This was a great video! It broke it down in a way that was clear to understand and know when to reward and click, as well as avoid any miscommunication between my dog and I. Going to use this to practice nose up, as I’d like to eventually transition into a competition focused heel.

I wish my 50kg johnson american bulldog would listen on her walks too. LOL 🙏🙏

My pup sniffs everything and completely ignors her favorite treats. I haven’t found anything that’s more rewarding than sniffing, even indoors. 😕

My dog is not food motivated at all and her preference is dogs and people. Puppy classes were difficult until the trainers realised themselves that Daisy did not want food! Finding something that Daisy really wants, food or treat wise, has been difficult. And she loves sniffing around outside and is quite stubborn when she finds something that smells really interesting! Hopefully as our pups get older they will calm down and react less to outside smells 🤞🤔

There are 3 more quadrants of operant conditioning that might be worth exploring.

Great technique. By using a bowl, are you also training for meal time waiting while also teaching not to smell everything?

What a sweetheart! Great video

I have a reactive pitbull mix who’s constantly got her nose to the ground. But she’s so strong that we need a harness with two leashes to properly control her and ensure she doesn’t somehow take off by tearing off both loops when she sees another dog. How can I teach her to not keep her nose on the ground if I can’t direct her head with the leash?

The real problem is my puppy is always taking commands if she knows I have food in my hand but if there’s no food she will ignore everything, Anyway my puppy is 2 months old. Can anyone give me an advice? specially she’s always biting anywhere and also my hand while playing

Please demo training using big dogs. 70, 80, 90lbs.
Also, older and teenaged dogs would be helpful!
Thanks.

You can train a dog to do anything but if you walk the dog for his benefit sniffing is just being a dog. Is what dog do, is part of their lives. Relax and let the dog have a good time sniffing.
