Let me show you how to effectively communicate with your dog and clear up all the confusion.

07/07/2025

‼️ 𝐄 𝐂𝐎𝐋𝐋𝐀𝐑 𝐍𝐎𝐍𝐒𝐄𝐍𝐒𝐄 ‼️

We have all heard 𝐇𝐎𝐑𝐑𝐎𝐑 stories about e collars, right?

As a dog owner, it’s very easy to hear those stories and believe them without question.

I’d highly recommend to research trainers who use this tool properly and ethically - ultimately giving dogs the opportunity for 𝐒𝐀𝐅𝐄/𝐄𝐀𝐑𝐍𝐄𝐃 freedom.

Since dogs don’t magically understand what the e collar means, this is the 𝐅𝐈𝐑𝐒𝐓 step of several, that I personally choose to use.

How I do it it:

➡️ 𝐋𝐎𝐎𝐒𝐄 leash with dog not paying attention to me
➡️ Deliver proper e collar level
➡️ 𝐏𝐀𝐔𝐒𝐄
➡️ Guide with leash
➡️ Mark and reward as soon as dog commits towards you

Congratulations, you now have a tactile recall and your dog understands exactly what the e collar means.

The 𝐍𝐄𝐗𝐓 step would be adding your verbal cue and that’s super easy!

Unfortunately, many dog trainers and almost all dog owners don’t understand that you must 𝐓𝐄𝐀𝐂𝐇 your dog what this tool means versus stimming them until they figure it out 🤦🏽‍♂️

As always, if you need 𝐀𝐍𝐘 help with this process and you don't feel 100% confident, ask me personally or find a trainer who can 𝐒𝐇𝐎𝐖 you their work.

Orrrr

Proper use of the leash 🤔

Using the leash like this (R-) can be extremely 𝐁𝐄𝐍𝐄𝐅𝐈𝐂𝐈𝐀𝐋 or a 𝐍𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓𝐌𝐀𝐑𝐄.

If you choose to incorporate this, I’d highly recommend being able to read 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 dog and know the proper amount of stress/pressure to use and when this technique is useful.

Many people will initially watch this and think I forced, pulled, or dragged him down the slide.

In reality, he went down the slide willingly, with a 𝐋𝐎𝐎𝐒𝐄 leash 💪🏽

Almost every dog I work with has learned when they fight the leash, mom/dad release the pressure.

From their perspective, what did they learn?

Fight harder to get what they want 🤯

If your dog does this, you know it can be a 𝐃𝐈𝐒𝐀𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐑.

However, if you have taught your dog how to properly turn off the pressure, then the leash can go from solely a restraint tool to a clear form of communication 🙌🏽

Hard to beat a 70° night, especially in Vegas 🥵

𝐒𝐂𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐂𝐄 𝐒𝐂𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐂𝐄 𝐒𝐂𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐂𝐄

What did you just watch with 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐎𝐖𝐍 𝐄𝐘𝐄𝐒?!

As someone who is fascinated dog body language, this is 𝐁𝐑𝐈𝐋𝐋𝐈𝐀𝐍𝐓.

Is the sheep dog dominant, alpha, pack leader, etc etc

Call it what you want…

But for so many trainers/behaviorists/experts to be screaming from the mountain tops that dominant dogs don’t exist — I’m not buying it.

My eyes tell me something different and I’ll stick with my anecdotal evidence that I see in person and video after video 👀

Isn’t it also neat to see how this dog didn’t bark, growl, lunge? All things that society would say makes a dominant dog 🤔

I personally think this is very similar to people…

The biggest baddest dude never has to announce it.

❓Do you think dominant dogs exist❓

☠️ 𝐄𝐔𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐍𝐀𝐒𝐈𝐀 ☠️

Let’s ruffle some feathers…

Dogs are being euthanized at an alarming rate at the animal foundation.

And no—it’s 𝐍𝐎𝐓 just because people aren’t spaying or neutering or breeders.

It’s 𝐈𝐑𝐑𝐄𝐒𝐏𝐎𝐍𝐒𝐈𝐁𝐋𝐄 𝐏𝐄𝐎𝐏𝐋𝐄!

You let your unaltered dog roam your neighborhood? That’s on 𝐘𝐎𝐔.

You bought a dog off Craigslist from someone named “Big Mike.” That’s on 𝐘𝐎𝐔.

You didn’t train your dog and now you’re dumping it for being “too much”? That’s on 𝐘𝐎𝐔.

𝐑𝐄𝐒𝐏𝐎𝐍𝐒𝐈𝐁𝐋𝐄 breeders:
— Vet their clients
— Breed for purpose
— Take dogs back if needed

You won’t find their dogs in shelters.

