Thank you for your kind comment and for recognizing my public speaking skills with children! I completely agree with you that dogs are an integral part of our society, and it's important for people, especially children, to understand the basics of dog behavior and safety. While some schools may not have formal programs, there are many resources available online and through community organizations that provide educational materials on these topics. I appreciate your thoughtful feedback, and I hope to continue spreading awareness about responsible dog ownership and safety in my videos. Thanks again for watching!
Thank you for your comment and for appreciating my sense of humor! I believe that laughter is an important part of life, and I'm glad that my silly antics with my dog, Poopah, can bring a smile to your face. As someone who has worked with dogs for over 10 years, you undoubtedly understand the importance of positive reinforcement and creating a fun, enjoyable environment for our furry friends. Thanks again for taking the time to watch my videos and leave a comment, and I hope to continue entertaining you in the future!
@@-touya_todoroki just make sure you’ll train them physically and mentally like this guy in the video i just want to say trainers like him make it look easy, because they put in sooo much work, but it’s never easy for the average joe.
Thank you for your comment and for tuning in to my channel! While owning a Malinois is certainly a big responsibility and not the right fit for everyone, I'm glad that you're enjoying watching my videos and learning more about these amazing dogs. It's always a pleasure to share my experiences with my viewers and I'm happy to provide you with some insight into the world of Malinois ownership. Thanks again for your support, and I hope to continue providing you with enjoyable content!
I had a Malinois who I thought was a German Shepard when I got her as a puppy. Little did I know what I was in for. True to her breed she needed to “work” and have a job to do. Looking back I wish I’d taken her for training as she was a total handful, but undeniably the best dog I ever had! I miss you, Bimby!
Thank you for sharing, this was so much fun to watch!!! Super educational, using words and examples the kids could understand, and really showing the power of positive reinforcement and building a positive relationship with your dog. I thought you did a great job comparing dog body language to people's, and when you said that, just like with friends, if you don't respect them, eventually they won't want to be your friend anymore. That's quite impactful to hear even as an adult. I think it's fantastic you brought in the Poohpup, and can imagine it being really positively impactful for the children!
Thank you for explaining about the heel you used to bring him on site. I had no idea there were different kinds of heels, but that makes perfect sense for a working dog.
I've always felt that children need to learn at a young age how to treat, love & respect animals. School is a great place for that because not everyone has a pet at home. Hopefully, they will grow up to be adults that are kind to them.
Alrick is a amazing dog U r a excellent trainer You can tell by looking at poohpup is a very happy boy What a great team!!!!!! Thanks for showing kids what is possible with education & patience
That's lovely!! Kids learning about (working) dogs should be mandatory, too many kids expect every dog to be friendly and free to touch, but they should expect the opposite. Stranger's dogs are never ok to touch without asking.
I love these dogs and how he treats them even during training, I practically started calling my boy cat a poohpup because he practically follows me everywhere and comes when called.
That was a wonderful demo and a great presentation about working dogs and about observing and respecting your dog's body language. I'm sure the kids had questions and learned a lot and that some of them might want to teach their pups these kinds of "tricks" (which are all in a day's work for Alrick) as well.
Absolutely solid work and so beneficial for kids. Dogs have been at our side since our dawn. That's so important this kind of education. My take is that if we didn't have dogs at our side we wouldn't be here today as we are.
The relationship you have with your dogs is awesome to see! Plus seeing all the happy, playful behaviors that line up with my dog's behaviors let me know I'm doing something right 😁
Damn, that is one amazingly well trained dog. Kudos to both the dog and trainer. I can't even begin to imagine how much time you put into training Alrick. I'm in awe. Wish I could get my 2 (not Malinois) to do even 1% of this...lol
you are such an inspiration to me! I am a younger service dog trainer, so very different worlds in terms of dog training haha, but I think any dog owner/trainer could learn a lot from your amazing relationship with your dogs. I cannot express how happy it makes me to see other positive reinforcement based trainers out there! I love your videos and I really appreciate that you take time to teach kids about stuff like this, especially the body language part. It's so, so important that people learn that young. And it makes a difference for disabled service dog handlers like myself when people know even a little bit about dogs and their training; it really shows in our interactions with the public. Sorry for the borderline novella haha
We teach our staffy similar things, not to this level (we wish!), and it’s so gratifying seeing her so engaged and enjoying it but it’s also rewarding as hell having strangers comment on how amazing she is and how well behaved. She’s only 2 but we’ve done scent work, agility and some tactical positioning work with her and she’s a voracious learner. Dogs are just brilliant and it’s so fun watching your videos showing just how amazing they are 💜 thank you!
This was nice...but idk how effective it was because of the age of the audience...majority may just be seeing a man with a dog doing tricks...regardless of what im sure theyll remember this day for a very long time😙...poohpup is amazing 😍😍
not a Malinois’ hooman. But I rescued a GS puppy a few months back - and I just realized that he was trying to heel! on our walks . He was such a good boii it didn’t really take us long to find him a furrever home
When he said "it doesn't bother him, Because he's poopah" I could feel that lol. I have a male who's the same way. Rock solid, bomb proof nerves & 100% doesn't care about ANYTHING except what I tell him. He knows I won't let him get hurt, on purpose..
It’s absolutely amazing to me how working dogs can go from your best friend, on their back, getting tummy runs from strangers, to DANGER in .00000000000001 seconds.
Haha, man i hope to have half your relationship one day with my dog. She just turned 1 year and i got her from rescue when she was 7 months, so we still got some work to do and some fun to have. It's always really entertaining and super motivating to watch you and your dogs. Greetings from Germany, keep up the fun content.
U r the Best Dog Trainer 🐕 l have ever seen 😅 wish l was living in the USA 🇺🇸 & bring myself & my GSD 2 have u teach me. Huge Respect . Robert Australia 🇦🇺
Exellent Education with the Poopup. The best trainer i seen. Not only does the trainer educate the dogs but creates a solid bond with the Pup. I want one of those Pups jaja.
I love this video...a real testimony to your dog training and the stability of your dog. I had a very well trained GSD many years ago...he was also able to be a therapy dog in a nursing home. A well bred dog has this kind of stable temperment. I'm a recently retired high school teacher (30 years). I was also able to bring my dog into the school on occasion. It's so important to teach kids how to treat animals with respect.
My dog suffers from severe anxiety, but he is extremely intelligent. Your videos serve me as positive reinforcement to my behaviour with my dog. Thank you for your videos
youre such a good human being. speaking so clearly. youre a cure for my soul to watch. you're gentle and and you really love the dogs. I wish someone would treat me with half as much respect and dedication as you treat your dogs. for real now.
Man o Man, I love your video’s just by your body language & Face its to tell you love this. And you love that dog, and the bond you have. If I where you I would be the proudest man & Dog on the planet ! Makes me smile every time is see it, keep it up !!
You and your dogs are the coolest! I'm obsessed with watching your channel! My favorite is Alrick...such a cool name! LOVE how well trained they are! ❤
I have been watching your reels on RU-vid for like maybe two or three weeks, and I have got to say, I don't know why it took me so long to subscribe. You're absolutely amazing with these dogs, and some of the insight you have on dog cues that people sometimes don't get are AWESOME. Thank your for your educational videos! Plus...they're beautiful dogs! I accept I could never own one, but it is amazing to watch them work!
