I feel like a crazy person when I have to correct my dog like this, but then I rewatch some of Joel's videos and I'm like "oh yeah I have a slightly insane 85lb Malinois mix that can drag my ass if she wanted to" and then I feel so much better knowing how well trained she is for a 15 month old pup lol 😭💚💙💜
Good for you!!! Take control. People that choose powerful dogs MUST train them well. The damage they're capable of is too big. My pup was attacked by 2 shepherds when she was a pup. I was FURIOUS with the owner for not having them under control or muzzled. I work hard with my dobermans training/control.. and expect other owners to do the same.
@@theresac.7897 Sorry for the long reply. Yeah my neighbor's dogs are crazy, too much to type tbh. I love my girl, we didn't know what breed she was other than the owners of the mother dog said "mom was half Anatolian and GSD, dad is unknown but could be our male GSD or the male Pyrenees or a neighboring dog from nearby farms." Tbh I think all three of those dogs were mutts, the mom is clearly also part Malinois AT LEAST because we got two pups from the litter and the mom looked almost exactly like one of the pups. We only got them for free cuz the mom escaped the yard while in heat so they couldn't prove the dad was the GSD or Pyrenees, but apparently they normally breed the mom with the GSD and sell pups for $200. At least they had the courtesy of a DNA test for one of our pups, and deworming them the first round since we got them at 6 weeks old. DNA didn't get results until after we had the pups for a week. If the test was accurate, the bigger pup was Coonhound, Anatolian, GSD, Malinois, Pyrenees, Husky, Malamute, and Akita. We had to re-home her a couple months ago because I'm 125lbs, I have small kids, she was pushing 100lbs and kept bruising me and pulling me down and almost dislocated my shoulder a few times and accidentally knocked over my toddler really hard. But I refused to let her go anywhere until we found a lady who was enthusiastic and almost crying so happy to have her, and my big furbaby was clearly at home the instant we let her into the lady's yard. She has a short fat GSD mix boyfriend now and they hit it off instantly lmao. We kept the smaller more submissive girl because she's gentler with small kids and spooks less. I still love both girls so much, they'll always be my babies 💜💙💚
Malinois might as well be a different species 😂 we’ve got one. He’s a Pharoah hound mix and he’s c r a z y. We’ve also got a Czech wolfdog and a Lupo Italiano. Totally different story. Very peaceful animals. Malinois are nuts and they require a different type of handling compared to regular dogs or even wolf hybrids.
@@dogzentraining oh wow y'all got lots of unique dog breeds! I've never met any of those others in person before. I love that lol. Love hearing about more breeds out there with good owners/trainers 💜💙💚
its ok i have several people telling me "aw let her do what she wants" "ur being kinda mean" "you know she doesnt need to be trained that well" just ignore them. their dog would be terrible
This is a great technique and it really snaps most dogs out of the mindset they are currently in. I do wanna add though that random people not trained for this may overly exert too much pressure due to actual anger and it can turn abusive. Just because most people aren’t mentally calm all the time. Regardless, yes this is the best way to teach large dogs to cut it out and understand who’s boss if done correctly.
As somebody who has felt anger doing this , I can 100% say that a calm approach will always work better than an angry one!🫶🏼 I’ve noticed the calmer I am , the calmer my dog is.
I work at a dog daycare and worked at a shelter this is how I usually handle difficult dogs. Some dogs I just say no in a firm voice and they stop, but others will not stop until you get a hold of them. One time I had to go get a bird dog because she was hitting a toy poodle with her paws and the poodle was not okay with it.
I literally was about to comment that I do the same thing!! I'm also at a dog daycare care, and it helps calm down the crazy ones and usually they forget about the other dog they were playing too rough with. If they don't chill, then timeout for 5 mins lol
My wife tried the same thing with one of our (late) Afghan hounds. He broke one bone in her wrist, fractured the other one and left three puncture wounds 😬
Youre the best dog trainer ever Joel. Common sense, no nonsense aproach case by case. 1st trainer I had ever seen willing to deal with aggression, and use your dogs to correct other dogs. My dogs do that naturally. I've always noticed it. Some people are not very observant when it comes to dog behavior. They think dogs think like humans. But they think like dogs. I always look forward to your videos. They are inspiring and full of valuable knowledge hard to find.
