Same day as yesterday, but new dogs came in and now there is a totally different energy. Watch how one untrained dog causes the energy of the entire park to change from our dog park shenanigans video.
I don't bring my pits to dog parks anymore because of the other pits that are always there. Mine won't back down from the jerk dogs either and I ain't got time for dog fights and arguing with dumb owners.
Is my pit-bull the only one that runs away from fights and commotion?? Lmao the moment a dog corrects her or growls at her she will literally turn away and be like Nope not today. 😂
There are certain individuals that are just not wired with that drive and that is awesome but, when another animal pushes your dog beyond her threshold and she doesn't have a chance to flight, she will fight. And once that happens it is hard to disengage them from that adrenaline packed moment. And unfortunately you're amazing dog at that point would be extremely sensitive and unpredictable with other dogs because they can't trust. Being an irresponsible owner and allowing dogs to traumatize other dogs is never okay and sadly it's the norm with the "fur baby owners" like in this video, who can't admit they have a real pitbull! (Even just a mix) but really what they mean is they have yet to see their Pitbull show "pitbull" related behaviors. It is one-hundred-percent not the breed it is always mostly the owner and how they're raised but that is not to say that there are not genetics at play and not traits that are still there from the past mistakes that we made when we thought that it would be entertaining to make them want to fight in such an extreme manner that they ignore anything else including pain. These dogs actually enjoyed the fight they enjoyed the adrenaline rush and there was nothing that competed with that and in order to get your dog to choose to not act that way you have to have something that competes. You have to know what you're looking at to be able to set your dog up for success in every situation and if you don't know or are not willing to accept what you know, then you are walking a very fine line of setting your dog up for failure.
Nevermind was kind of a while you know weird breed just a blue pit if things were cracking off at the dog park or at daycare she would climb up on the tallest scaffolding and climb over or s*** shoot even climb over the fence of that and all the dogs are gone wild
You should do a segment where you receive video submissions about your viewers’ dog behavior at dog parks and give advice Or have it as a patreon reward
I've always heard and believe the saying..."a pit might not start the fight but he will certainly finish it." This is why I don't take my pit to the dog park.
well my 5 month old poodle got attacked by an aggressive pitbull once at the park, poodle didnt even look at him so yes sometimes the pitbull does start it.
@@Grace-fu6mf I think the context here is that the Pit is not aggressive at all. One properly trained and socialized, esp at a young age with a responsible owner is a very (surprise)... normal dog.
That poor pitbull on the leash. He was obviously anxious from all the other dogs surrounding him and pressuring him. If your dog is in a fight, you drop the leash, at that point, there's nothing else you can do other than to let your dog's natural instincts take over. You can't protect your dog from a fight by keeping him restrained while another dog is biting and attacking him, it does him no good.
The white Pitbull was "poor" in a sense that the handler didn`t trust him to be with the other dogs equally off leash. I agree it is almost an invitation for trouble, because the other dogs know he can`t move as freely as them. Luckily most of the other dogs (besides the brindle pitty a little bit) were "well" behaved and didn`t use this situation to get at him. I agree the owner or handler did a risky thing there. My terrier mix which I got from the shelter (I believe there was a pit in her line as well) got bitten by a free running labrador directly and without hesitation in the nose. That was extremly unsozial dog behavior and a real bad experience for both of us, because my dog was on the leash, we were on our way home on the street and my dog was quietly walking beside me, the labrador came around the corner in full speed. The owner was playing catch the ball with him apparently. Of course I let go of the leash and my dog had the other dog on the neck. I separated them and was jelled at by the owner of said free running labrador. When this guy threatened to whack me and tried to kick my dog (almost successfully) I just called the police and they took care of the situation. They believed me, they saw that my dog had a leash and the other dog not only had no leash but also no collar - so everything was fine in the end, besides our visit to the vet of course.
She did keep her dog away from the other pit by jurking it back behind her. If she wouldn't have done that there would have been a fight. I think she was checking everything out before she released her dog or left.
I've told my daughter just that. If our male is attacked, to let him hold his own by dropping the leash. She can't sperate a fight on her own. She knows to drop the leash, and to call the police or for help (us) while it's happening. At the park, he's put on leash if we see him becoming annoying or trying to dominate another dog. He's so hyper, he can create a fight quick
Am i the only person that thinks these Dog parks are inherently volatile? Put thirty Dogs together in a confined space, and disagreements and fights are always going to happen? Or am i missing something?
