 Welcome back to the channel guys. I hope you guys have been enjoying these videos I know me and Nathaniel have even Morgan out there doing some training on the bow and then her going through the decoys all stuff Also, that's been going on honestly. It's been a blast Kelly. I feel like student. I'm normally good But it might be just because I haven't done in a while, but it's crazy how fast they learn honestly They pick things up so fast. I remembered telling do you remember me telling you that like it's like every time you go out They learn something big you just it's crazy every time you go out You're just so impressed with them. So this video is going to be a little bit of a series of days Spread out because we're gonna start working on I think she's six months today, huh? Is it 23 weeks? So 23 weeks today, so we're like a week shy of six months, which is totally fine But now is where the work begins. We've been anticipating this and wait for this to happen You know that Daniel's been excited about it, but it's gonna be it's not just like obedience training now It's this is where the work begins. So today is the first day day one of Heal training. Let's go ahead and get started. All right guys, so we're gonna start with the heel training today We're not gonna do nothing crazy. We're just gonna do Straight lines, okay with a turn in it and I got all these links in the description below Okay, but this is a 30-foot floating check cord that we've been using from the very get-go and Tell how much you did there Nathaniel on it. Well, I put the knot in it towards When I put it on her neck it stays tore it won't come off all the way and just give a bunch of slack And then she'll be stepping on it and yeah, just perfect on her neck So I'll talk more about what we're gonna do But just make sure let me zoom in on that and see how he just kind of made a knot are you gonna be able to get that out? Yeah, it comes out really okay, because at some point guys You will have to take that out when she actually grows and stuff, but she looks like she's ready her towels wagon. You ready? Okay, he's gonna end up taking her collar off everything off her neck Put that on and then we're gonna start just go right here And he's just gonna go straight lines back and forth with her and as you're doing it you've watched the videos, right? Yes with Chris Aiken do you understand everything he pretty much said yeah, okay? So I'm not gonna say nothing it really is yeah I'll kind of explain as he's getting her ready as he's walking with her if she gets out of line Or is trying to veer off left or right? He's gonna check her with this check for right He's gonna check it kind of pop her and with that slack in there on her Check for it's gonna leave a little bit of slack She's gonna be walking and if she's like starting to veer off or not staying in line with him at healing He's gonna pop it like pop her to remind her. Hey, this is what you're supposed to do He's gonna keep her basically right out as you know ankles basically in calves right there by her Just like you would and when he does that he's gonna say heal so he'll pop it It's a heel if she gets out of line now Chris Aiken says when she's doing good to say good girl good girl So she's getting the point through her head You know that she she is doing good So I'll kind of talk through it as we go But again, I'm not I'll try not do so much talking once we get going because after this Then we're gonna do outside circles inside circles figure eight So we're gonna make it start making it tough on her there you go guys see how much slack isn't it? But it's not gonna fall off her neck This is totally fresh guys They'll chew at it nip at it. They'll figure it out though. Okay, you remember Nathaniel though Hold on and tell her sit remember Are you to say heel when you pop her say heel? But don't say it unless if she's doing good say good girl good girl, you know, oh one more thing guys Which foot do you start off on? Always the left if you have your dog on your left side, you got to start with your left foot every time this is huge Very very important Always start out with your left foot when you start to heal We'll probably see a little chaos here for a minute, but it's okay because See what Nathaniel just did there He kind of brought his right foot around the back and kind of tapped her on the rear That's another method that Chris uses because he really one night when when you stop they should sit right away Okay, well now stop her saying There she did that good good girl okay now Between here and there let's do to stop and sit you know what I mean Okay, make sure you stop first before you say sit that was good. See I was good Okay, he's been doing outside circles, which is totally fine meaning she's on the outside in the turn He's gonna do some on the inside and what that will do is help kind of him check her with his leg So she's kind of getting the hint like okay We're turning because it's it's tricky up first, but she'll get it. She's already picking it up fast So let's go ahead and try that You don't got to feel forced to walk fast or anything just walk which I know you already walk fast anyways Nathaniel But gives her time to think a little bit more Good. That's good. All right guys. We're on day three. So we started on a Thursday Nathaniel worked with her a couple more times He worked with her Friday and today's Saturday and so we're now we're gonna amp it up a little bit We're gonna do some sit stay. We're gonna do which sit is the same word So you don't say stay he's gonna do straight lines real quick and work with her Which she's already doing way better and then we're gonna throw in some outside circles and inside circles So I'm doing some crazier stuff Maybe some loops She's definitely progressed Since two days ago She's doing really good Get her to do it quick pop that collar pop it till she sits See she's doing good Another another 10 to 15 days. She'll be Right on top of him. She's actually doing really good for her third day She's doing good case it throws it in there Get it quick. You got to make that snappy. So now what we're gonna do is integrate sit stay Which again sit is the only word to use people use different words Someone asked the other day why we use kennel for everything instead of like place But Chris that's what Chris Aiken teaches and the thing with that is as well the less words to me That I can say in my book of words is the better and less confusing for the dog because Kennel means into or onto so it covers everything jump on the back of your truck bed going inside their dog