Hey I buy your food see this roof over
Your head it’s my roof you want the dog To know that but if value comes at any Moment Anywhere from anyone your value as an Owner Handler and trainer Tanks You’re no longer the most valuable thing To your dog oh yeah you pet me at home All the time oh look at this new person Oh my gosh they’re gonna pet me Very bad for training we immediately Lose focus we immediately lose Engagement We convey to the dog that random Strangers can and will reward you at any Time all of those things put together Your dog’s mind is off of you how many People can relate You take your dog out somewhere let’s Say you take them to the hardware store A building where there’s going to be a Bunch of people You’re walking your dog around you Pass another person and how many people Can relate if you were to drop your Leash And sneak away from your dog would your Dog even notice they’d go right up to That person and they’d go pay me pay me Terrible for training you’re the only Person that Pets the dog you’re the one That holds all the value do you guys Know why you’re not allowed to pet Service dogs
Because if you do they immediately clock Out from their job and focus on you what If their Handler starts to have a Seizure but they’re getting a belly rub From you they can’t do their job now While you may not have a service dog you Want your dog to work for you work means The dog’s job is to stay right on your Left side on a loose leash aware of what You’re doing at all times that’s the Dog’s job so if random strangers come up And grope your dog it’s gonna take them Out of that mindset they’re gonna clock Out and you could lose them By just dropping the leash and walking Away that’s one reason because you need To be the most valuable thing to your Dog at all times Over socialization is the biggest Problem that I see whether the dog’s Reactive on leash or whether they just Want to get to a person or another dog Over socialization is a massive problem Every breeder and vet will tell you Gotta you dogs got to meet people dogs Got to meet dogs dogs got to socialize Dog’s gotta socialize dog’s got While there is some truth to that There’s a little bit of Truth to that But that by no means Means go out and let everyone touch your Dog let him meet every dog they see Meeting another dog when you’re out Walking is the worst possible thing you
Could do for your training for the same Reasons now strange dogs that are out And about hold exponentially more value Than you do that dog doesn’t buy their Food that dog doesn’t put a roof over Their head but they like that dog that They don’t even know better than you It’s over socialization now here’s the Caveat When you get a brand new puppy It is obviously beneficial To have them meet more people than just You Obviously we don’t want our dogs to be Weirded out or scared of people But notice I put you can’t pet my dog Poppies and dogs are different when I Have an eight week old A 10 week old Maybe even a 12 week old The people closest to you in your circle Your family your friends people that may Be involved in the dog’s life Of course we can facilitate a situation Where they can meet and interact with Another person that is of course healthy But here’s how you do it You have an eight-week-old puppy just Got him from the breeder or her bring Him home Go out the front door walk around the Front yard up and down the street You come across your neighbors And they go oh my gosh look at that
Puppy it’s so cute I just want to kiss His face This is what you need to do you need to Go stand Right next to those people just like you Would having a conversation they need to Ignore the puppy ignore him but he’s Cute Ignore him Two minutes goes by He’s jumping on him he’s biting their Leg two minutes goes by now your puppy Has lost interest in interacting with Those people he jumps he jumps he jumps We ignore and then the puppy goes okay No value there And then they start sniffing the ground Maybe they try to leave at that point if You want those people to pet the puppy Then they can pet him but if puppy walks Up he’s pulling he’s all excited right When he gets to him oh he gets all that Praise that’s gonna absolutely destroy Any obedience training that you want to Install in the near future A puppy must be neutral first That’s the ticket whether it’s a dog Whether it’s another person they must be Neutral first so they don’t see initial Value there it is here comes the Paycheck So you can have a meat maybe a handful Of people within the first few weeks or Month that you own them but after you
Establish my puppy social my puppy has No problem meeting people all right cut It off trust me it’s there it’ll be There anytime in the future the dog Wants to meet it’s gonna be there but You need to cut that I want to see hey Is my puppy weirded out about meeting This person oh no treats them the same As me awesome confident 30 seconds done Good rinse and repeat one or two times Over the next couple weeks okay good We’re social money in the bank let’s Move on stop When you’re out and about Look at a dog and just enjoy the dog From a distance oh wow look at that dog Beautiful oh wow he’s really well Trained oh wow that dog has no training Don’t you go up to that dog don’t you Try to pet that dog get your own dog Andy can I pet your dog you can pet your Own dog if I’m not with my kid you want To come touch my kid too get out of here Pet your own dog my dog’s in training my Dog is being trained to work for me AKA Only focus on me you can’t pet my dog It’s bad for their training Let’s get into some questions what do we Got here Hey what’s up what’s up Sam what’s up George I’m looking for a good German Shepherd but have no connections where To start guys here’s the things here’s The thing with breeders I never
