Read MoreI liked how Grisha incorporated some of the challenges with Buddy into the training. e.g. when teaching the backing up heeling and Buddy sat, how to praise and encourage him, while still getting what she wanted. I especially appreciated the leash handling lesson with the client in the beginning of the session. Thank you!

Read MoreGrisha, we were surprised to find that our 63 lb, reactive, heeler-GSD-pit mix is easier to walk on a 15 ft leash than she was on a 6 ft leash. The safety tips (two hands on the leash at all times, and taking care not to let the leash loop around a hand or finger), and "slow stop" skills were especially helpful. Thank you. Our dogs enjoy their extra freedom on their longer leashes, and we've nearly eliminated arm, hand, and back injuiries related to dog walking. In addition to the skills learned in this course, we have found that a harness with front- and rear- attachment points is helpful. We use the front attachment when needed (lots of triggers abound), but with the utmost care not to injure our dog friends. Also, the "engage-disengage" game (from ASoundBeginning) in which we mark ("YES") and treat our dogs when they encounter a trigger is helping our dogs be less reactive. Thank you again! for this course and all of the great training resources you make available.

Read MoreThis was a great addition to the B.A.T series. Only the second video in, and I'm ready to get out there and start the process for progress. Grisha gave many examples of Leash Skills, Loose Leash Walking, Heeling, and Mime Pulling. Not to mention all the other additional nuggets and words of insight that were shared. To add to that, there was also a Q&A which was also very informative. Well done Grisha & Team! :-)

Read LessBefore I was a professional dog trainer, walking my dog was a struggle. Over time, I developed a way for walks to be relaxing, enriching, and fun. This 1.5 hour video is part of my Empowered Animals series and it has my best walking tips to transform the relationship with your dog.
Filmed in 2014. Includes a recording of a live Q&A from April 2021.
Suitable for professional dog trainers as well as families with dogs.
"Loose Leash Walking" means the dog walks without pulling.
"Casual Heel" means that the dog walks basically beside you, on either side, with full attention on you.
BAT Leash Skills: Use a long line safely to transition to off-leash walks.
For all dogs and puppies, but especially great for dogs who bark, lunge, growl, etc.
Choosing humane and effective dog walking gear.
Useful to watch before attending the Leash Walking 21-Day Challenge course.
Signing up for a lot of online dog training? Diamond Members get ALL webinars and courses in the school for one low rate.
90 minutes from now, your walks can be more relaxing and enjoyable.
Part 2 of the Empowered Animals DVD series, now available as streaming dog training video. Practical, humane ways to teach three walking styles: Loose Leash Walking, Heel, and the BAT Leash Skills for using a long line.
Includes a 30-minute Q&A, recorded live online.
Some dogs pull like freight trains and others lag behind. Watch practical demonstrations of each skill, in steps that are easy to learn and apply. I give several ways to teach heel and loose leash walking, so you'll have the best fit.
You'll also get PDF notes of the Powerpoint from the presentation and a quick quiz for understanding. The quiz also allows us to issue a certificate if you are a professional and need CEUs.

Read MoreI really enjoyed this video. Grisha gave examples for all the information she gave which I find very helpful when understanding the concepts. Discovering Grisha's Academy has been a true revelation for me and being part of this academy is like being part of a big learning Family where we all feel passionately about the happiness of dogs and their guardians. I would highly recommend watching this video and joining as a Diamond Member so that you can enjoy ongoing learning at a magnificent price.

Read MoreI am so happy to be a Diamond and get to learn and improve so much, thank you Grisha! Also, I don't know if this is valid but it may make sense for someone, If my dog doesn't perform as I wish I quickly ask for something that she finds easy (like a sit or something) and reward for that while reseting the brain for repeating and punishment free ;)

Read MoreThank you Grisha for all the details of teaching leash skills. But most of all thank you for helping us to understand it can be fun. I especially appreciate your patience with the human side of the equation :-). Seeing that will help me be a better teacher. One thing I wish (its kinda picky) is that in the lecture portions of the video you had used one of the Mendota leashes. The brown leash was hard to see in front of your brown shirt for the close up detail. Thanks again!

Read MoreThis course has good information that I found very helpful because it builds on what I learned in some of the other courses. The information gave more information about some of the skills that I have read about. I found the answers to some of my questions and the course clarified how to do some skills that I was not sure about. I liked the sections that showed how to use the leash handling and other skills. Sometimes videos can be more helpful than just a picture.
