Dispelling the myth that a dog trained without the use of physical and psychological intimidation won’t listen if he is chasing prey. What is not shown in this video is that Splash only chases prey on cue, she never does it without being cued- as I have put chasing prey under stimulus control. All my dogs are only trained using Progressive Reinforcement Training.

I really need to know how to teach my BC to not want to herd everything. She doesn’t focus on me when she’s in that mode. I’ve tried using clicker training with treats. Nothing has worked so far.

Hi Emily,
I’ve been watching your videos as a guide for training my dogs, but I have a Chihuahua that my little sister rescued from an abusive home. She is extremely nervous about everything, even when all I’m doing is feeding her. How can I train her to be less nervous if it is even possible. I want to be able to teach her a thing or two before I go away for the summer. Thanks in advance

Thanks for the demo Emily!
thanks for your many videos, they are becoming my bible! :p
I have also been using the positive reinforcement method with my 5yr old… Proves it can work on older dogs! When living with my parents they taught my whippet X to chase birds… Now he only will do it on cue, like splash

A tutorial would be great because my dog loves chasing my cats… it would help if I was home more to fix the problem…

I would love to have a tutorial on how to stop my dog from chasing and eating animals. She has eaten her share of rodents(even while on a leash just by leaping into tall grass and catching them).

@allmeansall This is so true…and frustrating….in the horse world also…but I’m pleased to see a trend starting towards really using less force and domination. There are too many methods that talk their way around it and make the method sound less forceful than it is….love Kikopup! I use the methods on my dog and sometimes my horse too LOL

Thank you for this short clip Emily. I have been having a “debate” online about this, and I am so glad someone is videoing it! The arguments for force and punishment are about driving me crazy. I need to lurk and not get involved because the mo9re I say, the more those trainers defend their pop and shock methods. It’s so frustrating!

It’s all about relationship and excellent recall!
I have an Aussie/BC cross and I can call him off of a squirrel as he’s madly barking and boucing at it while it taunts him in the tree. Training does not have to be harsh, you just need the right mental tools!!!

@xkoonzix Though I’m not Kikopup. The first command you should teach is “Sit” and “Leave It”. Sit because it can also double as a means of getting the dog to stop running ahead or walking away. Leave it because when walking a puppy they will often grab any and everything around them. This will allow you to take away bad stuff he/she shouldn’t have.