Recommend breeders it’s just uh I don’t recommend breeders but George What you want to look for depending on If you want a German Shepherd you Obviously want a working dog so I’m Gonna Contact breeders and get the rundown on The dog’s parents I don’t tell me the Parents are friendly don’t tell me the Parents have championed Bloodlines That’s all Godly good to me I wanted to know what specifically Those parents have done what specific Temperament tests they’ve done I want to See what their parents have done I want To see what temperament tests their Parents have done with German Shepherds You’re looking for igp stuff you’re Looking for bh’s you’re looking for Levels one two three this means the dog Has been formally trained and proven Themselves under a strict set of testing Champion Bloodlines with a champion of What Champion of what He’s friendly oh he’s never met someone He doesn’t like I want to see what the Dogs actually done on paper so that’s a Good place to start What’s up Allie happy to finally make One of the lives what’s up from the UK There’s Rhett let’s go hi from Denmark Let’s go She bites arrive today love it the she
Bites shirts that’s a he bites got the She bites too both my dogs Hey from South Carolina What’s up Signed up on patreon do it Linda you’re A smart lady Hey Andy hey hey he bites she bites they Might I need a don’t be a baby shirt that Would be a great shirt don’t be a baby How do I stop my Malinois puppy from Biting me uh you don’t be a baby that’s How BH competition Next week Jordan let’s go baby BH is a great temperament test entry Level of igp Okay here’s Linda I see this all the Time hyper labs and goldens that flip Out when they see people super friendly But out of control because of the Incorrect socialization all dogs are way Over socialized they’re way way if you Didn’t have them on a leash and collar Your dog’s just gone trying to mingle With every stranger that they see How do you socialize the dog with people If they can’t pet the dog great question Hugh I actually addressed that in the Beginning of this there is A window in the dog’s age there’s a Correct time and a correct place to have That interaction but if you’re just
Moseying about and someone hey can I pet The dog we don’t know them we’re not Going to have time to train them we Don’t have several minutes to stand There and accomplish what we need to Before they make contact so no you can’t But there’s a window in time in that Puppy’s early puppyhood where there’s a Correct way to do it Good luck Jordan yep good luck there’s My boy Aaron what’s up Aaron Biggest pet peeve I can’t stand people Thinking they are entitled to pet Someone else’s dog get out of here Agreed get your own dog you can sit at Home all day I love you fluffy dog Touching fluffy makes me happy do it to Your own dog What’s the fix the fix is don’t touch my Dog Drive by pets are the worst Yeah drive that means drive by pets that Means someone oh can I put your dog oh Look I love you good boy all right see You later You’re like what what just happened That’s a good word for it I think people Should be thinking Neutralization not socialization most of The time that’s a great Point Aaron we Need our dogs to be neutral just as much If not more than we need them to be Social See what do we got here
First it felt rude to tell people no but Now it’s easy because it’s quite clear He’s under command people don’t even ask Anymore great Point Ashley when you have A really well-trained dog if I take Jasper or Freddie out in public the way They’re behaving and working for me most Of the time people go oh look that dog’s Trained don’t touch it kids they just Know and of course I slap on a do not Pet vest on my boys Just in case Yeah at first it feels rude but there’s A way to do it I instruct all my clients This way Oh look little Fluffy’s home from Training I’m the neighbor little Fluffy’s home can I Pat him and now I’m The Handler Sorry we’re in training but thank you For asking That’s it that’s all you need and if They don’t respect that and they keep Pushing then you can be rude to them Foreign Ly I was able to watch the live what’s Up Gustavo question I got an answer got A German Shepherd at four months old Her first four months of Life were Raised in a backyard with the litter of Other dogs definitely not neutral to People or other dogs how to make her Neutral very simple answer Victor this Is how you make the dog neutral nobody
