Wow I can’t believe the stress tolerance of this owner, all of that barking would drive even the most patient person insane. By decreasing her barking by even a fraction of a percent you just improved this guy’s quality of life a thousand fold.
@@videogames9972did you miss the part where the guy said a lot of female German sheperds have this behaviour? I'm sure the owner could've done more research into it but putting all the blame on him seems unfair and ignorant.
@@videogames9972 How would you recommend not reinforcing barking? How does one do that on accident? I'm not asking to be a smart ass, but I have 5mo GSD and although he doesn't bark often, when he DOES bark, he won't stop for a good 10 minutes. I have tried ignoring him, I've put him in his crate, I've corrected with commands (He knows sit, stay, and "chill" which just means relax.) But his brain just GOES when something triggers a bark.
@@instakillermanthat's definitely not all, Prince is a very naturally intelligent and well tempered dog. Even very well trained dogs could respond very differently in this situation, given just how overwhelming this GS was. But training does absolutely play a huge role as well.
Non-stop barking drives me nuts! I feel for this guy!!! I have a pit bull who doesn't like people walking in front of the house, so she will stand at the window and bark. She is a good girl and very easy to train, so I taught her 'inside voice". When I give her the command, she goes from barking loud to barking under her breath When she just can't contain herself, she will grumble all the way up the stairs to try and get away with barking upstairs. She is funny, If I have to give the command again she usually keeps it down, but if she knows she "has to" bark, sometimes she will put herself in her kennel. Almost like putting herself in time out.
@@blazedray9903You can't teach a chatty person to not talk anymore ever, you can't teach a child not to get excited, and you 100% also can't teach a dog to never bark again. Fighting nature my friend.
Could also take her outside on lead and de-sensortize the dog to people walking past the window its really easy to stop a dog with that behaviour its nothing like a chatty person mote like the scared person who screams as soon as someone comes near them no need for it no excuse sort your dog out bet your neighbours hate you
Something interesting I noted - after Prince corrected here (and she stopped barking) she had her tongue out panting. I guess she couldn't do that while she was barking all the time, but it's a pretty clear demonstration that something changed in that dogs brain. Great job as always to you both!
@@hotbread1004and someone can correct me if I’m wrong, but I’d definitely say this is anxiety induced panting based on “tail up curiosity”. I can only assume the anxiety comes from the idea that this was her first moment where Prince corrected her into a spot where she instantly knew she was now no longer the dominating, in your face alpha, but now the submissive beta. It’s kind of like a school bully that loves to intimidate and then gets that dose of reality and instantly calms down.
@@kevinexline5392 the alpha and beta thing has been disproven ... I cant believe people still are dumb enough to believe a false study of wolves. Not to mention that dogs developed a whole different structure. Dog trainers who believe that are trash lol
@@GayTruckDriver agreed. When my father stopped working our farm, our kelpie sheep dog basically went mad from not having anything to do any more. It was really sad. I always tell people not to get working dog breeds if they can’t run them until they drop every day. Otherwise they and the dog are going to have a difficult time.
I can tell you from a GSD owner’s perspective, they are a high maintenance dog when they are puppies. You have to train them early and often. Mine is 7 and if I lapse, I see things that may grow out of control. I get compliments all the time about how well behaved he is. He is well behaved because he is well trained. Same goes with kids! Haha
@@travelandfestivalsmy dog used to lunge so I asked him to sit when he became reactive. He never did, of course. Then one day he did without me asking. He saw a dog, ears went up, then he sat down. Now he just glides past other dogs.
Prince’s temperament was AMAZING, I can’t even imagine a PERSON staying SO stable and good spirited ALL the way through this, even AFTER correcting her it was like nothing even happened, totally content and happy and at peace. It actually brings tears to my eyes, at moments, in shear respect and admiration for him, not just seeing it as a dog but an admirable quality even for a human. Amazing!
He’s also a male against a female. As little puppies with 0 training whatsoever, males often give up to females just to let them win. They know they’re stronger, but their instinct is to be gentlemen. They can be aggressive male to male, with no training, and females can aggressive towards males, but a male dog would not wanna hurt a female, ever. Correct? Yes. Attack? Nooo, never. I was out with my male GS on a beach, lots of dogs there. One in particular, a female, was almost psychotic. She was a Belgian shepherd, she tried attacking my dog when he was in reach. My dog who has 0 issues claiming a territory and showing dominance was sooo confused. He didn’t even bark, he jumped out and looked at her with pure confusion- what do I do? She’s a female, I can’t hurt her!
That's quite an imagination you have there. No employee works for affection because they have bills to pay, and the utilities don't stay on if you offer them a hug.
I applaud this owner for taking the time to work through her unique behavioral challenges! It's clear he loves her and wants her to have a full life. So happy to see that!! 😍
The owner probably has her locked in a cage 16 hours per day and that’s how she ended up this way 🙄 90% of modern dog problems are due to modern people doing stupid modern things like isolating their dog in tiny cages.
@@PumpkinWitch1her hip, back and legs really look unhealthy. Sure has hip dysplasia and this can be immensely painful for a dog and leads to aggression and irrational behavior as well.
@@OakwiseBecomingYou have no idea what this owner's story is. Joel has a video that was made for people like you. It's called “This is not the channel for shaming the owners.” And he means it. How in the world did your mind come up with that reason about this dog? That was not a question, but a statement of “Huh? What the Hell?”
Omg I thought I was the only one. Just had a huge discussion about this with someone online that insisted their backs were SUPPOSED to be roachy and that's how the breed was originally supposed to look. :/ what is wrong with people.
By sloped do you mean like it’s low down? Cause Iv seen pics of German shepherds from like 100 years ago or something like that and their backs are a lot higher up than they are now
That's crazy and what patience Prince has. We had two Border Collies and when one passed away, the other one stopped barking (she never really barked much to begin with but would join in when our other dog barked). She went almost a year before we heard a peep out of her. She barked because we left her outside too long and she wanted back in (and it was only one quick bark). I think in the remaining eight years of her life, she barked less than 20 times. Someone would ring our doorbell and she would get up and just stare at the door until we answered it. Now we have two puppies who whine and bark all of the time which is driving us bonkers.
I really wish that there was better education around working dogs. We have all these creatures who were, for thousands of years, born to do specific things and now that all that is forgotten they're expected to just laze around the house like a toy and anything else is seen as unwanted behavior when the owner is usually the one who didn't bother thinking about the needs of the animal they got. Not saying that's the specific situation here, but once she's calmed somewhat she definitely needs something to focus on.
And my friends think i'm crazy for letting their dogs correct my dog. Her whole demeanor changed as soon as Prince opened his mouth. Beautiful work yet again.
This is what's going to happen in our society with men vs. women. Men have been calm and lenient with women annoyance until men will reach the breaking point.
