Here is a tip to save you a lot of time.

Rather than do separate training sessions, incorporate training into your daily walk.

Here, you will see me practicing Boone’s heel behavior for just a few yards in the middle of our normal, loose leash walk.

I may do this two or three times in a 45 minute walk. I might stop and sit a few times also. I might even get him to give me his paw now and then.

Between one 45 minute walk per day and having good rules and boundaries during every day life, Boone is a pleasure to live with at 11 months old.

YouTubers get paid for views - not results! Board and train at $1,200/week and you still need extensive follow up work? Please - save yourself the time, effort and money! The right information is a few clicks away.

Too funny

You don’t need these to train a dog at the end of a 20’ long line.

But if you (or your trainer) knows how to get off leash reliability…

Big things are possible!

My account got suspended in a +R only dog training group the other day…

Because, through very calm Socratic questioning I was able to get someone to admit it took them a year and a half to get from “Not being able to leave the house for a minute, up to a full HOUR”.

This - after drugging the dog and eventually weaning her off because of their great accomplishment! A year and a half to make 1 hour of progress!

“Great accomplishment” is sarcasm, if you don’t already know.

All the while this person kept asking me “Well what would you have done?” Over and over and telling me all the things she wasn’t going to do, assuming the advice I was going to give.

I hadn’t offered a single piece of training advice.

Or told her she failed (even though she has).

Or been snarky AT ALL. In fact I was super careful not to (becuase I know I can be).

I let the discussion drop after she told me about her “accomplishment”.

I never offered to help. She was way beyond that, and it wasn’t why I was there anyhow.

Then found that my posting privileges were suspended for 2 weeks or something.

I tell you this story to remind you - there are a lot of really crazy people in this world masquerading as “dog trainers”.

People who wrap their virtue up in caring for “broken” dogs. Literally - killing a lot of them with kindness.

People that are willing to leave their own dogs to suffer, and are quite happy to allow yours to suffer too.

Because the more broken their dogs and their client’s dogs are, the less broken they feel.

Don’t question them - because it’s YOU who needs better “education”.

Struggling along with nothing but treats and a trainer who can’t seem to solve your problem after months?

Hit me up - no matter where you are.

I’ll help you.
