Thanks for you honesty and willingness to share your traditional views. Kids flourish with a dad and a mom, no matter what our current culture proclaims.
Yes they do! And for the first time in history we've got a couple generations that have a very large group of people raised in broken homes that don't have both a mom and dad in the home and the results cannot be overlooked!
Feminism and the sexual revolution have literally destroyed families and societies, by design
I love how this turned from a dog training podcast to a 2 friends rant about everything podcast hahaha. Will continue tuning in, maybe next week they'll talk about aliens.
Don’t give them ideas. 😂
aliens and bigfoot

This cold, hard truth is sorely needed. I rode down our apartment building elevator (in a big city) this morning with a couple, their ~4-year old son, and their newly acquired border collie puppy. The puppy was adorable but I couldn't help thinking "do they really understand what they're in for?" It is a family commitment and it involves making sacrifices.
1. Having dog was my childhood dream.
2. Kids grow up, dogs stay dogs forever.
3. I love walking with dog. Walking is good for health.
Now I feel like I will have one dog always. Have two now and I think one is enough.
Nicely said! I love #3
Walking is healthy. Did you know you can choose to walk without getting a dog?
@@allprolb20 😂😂😂 Thanks, did not know that. will get rid of my dogs now and walk alone. very usefull information. 🤣🤣🤣walking alone is boring, sometimes you can be just lazy, but if you have a dog, you have to take it for a walk every day, twice. of course if you are good dog owner.
I can’t help but comment again.. I’m a 74 years young grandma and my husband the father of my two sons was the rock in our family. I was the heart..he was the rock.. he was 10 years older than me, and in a different generation, but he was strong and gentle at the same time. Our two sons knew that he would always be there for them, and he was until he died of cancer at 80 years old.. my sons are now adults and wonderful men and I’m proud to say that they’re following in their father’s footsteps in so many ways: strong, kind, gentle responsible, and loving adults.❤❤❤❤
We have 3 dogs. When we had a house and my brother was still alive, we had no issues. Id walk them, id play with them, id feed them, and my mom and brother, they'd take care of them while I went off working 40-80 hours a week. After covid, lost that job, went from making 27 an hour beyond full time to 19.50 an hour less than full time. They had to work more, rent went up. We were all homeless after they raised rent 700 dollars. From november 17th to august 19th. My brother didnt make it, but my dogs did. They kept us sane and scared off the coyotes and tweakers. 9 montha of 120 degree heat in the Mohave, we kep the AC on full blast in our car. Now we are living some friends who saved us, im working full time again, but we are down an income and my mother is still damaged from it all. We tried rehoming them for the first 5 months, but nobody wanted them, and the no kill shelters were full. Now we have our dogs living between the garage and the backyard. I can only walk them in the mornings. We got a water fountain for them. We make do, but this is not the life I wanted for any of us. We got these dogs expecting that I would be making 5000 dollars every two weeks in a place that cost 1550, 2000 at most, not 2780.
I’m sorry your world got flipped upside down like that. That’s a life not many people could endure. I wish you and your family strength to keep pushing on and that one day things change for the better
Keep going brother. I'm in a similar situation. I know how you feel.
I got a dog because I'm disabled and disabled time dies slowly. Plus I thought hugging the dog might help with my fibromyalgia. Amazingly, it worked.
Puppy power!
I got my bullmastiff mix because I’m disabled and am owner training him to be an assistance dog (service dog in the US and some other countries).
I have fibromyalgia too, on top of a few other things that sometimes go along with it.
I definitely wouldn’t be as active or “happy” as I am now without my boys, they can definitely be a healing part of life if you are able to have them. 👌🏽
Yeah Chip can't be invisible enough to be a service dog. We tried self-training him too. He's just too sociable and making him be invisible felt cruel. The boy wants to befriend everyone so I'll let him. @@reneemckinnon5731
oxytocin :)
And how much training and exercise does your dog get when it’s trapped with an owner who can’t exercise?
This is the MOST honest discussion of dog ownership you’ll hear anywhere. Joel - we watch your work because you’re truthful, and not afraid of what anyone thinks. Unlike most - You’re honest about what it would really take for you to sell-out to a corp sponsor ($1M +) and until then; you’ll tell us the real deal. 👏👏👏
💯
Beckman you have the best sense of dry humor!!!
I am a huge proponent of fostering before adopting, I fostered three adult dogs before deciding to adopt a 8 week puppy. Lots of time and money later, I have a dog that stayed in a hotel last night and joined us in the hotel bar for dinner (pet friendly establishment). Many people adopt older dogs because they are concerned about potty training. These are the exact people that shouldn’t be adopting adult dogs - if they don’t want to take the time to potty train a puppy there is no way they are prepared to handle or train a dog with reactivity, aggression, or resource guarding issues. People don’t do their research.
I just want sleep 😂
Four minutes in: But Joel … We all need more love. Adding to the family helps love grow exponentially. A beautiful thing. 🎼 What the world needs now is love, sweet love. 🎼
I have had dogs my whole life. Never really thought about why. I think i have dogs bc i love dogs.
Imagine being so simple that you never think about the decisions you make in life.
The most important thing with a homemade fresh diet raw or cooked is making sure it's balanced and finding a trusted source for information. We do raw and gently cooked diets in our house my wife does raw and i cook for my dog. I spent a lot of time learning about dog nutrition so I could understand things because there is a lot of conflicting and down right dangerous information out there. I really enjoy this topic.