Or no dog ever comes into contact with That dog just you so you’re standing There at the park there’s people walking Dogs on leashes there’s people running Around your dog’s super interested in All of them but Never gets reinforced by any of them you Do that time and time and time and time Again all of those things will lose Their value because it’s not reinforced It’s that simple What’s up Andy you’re my first ever live Chat Lauren’s going awesome that sounds Good you can never do too much luring I wish everyone acted like this you’re Telling me Need to have these later in the Afternoon we’ll catch it back to Training I hear you it’ll be on replay don’t Worry Let’s see here See Jordan says his dog uh Bears out is Good on the switch or when he’s thinking I’m gonna pop out another toy If not he’s super sticky Any tips Yeah Jordan the video that I did on YouTube and the unedited ones on patreon Teaching that one German Shepherd how to Out using only one toy and their Training collar that’s the ticket right There I would imagine your boy bear is Ready to have a little bit of negative
Reinforcement Layered into that out training reference That video for sure If the Dutch Shepherd is a Malinois with Stripes why don’t we see much of them Competing in French ring also what are The reasons why you prefer the Malinois Over the dutchies That’s a good question Um Here’s here’s my answer to this and I do See Dutch Shepherds compete in ring sport But there’s definitely more Malinois Malinois Are designed for the ring sport they can Do igp they can do other stuff Malinoiser just designed for ring sport Um I just it’s just my personal Preference the the Belgian Malinois just A classic classic dog it’s it’s just my Preference you know chocolate or vanilla Which one do you like it’s it’s really Just a preference thing but Malinois I Mean you got to remember they’re Designed for ring sport hello from Poland what’s up Let’s see here you said no hunting I Have been the faster he finds and brings Back the faster we play he gets good Exercise and uses his brain and knows Can you elaborate on your position Thanks for all your videos so what Mitchell’s talking about here
With the hunting thing I am not a fan of hiding things for your Dog to find If you have a dog who’s going to be a Detection dog they’re going to be a Search and rescue dog it’s a little bit Different And I understand there can be owners and Dogs that can be a little bit of an Exception to this rule but it still Doesn’t really change the rule is it bad To do Depending no I wouldn’t say it’s bad but Here’s why I don’t like the dog going Out and finding his toy is because It takes all the value away from you It’s the opposite of playing with you The dog’s big reward their big goal Is far and away from you That’s what I don’t like about it and I Understand if you have a dog that’s Amazing at playing with you loves Charging to you with the toy and plays Plays plays okay okay you may have Something there but for the most part I’m generalizing for the average owner That oh good work for their brain they Go out and find stuff it’s not good work For their brain it has nothing to do With you and then you’re conditioning The dog to I put my nose down I wander Away from the owner and I get paid I put My nose down I wander far away from the Owner and I get paid
So from an obedient standpoint from a Play standpoint if you’re building those Two things that can be detrimental Because your dog’s thinking okay when Can I get away from you and just go Search around And do my own thing that’s why I don’t Really like the the hunting very much Okay a lot of questions I lost my place See what we got Okay now I’m super lost in the questions Give me a second give me a second Here we go Can you troubleshoot for a neutral dog Luke I don’t know what that means Elaborate can I troubleshoot what for a Neutral dog I don’t get it With a Belgian Malinois puppy Be good if both of the parents are Normal and don’t do any Dog Sports well Hugh it depends what your definition of Good is could they make a good companion A good buddy for you sure I’m sure they Could but I would never buy a Belgian Malinois just to be my buddy I would get another breed of dog for That I want a Belgian Malinois because I Want to compete with the dog I want to Go to the top with the dog so if I Haven’t seen that that’s proven in their Genetics I’m I’m not interested but the Dog could be fine depending on your Standard but if your standard is to Really work the dog
In a program Probably not great Your your chances of getting one that Can work are a lot lower than if the Parents did work but Just as a buddy or companion I’m sure it Would be fine But again it kind of goes against what The the breed is for All right what do we got here Oh they’re from India what’s up my Malinois is obedient but seems to be Difficult to control when my daughter is Around She sometimes nibbles on my child’s Clothes how to correct that here’s the Thing This is a classic Belgian Malinois this Is why everyone will say Malinois don’t Make good pets Malinois don’t make easy Pets don’t have a Malinois or a pet if You had a golden retriever a Labrador Retriever a Spaniel A King Charles cavalier etc Etc you probably would never even run Into that issue because Malinois are Biting machines out of the box as soon As they figure out how their mouth works At a few weeks old they’re using it and They’re using it for a while so I would Say two parts to that the first part do We need the Malinois to be in that Situation with the kid running around we Don’t need that it’d be nice