These videos are so great and helpful! It's awesome to see the movements and body language of the animals in slow motion with your narration. Thank you, and keep it up! 👏👏
I really like your work mate. My dog has become an angel after getting him to acknowledge I'm in charge. People thought I was a nasty arse for pulling him up strongly but I knew I had to and now here you are demonstrating it😅
Dude people look at me crazy when I tell them or they see how I handle my pit bull. I very rarely need to correct her as she is a sweetheart, but it does happen.
I have two adopted ones. I love them to death but nature is all about knowing who's dominant and in control. Jerks tried to rip my arms off on walks early on before getting the idea.
it can be jarring for sure to see but people often forget how fucking powerful these dogs are and often the dogs dont know or if they do they think its okay.
@@donttalktomebye Yeah, mine don't know their own strength. Nevermind their jaws, even their bodies are like pure muscle. Not a breed for someone who doesn't have a dominant personality and is physically strong enough to deal with them if need be. That's why they were given to me. The previous owner was a little guy who just couldn't handle them and on top of that didn't know how to train them. They were total wildchilds when I got them.
You've got to be their leader, no matter what other people think ! Otherwise any dog that tries to take over, the '2 leggers' are toast! I've seen it many times😮
Just like a child, it’s easier to correct behaviors when dogs are young and impressionable. Many people have let their dogs “lead” for so long without heeding their owners, and that is the true danger. THANK YOU for this PSA ❤
I really wanted my German Shepherd to have the freedom to be of be off lead on fields without running up to dogs or people. I was told I had to be my dogs everything, being with me was the funniest best place to be. So I played and played with him but with rules. He's 2 now and only has eyes for me no matter what is around.
I used to be able to take my GSD everywhere with me when I had a different job. The first couple years of his life we were together 24/7. He's 8 now and still is the smartest and best behaved dog I've ever had. The only thing I've never broken him of is dropping a Frisbee or Kong at my feet. The butt head brings it and drops it about 5 or 6 feet away always. I have to tell him 1 or 2 times before he brings it to me close enough. It's his rebel blood I guess😂😂😂
@@jh7137 one thing I find weird,,my gsd will walk beside me fine and mind me then we walk if he’s off leash. The second I put it on him he pulls like a sled dog no matter what I do. That boy has attitude plus
It is really is quite simple to strongly correct behaviour without putting any emotion into it. Just focus on the whole point of what you're doing, which is being a leader to your dog.
I have 3 boxers, 2 really young ones. Sweethearts but a lot of power behind them. I am a 4'11" female they know who is in charge. If I wasn't I couldn't walk them together.
Malinois might as well be a different species 😂 we’ve got one. He’s a Pharoah hound mix and he’s ✨ c r a z y ✨. We’ve also got a Czech wolfdog and a Lupo Italiano. Totally different story. Very peaceful animals with the right leadership/boundaries. Malinois are nuts and they require a different type of handling compared to regular dogs or even wolf hybrids. The positive-only community can’t comprehend them. Do what you need to do to get them under control. Joel is absolutely right! I love gentle methods for dogs that need a gentle approach. Malinois are not open to this approach 😂
Interesting bc I follow many Malinois people, several are very slight women training at a very high level. Using modern training methods which being incredibly intelligent dogs, they respond to way better. I’ve also seen trainers that have to use a prong collar and an E collar in order to get their mail to do a simple sit they just end up looking like butt holes with their dogs
@@Dogdaddy5561since you are dead ass wrong you sound ridiculous because the high-level competitors do not get their dogs that way by using a force free approach. You can get by with it and agility sports but if you get into protection sports then sorry it just won't.
@@pittymama4500 I follow many people that are leading change in the sport. What they do FF kind of makes the F group look pretty lame when you know how the behaviours are trained and how they could be easily trained otherwise. You train the way you do bc you want to not bc you need to. True that lots of people find the idea of dominating a powerful animal with the touch of a button pretty attractive for their own reasons.
@@Dogdaddy5561 there is no f group there's only FF and then be people that use all four quadrant but there is no training that is all Force when you teach a dog a behavior you always use positive reinforcement when you need to punish a behavior you use positive punishment or negative punishment that is the only part that we different. But the way we do positive reinforcement is just the same there is only a 5% part of our training that is different. Yet it is uneducated people for the most that have not done solid research and has just heard somethings being said that sounded like they were good so they must be true and you spread those lies without finding out for yourself the real truth and doing the real research. Because it makes you feel good why not. At the end of the day dogs are dogs and we are not and we cannot use our emotional thinking to work with some behaviors and certain dogs. For the most part positive reinforcement can work on most dogs but there are dogs that require more. They all require leadership and leadership is never pretty all the time. Sometimes it's making yourself get through the hard stuff and it's not fun and it's uncomfortable but it's how we grow.