I think the best thing you can do is put the diet together yourself then decide if you want to use a supplement or how you want to go about it. My diet is completely balanced but it's a lot of different things more than a recipe can hold its a long list of foods then a set of rules and a ratio to stick to with some knowledge on what should be fed in small amounts and what can go in every meal or what is good once a week i have a checklist and notes. I also give a supplement but it's not needed with my diet.
It's worth the trouble of learning about dog diet because you'll have a better understanding of a lot of things. But no matter how you do it I think you'll find your groove how you like to do it and then you'll be able to reduce costs. I'd suggest buying a freezer to stock up on meat when it's on sale. For example we got a bunch of turkeys after Thanksgiving for 31 cents a pound.
If you put the diet together yourself you can control the cost much better. It's still not cheap necessarily but it's nowhere near the cost of the pre-made good foods. Kibble isn't even worth comparing to a fresh diet at all. If your spending 600 per month on pre-made I think you could cut that in half or almost in half. 300-400. As time goes on and you learn more and find options and sales to stock up you can reduce the cost. But you really should stick a chest freezer somewhere.
The first thing you'll probably notice after feeding fresh is the dog smells better and their ears stay cleaner and don't get all yeasty in some dogs and their poo is smaller and less often and their mood is better their skin and coat is nicer. I'm sure you'll notice something.
Edit: I also wanted to add that it's good to research your specific breed as well and build a diet for them. Thats what I did after researching dog diet as a whole I then looked into labrador specific diet and needs. But it's best to start out researching general dog diet I think.
I got a dog because I love dogs. They're fascinating to me. They're also great (silent)company (my dogs have all been quiet non barking dogs). I got a second dog because I wanted my dog to have company and I always wanted more than 1 dog. The third dog was given to me, a retired working dog, and the guy who had her said he couldn't think of a better home for her. I may not always have 3 dogs but at the moment it's all good. They sleep together all curled up, they're kind and respectful to each other, only bit that's slightly tricky is I don't walk them all together due to their high prey drive so I walk twice a day, but that's not really an issue and gets me out. If anyone still reading this, having a "pack" of dogs in your home is so interesting, watching them communicate, care for and clean each other, that's why I love dogs. Although they're my "babies", they're still dogs 🙏
Parents that get dogs and place all of the responsibility on their children are usually also the parents that never modeled discipline for their children so both the dog and the children are setup to fail
Chores at a young age help with responsibility. Don't do for them what they can do for themselves. 🌟
I have to disagree with you about "if you can have kids, you should." There are a TON of people who should absolutely NOT have kids. They shouldn't have kids any more than they should have a dog. There are far too many people having kids for the same reason they get a dog, because they want something to love them. They need to get themselves sorted out first. You need to have kids for the right reason and be mentally, physically, emotionally, and financially prepared for the huge responsibility of children. In my work, I see way too many children screwed up by parents who should never have had kids in the first place.
I kindof agree but truth be told, most of us wouldn't be here if pur grandparents didn't have kids left and right. In reality perfect or even good enough doesn't truly exist. Noone should have kids. Yet everyone shoulda coulda woulda
id agree to a point. All those things but financial. Yes you should have a job and money, but some people dont have alot of options but have a job and 😊are still good people. As long as you care and can put food on the table, your ahead of alot of people
That's not how they did it in the old days😄
@@Lifeisawheelie I don't mean that people have to be perfect or have millions of dollars or anything, but if you don't know where your next meal is coming from, you're constantly behind on bills, you are always screaming at your dog, and you have a mental breakdown once a week, maybe reconsider having kids.
I tell my clients who are worried about screwing up their kids "you ARE going to mess up your kids." It's just a given. We aren't perfect, we are going to make mistakes, and that shouldn't stop you from having kids. But having kids should be taken a bit more seriously than I think a lot of people consider it.
@@LAWise520 good point. I think Gaza is a prime example of this. Having 5 kids per woman while in gaza, and then complain that you can't feed the kids when +50% of the population is under 18, is kind of an own goal. I'm not justifying israels role in this, i just think the demographics prove an important point. Same point that you'te making. But i would agree with joel 100% if he had said prioritize kids over dogs. Have kids, don't have dogs and go into wage slavery. Have kids instead. I'd rather have lived in a poor family than in the economically viable family i was born into, if poverty meant less obsession with having and more focus on giving and caring. Personally i'd like to be rich and have kids, but i'm not gonna work my ass off while sending the kids to be taught blowjoblessons and pledging allegiance to a flag 40 hours a week. I would however consider having kids while poor. Some of the best people in the world came from families that were struggling to make ends meet. Some of the worst people among us were raised in wealthy families. But i really don't think the money are important. Struggles make masters.
I wanna see videos of Joel training the cats!! 😻
💥😂💥😂💥 Laughed so hard in the first quarter of this episode😂 side note-my Irish Wolfhound is a VERY special needs guy, and he is worth every second of sacrifice & $ spent on him🥰 💥😂💥😂💥
*There was a story about that Target stalking shit, basically a group of people/ spotter following a lady and her young daughter around and outside the store, happened close to me. A mutual friend of mine experienced it, was like last December during the Christmas shopping season. Gotta be vigilant. I teach my daughter to be aware of her surroundings stay away from creepy looking people, vans without windows in parking lots etc.*
*We wont always be there to save them as Father's so we have an obligation to teach. My mind goes to the same place man, I get it. Keep it up guys, good POD . See ya next week!* 💯
You know my partner got a puppy 10+ years ago and realised how it could be raising one. Between time, training, space needed, etc. he decided the next dog if he even gets one will only be in circumstances where he had the time resources and mental space to do so. And we have a great dog. Much different from his first experience.
