DO THEY HAVE TO PUT THIS DOG DOWN FOR AGGRESSION? 

It’s nice to see a retriever because it really goes to show any dog no matter the breed requires commitment work and training

I give the owner credit for being responsible and knowing her limits. No Bad Dogs(or puppies)! Keep the videos coming!

Truly great owner. I wish more people would realize what she just did.

Mad respect to her for re-homing the puppy to give both dogs a better quality of life!

The quality of this video is on a whole other level! You and your team are really stepping it up! Great job!

i'm so happy this lady owned up to the mistake that was getting a second puppy. every dog deserves a home that can take care of them and she really seems like she's learned several lessons here

Mad respect for the lady for realizing the potential of the pup, setting her emotions aside and choosing what is in the best interest of the dog! Wow, it brought tears to my eyes.

The Golden is a good boy and the puppy is doing exactly what puppies do! Great advice on training right away and I liked how responsive the owners are. They really care-as evidenced by mom's thoughtful consideration about their abilities to appropriately care for the dogs and give them a good life.

Kudos to the owner making the tough but right decision!!

My heart goes out to this lady and her husband! I know the feeling when you're responsible for the dog and it's just disrupting the whole house and you don't know what to do. I know. This is the reason we need more people like Tom educating people on how to do it.

Once again, a vivid example of the skill and understanding Tom has, not just about dogs, but also about people and their interactions with dogs. Such a beautiful thing to watch…..thank you, Tom!

It’s been so cool to watch this channels glow-up in terms of video quality and seeing the whole channel, business, and team expand (feels like the dog training equivalent of when Peter McKinnon really started to take off 🚀).

Tom, have you ever thought about doing check ups? I feel like so much of dogs bad behavior is dependent upon the owners. I’d be interested to see you go back after a few months and see if they kept up with it or fell back into their old ways. You’re the man.

the same way you build confidence in your pup, your show and build confidence in yourself. your doggo will notice.

I got my golden doodle because the rear admiral that bought him let her get into weed killer and she went bald. Her hair has grown back and after a rough time she is in good health. The sweetest dog in the world.

She loved him enough to help him get a life he should have not what he would have. I totally respect what she has done. Great job.

It's great to see that she was thinking about the puppy. And she did what was best for him and her other dog.

Kudos to this lady for wanting her puppy to have a better life! I sincerely wish I had seen your work with dogs when my GSD was a puppy! ❤

Love this from the owner. They made a mistake in taking on the puppy but were mature and humble enough to just admit It! Don’t let your ego get in the way ppl, we all make bad judgements from time to time, being able to swallow your pride and be realistic about what will be best going forward is such a superpower. Now both dogs will have a better chance at living a happy life!

Loved watching Tom interact with the puppy! Also get to know he gave not just the dog he came to work with a better life, also the puppy. Bravo to the owner for recognizing her limits.

I love this woman! She’s smart, responsible and truly has both dogs’ best interests in mind. I admire her honesty and integrity. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

This is one of my favorite videos so far! Much respect to this lady for doing what's right for both dogs. Tom thanks for all you do for the dog community, you have definitely made me a better dog owner! 🐶

The golden obviously knows how to behave, he just can't, his brain is going a million miles a minute. once that dog gets some confidence he is gonna be fantastic

Wow wow wow! Such a hard decision to let go of the puppy! I admire the owners Another great episode Tom! Can’t get enough of this content!!!!

Amen and thank you for highlighting what truly goes into bringing a pet (any kind of pet) into your home. Once they are in your home they are ENTIRELY dependant on you. Hopefully your video inspires many who watch to take the time to honestly consider if they have the ability to care for a pet's needs. So happy the owner was willing to be honest enough to consider if they were over their heads with the puppy! ♥️

Hi Tom, Never thought Goldens could be that aggressive, and they'd always be friendly and playful. But end of the day, its not the dog, its the owner. No Bad dogs! 🙌

Congratulations and a Big shout out to Tom Davis....the man's an absolute Genius with dogs #Boss 😎

Tom - Giver of life.