One of my sister’s dogs is really good about giving corrections. She’s told me that some people mistake it for aggression, which is crazy to me. He very clearly isn’t an aggressive dog and often tolerates a lot before resorting to a correction.
Gotta be careful with that though. Your friends thinking your crazy for it is a valid response, since it's pretty risky if their dogs aren't properly trained since they have a chance of actually harming your dog instead of just correcting the behavior through warnings
The main issue is people insisting on buying working breeds that need jobs, purpose and ways to release their energy, but their own family lifestyle just isn't able to provide what is needed. People should be picking the breed of their potential dog based on how it will fit into the family's energy levels and lifestyle, instead of just going with what they think is most cool.
I had a few clients who came to me because the border collie husky mix was restless and acting out in their. Studio apartment. Why did they get that dog
@@nessie6899 Pretty wolf looking brand. It's absurd how many people take dogs and just pets in general because they find it cool to own it. They don't think of the damage neglect does. So many little breeds and hyperactive/work breed need special treatment, hells, even labradors which are super family friendly compared to majority aren't that easy. Really, people just get puppies for the looks, and when they realize it's A LOT OF WORK, they either give up on the dog or abuse it cause they have no idea what it means to educate a dog. They treat it like an object to be playful for the 5% of the time when they decide they want to have fun, and quiet the 95% rest. Worst is that they usually treat the kids the same way when they have some, or let the kids have their way with it and it completely fucks the animal up.
These dogs, sadly, are dumped at the shelter and put down. Almost all the dogs at my city's animal control facility are shepherds and huskies. The suffering over-breeding and irresponsible purchasing is causing is unimaginable.
Breed this Breed that. Stop being racist. It's a dog. Just because it has certain gens it doesn't matter. It's how you raise it. Every dog can be working or family depending on upbringing and training
@@CJ-wh7ik you should probably research stuff before you claim it my friend. Dog breeds are bred specifically for certain purposes. Like it’s just a thing
It is so nice to see people in the comments not throwing a little hissy fit because you let your dog do his thing and teach the other a lesson. That's how it should be. Well done, man. Love these videos of prince. He's so awesome!
One of the best sessions I saw... This is exactly the kind of difficult dog where you and Prince really shine as a team, delivering wonderful progress in just a few tens of minutes! People not familiar with your work would call this impossible. Yet here we are. Thank you for all that you are doing for all the dogs and their owners.
it's very interesting that she's treating Prince like a sheep lol Once Joel pointed out her being wired for work but "not knowing what to work for" it became really clear. She's just treating everything and everyone, especially the other dogs walking and running around her, like a herd of sheep, barking to get everyone in place and obsessively watching a following some object of her attention but not getting any sense of purpose or completion out of these engrained behaviours in her, for these subconscious tasks, seems like. I'm no dog expert, so I could be completely wrong, but that's what it looked like. Very fascinating. Makes me think how so many breeds are potentially rly ill-fitted to be just random home pets for random families , unless the owners really have the whole environment for them that's appropriate to their dog's needs and special patters
Exactly! She has a deep instinct to work and herd that has now become an obsession since she wasn't given the proper outlet, training or (biggest issue) boundaries around what she naturally wants to do - no one is cooperating and following her directions, it's driving her nuts, poor girl! I have a friend who's family breeds and trains herding dogs, they had one that was born with some kind of heart defect so he couldn't safely do the training to become a "real" stock dog; they tried to keep him happy and raise him in the home, keeping him separate and away from the livestock, etc. but as you can guess...he quickly became obsessive and controlling of everyone's movements, nipping ankles, and BARKING like a lunatic (if you watch herding teams, while the dogs are working a lot of them bark constantly, especially super high energy ones), just like this girl. Very sad, he didn't know what to do with himself or appropriately express his natural instincts...but thankfully its turned out alright for him! He went to live with the owner of a rescue for pregnant dogs that come from Mexico (I help deliver pups when they get a mama with special needs/disability that makes it a high-risk birth, so I get to see him those times), my friend had visited the rescue and the dog was with her that day and somehow or another it was figured out that he LOVES puppies, his demeanor completely changed and he was so gentle and attentive that even the moms didn't mind him around the pups, and he fell in love with the woman who owns the place - so she agreed to take him in and he immediately found his 'job' as a (we call it) Special Forces Puppy Nanny, the last word in high-security puppy care.. he takes his job very seriously 😂 he gets to herd and guard pups 24hrs a day, he's super happy doing what he was born to do just on a muuuch smaller scale from livestock😅. Shows what can happen when we fulfill a dog's natural needs!!
This is super duper common with GSDs. NOt all of them but many seem to need a job of some kind and if they don't receive expectations and "orders" from the humans they'll find something to do on their own. I've made everything my GSD does into a "job" by treating all desirable behavior as his "duty", including settling down and relaxing. He's extremely good at adapting to new situations because I reinforced "adapting to new situations" as a job too lol
My Pyrenees Annie needed a job and my mother's family wouldn't give her one. She traveled with me eventually as my guard and shadow. I lived in a camper van at the time and we went everywhere walking, hiking, swimming. She needed a job on top of the exercise. One day, as a puppy she asserted herself as my guard in front of a cop. I was lucky the cop liked dogs and simply stepped back from us while he talked but I didn't want to rely on luck.
Loved the “Happy End”, I mean just to see that this dog is able to change her behavior is already a big and great result, I’m really glad for her owner 🙏🏽🐾 Also, congrats for the great job camera person, the angles and everything were perfectly captured and the effort (running behind the dogs lol) is very appreciated 😎
Excellent results on her. She's not the finished product in one day, but her life will get better as she improves. My rescue Staffy/Boxer cross is 95% improvement due to Beckman's methods and able to meet dogs now and say hello, considering I could not with 50ft of a dog without extreme leash reactivity and literally doing acrobatic flips, even at that distance. He is still not perfect and although fine with most dogs now, I've noticed that Bull Staffs and big dogs with long fur coats still trigger him slightly and require a slower introduction and corrections still. He had a challenge today, meeting two young and very highly excitable Staffys today, but with corrections to remain calm and after about 2 minutes of slow introduction, he was able to meet them. Great video Beckman.
Joel you are blessed with such an intelligent dog, I’m aware your a fab dog trainer, but having that intelligence with your dog makes life so much easier with their training!!
I'm sure adequate exercise, socialization and very good nutrition help bring the intelligence level up a bit. Seems like some of the visiting dogs are not well cared for/ neglected in some way, no matter their owners tax bracket
Prince trying to initiate play to see if that might help really just shows how intelligent he is! I've only watched a few vids so far and I was a little worried it was stressing him out a lot, but seeing that I'm pretty sure it's enriching to Prince too. How neat!! :)
Wow Prince has an incredibly high tolerance. Totally fair correction from him and it snapped her out of it!! Really great video and amazing transformation. I felt relief for that dog who seemed to be significantly less anxious with the other dogs later in the video.