Throttle to me means doing something so fast and not having attention to doing it correctly or straight up f'ing it up haha
Bam! Eric nailed it, the Pet Industrial Complex definitely wants anybody and everybody to get a dog, hell get several. More $$$$$$$$$$$$$ for them.
You are so right! So many people should not have dogs! They don’t have time or don’t won’t invest in training. I train dogs, raised and bred dogs for 30 years. I stopped breeding (I only had one litter per years …Boerboels) and found how irresponsible some of the owners were!
So not fair to the dogs!
Last week's podcast was my favorite one ever, until this one. You opened it up with a truth bomb that I have concluded, myself. At least 90% of people that own dogs, should not own dogs, because they're usually following their heart and not logically thinking through all that's required; how one can reasonably meet the needs of that dog, the responsibility that comes with that dog and how much a dog will change their lives if they responsibly care for that dog and what actual, practical benefit comes with a dog.
Thanks for the follow up about by product meal. I am in Pennsylvania and did not make the "do this all day compilation." I watched the first 10 or so podcasts in the span of like 1-2 weeks.
I’ve had dogs all my life and yes, they did get me out for wonderful hikes in the woods in the sierra Nevada’s..
I liked to hike with only my dog.. leave the husband at home with the kids and do my meditation walk with my dog.. my last dog Sophie was a great companion to me after my husband died, and liked to curl up under the covers.
After a long illness, she died last year, and though I miss her a great deal and have been without a dog for the last 12 months, it feels good to be free of that responsibility. My children are grown and now I am a first time grandma at 74 and I plan to enjoy my first grandchild without a dog.
Your advice about having a dog is spot on Joel. Thank you for sharing that with all of us. …always an interesting and important podcast!..
I too have a cat... I'm here for the dog talk...don't mind the cat stuff occasionally tho 😂
I love my Dog…now lol!
I haven’t had a dog for 35 years because of exactly this reason, to much work and very time consuming… so after 35 years, Two weeks after getting my 8 week old Karelian Bear Dog, I thought to myself “what the hell did I get myself into !!“, Now I’m soooo happy I have this hound! Oh, and I trained her using ALL of your methods, and she is fabulous! I tell everybody I see at the dog park that is having issues with their dog about your channel, and then I show off how well trained mine dog is 👍
Cheers.
By the way, my dog eats a better diet than me! $250 a month… I buy bulk raw straight from the local supplier.
Nice post! You may want to try Darwin's pet food on-line. They ship free next-day a variety of quality raw meats for dogs and cats packed frozen on dry ice. Their Select brand for dogs features over 90% meat and the rest organic veggies. I just throw a pack overnight from freezer to fridge and we're good to go the next day. Hormone, antibiotic and steroid free. A four-pack of beef is less than $16, but each meat (turkey, duck, rabbit, chicken) varies in price. This may be cheaper for you in the long run. It looks way better than supermarket meats, hands down.
That is an issue though. The cost of raw food.
I was fortunate to grow up on 300 acres with horses and dogs. The lessons learned being around animals as a child I will always be grateful to my father and grandfather for. I think the value of connecting your children to the natural world and responsibilities of caring for animals is invaluable and irreplaceable. I’m sure surfing is another way to get that connection to “mother earth”
During the quebec lockdowns for covid we had a 8pm curfew, but people were allowed to walk their dogs after as long as they were alone with the dog. It lead to some people doing stuff like a wife walking her husband on a leash.. ..and was one more reason we got our dog.
by the way, it's really cool I'm not ghosted/shadow banned here. Thanks for that!
OK I’m the lady with the dog and yes we did have a cat. My son gave it to me as a birthday present one year.
I am not a cat person but for his gift I became a cat person . Sporgycat lived in and outside of our home for 20 years.. when she was 20 years old we moved to a new home and she freaked out !
so she started wetting on everything.. mostly my leather shoes and that was it. I took her to my vet and had her euthanized. I didn’t feel guilty. She had a wonderful 20 years life, and I was relieved to say goodbye.❤
We only got our two KCcavaliers because I am self employed, childless, and my husband works an opposite schedule (so the dogs are not alone for long periods of time).
I was excited to spend a good portion of each day on the dogs. Well, let me tell you, I am SHOCKED at how much time I have invested. I feel like I am raising two human babies. I cannot fathom how families with young children and two working parents can ever have time for even one dog, let alone multiple.
The two of you are correct, our positives outweigh all the work. They have greatly relived my depression, I am out three times a day for walks in all weather, and they make me extremely happy.
I agree there are too many dogs, I live in a major city, and the number of dogs is out of control. Everyday we deal with wild, neglected, and aggressive dogs in the neighborhood
You're a perfect example of someone getting dogs after counting the costs and weighing it out and then learning that they're more involved than you thought.
@rylanblack8571, And those are just the minimal. Great description!
For the cold weather topic you can find different scales on Google of temperature versus dogs and how long to have them outside for. For my dog with temperatures under 20 degrees F I've read that you want to stay outside no longer than 1 minute per degree of temperature. But it all depends upon breed and size and condition etc... their paws can get hurt in extreme cold.
