Thank you for being here!! Leave a comment and let us know what you think about this series, and give us your suggestions for future videos!! 🤩
Thank you so much for not making your sessions look like magic and sharing your frustration. I was in tears tonight walking my reactive dog. I had thought we made progress and then she went back to the old behaviors . Seeing this made me realize that it can be frustrating but to keep going
At 26:34 u left her door open
@@luvulord2 aww I hope she's getting better now and I hope you're okay
The Guide elaborates on the techniques used on the show. The examples given in the ruclips.net/user/postUgkxECnmSvBSv_NGWx4_ChD73pF3NYZwI2F3 are helpful and some of the techniques suggested very useful. One such technique/tool suggested was the lure stick to encourage a small dog to keep up with the heel command. I have a small dog who lags behind smelling any and everything and find it hard to keep bending over while walking to his level. The lure stick is great also for another dogs focus and sprinting at anything that catches her eye. The stories about different dogs, their different temperaments, have been helpful, especially Lulu's: After reading about Lulu's challenges I felt relief concerning one of my rescues that I have had for 10 years. Over many years I have checked out many training books from the library, watched different shows, DVDS, bought training books, taken lessons and this book is the best by far! Kindness, patience and perseverance works.
Let’s just take a moment to appreciate Zak’s patience with this dog. It can be frustrating to train a reactive dog.
It can be frustrating to train any dog. But it's particularly frustrating and challenging with reactive and/or fearful dogs. We've got an adolescent at home right now, and I am constantly having to remind myself "teenager; she's supposed to push boundaries and "forget" what I've taught her".
@@janhankins911 I'm in the same boat as you 😂🥲.
I'm getting so many tips from him to train my reactive retriever x
@@mtspp5801 look up tom Davis or fenrir canine training
IKR
"Celebrate progress, and don't insist on perfection." What a great mindset.
After working so hard with Moira there's no way I'd be able to say goodbye and find her a new home, she'd be mine.. gorgeous dog.. nice work Zak.
Tell me about it! She’s wonderful!
This series has been life-changing. My dog is a 60 lb Catahoula/pit mix rescue. She's had MAJOR behavior and reactivity issues. My dog even started exhibiting more aggressive behavior after she was introduced to a prong collar. While all training must have consistency, utilizing Zak's methods allowed me to see every minute as a training session because it's practical and makes sense. Training this dog has been harder than raising a kid. The trainer told me not to use a harness but it works so much better for her! The trainer told me NOT to walk or play with her before our sessions so he could always observe her at her worst. That didn't make sense to me. My dog started not wanting any leash or lead. She knew it meant "training time." Now she's been bringing me the leash for last week just begging to go out to explore the world (and doing so in a much more socially acceptable manner). Thanks, Zak.
That trainer sounds like an idiot.
Definitely a idiot trainer who has no right using tools or training dogs I beg you to check out Tom Davis also don't blame the tool Blame the dumb trainer
@@kfc3930 But you blame R+ instead of the trainer ... :-D
Melissa I agree with you. Zak is a good trainer. Some tactics take longer than others. Also, it is ok to employ every tool you need to, as long as you are working with the dog . I had to have my beautiful pit mix euthanized a few weeks ago because she got away from me and attacked a dog. I regularly worked on her reactivity to dogs from the time she was a puppy. I had 2 different trainers, with the second being an expensive ecollar program. The ecollar trainer told me to rely on the ecollar, but I had to run her with a harness, the ecollar and a star mark pinch collar to keep her from pulling me over. I also went early in the morning to avoid seeing any other dogs. It was something that I couldnt train out of her.
I am now fostering-to-adopt a Shepherd-Lab mix from the shelter who thankfully is not dog reactive. But she is reactive to men. Zack's tactics are working with her. It is slow and steady.
@@thevintagemom5455 So you were unable to train one dog, killed it, and then just took another? Woooowwww.
I love how warm, loving and firm, Zak is. So many trainers seem too rigid and unrelateable
Moira is so smart
First true thing I read. The dog is brilliant. The trainer is a Bafoon. I challenge Zak george to any shelter any place any time and I'll take the worst dog they have. Painful and sad to watch this.
@@justincappuccino5648 Jak of!
@@justincappuccino5648 I'm guessing you support balanced training so do I but insulting and talking shit isn't going to make anything change other then you looking like a idiot instead of talking shit explain what you think he's doing worng the trainer isn't a idiot he just misunderstands certain things and also there is more then one way to train a dog
@KFC Finally someone who agrees!!