Yeah it can cause issues fast. I personally only like dog parks with at most 4 dogs in the park. And dogs that are generally all behaved or owners that are willingly to let other dogs correct them. I.e. My pit-rottie mix loves to play ball but isn’t too fond of other dogs while our lab-hound mutt other dogs. In order to both get them their exercises and stimulation we have a local dog friendly park. We take them both and the people in our community know Sunny (pit-lab) doesn’t like rude pushy dogs. She won’t go after a dog and we have full control over her at all times. When she is annoyed she comes to us for help before ever growling or barking, but if the other dog continues to jump, nip, bark, mount, ect. She will pin them and correct them. We always try to remove her before then, but most owners with pushy dogs have either had their dog corrected by her and they no longer bother, or they’ve trained their dogs to have an “off” command. Dogs will teach other dogs what is acceptable. So when pushy dogs go after Sunny, our hound and all the other dogs will go after and correct the pushy dog. It’s such an interesting dynamic when dogs are allowed to use their own language. Hope this wasn’t too long of a read.
She talks about how pitbulls wanna finish business but they aren’t all like that. Corsos wanna take care of business as well. Just like her dog went and got into a fight that wasn’t hers.
100%. Asking for it. I steer clear of dog parks. The people, the dogs, ... I love my pitbull too much to put him in harms way. Meaning: if he gets in a fight - he's a pit. There's a risk he'll be taken from me or put down. He will hurt the other dog. Protect your dogs from this problem.
I love pit bulls and have had them all my life and it REALLY annoys me when people don’t properly train or check their dogs. Because of the negative connotation the breed has you really need to train them and make sure they are respectful.
@@aspen7993 American pit bull terriers are generally under 65lb. There have been bigger ones like Gr Ch Mayday was 75lb. But 45lb was more common. Check out the ADBA for the full breed standard. Not the standard set by the UKC. ADBA,BFKC, SDR and ICDR Are the most notable Registries for the American Pit bull terrier.
@@aspen7993 it's all good 👍. I agree that the American Pit bull terrier is a powerful dog that can cause alot of damage. Even though they are not a very large breed of dog they have the potential. To cause more damage than some larger breeds. Not because they are meaner than other breeds but because they have the strength of a larger dog pared with the Thing that. Separates them from other breeds which is their drive. American pit bull terriers have a higher level of drive than most breeds. So everything that they do They do with high intensity. They will pull on a dirt bike tire hanging from a rope with out being encouraged. While other breeds need encouragement or they will get bored and quit. American pit bull terriers will run themselves on a slat mill. While other breeds stop once they get tired or when they realize they aren't going anywhere. When pitbulls are faced with a challenge they become more intense when other types of dogs are challenged they'll quit even though they had more to give. This intense drive has been bred into the American pit bull terrier for a long time. There has been dog fights documented that went on for over 2 hours. It used to be legal for people to test their dogs on hogs people would time how long it would take for the dog to pin down the hog or hold it in one place This could take up to a hour at times. When these events were legal it was like going to the fair whole family's would attend there would be food and music dogs were sold and hogs would be auctiond. Now days the American pit bull terrier is still commonly used for hunting hogs. All of this is part of the breeds history and plays a part in the development of the APBT a amazing breed with crazy drive that gives them the ability to do amazing things. Or horrific and horrible things like killing people's pets and mauling innocent people. You are right they can cause a lot of damage and they do need a owner that is responsible and educated about the breed. Who has the means to keep them from harming any people or pets but still being able to meet their needs by giving them the physical and mental stimulation. That's required by this high energy working breed. The American pit bull terrier is my favorite breed and they truly are misunderstood by so many people. I was just sharing information about them with you. it wasn't meant to be in a negative way or in a corrective manner. Because I do agree with what you said. I don't know why I felt like sharing information about them with you I just did ✌😬👍
I have a 10 month old female pit bull, And yeah they can be one hell of a handfull. Doesn't mean they can't be or aren't good dogs, but you MUST know their behavior, what they are like and be responsible!
It's not always bad owners, some people just don't have the knowledge or the skill to handle large or powerful breeds. I feel that sometimes people are quick to attack a person that they don't know and I see them being the aggressive one and not the dogs.
@Kawaii Lio Pitbulls are dangerous in the sense that, once they get into a fight, they tend not to give it up. A fight that involves a pitbull can turn deadly very easily if the owner has no control. Pits are one of the most efficient and powerful fighters among dogs, meaning that avoiding dog fights with them is essential. Outside of fighting, a well-trained pit won't be a problem.
@Andrew Crowley I've owned 4 pits and have been around them my whole life. They are indeed more unpredictable than any other breed and are also more aggressive in general
Labs have a side to them my dog is an Akita mix and labradors have it in for him he’s been attacked twice by them and my dog is very social and respectful with other dogs so I’m always wary now of labradors
I'm a pitbull person. I love pitbulls with all my soul. That being said, I never let my pit get away with aggressive behavior. I know the type of people you're talking about, and I agree that they don't realize that they are harming the reputation we tried so hard to build up for them.