We don’t need that the dog needs to be Neutral around the child The dog cannot physically be able to get To the child we need to build engagement And control before putting the dog in That situation in a perfect world that Situation never even transpires because We’ve set the dog up for Success we Don’t even put him around the kid until We have nice control and focus and then We ease our way in so how to correct That you don’t correct it you go back to Step number one and create a neutral dog However long that takes I’ve had a parent not paying attention To their five-year-old daughter and she Came up behind my dog And hugged him around the neck from Behind she’s lucky it was my dog bad Parent Definitely not ideal definitely keep Your kiddos close by I have a Rottweiler It is very few who wants to pet an adult Roddy True how to introduce our doberman to Our new baby Now Jimbo you might not like my answer But I’m going to be dead honest I tell All my clients this I do this myself you Don’t introduce the dog to the baby you Don’t there’s zero reason that dog needs To come into contact with a baby there’s Zero reason that dog needs a place
Command That dog needs training to be in the Same room as the baby and that’s it There is never a reason With a new baby a dog Needs to be this far away from him the Dog will never need to touch them or Lick them the dog will never need to be Able to sniff them up you don’t need it But I want it You don’t need it all you’re gonna do Is create The potential for many many issues your Dog needs to be neutral your dog needs To be able to be in the same room day After day month after month with the Baby in it and no that’s not my business That’s not something for me to explore And investigate Neutral that’s how you do it See let’s see here What would you tell people who just Reach out for your dog without asking I’d get my hand ready and I’d bet just Kidding don’t assault people Hold on lost my place what would I do For someone that just reaches out and Touches my dog I would say oh hey excuse Me no no please don’t pat in training no Sorry yeah no no don’t pat he’s in Training please don’t pat That’s what I would do No no no he’s in training don’t pat Oh yeah
Socialization is Inner species communication I don’t know what that means I guess That would depend on your definition of Socialization right If you walk into a bar or a restaurant You’re a perfectly social person do you Want to come into contact with every Single person at the bar of the Restaurant do you want to give a hug to Every single person at the restaurant You want to sit down with every person You want to hold hands with everyone So definitions of socialization are Different I could go to a restaurant Sit down with my family enjoy a nice Meal it’s a social atmosphere it’s a Social experience it doesn’t mean I have To come into direct contact with every Single person there for it to be Considered a social activity so I guess It just depends on your definition but That’s mine I have had to drill into every female I Am with not to not stop and pet people’s Dogs I’ve had dogs I didn’t really let Around very many people and they would Eat a stranger People like to pet dogs I’m not one of Them hey Andy I have a Malinois herder Mix your tips and tricks have helped us A lot best regards from Germany thank You very much I like to hear it not a Malinois owner so please be nice
Since you want a melon water bite how do You handle them when they’re puppies and Just bite everyone and everything You have to be a master manipulator of Dogs and puppies you have to have tons And tons of quality experience The best trainers that I know there’s Never been a time where they go in this Dog keeps biting me When you know the dog when you know how To train the dog start to finish and You’ve done it time and time again You’d be surprised those problems don’t Really manifest themselves within the Last two years Two and a half years we’ve had probably Five Malinois puppies here of course we Didn’t keep them all we’ve had probably Five I’ve never had an issue With the biting because of their Lifestyle because of the interactions That we’ve had and the schedules that They’ve been on it’s management At the end of the day Foreign This is me being nice If you get a Malinois puppy and you go Oh my God they’re biting so much how do I stop the biting this is how you stop The biting you put the puppy in the car You take the puppy back to the breeder And you go I’ve gotten a dog that I Don’t know how to handle here you go I’m Gonna go get a lab that’s me being nice
How do you make your dog only listen to Your commands and not to a stranger I’ve never had a stranger attempt to Give my dog commands I’ve never seen That Um Really a non-issue for me Andy what are your thoughts on the best Ways to start distance commands actually The best way with that is a place bed or Some sort of a position box because if You’re doing commands at a distance most Dogs are gonna naturally want to Gravitate towards you Which defeats the purpose of the Exercise so you have them on their climb You’re three feet away they’re standing Up you say sit Sit down And you gradually move back from there Same thing with the position box so that Structure that rigid barrier Prevents them from running towards you What’s up what’s up patreon crew let’s Go pay your boy for even more amazing Content thank you very much Once I saw the video I used the prong in One tug he won’t pull back but he’ll Just chew until I give him negative Reinforcement rinse and repeat Jordan That could take a month rinse and repeat You the more you do this the more you Will Form your own technique and your bond

