Teaching a Dog SIT-STAY without treats!
This is Penny’s second day of training.
1) Get the dog into a sit at your side!
2) Repeatedly day SIT-STAY as you walk a small circle in front of your dog!
You can say sit stay as much as you’d like - were teaching the dog this at the moment!
3) Keep the leash relax. If the dog gets up say no in a relaxed voice and bring the dog back to the same spot & start over!
4) As you get back to the dog’s side, pause for a split second. Then say heel & walk forward!
If you want your dog to learn fast the goal should be to do 3 in a row where the dog does perfectly!
5) Praise your dog by saying good boy/girl and or pat the dog on the head!

Lots of issues could be avoided if people followed the above 👆 process!
Not all dog are friendly to strangers. Not all people want their dog to say hi to every passing dog!
We live in a world where people just ‘assume’ that every dog owner wants their dog to say hi to each other!
It’s not the case. And I’ll tell you why 👇
In this example I was talking to a friends mom and sister for a few minutes as we were passing each other on a walk.
A few minutes into our conversation I turn around to a guy who’s letting his husky pull him into me & the dog I’m training, Ollie. He was letting his dog come into my space and just say hi to my dog without even asking me or even letting me know he was there!
There’s a few reasons why I don’t do this or advise you to let your dog to this to a stranger
1) It encourages your dog to pull you towards other people or dogs on walks. Plenty of my customers are paying me to train their dog not too pull them and this is a big thing people do wrong.
If you let your dog say hi to everyone and every dog you can’t blame your dog for wanting to pull you towards the person or dog!
2) Not every person wants your dog to say hi to their dog!
3) Some dogs are aggressive. Not all aggressive dogs ‘look mean’ I’ve trained plenty of dogs you’d never know are aggressive and if you just let your dog into that dog’s space someone is going to get bit!
These are a few of the main reasons why you should ask a stranger if your dog can say hi to theirs!
** Let it be clear I, myself do not let my dog or any dog I train say hi to random peoples dogs. There are too many negative things that can happen and as a trainer people pay me to teach their dog to listen to them and not to go play with other dogs on a walk!

TIPS to Avoid your dog getting sick in the car!
If your dog has issues in the car a good place to start is by taking a very short drive 1-5 minutes if possible to a nearby park or field!
Once there spend 5-15 minutes playing with your dog, walking, fetch, etc. anything your dog likes to do- do that!
Now, if this is you this will take some work it won’t necessarily fix in 1 time of doing it (it may - but pending on the dog it may take longer!)
However, the concept here is instead of having your dog get anxious to go in the car. The end result here is your dog to LOOK 👀 forward to car rides!
WHY?
If you do this exercise your dog will now get excited (after some practice) to go in the car because it means FUN a la - a walk, playing fetch, running, etc!
Also, do your best to remain calm. People (often don’t even realize it) get anxious and the dog feeds on your energy which makes the situation worse!
Do your best to act normal and try this out if your dog gets sick in car rides!
Biggest thing for fast results : short car rides 👉 that lead to a fun activity and then go back home!
This will take some some work but if done consistently you will fix the issue and or drastically improve it!

Here we’re working on Macky’s Off Leash Obedience in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin!
This is a spot his owners often go so I made the trip up with them to work in public as their goal was to have him off leash yet obedient!
You’ll see Macky has no leash attached to him. What he does have is a short tab that acts as his leash.
The short tab allows you something to grab incase needed. So in this case he knows that HEEL means he should be right at his moms side and there’s no leash necessary!
This is why I’m so picky when initially beginning training as HEEL means the pup ears should be equivalent with her leg!
When the pup heels like Macky os doing he gets rewarded via praise - whether she pats him on the head or tells him good boy is the equivalent to her giving him 💰 $100 !
If he breaks heel the she can grab the short tab to give him a little snap on the leash while asking him to heel!
Can you imagine your dog walking like this in public?

Many people never train their dog off leash and a ton also don’t even know the possibilities of a dog that’s fully trained off leash!
Often time when you let your dog off leash it runs away.
A dog that is trained off leash will not run. The reason being any dog I train off leash has “Freedom” almost all the time & being FREE isn’t special.
Now a dog that isn’t trained off leash often times value being free sooooooo much more because it’s a rarity so when they are free they run 🏃♀️
Here, I’m at a park with Wilson with people & dogs around!
You can see he’s content just going about enjoying being free. Any dog I train can be free whenever the only thing is they have to come when we call them!
Here Wilson comes on the first command and sits right in front of me which is what it should look like. Then I tell him he’s free and he can do whatever he wants again.
Notice he doesn’t run when I say free.
He likes hanging near me. When he comes I praise him and tell him how good he is.
He is trained on an E-Collar for come. Which means if he doesn’t come I can give him a stimulation from a distance which he knows means come back to myself or his owner and sit in front of us!
This allows him freedom and his owners the piece of mind knowing their dog will come back when called and also gives both him and the owners the privilege of going anywhere off leash and not worrying about their 🐶 running away!
My goal is to educate people all over the world on how to train their dog!
Something I often say is a well trained dog starts with a well trained owner & my goal is to educate YOU how to be the well trained owner I speak of!
If this video helped you out or you think Wilson 🐶 is cute I’d greatly appreciate it if you shared it with a friend 😀