@@kfc3930 The problem is not positive reinforcement but Zak himself. He is really a subpar R+ trainer. A lot of reactive dogs will not profit from balanced training but EVERY dog has a response to R+.
Thanks for emphasizing and promoting least-aversive methods, management vs. punishment, awareness of behavior and body language, and explaining balancing training with play and calm! So important for reactive dogs! That's why I think this is your best series yet! ♥️🐾
Thank you! It’s so rewarding to read comments like this. It’s a journey!
I resoundingly concur!
Pls Anyone reply to me pld
Hi
Totally agree!!
Your patience and humaneness is incredible! Your perspective in working with dogs could help parents with their children. I'm not equating children with dogs, but learning how to interpret behaviors, learning how not to take it personal -work with it, breaking things down into steps...so many benefits for parent training....not equating parents with dogs either. But honestly, many parents could use your classes and benefit!
These series are so high quality in terms of both filming and editing, i cant believe we get to enjoy this on youtube for free!
It is pathetic if Zac George calls this dog training...
I'd really love to see you work more with smaller dogs (aside from the one-off videos you have.) A lot of people don't bother with training small dogs which is how so many turn into yappy little nightmares. I've got a small puppy now, and I'm trying to train her, but not everything translates well to a smaller package.
Yes, I'd like to see Zak work with a small dog, as well. We now have a small breed dog and I'm finding I've had to adjust my training a lot. I've found it's actually easier (physically) to train a larger dog. Training my itty-bitty, I'm bending, stooping, and sitting on the floor much more often. And my itty-bitty doesn't seem to be "getting" the entire concept of house training and I never had a problem with the big dogs grasping the concept of "go outside to pee/poop".
I concur. I have a 9 month MinPin. He’s a high energetic obedient pup. We’re having troubles with stay and has poor door manners. We’re working on it but it would be nice to see how to better hold a leash,etc. Great job Zak!
One of the best things I've found is to get the little ones out and about and introduce them to other dogs, especially larger dogs so they won't get "small dog syndrome" and end up in trouble later.
@@janhankins911 yes! I enrolled my dog into doggie daycare so he could slowly introduced to larger dogs in a controlled environment. My last minpin definitely had a Napoleon complex. Thankfully, the larger dogs in our neighborhood were very nice.
I totally agree, i feel larger dog breeds learn and grasp ideas muchh faster and smaller dog breeds is just difficult.
Who else doesn’t have a dog but still watches 😌
LMAO, yeah same!!! He is the greatest!
XD same!!! From what I know my family is going to own a dog so I decided to watch dog training vids just incase
@@DrOlfPH Wow, I'm so happy for you! Maybe you can teach him/her tricks. That's aweseome
@@applehead_mjinnocent3826 Yeah, I hope I'll be able to train it properly
Same! We want to get a dog sometime in the next year so I have been watching to get prepared and then practicing on my in-law's dog haha It's harder than he makes it look, but we are both getting better at communicating with one another. Thank you for the great videos!
He presents training in 7 days. Each of 7 items are commands that he believes a dog should know. They are presented in part ii of the book ruclips.net/user/postUgkxK8-VQWpYThx4IC6MiIvb6VS1ebTzzdxq . The parts of the guideare divided: part i know your dog part ii the seven commands part iii cures for 7 behavior problems. Each chapter presents a topic, a dog's story, and a "what to do". It was written simply and you can jump from chapter to chapter to review anything as needed.
I love how you have been taking the time to explain throughout this series why you aren't using choke, prong, or E-collars on Moria. I train dogs with the positive reinforcement training methods, and I love to hear you say why you prefer to use them over force, corrections, or negative consequences. You are truly training the dog when it figures out for itself that it is better to pay attention to you instead of reacting to its surroundings or other living things. I have loved this series. Thank you for taking on such a challenging dog so that people like me can learn how to train them with positive training methods!
I will be sad to see Moira go, but I’m so happy with the progress you’ve made in such a short time and can’t wait for the next one! Seriously loving the rescue dog series!!
I counted down the minutes until (9:00) when he posts, and I am totally not ashamed.
It's actually reassuring to see you, Zak, having to step in and pick up Moria, to help cooldown the outburst. I had to do that a handful of times with my past dog. He was a handful! Wish I'd found your channel 10 years ago. On the other hand, he enjoyed baths. Sometimes, he thought the bath was for him, when it clearly wasn't! 😂
My dog would jump in the bath me 😂 even when I told her no
🤣Loved you running from Moira carrying the fish. Also love your energy and enthusiasm. You and Bri are the cutest couple. Can't thank you enough for sharing all your experiences and knowledge
It's so nice to see how small steps can add up over time to noticeable progress...and even better how it teaches the dog to listen because they WANT to rather than to avoid negative consequences. Thank you also for showing the treat size, that was helpful.
