Made a BEGINNING game today for getting started with heelwork kzread.info/dash/bejne/pKWssrivnZjRYqw.html for tall and SHORT dogs too!

The connection and attention span of your dogs is amazing.

thanks Ted! :)

Amazing focus and impulse control! You know sometimes I feel like giving up, thinking I will not be able to train my dogs to learn heel or walk on a loose leash and then I’ll see a video that you post and I will be inspired again to keep trying. Thank you! 😊

Bravisimo! Sounds like you've studied Claudia Fugazza! 😁 So glad you are feeling better, Emily! I sent you prayers, as God nudged me to, as a comment on another vid. 🙏💕🙂🐕‍🦺✝️ Love Bliss and Wish's focus! I, too, teach Heel as a starting position. You and your dogs are such a joy and encouragment to watch! Thank you, Emily! God's best blessing, Love and Hugs, JJ and Ruthie-puppy

I watched your videos almost 7 years ago for help with my first dog. And here I am again with my 3rd!! :) He's a little collie and I needed a refresh from your awesome videos! Thanks so much and appreciate your hard work and time! I know this video from 2 months ago but hope you are healthy again and doing well!

That was really helpful, thanks! Your dogs are awesome!

Your timing! :) My dog is doing Level One dog obedience, we are on Summer holidays in Australia, and your video is a reminder to get back to practice! At the dog club it's been about teaching my dog to find her calm, quiet, and loose leash walking. We are slow on recall at 4m because it's not challenging enough (she's good at recall from 10+ metres) and so she veers off to go say hi to other dogs in assessment 🤦‍♀️. Thanks for the inspiration to get back to training practice before dog club resumes :)

Oh thanks this comment means a lot! I actually have extreme social anxiety, and Bliss is actually my service dog for it and ptsd, I work hard on myself, maybe not as much as I do with my dogs, but I am improving a lot with self confidence. I do have a video on heelwork for my members, if you email me at dogmantics@gmail.com I can explain more about the way i train heel

My goodness! 30 days sick! So glad to see you up and well. It’s as if you read my mind with this video. Impulse control features large with one dog I walk & train,a 10 mos old Bernedoodle. I need to get the owners on board with games for her but they want quick fixes. It’s a conundrum. She’s a fabulous young dog, eager to please and full of excitement (apartment dwellers and both parents work full time so a lot falls to me on walks). I keep nagging them to always reward/treat her at their side instead of in front of them. But…. If only people were as easy to work with as their dogs.

For just a normal person who doesnt do fancy heelwork and just wants to have their dog not put them over, they could play a game where they walk and then stop and then mark and feed multiple tomes for stopping, then go then stop, so the dog starts offering stopping, and gets more interested in seeing what the person is doing. Well thats what I do with my dogs when they get pully, we play the stop and go game

Confession, we haven’t really done any heel work..when we are walking I just say walk together. Well we did around a table way back when he was little. Going to try this inside, try to work on his ability to wait with more duration for a toy. Glad you are feeling better!

Ive not done it with my two youngest either, its just a trick, for fun.

Emily, love this! I would love to get your take on going the opposite direction with arousal -- how do you build up arousal if your dogs are looking a little flat in the heelwork?

Thats a good topic.

jaw dropped at 6.43 lol

Wonderful, thank you! Something I'm struggling with at the moment is playing with and training with my two dogs seperately. My reacue isn't quite reliable with the Place cue yet and when either of them heae me use the clicker for my other dog, even in another room, they get too excited and they get involved. Do you have a video that relates to this sort of thing? Also do you use different cue words for all your different dogs or do they know who you're talking to by you saying their name on every cue or having the other in place only? :)

I have a tutorial on that kzread.info/dash/bejne/f5qG1KSBj8XLiJs.html but until you work on it you can train one while someone walks the other, if thats possible. or walk one at a time and train when out on the walk.

Hello Emily! Your videos are so helpful. I have been watching and using harness the hunter video for my border collie mix. My question is this type of training/heel work needed for walking on a loose leash? Or for hiking in the forest? Another question, do you have a video on training "bring" the toy back? My dog doesn't fetch, not super toy motivated.

Wow Emily nice work. Everytime I watch you or other trainers I just feel like a terrible trainer for my Service Dog in training.Your dogs are ALREADY highly trained so I can Never learn anything. Your dogs are extremely Advanced. My dog is struggling with me. I am struggling to even get him to heal at all. He's a Miniature Schnauzer mix and beyond stubborn. You're starting off showing us a Lamborghini and my pup is a VW. I can never learn from trainers on KZread because everyone shows an already highly trained dog. I'm frustrated. Have a good night and glad to see you are feeling better.

I've just had to choose what's most important. He picks up anything and will bring it to me, and he gets on top of me when I am having a "meltdown", I have Complex PTSD. I am still looking for a SD trainer to help.I found a cool Organization than has them all over. For now he's a wonderful pup. Take care Emily, I truly appreciate you.

Just seeing this - I realize that Heel has different levels. For me and my Terrier mix, I want shoulder at knee. I noticed 2 commands that you use 'Tight' & 'Push' the latter get's the muzzle up tall on your hip It Looks Intense! Do you have video that talks about these advanced positions?

@kikopup

Жыл бұрын

I do but its one of the member videos. Yeah, for little dogs its a whole other behavior really. Because I do heelwork on different sides, I use Tight to mean the left side, and Push is the cue to touch something with duration (like close a door, or hold the nose on a target stick thats moving)

Do you have a video to teach the tight?

That's hard

How do you even start that? Lol