Luring soft treat is ideal so they can Nibble out of the hand And if you can’t get your absolute Perfect sit No commands no leash pressure just using That lore don’t move on until you have That Mike this is going to be muscle Memory from the dog and to get that Muscle memory you need a thousand Quality repetitions when you get in your Car and start driving it’s all muscle Memory you don’t have to think wait what Pedal do I push to put it in gear okay This one okay now what pedal do I press To make it go no you jump in your car And you go because you’ve done it a Million times it’s muscle memory same Thing for your dog What’s up Andy from Alaska yo my dog’s a Lab mix and looks sweet but he naturally Hates meeting new people it was really Easy to teach him to be neutral but People love to try to pet him I tell Them no I understand now just to Just to nitpick a little bit I don’t Believe that dogs hate I stay away from Using the word hate with a dog the way I Would phrase it is that Potentially meeting a new person causes My dog stress Potentially meeting a new person causes My dog anxiety my dog becomes fearful When potentially meeting a new person I

Is how do I stop my dog from this how do I stop my dog from doing that how do I Stop this how do I I know what you’re Getting it I know what you’re getting at And it’s all good I’m not mad at you I Know what you’re getting at You need to completely Scrap walks shelf it don’t take your dog On a walk You need to learn about dog training It’s going to take hundreds of hours Over months and years this is like Basically you’ve never used a tool or Built anything in your life and you have To learn woodworking how long is that Going to take well it’s going to take Years and learning how to properly train A dog is extremely similar You need to scrap all situations that Will facilitate behaviors you don’t want You need to build perfect engagement you Need to build a perfect heel and then You need to incrementally introduce one Tiny distraction at a time until you Reach the peak Where you can take the dog out and Execute a heel how do you stop pulling You teach the dog how to heal Why does a dog listen to commands at Home but not outside Your dog listens to commands inside but Not outside because the dog has not Generalized the command meaning they Only know it in one context your dog
Sits every time at home inside but when You take it out and about it doesn’t sit The same way it does at home that’s Because they don’t actually know sit They know it in a certain context but They don’t actually know sit so the dog Does that because the behavior is not Generalized Foreign Had an old guy raise his voice at me in The middle of laws don’t pet this dog When I told him no it’s just women who Think They can pet every dot well I don’t know About that Seems a little sexist Going out and about with your dog who’s In training is really a beast I mean you Have to be you never know what weirdo is Going to run up and touch them you never Know what kid is not going to be being Watched by their parent you never know What wacko is going to have a little Fluffy on a 20-foot flexi leash not even Paying attention if you’re interested in Training taking your dog out and about Is no duck walk That’s for sure Can a four-year-old male start doing French ring yeah they could They could This might be a weird question I like it Already Do Jasper and Freddie mark their
Territory a lot I’m training a couple of Dogs That are nuts about marking every single Vertical thing in Bush they see yeah Freddy and Jasper be doing that But they’re always on my property so They’re I mean they’re not crazy about It but yeah they do Okay I don’t know if I get this question How can see the dog area when it looks Up to you all the time oh I know what You mean how can a dog see what’s going If they’re looking up at you all the Time an attention heel is good for igp Competition it’s required an attention Heel looks real pretty If you want to feel good and flex on Social media a bit but I don’t train the Attention here with my dog for ring for A lot of reasons one of them my dog Needs To see the jumps to see the decoy to see The retrieve item to see the end of the Field for the send out I do want my dog To look around so I don’t personally Train an attention heel I’m actually using those bushes as Primary Reinforcers and it’s kind of working What do you think Using those bushes primary reinforcers Um I don’t really follow my brother What about when kids ask to pet your dog