Amazing to watch. Brought tears to my eyes. Prince not running off straight away as usual intrigued me, then you explained why....makes so much sense. What an amazing dog is your Prince.
Looks like she just needed another dog to show her the hyper energy and noise wasnt okay. At that point her mad energy and fixation broke and she discovered a new mode she can work in, a little calmer. Excellent to watch this in real time, and your socialisation exercises were fascinating too! You guys are great.
Like any bully from any species, they only do it until they cannot. You are bloody good Mr Beckman, I have learned a lot from your videos and have applied those lessons to our reactive Rhodesian Ridgeback. Thank you.
All Doberman's are awesome dogs. It's the only breed my wife and I, have ever raised. Abby is sitting next to me as I write this comment. She never leaves my side. And Charlie is always with my wife. Both, sleep on our bed with us. Just love the breed. Dobie's are so intelligent, loyal, loving. However, the breed is high energy. So you need to let the play, run around, etc.
That point at 4:40... lovely! like Prince looks to you to say, what do u want me to do boss. Never thought Dobermanns were like this (my only experience has been super aggressive dobermanns)...
This is an amazing video. Prince's correction was so accurate. The GSD seemed to undrestand immedieately that her behaviour was not appropriate . And after that, I found that Joel also provided appropriate and effective manners toward the GSD.
This girl looks and acts very similar to my King Shepherd! We've worked with ours a lot, but the barking is really something that we have always had to work with her on. Love your videos!!
My dog is actually a cross between a Great Pyrenees, Malamute, and German Shepherd. King Shepherd is absolutely a breed, but thanks for your concern dude.
it's not like most "breeds"are intermixed lolz. just look a lbradoodle... and often times the bastards dogs you are beter off with cause less health problems@@Spr1ggan87
The way this video ends up made me feel great, like a dog success story. You can really see her start to improve and be a happier dog. The owner is obviously trying to help this pretty girl.
It brings me in tears to see how we are just like them and how we humans need to call out eachother to progress in live, is beautiful what are you doing helping everyone, blessings ✌🏽💛
You could tell how Prince had used everything he had when he did the quick shake the stress out move, wasn't much later he lashed out. It's impressive how much Prince shows his feelings and where his thoughts are, you can tell how he's thinking in a lot of the video.
Prince is such an amazingly well trained dog. So impressive how far you have gotten him. If we all had your skills there is not telling what dogs of the world could all be capable of.
I am honestly training myself a "Prince" out of my next dog mostly because of these videos. I've dedicated my life to giving challenging dogs a second chance, but choosing that one puppy to assist in that will be so much more effective than just doing it alone. I believe I'll be able to help loads more dogs this way.
There is always a little bit of a gamble when getting a puppy because its personality isn’t fully formed. You might have better odds selecting a dog that already displays the traits that you are looking for, it could even be a young dog i just think it’s risky getting an 8week old animal with a specific intention and is worth thinking about an old pup/dog.
@@krystal6137 You can definitely see the basic temperament even in a puppy, I also have selected a breed with generally good social tendencies with other dogs. I will ask for a puppy with confident behavior because social skills can be taught, but basic temperament is set. I will also be asking for the breeders' help with choosing the right puppy. I have three breeders I will be contacting with details of what I'm looking the puppy for. I am not a puppy person, so I considered getting a 1-3 years old dog, but I want to maximize the use of the crucial socialization period. There's very few adult dogs available where I live that aren't available for one of the typical reasons for rehoming (but mostly behavioral issues - which is why I'm on this path). Also, it would honestly be nice to, for once, have a dog that I trained from the beginning and not patch up on top of other people's training. Last time I had a dog with fully-me training was when I was a kid.
Brilliant highlight of the differences in high prey drive breed like Shepherds and fun goofy guys like Prince. They all love to run but high drive dogs need to learn to stop and enjoy without needing to control everything and everyone. It's hard work sometimes. Prince taught this girl a great lesson. Well done. Hopefully with your insights her training makes a big difference.
I dont think this dog wouldve been able to get through this without Prince. Sometimes this is what is required. ETA: its almost like she was surprised that the 'object' of her obsession could also turn to her and tell her to knock it off. She was like 'huh???????’
Yes, that last comment of yours is so right. As a shepherding breed it is displaying behaviour a working sheep dog would towards livestock. The day a Kelpie or a Collie receives a seeing to or backs down because a sheep asserts itself is the day that dog hangs up its spurs! Once again, we've bred this into these dogs and it is our job to anticipate this behaviour is going to come out and we need to teach the dog the difference between a herd animal and a playmate!
I’ve seen a lot of dog trainers in my life, but Prince and you amaze me every time. I can’t say I ever heard of a trainer using a dog to train a dog. I’m just flabbergasted with your knowledge and the way you are able to read the dogs.
Zak George is calling the cops! Love the video. My GSD pup was corrected by two older GSDs and there’s been such an awesome change with him. He wasn’t this wild but it was a great teachable moment for sure.
Nice place… I am very grateful to find you !!!! My instincts are good but you always know why a dog is doing whatever And teach when and how to respond …. No mysteries Thankyou
I feel for Prince, the number of "crazy" dogs he has to face 😅🤦🏽♂️ Prince's correction did the job and solved the case, I loved it so so much! ❤👌🏻 Question though, why did you intervene to stop Prince? I mean, don't you think that Prince knows when enough is enough? Thanks for your great work 🙌🏽 Love from Brussels ❤✊🏽
This is just an assumption, but I would guess that it's for te benefit of the humans, so that mom, or dad don't freak out over it. It does look, and sound pretty scary.
Don’t feel bad for Prince, he’s lucky to have a job and he’s good at it. It’s all the working dogs with no job and no purpose or outlet that I feel sorry for.
Your videos are FASCINATING!! Good on these owners for realizing they need help, they've not only made their lives better but they've made their dog's life BETTER! Also, Prince is beautiful and I love your breakdown of what he is thinking!
Funny how Prince giving the correction......produced a kind of reality check......like when a child jams its fingers in a door for the first time, and the danger is realized.
This job was psychologically hard. Out of all the trainers I've met and have watched I am floored by you. I'm working my way into this field and wow you are spot on, and so good at handling and teaching the client too. I am very grateful
This is very insightful! We have an Anatolian Shepherd/Golden Retriever mix who reacts like the dog in this video to only a couple (usually non neutered/spayed) dogs in our neighborhood. I’d love to be able to work with him on this. I feel our dog needs to meet up with Prince someday!