I'm all for your objecting to owners that don't try harder to control their dogs especially if it really looks like the owner thinks there is nothing wrong or nothing to do about their dog's behavior. In the dog park I like to start pretending and acting as though the owner does know there is a problem but just has some difficulty in handling their dog: so I get in the problem dog's way and thwart some of the bad behavior planning to quit only if the problem dog threatens me (that's never happened, nor has the dog's owner ever threatened me). Have some of you decided not to get involved as I do because of other owners getting hostile about your interference when you tried? Or do you just not want to get involved because you feel it should not be your problem?
@@nonamenoname246 I always offer to step in or help in situations where dog's are getting aggressive. I never try to put the blame on the owners because they tend to get insulted and refuse help. If an actual dog fight does break out I will step in and get them separated regardless of what the owners want. For the owners who aren't knowledgeable I've always given advice on what to do if they're receptive to it. I've even helped dog owners after their dog bit mine because I rather help the poor pups then have them be put down. I try to help where I can!
That’s something that outside people need to understand though. Yes, as a pür I’ll owner it is your responsibility to erase the stigma of pit bulls, but it’s also others’ responsibility to stop perpetuating the stereotype that all pit bulls possess bad behavior that cannot be corrected. It’s all about the owner and the training. People need to stop clumping all pitbulls and their owners into one group, just like the stigma of Rottweilers.
But dogs bred for gameness will always have to be handled different from one another depending on their individual personality and instinct. You need to know around age 2 - if they are aggressive or not. You won't know that sometimes before it's too late. A trainer specializing in aggression and code-red dog behavior can help determine that without a fight having to happen. Otherwise, be careful and never underestimate your pitbull. If he is aggressive and wants to fight - it's simply instinct, bred by humans, to do so. No reason to be angry at the dog or dislike him. Don't anthropomorphize dogs. Continue to love him but understand you must work with a special trainer and have an open mind that the risk outweighs wanting a dog friendly animal. If she's too much of a risk - just keep her away from other dogs. Period. My pitbull is a people ONLY animal. He's the absolute love of my life. But an enormous responsibility. We owe it to the breed to not discard aggressive pitbulls, we owe it to them to accept them and give them full lives. Even if it means without other dogs near.
I say age 2 because a pitbull can be very friendly and loving to other dogs and pits when they're under 2. Age 2 is when they start to grow into their aggression. Like a puberty. Knowing what I know now, I would never assume a pitbull is not aggressive until I've worked with a trainer until the age of 3 or more. It's not something you want to happen. If you've never seen a pitbull fight, I suggest you watch one. It'll change your life.
Some people are training their dogs to get comfortable around other dogs. I know my older male has such anxiety around people and dogs he doesn't know. He's sweet, but shy. So when our other dogs are running around the park, he stays with us or sits at the tables by himself lol. So for his comfort, we keep him on the leash with us.
You should’ve walked closer to the guy who owns the pitbull and started talking obnoxiously loud about its behavior and narrating it’s body language lol
Diana Boedecker 😪 yeah you just reminded me i saw my neighbors dogs fight each other one day..one was chained up (illegally) and the other had gotten loose..he killed the chained up one 😭 sorry just felt I had to share
@@AO-sz5ci sorry you had to see that. My dog got killed while I was walking her. A pitbull broke thru a window screen from a second floor and jumped down with no hesitation and charged at me. I picked up my chihuahua but the dog was jumping all over me and managed to her jaws on my dog and snatched her out of my arms. I kicked the pit trying to get her to release but it was useless. The owners when they came out had no control on the dog, came out without a leash or a stick or something to get her to release. I filed a police report but long story short they gave me the run around because the cop who took my report did not file as a "dog at large". Finally after 1 month a prosecutor is gonna look at my case and luckily the neighbors survilliance camera caught everything, so I have evidence. The attacking pit had already killed another neightboors dog i found out later. This could have been prevented had there been stricter laws to remove aggressive dogs from irresponsible owners. That pit has a history of agression including attacking 2 other dogs he lives with. Animal control has not done their job.
Karen Flores I’m so sorry. It’s a horrible experience to go through. I hope you get justice. I called Animal Control multiple times as well because the pits were chained up and malnourished. I was very upset at the time w/ the Police for not responding & Animal Control not doing their job in the first place. 😪
@@karenflores4987 People should need to have a permit before they can own certain breeds. Seriously. The amount of incompetent fools who purchase aggressive breeds because it's "cool" need to just stop. Get a corgi or something. That's more your speed.
You shouldn't look at dogs and assume their breed, you should be saying "pit bull looking" or "bully breed dog" BC for all u know that's not an American pit bull terrier it could be something completely different, if you love the breed you would know what kind of labels they have and why people look down on the breed so much, my friend had a lab/boxer mix and people thought it was a pitty all the time but we knew there wasn't BC it was an accidental litter their other dogs had, so just cause it looks pitty doesn't mean it is, never assume a dog's breed BC you never know who's listening/watching and you could end up feeding into stereotype
She’s literally bred pitbulls and corrects herself later on at around the 10:34 mark. The least you could do is watch the video before you write a whole paragraph about it.