Dog insurance wise, I've been stung twice with two consecutive dogs, the companies refused to pay out. 1st arguably my fault, young & dumb, cancer wasn't covered on the plan. 2nd time felt like daylight robbery. This time around we've decided to not do insurance, put that same amount into monthly savings account. Sure it's a gamble, but then, insurance as a whole seems to be a huge con artist gamble.
Thanks for sharing!! What the heck is the point of insurance if not to cover things like cancer…. My exact point on why it’s better to have your own cash reserves to cover emergencies
The Dog Insurance companies know the reason they don't cover cancer. So many dogs getting cancer. Why? Because of the dog food being sold.
Wonder how long before Mars buys up a small pet insurance company?
I firmly believe not all people should have dogs. Jett brings me laughter, companionship, unconditional love and keeps me exercised. You help me everyday.
Spot on and really funny. I have to watch c. a half hour at a time, so be back 4 the rest. Your wife is right, you ARE a good communicator. The tips really do help.
Oh, many of us like and have owned a variety of animals. A 'Catio' that goes out a window can be an outdoor time. Not too hard to put one in yourself if handy.
@@renebarish2098But can they run in the grass, hide while having fun, or potty outside instead of a box of Kitty litter? What is living so long in one house your entire life without ever going outside look like to you? For you, it's grand. It sounds like hating on you, but I'm not. I found having my cat be a cat in natural surroundings better for him. He lived a short but fun and remarkable life. 🌟
I really have to get back to Wild Kingdom, here, my full-time job :) In short, if there are coyotes, hawks, fisher cats or bully cats you are taking a chance on getting them pretty torn up or killed in painful manner. I've been through it. To each their own.@@User7688.--_
Getting a dog was the best thing I ever did after having my daughter, obvs no more children for me.
Daughter left home I’m now thinking taking on a guide dog?!
Great video as always!! 😁
I have a cat. :)
But I have FOUR dogs, haha!! You’ve really helped me with my reactive German Shepherd I found this time last year (she was dumped at a city park). Thank you! LOVE your common sense approach!
Omg! I’m at 1:08:25 and you’re talking about the negative portrayal of men on television (weak,goofy etc) I manage a medical office and right at this moment received a call from a 22 year old whose mom was in the background asking questions for him! We are creating weak young men. I have five daughters ages 22-29. We’ve seen the evidence first hand in the dating pool. This ties perfectly with Eric’s comment earlier about wanting to protect his future wife on a hike. I love that! Strong, confident caring men are attractive!! 😊
So stoked to hear Prince is getting off kibble! ❤ My rescue dogs thrive on raw. 80% meat, 10% bone and 10% organ.
Your podcast is my favorite, especially when you go off the topic of dogs. Nice to hear adult conversations that aren't sanitized.
Rescues are so much more work than getting a clean slate puppy in my experience. Almost all the dogs I see in the shelter I volunteer at have big problems or learned behaviors that make them not fit for 90% of the people who come through looking to adopt. These dogs are usually over 40lb and high energy with a build up of reactivity and/or abuse issues.
About half the dogs get returned within a year of being adopted, and come back with even worse mental health because the adopter got fed up.
The reality is that these dogs need 8 foot fences they can't chew, climb or dig out of, no other animals, no kids, chain leashes they can't bite, 1 hour of strenuous exercise, and 1 hour of mental stimulation. And some of these dogs don't even know how to play or engage.
Yeah, not many people have a clue.
And the dogs bark, mouthe, and jump when you visit them so even more deterrent for anyone interested.
As a volunteer, we're not allowed to correct them anything more than verbal or block them.
Thank you for what you do as a volunteer. The last sentence really sucks to see especially because it's a part of the problem and what keeps them from getting adopted I'm sure. It's almost like they need to have a puppy or dog prep/training class before a person of family can adopt. I'm sure there's not much money for that in their budgets but if they'd allow willing volunteers to work with the dogs some...
Eric - Elder cats benefit from high quality/raw food quite a bit. Especially if it's been fed on commercial pet food all its life. My senior cat lived to 20 and only fed raw the last 10 years. It made a big difference in my senior cat's health.
Mine is 15 and I FINALLY managed to get him to eat the good stuff (raw), and it's been awesome.
I feel you make these comments to get people to want to comment and post and that's what I'm doing so I hope you're happy. Lol
😂
It's been like -20 to like -35 feels like temp where I'm at this past week and snow everywhere. No walking the dog in that. A balmy +22 yesterday so we walked.
We got some tug-o-war and basic obedience brushed up on while I taught him to seek in the house for some stimulation. I ain't even in Alaska, just gotta get creative sometimes.
My dog got maybe 45 minutes in two outings and really needs 1-2 hours minimum. Not surprised it reverted to bad behavior jumping on me, and not in a cute way. Really cold weather is a challenge.
@@renebarish2098 I know it can be a challenge. I just do the best I can in short spurts. My dog loves to rough house and bite etc. I can go out, pad up.with clothes and get some energy outta him.that way or do it in the house. I'd say just find an alternative outlet in the house if too cold.
Of course, play in the house works to an extent. It matters which breed of dog you have. Daycare can also help if your dog is not rough with other dogs. The weather looks like it's going to warm up next week.@@rptrick79
They should fire all their vets and hire a nutritionist. (Just food for dogs)
Y'all are funny! "The last thing I need is more love!" People want a lot from a dog, they don't consider what the dog needs from them.
