Working with a fearful GSP. Tension on - no problems. Tension off - dog shuts down. Working through some movement and trust issues. Once "following" happens, everything else will fall into place.

Rich that canine, where they're working with a nervous kind of skittish, fearful GSP and dogs on a 60-foot check cord, there's nothing being used right now, right, no anything pinch collar a collar, you name it slip Li, not there. It'S on to low flat collars with a 60-foot check cord, so good as I move off. I want the dog to come with me all. What the dog do is follow me. I'M not worried about him run around he's on a 60-foot check cord. I can catch the dog with sixty feet right, but I can take away the stimulus of being outside off leash and having to follow direction every little bit by using that lightweight string nylon check cord. Now, if I go down to the ground, he'll probably come here as my guest, no call nervous right doesn't want to come over here. Let me show you why, so it's not that he's! I got a fix that won't occur. It'S not that he's nervous to come to me. Yeah come on come on good boy. Yes, yes, what he's nervous about? Is it he's unsure and what he's unsure about is being outside without constant compulsion being jerked pulled pressure attention from the leash? Where do you want to go, let's go back to the kennel, so what I've seen is it when you get a dog like this super hyper and nervous neurotic? If you go right to hammer and the dog I'll fix the dog, also the dog, if I say he'll, if I say recall, I'll, show him that you won't. You really make the problem ten times worse. However, if we could come out, get all equipment off the dog, except for these little flat collars right, it says normal collars put them on a check cord and then start moving and really show the dog you can be outside move around not have to follow physical Direction but start following movement once the dog gets that down and they'll start following you around on movement alone, then everything else will fall into place, really really quick, but we have to get that mindset of any time I'm around the human I'm gon na get compulsion. Physical direction, yanking and cranking all this crazy stuff. If you can eliminate that very quickly, you'll have a dog that will skyrocket in training and you can get rid of a lot of that nervous energy. Something by that. So a movement will always cure most things. I got to tell everybody: structure is obviously right there with it right, but before we worry about obedience, training, we kind of get through this little guy, like you, can be out here off leash and have fun, but right now he doesn't know that right. He feels no tension right now. He feels no back pressure from the lessor. He doesn't know what to do. He has no idea, so I'm leaving homeboy, he wants to come, he's probably shaken, but he's so conditioned to feeling that pressure. He doesn't know what to do, and this is very normal promise. This doll is gon na be awesome once he learned see that paw up really unsure right, very nervous, very unsure, we'll get him there, a promise D conditioning the value of being off leash to escape and, at the same time, be conditioning the value of a needing That constant back pressure that constant tension of the leash was a very powerful thing. Total confusion promise we're gon na make this dog amazing when he leaves here. You see this, though right as soon as pressures on the leash, the dogs in the move right. So if I keep back pressure the dogs on the move, doing this thing give him a little pole, come back smelling noses on all that stuff's working, but, as you saw the second, I dropped the leash and walk away. He no longer feels that pressure. He shuts down so again right, leashes, tight, he's pulling me around he's good, it's nothing! He doesn't want to walk and explore and turn his nose on it's that when there's no tension he's so accustomed to tension. If it knows went up in here, he's worked and he's doing his thing small chickens over there, but as soon as that, tension goes on he's back in normal and in his normality. Right as soon as the tension goes away. It'S an abnormality to him and he's not accustomed to it, so he almost shuts it down. So there's what we got a recondition be out here without you see right a minute ago, there was no tension he's on his own he's like what do I do now, as soon as I put tension on the dog he's right back into it, Poland, nose down, Etc.