Jesus! I'm not good at this kind of tension with my dogs. Literally i'm sweating. (Do not misundestand me, i love this kind of videos because i learn so much!!) I think it's really dangerous to have small dogs between the big excited dogs today. Why the owners did not see it? A friend of mine has a female pitbull mix. She attacked my dog, apparently for no reason. My dog is insecure, i know she is a target, but that dog came running and grabed my dog from the neck. Thank God that day my dog had two collars because i was trying a new one. But that dog did not let go my dog!! I'm calm to resolve fights but i HATE them! I agree with Blondie... let's get out of here!!! xD Big hugs for all the pack from Argentina!!
Aaaand that’s why we don’t take our pit to public spaces like this. He would either start a fight like the brindle dog or end up caught up in one and get hurt or hurt someone. I can’t stand people who aren’t aware enough to know that their dog isn’t fit to be out like that. It’s not a damn cage fight, take your crazy animal home!
@@chevellaconrad8836 I can tell you're trying to start a fight. I'm sorry, you're not going to get one here. If you read my comment you'll see exactly what I said :)
I find it very interesting that typically men will get a large breed dog such as a pit bull for status and can not handle their dog and not correct the behavior lol I also noticed that in some dog parks videos of yours Rachel that the people who never corrected their dogs behavior have been the same ones that will complement and ask you about yours dogs 😂
@@awgeez3048 it really does but you should still be careful with pits. I love mine but I recognize that she is not very well socialized with other dogs. She needs a long slow introduction to them.
I love my pits but I also know they have tendencies to carry a fight too far. I am like you, I will be the first one to admit it. I still love them though, and always will. Even with their faults.
This makes me very self aware of my dog at the dog park. I have an 80 pound 8 month old Great Pyrenees. I always have a hard time detecting jerk behavior versus playful behavior. I never know when the right time to “check him” is. But I’m working on it! I’m obsessed with these dog park videos. :)
i love how when talking about pitbulls you generalize them ALL into the exact same category but when your Cane Corso gets into it to dominate and interupt a fight you say its "just midnight that does that" . your so biased toward pitbulls its comical
there is only one true pit bull and it's the American pitbull terrier and it's breed and encouraged by show judges to be aggressive. The dogs you are referring to that are bred to be docile sent even pit bulls.
4 года назад
pit bulls can be generalized, poor breeding and even worse owners with fragile egos
I don't get it, if don't trust my dog to let him of the leash why go to the dogpark? So confusing, makes no sense to me. Every time i see someone with a harness i want to say something about it and i have to hold back so bad.
Im actually really curious because I have used harnesses before. Does it negatively affect how act on walks or is it just bad because she is keeping him leased
It has a negativ affect on how dogs act on a walk. They start pulling on the leash, that is what a harness was primarily invented for. Like when huskys pull sleds.
I know being in the park must be stressful sometimes Rachel, but you make it so interesting to watch. I'm sure glad your pups listen to you. You are amazing.
Yeah. My boy hasn't been able to go to the park anymore because he's gotten attacked twice by pitmixes. He's a big boy and is confident and they do not like it. Both times he's been attacked he wasn't even interacting with that dog.
@@jeddy_bravo I don't understand what breed has to do with it, any dog can be aggressive and regardless of the breed that attacked her dog I don't see why er dog's breed would matter
Merrrr please don’t say things like “when a pit bull gets into it, they want to take care of it”. Don’t stereotype an entire breed. My pitty gets bullied allllllll time because he’s such a push over. He’s been attacked by labs, shepherds and collies. And he just runs to his mama every time. He’s a big baby
The exception does not change the rule. Most pitts are pretty aggressive and dominant sure with good training they can be pretty docile but at their core they are fighters.
@@TS-hz4me You likely take good care of your pups. In the end even with dogs with more aggressive/dominant nature like the Akita im getting will be happy docile dogs if loved trained and cared for correctly.
Ehh, I Would have corrected my dogs if I knew the owner was trying to get his dogs toy back.. I know place is public & it is what it is but still 😐 you were like haha.. he’s trying to get his dogs ball back & his dog has given up bc of my pack
Correct her dogs for what, being dogs and chasing a ball. That's why you don't bring toys to dog parks. If you want to play wit a toy take your dog early am or pm, so none of this happens. You can't blame any dog for chasing a ball whether it's theirs or not. It's what dogs do
@@kimwebb7267 Why not teach your dog the leave it command? It's not just helpful in keeping your dog away from other dog's toys, but from anything that you don't want your dogs around. I think it's rude to allow your dogs to grab others toys and then not do any kind of correction. I have a busy schedule, and I'm not always able to take my dog to a park at an early or late time when there aren't any other dogs.
