What about training a Pomeranian who is 1) tiny and 2) prone to collapsed trachea? I can't use a collar on them, I must start with a harness and make it work.
Knowing the breed is so important. I've had an dealt with loads of Germans Shepherds (the best), Border Collies, and Pits and because I know the behaviour and temperament of each breed, you're right, I have adjusted to each dog successfully. However, right now, for the first time, I've rescued a street puppy. I don't know her parents were, she had Labrador features, but her paws are tiny so I think she will be small. In this scenario, where you are not sure about the breed, how wild you set the dog up for success? Trial and error or are there common traits that crossbreeds have??
Used a few of your vids when I was puppy training, this just popped up on my feed and it is by far the best, not only getting a dog guide, but also owning a dog guide, that I have ever heard. Top man Will 💪🐶♥️
i have a dog, she has extreme issues with leash reactivity and a pulling issue. ive used prong collars, excessive training, etc. thing is, shes a stubborn xl bully whos still a puppy. it is extremely EXTREMELY HARD trying to teach her off those behaviours. She can wait, shake, sit, all of those type of stuff. except for those two, any tips?
Amazing the amount of advice, technique, and information we get is astonishing and greatly appreciated!
I have a 7 month old Cane Corso, I’ve been following most of your structure: Sit, Stay etc. just wanted your input as to some realistic expectations for Her?
Love what you said about them not liking every dog, being that she’s Corso (Pure) I do know she’s guardian breed and I’ve noticed examples of that throughout training her
For example: my wife and I also have 2 chihuahuas and 2 large breed cats loves them to bits, no aggression gentle giant (was very specific when finding what became her as a companion. However my 2 yr old and I have taken her to the dog park for the first time the last 2 days… ultimately because she’s a protector and I cant guarantee others safety ( being that shed be loose with X number other dogs whilst still learning), the parks great in the sense there’s 3 separate areas.. I go to one by myself not hard as untrained eye she could be mistaken for pit etc. anyhow my point is no matter what dog she sees outside the house she’s hair up and more verbal. Doesn’t bother me dogs bark but, trying to gauge her because I feel from what I’m seeing and given my 2 yr old is with me she’s in a mixed emotion of I wanna trust you but, I don’t know if your coming for my people. Ultimately I’m super proud of her she n ver barks at home unless a passer by, gentle giant, doesn’t lunge whilst playing for a toy in your hand, hardly jumps up, doesn’t cover your face in drool…. Not sure her life before being with my wife and I but I had to work very closely with her to even understand how to kiss, how to attempt walking on a leash… was just curious to what some reasonable expectations I could expect. Thank you
Anyone who uses a prong collar gets no respect from me. Put some effort into actually training your dog without the need for a punishnent technique like prong collars. Because that's what it is and you know it.
We've just got a pronged collar and once our trainer got him conditioned to it our walks have completely changed in a few sessions. Now it's on to the obedience now
My dog Always looks to me and waits for acceptance to eat … Yet; Outside, My dog lacks interest and focus on me and instead ‘prefers everything else around him .. Dog’s, People, Environment, Smells etc.

Thanks Will great advice
If you have a well trained dog. Why do you do not need to use a prong collar. Can't be well trained then. Don't use prong collars.
“If you get a husky, don’t be surprised when he decides to break a fence and makes you do a spontaneous 5k run.”
When are they supposed to pee then?
Keep making the world better with your videos.
I'm seeing so much vidios saying mistakes owners make but none saying instead of doing bla bla do bla bla
Really gold for a dog owner
Prong collars are cruel, they don't train, they are a punishment
What is a prong collar?

I have a staffy and it is so hard to train him so thank you
Which is the coller u use for your dog when u train him
3:18 Is that a choke chain collar? Well no wonder he doesn't pull away as compared to using the harness leash. 🙄
Hey everyone! 🌱 I'm a BIG supporter of animal welfare!
Just curious, what do you think of cultivated meat for your pets? It's meat made the right way – no animals get slaughtered in the process!
For pets, there's currently: Noochies 🐶

those spiky collars are awful
How much you wanna bet the people that train their dogs this way also do this to their children (if they have any).
Just had to comment…..

Have you got a video on getting a dog on a tredmill at all?
