"Why would we want to bring the treats out? My way was fast, my way was not mean, and it worked." See, that's why we love you. People make such a big deal out of every little thing with dogs. It's ridiculous. Some trainers are saying you should be counter-intuitive and not say uh-uh or no right when they choose to disobey because ThEn ThE DoG LeArNs BeTtEr. You say uh-uh or no, they don't do the thing you don't want them to do, you praise them. And then you practice it a few times more until they're not thinking about disobeying anymore.

Literally, if you bring treats out around any of my “problem dogs,” they won’t do anything you want them to bc their mind is “FOOD.” 🙄 They’re all rescues, too, which is probably why; they have a bad relationship with food.

@@alexandersquid4681 I'm no trainer and my dog isn't perfect, but I NEVER use treats to reinforce anything. I just don't believe in it. A dog should do what you tell it because it respects you as a caretaker as much as you respect it as a dog. Treats as a reward for a long day of training or just as an initial tool to help with distraction are one thing, but relying on them to get good behavior is a mistake, in my opinion. I've always just tried to keep my dog very present when I'm training him and kept up with it until he caught on. Your dog will never respect you if it just sees you as a treat dispenser whenever it plays the game right. Whether or not a dog behaves without incentives is when you really know whether or not they see you as the pack leader, in my opinion. Treats muddy that.

@@donnaturner4795, I haven't watched this video yet ( sometimes I read some comments first ) there is absolutely no reason why treats can't be used when teaching a new behavior or reinforcing that behavior with distractions until it's solid. As with anything it's a tool and should be used as such ...and not a crutch. Once my dog is solid on that behavior that I've been teaching I don't need it anymore. Training treats as with any other training tool can be used incorrectly, it's all on how you use that tool.

Brandon mcmillan is the most gentle, thorough and effective dog i've ever encountered. My friend and i love the dog show and never miss it. So many times we've shed a tear of happiness just seeing a dog's life changed forever when proper training is applied and they go on to live their lives the way they should. I have brandon's book kzread.infoUgkxK8-VQWpYThx4IC6MiIvb6VS1ebTzzdxq in two formats. Not only the paperback version but also the kindle version to refer to when i don't have the paperback along with me. I have used his methods with my cavalier kc spaniel and turned a non-disciplined furbaby into a companion who has traveled thousands of miles with us across the country. He is a near perfect dog thanks to brandon's methods. I don't get one cent of kickback for recommending brandon but i do it because i love dogs. They deserve to be given a chance. Brandon's mission in life - to rescue dogs and place them in a forever, happy home - is very dear to my heart. I recommend his methods to anyone who has a dog - young or old. I've seen him take even old dogs and teach them. Brandon was an animal trainer before his current mission. His parents were animal trainers. His methods are the best i've ever found. Your furbaby will thank you for spending the money on this book. Don't hesitate - it is worth every cent.

I think a big part of the issue is the % of dogs from shelters in people's homes today is much higher than 20 years ago. Getting a dog as a puppy and training them from scratch and getting a shelter dog with issues are not anywhere close to the same. That being said, even though these shelter dogs are harder to train people need to put the effort in. The dog I adopted 6 months ago spent 4 months as a puppy with a rich family nearby and they gave him back to the shelter because 'he was too much work' and they kenneled him for 20 hours a day. The first walk we went on it was obvious at almost a year old, they had never put him on a leash and gone for a walk or taught him even simple basics like sit, down, and paw. I use mostly Beckman's style of training for him and it works so well. Due to his anxiety from his owners (males) I have had to use a lot more treats and positive train for certain behaviors. If he was more hard headed and happy like my Boxers have been then he wouldn't need the treats for training.

It's a hands-off method of control & thus "ethical". I had a neighbor like this. They thought I was being "mean" to my dog - I've always adopted & retrained shelter dogs, and the dog I had at the time was an Elkhound with such high prey drive that when walked her at the shelter to see how she'd do with my gsd-mix she choked herself to near unconsciousness trying to get after squirrels - by using similar methods as here. That neighbor had a bully-type dog on a prong & said the dog "loved" it because the collar made the dog "manageable" without having to do much.

