It's nice to see someone so in tune with a dog's body language. So many fights start because people are not watching their dogs and looking for the signs. Great job!
Dog owners are what has ruined dogs and it gets worse and worse every year. For some obnoxious reason people don’t think behavioral training is absolutely mandatory for every single breathing dog! Doesn’t matter the breed,size,age,personality. Every single dog needs to be trained. Over 4.5 million people are attacked by dogs a year. And the number keeps going up and up. They’re the #1 killers of humans besides other humans… that’s gotta stop. I mean there’s people that genuinely think dogs smile when they’re panting….ugh lol
@@xobelladonna2443 "#1 killer of humans besides other humans" So would that make them the 3rd? Mosquito is by far the #1 animal that kills humans, even more than humans
oh my god, the way ronin stepped back from the fight and showed many warning signs prove how much effort and talent went into his training. truly amazing, well done!!
I checked this book ru-vid.comUgkxSw1k29V8f0aNwyGI6qRGYJc3E4Y4Eoxy out at the library - read it cover to cover - and then decided to purchase it, so i can refer to it as needed. This provides additional ways to train in addition to the two obedience classes my sicx month old belgian malinois has already attended. Despite having dogs my whole life, i have been voraiciously reading dog training and psychology books lately given my little "maligator" has a mind of her own (extremely smart but obstinate) , and this one ranks among the best.
People need to notice way sooner that their dog is about to start a fight. Gave many obvious warning signs. I would of been extremely upset at pittys owner and kicked him out myself
I swear so many owners need to get to know their dogs a lot better. I work at a dog daycare and one night we were promoting our business at a local indoor dog park, where one dog started 4 or 5 full on dog fights before it’s owner finally took it home 🤦♀️ If my dog ever started a single fight at a dog park, I’d take her home and try again another day
@@katiea2228 sounds like the problem dog didn't get enough exposure to other dogs/ time in the park as a pup or really bad character, most likely the former. So frustrating to see, some people really need to get it together when they get a new dog.
This is why pits get bad reputations because 9/10 of the time they end up with a shitty/ghetto/low financially stable owners with small yards and apartments where a dog as such should not be. Pittbulls are not hard to get for cheap
I would love a Belgian for companion and protection. But I’m disabled, and couldn’t provide him the physical activity, and need for a job that she (it would of course be a she!)😨
If you're at a dog park and you see a Bull breed, a fighting breed, I suggest you just leave. It's not worth it and people can screech all they want but the data doesn't lie and stereotypes exist for a reason. Not everyone should be allowed to own a dog and most people shouldn't be allowed to own a fighting or a working dog. Period.
I was at the dog park with the little woman and our great Shepherd. He's very well socialized, athletic, patient and great with kids. He's non-aggressive. So in snuck a 20 something girl with a scarred up intact male pit. I usually leave when I see one of them. In this case she told me she rescued him because he was to be euthanized the following day. My dog ran up to me and this pit tried repeatedly to latch onto my pooch. She said he always done that and I told her it was an immediate sign of aggressiveness and I asked her to leave. This dogs focus was to hurt another dog but she refused to remove the vial pit...As we were closing the gate behind us the pit latched on to an elderly husky and wouldn't let go. It began shaking and blood was flowing from the Husky as it's owner tried to free it. The girl owner of the pit was hysterical, she didn't want her dog hurt. Cops showed up and got the damn thing to release....it was a big affair..people should not own the type of dog that is beyond their experience..
Owner of 2 brother rotties been showing up at a near dog park for a couple months, ignoring the fact they walk him and often manage to escape from the car and rush at the gate, whenever he arrives basically all males have to leave 'cause he's completely fucking clueless. Never corrects them, 100% never contacted a trainer, he's just a liability. As much as I love rotties to death, when they turn out like this they are the definition of danger.
I had the exact same situation 3 yrs ago - my intact 9 yr old mal was attacked by a pit bull at the dog park. The fight was serious. The owner of the pit just stood there within 10 ft watching. I, on the other hand, grabbed my leather leash & promptly began beating his dog. My guy was a senior citizen, did nothing to provoke this & I was worried about him getting hurt. Pit finally backed off & owner grabbed him & left. The other people at the park said that this guy was encouraging his pittie to fight with the other dogs the whole time he was there.