I'm sorry, I am not going to micro manage my dog at a dog park because you decided to bring a toy. When I bring a toy, I know that other dogs will want it. If another dog takes our toy then too bad, I consider it gone.
got to love how the owner of the pit is just walking around like whatever... , he should either start to show his dog what he/she is doing wrong or leave . if not the dog is never gonna know and there for gonna think hes beeing a good boy/girl. i do understand why u do not tell people anymore because in most peoples mind they are doing good and they are the 'perfect dog trainer/handler' , myself i am studying to become a dog trainer at one point and i have learned alot from the videos u post everyday . love the videos and keep up the good work :)
I don't think you can necessarily label all owners who walk dogs on lead as insecure pet owners. It sounds like you're simply talking from your own experience. I have a wolf dog who is extremely well behaved and easy to handle. Him as well as my other 2 dogs are walked hooked to my belt loop; he could easily rip away and take off if he wanted to. But despite that he walks beside me on a loose lead even when other dogs on leads passing us are barking, lunging, etc. My toddler is usually biking ahead of us. He's amazing around my chickens (I think we have over 30 hens now so it's impossible to walk him through the coop or run without being very close to a hen and he follows me no issues with them flapping all over), dairy goats, and horses. He's off lead at our house 24/7 and I love walking all 3 of them alongside me when we go to town because I find that enjoyable. It keeps me moving, not just sitting down watching them from a distance, like every other day! I feel like between all our animals the dogs get the least of my time lately with kidding season, so for me, it's just to enjoy my dogs. Maverick doesn't mind the goat kids climbing on him and often licks them like a mama dog would. Almost everyday we have antelope come through our property and I hate when they get close to the chicken coop (they eat most of the chicken feed that is out! GRR) So I let Maverick chase them away. He can be at a dead run chasing them and if I call he immediately turns and comes right to me. During the winter he LOVES being outside, but me, not so much (gets to -40) so he's trained to run on the treadmill in the house. I'm also training him for dog skijoring in the winter!! Dogs on lead reacting or misbehaving probably have owner issues ;)
Renew Your Mind I think she or he meant it’s insecure to leash your dog at the park, there are environments that’s call for leasing & that should be obvious to all.
Ok but the area I walk my dog is surrounded by roads and there's stray and aggressive dogs around everywhere. Am I an "insecure" pet owner for not wanting my dog injured?
Why would you bring a dog to a DOG park with a leash on. The whole point of the dog park is to let ur dog be free and have fun. It's just like a child at the playground. You don't bring your child to a play ground and have them stay by you.You go and let them play! Some people really frustrate me😤
I would recommend that. If your dog has serious problems with other dogs the best advice would be a special training with a dog trainer who has the experience and competence and ideally a well tempered dog with whom he can train you and your dog.
in my case having a leash on my dog for once in a dog park was a good thing, there would've been a Boxer-lab being in trouble and a seriously injured Beagle if my dogs hadn't had leashes on.
13min bashing pitbulls and two little dogs starts a huge fight and even midnight joining in and no words and no bashing. Any dog could of got in there doing the same thing that pit was doing. Sigh*
Did u even listen 🤔 she wasn't bashing pits. It's hard to believe but she does have knowledge on pits. In fact, at one point she did breed them. She understands how they can be. She won't sugarcoat it. Besides, a big dog like a pit is alot harder to get control of when it's in a fight than a little dog. She did talk about the terrier being the problem. As for Midnight, she called her off
I think it really helps people like me who watch your videos about dog behaviour to see what the jerk attitude looks like. Because for me I can have someone explain till they are blue in the face and I can think I get it, but it helps so much to see it in action! So thanks for taking one for the team so people like me can have actual examples!
That sort of thing is what caught my eye the first video I ever saw from Rachel. She teaches and explains WHY things are happening, it's so important to me. Just watching the babies run around is enjoyable, but learning what they are doing and why they do it is educational and I just love that! 💕❤💕
@@cuterpooter I agree! I have been around dogs and training my own dogs I have done my own research and what not, but seeing it in action is super helpful! And with dog training I think you can always learn new things because every dog is different!
I can never take my dog to the dog park. Because of the fact that he's a pitbull the other owners end up leaving or we get asked to leave. I'm not a confrontational person so I usually leave and cry later lol sucks how people view certain types of dogs
I love the way that Blondie and Midnight are not even paying that much attention to the other dogs having rows. Midnight just showing dominant behaviour and still listened to you, that shows respect for you. I completely agree that little dogs and big dogs play so differently
All dogs (especially terriers) when they really get into it want to fight to the end, it's just that pits are more capable of doing damage than many other breeds. I personally like to adopt shelter pits and think breeding should be banned until all shelters are empty. My last pit loved all animals unless they tried domination but he got along with my cats & accepted that they ran the place. My current pit is hyper-reactive & I don't let her off leash except with dogs I know she gets along with. She gets along with 2 of 4 cats. She's actually better with small dogs as she's not immediately afraid of them. Larger dogs take time. (Based on very scarred and torn ears I think she may have been a bait dog).
