How To FIX Leash Pulling in UNDER 10 Minutes!

If you want to get your dog to stop pulling on the leash like Miss Luna here and get it to stop right now, we're going to show you in this one session how we turn a dog from pulling like a freight train and acting like a complete asshat and walking perfectly on a leash in as little as one session. It might take 10 or 15 minutes. Come along for the ride. No editing whatsoever. We're going to show you exactly how we do it all day, every day. This works on all ages, all breeds, all issues, 100% guaranteed. We'll see you in the video. All right, folks, we're out here with Luna She's a nine-month-old Cane Corso. Yeah, she's a little small. She might have some boxer mixed in there, but it really doesn't matter if she's a boxer or a Corso or a Chihuahua or a Great Dane or anything in between or how old she is. We're going to show you right now in this video in hopefully 10 to 15 minutes in just one session how we get a dog from not paying attention to us at all, pulling, being leash reactive. She's not a mean dog. She just likes to play, but she is a handful. She is no fun to walk at all. The owner is an older woman who says, I cannot walk this dog, cannot be done because when she sees something she wants or she sees another dog, she's off to the races. Now, we're going to show you in this video how you can take any dog, meaning your dog personal at home, you can absolutely fix your walking problems once and for all in as little as one session. In fact, if it takes you longer than 10 or 15 minutes or more than one session, you're doing it wrong. I suggest you come back and watch this video. We're going to show you three simple steps. They're going to help transform this dog who's paying attention to me or anything else or everything else but me, how we're going to completely get her to go into a heel position and do what we call a cheater's heel, or what you might refer to as a loose leash walk, a walk that you can actually enjoy. Without further ado, let me tell you what these steps are, then I'm going to showcase them. Step number one, see how she's paying attention to everything else? Step number one is what we call the corrective U-turn. Let's go this way. The corrective U-turn is simply when she's out front, we are going to turn and go the other way. Let me explain to you what's going to happen to her. She's going to feel this on her neck and go, ow, that didn't feel good. Turn to look to see what caused it and see that I'm going the other direction. It's as simple as that. She's going to learn that she's a life raft and I'm the tugboat and you need to pay attention to where the tugboat's going and get flipped out of your life raft. If you don't like that feeling, pay attention to the person holding the leash. It's as simple as that. Step two is what we call a stop and pop. We'll show you what that looks like. And step number three, there is no step three. You just pay the dog because they're in a beautiful position. So truly it's a two-step process. So without further ado, we're going to get this going, but you may ask, can I do this on a flat collar? Yeah, you can. I could do it with her. I'm also 205 pounds. She's about 65, 75 pounds, but she has zero Fs given. She doesn't care. She's a strong, tough dog. So I could do it on the flat collar, but I have to do it really hard on a scale of one through 10, like a six, seven, eight, nine, or 10. All I got, which is not great for her trachea, is not great for her neck to be whipping her around. So we won't do that. Instead, we're going to use the prong collar. Why? It's mama's teeth. Now the prerequisite is this dog's already been conditioned to the prong collar. She's worn it multiple times, had great sessions with it. She's not afraid of it. That's why she's not running away. But this is going to allow me to do this easy peasy. Instead of one through 10, six, seven, eight, nine, 10s, we're talking ones, twos, threes, and maybe fours. And because of that, we're going to get through this a lot easier. It's going to actually be easier on her. This is actually safer for her. Now, if I haven't said this already, we're going to get through this completely unedited, uncut, so you can see it real and raw. Now, sometimes just putting the prong collar on, they know what it is and it'll tone them down a little bit. She's still not paying attention to me. She's still not walking where I want her to. I can say, heel. I can say, walk next to me. I can say, please. I can beg. Now, I can bring out treats and this dog is super treat motivated. Let me just tell you though, if I don't have treats or she's not hungry, there's something out here that's more important than the treats that I may or may not have on me. She ain't going to listen to me. She's not going to do it. So we are not going to start this game out with treats. If your kid was at the restaurant with you jumping off the walls, acting like a wild animal, you don't use a lollipop or ice cream to fix that problem. You punish them and say, don't do that. And then when they sit there and behave nicely and do what they're supposed to be doing, then you give them the lollipop treat or whatever else it is. So right now she's not paying attention. So you're going to see your very first corrective U-turn. The technique, the trick to this is you have to do it only when the dog's not looking at you. Not very hard to do. She's not looking at me at all. And you want to do it as quietly as you can. Don't trip your feet and make a lot of noise. Don't whisper sweet little nothings into your dog's ear. Don't mother hen them. Don't say a word. Just simply turn and go the other direction and do it. When the leash is loose, let me show you right now. Wait till she's out here not paying attention. Three, two, one. It's as simple as that. Now, once you start to do it, do it right back to back. Amp it up if you need to on a scale of one through 10. That was two reps. Do you see the difference already? Yes. And now we pay her. Do you see the difference? It's just like that, folks. I can't make this stuff up. She's not like a computer dog and not like, after two, feel a little better. No. It's just how it works. That's why I said you can do this in as little as five, 10, 15 minutes. If it takes you