The owner of that Pit doesn't deserve to have him. I hate hearing stories like this because it gives the animals a bad name when the reality is, their owner failed them. Yes Pits are beautiful and powerful but they are still animals that deserve to live a quality loving life. They are different than most dogs and have to be trained accordingly. Unfortunately many people get them for all the wrong reasons and these are the types of problems that are the result
Some pit owners deep down want to see their dog in action. That why he was just standing there. He never seen a pit fight in person, so he wanted that. It’s said but some ppl are animals themselves. I would kicked the crap out that pit too
I had similar situation but I went after owner after dogs were put up. I terrified the older man by calling police and giving them his license plate and reporting that elderly man who has dementia is driving his car on wrong side of road. He got detained then he had 24 hour mental health evaluation at hospital . This not a joke and true story. This works to if you have problems with elderly people .
"That guy was a butthole, huh, dad? Hey, I found a ball! Look dad, a ball!" Ronin's a good boi, well-tempered and friendly. Glad everything turned out alright! 😁
In many cases, dogs are a lot smarter than people. Many years ago, Jack was in his back yard digging up a pipe to repair. His large black lab was sitting there watching. A stranger drove up into a neighbor's driveway with a german sheppard. The sheppard spotted Daisy and started aggressively barking. The sheiss kopf laughed and let the sheppard out. It sprinted towards Daisy and leapt at her. Jack was out out the hole with his shovel in a flash. While the sheppard was in mid air, Daisy stood up, raised her head and opened her mouth. The sheppard came down with its throat in Daisy's mouth. She clamped down and tore the sheppard's throat out. It died instantly. The sheiss kopf started screaming at Jack about Daisy being a vicious dog and that he was going to pay for the sheppard. His buddy was a sergeant with the police force and would see to it. Jack asked who the sergeant was and then informed the sheiss kopf that he was under arrest. Jack was a lieutenant at the time. As a kid who played with Daisy, I had a lot of new respect for her.
@@kiuk_kiksShe was normally a very sweet dog but, she probably thought that it was going to go after her Daddy(Jack). The great thing about most dogs is they will give their all to protect their family. We had Newfies. They were big cuddly lap dogs(in their minds) until they perceived a threat. They were very protective of my wife and son. They knew that I only needed to be given a "heads-up".
People could learn a lot from that. Instead of holding onto a bad feeling just let go and have some fun instead. So much wasted life being upset when you could just be more dog
@@WhittaII I think that's why people say don't separate dogs after fights and don't linger on the bad feelings. Dogs are great at moving on. If we let them, that is
@@pain002 It is. It's understandable that people's first instinct is to separate and avoid, and obviously you have to do this safely because if a dog is aggressive or too het up from the fight, it can happen again. But generally, it's best to stay calm, let the dogs calm down and relax so they can move on and not carry with them the bad experience into the future.
My dog was intact until after he was 2. I had to stop taking him to dog parks because dogs would try to attack him. I had a pit walk up to him, pin him to the ground, and bit his face. Another time I had a pack of THREE German shepherds go after him, I picked him up and put him above my head and they jumped up on my back to try to get any part of him they could. People need to socialize their dogs and properly train them. Shit owners is what gives dog parks a bad name.
i hope you didn't go to a dog park after that unless you were alone with your dog or had a familiar dog accompany you. young pups can be traumatized easily by bad experiences with other/bigger/dominant dogs. i've been there, my own pup is very wary of other dogs and we try to meet with as many dogs during our walks as possible, but i won't force him to socialize. when he was younger, a couple of bigger dogs out of their leash in different situations attacked him and i did as you did, picked him up so the other dogs would give up and go away. it's upsetting how people keep defening their dog at a situation when it's their fault at having their dog out of leash when they're clearly a danger to other dogs and possibly even people
@@allitus I’ve never been back to a dog park and never will. I take my dog hiking where people don’t frequent so I can let him be a dog, or I bring him with me to the farm where my horse is and let him wander with the owners dogs. Much safer than dog parks.
