Stop Your Dog's Reactive Behavior On-Leash

my dog only wants to play, but he barks aggressively when he sees other dogs, and i dont want my dog to get in a fight just because of how excited he gets 😔

this all makes sense my dog got attacked when she was a pup .so now she has the attitude of i will get you before you get me. i hope these techniques will help us

Used to have one like the Shepherd. Wish I had seen these tips, I was never able to really enjoy my walks with him. Great info!

I have a highly reactive shepherd. I have been training him on loose leash training and now when he tries to go for other dogs I can correct him right away. I’ve seen major improvements in my pup thanks to this video. Thank you 🙏

my full grown male GS used to be so reactive on the leash ( he’s a rescue) that i was also worried for my own safety on walks because of how strong he is! I’m 5’1” ... so u can imagine how hard it was when he saw people or dogs! I couldn’t redirect him. Going to a professional was the best decision me and my husband made. While it was $$$, nothing can put a price on lowering mine and my dog’s anxiety. He still a little reactive but is easy to control/redirect. thank you for these tips!

Thank you for sharing this. We have a dog we love so much and he's wonderful with the children. We trust him completely. But he can't stand to be around any other adults outside of our home. He is barking and lunging at them. I bought a cage muzzle because I was hopping to teach him to be better. But you make a good point about the tension in me. I am nervous he will miss behave.

As a retiree I find dog training to be a great activity. Very rewarding and good exercise. I'm happy I chanced upon it. So many things in life are like that, serendipitous.

I’ve got a beautiful rescued Staffy, and she was rescued from an Arab compound in the north of Israel. She has gone through a lot of rehabilitation, but I’m still working on her aggression with other dogs. She’s very playful and kind around other dogs when she’s off leash, but as soon as she’s on a leash, she becomes more aware and aggressive, especially because she feels she needs to protect me. These tips are amaaaaaazing and I’m already seeing a huge difference.

I have to keep a tight leash on my dog because she pulls so hard. I bought a head harness and it’s helping a lot but she still pulls me when she sees another dog. She barks, growls, longes, etc. She’s about 6 and we rescued her after she was found dumped. She used to have a problem with even being touched but we’ve gotten her a long way. We drove 9 hours to get her and we had to stay in a hotel. She’s very protective mainly over me and my family’s house. She has REALLY good ears and she thinks it’s her job to protect the house. She’s an absolute sweetheart but she’s very reactive. I’ve tried almost everything

I’m sorry but how do you expect a short loose leash with a dog that tries to go for dogs as soon as they see them

Thanks I needed some serious help with my pit bull puppy I was the one you were using as example thanks thanks! Simple and to the point nothing extra! Very good instructor!

They make it look so easy, would love to see how they do with my dog.

Finally someone who knows how to work with dogs! Love this. Body language, energy, tension. Great!

I've watched this video several times and learn something new each time!

Such a great video! There are so many great tips in less than 4 minutes!

My Dane is very reactive and taught him to walk with prong collar (no pain involved), just moving away from the stimulus and treating for calm behavior.

We agree with all these tips. Good job! ~ Brad and Diana

I got a puppy in the beginning of quarantine and it was literally impossible to socialize him. He's a friendly doxie, he's the sweetest thing ever, but as soon as he sees another dog he starts barking like crazy, it's impossible to make him stop and, in that moment, he makes it his mission to get the other dog. And it sucks because there are a bunch of super friendly dogs in my area who even try to engage play with him but he won't even let them get near him :/

I will apply these tips for my GS he is still a puppy and luckily for me he only barks at other dogs and not at people

this is interesting. Not having the dog in front makes sense.