Usually more exercise, structure and mental stimulation!
I 100% support this! Not only has getting a dog become a way of life and something that people just do because everyone is doing it, but also too many people get dogs based off of movies and then don't do their research on the breed. They don't think about the amount of exercise or mental simulation every breed needs, not just working breeds, even small dogs require exercise. Too many uneducated people.
Having kids changes your life, having a dog changes your life also. If it doesn't you shouldn't have either. You make the choice, you should be damn ready or work hard at changing to man up to your responsibility.
I love listening to you guys podcasts! This podcast reminded me that their are so many variables within life, im glad nobody is getting in my business 😂 You would get so much flack from the general population if they heard you are going to let your cats outside to be cats..
fyi Daddy & Junior have passed on, so maybe Prince is #1.
Thanks for the stimulating conversation!
Btw i learn alot by reading the comments
Idk if thats considered trolling by others, im curious....
I agree!!! If you get a dog, you need to have a reason for getting a dog. Me personally I Have a pomchi and a Rott. Initially I got my Pomchi as an Alert dog. Pomeranians are natural alert dogs and chihuahua is a companion dog. That’s why a Pomchi was the best fit for me. If someone comes into my home, or is walking up on me my Pomchi will Alert me. My Pomchi has a purpose and I train him as so. I got my Rott when I moved alone to Protect my home, she has a purpose. I train her as so, I have a reason to have my dogs. Overall for protection, since my dogs have a purpose I do extensive training with them.
Most people just get a dog because they ‘are cute’. That is when you get a dog and things go left. Your dog does not have a purpose there for you have no direction and neither does your dog. Then you bring him to Beckman to ‘fix it’.
Yes I have a small beagle our temperatures were in -28 to 38c so no walks, lots of playtime, puzzles,Kong and paw cream on paws to quickly go outside.. the cream on paws have been a life safer for her haha Can’t wait till warmer weather -2c is nice for my pup.. Hello from Kamloops Bc Canada . thank u for your podcast
Always have to sneak a look at what's on the podcast when it pings up on my notifications when I'm at work 😊 then look forward to watching later 😊
as a father of two and recent dog owner..... LOVE THIS PODCAST!
I LOVE all the topics and banter. Name your next dog Balki! Or kid!😆
i love that you have differing views on a variety of things than me. like my best friends i find great value on your insights, even if i don't like what i hear. you have helped me interacting and communicating with dogs in general. I'd love Joel to lecture on operant conditioning and his book recommendations. also look into a share of cow from a rancher and a chest freezer. cheapest way to get quality meat
An 8-week Maine Coon/Bengal was dropped in my lap to find a home for. I never bonded with cats. Dylan and I bonded so quickly. He was an indoor/outdoor, chipped, fenced backyard with tall grass and trees, and he always came when called. He was a ninja! Last month, at one year old, he was hit at night, and the person took him to the ER Hospital. He died quick and young. He had a remarkable, fun, loved, short life. I do not regret anything.
It sucks to lose a pet, but you should've done the responsible thing & kept him indoors. They do a LOT of damage to the bird populations & they are also prey for anything their size & larger that also runs around outside.
I'm sorry for your loss, Dawna. It's never easy to lose our four-legged companions ❤
I'm so happy he got to enjoy a life every cat deserves: free access to wild outdoors 🐈 I don't believe any cat deserves to be kept indoors all its life. I'd rather my cat be the happiest cat alive for a couple of years rather than live in isolation for 20 years, unable to follow its natural instincts or play tiger in the grass. That must have been one happy kitty with the yard you described 😊
@@erikacolangione8727Thank you for your comment. He was so happy. He jumped on the blue sail we had hung over the hot tub. He would get on our house's roof and jump onto “his “trampoline.” I would call him to me, and he would get just shy of my hands, then run back and jump. He did play Tiger in the tall grass, stalking something, but never caught anything. He's buried out by the railroad tie he would go to every morning and just sit there looking all around. I miss him a lot. My oldest son and I loved dogs. My youngest son has always favored cats. He always had a cat. He's 32 and has Oliver.
@@MeanOldLady,
You do you-I'll do me. Have a great day. 🌟
You guys RULE ! You’re playing way above the rim lately. These topics you’ve been covering are the reason I started Off Grid Dogs.
Wow, really? 🌟 How?
Someone's gotta take the last shot or dunk the Ball. @Dawnamiller-rb7bf he's talking about the last couple podcast about the PIC pod and what's in dog food 1 nobody wants to bring up.
@@rptrick79, Oh…I’m literal.
I had to put my dog down because I knew if I didn’t she would attack one of the neighbor kids. She knew how to get out of the yard and hated little boys.
a lot of people are amazed when they see my 30lb mutt actually behave in public places. when in line at stores he will either sit or lie down without being prompted. when walking through aisles he doent even bother to sniff products. at outdoor eateries he will lay under the chair or table that im at and not bother anyone. he has never had an accident in a public place because he is strictly a grass kind of dog (wont even go on turf or cement) he also doesnt pee on cars either. he also on leash at these places so he doesnt disturb others. it took months to train him on how to act in public places but it was well worth it because now i can take him on planes, road trips, boat trips, and so on. its amazing how much of the world opens up to you and your dog once your dog is properly trained and the owner practices some basic owner ediquitte.
Such a good podcast!! So many good topics. I would recommend still trying to keep your cats inside.
