Working With A Highly Touch Aggressive Husky 

Dogs don't try to waste in their sleeping space, it just didn't have a choice.

@@moodist1erit was accident for sure. Great insight tho!

lol probably.

"You're not correcting the dog. You're punishing the dog. Negative reinforcement is the removal of positive reinforcement (which makes not sense lol). This dog is high on cortisol. " something along these lines 😂😂 I actually like some things he says but most of the time he is on the peak of Danning Kruger and kinda rude

@@loyal_dogs LOL!

plenty asked that. Come to a seminar next time and you'll see for yourself!

@@MiracleK9Training I didn’t see it in the video. Did I miss that part?

@@WokelandDefector yeah, you missed the whole 12 hour seminar where we answered dozens of questions that didn’t make the full videos!

@@MiracleK9Training So you leave out the most important piece of information from the video - WHY is the dog behaving that way? What was the answer? Do they know what the cause of the behavior is?

did what hurt? lol.

!

I agree with almost everything you said - the conditioned relaxation part. I think that whole concept is a load of crap lol.

@MiracleK9Training I used to too! You're good

What did we do that WASN’T gentle?

That dog is terrified all-the-time. That is the crux of the problem. You won't help him by coddling him forever. There is a difference between doing what is uncomfortable now, but helpful for the dog long-term, VS doing what feels good to you. A lot of people who coddle their fearful dogs don't do it because it's good for their dogs. They do it because it feels good to them. And that's selfish.

No questions into WHY the dog is terrified? Has anyone asked if the dog is in pain? And why is the dog in a muzzle? Y This guy is not a vet administering necessary medical treatment. Have some balls and take the muzzle off! Let’s see how much more respect you treat the dog with when he is allowed to correct you for ignoring his boundaries.

@@WokelandDefector how many comments you trying to leave on this video? Am I the only lucky person that gets like 12 comments overnight from you or do you spend all day doing this LOL.

because these dogs are going to die if they don't learn better ways to handle the situations they don't like. you can't avoid them forever before they rear their ugly head when they decide there is something else they "don't like".

@@MiracleK9Training Are you saying this is the only way to address this problem. I have worked with hundreds of dogs and I don't need to put them in a state of helplessness. Also you made the statement that the technique is not aversive to the dog. How can you know that? what's your evidence. I can accomplish the same thing without putting them in that state. I am not trying to be negative , I am just trying to understand your reasoning.

@@brucemacwatters9221 “inherently” aversive. The dog has a perception that something aversive is going to happen which makes it aversive. BUT at its nature we can argue petting a dog is not generally a highly aversive experience. But there are levels and nuances to this conversation your forgetting. As far as “your way”. If it’s working hell yeah. I’m sure people would benifit from seeing some videos of you working with dogs like this though :)

@@MiracleK9Training If the dog has the perception that something is a threat then the dog automatically goes into fight.flight or freeze. This is an involuntary response. When you take away the dogs natural instincts by having him in a muzzle , on leash and subject him to touching, The dog soon realizes that he can’t do anything (learned helplessness. The dog gives up. Then your audience sees that the dog isn’t doing the behavior and everyone thinks your technique is working. It’s just adding more stress to the dog . As a dog trainer I dont agree with your method. I dont think you are helping the dog at all. Putting a dog in this situation i would argue is aversive whether it is perceived or not

​@@brucemacwatters9221 I can understand where your coming from. Have you read the study about learned helplessness with the electric floors? It seems to have become a buzzword and no one mentions that you can cure learned helplessness and teach the dogs that they aren't helpless. I believe that's what he's doing here as the initial process before the rest of the training (feel free to correct me if I'm wrong) I work in Cambodia so I work with a lot of street dogs and some from the dog meat trade. One of my client's dogs took 2 years to start coming over to her, wanting to be touched and still hates going outside. When I visit she's in full flight untill she freezes in her crate. As a dog trainer I'm sure you would have dealt with something similar, by simply being in that dogs presence, you are being aversive or taking them outside would cause them to freak out. If I constantly take all the time possible untill the dog is 100% ready and decides on their own to start working with me, it would cost my client a fortune even though I charge $10 an hour 😂 I'm not sure if I would go as fast or as hard as David but I do not have the experience or results he has, and his review page checks out. If there's a more efficient, effective and kinder way to do it, I believe 100% that people would do it, but for whatever reason people don't show it so if you have a better way that would be amazing to see. And you don't need to force a dog to react this way for a video clip, it will just happen when you meet them for the first time. I do strongly believe if you disagree with an online dog trainer, grab a camera and show a better method and the evidence will speak for it's self. 😁 All the best man 🙏

Shibas are one of my least favorite breeds to work with haha. We have a video serious on this channel that was some of the first ones we ever posted highlight a shiba mochi that was one of the worst screamers ever.
