Getting a harness for the dogs would make it safer and easier during your walking session ❤ so happy you kepted Brucie 🥰

Welcome home, Bruce!!! 🐩 ❤️❤️❤️🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

Bruce is a beautiful dog 🐕 😍 ❤️! Love the nature walk 🚶‍♂️ 😊❤

Such a beautiful property for walking your pooches!!! Bruce is a wonderful addition to the family!!! 🥰❤️❤️❤️🎶🎶🎶🌺🌻🌸🏡🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

(60+years dog trainer here) Harnesses were created to assist the dog to pull with greater comfort. If you want to teach Bruce to not pull on the leash, a prong collar works best. You don't allow the leash to get tight, rather you give tugs just hard enough to get the dog to back off and not pull on you.

Anthony you have your hands full with Bruce!

Roxanne and Anthony I'm glad you took him in as a part of your family!! He's a handsome dog!! I was wondering about him!! Sorry for posting late!! My Dad passed away earlier today!! he was 89 years old and retired from Air Force!! Thanks for sharing!! Sending blessings!! ❤ Mamma Carolyn

I love Bruce he is asome.....love him

Just a tip when Bruce starts pulling stop and make him come back by your side ,Also shorten up the leash so he walks right beside you

Bruce and all the animals are lucky to be part of your family!

Have a vet or shelter check for a micro chip on Bruce. If you get a harness, you'd have to get an anti-pull one. A harness allows them to use full force to pull like sled dogs. Your better option may be a gentle leader or have off leash with remote training collar.

Bruce is going to twist your back. Wear a brace 🐜

Good morning 🌞 Good luck with this dog - hope doesn't hurt your back Anthony 😉 Happy Easter 🙏🌷🪻

Good morning Rox and Ant, enjoy your day!! 👍👍❤️❤️🇨🇦

One good pull and I hope he doesn't damage your back prayers for you

Hi Guys. I think a harness is a great idea. Just a thought and I'm sure you have already thought of it but you might want to get a blaze orange . That way you can see him easier in the thick woods and great for when it is hunting season. I love the porch and the window covers awesome addition. Take care and see you here soon. JB

Ghost is jealous too!!! What's up dad, I need all the loving!!!

Keep leash short..they love to RUN & BE FREE😂

I love You Bruce ❤

Have you taken Bruce to a vet to see if he is chipped. Would help find the owner if there is one. Good luck✌️🇺🇸

It is so so Beautiful where you live!!! I think Bruce is going to be a Great Dog!!! Once he is trained!!! I'm glad that you kept him!!! God Bless Us All!!!

I laughed at Bruce barking and he is a strong bruser. So happy yall adopted him and not just let him roam . Someone lost a fine hound

Bruce is a beautiful dog and I love his howl as long as it isn't in the middle of the night. LOL God Bless from your Canadian friend.

Have a great day guy's,take care and God Bless!!!❤😊

I can say one thing and that’s Anthony has his work cut out for him training Bruce and I hope the pulling doesn’t hurt his back

Love the name Bruce! ❤

i think what your doing with bruce is great keep doing i wish there people like you two i have watch you since day one it sets me up fore the day take care tommy scotland

The most important command to teach a hound is leave it.

Definitely need harnesses for walking the dogs helps stop them from pulling so much. ❤

I had thought about your day lilies and never saw them. I am so pleased that survived and thrived. In a couple of years you will have a walkway of color.

When My family did obedience training with our dogs.. we always used pronged collars that we learned as kids in our training of our dogs to Heal, sit, come, stay, All using the collar.. quick jerks and starts and stops for at least half an hour a day alone with the dog. The collar releases right away.. it's just a quick jerk and release. They learn very quickly. and we also used only praise as a reward. Once the dog learns we would do training about 2-3 times a week, but healing and start and stops and stays and comes daily. These dogs were in dog shows and won tons of trophies.. so it does work.

Years ago I raised Treeing Walkers here. I saw MANY breeders kill their hunting stock, or dump them, if they had "liar mouth" (barking to say they were "on" something, and nothing was there). Please do ALWAYS use caution when he is around your cats. It can go bad for the cats so fast and out of the clear blue.

Try to keep the leash short when you walk Bruce. 😊

I would like to see you building a small bridge across the stream, maby with the rocks and some wood for the pathway just a suggestion for a new project in the future ! ❤❤❤love your new Dog

I’ve seen people with stress fractures in hands & arms. If dog is persistently pulling attach your lead to a belt round your waist. It is much better for your hands, arms & shoulders. Even a body harness attached to your waist is fine. God Bless and all my Love from Ellen Queensland, Australia 🇦🇺

I cured my cattle dog of pulling on the leash by using a gentle leader. It pulls their muzzle down and to the side when they pull and they learn to let you lead them instead of them leading you.

Another great video. Loving the property and the great walks y'all get to take. I know the dogs enjoy it and so do the cats. I like that Roxanne mystical woods. Anthony your very good at training Bruce. Well Bruce let's you know he's close by. That's a hound for you. ❤❤

A beep collar work’s great 👍 gets his attention. A training tool.