The fact that you keep bringing your dog to a place when you know it will get attacked, over and over again is the problem. Put your ego aside and simply don’t go to the dog park
I really appreciate the way you type in an explanation of whats going on with their body language and the situation! I feel like a lot of videos don’t go that into depth so its harder to figure out whats going on if you’re not able to read dogs the way you can. Thank you for your hard work to explain to us, please keep making videos like this, I always enjoy watching and learning! I have a question: How did you become so good at understanding dogs? I want to try and learn more for myself :)
I would say you can learn a lot about dog body language by finding online resources, books, but also just real life practice. It took me a while to realize that dogs can use a lot of different signals to say things. For example: the dog in this video raised his hackles because he was excited, but I was trained at my job that dogs only raise their hackles because they’re about to do something aggressive. I know a pitbull at my daycare who just puts her hackles up when she comes to the playroom to look bigger, but she never actually wants to fight or anything
I have learnt a lot from dogs we have had. Grew up with dogs and cats. You pick up on their body language. I always know what my dog wants. I watch her closely when on the field with other dogs, she is very submissive. But sometimes other dogs are not picking up on her clear signals, that all she wants to do is play fetch and doesn't want to play them. Mainly puppies, but they have to learn. She will tell them off, but she is still young herself. I did have one occasion where I yelled at the other dog's owners to come and get their dog. They were being far too rough, and she kept laying down, being submissive and trying to hide between my legs. This dog just would not give it a rest. It was friendly, it wanted to play, but she wasn't interested. I got annoyed with the owners because they just stood there laughing, when my dog was clearly giving off 'HELP ME, THIS IS STRESSFUL' signals. In the end I just walked off with her by my side, and they only then rushed over because their dog was following us. 🙄
All i got from this video was if i were ever a flea on a dog i would get really sick. All that turning and fast moving, and bumping from the camera view would kill me if i had to live like that.
Ronin is an absolutely awesome dog. Kept himself in control, kept dodging and pushing away the pitbull instead of going for a full on bite, and didn't attack the pitbull once it was restrained. Very nicely trained.
Very impressive how your able to read all the dog cues. Id personally be terrified to have my dog with unleashed aggressive pitts but Ronin appears to be able to hold his own if needed!
@@WaffleYabbler At least I don't need to use my dog to compensate for dick size. Walking around letting it threaten another dog that could easily kill it because you you want to vicariously feel hard.
ive had a pit mix before, she was my first real experience with training and i was so happy with her outcome because she came from a bad background. had multiple people ask me where i got her trained for service. so smart, only problem we had with her is she was terrified of my father, who she was supposed to be a gift for, took three years for her to fully trust him. in the end she ended up my dog and i enjoyed her training. i love seeing how well your dogs act and getting pointers on body language.
Ronin is such a good boy! You and anyone involved in his training have done an excellent job, thoroughly impressed with his ability to protect himself without further escalating the situation
People need to grab their dogs when a fight breaks out, I stopped taking mine to a dog park after her ear got damaged by a husky, the other just brushes it off “oh their only playing” then grabs their dog and leaves the dog park instantly avoiding our questions. Another instance is where two black dogs nearly drowned our own, she’s not great at swimming but they were backing her up into the water, she just wanted to leave and stay close to us, but the two dogs kept blocking her from leaving, basically drove her to the ground. The owns of those dogs only called them, didn’t really step in, my dad was about to step in and get their dogs off ours. I was ready to grab my own.
Cool video! Ppl do not understand how much time needs to go with having these specific breeds. You have trained ronin so well! Many blessings to you both❤
Ronin has a very kind personality from what I can tell, never tries to square up or shows signs of aggressiveness rarely (actually almost never) And always tries to back down from fights when he gets the chance to unlike some other dogs .
@@roderickthered4981 yeah but he clearly wasn’t trained to be, but he definitely has the strength of one. I’m just saying he’s very well cared for and doesn’t have a reason to be aggressive to new dogs unless they are to him
@@roderickthered4981 you act like your dog being aggressive is a good thing... its not. Your dog is a danger if he is provoking and engaging in fights and you're encouraging this behavior. He may end up killing a smaller dog or being injured/killed himself. Please be wary of your dog before something bad happens. Its better for both him and you. Most vets and professionals recommend if your dog is aggressive and oversexual (usually also a byproduct) to neuter him to not have issues (Some people don't have to, but in your situation you said he is openly aggressive to other male dogs). He also should be trained. Having a guard dog but not deciding to train it is a huge issue. I forgot to add, neutering your dog can also protect him from other dogs. Male dogs are more aggressive to unneutered dogs which could be another source of aggression (though it sounds like your dog is that dog who starts the problems with other unneutered males).