@@pittymama4500 thanks so much for lengthy explanation of the quadrants rather than actually responding to the fact that sport dogs, large dogs and behaviourally difficult dogs are being trained without using outdated punitive methods. Expand your horizons.
The good news there is that it is a Malinois which is highly intelligent and will learn quickly if you are on top of it unlike other dogs that are not and are harder to teach.
Congratulations 🎊 👏 💐 🥳 on your new car. I will try this technique because I'm tired of taking the bus. I had a cadillac dts and only drove it for 2 months 😢 before it stopped working.
I took my gsd to the dog park the other morning and there was a husky/gsd puppy there who refused to leave him alone, my dog did this exact same thing and would pin the puppy down. Gave him a few good lessons but never hurt the puppy. ( about a year old) my dog did great until he started humping the other dogs head lol
That’s how I get with my husky, have to. She’s 74 lbs and well a husky lol they can be super stubborn. And I don’t have to be like this often but had to the other evening & she has been great again but she needs to also have that focus on me when I’m letting her know, she isn’t going to…
I have this large mal female at my dog park who is incredibly dominant. She spends the entire time going from dog to dog to mount it or to “correct” normal play between two well mannered dogs.
Love the aggression of Malinois when correct and needed but PRINCE is STRONGER dog in that scrap. That PRINCE knows his roll in this training is so impressive
My reactive Mal had great dog manners and never put up with nonsense. She wouldn’t attack just gave warnings and then the old “rah,rah, rah which ended the rudeness. Yet her abuse as a 8 wk old made her apt to go for people if she felt threatened. It was sad because she was a wonderful dog but even though trained super well she never forgot.
my dog does this without the aggression. He is a really sweet dog going through adolescence. I will have to correct him properly the next time he tries. I knew it was not good dog etiquette, but didn't know how to correct effectively. I may have taken too long to address this, so I assume it will take multiple corrections.
My husband brought home a Malinois puppy and I didn’t know what it was. But he promised all the bullshit of ‘ I’ll take care of her, clean up after her, feed her bathe her, blah blah blah’ NONE of it happens and she’s completely UNTRAINED and almost 3. I’m just waiting for the call of the shit hitting the fan. She’s attacked all my other dogs, 2 puggles that have since passed and my sweet little 13” beagle. still, no training and he goes on about how well she listens and what a great dog she is. She doesn’t even come when I tell her to or sit without saying it 5 times. She needs help and at this point I don’t even know what to do 🤦🏼♀️
THIS IS MY DOG!!!!!! BUT MY DOG IS A 9LB YORKIE!! PLEASE HELP. HARD TO CORRECT A SMALL SHORT DOG WHO WANTS TO ATTACK PITBULLS. I ALWAYS CORRECT HIM BUT HE IGNORES ME. (Listens to soo many commands, EXCEPT "NO" fighting)
Joel and César Milán teach me everything I know about how to properly educate my dogs, they are the goats on the game, Dog daddy is very good too, but he is more like. “Bring your dog to me” which is fine in desperate cases, Joel and Cesar are showing us step by step how to train or fix our dogs. I would say they are the current top real dog trainers out there.
@@solideomusical because of all the videos and training material out there that I’ve seen over a period of 19 yrs since I started owning dogs, those two guys have thought me everything I know and believe me, everyone around me complements the way my dogs behave. And I volunteer with a lot of friends, family and neighbors to help them with their annoying, bad behaving dogs, without actually being a trainer myself, but thanks to Joel and Cesar I master a few things here and there. You don’t think the same?
When I tried to discipline my dogs (rott and doberman), they lost confidence in me and started being afraid of me. When I raise my hand suddenly near them even without any intention, they get scared. I am not sure whether i dominated them too much or my methods were wrong. I have been trying to gain their confidence for the past 6 months and got around 10%
I just started watching your videos. I feel like you might know what you're talking about. I have a red nose pit that I have had for a long time rescued him as a puppy then weird things happened and I rescued a hound dog pole hound. I believe he is native to North Carolina. I am used to pitbulls. Grew up with Rottweilers so hound dogs are not my forte. A week ago he decided to challenge my pit And, it has not gone very well since so far we have gone and taken Aries balls off AKA neuter and I feel like I'm going to do the same to my pit because I feel like it might help the situation. I have never been one to neuter. My boys always had male dogs. Hoping for the best. Any suggestions would be great.
