I made this video just to show that you can use the same leash walking tips (as my loose leash walking video with a chihuahua in it) with Dogs of all breeds and sizes. All dogs learn in the same way using positive reinforcement training.

Hi! Thank you for this helpful video. By the way, I hear many people keep on talking about Xobodog Training (search on google), but I’m not sure if it is really good. Have you tried using this dog training program known as Xobodog Training? I have heard some amazing things about it.
Awesome video, thank you! I’ve been struggling with my little pound mutt for months and haven’t been able to get her to walk loosely on the lead – I actually think we’ll be able to do it your way! She’s a smart dog and I’ve been able to teach her heaps of other stuff… just have to get this lead thing knocked over.
This is fab.
Poor betsy got attacked last month so she has become a tad skittish and pulling on walks. I have been using this method for 2 days and its working wonders
My dog won’t even walk like at the fist part she just digs her feet in
Hi! Thanks a lot for this useful video. By the way, I hear lots of people keep on talking about Xobodog Training (google it), but I’m not sure if it is good. Have you considered this dog training program called Xobodog Training? I have heard some great things about it.
oh god, I’m realising by looking at all your videos that I have SO much to work on with my dog.
Lovely video. My owner tried this me after watching it very closely (I watched too, got to learn how to train her right?) numerous times and now, at home and normal walks I am starting to behave like an angel, but still got a bit of work to go in unfamiliar places. My owner keeps chanting practice makes perfect, I seem to be training her well….:P
I see you use a lot of well behaved dogs, I’d really like to see you demonstrate with a dog without training. Just a recommendation
AMAZING❕
What we do is we have a expandibale leash and when she gets ahead I just say “Come!” and so it teaches her to come and not to pull. and when she gets to far and pulls i say “No Tug!!” and she comes back to my side.
I have a very large coonhound that will not walk on a leash. He will drag even my parents and nothing we can find works as a reward he simply wont listen. What should I do?
I love your videos! Thanks alot for making them! Is there anyway to demonstrate with a dog that is great with no distraction but when you get outdoors, the dog is much more distracted and pulls more? (As my aussie does
She is a great dog but has a hard time with other dogs and people, just gets very excited and pulls…Keep making videos! You time is worth it….
this is not very realistic all the dogs are VERY well behaved. try doing this with a 2 year old springer spaniel who is made of solid muscle and see how you get on with that
thank you so much now i know how to return a dog to its owner without worring it will jump on me cause its always in my neiberhood and it scares my friends cat
You give as much treats as the dog needs to stay focused. In the beginning stages and new enviornements the frequency of treating is very high to keep the dog motivated. As your dog gets more confident with the behaviour, the rate of treats decreases. If you’re worried your dog will get fat, just give him less dinner or breakfast.
Need advise. My 3 years old dog has no concentration nor eye contact with me once she step out of the house.Treat & toys don’t work on her.Once her hunting mode is on, she’ll just ignore everyone except cats,birds or other dogs.I’ve been trying to apply methods like stop/walk opposite direction,even walk after the bicycle work out ,she’s still pulling. Any tips that I can try to make her focus in order to train her? Thanks
How soon after your rescue dog has arrived in its new home do you think it can be leash trained like this on its walks?
Is that too much treats?
P.S. he is intact and will remain so even if we decide not to breed him, both vets we use say not to neuter until 2-3 years old, he was not nearly so unruly on leash until his hormones kicked in….lol How long does this type of training to take hold or is this just normal lab puppy behavior?
I have an 8 month old Lab puppy who is super easy to train in all aspects except pulling. I have a front clip harness. He is wonderful in the backyard, so,so on low distraction walks and absolutely terrible in high distraction areas. I trained him to heel first and decided to train for loose lead over the last month and a half with your method to make his walks more fum for him. He now does not heel or loose lead in high distraction areas. I am not used to urban training. Any suggestions?

How do you think Lucy is doing walking her friend?
Thanks for clarifying why you are using a harness here. I have a rescue who walks nicely on the leash until she sees another dog and feels threatened — she hits the end of the lead incredibly hard. On a trainer’s suggestion, I have been using the Gentle Leader in combination with a regular flat collar — one leash in each hand so that I can stop that horrible “snap-around” effect you get when a dog hits the end of a Gentle Leader. Will try the harness again!
Sorry, I wasn’t being very clear. What I was trying to do was click and treat before he is spooked e.g. in the way shown in the video on dealing with distractions in walks and I have been trying to capture calmness. I know that I don’t want to click and treat him when he’s spooked but am not sure how to respond to him being spooked when on a walk – when he sees something and starts to pull frantically. I know the ideal would be to build up slowly but it isn’t always possible.
you do not want to click/treat a spooked dog.
you want to capture calm behavior, and treat THE CALM BEHAVIOR.
Find KIKOPUP’s “capturing calm behavior” video.
To make +P easeir to understand, simply remove the word “positive” from in front of the word “punishment”. so called “positive punishment” is ABSOLUTELY NO DIFFERENT than plain old punishment.
Hitting your dog with a stick, using that “4 quadrant” baloney, is “positive” punishment. Why don’t we just drop the confusing word “positive” off of beating a dog, and simply call it punishment.
Punishment is punishment, and is not neccessary in teaching dogs anything.
i agree, but, Kikopup GENEROUSLY posting these short, easy to undrstand videos FREE on youtube are a HUGE help to wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy more of us than a lengthy and maybe expensive DVD….
I think you are WONDERFUL! I wish you would come out with a video, or a book, so more people will start using positive reinforcement techniques! Thank you!
There is a decided lack of assistance on youtube for training two dogs at once. You are one of the best trainers on youtube- would love if you would fill this void Kikopup! Many people don’t have the time to train multiple dogs separately and its easy to focus on one dog and miss something that the other dog is doing.
Again, love your vids…thanks!
Bella, she does exactly what my Basenji Shephard mix does! He’s a rescue as well.
I really like your videos, you have great timing! Looking for clarification about one thing however, you say you do not use +P and I hear that from a lot of trainers. Is not using a leash positive punishment in itself irregardless of what type of equipment you have on the dog? Without the leash, the dog would continue to move forward, so are you not punishing that behavior by using the leash?
The only thing is I’m struggling a bit with this. I don’t drive so can’t drive him to somewhere really quiet for a walk and we live on a busy road. He responds well to the clicker training but if he gets spooked I just have to stop and wait until he’s relaxed. I try to click treat when I see something that might spook him but I often don’t know what it is or can’t anticipate it e.g. a car door slamming. Once he’s already spooked the clicker doesn’t really work because he’s too worried.
Thank you so much for all of your videos. Using the clicker has made me so much more aware of why my young pointer-spaniel cross rescue acts as he does. His most extreme pulling is when he is frightened – only to be expected as he doesn’t seem to have been well socialised around people as a pup and I realise now that we have probably been reinforcin this fear by getting frustrated when he pulls and correcting him. Now when he pulls out of fear I try to deal with the fear first.