I call an accidental bite, with an excited, barking, non aggressive crazy dog… “OOPS! “Caught a tooth”. “It’s Not a bite”… but still not ok. Joel is my favorite! Refer his videos to everyone (when appropriate) if we witness behavioral issues with “owners”… heehee… And I always tell people Joel’s partner is a beautiful Doberman named “Prince”. When I help people out (I’m not a trainer, but just like to help out) I use the techniques I’ve learned from Joel and Prince… My Doberman Ziggy is a pretty special partner too. Thanks Joel and Prince 🐕🙏👍
I’ve watched all your videos and love your style of training. Prince is amazing but your break down of dog behavior and psychology is really great. I wish we had clones of you and Prince, and I wish you were closer to FL!
I usually hate " intro's " but this one was perfect. Especially the wording referencing the predictable thing of prince being the saving grace, but still giving hope to the audience.
Prince is so awesome! A good friend and training partner. He reminds me of my Rottweiler I had years ago named Czar. Only tough when he had to be , and even then never to hurt only to defend and smart enough to only get the other dog to stop attacking without hurting it. Otherwise he was a gentle giant and so careful with kids and smaller dogs when he played with them. Such a good friend, truly missed but always in my heart.
Hi Joel...I seen Prince do this before in other videos, it's invaluable to have Prince do what we humans can't do in directing another dog to behave. I would bet that this owner would not question the invoice. Well worth the money whatever it was.
I think others have said this (and you’ve done this once or twice)…. I would love to hear from owners how things are going for them after they’ve been back home working on their own.
I always want to be entirely honest, so I'll say that there's been times I've been skeptical of certain things I've seen on this channel, albeit rarely. I always return though because I see how it works in every video. You really have a solid sense of a dog's emotions and it's very impressive to see you and Prince work. Don't stop doing what you do!
Well done! I’ve had Great Pyrenees for years and we walk everywhere. They are calm and big enough to swat anything down and go about their way. My dogs have taught at least a dozen dogs about respect. Prince was awesome!
When the Shephard trotted away from Prince it was almost a miracle. Your explanation of how her brain was working - how Prince shut that off and allowed her to run on a different track really helped me understand what you were trying to do. I'm so lad her papa looked for someone to help her - I pray he was able to maintain her progress.
Had a shepherd-corgi mix years ago and his grace and intelligence remind me of Prince. He was so kind and so in control, friendly and playful and just had a bright, warm soul. But when the other dogs overstepped their boundaries, he put them straight in their place just how Prince does, and everything was fine! We even had chihuahua PUPPIES and he disciplined them so gently. When they were in his face and he didn’t like it, he would growl and gently roll them on their backs and press his nose on their bellies for a second… and that was it! No harm done! He was an absolute chad and I’m so grateful i had him in my life. Cherish Prince, he’s one of a kind ♥️
It's the whole concept of striking your bully...once they realize they are able to be hit, they see change. Prince knows his job...be a dog but when helping you he takes over when that push is needed. He was so patient than finally just said "I've had enough and you need correction." Keep up the good work.
I have a dog daycare and I've noticed the dogs that have similar behaviors as this shepherd also lap water excessively fast. It is now one of the behaviors I watch on assessment day
Prince gave her a little bit of a spanking what she needed. She is not the boss on campus she needs to realize that. She has not always the boss! Well done again Prince you are the man!

Wow I can’t believe the stress tolerance of this owner, all of that barking would drive even the most patient person insane. By decreasing her barking by even a fraction of a percent you just improved this guy’s quality of life a thousand fold.
not to mention the hearing loss that comes with listening to constant barking! definitely saved him from hearing aids later on, lol
I agree - her barking is honestly psychotic - her barking is extremely anxiety inducing and she seems like she’s under enormous stress all the time.
nah, the reason the dog is like that is due to the owner's bad behavior and reinforcement of bad behavior.
@@videogames9972did you miss the part where the guy said a lot of female German sheperds have this behaviour? I'm sure the owner could've done more research into it but putting all the blame on him seems unfair and ignorant.
@@videogames9972 How would you recommend not reinforcing barking? How does one do that on accident? I'm not asking to be a smart ass, but I have 5mo GSD and although he doesn't bark often, when he DOES bark, he won't stop for a good 10 minutes. I have tried ignoring him, I've put him in his crate, I've corrected with commands (He knows sit, stay, and "chill" which just means relax.) But his brain just GOES when something triggers a bark.
Every time, I am just so amazed at Prince and the level of maturity and empathy he has. That is an incredibly intelligent dog.
Dobies are the best!
Dobermans are stupid smart
well trained thats all.
@@instakillermanthat's definitely not all, Prince is a very naturally intelligent and well tempered dog. Even very well trained dogs could respond very differently in this situation, given just how overwhelming this GS was. But training does absolutely play a huge role as well.
@@randomfactsthatdontmatter3466 You know this dog better than he does.
Behaviourist too?
If Prince keeps this up, you'll have to change the channel name to Prince's Dog Training.
That’s actually a good idea! Can a dog be a legally recognized employee??
Yeah, Joel’s gonna be out of a job!

😂 Ya he is a great dog
@@arturjaroszewicz8424No, because Joel will still have to deal with (what sometimes is) the worse : training the dogs’ owners 😉😁 (just joking 😉)
Non-stop barking drives me nuts! I feel for this guy!!! I have a pit bull who doesn't like people walking in front of the house, so she will stand at the window and bark. She is a good girl and very easy to train, so I taught her 'inside voice". When I give her the command, she goes from barking loud to barking under her breath When she just can't contain herself, she will grumble all the way up the stairs to try and get away with barking upstairs. She is funny, If I have to give the command again she usually keeps it down, but if she knows she "has to" bark, sometimes she will put herself in her kennel. Almost like putting herself in time out.
damn that's crazy!! never heard of the inside voice for a dog before, teaching a command like that is pretty impressive ❤
But you can't teach her to stop barking
@@blazedray9903dogs bark, trying to make them not bark is just fightin nature
@@blazedray9903You can't teach a chatty person to not talk anymore ever, you can't teach a child not to get excited, and you 100% also can't teach a dog to never bark again. Fighting nature my friend.
Could also take her outside on lead and de-sensortize the dog to people walking past the window its really easy to stop a dog with that behaviour its nothing like a chatty person mote like the scared person who screams as soon as someone comes near them no need for it no excuse sort your dog out bet your neighbours hate you
Something interesting I noted - after Prince corrected here (and she stopped barking) she had her tongue out panting. I guess she couldn't do that while she was barking all the time, but it's a pretty clear demonstration that something changed in that dogs brain. Great job as always to you both!
