Unfortunately that's how everything is in dog training. Half the population will love certain things, the other half will hate it haha. The same applies to things like treats. Some trainers hate the idea of using treats, while others love it. I'd just say to do what works best for you and your dog. Regarding the slip lead, it's designed to not have any pressure on it the majority of the time. So the reason some people dislike them is because they use them (or have seen them used) improperly, meaning that the dog is still pulling constantly, so the dog ends up choking on it. But if you use it properly, it's an amazing tool. Just remember that it's a training lead, so it's designed to teach the dog to walk nicely, not simply restrain them.
It eliminates so much stress to know that my dog is not going to charge out an open door or gate. We have alot of family members who don't knock and are lax about shutting doors.
Haha I get it. When people try to pet him, I'd say something like, "Not right now; he's training." If the dog is calm enough, they can help by having short conversation with you, but that's up to his comfort level.

I’ve seen other stay videos but yours I really resonate with. I like how you explain how you want canine to focus on you. I like your explanations of why your doing what your doing☺️🐾
My dog jumps up, pulls on my pants when walking him on leash in back yard continuously. I took him on first walk in streets recently and thankfully he didn’t do that. He was pulling though. I understand the streets was new environments so he was in an explorer state but I would like him to walk without jumping , pulling on pants with teeth and the sometime growls while on leash in yard. It may be play for him. Just subscribed to your channel and like the fact that you have a good amount of leash training videos that I resonate with. Much Joy . Thanks☺️🐾✨
Thank you for the detailed video. You answered my question relating to the benefits of slip leash. Just got a new boxer puppy and recently placed an order for a slip leash. Just came across your channel and will view more of your videos. This video was fantastical☺️👍🏾🐾✨

My dog loves going in to his crate. It's the starting in part he doesn't like. He'll lay in it all day if the door is open. It's when I shut the door that the problems begin. 😢
Thanks for watching! I would recommend practicing the exercises in the video link I'm posting in this comment (it's a more detailed crate training video). That'll get him used to being in there with the door closed and with you exiting the room. Please let me know how it works out for you. Here is the link: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-r8v-yHA5WxI.htmlsi=lbLBW21oDa8Jl2z7
Thank you so much, I really enjoy your clear explanations and demos. Just watched the how to use a slip leash too but it disappeared before I could comment, so thanks for both, and now off to watch with and without treats walking :)
I got a half Belgian malinois puppy almost a month ago now (she’s 3 months old) and as she gets older I want to do a lot of scent work with her for tracking grouse and to keep her busy during the winter (it gets very cold here and often will be too cold for much outdoor exercise) so this is very helpful! Thank you!
Thanks for watching! This is an intermediate step after you've already taught the #placecommand. If you haven't taught that yet, check out this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-dI2wUhNkHyg.htmlsi=u6n8HK2jg-1BXlkr
Yes, Chirag Patel's bucket game - all 3 parts and pedicure please by Susan Garrett. Also got my fearful Dobe (100lbs and not fat) used to a hound of the Baskervilles muzzle to help build his confidence. I had to get incredibly good at reading his body language as it was so subtle even for me. Susan Garrett's TEMP video and Kikopup's calming signals video helped a lot. Any kind of Nose Work helps build their confidence too. Several courses and if interested in competing, Baebae's training - she's actually a judge. Sara Ondrako has an awesome video on how to make a snuffle mat with a pocket. My one Dobe will leave his lunch in his bowl. He has to have it in his snuffle mat. Hope that helps.
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment! Great tips! I'm actually really curious about that one you mentioned about turning a pocket into a snuffle mat. I'll have to look that up. Thanks! ❤️💕
@@SomeMinorDogTraining yes, great craft even the kids can help with. Great fundraiser for shelters too. The only thing if you have a dog that likes to eat fabric, you'll want to supervise and pick up the mat once everything is gone. My guys don't bother it after the treats are gone. I also tie a double knot which prevents them from falling apart in the wash. Hound Hugger also has Free diy snuffle balls too. Hope that helps.
This is awesome! Out of the mouths of babes - this is easy! Love that there was no need for treats too. This is one of the few places I don't use treats as the eventual reward is going through the door - it's a self rewarding behavior. Will fwd to my students as this shows even kids can prevent their dog from rushing through a doorway. I usually have them practice on an inside door first - bathroom, bedroom, etc. before attempting an outside door - and of course not when they really have to eliminate. Will incorporate the line as well. Thank you for this!
Thank you so much for taking the time to watch, and for your kind words! I love the idea of using bathroom doors first. It makes it safe, even if the dog rushes forward. Personally, I'll also make time to simply stand at the front door and just watch everything outside. This removes the novelty of the outside world for the dog, so they don't feel the need to get outside so badly (they've seen the outside so much that it's not a big deal anymore).
Thanks for watching! Do you have a nervous or fearful dog? Do you practice informed consent? Keep in mind that this is not something that's necessary for all dogs. Caprica is a very special case. But pay attention to their body language, and listen to what they're trying to tell you. ❤️💕
Thank YOU for taking the time to watch and comment! I'm glad you were able to get something out of it. Good luck with your puppy, and please come back and let us know how things progress! ❤️💕
Congratulations on your new puppy! Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment, and I hope you find it helpful. Please feel free to reach out if you need any help. ❤️💕