I'm absolutely for being respectful and kind to our dogs (and kids). But there also need to be boundaries and clarity. There are so many dogs out of control, they can't even play with each other anymore and be social. And all the tiptoeing around them and purely pampering and being positive does absolutely nothing but creating spoiled, insecure, or overly dominant aggressive dogs that don't know how to handle a situation properly. I also believe in training tools like different collars, because they work with almost immediate effect if used right. That said things have to be used right and respectfully and not for torturing and creating a fearful dog. But showing a dog a few times kindly but direct what we need while also creating a loving bond, creates the best and most enjoyable life for a dog. If they don't really know what we want and what's not okay and they spend years with this insecurity or aggression problem until they maybe get it, it just creates a life of misery and stress. They only have about 12 years to life, so let's teach them effectively.

My shelter dog bit the leash when I first got him. "Drop it" didn't work. It was bad enough that we couldn't even finish our first walk. So I took him to a field on our route and waited for him to bite and tug the leash again. When he did, I wrestled him to the grass and didn't let him up until he released it and calmed down. No hitting, no yelling, just giving the command and spreading my weight out on him (I'm pretty skinny, so I wasn't worried about hurting him) until he submitted. A little rough-housing to show who was boss. Any time he tried to wiggle free, I'd just readjust my weight until he understood he wasn't going anywhere. He let go and we finished out walk peacefully, and that was the last time he bit the leash. That was seven years ago. I kind of knew he was a good boy and just needed a little perspective change. People are so afraid to try unusual things with stubborn dogs. Meanwhile, they'll spend weeks trying to do it the "ethical" way, as if a dog knows what that is.

Hey Beckman family 🐾💌, I have no words for your videos anymore. All I can give you is bravo👏🐾👏

Thank you. Totally love your style, your methods, your philosophy. This is working with my out of control, mouthing, leash biting, “I’ll do what I want” 14 week old puppy. She’s going to be waaay stronger than I am. I refuse to be ‘that guy’ being dragged by their dog. I know she’s still a puppy. We have lots of play sessions… but the LEASH means something! Thank You

We took in a neighbor's pitbull just about a year ago after they’d kept him constantly crated for basically his entire life, done no training beyond "sit," "down," and "paw," and never taken him on a walk. Let me just say, after all the positive only methods completely failing, your techniques have given us a totally different dog than when we brought him home. He's only 3 & 1/2 now so there's still a lot of puppy in him, but he knows that when we say something, like "sit" or "drop it" or "come here," it's not optional. We *will* push his butt to the floor (gently, of course). We *will* make him let go of whatever he's holding onto. We *will* go get him, and play time will be over if he tries to pretend he just didn't hear us. And he is a *much* better behaved and *much* happier dog because we don't make him guess what is and is not acceptable behavior. Thank you, truly.

I am a dog trainer - my methods are 50 years old - you are returning to them - and it is good to see -

This was actually a great lesson for me. I have my dogs very well trained and behaved, but often they know what i want from our habits, so they assume and go ahead and do it a little before i'm ready. I'll try shaking it up so they check in. Thank you.

Thank you for these videos, they really help so much! I started the go get method yesterday with my 12 month old pup after watching your video and I can see so much progress already. It usually takes 2 of us to get her, but now she is understanding my tone that we are not playing a game. I look forward to the day I can have her off leash and know she will come when called.

I tried the positive training with my 13 month old Welsh Border Collie. I swear I could see her laughing at me 😂 Now I do the Tug at her lead. She’s not laughing at me any longer, now she listens and learns. Great video.