I have both a cat and dog and many other category critters.
However unless you live on a farm with a bigger risk for say rats and mice getting into feed. Or you have a mouse problem in general. I still wouldn’t recommend having a cat outdoors.
Not only because they’re extremely destructive to their surrounding environments, catching and eating native animals.
(See what’s happening in Australia and several other countries including the US)
But also the risks of them eating poison from an animal they’ve caught, getting killed by dogs, other cats, or wild predators. (Hawks, coyotes, even possums)
My family have the only indoor cat out of our relatives. And has lived the longest being elderly now. Our relatives went through a lot of cats from predators, poisons, or accidents. All because “they like the freedom and they need that.” They really don’t. I’m sure everyone’s dogs would love running wild as they please, but hopefully most of us don’t because it’s safer for them and everyone else.
And we also don’t live far out, more predators are just coming in because they know there’s easier prey.
If we don’t want dogs running around wild, I think it should also be taken into consideration for cats.
This is also not an attack! Y’all do whatcha want with your cats. Just throwing my two cents out there.
Loved the podcast and you guys play off eachother so well! 🙌 excited to see more!
We live in a not so nice neighborhood so I got a dog to protect my wife while I work at night because she freezes and panics in any emergency so a gun would be useless. Now we got two corso’s 😂... We treat them with the same research, training, and respect required for responsible gun ownership if not more so. Man I love them❤
I'm on disability, my boys are both teens and never home. And I'm divorced, pups are perfect for me❤
Don’t have dogs… mainly bc right now I’m not in the position to train n maintain an animal.. found u bc I wanted to confirm my instincts regarding dog owners passiveness in controlling their beast… it feels a lot like “gentle parenting” which is in vogue.. I stayed to listen bc I agree with most of the talk. 😊
Right on! Same here! He's killin it with truth
Plus, they are funny. 🌟
I m with Joel on that I look forward to seeing his life that's why I want to stay healthy I enjoy seeing my son at every stage he's in it's wild...when he was 15 he asked me to give a couple friends home after school and it was 2 girls that told me they could stay til whenever.so I was worried those girls would devour him
I know I am too late to comment on this, but I LOVE when you talk about parenting, Joel. And I 1000% understand what you are saying about wanting to be with the kids, you just let things go once you have kids, and wanting to live long enough to see them grow🥲 I do this calculation all the time how much time I may have with them, and their kids etc. I also love that you said your family is like a basketball team, and I agree with you. I think it's so important to have the "team" attitude toward kids😊
Eat beans & rice and cabbage Joel. LOL! Agree with so much of what you say. Thank you so much for your training videos. Your comments about kids and family life are so spot. ❤❤
I have a cat! I got him when he was 8, and I've been feeding him raw for about 10 years (he's 22, I started with canned food). You can switch them at any time, in theory, provided they like it, lol.
Joel, my boyfriend feeds Titan raw food. Dunno if its available in your area, but you can order like 80lbs at a time, and it comes out to like $2/lb. There might be an ordering co-op in your area. If you're feeding Prince cooked food, you could "meal prep" for him and do cooked food at home. My aunt used to do that for her Bernese. She'd cook rice & chicken in a pressure cooker and add frozen veggies & and a powdered multivitamin. It's work, and time, but it's possible to do it once a month with an instant pot & then you can freeze daily or weekly portions. It's cheaper that way. But yeah. Big dogs are expensive! I prefer my medium sized dog, lol. (Incidentally, she's a very sweet pittie that I got as a walking companion who would intimidate people. I used to live near an area that had homeless encampments, and I could only walk at night. I love being in nature with a dog, tbh.)
I will say, I did not adopt my puppy for exercise but definitely became active because of him. I discovered I love camping + hiking and we go as often as we can. Camping 3-4 times a year, hiking 6-8 miles every weekend. Never would have happened if I didn't take him home.
For me, getting a dog does actually have benefits. However, my dogs are working dogs, and I'll only see those benefits after about 18 months and more hours of training my ONE dog than my full time job. I go into this knowing I don't get sick days or days off. I'll only actually reap the benefits so long as they're healthy and happy enough to work. When they have to retire, I'll happily eat the cost of their care while I also spend the time and money to train the next. I do this all so that I can live and work independently and so no other human has to worry about me. I didn't choose to have to train my dogs like this, I need to do this so I can continue to pay taxes and go to work and get groceries like the average person. I'd love to have the luxury of allowing my dog to be a normal pet dog their whole life.
I see all these people getting mad at their working breed pet dogs for doing what it was designed to do. Like bro your border collie is being a jerk and bossing your kids around because it's meant to boss cattle around. Don't want a dog bossing your kids around, don't get a herding breed unless you give it training, exercise and a job to do. By not doing those things you're setting yourself up for disaster and you have a fluffy little jerk for a prisoner in your yard.
If you can't do the bare minimum for a dog, don't get one.
❤You have a great perspective on raising children. We raised our boy, AAA hockey player like your competitive daughter. You are refreshing and clear cut. Thank god someone has your perspective
I’m a dedicated and subscribed viewer. I have a cat only, and I prefer cats. My husband has two big dogs. I watch to learn how to better train dogs for household peace. Just FYI! Referencing to your comments at 30:31.
Throttling can mean strangling also.
