That moment when she went to lunge, corrected herself, and looked back up to you... I really love this channel, I'm glad I've found it, this was a really moving moment.

@@willathertoncaninetrainingnot sure if you are able to help or if you will even see this- really hope you can/do. I have a toy poodle (2 soon) that reminds me so much of this situation- (reacts to dogs like this but if around the dog long enough has a little bout of play- but then later that day if we try again she acts ferociuos at 1st again like they've never met)- Do you have the video of where you help the owners learn how to lead this new life as I'd love to know how to have my dog learn to trust in me & me trust in her when around dogs. fingers & toes are crossed you see this...
As much as I wish I had sent my dog to Brandon for training before bringing him home kzread.infoUgkx1_veP7CApJK_GWy_TczaMciuG64PqJeU I am so grateful for this down-to-earth, practical guide. His training techniques and tips really work. Thank you as well for dedicating your life's work to rescue dogs, and to rescuing those of us who want the very best for our 4-legged family members.
Proud to say I am that person that shed tears of joy watching this. Great stuff guys

yes me tooooooooo!!! I have a reactive 3 yr old rescue and live in Mexico where there are 99% dogs unleashed and owners have no control or respect for other owners. It's so so tough.
“All the unicorns and rainbows you’ve ever dreamed of!” Love it. It’s so obvious how much you truly love ALL dogs.
Seeing how the dog’s behavior slowly changes, first anxiety then she starts to relax and interact with the leader, turning into a happy dog wagging her tail and smiling. Brilliant work!
Who said you're scary and aggressive?! Your techniques are amazing and I've employed them with a few dogs to everyone's pleasure! Good on ya! BTW, "OK! Let's go!" works with my 9 week old puppy!!!
I absolutely adore that you started showing (in the previous video) that Bonnie wasn't taking treats or play or affection as praise at first, so using it for redirection was, at best, ineffective. As someone who's still really working on my leadership with my dog, who has some similar issues (not really off leash issues, but the leash reactivity is on and off) more with people, positive only has been highly ineffective. And most 'trainers' are just obedience trainers, which doesn't really give those building blocks that you get from actual behavioral trainers. Much like you called out, just because my dog can sit or play dead or do something else doesn't actually mean they respect or are confident in my leadership, and learning consistency is a much harder battle than learning to give your dog a treat when they lay down and tack a word onto it.
Sully takes off, she jumps on you for treats, such a great moment there
Bonnie acts EXACTLY like my dog Sierra, who is a Pit Bull. People think she's mean and aggressive, but she just wants to play and doesn't know how, so she gets nervous and growls and snips. But she's such a sweetheart and has been so easy to train in other areas. I'm going to work on this with her now. Thank you!

how are you going to do that? I am thinking of doing something similar, but with a muzzle and long lead in a dog park. no other way to find other dogs running around to teach her with

@valjeanelander5700 I advice against dog parks for a lot of reasons but most important, theres alot of aggression from other dogs in the first place. I think its best to ask someone you know and ask them to play with their dogs while you do your job. Again it seems like a good idea but I really think you should stay away from dog parks
Absolutely astonishing! Since I’ve had horses and dogs all my life I can read body language easily which is why I was glued to my iPad as the video played out. Bonnie is “communicating” the entire time. I LOVED when she jumped up on you and went between your legs, if that isn’t complete trust and joy nothing is. I’ve clicker trained horses for 30 years and there is nothing as heartwarming as watching that “lightbulb moment” happen. The light literally goes on in their eyes when they GET IT, when they understand HOW communicating works and it changes their lives forever. Anyone who badmouths your style of training is sadly ignorant and must be ignored, kudos to you for patiently explaining to them how balanced training produces the results positive only can not. Beautiful, beautiful work with Bonnie. Sully is a magnificent trainer!
Amazing! Would love to see the consultation with Bonnie's owners as well.
I honestly teared up a little bit watching this unfold. What an incredible trans for this poor pup.