This is why I stopped going to dog parks. I used to have an akita/lab mix who loved to play but was very well trained and passive. He had gotten bit twice by a pitt and german shepherd before I called it quits. I have a big back yard but just wanted my dogs to get used to seeing and playing with other dogs but you just cant trust all dog owners.
Change the hours you going. But continue to go. At the end of the day, its only just dogs, accidents happens. They bite and may be bite, though its rare. I have an american akita/ malamuthe whos huge, and he have been attacked before too, but he really learn a lot in those dogs parks. Very important for dogs to socialise (ever more for Akitas), and i have confidence I AND him can deal with those kind of situation together. You have to watch for signs and withdraw when you see those
I couldn't stay quiet like you. I would definitely say something, and I would definitely step in for my dog. I don't care if he can hold his own. I jump.
He did mention that for his assessment this would only make things worse for his dog but was ready to step in if it was needed. My exes female pittie lab mix (according to the vet she was a rescue) had a very aggressive run up and stare down a frienchie I was so glad the owner (who was right on top of them) didn't really try to interfere, as it gave us time to get there and take her away. If he had tried to mess with her both of the dogs mightve reacted and who knows how it would go. But yeah we saw her run up and we immediately went to see wtf she's doing and take her away. I can't imagine just sitting there while your dog is starting shit.
its very annoying to say something because they instantly switch it and blame you for having an aggressive dog. its a dead end talking to those kind of people and sadly its a majority of dog owners that are in denial about their dogs behavior.
I have a 1yo GSD and a 14mo redbone. They've been best buddies since Murphy was a month old. They're like two little boys play fighting in the yard, but I noticed early on they were teaching each other how to defend their necks from attacks. Murphy outweighs the redbone by a good 50 pounds, but he lets Leon Redbone get into position to attack his neck, then he fights his way out of it. Funny to watch at times as Leon never shies away from the tussle :) Excellent obedience by your GSD.
@@666Dethclok never leave comments like yours ANYWHERE... But yeah, DEFINITELY no toys at the dog park. People are dumb asf for bringing them. Most dogs, when they get a toy are not gonna wanna share even if they aren't aggressive
I love all the detailed info. My giant schnauzer never instigates anything but some other dogs just don't get along with her. If another dogs gets aggressive she will posture up and she's every bit of 85lbs, bearded and STRONG and no matter what, she will keep herself between my wife and the other dogs. We limit dog parks for that reason.
Most of them are just retarded. Usually a beefy dude, sports t-shirt or hoodie, 90s bully haircut, talks out of his ass and believes holding dogs by the neck is "how his baby plays". I've met plenty of wonderful pitties(helps that my dog is mentally unable to instigate a fight 😂 and is just a goofball, even some that "had issues with males) but it takes brain to own a dog. Some more then others.
@@JonDoe-uq1mk gotta keep that mauled toddler scented candle lit to keep the pittie happy or else there will be another "misunderstood poor baby pittie" in shelters
I live in a military town. Those who’ve lived in a military town know that people of said town usually own a pit bull or a German shepherd or Belgian malinois. The people with the pit bulls don’t actually train/know how to handle their dogs so that’s why I haven’t been back to the dog park since my dog was still a puppy
Honest question how much does the stereo type of bad pit owners play in how other people let their dogs socialize with the pits. I live in germany and one of the most prejudiced dogs for Bad behaviours are shepherd dogs. Socializing my half berieseln Mountain dog/ hovawart mix was easy since she looked cute and so many people wanted to pet/let their dogs play with ours. My knpv x-herder was cute as a puppe but after the 7-8 month marked i noticed how much different people reacted to him even if he was completly non aggressive , quiet and right next to me on leash.
@@samyheadshotn America people are not automatically afraid of castrated/non castrated or gender or looks. You have to think, we have a lot of space, are a young country, big houses with big yards and people live far apart. Europeans have spacial fear/myths/traditions/wives tales. The common folk didn’t have dogs til “recently” . Sometimes you can talk them out of it by talking to them, sometimes they just want to believe what their grandma told them. I have to put a heart on my little English Lab because he is black even though he was a therapy dog at nursing homes in the states and walks around with a big grin and wagging his butt! Where I live close to Italy, they are afraid of black dogs bigger than a Maltese
@@HollysteinI’m from England and the amount of dog attacks from pitbulls is alarming. Attacks also including death. And yes, bad owners and lack or training is the main reason for these events. But let’s just go back to basics for a second. Any animal can attack. Any dog can attack and cause injury and many people sustain injuries from dogs as small as Jack Russell. Not all dogs, however, have the strength and capability to maul a human to death. There are a few breeds capable of this, not just pitbulls. Mastifs and Rottweiler and even German shepherd can kill a person. So my next question, why the hell would anyone want an animal like this in their home? The amount of people who have actually had their limbs ripped off, especially by pitbulls is appalling. Being a good owner and training your dog will massively reduce the risk of the dog turning on humans. But it can still happen and does all the time. Dog’s turning vicious on humans isn’t always a result of lack of training or abuse. They are an animal with feelings and that means their personality can change and anything could spook them. There are terrible dog owners for just about every breed that exists, yet it’s always the same breeds that are killing and disfiguring people. Go figure.