@@kirkmo1666 My boys were 3 & 6 when we adopted our 1st pit. My biggest problems were the looks other parents gave me picking the boys up from school. Like with any breed with proper training & socialization they are sweet family pets.
@@mikeylikey710 Training is absolutely key but dogs also have individual personalities (regardless of breed) like people and some do better with children than others. It's also been my experience that along with training "work breeds" also need a structured life involving lots of exhausting play & exercise. Tired happy dogs don't cause trouble is my philosophy.
i would 100% support you on banning breeding if there wasn’t some reasons for it. i had to buy from a breeder cause we needed a puppy to train for service work, since training a full adult dog won’t get as far with it. we also got him at a young age because my brother is terrified of bigger dogs and if he grew up with him, he’d be better with the dog. my mom also was against having a standard black and tan shepherd because two of them mauled her poodle when she was younger (don’t blame her, tbh i wouldn’t trust the breed after it either) so instead she was able to negotiate with a white gsd and we got that. once i’ve moved out i’ll definitely adopt, though. i have always wanted to and there are many dogs in need of homes in shelters. though, buying a puppy is okay if there are reasons.
i will never take my dogs to the dog park. all you can really do is make sure your dog is trained and you are responsible. but you can't control other people and that's what makes me nervous. i really appreciate your honesty about your dogs, and your blunt opinions. it's refreshing to see someone who will acknowledge the issues their dogs have.
It’s better to put them in doggy daycare. The biggest issue is the owner being there. Dogs are usually better together with the owner removed in a controlled setting
You always teach us lots of stuff on canine behaviour and I really admire your knowledge. I'm always struggling trying to understand what's happening between dogs and don't know where to find answers. Your videos help a lot. I was also wondering if you'll ever do a video just about behaviour, like to teach us what is what, what should we correct and what is normal etc.. Like a guide on postures and interactions, dunno. It'd be awesome.
She’s scared of the dogs, so I think she keeps hers harnessed, thinking she can control the dog. It’s scary when your dog roams free. I feel that way, and I admire you so much that you’re not scared of dogs or your own dogs. Love you Rachel! Ps, I love dogs!!! mine are lap dogs though hahahaha a 12 year old shih tzu and a new baby chihuahua just joined us! 🥰
Jesus The Huncho Dogs aren’t born knowing what they should and shouldn’t be doing, a puppy has every right to do things wrong. Teaching can’t be done properly without a few mistakes to use as examples. That dog isn’t being taught, if anything is being enabled in his bad behavior. That’s like saying parents with young children can’t talk about how rude someone else’s teenager is just because the small child is rude as well.
Jesus The Huncho Children and puppies must be disciplined, you would expect teens/adults and adult dogs to already be somewhat trained and knowledgeable. This dog clearly runs rampant and does whatever it pleases.
No joke, i have incidents EVERY time i take my dog out, from other badly trained humans, leashless dogs with no owners in site, aggressive dogs, thank the gods i trained my dog but it's never enough, thank you for these videos
It was nerve racking for a minute there. Midnight! That pitbull owner was too busy admiring your beautiful dogs to handle his own dogs behavior. Blondie was like, "Let's go!"
How are owners this clueless on dog behavior?! Shouldn’t a person know dog behavior when they own dogs? Especially when dealing with breeds that can be a problem...
jason martinez & Flint but thats what I’m sayin’! There SHOULDN’T be ANYBODY that’s dumb or oblivious. Just like it’s a REQUIREMENT to take a class before u own a gun, it should be REQUIRED to LEARN dog behavior BEFORE owning a dog. Just like guns are getting blamed for all these mass shootings INSTEAD of the people who are pulling the trigger, these breeds are getting blamed instead of the owner, WHEN it’s the OWNERS responsibility to make sure things don’t happen.
Some people get dogs that can be problems because it makes up for their tiny dicks. They let the dog go crazy because they think it's cool. Little do they know, it makes them look incompetent and foolish.
you spend most of the video repeating yourself about 1 bad owner then blaming the dogs ( we both know that the owner is at fault and both that owner and dog should not be in the park ) .. I know the breed also, white Pitbull is on leash to learn social skills as the owner walks it around, even with it's tail high at times because it believes it is working (harnesses are meant for pulling and work ) it is not aggressive to people or other dogs, but it is something the owner needs to address before it becomes a big problem. she need to learn to be a leader that is for sure.
Why are you laughing when your dogs “steal” the balls belonging to other dogs. Why don’t you correct your dogs? Your dogs are causing a problem. Your dog is “locked and loaded”? Why don’t you bring a ball for your dogs to play with and put your camera down. Why is it okay for your dogs to dominate someone else’s ball? I don’t get it! Put your camera down!!!
She Collects and you are a fantastic person for that! Instead of being prideful like others! I love my pit mixes but I know they can be little warriors too lol! Thank you for being a great owner!