I love your "go get" method! I have a lab mix that likes to bark through the fence at neighbors but while doing so won't come when called. I did the go get method two MAYBE three times and he knows if i call him whatever he is doing i will come get him if he doesn't listen and it's not worth the trouble for him. It was like night and day. Now when i go to let him outside to potty i can see him thinking about barking and he will turn around to check in with me and won't bark! Anyone who says positive only training has never had a stubborn or willful pet. To be honest my favorite phrase now is "i'm over it" it really sets a tone for training with no nonsense.

Thank you so much! I love your videos and your training method. I feel like not only are you teaching me how to train the dog, you are training my mindset on the why.

Every time I watch one of your videos I learn so much the loose lead works a treat I have a 6 stone American bull dog who was nervous constantly pulled to get back to the car I started working on your touch methods slowed the walk down so she could absorb her surrounds and used the loose lead it’s totally changed her and she is so more relaxed and confident thank you we are totally enjoying our walks now 👍

You are refreshing. Your videos are real life. I watch trainers seem to have perfect behavior in 2 mins but my guess is that’s 50 takes later. This dog is an example of how my dog is. Exactly and u are showing fixes real time.

I used the release and pop method on our walk this morning for the first time after finding your channel yesterday. Bloody brilliant technique. The best walk we’ve ever had. Hardly any pulling and she was checking in with me and staying close and on loose leash. We will keep doing this method and get this perfected. All the other methods I tried were not working and I don’t like the Mollycoddling way a lot of modern trainers train. So happy I found this channel.

“You’re not even s puppy. You’re an adult dog..” Too funny!

My dog is exactly the same! I find that changing things up in the routine is the only way to knock her off her crazy game.

I very much appreciate that you’re not trying to placate with constant teats and positive reinforcement. “I don’t care if he doesn’t like it.” 🙌🙌🤛🏼

Maybe not a popular thought but I’d check out a dog’s back or other possible source of distress/pain that the dog is avoiding staying in a position that stresses it. Backs, legs, paws can be painful esp w/4 legs. It can be jus silly but maybe not. Pets can have gotten a tweak somewhere in their big moving & rough play. They’re stoic or silly over stuff. Not that this applies exactly to this big long back dog. Js

Beckmans methods are amazing! My older dog was trained with the purely positive methods and she has a ton of issues no matter how hard I tried to use positive associations. She doesn’t always respect what I say. I started implementing his methods about being in charge and following through when I got my gsd puppy and he respects me a lot more. I’ve been working with the older dog with it too, but it is definitely harder than starting out with a puppy using these methods. That said, both dogs have a long way to go and this dog showed the 8 month old gsd to a T. Beckman has helped my dogs a ton!!

I really appreciate you and all your videos. I’ve been binging all night. Me and my boyfriend adopted what we thought was a pit bull from the shelter. Turns out he’s a Dogo Argentino. Who’s been a stray his whole life. He’s also only 1. He is the most loving and caring dog to me and my bf but does the mouthing when we try to correct him or grab his collar or harness. He gets aggressive around other dogs, and also aggressive towards certain people. Not all people but certain ones. We can’t afford to get a trainer or put him through classes. So I’m very thankful for you and your videos. And seeing your level of sternness makes me feel better because I know I’m doing it correctly and I’m not being “abusive” like people would say. I’m constantly having to discipline and raise my voice at our dog (Arroe) because he gets into everything. He misbehaves so terrible and it’s hard. He also has selective hearing. We’ve trained him sit, and lay. But only does it when he wants to do it. Only does it if you give him a treat. So when he met my roommates dog. They got into it because Arroe doesn’t understand social ques and when we would try to correct him or tell him to sit he wouldn’t.

Right!?!?

I just got a 10 month old puppy from the shelter she never been in a home . Your videos have made my life easier she is a fast learner too .

Thank you for showing a real life situation ❤

We only use martingale collars for our dogs to prevent escaping the collar! They make great everyday collars as well as training collars!

Agreed! My pup did a move and escaped from a choke chain one day. Since then I have used the Martingale as his standard collar. One mistake like that can cause a dog to be run over and killed.