Beautiful Blue Tick hound dog. Used for hunting racoons. My dad had Redbone Hounds and Blue Tick hounds when I was a child. Daddy hunted Racoons for hides back in the day when pelts were profitable. I'm 74 now and remember it well. He cooked the racoons in a big cast iron wash pot in the back yard with pig shorts.. a feed for pigs, and he fed the dogs in long wooded food troughs. May be a Tennessee walker..but more likely a Blue Tick hound. Big eaters..😂 He's beautiful!!!.

Can’t wait to see the progress with Bruce in a month I can see your a great dog trainer Why? How? Because you train with your heart It really does make a difference 😊❤

MY DOG LOVED MY CATS WHEN THEY WERE INDOORS, BUT OUTSIDE THE CHASE WAS ON

So cool you’re keeping Bruce!

A harness is better than a collar, at least with the pullers. The collars can damage the throat area where we have to pull so hard!!!!!

Good morning RoxAnna and Anthony, and animal's, I'm putting my plants and flower on my patio and yard, I'm loving it, as Spring, is my favorite time if year.So excited to get back out side again. I love everything that you two have done to your property, you are a great Team, in all that you do.We sure could us some of the rain that you all got, here in N - E Ok. Down south received the same storms as you all did, But., not us. Please stay safe, and keep on smileing, Keep the Faith,God 's blessings and much love.Wanda In Ok Love your new Spring flowers, Roxann

Just a suggestion, use a harness on both those dogs if they pull. That works really well❤

I had a hard time at walking my Ginger as I don't know who was walking who. I would be so tired when I got home. Having a dog is a loving experience. Enjoyed watching and thanks.

Yes I saw it and you did a awesome job on the deck and I was curious about the post too

Anthony you trimmed your beard looks great!❤ I watched the video on the steps they look great! Your yard is very neat! Great planning on keeping things organized while you do your projects.❤❤

There’s a harness made to stop the dog from pulling.i got one for my dog because I was afraid it could injure her throat, it stopped her fairly quickly.

Be careful of your back Anthony.

As hard as Bruce is pulling on leash he can do permanent damage to this throat from the collar. Get his harness as soon as you can❤❤

Who's walking who ? 😊 I'm sure it'll all work out 😊 Wishing you the best

You should check in town to see if anyone is missing a hound dog. Also have him get a vet check.

A waist walker works great for dogs that like to pull. It's so much easier on ones arms.

When we had a German Shepherd years ago she used to pull me around on walks well I have asthma so it wasn't very good I had to only let my then husband take her. So he paid to let her go to doggy school, they taught us quite a lot. The 2 main things they taught was use a harness which I know you said your getting but also if they pull on walks pull back on the lead and say heel. It worked and I could finally take her walks myself. Xx

My 3 dogs keep me going. They get me out of my recliner several times a day. ❤❤

a blueticj hound is a smart dig and a very affectnant

Mishone's great new mission in life will be to tease Bruce. She will shadow him and drive him crazy.

Good luck with the dogs on your walk

Awesome video God Bless you and your family Amen

Rox, put you some fairies in the mystical forest!!!!

Have yall ever thought about stocking that pond? Could also be stocked and then there’s an extra food source 😊

Lillian is the bomb!!!!!!

With the leash attached to collar, lay leash down the middle of back to about past the rib cage. Run leash under belly and up to back and under leash. This tightens up on them if they pull hard and they might give you a few farts but will quit pulling so hard. Try it.😁😁😁💕

I think Bruce , was re-gifted, bless his heart ,he is a hand full. It's a good thing y'all are big animal lovers. Not just anybody could handle him . He is a lucky boy ! Keep up the good work !

I wanted to leave a comment about the porch you are building, I was wondering if you thought about painting the lattice black to match the underlayment of the shed. I think it would be neat to tie in the porch to house and lattice on fence and posts and rails of fence it will make your property look modern country. Just a thought.

Hey guys, y’all probably won’t like what I’m about to say but, here goes. The fella before me @Greyfyre…. Is right! My Husband was A.F. Animal Behavior Specialist at Lackland A.F.B., San Antonio, Tx. & I raised Toy Poodles ( which he called my babies pretend dogs) , & I listened to him for over 50 years. My Husband used choke chair collar, & before you say (I,m not doing that to my do)…. It’s the chain making noise that will get your dogs attention. Hold the lead w/ one hand rolled around your hand. With the other hand - your holding the leash closer to to dogs head Bruce or Ghost & w/ a quick jerk of the choke chain & a very FIRM NO your Fur Baby will be ready to please. Repetition is key, don’t give up. You must be firm. If you have any more questions tell me on Rox & Ant & I’ll get you my number. I told Mike DD5 about this somewhat but didn’t follow thru, maybe you could pass this on. There is a special way to put the chock collar on also. Ask the people you buy it from to demonstrate. Hope this helps.

🤗❤❤✌

I never let my dogs when I trained them have that much leash. They walked right beside me then I gave them more leash

Try a sprenger prong collar. It’s the only thing that stops my Belgian Malinois from pulling on walks.