Absolutely!!
Long story short, I was rescuing and rehoming dogs but had a hard time letting them go so now I have four🤪 Two Shepherd mix and two Beagles, and boy is it exhausting lol. They sure could use Zak’s training, he’s great.
I appreciate the 2 week training mark or goal. By having a shorter deadline, it helped me to understand what is most important or ESSENTIAL for a dog to grasp (and owner to focus on). I love Moira and of course would love to see more of her, but I felt like this series was super beneficial from a learning standpoint!
“Can I have a sit please, thank you” 😂😂😂 he’s soooo nice and polite with her I love it
very confusing for the dog
Tbh that’s exactly the right dog for me. High maintenance dogs drain you out of all your energy and mess up your house...but they’re my jam, I just ADORE their temper, it reminds me of the wild.
Yep.. I’ve got one 😂
High maintenance... Please give your dogs proper excersise and training. Dont keep them cooped up in the house and yard all day. I 100% understand why dogs get behavior problems... it not because of what breed they are. It's who and how you raise them.
My dog is well trained and lives outdoor. But he still manages to be indipendent, stubborn and extremely playful and I love him for that.
Viking Dogmanship I would never think about leaving my dog outside alone, he needs about 3+ hours of exercise and mental stimulation to be satisfied and he would probably destroy my backyard if i left him alone when he has all that energy.
@Greta Bi - The word is "temperament," not "temper."
I'm so sad and happy at the same time that she's already adopted... I would love to have her as my big sister!! ❤ you are doing great Zak!! And I believe I'm a perfect pup as I have completed my 30 day perfect pup 💕 thank youu
I love your patience with hyperactive dogs like moira. She needs a person who is disciplined, athletic or equally energetic. Pray she gets adopted by such a family. Every animal is like a toddler and an individual human being with individual personality. I personally don't like any harsh treatment or punishments for adults let alone kids and animals. Moira is so lively and your interaction with her was fun to watch. So thank you.
She is an absolutely gorgeous girl. So many times dogs are told they not a good fit but how many times do humans ask am I a good fit for the dog? She is one of the most intelligent and alert Germans I've seen so quick to catch on and she bonded with you so fast you can tell she has been craving that guidance and those boundaries. Love your work will continue to watch
I really appreciate these training videos because they show reality. In dog training there will be good days and bad, good minutes and bad, but you can see progress over the long haul and that's key. I have a very reactive minpin who is 10 yrs old. I work with him every day and he's come a long way. He knows lots of tricks and our bond is strong. He still has his break downs, but I'll never give up on him.
these videos are edited
I adopted a rescue Shepard mix this January. She is around 8 months and her biggest issues include jumping on other people, mouthing, and getting overexcited. These videos have been fun and encouraging to watch :)
Same here. I have a 5 month old Australian Shepard. I love him so so much! I’ll be off work for the whole summer in a month and I plan on doing a lot of training thru out the summer with him. I found a few training classes to help too and dog parks so I’m super excited to get started. In the meantime these videos are super helpful and I’m making some progress with him. He has issues with jumping on us and nipping at our hands while playing with toys and a few other things I want to work on.
Right there with you! Same with my 9 month Malinois/Doberman.
@@jennb9373 Tip: use a harness and a leash on inside to. step on the leash everytime when about to jump and nipp. Dont use your hands and dont make a big deal out of it. Lots of praise when the dog offers another response like looking at you, sitting or laying down. Remember to build your dogs vocabulary, they learn fast
i love it Morias like "ok this is undignified, PUT ME DOWN"
I love this series.. And we would love to watch more of your daily life with the dogs around!! Please do a "Day in my life "💙💙
Yes!!!!!
Im honestly addicted with this series!
My little cat Luna has just watched this whole video, absolutely entranced. I'm not sure if she's more interested in Zac or Moira, but it's been lovely watching her watching you! (I'd add a photo if there was a way to do it on RUclips. I'm going to show her more Zac George videos now, as she's so interested. And no, we don't have a dog but I think Luna would like one!)
Haha!! Hi Luna!! Butt scratches from Bree and Zak 😻🙌
I love mixing training with play. Play is a great reinforcer for good behavior and it gives dogs a small mental break from the hard work of learning. And I really admire Zak for taking Moira on and training her in two weeks. I have taken on many dogs like Moira, I don't give myself two weeks only! I am, by no means, a professional dog trainer, but I can't imagine having a two-week "deadline" for this type of training.