I have done this over and over and over. The dog calms down for the moment and no matter how long I repeat the session the dog goes right back to the behavior. I could literally do this cycle for over an hour with no result.

Finally a dog similar to my lab Thanks for showing dogs that aren't perfect..so many trainers say the dog is difficult but they show a "perfect" dog.

This is exactly how my 7 month pup acts. To the "T" I'm definitely going to implement these tips on my puppy.

I'm going to try these tips on my paterdale terrier and let's see if it works 😂 she does the same things like JoJo but a little more crazier.

You’re the only KZread dog trainer that cracks me up

Great video - I'd love to see more on how to stop a dog chewing on the leash on a walk - I couldn't find anything in your history and I think explaining this technique. Thanks for all you do

but he is a good boi, little wilde, strong in the goof but a sweet character and afer a little training he will be an amzing companion

I have a super high energy thinks everything is a game big strong Husky/Wolf. I remember my dad being a super skilled trainer for his dogs and these methods you use remind me soo much of that! Ive never had such a high energy dog before and these tips have helped a ton with him. Especially because I got him when he was just about to turn 2 so a lot of what he does is because of lack of training while he was a puppy.

Joel keeps me going when I’m feeling so discouraged with my 10 month old golden. I’m totally on board but stopping the bolt is not always possible for me. I need to dig deeper though. Joel’s approach is totally on point. Thanks for helping me, Joel. You’re awesome 🙂

Oh I hear you,I have a border collie,golden mix. Loving but pig headed 1 1/2 and still mouths...grrr.lol

Where and how did he grab the neck at the beginning?

One thing people have to remember is to stay calm when you are working or dealing with a dog like this.

Thank you my lab does this and I panic so that is a great remainder.

Thank you very much for your video!!! My 16 year old boy is very good on leash but never listened or followed me off leash! We used your fake off leash method with 15 mins and we now got it! Amazing! Please keep making videos! Love you!

UGH !!!! I have a now 9 month old Golden Mountain Doodle..Golden Doodle and Berna Doodle mix. He bites his leash, jumps up and down for joy when we begin our walk !!!! Our puppy trainer always said "you should never take from a dog..always give something !" WORST ADVICE !! On the drop it command we were taught to give a treat. Our psycho of a dog always grabs stuff, runs, then expects treats so we can get back our bras, peanut butter lids, homework, tax papers, socks, etc. Chews on us as a human toy, pulls at our clothes...horrible to walk !!! LOVE HIM but damn I have a lot of work ahead of me !!!! Great video!

Your training methods is great thank you.

Great session, thanks Joel.

You are the realist dog trainer on the web. Thank you!

JOEL showing the problem first then the solution....Brilliantly shown mindset. YES!

This is such good advice. Honestly what we see going on with owners and their dogs is going on with parents and their kids and society is going to suffer immeasurably for it.

I kind of love this dog.

Thank you for this video! We just rescued and adult dog and while he is very good overall. He is a young adult and gets excited and jumps when he wants to play or we come home and gets mouthy at times. Love you’re videos and I’m learning a lot!

I love your videos ! I love your teaching !! Thank you so much

my dog does many behaviors Jojo does so I am appreciative of this one

The dog "training world" "NEEDS A REALITY CHECK"!!!! THANK YOU!! I just decovered your channel and I'm liking it! Thank you!

when you have an ultra chill rescue dog that just "chooses sleep" over anything else, and you just watch this like: wow. Interesting XD

Sorry can't help it but I love that dog, I would just have to hug him back lol ! What a playful loveable guy ! 😂

Right!? I guess I just don't care as long as he isn't destructive or dangerous. I livenon a farm so things are a bit more lax.