@@Paul.......I completely disagree. Most ppl who have big dogs have the big dogs simply because they wanted them, not because of strength or anything like that. I love big dogs so much, there’s more to love and more to cuddle.
Thank you for this video. This is actually the first one I found that actually explains to people what's going on. You should put "Educational" in your title so people who want to learn about their pets can find one that isn't just chaos and triggers. Subbed Edited to add: The title itself as it is, definitely wouldn't have made me click, except I was looking for a video to demo a specific attack event. Maybe repost with a different title too, see if people try to learn? Anyway thanks
The fact that the pit had a partial muzzle shows it’s an aggressive dog and has probably attacked before. That fight would’ve been much worse if not for the partial muzzle.
Not sure where this is, or where you're from...but head collars and muzzles on pitbulls in public is a law. I had to register mine with the police department when I move to Louisiana. We also have to have at least a 6ft leash on them even in our own fenced in yard. However, with my boxers vs my pitbull, I'd take the pit any day. Just cause of when I fainted due to a high fever, she wedged her body underneath and slowly got me to bed. My boxer, has more of a "let's just see how long it takes before we help" personality.
But he kept invading all the dogs and caused each one to tense up. Let me know if I’m wrong please because I’m trying to understand dogs, I rewatched the video and In each video ronin was the one confronting each dog.
Excellent video. I own a Mal X and have owned several Belgian Mals. This breed is NOT unpredictable and gives off very readable signals. Your analysis is spot on and informative. I shared it with a few of my dog park friends. Thanks.
it doesnt. it really doesnt. if you know about dogs you know that they dont give a fuck about you, only about being dominant and receiving food. lol dogs dont love YOU, they love FOOD.
Reminds me of the first time I took my 11 month old malanois/malamute to the park. An older guy with a pit was sitting on a log as we entered. My dog was sniffing the ground and being greeted by other dogs. Out of nowhere the pit sprints 20 yards and latches onto my pups ear. I'm 6'2 200lbs and I punched that dog in the head as hard as I could. He yelped/let go, hit the ground, and was clearly stunned. The older man started cussing me out, and I told him I'd do worse to him if I ever saw that dog inside the park again. 6 years later and I've never seen that man or his dog.
I had a pitbull and I wouldn't allow it to socialize with other dogs initially unless she was muzzled first. Several dogs did try to go after her on an initial meetup but she was powerful dog and could push down most dogs with brute force alone (she had great genes, she looked I fed her roids and had her drag trains, lol never did anything other than exercise and good dog food/table scraps). Once she knew the dog, she got along with them great, but I never took the chance of letting her hurt other dogs, as tough as she was I knew if she lost it the other dog was going to have it bad, luckily she never got to lose it unmuzzled. I don't understand dog owners that own powerful breeds letting them roam without a muzzle first, while our dogs may be safe around our friends and family outside you never know if the other dog owners socialized their pets or if their dogs are aggressive due to lack of training and discipline. I look at it like this, if you're not willing to stick your hand out and get bitten when your dog gets out of line to rescue someone else's or your dog you shouldn't have one and you don't deserve them.
Not a full blood pit for starters. Second it had some type of tie on its snout. And the owner should have put it on the leash when it started to use time as a teaching experience. Majority of pit owners have no frigging clue . "Oh they are so cool looking " no idea how to handle it
@@jeffreyjohnson5556 you have no clue that the pitbull was wearing a gentle lead . It’s a great way to walk a dog that pulls a lot . It actually helps the dog learn not to pull . It’s based on what they use for a horse . Rather the tie goes around the dogs snout . It’s not a muzzle .