Hey Zak, I just wanna say thank you SO much for these videos. I just put my deposit down on my dream puppy after 14 years of dreaming. He’s due Feb 2022 and he’ll be a White German Shepherd! These videos have been a safe haven for me during a transitional period of my life. I really appreciate your positivity and knowledge. I hope after watching your videos for 8 months, over and over again, that I can train my puppy well. Thank you!
Thats great! Check out these two free puppy ebooks as well www.simpawtico-training.com/learning/downloadables/# they are great. All the best to you
She’s a great dog and lucky to have Zak training her. Whoever adopts her will be lucky.
Hey Zak! Can you please do a “day in my life” video? It can show when you feed Moira,, when you exercise her and all that. But if you still have to focus on training videos instead, maybe you can do a day in my life video with your next dog.
I really love the way you train her. It takes a lot of effort, but you can see the steps forward she makes. Very clever girl. Lots of small steps, make a huge step and therefor difference! I read she got adopted, briljant job Zak👌
Zak, THANK YOU for this video. I just started fostering a 4 month old German shepherd and my house overlooks a dog park. She barks every 15 minutes. I'm now managing her (and myself!) a lot better. This is the video I needed! Thank you!
I would love to see a video about what the follow-up plan is for Moira. Spending significant time on training her is exactly what she needs - but the reality is most families don't have that much time or education to train a dog like Moira. If she stayed with Zak I'm sure she would progress and eventually be able to lower her reactivity. What's a realistic follow-up plan or recommendations to make sure her forever family is able to continue to see progress. This is coming from a Reactive German Shephard dog momma and is meant in kindness. I've seen too many dogs like Moira returned to the shelter because of regression. Just wondering what Zak would be able to do to help make sure that doesn't happen.
I haven’t checked but I hope he went through with this idea! I’m about to start working with my bosses dog who is a golden/poodle mix and I want to be able to create a long term plan for them especially when I’m not around!!
I totally agree!!!
Please tell us how ypu worked with her new home... or what they did. She just doesn't seem ready to generalize to someone not Zak.
Thank you so much for these videos! I've learned so much and I've actually started being able to make progress on my 11 year old dog's dog reactivity. We're to the point where I can take her out places with us and I know I can get her attention away from the other dogs. ❤️
I am impressed with how well she is doing! She has come so far in training!
Shepards are so vocal...mine talks back all dang day🙄😅😅😅
Yes! I have a Belasky mix and she always talk like she's so frustrated 😅
Mine too! When i say “No” he talks back. My neighbour complained about his barking and asked if i can put a bark collar! So annoying! Mine is a toddler and they never understand.
kathleen Acosta I adopted a 4 month old german shepherd and in the 2 months that I have had had her she has never barked, I wish she would bark 😭 she just whines but never barks :( :(
@@sc-ps1ek I don’t have a Shepard but in the first 3 days my puppy didn’t bark but then he saw an ad with elmo in it in tv cocked his head back and forth and started barking😂😂😂so try seseme street I guess😂😂😂😂😂
I'm a balanced trainer, which means I can use the tools available to me but will always be force free first and foremost. I have been enjoying watching you train, one thing I wish is that you were more consistent with your markers and commands. Lack of consistency or clarity is rough on the dog, I wouldn't want that on their best day.
Love love love how you showed us the details and full training sessions without many cuts in this video! Very helpful!
My wife likes to watch me struggle then just film it instead 🤣🤣🤣
🤷🏼♀️🔥🔥🔥🔥
Hey i got your books and they were really helpful , and i got a puppy a week
ago , Thanks for all your help zak
Congratulations on your new puppy! Enjoy the heck out of your baby and great luck with training.
I love seeing such great progress with Moira. She's such a good girl and deserves this extra attention and love ❤
this is exactly how I feel with my pup pup, OVERWHELMED! felt so validated when Zak said it. now, on to watch the rest of the video, and hopefully learn some skills because the lunging and barking is negatively effecting my relationship with my puppy! (a rescue that I was told was a collie mix; I'm guessing more like a jack russell mix! super strong prey drive!!!) Thx Zak! 'preciate all these videos!
i love watching your progress with Moira! she's gorgeous and doing so well!!
Yess this would be great!!!
Thank u for not using choke chains
Moira is looking great - she's a beautiful dog. It's good to see what persistence in training can achieve.
In a world of Cesar Milan's, let's all strive to be Zak George's
Moira is doing so great she is going to make such a great dog for a very lucky family!! Also would love to see a training series with a pittie for one of the next ones. Good stuff as always Zak!