I’m pretty risk savvy (I thought). Was in Africa once & left (very) secure accomodation for a 3 day trip (a calculated risk). During the trip, we took a hike and at one point, the grass was head/shoulder height - we couldn’t see a thing around us. Next minute 5 locals crossed our path, with a rifle & a dead gazelle tied to a tree branch that they were carrying between them. Then the sickening realisation dawned that there were people with rifles around us hunting - for animals who have the same colour as my hair.
My parents later told me that they were beside themselves with worry the whole 3 days (they’ve also been to Africa). I knew they weren’t thrilled but had no idea they were distraught - I promised to never do that to them again.
I work at an animal shelter. There shouldn't be shame in surrendering/rehoming an animal. We see the dumped strays all the time. They don't always get picked up in time. We get them in the freezer. Starved to death. Attacked by coyotes or hit by a car. Shaming people for rehoming is part of the problem. Rehoming doesn't make someone a bad person, shit happens.
We had a hike in Denver with 3 people I was way in front a tall older lader was in the middle and a slower guy bringing up the rear...I was way ahead and a man jumped from behind trees...the lady was tall and brought her poles up and made the man paused...Then the other hiker in our group came upon them...The intruder made a lame excuse and walked off!...and I was already off the trail in the parking lot...We called the sheriff, who arrived in about 15 mins but that was it!!! And there were multiple exits from the trail. Don't know what would have happened if the woman had been shorter or the other male in our group hadn't showed up when he did. And this trail we were on is heavily traveled but it was getting dark
My wife and I had to rehome our 3 yr old aggressive australian shepherd, it was the hardest thing to do and I personally was filled with guilt but we couldn't have that in our home when we were planning to have kids. I appreciate Joel for being real and giving us the right perspective that we only had this one life and that we couldn't be living in constant worry for the next 10 years
By "rehome" do you mean give it to a shelter?
How were you able to rehome him if he was aggressive? I have an aggressive dog and no one can get within 100 feet of him without him trying to attack.
@@ccap3211 luckily we found another couple willing to work with him and they didn't plan on ever having a kid
Finding a place to live and travel are made WAY more difficult with a dog.
Absolutely true
I personally just need a dog in my life. I feel empty without one. I've had a dog in my life since day one.
Then get one! Only if you do your research before you decide on a breed
Look for what you reasonably can handle, that you are financially secure, and mostly, do you have the time to spend with your new puppy that will become a dog quickly.
I've heard that everybody loves pugs, and from a reputable dealer, they would know the traits and personality of each dog. Only buy a puppy that has been raised in their home. Good luck. Oh, don't forget to watch Joel’s puppy videos.
I have one, like I said, I've had a dog since day one of my life.@@User7688.--_
Put in a pool! 😂😂😂😂😂❤
In Colorado we’ve walked our dogs at -20 degrees. They do just fine as long as you keep moving. If you stop walking, that’s when the dogs will begin to lift their feet in discomfort.
I agree you really have to think it through. It’s a big responsibility.
My Malinois is a great protector against people yet is ruled my by 6lbs tyrant (chihuahua).
I also spend an excessive amount of time with my dogs; I've got three. They get at least an hour of my day to them. But I did buy them for sporting, protecting (me and my livestock) and of course their devotion.
Another great podcast 👏 side note- im part of the 3%; I'm 22 and I listen all the time !
for my cats creating a catio using an enclosed patio that came with a house i used to live in was the best thing ive ever done for the cat I had at the time. I put cat furniture like scratchers scented with cat nip, a free flow fountian, and some cat grass to munch on along with a litter box and she was in heaven. i also rigged some flirt toys for her to bat and pounce on. when I moved to a house without a fence let alone a patio I made her a cat garden by adding cat grass, catnip, and other cat friendly plants and got her a long tie out cable so she could ¨roam¨ safely. she also got another fountain and i got a bird feeder for cat t.v. btw i never left her outside alone on the tie out or at all.
Sounds like a paradise. A friend of mine had a calm cat and put it on a tie-out, but only when present a few yards away, but could socialize and lounge. Some people take them on leash, it's time intensive training. Cesar Milan had one in a stroller out for a walk with the dogs he was socializing it to.
@@renebarish2098 i have to say some of the issues ive seen people have with cats on my cat from hell as well as personal accounts from friends truely amaze me. cats are not as easy as just leaving food out and getting a litter box and calling it a day but they are not that difficult either. growing up with them i learned early on that cats require a lot of stimulation both mentally and physically and that the litter box needs to be scooped everyday and that you need more than one. we also didnt declaw them and instead used a catnip scratcher. its amazing how you can end up with a great pet if you satisfy its needs on a regular basis.
Real food ain’t cheap lol I spend around $600 a month on a raw balanced species appropriate diet for one large dog. But that’s not from a company that’s my wife shopping at the grocery mostly.
I'm not a dog person or a child person... and I'm not allowed to have a cat in my apartment. Guess I'll get a plant.
😂
Fish are an option 😂
I’m here to comment that I have a dog because I have PTSD and major depressive disorder and have had it for years. While I’m on Zoloft, it somewhat helps, but I’m still super depressed regardless of how good my life is. Not to say my life is great, I’ve had plenty of setbacks, but it’s also not the worst and not where I want to be. My dog at least gives me the motivation to get up in the morning. We go out for walks. I enjoy training and playtime, even if I don’t always have the energy to do it. Although I wish she was less demanding, her temperament is calm and she’s a great friend. I don’t want my life without a dog. Honestly I don’t think I’d still be here if I didn’t have one.