I absolutely love the filming style and editing for this video

Absolutely love what you do ... No Bad Dog ... I've learned so much and it's helping my Catahoula Leopard Pit mix.Thank you

Monty is so cuuuuteee!!! 😭😭😭

No Bad Dogs. Proven once again👍

you Tom are fantastic with dogs!!

Amazing video I'm going to continue with learning and keeping up with training for my doggie he's my first bigger dog and he's a dashund shepherd mix wish at first was intimidating but Im staying positive and watching the best dog trainer videos from Tommy Davis so I know it will take time but things will get better.

Hoped you loved the garden state! ❤️

My dog does is afraid of other dogs in my opinion but if there is a gate between them the. He just barks continually. I’ve taken him to the dog park to socialize him but it does not work. I don’t know what to do . He is still a puppy 8 months old

This video was such high quality it was amazing

Another great video , Tom! Well done. 👏

So happy to see Milo’s state of mind change 🙌🏻

Great woman you are going to have such a great time together

This seems to be a very regular golden with no guidance at all. I am surprised how clueless the owners were as they had big dogs before. Also being surprised that the pup can learn very fast shows that they simply never knew they can teach it or how they should teach it...

If a dog owner can not train a dog with lease pressure, they should not have a dog.

I admire your work ethic and approach to anxious dogs on a daily basis. On a side note, when is the mullet gonna go away?

I really have mad respect to the owner to make a decision to get the puppy a new home where he will have a better chance to reach his potential and the Golden will get the training he needs.

Keep up the awesome work Tom, loving the videos

That puppy is so cute. It's amazing how you haft to actually train the two dogs apart, before you can train them to gather. It's like they both got Issues that they haft to deal out, and once those issues are resolved they can interact together without aggression. Tom, I would like to say that I have learned a lot from your videos, it really helps in my pursuit of becoming a dog trainer my self 🤙 thank you.

Brave lady. Kudos. Great dog lover. I’m sure it wasn’t easy for her but she was not selfish.

What's the proper way to crate train?

I’ve tried so hard to explain this to my roommate. He got a puppy at 6 weeks old off of FB 🙄 and I kept telling him he needed to train her before she got bigger. Now she’s almost 7 months and she’s 1) Still not potty trained. 2) Hardly ever listens. 3) He lets her off leash and of course she runs around and won’t listen when he tells her to come back. 4) He feels like he has to say things 10+ times to get her to do it (sit, sit, sit, SIT SIT SIT) despite me telling him how to only say it ONCE. It’s a nightmare.

What training tool would you suggest for a Maltipoo? The slip lead just doesn’t seem to help with his reactivity.

Such a hard decision to make! I applaud the Owners for choosing to keep the older Golden and find a new home for the pup. Having volunteered in shelters, I have seen too many older dogs abandoned when the new puppy enters a home. While pups are typically quickly adopted, larger dogs over about 5 yrs old have a difficult time finding a new home.

I’m all for the sleeping with sirens intro!

When will you be in Chicago?

Wow! I love this style of video💗. The music was well chosen, the editing was tight, and the extra bits of Tom at the bar were so entertaining! It felt like I was watching a travel show 😊. I love ALL of your videos, but the ones where Tom travels to different cities have been my favorites. Kudos to your production crew👍. Best of all was the compassion shown to the owner. She was presented so well in the video as a woman who loved both of her dogs, but had to make a very sacrificial decision. Tom LISTENED to her, and reinforced her decision without any negative judgment or pressure. Sometimes rehoming a pet is the best answer, but it's a gut wrenching choice. Excellent job, beginning to end!!!

It looks like the prong is on slightly to the side, is there a particular reason for that? Maybe it’s not and just looks like it is?😊

the opening music mix :) ha

just curious.. have you ever been to India?

Rehoming the puppy was a very unselfish and the right thing to do.

Two goldens attacked my GSD’s while I was walking them. It was fun. Mine were fine on the leash while I was kicking the dogs away commanding them to leave. The owner ran out saying his dogs hate shepherds, and they were both unleashed

Hey Brother, my puppy got spayed and now she's showing some aggression. . Not sure what I did wrong. Can you help please.she was doing so good

Enjoyed watching the whole interaction with a family versus the short clips at your business. Glad she's removing the puppy, it's such a cute dog who deserves a good interactive life. Can you tell people how to choose what leash or tool to use to train your dog? I have a 10 year old reactive dog.

