Teaching LEAVE IT and IMPULSE CONTROL ( The EASY Way )

I’ve found myself an accidental owner of a 7 month old cattle dog and I’m so grateful to have found you and Cowboy. The history and knowledge you have has really helped us. Murphy definitely wants to kill wheels on trash cans and lawn mowers. 😬

I agree, if you have a cattle dog, as an owner you need to absolutely “nip” everything in the bud, no slacking allowed! They will overtake and always try and run the show if allowed.😉

I’m so pleased that my blues stopped nipping at my heels as they did alot as puppies. It just fell away . Wheelbarrows yes, still. Bicycle rides yes, nipping at the wheels starting out then they get into the sprint and keep their sprinting focus. Love my blues.

Background. Productive !!!

Yes Wallace likes to go for the wheels of the rubbish bin…esp when I’m wheeling it out…not viscous but very excited..Wal is 10 months old..thanks for yr vids very helpful..

YES my daughters blue heeler loves to chase tires!! Kinda freaked us out lol. She has had her only a couple weeks! Loving your channel!!

Yeah biting tires and craziness, love it

Thank you for the amazing video And Thank for teaching the important of leave it

Thanks for the awesome video! Cowboy is simply stunning 😍 I've got a Belgian Malinois, 4 year old male. Going through life with a working dog by your side is just an absolutely incredible journey. (I'd LOVE to get your supplements! Such a pity you guys are so far away...I'm in South Africa. But I'm really excited that you guys have international shipping, so maybe one day...)

Yes, back in the early nineties we had a blue cattle dog and it would attack any type of wheel, it would try to attack car, and bike tryes and even the wheels on the lawn mower, it would bite the front wheel and drag the mower across the yard. It could also play soccer with a soccer ball

Yes, yes, yes!! Thank you. Loved the idea of treats on his leg! Yes on trash can tires, though it is random. Will try to get our deer head. Working on leave it corrections on tires. I do think using leave it when he sees other dogs actually sets him off worse. Best video yet in talking through my current issues. Need the mountain bike tire video! Lol. Keep em coming!

nice job.

I’m a new sub and I’m binge watching your videos. Need all the help I can get with my Blue Heeler Bandit.

My rescue cattle dog/Shep mix is afraid of cars. She is obsessed with balls, geckos, lizards and cats. She will not return balls even with treats. She's great with sit and stay even if other dogs are passing by. Very food driven. She's 13 now so not as crazy active as your pup.

What is a good hearding ball . Good information and techniques that are helpful.

Great video Jack... "The leave it!" command is of THE most commands you dog needs to know. I taught my female cattle dog this from the day I rescued her... over here in Sydney Australia there was a time when someone ( probably a dog hater who never had pets as a kid cause his parents didn't) decided to bait the local dog area with poisoned meat. consequently a few dogs had to get rushed to the vet> I am always watching my dog when she gets too excited smelling things....love Cowboy 👍

OMGosh, I do the same thing with my cattledog with the treats on their legs in the down position. 😄. When I do that she can't look at the treats she always turns her head away and I see that Cowboy did that a little bit too.

Mine does same thing

I've noticed people often compare the blue heeler to a golden retriever to drive the point of how different they are. So I was wondering if anyone has any tips for my new 9 week old pup I picked up from a shelter. She is a blue heeler and golden retriever mix. I've watched the 5 reason why not to get a blue heeler and why to get one so I can try to understand what I need to prepare for now but if any one has any tips for this kind of mix id be grateful. Ive owned golden retrievers in the past but this is the first blue heeler even tho she's a mix. 😅

The last ACD I had was a tire biter and I never thought f it as a herding thing. I finally took the tires off an o!d trash can and gave them to her. M my present ACD IS FAR worse attacking anything with wheels. Will start the leave it command on her but she is so fast at the sneak attack.