longer, you're doing it wrong. Now, did we fix it? No. Let's stop talking and start fixing the problem. How often should you do it? Every time your dog gets three, four, five, six feet out front, simply turn. Now, I let her off easy on that one because she peaked me at the last second. We don't want to do this when they're looking at you. We don't want to correct or punish when they're looking at you because this is exactly what we want. Good girl. And I'll pay her for that. So, now we have two and a half. We'll call it three under her belt. And I'm going to do a lot less talking, a lot more showing. You see, it's already better. So, we might have to do one more corrective U-turn, but remember we talked about step two, the stop and pop? Once they go from four, five, six feet out to only one or two feet out or six inches, now you do stop and pops. It's the same thought. Yes, the same thought process. She's like, oh, let me be a little bit out in front. I'm going to stop. She's going to feel a pop. Ow, what caused it? Oh, the asshole holding the leash stopped. That's all it is. See, I'm not holding her back here. She's choosing to be here to catch me if I turn. She made that decision. She's like, I got to watch this guy. He does U-turns. By the way, if I turn and she turns, guess what? She gets paid. I'll see if she wants to pay attention. Oh, we might have an opportunity here. But you see how she's peeking out of the corner of her eye? She's able to do that because she's staying in a spot to keep an eye on me. Now I'm just going to show her, you need to stay even closer to me in order to catch me. Stop. So, get ready for that. I have to wait till she's not looking. So, it's a stop and a pop. Quiet. Most people screw this up because they make all this noise with their feet. It's not how quickly you stop. It's how quietly you stop. Chances are I do one or two more of those. You're going to see her go from one, two feet out to either next to me or right behind me. I'm doing that on about a three or a four. She's a tough girl. She can handle it. Please come here and look at this spider and show where she is in relation to me. Literally, we're done. That's it. The video's over. Go home. Go out there and train your dog and post in the comments below how old your dog is, what breed, where you're from, how long it took you to fix it. And that's it. We did three corrective U-turns and I should have been keeping track. Two or three stop and pops. Look at the difference. We're done. Now, I'm also a realist. Is she perfect? No. I mean, she's well on her way there. Let's go this way. What I think you want to be aware of is that all you have to do now going forward is anytime they get too far out, if you can do a corrective U-turn, if they're giving you the window to do it, do it. If they go from there to one or two feet out, now we're in the stop and pop territory. If you can stop and they don't stop, they get a pop. If you stop and they stop, that's step three. It's up to her whether it's a pop or a treat. Let's test it. A little bit of a pop. Good girl. Let's do it again. Chances are she'll do it here. If not, guess what? That's it. Yes. And she gets paid. That's all it is. So now we're three corrective U-turns, three or four stop and pops, and I'd say our work here is done. Now all we do is going forward every walk after this, we will employ one of those two techniques as needed, as soon as they're needed. Do not make it a gray area. Oh, sometimes you can pull. Sometimes you can rip me out the front door. I'll stop and pop or corrective U-turn once in a blue. No. Every time you pull, every time you get out front, you're going to get corrected. And then people go, oh, but my dog won't have freedom. Yeah. Let me show you what that freedom looks like. First we stopped. She stopped. She nailed it. She gets paid. Then because we're in a more of a park-like area, free, have a treat, have a party, be at the end of the leash. I don't care what you do. Don't pull me. But now that we made it over here, she can just be a free dog. She's still looking for that treat. We'll pull her along. That's a free dog. She can be free when I want her to be free. Then when I want her to heal, now that she now knows how to heal, I can say heal, give her a little attention on the leash and say, Hey, we're back to doing business. And if you stay in the sweet spot, I will pay you. She's going to spin around and make it happen. All right. A little tap, tap on the leash. Let her know we're here. She's a dog for the first time. It's actually not even looking at the dog. Now she is. Now she's not. Now she is. Now she's not. And we're going to test her right here. Perfect. Stop. Good girl. How you doing? Seeing that dog's behaving wonderfully, which makes a lot of difference. Look, see beautiful. Probably took one of our courses. No joke. We see it a lot. Good girl. Now we'll fix that later. Um, but I'm not worried about her being crooked right now. She's never seen that dog. We literally chased this lady down, passed her, jumped out and met her right here. She had no idea what we're doing. So she's a sport, whether she knows it or not. She handled this like, like pretty much a normal dog. It can only get better from here, folks. So I know a lot of talking, just really proud that Luna's come this far and just, I don't know, an hour, 15, 20 minutes in anyone that tells you that it takes you weeks and months and years to train your dog. Doesn't know what the hell they're talking about. You can fix problems in as little as 10 to 15 minutes. Now I'm not saying in 15 minutes, your dog will be perfect at everything. I'm saying you isolate the issue, you fix the issue, and then you move on to the next issue. How is her walk now compared to before we trained her? What do you say? Oh, much better. Yeah. How was it before? She would be off in the weeds or else she'd, she'd follow for a little bit. And then as soon as something caught her eye, she would be, I don't even hear you. And that's, you know, the prong and I can, I jerked. You were putting some pressure on the prong. She'd blow through it. And now relax, just drop everything. Yeah. How's that walk? Fine. Yeah. It's the way the walk's supposed to be. All right, folks, that's a wrap. But I have one special favor to ask you.