I have a Malinois as well. She is honestly the best dog I’ve ever had and I had different breeds of dogs in my life. Had labs, a Shepard, and a pitbull. And honestly the pitbull was the worst experience I ever had with a dog and my malinois was the best. I got rid of the pitbull because she attacked my malinois and almost killed her. My malinois nova is okay cause she can defend herself pretty well. But the pitbull came at me when I was 8 months pregnant and my malinois protected me. I kept the malinois cause the pit was the primary aggressor and when breaking up fights my malinois nova would try to run from the pitbull and listen to me but the pitbull wouldn’t stop attacking. We were about to have a baby so with the pitbulls aggression like that she had to go to protect the whole family.
Just the run-up the Pit mix made to Ronin spelled bad news from the start, that and his tenacious attitude towards Ronin in general. Regardless Ronin handled the situation beautifully and as it should be
yeah he should remove pit bull from the title, its NOT a APBT so it is NOT a pit bull. it is a MUTT. and as with any dog, ESPECIALLY ANY GAME/WORKING DOG BREED... any attacks are SOLELY the owners fault. as you should NOT be able to own working/game dogs without knowing how to handle/train/ AS WELL as have the time and energy to exercise and give them attention.... ALL DOGS ARE WOLVES. REMEMBER THAT. IT IS ON THE OWNER. AND PIT BULLS ARE SO CONSTANTLY MIS LABELED THAT THERE IS LITERALLY 147 BREEDS LABELED AS PIT BULLS IN THE STATISTICS THAT CLEARLY MISLEAD YOU INTO THINKING PITTIES ARE EVER PEOPLE AGGRESIVE, THEY ARE NOT, EXCEPT IN THE ONE SITUATION WHEN ANY DOG BREED BECOMES HUMAN AGGRESIVE. ABUSE AND NEGLECT.
would a Belgian Malinois defeat a pitbull? Pitbull has a lot more of brute force, AFAIK, would the huge intelligence advantage of the Malinois be enough?
@@karlm641 I grew up around dogfighting, you are completely delusional if you think any Shepard stands a chance against the fighting breeds. You are clueless.
Pitbulls are inherently more dangerous than other breeds and the people that gravitate towards that breed are often in denial about it and get an attitude.
As someone who has a reactive and canine aggressive bull breed, I can’t thank you enough for these videos. I just discovered them, searching for dog fight footage to show the people I trust with caring for my dog when I have to work. I’ve experienced both walkers and family members walking my dog and then letting her off leash in busy parks, when I instruct them that they are under no circumstances to ever walk her anywhere other than quiet residential streets - ON the lead. I’ve explained to people over and over for five years how dog fights occur in the blink of an eye, and how many micro moments stack up to create them. I’ve explained to them the gravity of the consequences being dogs injured or killed - mine or someone else’s. I’ve explained to them the responsibility that comes with caring for a dog who is sensitive and nervous, like mine. I’ve explained to them the different levels of and types of aggression, the reasons for them, the predictable triggers but also the unpredictability of environments we can’t control. I’ve STILL ended up hearing from other dog walkers, or finding out from other family members, that they’ve taken my dog to parks, let her off, and then thrown sticks for her (a huge resource guarding risk). It’s honestly very upsetting. People seem to be unable to comprehend that a dog who they have never seen in a fight, could be aggressive. They meet my dog, see how insanely friendly and loving and content she is with people, they hear me tell them she’s canine reactive, they say they understand but truly - they’re not absorbing what I’m telling them. My last resort is to now insist on watching your videos with anyone who looks after my dog. I’m really amazed to see such clear and well annotated footage of the most important moments: the ones LEADING UP to that seemingly split second moment in which an attack happens. I really hope this helps people understand properly how hard it is to avoid these things happening, even for a dog owner as experienced and knowledgable as the one creating these videos. The thing is, your dog is far safer because of your knowledge. The dogs attacking in these videos are looking at a life of stress, anxiety and probable seizure/death. Also refreshing to see a video and comment section which is not vilifying the pit bull breed as a whole. A lot of bull breeds do suffer from poor genetics, resulting from poor breeding, resulting in a proclivity towards aggression. Pitbull and staffie (in my country) owners have a knee jerk response to the stigma these breeds receive, and in doing so they white wash the very real responsibility that comes with owning a powerful breed - breeds that CAN come with an inherited genetic history of fighting for sport or for protection.
