This dog is ecollar trained and has a history of nervous reactivity to dogs and people, and nervous biting as well as severe puppy biting. We are proofing what he has learned in busy environments. This dog spent 2 months doing food work and leash training before moving to ecollar training because he was so insecure and so young. Love this video? Please subscribe!

    How did you apply the correction for anxiety? Somehow I missed that? Ecollar?

    • @RuffBeginningsRehab
      @RuffBeginningsRehab 9 днів тому

      Anxiety is worked on in so many way, you often can't correct it straight out, but I can take a command the dog knows really well, ask for it and correct for non compliance. Then, I just see if that helps with the impulse control that is bad because of anxiety. That's basically what is happening here. He is corrected on ecollar. We also worked on corrections for OUT through play when he's in drive and that helped with over all impulse control and correcting for not heeling when asked (if it was in an environment he was familiar with and good at, always after a warm up too and knowing when I was asking for too much)

    Hello, watching this for a second time since you originally posted it and realized I never got around to asking you the question that I still have. How do you decide what amount of sniffing is okay in order for them to find a spot to poo ? Sometimes it seems my dog has to poo and then I realize he just doesn't and he is essentially just taking me for a walk:) How do you take your dog for a walk and be in control somewhat of when they poo ? Thanks

    • @RuffBeginningsRehab
      @RuffBeginningsRehab 3 місяці тому

      Often times, yes. This is a very thin slip leash I got on Amazon and when you teach leash pressure, have good food drive, you can be very successful. However, on breeds with short snouts, big eyes or yorki's (known for having trachea issues) I prefer to first train on a star mark or a micro prong (with rubber tips if dog is sensitive) and when they are doing well and an adult, switch to slip if you want.

    Thank you for the tips! Do you find that as soon as you leave the house for the walk and the dog is very excited, you need higher levels on the e-collar initially to get their attention than later on after the excitement subsides? For an already trained on the e-collar dog of course. :)

    • @RuffBeginningsRehab
      @RuffBeginningsRehab 3 місяці тому

      Yup! I would also say the walk starts inside the house. How is the dog when you put your shoes on, grab leash, leash up, walk to front door, open front door, etc. I rarely work on the walk. Usually I'm working on a lot inside first before working on things outside. Just don't forget that. For me it's so important because that is how I am fair to the dog. Not letting excitement go and then just being demanding.

      @@accufab Yea, I'm a dog behaviorist. But it would be rules not necessary structure. When you have a dog that's trying to lead the issue is more trust and respect! The problem is this trainer is conditioning an e-collar to stop a behavior, but an e-collar doesn't create leadership it creates suppression which is fine if that's the goal. This dog does need a firmer owner! This trainer needs to teach the owner how to be firmer to create a softer dog. And it's not a prong & e-collar! once the owner makes a mistake with the e-collar that a whole new level of trust and respect that will be lost.

    Do you have anything with step by step instructions? My puppy has the worse separation anxiety. The crate is absolutely a no go. It ends up being a full blown cleaning and grooming in the middle of the night because he will pee, poop, and step all in it. He has to sleep with me because he acts a complete basket case if I put him in the crate. I don't get much sleep with him sleeping with me because I'm worried if he moves if he has to pee.

If he listens and stays in his place, gets a treat and a toy, he is very happy. As he runs to the door and clenches his jaw, he receives a warning in the form of a prong collar. However, I don't always have time to run and take him to my place, so I want to introduce an electric collar so that when we are not at home and the dog is naughty (we have a camera in the living room), he will receive a remote impulse injection and calm down. the notification can record a video of working with the dog and using the tool collar. you have a great channel on UA-cam. I've already watched a lot of movies.