Song at the beginning?

Do you have any dog breeders you like or shelters that you recommended?

They don't exercise their dogs enough.

Interesting, at least with my contact in Germany; I'm told with GSD's they begin tracking at 8 weeks of age. Protection at 1 year, obedience at some point right after that? Why so late on obedience? Germans feel obedience is a form of "punishment"; that's why it's last. In regard to protection, the American mentality is a dog should be in full control before engaging in protection training. Germans want the dog to be basically "wild" ; feeling like "superman/superwoman" when pursuing protection training.

Not really related to this video but what can be done about same sex aggression? I have a female Great Pyrenees mix and apparently that is a known thing. I had no idea until after being with us for a year she tried to kill my female shepherd mix. No signs that I saw. The day before they were playing and snuggling on the couch. The next day they squabbled I separated them for a few hours and when I released them the GP attacked. We like to never got them separated - she skinned one of my shepherds front legs and had multiple puncture wounds in her neck. Over $1000 in vet bills. We’re lucky she didn’t hit an artery. They are permanently separated but it means they spend a lot of time kenneled now since I can’t leave them loose while I work. And even at home if one is loose the other is kenneled. Especially now that all the kids are gone. My college daughter was home with schools closed for COVID when they fought. There is no way I could break up that fight alone.

Didn't these people have a golden retriever names snooki and they were on its me or the dog with Victoria.

Not a dog problem...... a people problem.

There is no shame in rehoming your dog to give them a better home. Life changes and sometimes the best thing you can do for your loved pet is to give them to someone who can do right by them.

I always applaud an owner who recongnizes that giving up a dog may be what 's best for it and knows their limitations. Great video as usual and look forward to more :)

This is probably my favorite video to date. Mad respect for this woman and being willing to help her dog, but also understanding she can't take on the puppy.

This is one of your best videos yet, content and production wise. So many 'animal lovers' say you should never rehome any animal for every reason. That it's cruel. But what's cruel is keeping an animal to satisfy you ego and emotional needs when you can't give them what they need to thrive.

I’m so happy they decided to put their all into their golden, so many times people blame the dog and get rid of their old dog because they don’t “like” the puppy

As a dog owner, accepting your mistakes and asking for help is a very powerful trait not everyone has!

Massive respect to the owner realising the pressures of owning 2 dogs that both require massive training procedures and making the decision in the best outcome for the dogs. That is the kind of owner there needs to be more of. Fantastic video. Loved it.

We put tons of time into this production, can you like this video for me? :)

Literally blown away. My mouth hung open as I saw and heard this owner acknowledge her limitations. To do and say that takes an amazing amount of courage, humility and LOVE for both dogs. She is an awesome person, kudos to Tom for simply showing her what was in front of her and letting her absorb the information and make her own decisions.

I'm a fellow dog trainer with the same type of mentality and methods as you (why I love your channel!) and have been a trainer basically my entire life. I also worked at a county shelter for many years as a vet tech and eventually an ACO. The ONLY dog I have ever been bitten by, other than chihuahuas that haven't done any real damage, was a golden retriever. I was only 7 years old and he basically ran the neighborhood terrorizing everyone. No one ever did anything though because none of us blamed the dog...he was HORRIBLY abused by his owners and all of us felt bad for him. He did so much damage to me that I still have nasty scars 30 years later. He helped fuel my love of dogs and wanting to help as many as I can. RIP Woody

i applaud this family for 1) separating the dogs so there were no more altercations (my dogs previous owner didn’t do that and he’s very reactive now due to trauma, he’s so much better now thanks to tom’s videos lol), 2) being so willing to learn and knowing they were part of the problem and not taking offence to that, and 3) rehoming the puppy because that’s what was best for everyone. love this family so much ❤️❤️

It was heartbreaking to see how anxious the golden was in the beginning. Having a two year old retriever and a six month old doodle puppy is a lot of energy in that house. I am so glad the owners reached out for help and took the lessons to heart. They made a hard decision that was in the best interests of the pup, and their family, and should be applauded for that. Great job, everyone!