Please man make a vdeo about how to train our dogs when there is stray dog how to teach her to react or not to becuase wher eı live which is turkey we have a lots of stray dogs and mostly field or area protective
It's all the same thing. If YOU are the most important thing in your dog’s life, then it all falls into place. Loose leash walking... Heeling.... Recall.... Avoid other dogs... Not chasing cats, squirrels, etc... Simple. (Not really in practice, but the theory is 😊)
I really like your videos. I had to alpha an unsocialized 80lb piy when I adopted him. Now my Texas heeler, she is both the most intelligent and also the hardest to alpha when she tries to be dominate to other dogs.
My dog has wolf in him and kept bullying my other dog in a bad way. Left some nasty holes in the skin before. I eventually had to ramp up my anger to the red, run towards him, and started to grab/shake/scream. On my knees, eye to eye. I knew it had to be done. There was no fear because there was no other option. I literally had to win or his behavior could amplify. He never did it again for stupid reasons. I let him correct the other dog when appropriate and he does it well.
Hopefully your exaggerating and you did not actually let yourself react in anger because that will just make your dog fearful of you because you're only predictable in the fact that you're unpredictable when you're angry. This is always done in a calm and assertive fashion never do anything with your dog out of emotion.
@@pittymama4500 my neurotic dog killed that habit but the mix with some wolf needed it. 2 years of age and bullying my other dog til there’s deep bite marks on his head many times because he was clearly jealous and after me saying NO in many different ways and it always fails. I gave him a taste of his own medicine. Not the first time I had to pull him off but it was the worst and last. Like the others were a 4 but the last one was a 7.5 on anger scale The dog would also jump passive aggressive on you if he had a disagreement. He doesn’t do that or bully my other dog anymore. He still corrects the dog but he’s much better at it. Also no random fits of bullying. Also he still loves me. Also the neurotic dog has gotten better and probably loves me too much. He cried last time I was away for a week. Despite having people.
@@pittymama4500 I chose to do it that way. Give him a taste of his own medicine. He left bad wounds on my other dog other times so it was warranted and he was 2 years old. He was a bully. Not anymore. He knows why I did it. It was probably good to show him why you do it. Also I tried it the basic way. I don’t think he feared me enough. Even a loud NO and pulling him off didn’t make him disengage from the other dog though the other dog always submits. He always jumped on me when he had a disagreement. Also I did like they do in nature. I let him correct the other dog til it goes too far. He’s much better at correcting. Maybe a bit too lenient.
I kid you not i been thinking if getting a doverman and naming him prince because thats what my neighbor as a kid did and it stuck with me now i click on your video randomly and it’s a doberman named prince what da fuck it must be God
I have a 2 yr old pitbul I rescued. He is all muscle. When he sees another dog he pulls very hard IT takes all my strength to hold him. I pull him in the opposite direction, but he continues to go the other way. Until I get further away. How can I stop this. I'm thinking of getting a no pull harness, or even a slip leash. Can someone help me. I can even put him in the back yard because my neighbors dogs are a cane Corso, and one is a pitbul. They are very aggressive. I think they are teaching my dog to be that way
It looks like a Baskerville muzzle type. Tips to secure a muzzle use the bottom loop and the top attachment strip to secure to a well fitted collar. Good luck ! Dog walker/ dog daycare manager here. These dogs be crazy out of control and you would rarely see one in a doggy daycare. Requires one - one monitoring at all times!!! 😅
I really can’t see this working past being an interrupter. Like it might work short term or to suppress it but without other forms of training wouldn’t this cause unpredictable behavior? Or them just doing it when their not in a muzzle/lead? Working short term but causing random outbursts in higher stress situations?
That surely does look like a female instead of a male that he’s correcting. I don’t see male dog parts on this dog, but the voice over is saying “he?” Am I wrong? Anybody else see male parts on the dog being corrected? Looks like a female Belgian Malinois to me
This guy is always over it. He’s the biggest baddest dude, dominance dominance dominance. This isn’t training. If this technique does work, it would never be a go to. Unless that’s all you know how to do.