Thank you so much for this great part 2! Can we please have a Part 3 and see the follow-up with the owners? I'd love to see how you work with them, as, of course, it's always operator error and I am an operator full of errors! 😅
At 4:00 I LOVE those kind of moments with dogs. The moment their reflex is still saying 1 thing but you see them making the right decision instantly. Its beautifull!
I'm sure your calmness is a super power no idea how you do it
This part 2 to Bonnie’s training is absolutely brilliant! Thank you Will. I can now see where I’ve gone wrong in training my Loki. I am so happy I have found your videos!
Unreal! That is so miraculous to see her playing with Sully. Leadership is love, always ❤️
I love how Will comes of all butch and low voiced but when he gets an unexpected breakthrough with the dog he goes all high pitched voice like any deliriously happy dog owner. There's genuine joy and relief there from his part and it's wonderful.
Love to see how much progress you made with Bonnie in so little time. Then Sully came in to explain to Bonnie how to be a dog again, and the happy bounding about was a wonder. 🥰
At 4:04 when she stepped forward and then sat back down put the biggest grin on my face. Such a big difference!
I don’t care if it’s 3 years old. I gotta say that watching this made me so happy. It seems like she really needed to learn how to dog again. Watching the behavior go from anxious and lunging to stopping, looking at you and waiting is just so heartwarming ❤
I really enjoy ALL your KZread videos. You are informative, you don't dilly dally telling everyone about stuff totally unrelated to your video. Seems other training video's always have long, boring commentary along with their personal sales pitches of their own products more than training tips. Your training videos are top shelf in my opinion 👌!!♡

I cried like a baby watching this! Beautiful! Thank you for helping all these confused dogs [and their owners].
Bro!! I listened to you on the tom davis podcast and this came up on my recommended page today. I watched the first 5 minutes and legitimately was tearing up. You are so in love with the dogs and progress it's an amazing thing to see. Keep grinding bro love the content.

yo im trying to find this podcast can you possibly send the link bro to the Will interview please
Seeing a big tall man go down and give kisses to a dog and speaking in a baby voice is the cutest thing ever! Hands down good job bonnie! Right on!
Sully's happy to play with her because he knows he's allowed to correct her if necessary, my boxer mix was the same. He was always fair but he would always do it when it was appropriate. This is one of my favorite videos of yours. Not because I think it's the most generically helpful, but just because it's like story of my life over here 🙋♀️ This one inspired me to get into the academy and train myself to where I can help more pups and people like you have done! 💜🐶
Absolutely amazing! I got a little teary-eyed through these videos as she came out of her shell and jumped up playfully, then started playing with Sully. She finally knew, okay, I have a leader that I know will take care of things so I can just be a dog and play. I can only imagine the smile and tears of relief the owners had when they showed back up for their consultation and they see her running around playing with the other dogs! I have a new golden retriever pup who is now almost 5 months old, and your videos have been incredibly helpful. Her biggest battle so far is that she's so rective to other people and animals. Not in an any way aggressive way, she just thinks that everything and everyone is meant to be her next best friend lol. So on walks, she does great with heal and loose lead 90% of the time, but the minute she sees a potential new friend, she lunges and pulls trying to get to them and if she is meeting someone to say hi, she paws up tries to jump at them. It sucks because I would love for her to be around and meet kids and other dogs, but for kids she acts too rough with the paws in the face trying to meet them and for a lot of dogs she makes them nervous with her excitability. Any help would be immensely helpful. She's such a great pup otherwise, lol, and heck, even that isn't the worst. Side note: Sully is absolutely the best boy!❤
‘I just want you to be happy’ 😊
Oh! She went from an anxious baby with ears pinned and tail down to full of confidence, ears up and tail wagging is AMAZING!!!
Nothing better than seeing a dog being able to play with another dog and be happy.
there was a definitive shift that you could see in how they interacted when they started playing, which was beautiful!
im prepping to bring a puppy home. You make it look so easy I know it cant be this easy. amazing work.