That’s insane to never take your dog for a walk…both dogs are so sweet and nice, the lack of exercise made them go crazy. Dogs are not object…sad to see the dog blamed all the time when the real problem is the owners

I almost cried watching de end of the video. Seeing him much more calm, really enjoying being with you is absolutely lovely!

I love when you said you aren't married to anything and will see what works best for the dog. So many trainers and behaviorists (not many people know there is a difference) will only use one tool. It's the great ones like you that realize every dog is different. Respect everything you do.

this just shows that any dog can have behavioral issues, even the most friendliest breed!

I agree. My wife wants another dog but I told her exactly what you just said.

I did not expect the Sleeping with Sirens music but I'm not complaining

I just wanted to let you know that you are the reason why I adopted my dog. I took it as a challenge to learn more about dogs and their behavior but I received so much more than that. I'm completely amazed as to what I was able to achieve and what my doggo achieved and I just wanted to say thank you. I literally watched so many of your videos and realized that a ton of people lack the knowledge of understanding dogs due to their own ignorance or lack of understanding of what it means to train your/a dog. I ended up buying your E collar as well and am amazed by how effective it is and how minimal the levels are actually used to get your dogs attention when off leash, and for vocal command training especially when my doggo isn't a foody. Please keep the videos going and thank you again!! For anyone reading this, I highly recommend Tom Davis's 280C E collar, literally amazing and definitely worth the price.

Beautifully edited and wonderful cohesive story boarding to show your process. Shout out to YOU and your team for teaching us by DOING.

To think Governments want to take our tools away is crazy. I have found once the dog has an educated owner they relax and the tools help big time. Great job Tom, thank you : )

WATCH THE FULL VIDEO ON THE MEMBERS CLUB! club.upstatecanine.com/

I've learned so much from your videos, so thank you! We have a recently blended family that not only included merging 4 children but also 4 dogs. My bernese/great Pyrenees mix (125 lbs) started guarding us from my boyfriend's husky (both male) and I was scared they would start fighting badly as things seemed to be escalating. I've worked hard on training them both together (as well as separately) using tips from your videos. I think my big guy sees that I also have control of the husky now and he doesn't need to jump in. He still likes to keep himself physically between the husky and my youngest son now and then, but the growling, barking and charging has stopped, and we all live peacefully with our big family. They will both sit, stay, and come when called almost in perfect unison. It is so rewarding to see!

Mad respect to the woman for giving up her ADORABLE puppy in order to give the best life to each dog. I 100% agree with her decision and think this move will greatly improve her golden’s behavioral issues bc she will be able to spend the time, energy, and focus on him while the puppy would be able to get the training, attention, and stimulation he deserves elsewhere.

Just look at how the demeanor and look on the Golden's face changes throughout the video. Well done Tom... Well done.

0:48 Knock knock... who´s there? Annoying dog! Annoying who!? Knock knock knock knock knock knock knock knock knock knock...

Your video quality and editing is top notch. The music, montages, and cuts all feel so crisp and refreshing. Love your work!!

Hey I just recently started watching your contact and then I realize you have a podcast and I listen to it it’s it’s cool

This video deals with so many critical issues within one household... incredibly helpful and important and inspiring. 💙

If it wasn’t for Tom and his videos I would not have been able to keep and train an 8 yr old country dog with no lease training. He lunged at anything with wheels and was aggressive with other dogs, squirrels, cats and unfriendly with strangers. He’s now a 80lb lab mountain cur lover of people and most other animals. He’s not perfect, but after a year and a half he’s a far cry from how I got him. You can train an old dog and I mean a 73 yr old woman. Thank you Tom

Amazing to see you working at the owner's house. I think it looks a little more realistic? Good to see the environment where the dog lives you know!

Such awesome advice with the puppy! My GSD was heeling off leash at 5 months, and I got so much shit for crate training, scheduling, and having tight structure. If you don’t put in the work early on, you will run in into problems.