It’s funny to see the stigma everyone still has on “pitbulls”. Stop blaming the dog and put it on the owner. Every dog can be dominant regardless of breed. It’s about how they are raised. Tired of people thinking pitbulls are just trouble makers
Your Mom Yep, generally Pit Bulls are well behaved dogs and rarely start trouble. My Bull terrier is the same but he has been attacked so many times in public parks that I gave the park up. Even though he never started the trouble I would muzzle him for the confidence of other dog owners but after he then got attacked again whilst muzzled I never muzzled him again. Incidentally I took the muzzle off during the attack much too the owners reluctance but it needed to be done for my dog to protect himself of which he did and very effectively. The attacking dog lost but thankfully with no serious injury. The problem was with the ignorance of the bystanders that ensued after the dogs were untangled they went as far as to beat me and my dogs with their fists presuming my dog was the attacker. They also lost.
Dana Tunbridge Generally I find all Bull terriers breeds tend to be more defensive than offensive. Over here in the UK a lot of people walk around with their Staffordshire’s off the lead/leash in the street. Obviously with some dogs you can’t but then if that’s the case then it’s down to the owner to discern the dogs character as some dogs will attack a lot of the time no matter how well you train them.
Your content is very interesting and I think bringing insight to potential behavioral issues in the dog park is useful. However, your commentary does come across very judgmental and condescending. You never know what a dog’s background is, or what training and socialization the owner is working on. You can inform people without shaming them
I listened up until 13:04 & a good pit bull owner shouldnt take their dogs to dog parks- NOT because they “over-react” but because if something does pop off- they usually get the blame.
They usually get the blame because they are always in the midlle of the drama. :) Pitbulls are really really intense breed to have and require insane skill and a lot of training and time input into them. And 95% of owners are not capable of that. Some breeds should be given only to people that have some sort of licence to prove that they can handle this type of dogs. The problem is not in the dogs is in the people and thats why we should regulate who gets to have this dogs that in the wrong hands are a loaded gun without safetty.
I have a very dominant Shollie and other intact males like to single out my dog. He doesn’t start fights, but because he’s intact (fixin’ to get neutered) males like to try to go after him. My dog tries to mind his business but when I see him even show a little bit of bad behavior I put him on leash timeout (I leash him for 10 minutes for him to calm down) and it usually works. I hate when owners don’t check their dogs and don’t take their pet home when it’s being aggressive.
Blondie has gotten so big!!! I can see that behavior issue. It's interesting. I think it's more about untrained humans. That's one of the reason I don't own a dog. I don't think I'm ready to commit to do the work daily in order to obtain the dog I want. What surprises me in this video is that pitbull owner didn't really watch his dog, even from afar. He was back to his dog for a long period of time. How can he prevent unwanted behavior ? A lot of what's going on iis silent. The moment all the dogs start barking and nipping, it's too late.
“Not willing to let them just agree to disagree” What a brilliant way to put into words. I had this happen with a pitbull at my dog park. My GSD is about a year old and massive (my grandad calls him a horse) and one day we were in the park with a undisciplined juvenile pitbull who just wouldn’t leave my dog alone. the pit would get amped up and my dog would try to leave but the pit pursued him. Ran my dog ragged. Eventually my dog ran to me for help and the pit jumped on top of him trying to put him on the ground. i had to literally pull the pit (by his fancy harness) off my dog. Not saying that they can’t be great dogs but they need to be put in their place every once in a while.
These videos help me so much! I have a 5 month 62 pound Rottweiler and he’s a sweetheart but this helps me know if another dog is starting trouble. With such big and strong dogs you don’t wanna take the chance of something bad happening.
I see your dog trying to start a fight and all you do is growl bad dog?? You need to check yourself, criticizing every dog saying they should do something about that but your dog is no better
Her dog wasn’t starting a fight , she got caught in the middle of it and was on edge, and her reason for saying bad dog is because Midnight didn’t back off as fast as she likes..
I watched the video a lot of times. I look for details of dog behaviour. :D In the last fight 13:40, Blondie looked interested and went with Midnight to see what was happening but it seemed that she did not know what to do when lost Midnight into the figth. The body language of Midnight was different than Blondie. She had her target between the eyes. She went directly to the big black dog that was "eating" a small dog. I guess that the action of the girl with a glass of putting Midnight between her legs, snapped Midnight off.
she wasn’t bad talking she was simply saying facts she never said one bad thing she was just saying how that dog needed to be corrected for being so aggressive and dominate i myself am a pitbull lover and have a red nose pitbull who has never had aggressive behavior and i’ve also have had one that had aggressive behavior and i understand what she’s saying she’s just educated and knows what she’s talking about and she’s allowed to have opinions and hers is she wouldn’t personally pick a pitbull over another type of dog and that’s okay and understandable
Loki Lockness i personally don’t know about tails and i get that it’s messed up and some people do it for looks but you can’t judge some for that it’s common for some people to do that many breeds have that
I have a pitbull love the breed. She's right. The owners don't check their dog aggression. They start fights because they are overly dominant with other dogs and need to get checked by their owners.
the only thing I didn't like about this video is the way you talk down on Pitbull's. like most dogs with a bad trainer or owner wouldn't respond in the same manner I have been training and breeding Pitbull's for 15 years now and I haven't had not one situation where my pups or adult Pitbull's alike wouldn't stop and come off a simple command no matter what the situation was.