You totally walked me, right through my Fear, and i was saying , commenting on the video before this 1 , I can see my dog has no aggression, but then as soon as I relax , she 2ill kick of, so i now totally avoid other dogs, I'm gonna watch this again, cause that, had me panicking lol , not my dog, ME, the human . We are more than blessed to be able to share our lives with our pets, my dog,s have told , over the years tell me everything, with their eyes , its pure heart content looking your pet in the eyes and gettingpure love back ❤, they teach us as much as we teach them , Thanks for sharing 👍
Awesome buddy, love your work! Completely natural training in tune with your dog, I see so many owners that don’t understand their dogs behaviour and compound problems with their actions, your a breath of fresh air!!
Brilliant video - I loved what you said about her becoming more relaxed as the weight is being taken off her shoulders !!
AMAZING!! I find myself cheering and jumping in joy for the progress! I have a border/heeler mix that has been giving me problems lately (hence the search for a good way to train her out of bad behavior). Found what I need, thank you so much!
Watching Bonnie play made me super emotional!
Ahhh so beautiful! I got my first dog of my own (grew up with them but never trained them) in March 2020 and I had NO idea what I was getting myself into! Hours upon hours of research and trial and error I found methods just like yours and implemented them. Bonnie reminds me a lot of how my girl used to be as she was very anxious, however once I learned to establish myself as the leader that is no longer the case! She is still shy but no longer anxious and even walks off leash beautifully (where permitted). This content is so informative and the way you explain things is just phenomenal! I wish I’d found your channel when I was crying to my therapist because of how stressed I was trying to figure all of this out!
I love how you are so respectful of the owners of dogs. You understand what is needed and are willing to share what is needed for canines to live a happy, healthy life.
So great to see a Dog completely change when away from anxious owners. At least they knew to get help. 👏👏
These videos are priceless for the average dog owner and also dog training community.
Man, this truly brought tears of joy to me. I LOVE watching this. Absolutely fascinating and intriguing. I just got my first dog in 28 years (I had them as a kid, but never on my own (and now I have one with MY kids!)) and working on this stuff now. THANK YOU!
Thank you so much for this! I have used a couple of other trainers with no success but I have started to try to try your methods when I see other dogs and I can see progress. I am now on the hunt for a 'good role model' friend
It's so lovely to c how carefully n gently Sully shows Bonny how to relax, play and have fun. It's amazing to c the intelligence n calm nature of your lab.
That’s affection right there when she sat down all perky between your legs. She wasn’ cowering for protection there, it was the equivalent of sitting down on your foot with back against your leg; pure trust and signal you’re now her person.❤️ Good job! Honestly, where I live things have chabged massively in the last few years. Scandinavia is the world capital of passive covert even, aggression. And amount of dogs owned by clueless people has sky-rocketed. So agression between dogs are as I see it, more times than not an expression of what the human is silently harboring. And when the dog is confrontational this becomes a great excuse for the human to unload, not on their own dog even, but the one already confronted. Seen from this very simple analysis the dog is doing a good job of listening to te owners energy and ”naming” it, so the owner can verbalize and idk get their outlet of aggression, which is absolutely horrible. The other type is the type you adress in the video for a bit, the owner is worried and at the initial close contact meet when those first initial lunges, growls and hyoer alertness cones forth, the humans adrenalin goes up, drag their dog away, essentially teaching their dog that was a job well done. I live in the city and do my best as an amateur trainer to help owners with dogs, working breeds mostly, who are overly anxious, frustated, reactive either to dogs or often times men, especially big ones, or men in uniform. I have good help from local friends in the neighborhood like our segway copper Mike who’s a dig handler as well and owns a retriever (and always has dentastix in his stash), local construction guys etc. But when it comes to the ”new breed” of dogowners now, it’s a different story. Often times it’s very hard to tell from a distance (so you can just ignore them) bc that’s how micro and passive aggression works. Sometimes their dogs are super happy at the prospect of a greet and the moment the dogs do get close they’ll say something like ”he doesn’t like other dogs!” And pull it away, even though it was a docile and curious 5 month old. All this creating mixed messages and strange tension. Working on handling all the signals and stressors and temptations of various city environments with a dog under these circumstances is a challenge. I do all I can to get to places with some alone space in parks etc to build