𝐈𝐑𝐑𝐄𝐒𝐏𝐎𝐍𝐒𝐈𝐁𝐋𝐄/backyard breeder:
- Breed soley for looks
- Primary goal is money
- Will ghost you after payment

And if you paid $400 to “rescue” a dog off an adoption site— that’s great. But stop acting morally superior. You adopted. You didn’t rescue anything.

Also, “Rescue” is not a breed.

Whether we agree if disagree with what I said, here’s THE truth:

Until we start holding 𝐏𝐄𝐎𝐏𝐋𝐄 accountable—
nothing changes.

𝐒𝐓𝐎𝐏 𝐃𝐎𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐒 𝐓𝐎 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐃𝐎𝐆…

What starts as “cute” will eventually create anxiety, stress, and potential behavioral issues.

You must teach your dog independence—not just for your sanity, but for theirs too.

It’s not about locking them in a crate for hours. It’s about healthy space and boundaries:

➡️ Let them chill across the room
➡️ Don’t let them follow you everywhere
➡️ Stop encouraging clingy behavior

This isn’t tough love—it’s smart/real world training.

Long-term freedom starts with short-term structure 🤔

Here’s a zinger…

Put 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 emotional needs aside for the longterm benefit of your dog 🤷🏽‍♂️

☠️𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐌𝐔𝐒𝐓 𝐋𝐄𝐀𝐑𝐍 𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐒 𝐎𝐑 𝐄𝐋𝐒𝐄☠️

Or you will 𝐀𝐋𝐖𝐀𝐘𝐒 struggle with your dog

𝐌𝐀𝐑𝐊𝐄𝐑𝐒 𝐌𝐀𝐑𝐊𝐄𝐑𝐒 𝐌𝐀𝐑𝐊𝐄𝐑𝐒

“Good” = hold position. Reward 𝐂𝐎𝐌𝐄𝐒
to you
“Yes” = 𝐑𝐄𝐋𝐄𝐀𝐒𝐄𝐃 to take reward

Many 𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐊 their dogs know this 𝐁𝐔𝐓 dogs are smarter than you think and 99% of them of cueing off your 𝐏𝐇𝐘𝐒𝐈𝐂𝐀𝐋 movement and/or 𝐏𝐀𝐓𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐍𝐒 🤔

I tried to make Tsar mess up by:

➡️ Movement
➡️ Reaching into treat pouch
➡️ Saying random words

Here’s the kicker…

He doesn’t even know what “down” means and today is day 1 of teaching formal obedience.

For almost 2 werks, we have done nothing but play and set a 𝐅𝐎𝐔𝐍𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍.

Let’s not forget we are in a pet store 🤯

05/02/2025

𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐃𝐎𝐆’𝐒 𝐒𝐊𝐈𝐋𝐋𝐒 𝐀𝐑𝐄 𝐅𝐀𝐃𝐈𝐍𝐆 🤔

Just like your fitness, focus, or discipline—your dog’s obedience doesn’t last forever, without 𝐌𝐀𝐈𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐀𝐍𝐂𝐄.

Your dog’s skills are 𝐏𝐄𝐑𝐈𝐒𝐇𝐀𝐁𝐋𝐄. They fade just like ours do. And yet, I see owners blaming dogs for things they…

➡️ Never taught clearly
➡️ Haven’t practiced in weeks/months

The good news?

Once you refresh those reps, the skills generally come back 𝐐𝐔𝐈𝐂𝐊𝐋𝐘.

Show your dog some grace. Show up. Train. Repeat.

🐾 𝐋𝐀𝐍𝐆𝐔𝐀𝐆𝐄 𝐎𝐅 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐋𝐄𝐀𝐒𝐇 🐾

What does a tight leash mean to YOU?
Stress… and a sore shoulder!

What does a tight leash mean to your DOG?
Pull harder — because it works!

It’s OUR responsibility to teach our dogs how to walk politely on leash — and not when they’re dragging us down the street, but in a controlled way.

Before you start:
✅ Loaded marker (clicker/“yes”)
✅ Motivation (food)
✅ Correct tool (slip lead)
✅ Environment with some distractions

How to begin:
➡️ Let your dog show interest in anything but you
➡️ While the leash is STILL loose, apply slight horizontal pressure
➡️ The moment your dog yields, mark and reward!

This won’t magically fix your leash walking — but it’s a start.
You’re building value in yourself instead of being the dummy at the end of the leash 😂

Soon, you’ll raise the standard and teach them to walk with you, in a specific position — trust the process.

Important:
If your dog isn’t responding, more than likely, you picked the wrong environment with too many competing motivators.

If a leash is required — why wouldn’t you 𝐓𝐄𝐀𝐂𝐇 this? 🤔

04/25/2025

❌ You’re Rewarding the WRONG Thing

This mistake ruins so many training sessions— and most owners don’t even realize it.