Yes as well panting if they aren't hot is also an anxiety response too
@@hotbread1004and someone can correct me if I’m wrong, but I’d definitely say this is anxiety induced panting based on “tail up curiosity”. I can only assume the anxiety comes from the idea that this was her first moment where Prince corrected her into a spot where she instantly knew she was now no longer the dominating, in your face alpha, but now the submissive beta. It’s kind of like a school bully that loves to intimidate and then gets that dose of reality and instantly calms down.
@@kevinexline5392 the alpha and beta thing has been disproven ... I cant believe people still are dumb enough to believe a false study of wolves. Not to mention that dogs developed a whole different structure. Dog trainers who believe that are trash lol
She was working without knowing why, workersdogs are hard, they need a purpose.
@@GayTruckDriver agreed. When my father stopped working our farm, our kelpie sheep dog basically went mad from not having anything to do any more. It was really sad. I always tell people not to get working dog breeds if they can’t run them until they drop every day. Otherwise they and the dog are going to have a difficult time.
I can tell you from a GSD owner’s perspective, they are a high maintenance dog when they are puppies. You have to train them early and often. Mine is 7 and if I lapse, I see things that may grow out of control. I get compliments all the time about how well behaved he is. He is well behaved because he is well trained. Same goes with kids! Haha
I wish there were trainers like this in my country... my gsd is also reactive but no bark, he will just lunge
@@travelandfestivalsmy dog used to lunge so I asked him to sit when he became reactive. He never did, of course. Then one day he did without me asking. He saw a dog, ears went up, then he sat down. Now he just glides past other dogs.
@@ness-eewow! You kept sowing the seed and eventually it took root!
Same here, she's very naughty if she wants to be. But my wife is 4ft10 so we can't have massive dogs that aren't trained.
@@travelandfestivalsthey do have trainers like this, it's you, you can do this, I have a shepherd, trust me.
I have never seen Prince just stand like a statue as soon as he came from the deck....thank you for breaking this down❤ Prince is so good at his job❤️
You see the trust he has in Joel! 😍
@@lulumoon6942 Absolutely 💯
Prince’s temperament was AMAZING, I can’t even imagine a PERSON staying SO stable and good spirited ALL the way through this, even AFTER correcting her it was like nothing even happened, totally content and happy and at peace. It actually brings tears to my eyes, at moments, in shear respect and admiration for him, not just seeing it as a dog but an admirable quality even for a human. Amazing!
He’s also a male against a female. As little puppies with 0 training whatsoever, males often give up to females just to let them win. They know they’re stronger, but their instinct is to be gentlemen. They can be aggressive male to male, with no training, and females can aggressive towards males, but a male dog would not wanna hurt a female, ever. Correct? Yes. Attack? Nooo, never.
I was out with my male GS on a beach, lots of dogs there. One in particular, a female, was almost psychotic. She was a Belgian shepherd, she tried attacking my dog when he was in reach. My dog who has 0 issues claiming a territory and showing dominance was sooo confused. He didn’t even bark, he jumped out and looked at her with pure confusion- what do I do? She’s a female, I can’t hurt her!
Prince is absolutely amazing, you could tell he was analysing the dog bit by bit, absolutely incredible intelligence.
Imagine owning a company with your #1 employee works not for $, but affection. That's Prince!❤
Princes gets treats
That's quite an imagination you have there. No employee works for affection because they have bills to pay, and the utilities don't stay on if you offer them a hug.
.... the comment above mine is unironically hilarious
@@truthseekerKJV damn you lack reading comprehension skills.
I applaud this owner for taking the time to work through her unique behavioral challenges! It's clear he loves her and wants her to have a full life. So happy to see that!! 😍
That "unique behavior" looks like an ebreed behavior
The owner probably has her locked in a cage 16 hours per day and that’s how she ended up this way 🙄 90% of modern dog problems are due to modern people doing stupid modern things like isolating their dog in tiny cages.
@@PumpkinWitch1her hip, back and legs really look unhealthy. Sure has hip dysplasia and this can be immensely painful for a dog and leads to aggression and irrational behavior as well.
I hope her owner takes her to the vet to get that checked out.
@@OakwiseBecomingYou have no idea what this owner's story is. Joel has a video that was made for people like you. It's called “This is not the channel for shaming the owners.” And he means it. How in the world did your mind come up with that reason about this dog? That was not a question, but a statement of “Huh? What the Hell?”
Her sloped back breaks my heart..
Omg I thought I was the only one.
Just had a huge discussion about this with someone online that insisted their backs were SUPPOSED to be roachy and that's how the breed was originally supposed to look. :/ what is wrong with people.
@@EliStu06 you can tell how young someone is based off these sorts of nonsensical arguments. :( it's sad...
@thatonekid9400 unfortunately they were actually a long time breeder/show handler......just contributing to the problem
Sameeee
By sloped do you mean like it’s low down? Cause Iv seen pics of German shepherds from like 100 years ago or something like that and their backs are a lot higher up than they are now
That's crazy and what patience Prince has. We had two Border Collies and when one passed away, the other one stopped barking (she never really barked much to begin with but would join in when our other dog barked). She went almost a year before we heard a peep out of her. She barked because we left her outside too long and she wanted back in (and it was only one quick bark). I think in the remaining eight years of her life, she barked less than 20 times. Someone would ring our doorbell and she would get up and just stare at the door until we answered it. Now we have two puppies who whine and bark all of the time which is driving us bonkers.
“And give her a treat for being the best girl in the world” that’s the best thing I’ve ever heard from him that’s so sweet ❤
She seems like a really sweet dog who's just been jobless for too long. Great work as always 😊
I really wish that there was better education around working dogs. We have all these creatures who were, for thousands of years, born to do specific things and now that all that is forgotten they're expected to just laze around the house like a toy and anything else is seen as unwanted behavior when the owner is usually the one who didn't bother thinking about the needs of the animal they got. Not saying that's the specific situation here, but once she's calmed somewhat she definitely needs something to focus on.
And my friends think i'm crazy for letting their dogs correct my dog. Her whole demeanor changed as soon as Prince opened his mouth. Beautiful work yet again.
This is what's going to happen in our society with men vs. women. Men have been calm and lenient with women annoyance until men will reach the breaking point.
One of my sister’s dogs is really good about giving corrections. She’s told me that some people mistake it for aggression, which is crazy to me. He very clearly isn’t an aggressive dog and often tolerates a lot before resorting to a correction.
Gotta be careful with that though. Your friends thinking your crazy for it is a valid response, since it's pretty risky if their dogs aren't properly trained since they have a chance of actually harming your dog instead of just correcting the behavior through warnings
The main issue is people insisting on buying working breeds that need jobs, purpose and ways to release their energy, but their own family lifestyle just isn't able to provide what is needed. People should be picking the breed of their potential dog based on how it will fit into the family's energy levels and lifestyle, instead of just going with what they think is most cool.
