This is from Beans second session doing recalls.
This session was all verbal recall with no stim or help from the leash.
Look at his head snap and instant recall even when there are people cutting stuff and jack hammering.
This wasnβt taught with food.
Many people think and teach to always start with food and positive reinforcement and then add aversives later to βcorrectβ the dog for blowing you off.
There is a much better way, especially for something as important as recall.
I have video of every dog that goes thru my program getting a solid recall in DAYS.
Some of these dogs are reactive, some are very aggressive.
If you do things right, this stuff doesnβt take months or years.
I will have many more videos of beans recalling off things.
If you need help with recall reach out and book a Free evaluation session to get your dog started on a better path to freedom.

After 4 weeks Loki finally played chase and catch at the park!
He would play at home for around a minute but he would NEVER play out in public.
I tried many times, but he just preferred to people watch and sniff.
Itβs important to pay attention to the dog and pick up on little hints they give us.
Today I noticed he was feeling playful so I broke out the Little green ball and he was all in!
Making full throws and he was running to get it and bring it back.
Notice how his tail is high and how happy he is.
Itβs so good for dogs to run and play and have purpose.
Some dogs play naturally, others take some work and skill to bring it out.
Loki has become somebody.

This is Beans. He is reactive to most things.
The owner said this is about a 7/10 for his level of reactivity.
He is coming from Arizona to start training with me next week.
Stay tuned for updates.

βWhat will my dog do when they are with you?β
Out at Red Rock hiking with Loki and Ace.
When Loki came he was scared of everything and would bark at people and dogs if he felt uncomfortable.
I find out what dogs like and then I cater the training specifically to them and we do it in the real world.
Having the control allows us to enjoy freedom with our dogs and bring out their best self.
Is your pup ready for adventure?

Is your dog reactive?
Do they bark, lunge, show aggression when they see other dogs or people?
Have you tried to fix it on your own or even worked with someone and had little to zero success?
The truth is reactivity can be a complex problem and you have to get to the root of the problem.
There is so much information out there about reactivity and βtechniquesβ you can try.
The problem is most of them are a bad idea. They are ineffective at best and can actually make things worse.
Every dog is an individual and they must be trained as such.
There is so much work that must be done before we actually address the reactivity.
To do this right it wont be a few private sessions.
This can take weeks of work BUT it does not have to go on for months or years of the dogs life.
If you are ready to get back to enjoying life with your dog let me know. I can help.

Playing around with some obedience at the park with Loki.
This big boy is VERY nervous and he can be reactive if he gets spooked.
This is huge for him to just be able to lay there as I walk away with people and dogs walking around the park.
He doesnβt play outside the house at all so we just take a few laps together.

Reactive dog before and after.
He used to go nuts anytime he would a new person or dog, mailman, landscaper, and he would go really crazy when he saw kids especially on bikes.
The first clip is the first day I got him and the second clip is his last day with me and the owner is walking him on the flexi with screaming kids around and people driving up and talking to us.
He has changed so much!
His view of the world is different and he has more confidence.
On top of all that his owners now have real control of him so he can be free and live his best life.

FREEDOM π
Being free is so important for a dog.
Loki is coming out of his shell and I am getting to know him better every day.
Once I taught him recall in a short time, he was able to explore and start to be more independent.
This is just his first week.
Stay tuned to watch him progress!

Verbal recall is arguably the most important command.
Check out Lokiβs before and after with 1 recall session.
He will be running around free very soon!
No ecollar stim was used in this video, just voice.
Getting out and exploring off leash is gonna help this curious boys confidence.
Do you need help getting your dogs off leash?

Dogs playing!
Itβs really good for dogs to play and wrestle with other dogs.
All dogs are unique and have their own play style.
There are some dogs that dont enjoy playing with other dogs like this.
The best way to have dogs play safely is to have control of each dog first.
This is why dog parks can be dangerous.
Most dont have a high level of control of their dog and not all dogs get along.
The answer is properly introducing dogs that you have control of and letting dogs play and be free.
Not ever letting them meet or play with other dogs is not the way.

Does your dog pull you on walks?
One of my favorite things to help people with is a nice loose leash walk were the dog is happy and you can enjoy walking together even around other people or dogs.
This doesnβt require treats or constant stimulation from the e collar.
One of the most important parts of this is that the dog sees a purpose for all this.
Simply walking back and forth in the driveway or in a parking lot will not translate to having the proper control in a real environment.
The dog must also have a very clear signal when its time to stay with us and when they are free.
Freedom is super important for a healthy and stable dog.
Astro came to me reactive, barking and lunging anytime there was a strange person or dog.
He especially went crazy for bicycles.
His confidence has grown and he has become somebody.
He knows how to act and he is happy to do so. π

Part 2 play vs toy
Part 2 of rewarding with play vs a toy.
We need to know how to play, the dog must know how to play.
We need a specific game and that game must have an objective and rules and penalties for breaking rules.
We also need an βoutβ which I will make its own video about.
Another thing that is important is our ability to physically play the game.
This will take some coordination and skill.
Stay tuned for part 3!

Unedited full obedience video.
While short edits are fun I think itβs important for trainers to show longer unedited footage of their training to showcase what the dogs they train are capable of and make sure itβs not just the βgood shotsβ.
This was a small part of an 1.5 hrs at the park doing many other things as well.
All this dog wants is to play with his ball so its very hard for him to hold positions when the ball is thrown.
This level of control can be generalized to any situation where he may be very excited.
Want real control with your dog?

DOGS STARING OR FIXATING ON DOGS OR PEOPLE!
If your dog struggles with reactivity this is for you.
For those that have worked with a trainer or watched videos online about βfixing reactivityβ, it is very common to find people saying to βnever let the dog stare or fixate at the triggerβ.
A popular technique is to lure the dog away with food and make them give you eye contact or tap the e collar anytime the dog is looking at a trigger.
I have seen this online and in person.
This is a very bad idea.
I wanna pause for a moment and say that whatever program you go thru, if you have to tap the dog constantly with the e collar when you are out, the training is not effective.
Anyway back to staring.
As you can see in this video, Astro stares, watches, and even heads toward the other dogs.
I simply recall him verbally. (No stim)
Itβs important for the behavior modification process that we let the dogs see the world and observe their environment.
Trying to make a dog focus on you and ignore the trigger can actually make things WORSE.
Reactivity can be a complicated problem and it should be resolved by someone who shows a good amount of proof of having solved it in many dogs.
I stand by my work and my clients will tell you I check in weeks and months after dogs go thru my program and if they need extra help im there.

Random enviornmental encounters from todays adventure.
Astro can be very reactive when hes out in the world.
Sometimes its just new people sometimes its dogs or bicycles.
He has been here almost 2 weeks and his confidence is growing and he is becoming much more comfortable in public.
How he views himself and his environment is changing everyday.
We are far from done but he is becoming an allstar! π€©
Does your dog struggle in these situations?

Rewarding with Play vs Rewarding with a toy.
This is the first video of many discussing training thru play.
A big take away is you must have a specific game you are playing and both you and the dog must be good at it.
Going thru Ivans TWC program completely changed my outlook on play and training in general.
Stay tuned for the next videos! π
