How To Get Your Dog To Pay Attention 

i love that you give demonstrations with average dogs, not a mal or gsd that is already fully trained 😊

Your explainations are so understandable! And it sounds so logical to train with his nutrition food instead of cherries on the cake. Thank you!!!! ❤

fabulous work - his little running man trying to get on his "place" is hilarious!

These are awesome. Thanks for concisely explaining and showing this process.

I love your explanation of hand position with the treat! The vast majority of trainers try to shape the eye contact behavior with the food as a lure. Then you have a whole extra process of separating the eye contact from the treat focus, creating confusion. I think your method is so much better!

Good info. Thanks.

This is helping me alot

You explain it so well!!! Ty!!!

Thank you so much for your videos! They are so helpful.

Excellent demo. You pointed out a few things I was doing wrong and what to do instead. BINGO!

Such a good explanation of dogs melds versus treats. I will rectify this and only give my pup his daily kibble, as he barely wants to eat it and its difficult for me to train him with it. All the treats will taken away today and see how he does and maybe gradually reintroduce them one at a time after he eats his kibble.

Brilliant! Really appreciate your videos.

You are fabulous!! Came across your video on TikTok thank you for this thorough training. Can’t wait to start using some of these techniques. Especially the v cut

Excellent demonstration, well done and explained!

Very good love this as I have a very reactive anxious dog

Very thorough. Great visuals and verbal instructions! Thanks!

Great video, already started with our terrier mix. Regarding the biting impulse, we've trained her to understand "slow" to take the food with care from hands, so when we are with friends or children of friends, they can feed the dog too without issues.

Just found Method. You explain very well. Very helpful videes

Great videos❤

Wow you make it look super easy 👌

Thank you so much! I can't wait to try this. I keep hearing about you from different people. Yesterday at the park I saw couple of well trained dogs and they said it was thanks to you.

Brilliant

Found you guys on tik tok. I love your content already!

❤

The funniest part is when they're learning and their eyes dart back and forth or they even try to keep one eye on the food hand and one eye on your eyes.

Finally someone that explicitly explained the importance of having a working dog work for his food. My doberman puppy gets 75% of his daily food during training. The other 25% after he finishes training. For a rescue dog that has no discipline 100% of the food for work is totally appropriate. Food for work is why wolves became dogs. I am amazed how many people completely miss this foundational understanding. I like your videos because you are beautiful young lady, have a good voice and excellent demeanor. Combine that with your common sense approach and you are the very definition of what Ecclesiastes calls "The Good Wife" that is worth more than gold.

A very very well experienced, and trusted trainer that I really look up to, pointed me to your videos, saying that you're the best he's seen in a long time. He quipped that it's "almost like I trained her!" lol You didn't happen to attend Carrol College, did you? They way you've impressed HIM, is why I'm here today, and why you have a new subscriber! Thank you for the content you're producing! It's SO good!

So do you hold the look when he gets the food because usually as soon as the food comes there focus is on that. and I have done it while holding there food and let them look at me and they do but as soon as I want to give the food and my hand moves there gaze will be on the food agaim

I am back to comment that I did this with my lab last night! He did what he already knew so well and he even stayed longer than before and I could actually go out of his sight longer than I could before without him looking for me... in the mornings doing this isn’t possible with time. I give him 2 cups in the morning 1 at night. If I give him one cup in the morning and practice walking with another cup mid afternoon a little bit before we go for our run will that food possibly effect him in any negitive way on our run? I.e his stomach will get upset? Then 1 cup at night to continue foundation work? Also have you had a dog where, when trying to teach something new they are overcome with extreme excitement because they don’t know what is being asked of them, even when o try to calm him down and walk him through the motions he seems to get overwhelmed and comes off as being high energy, unsure ness with frustration,,, how do you deal with this issue?

Do you have suggestions with very reactive dogs on leash (towards other dogs). She's a pit mix that is quite good with commands, except when she's on leash and sees another dog. She is fine with other dogs when she goes to doggy daycare.

Is there any reason you are spelling out the command sit, Down, place, etc?

can you use this same method with standard dog food instead of meat?

As a dog trainer myself, I like and rate your videos.

i think the dog can spell now!

How can I transition from giving regular dinner time where I use it for this type of motivation and he understands this is his dinner I’m giving and not just treats. Unless they just pick up on that?

Hi-love your method -wondering why you do the 'marker' yes

bless him - that dog has been through a lot

How do you hand feed a raw diet? What are the contents?

pinch collar??

How can I make she sits and look at you? I’m trying to put my dog tositbut she doesn’t want!

!!!!

why do you spell the commands instead of saying "sit" or "down"?

Id never put my dogs in those tiny prison boxes there in the background.