tighr communication and trust through various games first, which I found to be essential to continue with the ”work”. Also to make work a part of the game, bc the dog doesn’t differentiate it’s all just rules of engagement and excersizes. I personally have much less problems with dog behaviour (even bad behaviour) than people behaving irratically or even outright threatingly towards my dog when we are not even paying attention to them in the first place. For an adopted dog with a history this can be sudden confirmation of al the angst they carried in the first place and bring us back to square one again. In a mideval town full of very narrow winding cobble stone alleys you need to take to get anywhere, it’s a predicament. I’ll admit it get’s to me as well, although I never raise my voice or hurry off stressed. I wish I had a foolproof strategy for situations like this. I read dogs well and because many others don’t (not even their own) they project anything onto dogs and people, and all of us have to cope with it. These are the individuals I’d like to see an e-collar on. Sometimes there are signs (like someone with a massive dog on a dinkt flexilead (!) or three angry salivating chihuahuas just asking to be one day bitten by an older large dog who’s had quite enough) Little dudes with pitties on leads 4 cm wide and only 10 cm long who look like they’s fly like a kite if push cane to shove, you know the type, dog’s cooped up alone alot and never off lead) That’s probably common in any city and can be spotted and worked around. The problem is when this isn’t the case. Another problem I have is after getting good results with the dog, great report and a relaxed two way communication, getting the owners to do their bit. Dogs differentiate between humans. And so many just wont ”plant the flag” and quite frankly don’t have gravitas at all. They want me to deliver the dog with new behavior to them, mission accomplished. And in no time they’re back to all sorts of complicated harnesses and haltis and collars for a collie. Disappointed I’d guess. Even after instruction and support, and initially training the dog by myself then the owner and dog. I do charge a little, but not much at all as I’m not a professional handler, don’t have the official diplomas etc. Not sure it would make a difference either. I love the work with the dogs and with owners who really care, are willing to take over. The rest just brings me down a bit. Dogs aren’t half as difficult to reach as people.
"Sully is a better dog trainer than I could ever be." - You're amazing.
Great video; amazing how much difference in such a short amount of time; clear how you love your job & the dogs!
Just amazing. Absolutely amazing. You are saving dogs with your work and sharing the methods and progression is invaluable to your audience
WOW this is one of the best videos I've seen. That dog has gone from being scared and anxious to having a friend and as you so often say, the weight of the world on it's shoulders. And wow, how good is Sully, what an excellent dog.
This video had me very close to tears. Beautiful.
Absolutely beautiful. Thank you and cheers!
Awesome work mate. Keep up the work!
Fantastic stuff - clearly delivered. Amazing to watch.
It's so beautiful watching your videos and seeing how quickly you can establish leadership with a dog. So much to learn and thank you for the work you are doing!
Amazes me how the play bow was so instinctive between them; great to see. Fruits of great training.
great work here. Sully is amazing and can read the other dog perfectly. Know exactly when and how to interject. Purely positive would have likely told the owner there was NO hope! all the while Balanced trainers are the enemy and bad. Yikes! Great work. Now Bonnie is going to learn to relax and enjoy life!
You have some really good videos. Thanks for taking the time to make them!
I hope my neighbor will watch this!! You are fantastic thanks for all the great information I have gotten from you, Bronte will be happy I am going to be a stronger leader!!!!
This was an awesome video just loving all your videos.
Another fantastic session Will great to see how quickly it can be corrected. Do you think we would ever get to see a consultation as you hand back to owners? I think that would be so useful. As a an owner, I hate to think I am the route cause of my dog being fearful behaviour, it breaks my heart as I want my pup to be living his best. I think seeing the handover and teaching the owners would be great insight too 👍🏻
Amazing!!! I live in a community with mostly positive trainers only. Owning an ESS.. they simply require a balanced approach. I swear positive based training is around to collect money from people and keep them coming back to fix behaviours over and over again, while over complicating the training to their human owners. Love your channel!
Top Job Fella! I love that in the last few minutes of the video you aren't even looking at them any more. You ould see there's no more tension and you're comfortable enough to let them play. Good leadership isn't just about imposing your unbending will upon them, it's about having the confidence and trust in their behavior. She knows she's safe with you and doesn't have to take point, so she can finally let her guard down and just have fun. Nice one!