I had a few clients who came to me because the border collie husky mix was restless and acting out in their. Studio apartment. Why did they get that dog
@@nessie6899 Pretty wolf looking brand. It's absurd how many people take dogs and just pets in general because they find it cool to own it. They don't think of the damage neglect does. So many little breeds and hyperactive/work breed need special treatment, hells, even labradors which are super family friendly compared to majority aren't that easy. Really, people just get puppies for the looks, and when they realize it's A LOT OF WORK, they either give up on the dog or abuse it cause they have no idea what it means to educate a dog. They treat it like an object to be playful for the 5% of the time when they decide they want to have fun, and quiet the 95% rest. Worst is that they usually treat the kids the same way when they have some, or let the kids have their way with it and it completely fucks the animal up.
These dogs, sadly, are dumped at the shelter and put down. Almost all the dogs at my city's animal control facility are shepherds and huskies. The suffering over-breeding and irresponsible purchasing is causing is unimaginable.
Breed this Breed that. Stop being racist. It's a dog. Just because it has certain gens it doesn't matter. It's how you raise it. Every dog can be working or family depending on upbringing and training
@@CJ-wh7ik you should probably research stuff before you claim it my friend. Dog breeds are bred specifically for certain purposes. Like it’s just a thing
It is so nice to see people in the comments not throwing a little hissy fit because you let your dog do his thing and teach the other a lesson. That's how it should be. Well done, man. Love these videos of prince. He's so awesome!
One of the best sessions I saw...
This is exactly the kind of difficult dog where you and Prince really shine as a team, delivering wonderful progress in just a few tens of minutes!
People not familiar with your work would call this impossible. Yet here we are. Thank you for all that you are doing for all the dogs and their owners.
She is a good girl. She deserves to have this because it will show her mind and body to relax a bit when she sees other dogs, as well as her owner.
"very few people have a prince in thier life" 😂 oh so true!
Prince is aware and listening during his corrections. That's absolutely incredible.
it's very interesting that she's treating Prince like a sheep lol Once Joel pointed out her being wired for work but "not knowing what to work for" it became really clear. She's just treating everything and everyone, especially the other dogs walking and running around her, like a herd of sheep, barking to get everyone in place and obsessively watching a following some object of her attention but not getting any sense of purpose or completion out of these engrained behaviours in her, for these subconscious tasks, seems like. I'm no dog expert, so I could be completely wrong, but that's what it looked like. Very fascinating. Makes me think how so many breeds are potentially rly ill-fitted to be just random home pets for random families , unless the owners really have the whole environment for them that's appropriate to their dog's needs and special patters
Exactly! She has a deep instinct to work and herd that has now become an obsession since she wasn't given the proper outlet, training or (biggest issue) boundaries around what she naturally wants to do - no one is cooperating and following her directions, it's driving her nuts, poor girl! I have a friend who's family breeds and trains herding dogs, they had one that was born with some kind of heart defect so he couldn't safely do the training to become a "real" stock dog; they tried to keep him happy and raise him in the home, keeping him separate and away from the livestock, etc. but as you can guess...he quickly became obsessive and controlling of everyone's movements, nipping ankles, and BARKING like a lunatic (if you watch herding teams, while the dogs are working a lot of them bark constantly, especially super high energy ones), just like this girl. Very sad, he didn't know what to do with himself or appropriately express his natural instincts...but thankfully its turned out alright for him! He went to live with the owner of a rescue for pregnant dogs that come from Mexico (I help deliver pups when they get a mama with special needs/disability that makes it a high-risk birth, so I get to see him those times), my friend had visited the rescue and the dog was with her that day and somehow or another it was figured out that he LOVES puppies, his demeanor completely changed and he was so gentle and attentive that even the moms didn't mind him around the pups, and he fell in love with the woman who owns the place - so she agreed to take him in and he immediately found his 'job' as a (we call it) Special Forces Puppy Nanny, the last word in high-security puppy care.. he takes his job very seriously 😂 he gets to herd and guard pups 24hrs a day, he's super happy doing what he was born to do just on a muuuch smaller scale from livestock😅. Shows what can happen when we fulfill a dog's natural needs!!
This is super duper common with GSDs. NOt all of them but many seem to need a job of some kind and if they don't receive expectations and "orders" from the humans they'll find something to do on their own. I've made everything my GSD does into a "job" by treating all desirable behavior as his "duty", including settling down and relaxing. He's extremely good at adapting to new situations because I reinforced "adapting to new situations" as a job too lol
My Pyrenees Annie needed a job and my mother's family wouldn't give her one. She traveled with me eventually as my guard and shadow. I lived in a camper van at the time and we went everywhere walking, hiking, swimming. She needed a job on top of the exercise. One day, as a puppy she asserted herself as my guard in front of a cop. I was lucky the cop liked dogs and simply stepped back from us while he talked but I didn't want to rely on luck.
Maybe she's just a nut. I walked GS before including a huge female named Donna. Quiet as rocks.
You're right many herding type breeds are totally unsuitable as pets unless you're willing to put in the time and exercise
Your knowledge of the German Shepard is PRICELESS. I love all your videos, especially this one ❤
they are basically a giant chihuahua😂
Hahahaha@@vikingdogmanship
They can be the most wonderful dogs and they are. They just need to be in the right hands.
Loved the “Happy End”, I mean just to see that this dog is able to change her behavior is already a big and great result, I’m really glad for her owner 🙏🏽🐾
Also, congrats for the great job camera person, the angles and everything were perfectly captured and the effort (running behind the dogs lol) is very appreciated 😎
Excellent results on her. She's not the finished product in one day, but her life will get better as she improves.
My rescue Staffy/Boxer cross is 95% improvement due to Beckman's methods and able to meet dogs now and say hello, considering I could not with 50ft of a dog without extreme leash reactivity and literally doing acrobatic flips, even at that distance. He is still not perfect and although fine with most dogs now, I've noticed that Bull Staffs and big dogs with long fur coats still trigger him slightly and require a slower introduction and corrections still. He had a challenge today, meeting two young and very highly excitable Staffys today, but with corrections to remain calm and after about 2 minutes of slow introduction, he was able to meet them.
Great video Beckman.
Joel you are blessed with such an intelligent dog, I’m aware your a fab dog trainer, but having that intelligence with your dog makes life so much easier with their training!!
I'm sure adequate exercise, socialization and very good nutrition help bring the intelligence level up a bit. Seems like some of the visiting dogs are not well cared for/ neglected in some way, no matter their owners tax bracket
And of course good breeding!!
One of your best videos Joel! So informative! Thanks to the owner for allowing you to video this session. She’s a beautiful German Shepherd!
Prince is amazing & so patient. He deserves a weekly spa day for having to deal with being annoyed & stressed by these dogs.