kennel Going on the dog stand. It's all the same thing. It may not to us is like well, it's it's a You know dog stand why not say place or whatever? Well, it doesn't matter because that word kennel means into or onto so We're gonna do right now We're gonna do sit stay and what Nathaniel is gonna do every time you step off on for a hill You're gonna take your left foot and step off with your left foot when you're healing But for sit stay and the reason I'm saying stay meaning that's where you want the dog to stay You don't say stay. You just say sit. It's a redundant word if you say stay, but he now he's gonna swing and pivot in front of her with his right foot and Putting his hand in her face and saying sit and then he's gonna back up and have her do here So go ahead No, that's okay Don't don't move to her Nathaniel get her to come to you. Okay, okay? Just we work that work that call if you got a swing around a little bit Go ahead There you again. We we type we put this little knot there so it doesn't fall off But you can put pressure you put pressure it gets their attention, right? It's not hurting. I mean I'm gonna step in front say sit She's losing attention a little bit. That's okay Okay, sit Grab the rope with my left hands and I'm gonna step back with my left that Left foot as I say here here Sit she's losing attention to Here Sit Just swing them out a little while sit here Sit sit because once we're done Once we get done with this we can get rid of this like in another month month or two Get rid of this and just do equal and I won't have to say a single word besides hand motions and Gestures with my hands or feet feel You All right day nine with Kelly she's officially over six months old she was six months old four days ago five days ago, so They've been working on Sit stay and heal for about nine days now So we're gonna get started Nathaniel has been telling me that she's kind of been pulling the old the I'm tired You know stunt when they're training and that's what's gonna happen You're gonna notice when you start working on some of this stuff. They're gonna act like they're tired They're gonna lay down That's just them basically trying to see what they can get away with and being kind of a little you know Teenager or whatever no offense teenagers Anyways, so we're gonna get started. Let's see the progress. She's made she's definitely doing a way better way better It's 90s of work Like I said, you already see her just starting to yawn and starting to act as interested and hasn't been going in two minutes Just gotta push through that But guys don't make your training sessions any longer than five to ten minutes You can do multiple a day. Just don't go over that one session 15 at the max Chris says All right guys, this is the final Section of this video Kelly will be she'll be seven months But this is gonna be the end of this video this session right here So I've showed you kind of progressive over time how much her and Nathaniel have worked on it how good she's gotten that sit stay here and He'll they've done been doing great every time I come out here There's major progress and just help where I can but Nathaniel has been doing a great job been watching those Chris Aiken videos and Give a thumbs up if you guys are enjoying this video share it around, but let's go ahead Let's let's see him work right now and see how they're doing outside circles are the hardest ones to do Because they can she's doing really good That's good Way better than last time Notice how he puts his hand out in front of her says here puts his hand out. She comes in Here tells wagon She's in good spirits. That's one of the things Chris says. You got to keep them Good spirits when you're training. She's doing really good on you. I was good. I was good. She's doing good I've just been feeding the same because she's 55 pounds yet or not Guys we're going off the chart on the you can in the Nathaniel switched her over to the the puppy blend for the large breed and This does have Glute co-samina and can joint it as well and then we're going off this chart in the back And what was the last weight you got off her I got So as a weaker to go huh and her coat looks really good and she's got those love handles are gone She don't look like Uncle Tyus One thing I'm going to throw in here guys with the the dog food in the right dog food If you live in town or in the city and you have a small yard You might not notice it like they live out here in the country But when you feed him that cheap stuff and I'm not putting any other brand down But if you in the cheap stuff though, they go the bathroom probably two to three times more than I do with this good stuff Part of that is is like the difference between me and you eating the Taco Bell Versus a steak in a baked potato The nutric the nutrition is not there. I'm not saying you can you was the only good brand the reason I like it is Labs are known to get arthritis when they get older So if you got that Glute co-samina and can joint in it, which is good for joints you can Help eliminate that and to be honest with you on my podcast We have a podcast called the MVM show we talked about this with dog trainers and stuff and one of the things they talked about was My friend had a testimony on there He had it like a eight or ten year old dog lab that could hardly walk because of arthritis I was telling about you canuba and he said I'm gonna try that out It wasn't even a month later. He had been feeding this old dog old lab that couldn't walk couldn't go up the stairs fed him this food and For about a month and he sent me a video of that dog same dog Running up the stairs running through the house like there was nothing even wrong with it So that was just proof enough to me that what I'm doing is right. So hole in all Nathaniel. How do you how are you feeling about? I think you're doing pretty good. I'm having a blast doing it. Yeah, so next after this is I know they've ordered the E-caller and We I just bought Rocky another one because he's had his for four years and it was the other one bro I end up getting broke because I don't got got smashed But I ordered I originally had a sport dog 825. So I ordered a sport dog 425 X and that's what they got the same one. So they have it in black orange and camo So that is going to be the next video. We're gonna go over the E-caller training Some people don't like it. Some people don't agree with it But I believe in it a hundred percent and we'll go over that in that video about why You know a lot of most trainers use the colors. Thanks for watching guys and we'll see you on the next one