This is what you do when kids ask you Say oh Thank you for asking but I’m sorry he’s In training and I’m the only one that Can pet him but thank you for asking That’s what you say Later man back to training thanks for The help see you Jordan Okay sometimes I like to glance over the Questions before I read them out loud You know what I’m saying The heel command takes a lot if you want The dog to stop pulling on leash the Best way is to know how to use a prong Collar correctly not everyone has the Time to learn teach the dog how to heal So Hugh I’d completely disagree with you The prong collar is irrelevant to Training heel it’s absolutely irrelevant I trained my dog to have an extremely Reliable and conflict-free heal never Using a prong collar I like the prong I Layer it into my training I do use it But if I never could use a prong again It wouldn’t be a problem for my heel Training that’s actually a very common Mistake people make associating the Prong with healing Training a dog to heal properly has Nothing to do with a prawn teaching a Dog to heal properly has nothing to do With an e-collar Prong collars and e-collars Should not be in the category of
Teaching you don’t teach anything with a Prong you don’t teach anything with an E-collar those are to be layered in Properly in the future to further proof And reinforce behaviors but teaching With a prong is definitely the wrong way To go Foreign Focus here will be the death of me dog Training’s hard indeed That’s a beast Linda Andy how much obedience should I put on My six month old male who I want to put Into personal protection down the line I Don’t want to kill his drive with too Much so you’re You’re lumping together control and Pressure They’re not one in the same you can Train your dog all day every day And only enhance their drive if you’re Putting on if you’re putting pressure in Prongs and e-collars yeah you could Destroy the dog’s drive but lots of Control It’s a myth that It’s going to bring the drive down total Myth Andy you need to make a he and she bites Bandana that’s a great idea I should My 18 month old male is 35 Dolby and Between a great trainer who competes at IPO and your patreon and a lot of time And effort from me we now have an
Absolutely awesome fulfilled dog thank You you nailed it Ally you’re putting in The work You’re finding the credible Professionals You’re putting in the time and energy You’re making the investment and now You’re seeing a return on the investment Bingo How quickly could some inexperienced but Athletic person get ready for a French Ring decoy certification would a few Days seminar be enough No way Benjamin how quickly could an Inexperienced but athletic person get Ready for a French ring decoy Certification minimum two years minimum Two years I mean a couple of days You’re probably going to be at about the Same point you were to start with no This takes years to do great question Do you teach your dog to pull on a flat Collar for ring if so what do you use When you go out I like the harness I I Need my dog to be able to pull first French ring training I like a harness For that a flat collar can be used as Well when I take him out and about I use A slip lead and I Implement heel if I’m Not going to make him heal flat collar Andy what’s the best age to start bite Work can I still train with prey with a Six month puppy Yeah you want to stay away from bite
Work during teething so you can do some Bite work you know eight to 16 weeks Shelf it for several months revisit it Nine to twelve months How do I stop taking things from the Bottom I’m sorry I don’t know what you Mean I have a skittish male mix she’s 10 Months now how do I boost her confidence With dogs her size teach her to be Neutral and teach her the dogs that come Around her will be neutral as well If the dog she’s around aren’t neutral That’s going to continue to be a Detriment to her so I’m telling you guys What The dogs that your dog interacts with or Is around are everything You need specific dogs to be around that Dog and just project that neutral calm Presence Foreign Focus healing and loose leash walking at The same time Would this confuse a young dog that’s Still learning to heal Mike you can do It at the same time if they’re on Different sides attention on the left Relaxed heel on the right then you can Intermingle them but for the most part No I’ll pull the dog out I’ll do a Focused healing session and then I’ll Put the dog away I’ll pull the dog out maybe do some Loose leash casual stuff and I’ll put
The dog away so I separate them until The dog’s really getting it What do you do when people come and let Their dog sniff your dog without ever Asking Gustavo that never happens to me My brother that never never happens to Me because I am watching everybody like A hawk and if I have a dog out in public I know who’s around me I know who’s Behind me I know how far away they are And if I see someone starting to come up To me or get close with a dog We out of there baby How many times a day are you pulling the Dog out for training when you’re really Working it Three to six times depending on the Length of the session three to six times Six ten minute sessions three 20-minute Sessions Four 20-minute session something like That If you strive for Focus heal do you only Ever have a focused heel [Music] Maybe you definitely need your dog to Have both you need your dog to have a Nice relaxed with me and then you want Your nice attention you want to train Both for sure if you only ever do Focused heel and that’s how they only Know how to walk then yeah maybe Maybe you won’t have the the with me Train both