Great walk!

Hounds tend to chase Roccoons up the trees & they also go for Bobcats but if the Roccoons get in a lake they will drawn the dogs...my dad had like 10 hound dogs & he trained them all took work but he did it...but this was years ago no longer have my dad he passed away so the dogs were given to he's friends who also went hunting with my dad but they passed away to May they rest in peace,♥️🙏

👍👍👍 youve got your hands full with that dog,lol,they cant help but track. As for walking him,if you bring the leash under him and back through itself,he wont pull because it'll tighten up on his abdomen. Best of luck with him,he gets that nose on to something,he'll be off to the races.👍👍👍

OMG , Yall are gonna be sooo sore ! There must be some kind of dog training tip to control pulling - he's so strong. 😊

Good Morning guys, although as I watch it's 2:30pm here! LOL I had some things to do this am and grocery store. Home now, with more house work. I see you have Bruce on a leash. Maybe a harness leash would make it easier to handle him. Being in the yard, or woods he might be harder to control, he is a hunting breed, so he's always searching for the next find. Just as I said this, you said you needed a full body harness. Great minds think alike! LOL He will learn, might just take time. Yeah, I'm sure Ghost is jealous or wondering what the heck? My cats are always jealous of the attention you give the other ones. Well guys have an awesome day! Maybe next time you should leave the cats as home. LOL Listen at that howl! LOL

Roxane and Anthony you may want to try the Gentle lead color on him I use it on my Husky and my lab and once it’s on they automatically stop pulling it’s the only way I can walk them because they are both to strong for me. It looks like it would hurt but it don’t is the same as when momma would pick them up by neck to move them place to place. Look into maybe it’s an alternative because sometime the harness on pull dogs will encourage them at least my dogs lol. He’s a beautiful hunting dog you can definitely hunt rabbit and squirrels now ! He may like your bunnies also. To pull more like Husky’s are ment to pull and harness means pull for a Husky Can’t wait to see everyone soon :) and hang out with your momma .

hi guys

hi there, one thing i have seen people do to train dogs like bruce is to make them be like 2 kind off dogs, one is when they are at home then they are "regular" dog. the second one is when they do a specific task then they become a "working" dog. so like when you put the harness on for bruce then he know he is going to "work" but when he do not have the harness on then he is a "regular" one. that could prevent him to be in "working" mode all the time and it could become less stressful for him and you. just a thought

I the name Bruce. Fits him😊

I see you still have the stumps at the edge of the pond, i assume the plan is to eventually to remove them?

Have you made a Vet appointment yet for Bruce? When he pulls stop and change directions -

Anthony if you put on a body harness he will be able to pull more! Believe me it just makes it easier for them. He is a great dog and very lucky to have found you both ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Bruce sounds like a seal, 🦭 so cute.

🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾

Have you had him checked for a chip?

My too Roxanne going indo my shopping and go I in much shopping I hurt of course I live alone ❤❤ I go work and get my day done I really go home

While harnesses have a tendency to make a dog pull more. An acquaintance of my fosters Huskies and to alleviate the pulling she got a martingale harness. She says it has helped immensely. I do also believe in prong collars if used correctly.

Good Afternoon Ant n Rox Anthony has Bruce seen a squirrel yet I don't think anyone be able to hold him back he looks very strong Bruce will deft let you know if anything in your yard

👍

Enjoyed watching!

Harness for Bruce

Who leading who ?...lol...hugs

Hi guys! Love seeing all the pets! Bruce just has to adapt to your way of life which being a hunting dog may be a little more difficult. I would suggest that when he wants to do something that he’s not allowed to that you tell him NO!! Sharply. Tug him back some with the leash and repeat saying NO Bruce. He should know what that word means. Even practicing in the yard with him. He especially needs to learn not to pull on the leash which I’m sure you know. Good luck with Mr. Bruce he has a lot to learn about obeying you. Have a wonderful day!! 💜

Good Morning 😃

And you will have twice as many lilies next year.

Hello Hello, Doc said to get off my butt and get to movin, please don't think I have abandoned you all.

I remember years ago, my husband had a dog like brute. His name was snoopy and we never did get him trained to walk well on a leash,

Keep the leash short and walk beside you

Use. Caesar Millans way to control Bruce.

Hi Anthony and Roxanne, please don't take this wrong please I'm not being negative towards you guys, I'm just being honest. Please get your dogs some harnesses for them. I'm a vet tech and I do animal rescue have been doing both for over 28 years. The collars are so dangerous. You don't have to take my word google it. We see so many dogs come in on collars with collapse trachea from the collars pulling. It is sad to watch a pet die from gasping for breath,unable to eat or swallow. All it takes is one hard pull on the throat to damage the trachea. We tell everyone that comes in to please get a harnesse and not collars. The new pointer (they pull hard) is one of the most We see cause people put the on wire lines and hold them before releasing in a hunt. I know you guys love your animals and care about them. I don't want anyone to go through heartbreak. Please if you don't believe me look it up. Hugs,loves and prayers. ❤