13:46 she is talking about how pits dont bark and they just fight and saying they're aggressive then a fight breaks out with the little dogs 😂😂 all dogs are the same it just depends on the owner, like that fight didn't seem bad cos they're little so you dont see threat but if they were bigger it be dangerous, bet those little dogs are more aggressive they also may know who to be aggressive with. Delete my comment dont care, but just know you dont know much.
The people who are going to give you grief over what you're observing are the ones that can't open their minds. I have a pitbull blend and I am looking for tips on how to better myself and him in public because he's already leash reactive and dominant.
they are great but its like having a full time job whitout pay, after owning close to 10 dogs in my life all powerfull breeds, the pitt was the hardest one for sure, all dogs can get into fights but when its the pitbull fighting you are gonna get in a big trouble
@@nahuel._ FULL time job yes LOL that's the truth but the pay is in gold having the best dog in the world the APBT the sacrifice is worth every minute.
With uncaring owners like that is why people have dog phobias. I grew up in an environment like that with untrained dogs and I've had to stop fights with other unknown dogs to protect mine and it was a big rottweiler and a pitty. If your dog cant handle itself dont get one cause obviously you cant either. Lol. But ya man idk how you do it anxiety level rocket high. Why I dont go to dog parks. Thanks for the content sorry this seems to happen to you.
I raised pits for over 20 years. One day one of your dogs will surprise you and it may not be good for you. Sometimes things get real a whole lot faster than you can react no matter how smart you think you are about aggressive dog breeds.
I really appreciate the your channel. A lot of dog owners are so untrained and that's why the dogs behave the way they do. They allow aggression to go unchecked and when the dogs attack other dogs or children......then they apologize and yell at the dog. They need to curb the behavior from home. Thanks for posting! Good training for dog owners of which I will be in a few weeks!
lol - Let's go to the Dog park and sit around, record people and talk about how bad their dogs are compared to my dogs. "OMG that pit bull needs correction, look at him pissing everywhere. So dominant." "OMG why does she have him on a harness, that is so perplexing to me." Feels like a child's playground.
Yeah I gotta agree with ya on with the pit bulls, they don’t really take pressure easily and over react.funny. How two dogs changed the whole dynamic of the dog park.
What gets me is the amount of dogs without collar s on ( prob just because it’s law here 🇬🇧) your dogs have good recall but a lot don’t and if they had collars on their owners can grab them rather than follow them about because the dogs slip out of their hands. Your dogs are beautiful absolutely beautiful
Absolutely!!!!! My thoughts exactly. Dogs should ALWAYS have a collar when in public (especially!). Owners have to have a way to grab and separate them if necessary. No collar makes that very difficult.
Midnight came to the rescue of that poor little dog the other black dog was shaking. 13:40 midnight seen what the big dog was doing to the little dog and probably was tryna break it up. ----Also phewww woah i’m glad that brindle pit didn’t get involved in the huge altercation, I have pit/ dogo argentina mixes too and know that they don’t go looking for trouble but if a dog keeps following them giving them a problem they will not bck down. It’s always other pit-bulls that they’ve had altercations with, they just test each other too much within their breed and then don’t bck down.
I am not sure why every one thinks they can own a pit bull. This goes both way's owners that do not know how to be the Alpha is the problem & training. I would say 65% of pit pull owner's should not have that dog breed. As it is a advanced breed/pet. Its like owning a raccoon, Lynx, puma, witch our very advanced pet's. I know I may receive hate for the pit bull stuff, but it is so true. A lot of BAD Owner's give a good breed a bad name.
@@shareefthechief so then why does she have this "complete" decision that the pit was the problem from the beginning and well into the video, being on a harness or leash is? Point is it wasnt the pits fault and i heard that in her tone so yes it got under my skin when she immediately went after a pit
@@MIZZKIE actually i did watch the whole video and maybe you didnt. Glad she was a pitbull owner but it doesnt change facts, she blamed the pit from the start. Look i just want to say just because someone 'used' to have a pit doesnt make them an expert on the bread, and clearly she was wrong....by the whay whats wrong with me pointing this out?
Do you have pictures or videos of your old pitbulls that we can see? Also the Cane corso has slowly become one of my dream dog breeds alongside the Belgian Malinois because of your videos. My favorites are Midnight & Preacher. I can't wait until Preacher comes back! ♡
