i have a poodle that is NOT treat oriented, nor toy. what do i do for training?
I am trying to use this training video for my 4 year old, rescued Brittany who was never leash trained. Before going out she will look at me. Once we’re out the door, she will not look at me. For the last 3 days, we have been out the door and had stood almost an hour waiting for her to look back at me. I will then take her back inside and start over. What am I doing wrong, or does it just take more time?
the main thing is consistency! You can’t just do this one day a week and the rest of the time, be sloppy. I have a four month old English setter who, in the last couple of weeks, thinks I need to become a windsock! No way…I have tried other things and she is just so hard headed, so I will try this this evening and see if it changes things a bit. I do want for her to be a dog I can be proud of, it will take a bit but I am patient!!
I have x3 dogs and it’s impossible to take one dog at a time without the other dogs knowing so by the time your trying to separate the dogs they are already hyped up and very difficult to settle to get to that point where your starting
Otherwise I can see how some of these elements would work for my most difficult
I would like another video with a young pointer in a neighborhood full of underbrush and squirrels.
but she’s a golden. goldens by breed and nature are one of the easiest to train because its in their nature to seek to please. can you repeat this technique with a dog who is stubborn and hyper by nature?
My neighbours have a dog that they dont really care for much and never quite trained and my doctor recently prescribed me some walks so i thought id just walk him so we could both benefit but hes pulling a LOT, im gona take some cat treats with me and try this today!
I love this form kind of training😍 no pain, no angry…only psitivity and consequence – thank you so much❤️
Thanks so much for your video. Really happy that you didn’t use prone collar
Love the way you got her to look at you so quickly before going outside.
🥰
1:46 right off the bat, standing with the door wide open it’s not going to work with the mosquitoes, flies, and 100° Heat! That’s just for starters!
They have to wait for you to pass then come behind
Great video! Thanks for breaking it down and explaining, very helpful!
Just implemented this and saw some immediate improvements. Im gonna keep working on this every time we go out. Thanks Carol!

Love this video and the fact you’re not using a herm sprenger collar.
Good video. With extreme pulling I use also the halti. In about 15 min I get the perfect walk
My dog is 4 months old and has bitten the leash since the day we brought her home. I have tried everything and watched so many videos and just can’t get her to stop jumping and biting every leash I have ever tried. Walks are a nightmare and stressful, oh my gosh.
We are about to begin the training and wanted to know your thoughts on using a "bungee no pull" leash that applies tension on it’s own in lieu of applying the light "bump bump but" technique with a regular leash when we feel tension on it
I have an 11 year old beagle who has never been trained or walked much before now… what a nightmare! Thank you…
A simple head collar solved the problem *immediately* with my dog Homer, probably a malinois-and-god-knows-what-else mix. He pulled like a sled dog when I first got him, but a Gentle Leader head collar put a stop to the behavior in just one walk. It was amazing.
What kind of doggy treats are perfect for rewarding that’s healthy?
Nothing I try works. He gets so distracted.
I have used Winifred Gibson Strickland’s "Expert Obedience Training for Dogs", and she advocates the use of a slip collar, which has worked for me, but it could be better, so I’ll check this out. Standard Poodles. One was like power steering, so easily trained, the other was capable of dragging me down an icy sidewalk on my stomach, slip collar or not.
I could never understand how anyone thinks they can teach a dog to heel or behave while on a harness, or where they get the idea that a harness is any kind of control. I have had Siberian Huskies. Harnesses for dogs are for pulling things, just as they are for horses.
Waiting for an Airedale puppy, and possibly an English Setter.
This dog does not look like she’s ready to explode out the door. Are you kidding me?
Thanks!
Carol is an expert I can count on to learn from. Please eliminate the annoying music in the background. It is distracting from the task at hand. Carol does not need the goofy music to catch our attention. Thanks, Carol, for your genuine love of dogs.
Is it enough for them to simply look back in my general direction or must they make definite eye contact?
My puppy pulls me to go back home. I have to carry him out and he just pulls to go back home. I don’t know what to do.
My golden has great listening skills inside just can tell he gets distracted easily outside, if I say his name it’s like he doesn’t even hear it outside
I’m working on this technique and it’s helping little by little
Takes alot of patience
I need an open space so things would be much easier.
I’ll be trying this today with my Tasmania devil Rottweiler Berdie.
It’s always amazing watching Carol work with a dog. It’s the timing of responses that when learning give dogs such great information and sets them up to succeed!
beautiful looking dog
I gave my puppy American stuffy mixed bull mastiff to a friend, now almost 2 years old. he never trains him or walks. He is staying with him again, i cant handling him. He hates kids and attacks 3 kids. He pulls and doesn’t listen, when walk he runs to try to fight with big dogs. I think he will be put down by the government government for these behaviours one day. I’m 36 old and African live in Australia. So I don’t know much about dogs. Originally had an English stuffy which I still have and is easy for me. Now 2 dogs again and I’m very sad. Thanks for this video. I will do my best and work hard to keep everyone safe and him
So would you do all these exercises in one outting? Or would you practice the door exercise for a few sessions, then introduce a bit of “walking” back and forth and so on?
My dog instantly flips around on me when I open the front door, even with the Martingale leash I don’t trust her because I live near a busy road.
It all starts by first putting on an appropriate leash on your dog. Those simple neck collar leashes are actually doing damage to their trachea, causing trachea deviation in many dogs as they age.
I have two pups (1 year and 10 months). Walking them together for some reason became impossible so I had to go back to basics and I’ve had to walk them alone and reinforce training and let me tell you, WOW. I did all steps with both separately and I can say, we didn’t walk far but the quality of our walks is something I haven’t enjoyed in months. THANK YOU!!
Love all the ways you show how we can play with our dogs and still incorporate learning..i had lost the way a bit with this 😊
This is excellent! Is there somewhere I cannot donate to your organization?
My dog is scared to go out, he’s 5years old
He previous owner was an elderly person
What should I do
Great training video! Thank you!🐾🐾💕
This is great to watch. Learning a lot on how to work with my 9mth collie! Thanks so much.
Shoutout to Carol for being an expert at teaching both dogs and people! Thank you for the lesson!
My 5 months old golden loves snow! And walk here in Canada means to get attention from snow! And he loves bight if the leash
Love this method! The calmness is a much better way to work with each other. Zen
I am so happy to finally find a video that doesn’t tell me to slap a prong on my dog. All of the videos I have watched have told me just to put a prong on my dog and it will fix everything
My 5 month old corgi keeps hurting my back with his sudden dives on the trails.