Prince trying to initiate play to see if that might help really just shows how intelligent he is! I've only watched a few vids so far and I was a little worried it was stressing him out a lot, but seeing that I'm pretty sure it's enriching to Prince too. How neat!! :)
Wow Prince has an incredibly high tolerance. Totally fair correction from him and it snapped her out of it!! Really great video and amazing transformation. I felt relief for that dog who seemed to be significantly less anxious with the other dogs later in the video.
Amazing to watch. Brought tears to my eyes. Prince not running off straight away as usual intrigued me, then you explained why....makes so much sense. What an amazing dog is your Prince.
Prince is THE bestest boy🥰
Prince dish it back like u want bark & etc at me i give ur bull shit back how u like it
@@havok9001 - While the other god was muzzled lol
Thank the trainer first 😅
OMG, the most sweet yet funny moment is Prince being barked at, he looked up at Joel and goes in for a hug as if to say ''This f****** chick man...''
Looks like she just needed another dog to show her the hyper energy and noise wasnt okay. At that point her mad energy and fixation broke and she discovered a new mode she can work in, a little calmer. Excellent to watch this in real time, and your socialisation exercises were fascinating too! You guys are great.
Your commentary is so helpful. Thanks to you and Prince! 😉
Like any bully from any species, they only do it until they cannot. You are bloody good Mr Beckman, I have learned a lot from your videos and have applied those lessons to our reactive Rhodesian Ridgeback. Thank you.
This is why I recommend this channel to anyone who asks me about dog behavior. Perfect explanation and discussion on how to deal with it.
Really well done, to EVERYONE involved here, including the puppies.
All Doberman's are awesome dogs. It's the only breed my wife and I, have ever raised. Abby is sitting next to me as I write this comment. She never leaves my side. And Charlie is always with my wife. Both, sleep on our bed with us. Just love the breed. Dobie's are so intelligent, loyal, loving. However, the breed is high energy. So you need to let the play, run around, etc.
That point at 4:40... lovely! like Prince looks to you to say, what do u want me to do boss. Never thought Dobermanns were like this (my only experience has been super aggressive dobermanns)...
This is an amazing video.
Prince's correction was so accurate.
The GSD seemed to undrestand immedieately that her behaviour was not appropriate .
And after that, I found that Joel also provided appropriate and effective manners toward the GSD.
This is probably my favorite correction. The shepherds body language was gold. Amazing video.
The amount of work you do in the session is crazy. You go beyond for a lot for your clients. You are so fair and honest.
This girl looks and acts very similar to my King Shepherd! We've worked with ours a lot, but the barking is really something that we have always had to work with her on. Love your videos!!
King Shepherd isn't real breed and the name is false advertisement, what you have is a GSD/Shiloh Shepherd cross
Say it louder for those in the back, lol! I laugh every time I hear of that crossbreed@@Spr1ggan87
My dog is actually a cross between a Great Pyrenees, Malamute, and German Shepherd. King Shepherd is absolutely a breed, but thanks for your concern dude.
@@eh7322It isn't, it's not recognised and you've just proven my point. You don't have a "King Shepherd" you have a cross. It's false advertisement.
it's not like most "breeds"are intermixed lolz. just look a lbradoodle...
and often times the bastards dogs you are beter off with cause less health problems@@Spr1ggan87
Another great one! Love how Prince is so aware and looks at Joel to assess if he can do what he wants to do. Prince is truly a prince.
The way this video ends up made me feel great, like a dog success story. You can really see her start to improve and be a happier dog. The owner is obviously trying to help this pretty girl.
I get so much out of watching you work, I'm very thankful you post your training sessions with these dogs
It brings me in tears to see how we are just like them and how we humans need to call out eachother to progress in live, is beautiful what are you doing helping everyone, blessings ✌🏽💛
You could tell how Prince had used everything he had when he did the quick shake the stress out move, wasn't much later he lashed out. It's impressive how much Prince shows his feelings and where his thoughts are, you can tell how he's thinking in a lot of the video.
Prince is such an amazingly well trained dog. So impressive how far you have gotten him. If we all had your skills there is not telling what dogs of the world could all be capable of.
I am honestly training myself a "Prince" out of my next dog mostly because of these videos. I've dedicated my life to giving challenging dogs a second chance, but choosing that one puppy to assist in that will be so much more effective than just doing it alone. I believe I'll be able to help loads more dogs this way.
There is always a little bit of a gamble when getting a puppy because its personality isn’t fully formed. You might have better odds selecting a dog that already displays the traits that you are looking for, it could even be a young dog i just think it’s risky getting an 8week old animal with a specific intention and is worth thinking about an old pup/dog.
@@krystal6137 You can definitely see the basic temperament even in a puppy, I also have selected a breed with generally good social tendencies with other dogs. I will ask for a puppy with confident behavior because social skills can be taught, but basic temperament is set. I will also be asking for the breeders' help with choosing the right puppy. I have three breeders I will be contacting with details of what I'm looking the puppy for.
I am not a puppy person, so I considered getting a 1-3 years old dog, but I want to maximize the use of the crucial socialization period. There's very few adult dogs available where I live that aren't available for one of the typical reasons for rehoming (but mostly behavioral issues - which is why I'm on this path). Also, it would honestly be nice to, for once, have a dog that I trained from the beginning and not patch up on top of other people's training. Last time I had a dog with fully-me training was when I was a kid.
Prince is so controlled for an alpha dog. Shows the great skills of your work Joel. Well done sir! 🙌👏
Brilliant highlight of the differences in high prey drive breed like Shepherds and fun goofy guys like Prince. They all love to run but high drive dogs need to learn to stop and enjoy without needing to control everything and everyone. It's hard work sometimes. Prince taught this girl a great lesson. Well done. Hopefully with your insights her training makes a big difference.
This is the kind of training lots of dogs (and people) need but are afraid to do and it ruins their lives. Excellent work
I dont think this dog wouldve been able to get through this without Prince. Sometimes this is what is required.
ETA: its almost like she was surprised that the 'object' of her obsession could also turn to her and tell her to knock it off. She was like 'huh???????’
Yes, that last comment of yours is so right. As a shepherding breed it is displaying behaviour a working sheep dog would towards livestock.
The day a Kelpie or a Collie receives a seeing to or backs down because a sheep asserts itself is the day that dog hangs up its spurs!
Once again, we've bred this into these dogs and it is our job to anticipate this behaviour is going to come out and we need to teach the dog the difference between a herd animal and a playmate!
I’ve seen a lot of dog trainers in my life, but Prince and you amaze me every time. I can’t say I ever heard of a trainer using a dog to train a dog. I’m just flabbergasted with your knowledge and the way you are able to read the dogs.
Zak George is calling the cops!