I feel like the biggest cause of so many people's dogs to be so out of control it's because somewhere along the line somebody started a rumor that alpha wasn't real and you could just be your dog's friend and not show them you're the Authority, the boss, the leader, the alpha, not them.
Leader yes, dominance no. And it’s not a rumour. You can find the scientific studies on line. The original study that was done with wolves was with individual wolves that were put together in captivity. It was not a wolf pack. When they started to study actual wolf packs in the wild they discovered different behaviour. Submission was offered, it was not forced. Some wolves will leave to start their own pack. Sometimes a wolf outside the pack may challenge the leader and try and take over. It’s possible a dog within the pack may challenge the leader. But there are no dominance fights on a regular basis. Think about it. The wolves need to work together to catch prey to survive. They cannot afford to injure one another. If you are interested look for the actual research and read it yourself instead of talking about rumours. I have a Malinois. I don’t dominate him. I don’t use prong collars or e-collars. No choke chains or slip leads. Just a regular nylon collar. Yes, these dogs have energy & drive, but if you create the proper relationship and are a truly knowledgeable trainer, they will do just about anything for you. I wouldn’t let this guy touch any of my dogs.
I have given this guy the benefit of the doubt thinking he’s not actively trying to make dog training as unpleasant and ineffective as he possibly can but really????
@@NotFalling4it he is actually 100 percent right this guy is a clown. If you want to hear what real dog trainers think of this guy go to david the dog trainers podcast he did a full episode about him calling out his bs.
Owners that couldn't control their dogs used to get a friendly suggestion from me. Some welcomed the info. The owners that thought their dog's behavior was okay then got a warning... "If you don't do something, then I will... or my dog will. The choice is yours, but either way, your dog is about to get a free lesson."
"don't worry about the prince, I'm your king."🤣🤣
Scar: long live the king

Very peaceful animals with the right leadership/boundaries. Malinois are nuts and they require a different type of handling compared to regular dogs or even wolf hybrids. The positive-only community can’t comprehend them. Do what you need to do to get them under control. Joel is absolutely right! I love gentle methods for dogs that need a gentle approach. Malinois are not open to this approach 😂
Interesting bc I follow many Malinois people, several are very slight women training at a very high level. Using modern training methods which being incredibly intelligent dogs, they respond to way better. I’ve also seen trainers that have to use a prong collar and an E collar in order to get their mail to do a simple sit they just end up looking like butt holes with their dogs
@@Dogdaddy5561since you are dead ass wrong you sound ridiculous because the high-level competitors do not get their dogs that way by using a force free approach. You can get by with it and agility sports but if you get into protection sports then sorry it just won't.
@@pittymama4500 I follow many people that are leading change in the sport. What they do FF kind of makes the F group look pretty lame when you know how the behaviours are trained and how they could be easily trained otherwise. You train the way you do bc you want to not bc you need to. True that lots of people find the idea of dominating a powerful animal with the touch of a button pretty attractive for their own reasons.
@@Dogdaddy5561 there is no f group there's only FF and then be people that use all four quadrant but there is no training that is all Force when you teach a dog a behavior you always use positive reinforcement when you need to punish a behavior you use positive punishment or negative punishment that is the only part that we different. But the way we do positive reinforcement is just the same there is only a 5% part of our training that is different. Yet it is uneducated people for the most that have not done solid research and has just heard somethings being said that sounded like they were good so they must be true and you spread those lies without finding out for yourself the real truth and doing the real research. Because it makes you feel good why not. At the end of the day dogs are dogs and we are not and we cannot use our emotional thinking to work with some behaviors and certain dogs. For the most part positive reinforcement can work on most dogs but there are dogs that require more. They all require leadership and leadership is never pretty all the time. Sometimes it's making yourself get through the hard stuff and it's not fun and it's uncomfortable but it's how we grow.
@@pittymama4500 thanks so much for lengthy explanation of the quadrants rather than actually responding to the fact that sport dogs, large dogs and behaviourally difficult dogs are being trained without using outdated punitive methods. Expand your horizons.
I really love this video ❤
The good news there is that it is a Malinois which is highly intelligent and will learn quickly if you are on top of it unlike other dogs that are not and are harder to teach.
