My dog thinks his name is Cheese😂 Also, he used to have amazing recall, we’ve practiced every day for almost two years. BUT the other day he refused to come and ran through the neighbours yards AFTER our morning beach run AND away from his favourite dog I was letting him go to play with. He just left and was running around for about 5 minutes before he finally came home. I was so scared he was just running away from home! He came back but now I’m going to have to go back to long line training AGAIN! I kinda feel like he’s a teenager now who hates his parents 😮😢 I always thought we had a pretty good relationship but I guess I’m wrong 😑 So weird he left the other dog too. He loves playing with her.
I like hearing about your dogs and your training style. It’s always a lot of fun to find out how other dogs are trained. The b-roll footage is a nice touch.
Yeti’s Place yes, with the goose control job I worked very hard on recall training in the past. Skene has had a rough start with his knee surgery so he’s a bit behind. But his knee is mostly healed now and so no excuses for us now! I enjoy Yeti as well. He’s such a good looking boy. 🙂
i only use the name to get attention - i always follow up with a second word - like : Cherokee !come here! works very well because we use the name for everything and it wears it out. Also when you have esveral dogs it can be helpful to get the attention form the right dog :) I know some thinks it is a problem reg. sports - but In my obedience training and attending dog sports they are allready focused / i have their attention so i only need to use the word for what i want. Never been a problem :) . great channel subbed ;)
@@TheDogVlog I know, I'm trying to convince my husband to get one. Since we both lost our doggies a few years back and we're going to be updating our house, we're thinking in a year or two, but till then, I'll enjoy yours 🙂
Thanks for the video, it's very useful to have quality non-macho training ressources like this. I was wondering, about recall under frustrating or stressful circumstances, whether it might work if I *acted* frustrated or scared sometimes during recall training and rewarded the recall even better if the dog obeys promptly. Then if I am really scared one day because my dog bolts to chase a bicycle or a kid on roller skates, she'll know from the shrill in my voice that she's in for a double treat if she comes back right away.
I rescued a Border Collie back in Nov. His name is Max. He is terrified of men and loud noises. Here lately he has become reactive towards other dogs. He also doesnt want yo walk nicely. I dont know where to start.
There are some great courses through Absolute Dogs that talk about some of these issues. I will be posting my own videos with some training ideas, so stay tuned. Sometimes if the walks are too stressful you can start by doing something called "distraction, mark, treat" in your house or your backyard. I will try to post something on this soon. There are also lots of training games that you can do that can help build your dog's confidence. One thing to also remember is the less opportunity to rehearse the behaviours you don't want, the less they will repeat them and the same is true for the opposite; the more they are in positions where they react, the more they will tend to keep doing the same. I know it's not easy, but there is lots of hope for Max.
I don't understand your phrase, "not good driven", but if you have a specific question please don't hesitate to ask. Good luck with your training and thanks for watching.
Essala if you want to use food as a reward you can. You would start by using the food from your dog’s daily meal for training rather than offering a bowl.