I work at a dog daycare and something I always hated about public dog parks what that they leave toys and other resources on the ground. Whenever we bring the dogs out for potty break we make ABSOLUTE sure there arent toys in the yard for them to resource guard, its just a recipe for disaster.
@@Krokok Would've not turned out good, my cane corso and german shepherd just got into a fight (two females), the german shepherd´s jaw broke because of cane corso's force. Cane corso got no injuries from german shepherd's teeth. German Shepherd's teeth are sharp but bully's skin is thick, I believe the fight would've just esculated even worse
if you thought this was an attack you will be blown away when you see an actual attack. if it was an attack, pit bull's jaw would be locked on mal's neck. it didn't, so it wasn't
AMAZING dog you have!!❤ I really enjoyed how you broke down with subtitles the language dogs use. More dogs need this socialization!! 99% of dogs are naturally made to avoid conflict. I like the way your dog constantly tried to deestilated the confertation, but stood his ground when push came to shove. You are amazing trainer!
Dogs don't need dog parks. Look what happened here with the pit. This is a really nice mal with good dog communication. He can get totally fucked up from a few bad experiences at the dog park and become aggressive. Dog parks are a crapshoot each time. You don't know who is going to be there and whether they are going to bring an aggressive dog.
This is one of the major reasons why I stopped taking my dog to the dog park, I have a Pitbull that’s very friendly, he’s best friends with my cats. Not aggressive at all. Took him to the local dog park twice and both times, he was just minding his own business playing catch with me when he got attacked by a German shepherd and another Pitbull both at separate times. So needless to say we don’t do public dog parks anymore. 😔
Yeah it sucks because pit bulls aren’t bad dog there more behaved than other breeds smh but people like this RU-vidr like to bring bad names on them smh but in reality lol my parents pitbull is more trained than his little go pro dog lol 😂 but yeah people like to judge pit bulls because they lack the knowledge and skills to even own one
A lot of noticeable wrongs here coming from a vet student. Dog parks aren’t the greatest environment for dogs and unneutered dogs (male and female) shouldn’t be taken to public dog parks. Try taking your dog to a hiking trail or beach, when you notice aggressive behavior try to stop the interaction before it becomes violent to protect the animals, don’t wait to try to catch it on camera.
I once had a rust red Russian sharpei that was as gentle as a lamb but very protective of our kids around strangers and especially other aggressive dogs. He wasn’t really a big dog, about 55 to 60 pounds but he was as fast as greased lightning. He had this defensive move against other dogs picking a fight where he would wait until the aggressor was in the right spot while running along side,plant his front feet firmly stopping and whirl in a circle knocking the other dog into a tumbling train wreck. Never seen that move before in other dogs.
@@kazumajay pitbulls are tall and really slim. bullys aren't a real breed anymore because people destroyed the originals.. So yeah this is a bully mutt.
I also wonder why intact people mingle with sterilized/castrated people in a foodball match in the tribune. They should be separated in different seats or spaces😂
Idk why it took so long to see this answer but you’re absolutely right. No intact males or females in heat should be at the dog park period. The video author even admitted their dog is at peak levels of testosterone. Make it make sense people. Dogs can’t control their instincts but we as their owners can control where we take them. Quit putting your dogs in dangerous situations.
This is why I got a 110 lb doberman. Even at age 11, no dog dare mess with him even though he's sweet and plays with all the other dogs nicely every time.
Great demonstration on how some dog owners don’t know anything about their breed, and how others know more. I wish that there were more responsible and educated dog owners out there, and that goes for breeders who don’t do due diligence on who they sell to.
I’d like to see this view when my Pomeranian was attacked by a pitbull. I wasn’t there, but someone else was walking my dog for me. She (pitbull) was leashed but stronger than her owner and pulled him to the ground to run after my Pomeranian (male) who always yapped at other dogs, he had a lot of anxiety around big dogs especially. Due to size differences, she ended up grasping his neck and puncturing his trachea. We rushed to the vet but they waited too long to do surgery and he passed in the night. The fight in this video thankfully de escalated, but it can absolutely lead to fatality. Pitbulls are no joke, and they all need to be trained professionally to ensure they listen in triggering prey-predator situations. It doesn’t necessarily mean that they were abused by an owner, they’re just in default mode when untrained. They were bred for bloodsport, so that’s what they’re good at. Pomeranians were friggin lap dogs for Queen Victoria, so they’re not going to be the same as a pit. I get the “don’t hate the breed” shit but there’s logic that needs to come into play. They aren’t humans facing racism, which is so different and rooted in hate. These are animals bred by humans for certain jobs and purposes.