Congratulations 🎊 👏 💐 🥳 on your new car. I will try this technique because I'm tired of taking the bus. I had a cadillac dts and only drove it for 2 months 😢 before it stopped working.
Had to do this with my blue heeler when she kept trying to mount my boxer pit mix who she hadn't seen for years. I only had to do it once.
I took my gsd to the dog park the other morning and there was a husky/gsd puppy there who refused to leave him alone, my dog did this exact same thing and would pin the puppy down. Gave him a few good lessons but never hurt the puppy. ( about a year old) my dog did great until he started humping the other dogs head lol
That’s how I get with my husky, have to. She’s 74 lbs and well a husky lol they can be super stubborn. And I don’t have to be like this often but had to the other evening & she has been great again but she needs to also have that focus on me when I’m letting her know, she isn’t going to…
I have this large mal female at my dog park who is incredibly dominant. She spends the entire time going from dog to dog to mount it or to “correct” normal play between two well mannered dogs.
VERY NICE & WELL EXPLAINED, ¡THANKS!
It’s a Belgian me a whole different ballgame
Prince: “hey buddy, this is what I do for a LIVING” 😂😂
Love the aggression of Malinois when correct and needed but PRINCE is STRONGER dog in that scrap. That PRINCE knows his roll in this training is so impressive
Omg : his words remind my trainer
My reactive Mal had great dog manners and never put up with nonsense. She wouldn’t attack just gave warnings and then the old “rah,rah, rah which ended the rudeness. Yet her abuse as a 8 wk old made her apt to go for people if she felt threatened. It was sad because she was a wonderful dog but even though trained super well she never forgot.
my dog does this without the aggression. He is a really sweet dog going through adolescence. I will have to correct him properly the next time he tries. I knew it was not good dog etiquette, but didn't know how to correct effectively. I may have taken too long to address this, so I assume it will take multiple corrections.
I saw a woman grab her rottie by the jaws and yell in his face. He stopped and changed, "Yes, Mom."
My husband brought home a Malinois puppy and I didn’t know what it was. But he promised all the bullshit of ‘ I’ll take care of her, clean up after her, feed her bathe her, blah blah blah’ NONE of it happens and she’s completely UNTRAINED and almost 3. I’m just waiting for the call of the shit hitting the fan. She’s attacked all my other dogs, 2 puggles that have since passed and my sweet little 13” beagle. still, no training and he goes on about how well she listens and what a great dog she is. She doesn’t even come when I tell her to or sit without saying it 5 times. She needs help and at this point I don’t even know what to do 🤦🏼♀️
Female Mals are something else😂
One of the biggest problems I have with bringing my dog around a friend's dog is that I find out quickly that they have never corrected their dog.
95% of people never correct their dogs.
"look at that look"
It's the back if a dog's head
I worry about doing this in the street x
Belgian Malinois. Very adept and dominant police and military dogs. Pets? I had a mix who a handful
THIS IS MY DOG!!!!!! BUT MY DOG IS A 9LB YORKIE!! PLEASE HELP. HARD TO CORRECT A SMALL SHORT DOG WHO WANTS TO ATTACK PITBULLS. I ALWAYS CORRECT HIM BUT HE IGNORES ME. (Listens to soo many commands, EXCEPT "NO" fighting)
Joel and César Milán teach me everything I know about how to properly educate my dogs, they are the goats on the game, Dog daddy is very good too, but he is more like. “Bring your dog to me” which is fine in desperate cases, Joel and Cesar are showing us step by step how to train or fix our dogs. I would say they are the current top real dog trainers out there.
Why would you say that?
@@solideomusical say what? That Joel and Cesar are the goats?
@@VGAPI Yes
@@solideomusical because of all the videos and training material out there that I’ve seen over a period of 19 yrs since I started owning dogs, those two guys have thought me everything I know and believe me, everyone around me complements the way my dogs behave. And I volunteer with a lot of friends, family and neighbors to help them with their annoying, bad behaving dogs, without actually being a trainer myself, but thanks to Joel and Cesar I master a few things here and there. You don’t think the same?
@@VGAPI Do you fish?
Glad i found you. Ive trained most my life just like you. Its about dominance.