Financially, dogs are much more cheaper than kids and in this economy I don’t think anyone is really equipped to have kids. Gen z has the lowest birth rate on record so far so people have to weigh their options.
Totally agree that not every person should get a dog. Dropping a dog off at a shelter is okey of the most heartbreaking things I can think of, yet….I don’t think I can truly completely fault the person doing it.
Good evening from Yorkshire!! Great intro!! I'm already thinking about ditching the wife and kids, gonna seriously have to consider the dog part 🤔🤔🐶♥️
😂
LMAO! Don't worry, you're in the trust tree here. Your secret is safe!
Yep, this is the place to get all this off your chest 😂
It's total jokes guys, I'm blessed with an amazing little family, and a long lost daughter coming back into my life! I couldn't live a day without them!
Keep the podcasts coming guys, I still look forward to Thursday every week! It wouldn't be the same without you guys now 💪👍🐶♥️
Guess what music teacher is working on swing/big band/Duke Ellington this week? This one!
My pup pays attention but when we go out in public he doesn't listen, he forgets all the commands. Another thing he does is jump on us and i do that knee thing and tell my other family members to do it too and he still jumps on us
The knee thing is not moving back, lifting your knee, and keeping it solid and unmovable. He launches and hits a wall. YOU are not hurting him. HE did it to himself. It usually takes just a couple of times for them to get it. 🌟
My wife and I just got 2 dogs 1 last year and one recently we save their lives they're very happy in a good home and we're happy with our companions we don't have children these are our children we both work full-time jobs and the dogs are just fine everybody is doing just great and no 1 gets killed or suffers in a jail.
“these are our children”
They’re not children though, they’re dogs.
@@allprolb20 To some people their dogs are their children and probably treat them better than most adults treat their human children.
Dog stuff, including Doberman talk:
I got my youngest dog because I’m disabled and am owner training him to be an assistance dog (service dog in the US and some other countries).
I have PTSD from growing up with domestic violence and both of my dogs really help with it, I can also say that my past dogs literally saved my life on a daily basis.
On the subject of Dobermans: if you want a more mentally stable and proportional female then you should get one from a German bloodline. I had both a male and female, red Dobermans from German/European bloodlines and they were the best examples I’ve seen of the breed.
I got them both as adults, from different people and they were able to bond really well with me and each other. They naturally ended up being a guarding team.
I wish I had the chance to breed them but life had different ideas and I placed them with good families who I saw on a regular basis, that way I would know if they were being neglected or anything.
Dog food talk: my big dog is allergic to poultry so I am currently feeding Taste of the Wild - Pacific Stream, and the majority of the ingredients are some kind of fish.
Both dogs are doing great on this diet, I do add fresh foods like yoghurt, eggs, hemp seeds, plus fruit and veg to each meal along with an omega oil supplement.
I rotate the different fresh foods throughout the week so they get variety, which can help with adding different nutrients as well as flavour.
Another dry food I would recommend in Australia is Meals for Mutts.
It’s similar to Taste of the Wild but made specifically for dogs with allergies, I get the Kangaroo and Lamb because almost every other flavour has some kind of chicken in it, this is the same with almost every brand I considered, the others I like (ie Ziwi Peak) are out of my budget 🙄
I don't know if you guys are seeing my comments, but my brother does My Ollie it's like 360 a month for each dog, Darwins pet, Farmers Dog, search online. Petco crap is going to be WAAAAAYYYYY more expensive. Also I totally would change a 10 year old cats diet, sometimes cats live 20 years, they will have a way better quality of life as they get older. It's like saying someone shouldn't start eating healthy at 50 years old because half their life is over 😂😂
I think a serious conversation with your family about the time, expense, and long term commitment is mandatory before taking on any thing that is completely dependent on you for its health happiness and safety.
I don’t want to get my cats fixed. Sorry Joel, you’ll be paying for that impulse buy for another 16 years! 😂
The break down @33:20 is on point never stop i appreciate your videos I just found your channel today thank you and we hear you! I say let the smartest cat out at times so it learns the land and can teach and or protect the small cat by the time you feel comfortable to let it out as well. Thank you for being yourself and sharing yourself with the world both of you truly thank you 🙏🏽
It's better and cheaper to make your own dog food. Then maybe add in raw when you can. I recently started cooking for my dogs, and they love it! Their coats also look shinier
Joel, I like that you have avoided the RUclips channel trap of becoming a product review channel. We've raised dogs for thousands of years without whatever effing thing the dog industrial complex pays that dude who wears eye liner to pitch to us each week.
Joel, I am hoping to work on some raw food from our grass fed and finished beef, pork, and chicken. If you don't find something more local hopefully I could be a good resource for raw dog food.
Listen, the whole "dogs should benefit your life thing", I feel that. I've had GREAT dogs, dogs I would die for, but in recent years had some bad luck with a couple that just did not work for us. The thought of living with something you resent for the next decade is a horrible feeling and does no one any favors, including the dog. One went with a friend (she wanted him from the beginning anyway) and he is living his best life and they love him. Perfect. The other we decided to return to the rescue group after agonizing over it for a long time and trying to make it work, and it got UGLY. The most unprofessional rescue I've ever had the displeasure of working with. The dog was not honestly represented, and then not honestly represented again when they relisted her. So I'm going to take this moment to put Atlanta Lab Rescue on blast. Apparently professional trainers in the region are well aware to steer clear of them as well, I recently found out.