Thank you for this channel. You have helped me to rehabilitate a very difficult, aggressive dog, quickly.
This is one of the best videos on dog training I’ve seen! Inspires me to be a better dog owner
Another great video. Well done, keep up the work you are doing.
Absolutely amazing, and showing it’s all about communication and relationship. She was so relieved to have your leadership. I’d love to see a testimonial from her owners!🐾
This is beautiful. You really are amazing and the dogs are lucky to have found you ❤
Love your content! Ready to pre order your slip leash! Can’t wait
Great video! Thank you!
Hands down the best trainer I've seen. Clearly loves his dogs and any dog for that matter. Keep up the good work Will and your team 👍😊
You’re incredible! You literally change Dogs and peoples lives. Thank you ❤️
Love the work you do man! Keep it coming.
These are my favorite videos from you!! Barney is so precious ❤️ and the audio is fine!
This was a perfect tutorial, love your technique.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. IMHO it's a 'must see', 2-part series, for most dog owners. It has certainly opened my eyes.
Great work and lovely to see balanced training in effect. I will try some of these techniques with my somewhat hyper Collie cross! Not reactive but definitely over assertive
Thank you so much for sharing your videos, we have a dog coming from a shelter with reactivity on leash and tried your method earlier today and it already improved so much my behaviour and with it my dog’s behaviour. THANK YOU
Thank you so much for your amazing work! Just in time found your channel ❤
This is a film I'm going to repeat watch, lovely to see the whole process. Thank you. 😊
Hi To the Fenrir dog trainer O.M.G what a Perfect result I personally think u are an absolute wonderful trainer u are So caring & u always show so much Gentle love to your dogs & u always give such good tips thank you 👍 I will look forward to watching your next dog tutorial Stay Safe Stay Well Lin
Watching this I've tried positive reinforcement with my rommie rescue, nearly had him 2 years. I'm watching this thinking he needs the same sort of training, he's reactive to most dogs, though he now has a couple of dog friends. Unfortunately his biggest fear/reactivity is with people, he doesn't like eye contact from strangers or strangers talking to him. I don't feel he's aggressive he's just anxious. Though when I first got him we couldn't even walk past a person without him reacting it's taken months of hard work to get him to that point. I would love him to understand that people won't hurt him anymore. In the home he's the most affectionate little dog.
Thank-you for making this video. A little dog I once pet-sat for moved in on me. When he was a visitor, he did some damage to my leg. (I was bandaged up for about a month.) Now that he is living with me, I have the chance to fix his aggression. Thank-you again for helping people and dogs like us.
Top work, thoroughly impressed
again you have opened my eyes, this is another great video every dog owner should see.
Thank you, this is brilliant. I have a dog just like Bonnie and your tips and emphasis on leadership are invaluable.
Truly amazing. I'm so happy I found your channel. I bring home my 7wk old Shepweiler Sunday and had doubts regarding positive reinforcement only.
Wow, that was amazing to watch you do that so quickly. Kudos to you and Sully 💖💖 Just amazing!

Very interesting, I noticed my dog was sometimes friendly and sometimes isn't. Also I noticed that when I had tension on the lead he was more aggressive. Thanks for the advice.
I love watching dogs play. Always makes me smile.
That was so fun to watch. Love the content you put out.
beautiful! Thanks!
I love watching you. What a great way to put a smile on my face!
We have a 8 months old black malinois, beautiful dog with loads of energy. We got him with 4-5 months old and he was kept alone in a warehouse, no socialization at all. We got him to have good socialization and be friendly with other people, but we are struggling with other dogs. This video is really helpful and I hope I will be able to apply this techniques and be successful with our puppy. We love him so much, but we were definitely not prepared for a malinois, he's our first dog. We will make him a happy dog, we just need to tune in and create a stronger leadership relationship. Great job Will and team, love the videos and learned a lot of things from them. Hope to see the slip lead and the training lead back again in stock, so we can have a A+ training tools.