My rescue chihuahua mix wax killed by a very sweet pittie girl last month. I am still very bitter over the whole incident. It’s always got to be the breed. It takes a special person to raise a well mannered pittie. I don’t say they don’t exist
@@MariaClara-vq4zc "killed by a very sweet pittie mix" You're the problem. Thanks for showing people how fuckin delusional pit lovers are. you should get the shot after the "sweet" pitbull.
All these pit bull owners who adopted during the pandemic and didn’t train their dogs piss me off so badly. They are a menace at our apartment complex too. I’ve had a dog try to attack me getting out of my car.
Yknow what i love bout you and your channel? I love the fact that you know how to read dogs ( and ronins a damn good pooch) and you explain whats what in your vids. I should hope to one day become half as proficient as you are in reading dogs. Youre an excellent owner and even better teacher. Ty for sharing your vids and letting us take in joy watching ronin be such a good boy. Thank you again!!!
@@dannydenny430 nope I'm pretty happy and not lonely at all but good try with the amateur psychology sweetheart. Nobody "popped off" on you, just an observant person noticed that you're an insecure clown. You're below my weight class madam, plus I don't hit children. You're 5'9" AT MOST with that small man attitude 😘
Warning to people with aggressive dogs that they refuse to control: your dog will get killed in front of you, whether it's by a cop or a person who's dog is being attacked. If you can't control your dog, get one that you can control. If your dog is aggressive, maybe it's best you go into the woods alone with it for exercise, not a park where there are a bunch of triggers for it.
Very clear observations of dog behavior. I have rescued many animals in my lifetime. Pit bulls and Belgian Malinois included. Two breeds I would never take to a dog park.
Really good video, the breakdown shows signals you wouldn't always spy in real time. I've a Staffy pup 10wk old and watching her communicate with my older female husky seemed a little aggressive but your dogs eye view makes me chill abit.
My Cane Corso grew up in quarantine, and my parents don’t like having dogs in the car so he never had a chance to properly socialize. I’m very concerned about taking him out in public. If anyone comes near me he gets standoffish. It’s upsetting, but it’s the truth.
This is why we have trainers 👍 You can't afford a mistake with a Corso, it could end in disaster. This issue is totally correctable but you need someone with some experience. I wish you the very best luck! We went through that with my brother's dogs that were very affected by the quarantine situation. They both did well with some work.
First off, I commend you for acknowledging your dogs behavior, with that being said, understand that he is reacting to your energy, he knows you feel unsure but he doesn't understand why so his immediate instinct is going to be to "defend/protect you", without realizing nor intending to, we become the problem, I suggest you continue to educate yourself on his breed and work on yourself, that's extremely important, notice how calm and controlled the owner is in this video, he knows his dog and his traits and you can see how Ronin seeks reassurance from him, if you feel confident and in control the dog doesn't have to be in alert, "ready to kill" mode, lol, sounds like you want to learn and on the right path, just remember knowledge is power, the more you know the safer and happier you and your baby can be!
With Cane Corso you absolutely need to train him well and quickly, like yesterday. If he and you are untrained, you have a walking time bomb at your side.
Could you explain to us why in hell’s name you would even want to own such a dog ? It makes no sense at all. Akin to juggling a loaded pistol with the safety off. You are in just as much danger as a stranger. These purposely created breeds were used for horrific acts such as tracking down escaped human slaves. Unbelievable. Read about the use Spaniards and conquistadors made of these dogs when destroying peaceful native populations in South America. They were trained to disembowel people and instill fear. Children and adult victims were thrown into pits with these dogs to be ripped apart for enjoyment by handlers. That is the history of these war dogs. Congratulations. The truth should disgust us all.
Your dog Ronin is quite a cool Shepherd. I work at a dog grooming shop, and so many Shepherds that come in are so unbalanced and have such a lack of guidance from their owners, that the dogs have zero confidence and zero idea on how to act. Ronin is quite the opposite. You're an awesome Shepherd owner. Very educated in the breed and in dogs in general, it seems. You have a very confident, balanced Shepherd but you do not need me to tell you that. We need more people like you owning dogs.
