If you do...then SHOW it. Isn't the camera on a tripod...just show it bc me st ppl calling a trainer need help w BARKING...FOOD AGGRESSION...REACTIONARY BITING ...
You're going to get ppl hurt...bc some dogs have profited from bad behavior. My family works w former fighting dogs n your way wont work. Your mistake is in 💬 ng dogs have HUMAN EMOTIONS. They dont. They respond to fear and food n they cant TRUST you if you cant control n foster them in a calm way.
The dog acts like he’s been delivered from a demon .night and day difference…thanks for advertising for him..🤣😂🤣😂 that’s all you are doing trouble maker.
What I really love about your videos is the fact that you always utilise ‘affirmative’ dog training without the use of, as you say, pronged collars etc.
You have the audacity to attack other excellent dog trainers and here you are admitting you can't train your own dog to recall in a fenced yard after a year??? You're a joke. Leave other trainers alone.
Look how many supporters dig daddy has over this 🍑hurt guy who Tries to bash dog daddy despite ALL of dog daddy’s supporters and clients even. How pathetic this guy is. He should read his own comment section.
These guys learn through positive reinforcement... u can train stay without even using the word until the end... u can reinforce the action without giving commands... but u do have to be dominant and the pack leader or they wont really respect ur word they are naturally agressive hece the name bully, they wanna eat, chase, mat and fight you for a rope, in no particular order... u gotta give them bones like crazy as soon as they have adult teeth... no flavoring bully breeds and pit american bulldog mixes have picky guts... too much flavoring theyll wet shit all over the place on accident... imagine having sudden diarrhea and being young they have less bladder and bowel control... too much flavoring, they wont make it to the pad let alone the yard....
Those dogs have ridiculous prey drive, u need an e collar or a prong collar with a thick and wide normal collar u put the prong under the normal collar and use a regular strap leash on the collar too so in the beginning, ur not pronging him to death, thats not the point...
I almost refused to comment absolutely click bate! The more comments the more payments. Let’s find somebody successful trash their methods and sit back, wait for the backlash and watch the money roll in. Obviously you can’t make money posting your own content
Dog Daddy is the best dog trainer and now has more subscribers get over it you have never shown yourself dealing with out of control dogs that are lunging at you trying to bite you. All the psycho mumbo jumble.
Thank you! I used your method for leash walking with my extremely active collie when he was a puppy. He walks so amazing!!! This tip alone helped so much. Now i have two collie puppies and i tuned in for a refresher and im glad to see this video! I appreciate you always providing all this great training for free! ❤
You know there are enough dogs in this world that need help. Why do you have the need to sabotage another dog trainer that's only trying to help people with their dogs like yourself. Yet you have the need to be a great big a hole and try to hurt somebody else's business. You know that's enough in this world today to get you canceled. So if I was you I would worry about my reputation instead of trying to be a hole to hurt somebody else's reputation in business. You need to go look in a mirror and put your ego in check before you lose everything you've worked so hard to get.
@@LyranSoul I didn't even know who this tool was until I saw the short that he was bad mouthing a real trainer. Lol he placates dogs... He doesn't train them? Lol the coping from his fans are just as good as muskrats
I can a lot of wisdom with ZaK teaching George to leave the baseball. I can see through his smart wisdom. When George can be disciplined enough to leave alone a baseball he is fixated on. Then George will be able to leave a lone another fixation such as playing with a child, baby or small animal also. I only wrote this as a hypothetical scenario. I do agree about changing the colour of the ball as it is easier to see blue, yellow and white over red. I enjoyed this video.
I have enjoyed all the videos on George. He is a really lovely dog, strong and so smart. I have the 2 books ordered on Amazon Au. I would love to know where George is now and what he is doing.
George is amazing dog. I love George too. He is truly disciplined and interesting. I love to know where George is now and what he is doing now. Anyone know please let me know.
You know you keep saying things like look at the dog's body language. Literally every single one of these dogs is wagging his tail and happy so I don't really know what your deal is but you seem like a jealous child
Force free training is a myth and this video is an excellent example of it. “Dog has automatic stop” after the dog was stopped by the leash. If you see how many times the leash stops or corrects the dogs movement you see the concept fail. The leash is force, a fence is force. Anything that inhibits the dogs free movement is a force- had it not been there the dog would have run off- hence a force.
Hi Zak, My dog doesn’t retrieve. He will chase a ball/toy a few times but he doesn’t bring it to me. He wants me to chase him for it. He loses interest within five minutes. The other difficulties are that he doesn’t have pre6 stalk behavior. He charges, fast. I am having much trouble with him in this area. If he sees a cat or any kind of wildlife (except birds), he will tear out of my hand and chase no matter what I do. I need this to stop. It’s dangerous and he has injured my hand several times.Any suggestions that I can try?
The fact that you trained Inertia for 2-3 years and it's looking like that, it's a bad image for you. You had all that you needed, a high driver working dog, that doesn't have serious aggression problems, but still, you couldn't make it at a level that would be expected for someone that calls himself a "dog trainer". It's either laziness, or poor understanding of dogs.