I can't thank you enough for your help! My new xolo puppy is just like this but a little more of everything I saw!!! Your ideas are working!❤

The best trainer. I like how u mention To be gentle with a puppy. Some people my mistake doing these things with a 10 week old

my dog is exactly like this, life is a game for him. He bites leash when we do leash work, he lays when he wants to, starts to ignore, you after 5 mins of a training session, he lunes. I'm so glad someone recommended him I hope these sessions work. I've started to be a little more stern with my dog and my wife thinks I'm being mean 😆

Tried the collar technique on my Aussi/Border cross that was trying to delay going on her evening walk by lying on her back with feet on the air pretending to be cute. Can't believe the effect was almost instant instead of me wrestling her to stand up we were walking! Love the videos and all the advice. Keep it up as we need help in the UK too.

Being tough doesn't make dogs hate you. One of my neighbors was watching an older dog for another neighbor. The dog had a huge problem with humping and the neighbors and the owner, who was a big guy, all said they couldn't stop him from doing it. It wasn't a dominance thing for him. He was neutered and only did it when other people around him were super excited and loud, and he wanted to join in. I stopped him in two days. I didn't yell, didn't knee him. I would simply put my hand underneath his chest and push him firmly while saying, "Off." Once he saw that I meant it, he stopped completely, even when the other neighbors came over, and as a bonus, it eliminated jumping as well. If any of us came to the door, he would calmly sniff our feet and back up so we could come in, always wagging his tail happily. I watched an older, spoiled dog for a friend. She won't beg at the table when I'm watching her, because even though her owner allowed it, she knows I don't and will lay down patiently until I'm done or she needs to go out. I was able to teach her to walk nicely on a leash in a couple of days even though the owner told me her dog is liable to run away and wouldn't stay with her on walks. I wasn't able to teach her a lot of commands because she's not my dog, but I got her to obediently heel on a leash, and if she started sniffing at a random piece of food on the ground, once I said "leave it," she would immediately obey. She wasn't perfect, but she did well enough for me to get permission to take her to parks with a large crowd of people and other dogs. These owners are adults who baby their dogs, and I'm a 25 year old girl who's never owned a dog in my life before. Those owners paid me to watch their dogs, and those dogs are always super happy to see me when I come over. I'm not strict, I've simply seen enough nonsense from other owners and their dogs, and I won't tolerate that.

I have watched this video several times, because my dog is a real clown, too, not ever aggressive. It really helps me. I appreciate the variety of dogs dealt with by Joel, but there aren’t many that I can find that deal with silly impulsivity like this (adorable) dog. I catch myself getting caught up with my dog’s antics and he ends up winning his way. Thank you for reminding me that we have to be “over it”.

I just realized the importance of ambiguity in the OK: Pay attention to me not just my words...As I became educated it was not good to think I knew all the answers but, we need to think we understand and prove it by analysis to learn and gain clarity. What a great concept--I have been watching for a year or so and some of the finer points of training are becoming clear. Having an open mind helps me to learn new things...there's always something.

For those of you who haven't seen a dog discipline their own child, its pretty much EXACTLY this. They have to learn what's okay and what's not.

Oh wow, when I read the title I was like, "Is this secretly about my dog?". But the body language, the color, the size, Jojo could deadass be my dog's brother!

This was such a helpful video, thanks for the explanation on why these methods work!

Love your no nonsense approach. My son thinks you have to give a dog an incentive to do what they are told. I told my son that the incentive is because I said so. I have a young dog with dominant personality so I don’t let her get away with ever saying “no”. She also does the mouthing and whole world is a game routine.. Thanks for the insightful video.

The variability mention really struck me. Most dogs live with more than one human in their house. Not every person is going to have the same exact expectations, verbal cues, and visual cues with their dog. I tried. My husband is more lenient, but he can also physically handle our big dogs more so than me. My dogs have successfully learned that there are different expectations with different humans. I hope I’m on the right track here. It’s the reality in the dog world and the people world. Again, thanks for the conversation about variability.

Really good info...i"'ve been doing this "breaking frame" on my pit that I adopted from a shelter, for about a year. This is a must...for some dogs.

I love this dog. He's loving but stubborn! Hahaha.