Love the video. My GSD pup was corrected by two older GSDs and there’s been such an awesome change with him. He wasn’t this wild but it was a great teachable moment for sure.
State of mind is so key. Thank you for raising our awareness. This is true of humans also.
THANK YOU for saying a prong collar is not the answer PREACH 🙌
Nice place… I am very grateful to find you !!!! My instincts are good but you always know why a dog is doing whatever
And teach when and how to respond …. No mysteries
Thankyou
I feel for Prince, the number of "crazy" dogs he has to face 😅🤦🏽♂️
Prince's correction did the job and solved the case, I loved it so so much! ❤👌🏻
Question though, why did you intervene to stop Prince? I mean, don't you think that Prince knows when enough is enough?
Thanks for your great work 🙌🏽
Love from Brussels ❤✊🏽
I was wondering that too
This is just an assumption, but I would guess that it's for te benefit of the humans, so that mom, or dad don't freak out over it. It does look, and sound pretty scary.
Don’t feel bad for Prince, he’s lucky to have a job and he’s good at it. It’s all the working dogs with no job and no purpose or outlet that I feel sorry for.
@@OffGridDogs absolutely, we get that. Really we do.
@@KristaBrzezinskiI think you are correct🐾❤️
Your videos are FASCINATING!! Good on these owners for realizing they need help, they've not only made their lives better but they've made their dog's life BETTER!
Also, Prince is beautiful and I love your breakdown of what he is thinking!
Prince is one well adjusted confident dog ❤
How great she is doing towards the end! Love it!
Great teaching session Joel and the team 👍
This vid should go viral, your explanation of what the dogs were doing and why was excellent. 👏👏❤️🇬🇧
Funny how Prince giving the correction......produced a kind of reality check......like when a child jams its fingers in a door for the first time, and the danger is realized.
This was a great video. You can see such a night and day difference here after he corrects her.
Prince is such an awesome pup!
This job was psychologically hard. Out of all the trainers I've met and have watched I am floored by you. I'm working my way into this field and wow you are spot on, and so good at handling and teaching the client too.
I am very grateful
This is very insightful! We have an Anatolian Shepherd/Golden Retriever mix who reacts like the dog in this video to only a couple (usually non neutered/spayed) dogs in our neighborhood. I’d love to be able to work with him on this. I feel our dog needs to meet up with Prince someday!
You are so god damn smart. Phenomenal seeing a master's craft. Both you and Prince. Blessings.
So cool to see the development of Prince. Great video!
Thank you such much dear Sir, for speaking clean English language, understandable for all People 👍💐👌🐕
Satisfying to see Prince kicking into action when it's needed.
🥰🥰🥰 Good boy Prince! Hope you gave him a big treat for telling the dog... "Enough"!
I got my popcorn ready for this one!🍿
I have candies, lol! 😂
This is great. Prince is like a therapy dog for other dogs ❤️ such a good boy 😍
I call an accidental bite, with an excited, barking, non aggressive crazy dog…
“OOPS! “Caught a tooth”. “It’s Not a bite”… but still not ok. Joel is my favorite! Refer his videos to everyone (when appropriate) if we witness behavioral issues with “owners”… heehee… And I always tell people Joel’s partner is a beautiful Doberman named “Prince”. When I help people out (I’m not a trainer, but just like to help out) I use the techniques I’ve learned from Joel and Prince… My Doberman Ziggy is a pretty special partner too.
Thanks Joel and Prince 🐕🙏👍
There is a lot of wisdom is understanding animals, excellent video
I’ve watched all your videos and love your style of training. Prince is amazing but your break down of dog behavior and psychology is really great. I wish we had clones of you and Prince, and I wish you were closer to FL!
I usually hate " intro's " but this one was perfect. Especially the wording referencing the predictable thing of prince being the saving grace, but still giving hope to the audience.
Boss Prince is baaaaack!! Good work as always!
Prince is so awesome! A good friend and training partner. He reminds me of my Rottweiler I had years ago named Czar.
Only tough when he had to be , and even then never to hurt only to defend and smart enough to only get the other dog to stop attacking without hurting it.
Otherwise he was a gentle giant and so careful with kids and smaller dogs when he played with them.
Such a good friend, truly missed but always in my heart.
Honestly, what great work you and prince do!
Hi Joel...I seen Prince do this before in other videos, it's invaluable to have Prince do what we humans can't do in directing another dog to behave. I would bet that this owner would not question the invoice. Well worth the money whatever it was.
I think others have said this (and you’ve done this once or twice)…. I would love to hear from owners how things are going for them after they’ve been back home working on their own.
Prince is a incredible dog, I love watching these videos.
I always want to be entirely honest, so I'll say that there's been times I've been skeptical of certain things I've seen on this channel, albeit rarely. I always return though because I see how it works in every video. You really have a solid sense of a dog's emotions and it's very impressive to see you and Prince work. Don't stop doing what you do!
Well done! I’ve had Great Pyrenees for years and we walk everywhere. They are calm and big enough to swat anything down and go about their way. My dogs have taught at least a dozen dogs about respect. Prince was awesome!
This Shepard moves so fast, when the video started, I thought my playback was on 1.5 speed. Crazy.
Same! 😮
When the Shephard trotted away from Prince it was almost a miracle. Your explanation of how her brain was working - how Prince shut that off and allowed her to run on a different track really helped me understand what you were trying to do. I'm so lad her papa looked for someone to help her - I pray he was able to maintain her progress.
thanx for not giving up on that shep 😊
Had a shepherd-corgi mix years ago and his grace and intelligence remind me of Prince. He was so kind and so in control, friendly and playful and just had a bright, warm soul. But when the other dogs overstepped their boundaries, he put them straight in their place just how Prince does, and everything was fine! We even had chihuahua PUPPIES and he disciplined them so gently. When they were in his face and he didn’t like it, he would growl and gently roll them on their backs and press his nose on their bellies for a second… and that was it! No harm done! He was an absolute chad and I’m so grateful i had him in my life. Cherish Prince, he’s one of a kind ♥️
It's the whole concept of striking your bully...once they realize they are able to be hit, they see change. Prince knows his job...be a dog but when helping you he takes over when that push is needed. He was so patient than finally just said "I've had enough and you need correction." Keep up the good work.
I have a dog daycare and I've noticed the dogs that have similar behaviors as this shepherd also lap water excessively fast. It is now one of the behaviors I watch on assessment day
🤣🤣🤣
Prince is such an amazing dog honestly you are such a great owner ☺️ best wishes to you both
Prince gave her a little bit of a spanking what she needed. She is not the boss on campus she needs to realize that. She has not always the boss! Well done again Prince you are the man!
wow! Excellent video! Good info in this one. You probably gave this girl and her owner a better life.
