    @xfyre101 Who said anything about electrocuting my dog? I use the “page” function. The dog gets no electrical stimulation at all. The dog is taught in a very peaceful manner and is NOT mistreated. I’ve been training dogs for more years than you are old and all my dogs work happily and reliably and learn MUCH quicker than a clicker can train them. I also run in the Open class at herding trials. I challenge you (and your dog) to a stay contest.

    With an E-collar you’d get a dog frozen in place out of terror. If that’s what you consider a trained “stay”, ok, but I’d prefer a well-adjusted dog who doesn’t fear training sessions.

    Ohhhh wow a stay competition doesnt that sound fucken gay and fruity

  7. reiki2guy says:

    @drafthorseMD You obviously have never used one and like most people who have never learned how to use one, you are completely wrong. My dogs do not fear the e-collar as I use the “page” function which is nothing more than the same vibration you have with a cell phone. I challenge MY e-collar trained dogs against your clicker trained dogs on the stay exercise. I’m willing to put up a sizable hunk of money to prove it.

    @reiki2guy : I grew up old-school with punishment and shock collars… I ended up with a lab who became terrified of collars because he was sure “those scary buzzing/biting bees” lived inside all collars.
    Some dogs just don’t respond well to aversives, especially when already scared. If you’re clicker-training, you probably shouldn’t be mixing potentially scary aversive with C+R. Check out Jesus Ruiz Rosales’ Dog Behavioral research @ U of N Texas on “poison cues”.

    @reiki2guy I’ve since thrown away the correction collars (and choke chains). I realized that clickertraing is powerful by itself, and I don’t *need* other stuff. And why muddy the waters for the animal with fear or anxiety associated with the behavior? Classical conditioning says if you pair something unpleasant with a stimulus, the animal begins to associate bad things happening with it. Pair aversive with the “stay” cue & dog learns to be anxious anticipating the bad “vibration”.

    @kevinoophamaa it’s not the same ”free” just using simple words when you talk to the dog

  14. mrreaver5 says:

    this is sooooo helpful and it actually saved my dogs life

  15. CadeSperoni says:

    how does this work if you dont have food? my dog always pays attention when i have food. but her being a puppy, doesnt mind me as much. now what?

  16. oly355 says:

    @CadeSperoni play more with your pups. take her on a walk with a leash, talk to her. and if you can only have her attention with food, abuse of this, with everything. from doing serious stuff like this, or for fun tricks.
    food reward is not a ”reward” really in my opinion. it’s more like an ”encouragement” because you will encourage your dog to continue the training session. and the training session should be like, 5 to 10 mins at start =)

    Very good! I give you an B+ But, Getting in many dog’s faces is very dangerous. It is ok with a soft, sunmissive dog only. A dog that has an aggressive nature (breed) might take exception to this.

    i like your video.Thank you!!

  19. 74jrobbins says:

    @k9trainer30 never a good idea to get face to face with most dogs!

  20. stephenielane says:

    Thank you, thank you, thank you

  21. HasteKilled says:

    @74jrobbins He’s not getting in the face and he didn’t say get in their face. He’s just getting to the eye level. And if your dog would attack you just for getting down on the ground with them then maybe you need a different dog.

  22. Angels94 says:

    Very good video, I agree with getting in your dogs face if they are not paying attention to you. With my dog I trained stay slightly differently, but very smilar, and it worked quite well. I’ll adapt my method (first training stay for duration, then moving on to stay with distance, instead of teaching them so close together) for my next dog. I’m getting her soon!

    What kind of dog is supernova? So cute :D

  24. adamaris005 says:

    thank you, your vid is super helpful.

  25. biewerpuppies says:

    How old does the dog have to be to start this stay training? I am a breeder and would like to do some basic training before they leave my home. I breed German Imported Biewer Yorkie’s al a pom pon…