Many good dog trainers teach the dog to Loosely walk with a prong collar why Isn’t that good it takes like 15 minutes To learn the dog from stop pulling Um now Hugh here’s where we’re gonna Disagree I don’t believe that good dog trainers Teach the dog to Loosely walk with a Prong I don’t think that that’s good dog Training and I don’t think that that’s Good it only takes 15 minutes to learn The dog to stop pulling It doesn’t though It doesn’t Because take the collar off and they’re Back to pulling so did they ever really Learn not to pull no they didn’t nothing Good in life comes in 15 minutes nothing You don’t learn to drive a car in 15 Minutes you don’t learn to become a Master of a craft in 15 minutes you you Don’t get a six pack abs in 15 minutes Anything worthwhile is hard takes a long Time and not everyone can do it so I Would respectfully disagree that Somebody taking 15 minutes to get a dog To stop pulling out a prong is a good Dog trainer I would completely disagree But There is nothing I just gave a butt for Nothing that’s my opinion Should I always bring my dog let me let Me let me spend this on you heel
Did the dog learn to stop pulling if the Prong comes off So now the dog isn’t trained The dog learns if I pull hard on this It’s uncomfortable So I won’t pull as hard and the moment That prong comes off you you’re screwed So now the dog respects an inanimate Object and not your command If you tell a dog heel on a flat collar And they pull they don’t know heel So Hugh if you say oh a great trainer Taught a dog in 15 minutes to stop Pulling and heal on the leash Put on a slip lead say heal and start Walking and if they don’t heal that Trainer has not trained them to do Anything Foreign Should I always bring my dog to the same Place for the first few months of Training and then work our way up to say Like a park or something You know it just all depends on the dog I would mix it up for sure you can go Same places you can go different places I’d mix it up but I wouldn’t do it to Death either I wanted to say that he’s always upside Down takes anything from below okay I Don’t really get that question I’m sorry What is something that people never talk About that someone should know about Owning raising and training a Malinois
Before doing salt What is something that people never talk About Malinois are genetically designed to Bite so if you are not a master of Manipulating a Malinois bite you’re Going to have major problems with your Dog What if you only use the prong collar When going out Then you don’t have real training When I compete you can’t use a prong Collar you can’t use a knee collar you Can’t tell the dog no you can’t reward The dog you can’t correct the dog The judge and the program want to see if The dogs actually trained So Hugh my opinion on that but you won’t But I always use a prong so I don’t have To worry about it okay that’s totally Fine but the dog’s not trained the dog’s Not trying to walk the dog doesn’t Understand leash manners he doesn’t know What heel is Um it’s really no different than a Gentle Leader at that point you can Totally do that and live a happy life With your dog and be satisfied but for Me As a competitor and a dog trainer I Would look at that dog and go that dog Knows nothing They just don’t pull as hard when metal Spikes are on their throat but that dog
Doesn’t know any training Hey Andy any tips for helping my One-year-old mix rescue not to be afraid Of large trash bins And signages staked in the grass that Startle him how can I help him be brave You want to create monster food drive And you want to only feed your dog 20 Feet away from those objects for a month And then 15 then 10 feet then 5 feet Then right next to it that’s how you do It My melon was super high energy Even compared to other Malinois Should I exercise them before dog Training classes to get out the energy Nope you should never do that you should Never think I need to get out their Energy Um do they have more energy are they More anxious are they more stressed are They more driven Um no absolutely not you need to train Who the dog is and not rely on Physically exhausting them How do you become a master for training The Belgian Malinois that is the Question right how do you become a Master woodworker You know what I mean How do you become a master roofer a Master welder A master driver Master basketball player You have to surround yourself with
Masters If you’re on multiple dogs how much do You let your new pup play with the pack Personally I don’t but that’s just me I’m not big on the big group of dogs and Pack and and things like that I like to Establish my relationship with them one On one Generally train the dog to hit with Positive reinforcement training what if He sees a deer and starts running after It Hugh it’s a great question Hugh I Know you would love my content I can Gather that you haven’t seen much of it But if you if you are interested and Take some time all my free videos here On this channel I really break down So many components of dog training step By step You’re talking like French ring training Right not just feeding them meal during Basic training Um I don’t know what you mean by that Karen what do you mean my dog favors His right leg sometimes Club members looked and they don’t see Anything Yeah if he’s favoring a leg Unfortunately you have to put that dog On crate rest for like a month or two It’s unfortunate but definitely be Concerned yes even the slightest little Thing there’s probably a problem Big Time crate rest