When I tried to discipline my dogs (rott and doberman), they lost confidence in me and started being afraid of me. When I raise my hand suddenly near them even without any intention, they get scared. I am not sure whether i dominated them too much or my methods were wrong. I have been trying to gain their confidence for the past 6 months and got around 10%
Im the captain now😂
the German ship with got that on please don't no, please get one prince
Even midium and small dogs do this. Cant let them get away with disrespect.
Malinois. Good dogs, once they know who's boss.
I just started watching your videos. I feel like you might know what you're talking about.
I have a red nose pit that I have had for a long time rescued him as a puppy then weird things happened and I rescued a hound dog pole hound. I believe he is native to North Carolina. I am used to pitbulls. Grew up with Rottweilers so hound dogs are not my forte. A week ago he decided to challenge my pit And, it has not gone very well since so far we have gone and taken Aries balls off AKA neuter and I feel like I'm going to do the same to my pit because I feel like it might help the situation. I have never been one to neuter. My boys always had male dogs. Hoping for the best. Any suggestions would be great.
Thanks
I bet Joel's kids have some stories to tell
Please man make a vdeo about how to train our dogs when there is stray dog how to teach her to react or not to becuase wher eı live which is turkey we have a lots of stray dogs and mostly field or area protective
It's all the same thing.
If YOU are the most important thing in your dog’s life, then it all falls into place.
Loose leash walking...
Heeling....
Recall....
Avoid other dogs...
Not chasing cats, squirrels, etc...
Simple.
(Not really in practice, but the theory is 😊)
Where are you from?
I’m asking as I have interest to visit your country but I’m in Bulgaria
I really like your videos. I had to alpha an unsocialized 80lb piy when I adopted him.
Now my Texas heeler, she is both the most intelligent and also the hardest to alpha when she tries to be dominate to other dogs.
What’s not to like about prince, in the same breath I’m taken with BM’s, with the right owner!! 🤗👍
My dog has wolf in him and kept bullying my other dog in a bad way. Left some nasty holes in the skin before.
I eventually had to ramp up my anger to the red, run towards him, and started to grab/shake/scream. On my knees, eye to eye. I knew it had to be done. There was no fear because there was no other option. I literally had to win or his behavior could amplify.
He never did it again for stupid reasons. I let him correct the other dog when appropriate and he does it well.
Hopefully your exaggerating and you did not actually let yourself react in anger because that will just make your dog fearful of you because you're only predictable in the fact that you're unpredictable when you're angry. This is always done in a calm and assertive fashion never do anything with your dog out of emotion.
@@pittymama4500 my neurotic dog killed that habit but the mix with some wolf needed it.
2 years of age and bullying my other dog til there’s deep bite marks on his head many times because he was clearly jealous and after me saying NO in many different ways and it always fails. I gave him a taste of his own medicine. Not the first time I had to pull him off but it was the worst and last. Like the others were a 4 but the last one was a 7.5 on anger scale
The dog would also jump passive aggressive on you if he had a disagreement. He doesn’t do that or bully my other dog anymore. He still corrects the dog but he’s much better at it. Also no random fits of bullying. Also he still loves me.
Also the neurotic dog has gotten better and probably loves me too much. He cried last time I was away for a week. Despite having people.
@@pittymama4500 I chose to do it that way. Give him a taste of his own medicine. He left bad wounds on my other dog other times so it was warranted and he was 2 years old.
He was a bully. Not anymore. He knows why I did it. It was probably good to show him why you do it.
Also I tried it the basic way. I don’t think he feared me enough. Even a loud NO and pulling him off didn’t make him disengage from the other dog though the other dog always submits. He always jumped on me when he had a disagreement.
Also I did like they do in nature. I let him correct the other dog til it goes too far. He’s much better at correcting. Maybe a bit too lenient.
I kid you not i been thinking if getting a doverman and naming him prince because thats what my neighbor as a kid did and it stuck with me now i click on your video randomly and it’s a doberman named prince what da fuck it must be God
Sucks to have a dog that has no interest in any positive interaction with people or dogs
I have a 2 yr old pitbul I rescued. He is all muscle. When he sees another dog he pulls very hard IT takes all my strength to hold him. I pull him in the opposite direction, but he continues to go the other way. Until I get further away. How can I stop this. I'm thinking of getting a no pull harness, or even a slip leash. Can someone help me. I can even put him in the back yard because my neighbors dogs are a cane Corso, and one is a pitbul. They are very aggressive. I think they are teaching my dog to be that way
Can you share which muzzle that is, or a good one you recomend? I have a similar one but i feel like it could come off too easily.
