This Dog Was Ready To Bite Me And Her Muzzle Came Off 🫢 

Me too, love his videos

Have fear of persons, not of the animals; animals way to be is a reflect most of times of the owners, and also untrained.

You just need to watch through to the end. Most people judge because of those first few minutes where DD is showing the dog that its antics won't work on him. And once they calm down enough to be able to listen, that's when the real training begins. DD made a PR mistake in showing abridged reels that highlighted the difficult first minutes and jumped towards the end to show the transformation. People are too influenced by optics and are quick to judge and don't bother to analyze what they see at the end of the reel.

He is amazing, seriously. I'm still shocked every time I watch him & see the dogs have a complete change of attitude within minutes. He is literally saving lives of countless dogs by working them through their fear and aggression & by teaching their owners to do so, as well. I'm happy to know that your opinion changed. Agusto doesn't deserve the hate & criticism he receives so often. Thank you for keeping an open mind! 💕💕💕

So many evil trainers spreading misinformation. So many evil people profit off the misery of thrse animals.

Yes, that's what I saw too, she stopped trying to bite immediately it came off.

It's as if the muzzle actually empowered her to attack. Usually a muzzle has a psychological effect on the dog to be less aggressive coz they know they can't bite. I find it weird that, in this case, it had the opposite effect.

@@dianadelcastillo1896Yes, it seems to me that she regards the muzzle as a protection from other dogs, like a barrier to prevent other dogs from attacking and biting her. It's similar to my wearing glasses, I feel naked without my glasses on and more vulnerable!!! This dog feels vulnerable without her muzzle. Quite weird as you say. But it shows that each dog has to be treated case by case.

@@user-hj6zz7ji2dI think she sees the muzzle as a barrier protecting her from attack by other dogs - rather like a suit of armour!! Very strange. I'm glad I'm not the only person who noticed it.

Yes that makes sense. It was like a switch had been flicked when she saw the muzzle fly onto the floor, she went from very aggressive to submissive in an instant. Like you said, it was strange to see.

Same for me, I'm also scared of (certain) dogs and can get very tense when they bark behind a fence etc. I love watching these videos in order to understand dogs better. I also find it impressive how calm Dog Daddy stays, even with the most aggressive dogs- and how the dogs respond to that calm and secure presence. I started to practice relaxing my tense muscles when I walk by a fence with a barking dog behind it. I think they actually even bark less aggressively when I am calmer (or at least I imagine that 🙃). Thank you for sharing!

A-men!!!

Why would DD include that if it’s bad advice and goes against his teachings..? I think you misunderstood her. Scolding is more like yelling in an agitated manner “YOU’RE A BAD GIRL!!! STOP IT RIGHT NOW! BAD DOG! BAD DOG! BAD DOG!” Calmly but firmly saying “No” or “leave it” isn’t scolding so I highly doubt that’s what she meant. I think she was just saying what part of the training she learned she thinks will work best for her dog which is giving praise when her dog does something right. That isn’t to say she’s not going to utilize other parts of the training ie giving corrections when her dog does something wrong. She even talks about the prong collar right after which we know is used to reinforce verbal corrections.

@@stancexpunks First of all, I don't think my comment contradicted what DD taught. I don't recall him saying not to scold? But anyway, I did qualify my comment by saying I assumed she meant verbal corrections. But judging by her mild energy and her tendency to coddle the dog, I have to wonder if she will be able to be consistently firm with her dog. Her dog looked to be looking for leadership which is why, in spite of being fearful, she seems happy to follow DD. And yes, I was impressed that she was willing to use a prong collar. Honestly, I hope I'm wrong about her failing. She clearly loves her dog, and I think her dog isn't a mean-aggressive dog. She just needs leadership.

You did misunderstand. Artemis is very sweet, loving, and obedient when she is at home. She responds well to positive reinforcement and I am firm with her. But I don't believe in actually scolding her by yelling or calling her a bad dog. The issues arise when we go out. I haven't used the prong collar because I wanted to learn how to use it first, because she's already had enough pain in her life, I will not cause her more by using it incorrectly. I am so grateful that DD showed us how to use the collar. Now it's going to be about practice. But I appreciate your concern, but no worries, I am more dedicated to Artemis than most people are to their kids. Lol. If you're interested in updates on her progress, I welcome a message and am happy to share.