Training A Dog To Go To Her BED From A Distance!
Here I’m working with Maggie in her home on how to get to her bed from a distance.
When I first start this I will walk a dog right up to it and say bed while guiding her on to her bed!
Then I’ll say stay.
Bed Command: Some people call it place. I call it bed. It means go lay down and chill until myself or YOU come back to your dog!
This is used if you have people over, if you’re working, eating dinner with the family or if the dog is being annoying you can have them stay on the bed! The uses for this are endless!
I’m this clip, I’m beginning to teach Maggie the golden doodle to go to her bed from about 10 feet away and then afterwards when I release her it’s important to give her lots of praise and play with her as a reward!
Start by doing this right by the bed and as the dog progresses you can move further and further away and eventually I do it 100% totally off leash!
Would you like it if your dog stayed while you ate dinner? Were working? had friends over? Etc?
My goal is to help people all over train their own and pup 🐶!
Something I often say is a well trained dog starts with a well trained owner and my goal is to help YOU become that well trained owner!

Is your dog leash reactive? 👇
The biggest thing I see people do wrong is they stop. When passing other people or dogs so me their dog acts up!
This actually makes it worse.
You need to focus on having your dog HEEL and continuing to move!
Imagine you & I hate each other. You want to punch me in the face.
If I stop while you walk by me there’s a lot longer for you to react towards me.
Now, imagine the same scenario except this time we just pass each as we both keep walking!
If you keep walking by it’s real fast and over!
You need to keep moving and the issues will improve and or go away!
This is just the concept it will take some training.
Implement heel when passing other dogs and or people or whatever your dog acts out on!
I promise it will work if done right!

How The HEEL Command Should Look From Your Point Of View!
Heel means walk at your left side and the pups ears should be right next to your leg with a relaxed leash!
If you want to do the right side that is fine too.
However, I am consistent and have the dog on one side.
After proper training this is how any walk should look. It is essentially effortless as the dog is walking along your side with a relaxed leash.
Now my hand is right there incase I need to help the dog out should the dog lunge at a person, dog or animal.
When the dog is in heel I praise the dog by saying good girl/boy and or patting the pup on the head!
This is how Heel should look like from your point of view!
Does your dog walk nicely on walks?
It is my goal to help people all over the world by teaching YOU how to properly train your dog!

Can you imagine calling your dog when playing with another and the pup stopping on a dime & coming back to you?
This is something very important & could even be life saving!
In this video, Nina the Black lab mix is the one I am training & the golden retriever is being used as a distraction.
Nina & I are in a fenced in backyard when she is free and running around playing with Michie.
I do this on purpose to simulate a real life situation where Nina is playing & she has to stop and come immediately!
Here, Nina does perfectly meaning she comes to me on the first time she is called. When training a dog I train them to come back on the first command!
If she comes back on the first command she gets praised.
If she doesn’t come on the first command she will get a correction on the collar and then once she comes she will still get praised!
She of trained on the E-Collar for come
Meaning if she does not come the first time called. The second time I will repeat the come command while giving her a correction on the E-Collar!
The correction is a stimulation which allows myself or her owners to have control from a distance & if the dog doesn’t respond to you the pup is conditioned that the stimulation is coming from YOU!
Then once the dog comes she will still get praised.
However, in this video as mentioned above she did perfect which means she did not get corrected.
The only thing she didn’t do perfectly is sit facing me & you can see I grab the short leash she has on and straighten her out!
A well trained dog should perform any command on this first try but MOST IMPORTANTLY should stop whatever she is doing and come immediately like Nina did here!
Nina did my 3 week boarding & training program - this gives me lots of time to train the dog & then allows me to put the dog in a ton of different situations that are organic real life situations!
If you have any questions please let me know 👇
My goal is to educate people all over the world 🌎 on h
Having a DOG that is TRAINED to COME on the FIRST command is is important!
A trained dog is taught to come on the first command no matter where we or are what is going on!
Here I am out with Oreo and he’s Free at this moment. I have him free on purpose as I am trying to set up situations that are organic or as I call them “real life situations”
Him being free means he can do whatever he wants. The only thing is when I call him he has to come!
This lets the dog have more freedom than a typical pup knowing he will come on the first recall!
So here he does it perfectly. He should sit facing me which he did not do but that’s why when I’m doing off leash training the pup will have a short little leash attached where I can grab if needed.
In this instance Oreo came back perfectly but sat facing the wrong way so he still gets praise for coming when called and I grab the short leash and straighten him out.
To me “Come” means come & Sit in front of me!
The reason this is important is often times dogs will come back to you and then run off again or run right into you! Yes, I have had clients where this has happened and one even broke her leg 😬
To make things clear to the pup the expectation when recalling a dog is to come & sit!
Oreo is trained on an E-Collar for recall. This lets me or you correct the dog from a distance if need be.
What this means is the dog comes back the first time he just gets praised.
If he doesn’t come the first time, the second time I call him he will get a correction on the collar and then when he comes he will still get praised!
If you have any questions let me know 👇
Remember,
A well trained dog starts with a well trained owner!
My goal is to educate people all around the world on how to become that well trained owner I speak of!

POV: What HEEL should look like 👀 👇
Most people have issues on walks simply because you let your dog do whatever it wants!
If you focus on heel those problems will go away!
This is how a walk should look with Macky in HEEL the entire walk.
If you don’t want your dog in a HEEL then I tell the dog he is FREE!
What’s your pups biggest issue?