You think your dog is responding to your marker word…
But your dog is actually watching your movement.

Here’s what’s really happening:
You: Marker = reward
Your dog: Movement = reward

To fix it?
Say your marker.
Pause.
Then reach for the reward.

That tiny delay makes all the difference.
It teaches your dog the word has value — not your movements/hand in the treat pouch.

Struggling with timing and training results? Book a consultation and let’s get your dog on the right track.

⁉️𝐖𝐈𝐒𝐇 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐃𝐎𝐆 𝐂𝐎𝐔𝐋𝐃 𝐃𝐎 𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐒?⁉️

Let’s be real—there’s nothing more 𝐅𝐑𝐔𝐒𝐓𝐑𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐍𝐆 than a dog that can’t walk politely on a leash.

But here’s the thing:
Walking on a leash is 𝐍𝐎𝐓 natural.
It’s a skill you have to 𝐓𝐄𝐀𝐂𝐇 your dog.

Most people don’t know how to properly teach leash manners—or they expect 𝐈𝐍𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐍𝐓 𝐑𝐄𝐒𝐔𝐋𝐓𝐒.

And that combo? It leads to confused, embarrassed, overwhelmed owners…
…who end up holding their dog to a standard they’ve never actually taught.

Sounds kinda crazy when you say it out loud, right? But more importantly—it’s 𝐔𝐍𝐅𝐀𝐈𝐑 to the dog.

In this video, my communication is crystal clear:
“Heel” = walk next to me
“Free” = go ahead and explore (but 𝐍𝐎 pulling)

This is what I teach my clients.
They get to enjoy relaxed, “free” walks and have the structure of “heel” when they need it.

Meanwhile, most owners are being dragged down the street, repeating “heel… heel… Leave it…” while the dog ignores them.
But every single step they take with that tight leash?

They’re actually 𝐑𝐄𝐈𝐍𝐅𝐎𝐑𝐂𝐈𝐍𝐆 the exact behavior they do 𝐍𝐎𝐓 want.

Let’s fix that.

“𝐒𝐇𝐎𝐂𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆” 𝐀 𝐃𝐎𝐎𝐃𝐋𝐄 𝐏𝐔𝐏𝐏𝐘

I’m really not doing that but was hoping it would grab your attention 🤷🏻‍♂️

Did you know that e collars do 𝐍𝐎𝐓 magically teach your dog what you want/don’t want 🤯

I wish everyone knew that was 𝐒𝐀𝐑𝐂𝐀𝐒𝐌 but unfortunately that’s not the case.

This video is showing the 𝐅𝐈𝐑𝐒𝐓 of several steps in 𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐏𝐄𝐑𝐋𝐘 using the tool.

My goal is to find the lowest level he feels, nothing more and nothing less.

This should 𝐍𝐎𝐓 be painful or overly stressful.

Matcha’s reaction was no different than if a bug landed on him, perfect.

All the safely, earned 𝐅𝐑𝐄𝐄𝐃𝐎𝐌 coming to Matcha asap, with the help of this tool 💪🏽

As always, if you need 𝐀𝐍𝐘 help with this process and you don’t feel 100% confident, ask me personally or find a trainer who can 𝐒𝐇𝐎𝐖 you their work.

BarNone K9 Bio

I am Robert “Robi” Taylor, owner of BarNone K9, LLC. Like most, my love for dogs began at an early age. I had three golden retrievers growing up, but it was not until I was 29 years old that I acquired my own dog, Nala. Little did I know; my life was about to change dramatically. To be honest, I was clueless on how to properly train my dog. I became obsessed with learning anything and everything I could to teach my puppy. I became so consumed with dogs that I began to volunteer at local shelters, obtain apprenticeships, work with police dogs (including taking bites), and anything else that would benefit me as a dog enthusiast. My passion for learning about dogs was growing each day and I knew I wanted to take the next step and turn my passion into a career. As I was concluding my career in the United States Air Force, I was certain of the path I was going to pursue. I enrolled into the most accredited dog training school, StarMark Academy in Austin, Texas. Upon finishing the academy, I was selected for their apprenticeship program. During my nine-month apprenticeship, I had the opportunity to expand my experience with training over 300 dogs in agility, behavior modifications, dock diving, obedience training from novice to advanced, nosework, trick training, and much more! Upon returning to Las Vegas, I considered working for a big-box dog training facility where I could continue to gain experience, while feeling "safe." Very quickly, I realized that wasn’t for me and I could offer so much more to the dog community by working on my own. It was then I decided to open BarNone K9 and I haven’t looked back! Since opening BarNone K9, I have continued my education by attending another major accredited k9 school, multiple seminars, and online classes. Most notably I graduated from American K9 Interdiction where I earned the title “Certified Patrol/Explosives Dog Trainer.”
