Great video! I'd love to see a video on your position on dominance. There are many trainers who use the clicker who still insist on spreading the dominance theory with clients. We know that Dr David Mech, the original wolf researcher who originated the dominance theory in the 1960's has publically retracted his theory that (wild) wolves live in a dominance-based society.
@supernaturalbc2009 I personally do not believe in the dominance theory. I do not have a problem with my dogs going out first, but in some cases where dogs do dash out and it is dangerous because of where they live (busy street, canyon, freeway's), then I show these owners how to build more value for being inside and waiting for the human to release them to go outside. Hope that helps! Pam
@zeroghostlyisdead the point of the clicker is to mark a moment as being right. The best way I've heard to describe it is like taking a picture of what the behavior you want looks like. So if you're clicker training the dog to sit, the moment your dog's butt hits the ground, you click.
You have to condition him that the click means a treat, though - every single time. I've clicked my dog on accident and she still gets a treat. So any time your pup hears the click, he knows food is coming.
I know the feeling, I have been too busy to really watch all my friends videos too! I will be happy when Spring Break is here and I can relax a little! Thank you for forwarding this video!
I love the info to the right! I also completely agree. You also get five stars for grammar and spellling! PLEASE keep up the good work and all the info. There is so much to learn and many people, after learning, say they had not realized it until they were taught. You do a great job, as does Kikopup! THANK YOU! Ann
He was so calm in the end and knew exactly what to do! Love Positive Reinforcement! It saves lives!!! :) You're such a great person and trainer for sharing this with people around the world here! 5*s!
Wow Pam, another fantastic video! It's a great way of preventing your dog to not 'zoom' out when the door is open. Positive reinforcement really is like magic. Definitely a fav and 5*s!
I was going to mkae this same video! It really workjs well if you take a multi-pronged approach. Most door dashers need more exercise. Add that to spending time in the yard outside the door with the owner (on a long line), and this strengthens the behavior even more.
That was awesome! Had to fav it. I LOVED how calm Jacob became when he learned that the open door doesn't mean dash out like a mad man! Well done! Another great video example of how if you don;t like what your dog is doing now, just teach your dog what you WANT them to do!!!!
So many of our friends have door dashing dogs, and it's really sad that they don't even bother to train them. I'm sure that this video'll change their point of view! Thank you very much for posting this!

Great video Pam! I wish I knew of this exercise when BIlly had a bad habit of door dashing... and opening doors for himself!

Great idea to have a list of reasons why this is a good idea! It really is more than safety (which is a biggy). Love the 'Have a party' phrase:)