      @RuffBeginningsRehab 6 місяців тому

      I would say you can correct the bad behavior of reacting to the door with ecollar, but then in such an intense and emotional scenario, guide him back to play with body language or leash guidance. Say no leash and you correct running to the door intensely. Dog might just freeze. Get in front of him and just use spacial pressure (walking into him) to have him give more space, no ecollar and then say place when you are closer to it in a neutral tone. If that is even hard, then you need to have your dog drag a leash when you are supervising him so you can calmly guide him back to place with the leash. He will put it together quickly. This is to make sure you don't accidentally over communicate with him.

    With more dedicated, serious breeds, or dogs that arent food motivated, turning the 180 into a (light as possible) leash correction will refocus their attention extremely well. I've seen 5 minutes turn a dog around. I like to start with your method, but if they willfully ignore it for more than a couple sessions, firm motions work wonders. It can be temporarily stressful for the dog, but getting a dog to the point where they get to quickly enjoy happy, stress free walks is preferable to then spending days, weeks, months struggling through training sessions.

      It's definitely harder to move into small dogs. You hold the leash back a bit for guidance like in the video and then out and away from you a little. Once your little dog starts to look up at you when they see you move towards them (more slowly then big dogs) you won't need leash pressure up and away from you anymore, just maybe still back a bit for guidance. If you are struggling with those things, I would focus more on the redirection though walking back and food (if he'll take it) and turning for a week before layering on moving in. Also, don't start outside. Practice in the house and yard for a couple weeks first.

    What do you do if you can't even get near your dog's nails with the dremel on?

      @RuffBeginningsRehab 7 місяців тому

      you desensitize the Dremel, food Dremel. With a place command and a leash taught to the dog, you should be able to get right next to them, then you use food and desensitize noise.

      This is the dogs meal, but you can add snacks if they are healthy and the dog isn't over weight.

      yes, she just needs to get used to it, no pressure, so just wearing it, then wearing it while eating, playing and training with no leash or dragging leash and build to using it over the course of a couple weeks. If supervised, try 2-4 bouts a day of wearing it an hour. She needs to have it on long enough she doesn't care about it anymore before taking it off. That is likely o take longer then 10 min.

      you always want to target intent as well (the looking for cats) otherwise you'll always be working behind the arousal.

    You really shouldn't be using a choke collar (especially a pronged one) whenn dealing with a fearful dog. He's obviuosly stressed, no need to make him feel even more threatened by the "jaws" closing in on his throat whenever you tug!

    • @LucyJazzy85
      @LucyJazzy85 11 місяців тому

      I do agree with you about that pronged collar… but she is actually doing most things correctly imho here but in my experience dogs will naturally seek your approval without having to “trap” them using what I consider to be a medieval device. To me it’s the same thing as training a horse using an electric crop that emits a shock as a corrective measure. She said she was pregnant so I’m sure it makes it easier to control a larger dog but I’m certain she would get the same result without it even though it may take a little extra time. She is good about consistently rewarding the dog verbally instead of giving it treats. Dogs just naturally want to please us which is why we call them man’s best friend. Peace ☮️

      Sorry you are mistaken, but everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Prong collar is GREAT for nervous dogs. Slip leash can be the way to go for some, but not this guy. He has a huge bolting issue with his owners and refusal to do things from fear, reactivity, or just out of habit. Prong collar is a safe way to apply pressure guidance to the dog without them choking out and they become less resistant, making it LESS stressful since they figure it out faster. There is no force here in this instance, just holding fast and guidance. When you get less resistance with a tool, there is actually less stress, not more in the long term. There is also a great relationship benefit of working him through his stress like this by following instead of doing one step a day for a week rather then all the steps every day for a week. (some dogs would be different, but not him, he was good to go with since he already had good pack drive)

      @@LucyJazzy85 LOL Most things...thanks. You might see from the hundreds of videos on here that I use mostly prong collars. Little dogs, big dogs, etc. Not because of size or strength, though that it can be helpful in those instances as well. Yes, this dog already had good pack drive, making this easier to accomplish, but no, not all dogs want to just please.