It looks like a Baskerville muzzle type. Tips to secure a muzzle use the bottom loop and the top attachment strip to secure to a well fitted collar. Good luck !
Dog walker/ dog daycare manager here. These dogs be crazy out of control and you would rarely see one in a doggy daycare. Requires one - one monitoring at all times!!! 😅
Belgians are not a joke, read instructions before you get one, they're not German Shepherds.
Prince is the best but will not win in a fight.
Correct, I hope you’re relationship is righteous and your way blessed by most high YHWH (God) Lord of host
Are you maintaining eye contact until the dog turns away ?
What breed is this dog?
Belgian Mallionis it looks like
Take the muzzle off then Mr big man
If he did take it off then this dog would’ve bit him or bit Prince and obviously we don’t want anyone to get hurt.
True😊😊😊😊
First Time I see a Trainer besides Milan, who's got it. Great.
I really can’t see this working past being an interrupter. Like it might work short term or to suppress it but without other forms of training wouldn’t this cause unpredictable behavior? Or them just doing it when their not in a muzzle/lead? Working short term but causing random outbursts in higher stress situations?
Where’s the full video to this short..?
That surely does look like a female instead of a male that he’s correcting. I don’t see male dog parts on this dog, but the voice over is saying “he?” Am I wrong? Anybody else see male parts on the dog being corrected? Looks like a female Belgian Malinois to me
I want to see the results.
Where do you teach
Where's the pudding?
This may work but this definitely isn’t the best way to handle this at all.
This guy is always over it. He’s the biggest baddest dude, dominance dominance dominance. This isn’t training. If this technique does work, it would never be a go to. Unless that’s all you know how to do.
Nah...im your king lol
What is wrong when the dogs give each other look
There is a reason why the dog is on a leash and the one holdin it is not.
I feel like the biggest cause of so many people's dogs to be so out of control it's because somewhere along the line somebody started a rumor that alpha wasn't real and you could just be your dog's friend and not show them you're the Authority, the boss, the leader, the alpha, not them.
Leader yes, dominance no. And it’s not a rumour. You can find the scientific studies on line. The original study that was done with wolves was with individual wolves that were put together in captivity. It was not a wolf pack. When they started to study actual wolf packs in the wild they discovered different behaviour. Submission was offered, it was not forced. Some wolves will leave to start their own pack. Sometimes a wolf outside the pack may challenge the leader and try and take over. It’s possible a dog within the pack may challenge the leader. But there are no dominance fights on a regular basis. Think about it. The wolves need to work together to catch prey to survive. They cannot afford to injure one another. If you are interested look for the actual research and read it yourself instead of talking about rumours.
I have a Malinois. I don’t dominate him. I don’t use prong collars or e-collars. No choke chains or slip leads. Just a regular nylon collar. Yes, these dogs have energy & drive, but if you create the proper relationship and are a truly knowledgeable trainer, they will do just about anything for you.
I wouldn’t let this guy touch any of my dogs.
A link to the original long video pls
Up top just posted ify
Everyones got a plan until they get punched in the face.
I don't even see the problem. Looked and sounded like play
🏆🏆🏆
I have given this guy the benefit of the doubt thinking he’s not actively trying to make dog training as unpleasant and ineffective as he possibly can but really????
Really what? How would you suggest handling a dog like this if it was brought to you for the same reasons as in this video?
@@rptrick79 Just ignore him, every comment he makes is ridiculous. He’s just miserable.
@@NotFalling4it But...but...but
..I have cabbage and I wanna cross the bridge
@@NotFalling4it he is actually 100 percent right this guy is a clown. If you want to hear what real dog trainers think of this guy go to david the dog trainers podcast he did a full episode about him calling out his bs.
So I don't have to be that nice? Cus I be trynna baby cuh but he won't listen I got a malinois
toxic boyfriend talk
They don't know how to correct without hitting... they need classes themselves
Hitting? Where?🤔
Owners that couldn't control their dogs used to get a friendly suggestion from me. Some welcomed the info. The owners that thought their dog's behavior was okay then got a warning... "If you don't do something, then I will... or my dog will. The choice is yours, but either way, your dog is about to get a free lesson."
Sad that some dudes aren't just stronger and more dominant. The beta's and submissives.😮💨
