I adopted a former puppy mill dog a month ago. Thought enough exposure therapy to a leash/harness with simple walks (nothing drastic like groomer, vet, etc.) would help him, but no, he's still petrified of them (but does calm down once we're walking). I'll have to try this method out! Slow n steady wins the race with TLC to boot.... love it!

@raisingyourpetsnaturally Год назад

Good luck. Yes, no pressure.

@raquelferrao3135 Год назад

Ok so, I tryid this out with my Beagle, he's 9 months now and each time I'd pick up the leash he just runs away. So today I tryed it out, all your tips and he seems to be much more comfortable with me picking up the leash!! Thanks a lot for the advice!

Hi thank you for the great video, how to take him outside for daily walk meanwhile? My dog is a one year toy poodle and he has been always scared of his leash, harness, winter jackets. How can I take him put during this process of conditioning?

Yes he backs up from the leash clip. When I did clip it on him he lays down and won't move too much all sad. When he bites my fingers I go get the leash and lay across my leg and he stops. Our other small dog is like put my leash on and go walking....thx for your info. He get back to normal after a day.

@sunshinesweet268 Год назад

Thank you so much. You are amazing. Also, my dog chases the vehicles and people around. Please help me train him.

@raisingyourpetsnaturally Год назад

Thank you. I do offer phone/Skype sessions. I book about 2-3 months in advance. raisingyourpetsnaturally.com/global-dog-training/onlinedogtraining/

I adopted an abused podenco and he is still so scared of the leash. He cowers in a corner of our couch when we put it on him. He stays at arms length when I try to put it on him after an off leash run. impossible. Luckily he follows me, but he won’t come when called. I have hired 3 dog behavior specialists to help him and none of them have suggested acclamating him in this way. Makes total sense. I looking forward to trying this with my beautiful baby.

@raisingyourpetsnaturally 7 месяцев назад

Good luck! I am so sorry to hear. It's tough when you put in the $ and time without any results. Slow and steady. Make sure the leash stays positive.

@joshuabodgers9238 12 дней назад

How did it go?

@bethmassa333 9 дней назад

@@joshuabodgers9238 This has been going on for years. I can get him more relaxed when I sit next to him then casually put his collar on him. But I am not sure I can ever get him back on the leash if he can keep himself just out of reach.

@kimberlymcclelland4717 Год назад

Thank you I will try this! Do you have any advice for a dog who was raised on a farm and never socialized? We live in a small city and my dog is terrified of everything. Refuses to walk unless it's toward home, scared of the leash, scared of noises, etc. Basically everything outside!

@raisingyourpetsnaturally 10 месяцев назад

I would seek one on one with a positive dog trainer that works a lot with fearful dogs. Good luck.

@geerdad 2 месяца назад

It’s hard to relate our situation to the video because your spaniel seems to have no issues whatsoever with the leash and harness. Our rescued toy Aussie doodle is extremely fearful of the leash and loses all appetite for treats when we touch the leash. It’s often left out in the vicinity of the dog and us so he ignores it except when we touch it. He freaks out when we finally get it on him, jumping and biting at it.

@raisingyourpetsnaturally 2 месяца назад

Dexter has 0 issues with his leash and harness. However, as a dog trainer who works with a lot of rescued dogs, my video should be helpful to you. I hope you watched it to the end on how to slowly desensitize and counter condition your dog. Remember, the key is to start at the point where your dog is comfortable. That might be reaching towards the leash, then tossing the meat treat. Good luck.

@TonyW86 Год назад

We are long term fostering a dog at the moment, he doesn't seem to be afraid of going near the leash, but gets very aggressive when trying to put it on him. Will growl, bite, and lunge towards us, the actively go to find and bite us. He does this behaviour woth other things top not just his leash. He gets jelious of us hugging anyone, he is aggressive and anxious to other dogs on walks... Other times he's sweet as pie and wants cuddles and strokes. We feel like prisoners in our own home.

@raisingyourpetsnaturally Год назад

Yikes. You really should seek a professional to work with you one on one. A veterinarian behaviorist is what I would recommend.

@pauliefindshisforeverhomebook Год назад

We have a puppy and tight outside the gate we put the harness on and left it on because of potty training and getting him outside fast before an accident happens. Now, getting the harness and leash on is a power struggle.

@raisingyourpetsnaturally Год назад

Lots of sessions each day will help.

@whissy44 Год назад

Any tips if your dog isn’t treat motivated?

@raisingyourpetsnaturally Год назад

I would double check a few things. 1-no free feeding (bowls of food left on the ground) 2- single ingredient treat (nothing else) such as chicken heart, beef, rabbit, etc. 3- cooked meat, warm and smelly. You can use toys, but it can be hard. Good luck.

@jamieavdeev3557 Год назад

what do you do in the meantime when you HAVE to take your dog on a walk...requires a collar and leash to basically be forced on

@raisingyourpetsnaturally Год назад

Lots of treats during process. Rewarding often so leash isn't tight. Practice 3-5 times a day. Good luck.

@GivanildoDantasAlves Год назад

This kind of conditioning approach will take days of several sessions I assume. Then the question is how to walk the do in the interim. Leaving the dog at home without going out would lead to other issues

@raisingyourpetsnaturally Год назад

It will. Unfortunately, behavior and training don't always have a fast route. It's important to practice these lessons a variety of times a day to work through them as quickly as possible. Also, ensure you are addressing any other underlying anxiety. If you can treat or feed a licky mat while attaching the leash, that would work. If not, I would suggest contacting a local trainer to help with the anxiety. Good luck.

@GivanildoDantasAlves Год назад

@@raisingyourpetsnaturally Are you saying I should not walk the dog while conditioning him to use a harness ? He's afraid of so many things that I think now walking him would leave all socialization needs uncovered

@raisingyourpetsnaturally Год назад

@@GivanildoDantasAlves What I'm suggesting is you seek one on one customized assistance to help you work with your dog and his/her needs.

@user-vv4zk7es3o Год назад

My dog isn't food driven at all he also hates playing with toys how do I go about training him to like his harness again he's associating it with going to the vets I've payed hundreds out for dog trainers and still no change

@raisingyourpetsnaturally Год назад

I would look at your motivation. What IS your dog motivated by? I'd look at the rewards and go for 100% meat, maybe freshly cooked and warm meat. Good luck.

@leaadelaide2206 Год назад

My dog started barking/whimpering like she was uncomfortable when she saw the leash in my hand. Do I continue with this method anyways when she does that? Or do I leave it for a while and do it again later?

@leaadelaide2206 Год назад

She doesn’t like it when its on, but after a while she starts trotting so sweetly on our walks and forgets about it. She’s only a year old if that matters

@raisingyourpetsnaturally 10 месяцев назад

Do more of the leash is on the ground, in your hand work, back off to no reaction and start there.