Done!
Moira and Zak, you two are helping Symmetry (GSD) and myself, thank you!
Hi Zac, this series has been fantastic in helping my reactive dog. Indy. He's a small cavachon but wow this is helping so much. I don't know if it's me but it does take a while to find the right episodes. So hopefully I will be able to find it easily enough.
I want to say thanks to your videos because I know I don't have a perfect dog but I'm still trying to train him.
I believe the pup in your profile pic is your dog and he is perfect!!
@@asherthepug6337 thank you so much for the comment I appreciate it so much! Any ideas on recall?
At first I was watching this and had no plans on getting a dog, but now I'm adopting a goldendoodle. 😂
Did you know that the guy who invented the labradoodle regrets it? Just an interesting bit of info on those breeds. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/labradoodle-inventor-wally-conron-admits-he-s-done-lot-damage-ahead-us-westminster-kennel-club-dog-show-9115851.html
Funny how that happens. Try out the 30 pupford academy training. It’s a great training program if you are planning to train from home and want free lessons.
@@cd4536 One of The most popular breed in my country. People pay crazy prices as long as there is a poodle in there. They are the naughtiest dogs there is😅And they love eating socks
Viking Dogmanship what country are you from? It’s the same here. The designer dog trend is strong.
@@MinPinSteve thanks for the tip! I do plan on training my puppy at home so I'm glad to hear advice.
As a volunteer working in GSD rescue, this is exactly my own approach working with a GSD.. they are highly sensitive and intelligent dogs and the last thing you want to do, imho, is to keep doing corrections and other negative punishment techniques, when you really want them to have a good association with other dogs and other things they react to..
Mora is so smart. She has done a 360👏I love this series. I love waking up every Sunday and having this notification and I look forward to it all week! Zak you are a great trainer. Up there with Cesar Milan. Keep up the the great work ❤ from Mississippi
These videos make me feel so much better about my German Shepherd X Husky. He isn't the best boy out there but like Moira, he's definitely getting there.
My newly adopted 9 month old Belgian Malinois/Doberman is all Moira and more. I love these videos, they give me hope that I can accomplish some amount of training. We're still working on sit, down and fetch. You're a life saver.
Well, you should have known what you were getting into seeing those two breeds. ;-)
@@DaveDEF82 nope. Just adopted a puppy that needed a home. I found out everything after he arrived.
@@almarussell3151 check out LAT (Look At That) Training and these two free puppy ebooks www.simpawtico-training.com/learning/downloadables/# I hope that helps:)
Moira is doing so good! I have a beagle puppy who is almost a year, and her focus is terrible. Anytime she is in a new place, she acts as if she hasn’t learned anything at all, but we are still working on it. Definitely have to work more from home first just like most dogs
Zaks so amazing person...and very long patience to a dog.. My mochi also hardheaded sometimes.. But she so funny to...
Zak running away from the dead fish cracked me up 🤣🤣
My GSD is almost 3 had same problem she was so full of energy barking lunging doesn't help I was a first time owner and 70yrs old but time and a lot of different walks fetch and playing in the river I can now say she is nearly fully trained but still keep up her training daily I love her so much so hopefully there is someone who can see the beautiful girl she will grow into thanks for all your help
Thank you for making these videos.
I have a beagle American pit terrier mix and also a blue heeler who is deaf. They're loving dogs, but do not do well on walks or behavior. The beagle pit is extremely energetic and wild. The challenge with the blue heeler is her deafness. I've been watching your videos for a few weeks now and teaching my dogs some things. Both dogs are soooo smart and slowly making progress. You're videos are teaching me how to work with them, but also helping me not to feel so alone in my struggles with these two dogs. Thank you for making the videos. They are a huge help!
This is super helpful and encouraging-- thank you, Zak! I watch a lot of your videos and while they are helpful, I struggle to relate to them because honestly, Inertia seems like such an angel! She seems so easy to train? But Moira here is a lot like our own pupper -- reactive, energetic and stubborn. So it's super encouraging to us to see you make progress with her!
Consider watching Inertia from day one on my channel! Glad you’re enjoying this series too!
When you were squeaking the toy at the end my dog came running from the other room looking for his toy 😂
My dog is super reactive too. Heeler/collie mix. I would lean more towards he’s aggressive. I’ve had to hold him back and he’ll get so worked up he’ll turn his head and nip at me! He’s terrified of cars. Will work on having him tied up in a long leash or holding leash and playing outside with distractions around.
please look elsewhere for training tips. Amy Cook is a great resourse
Thank you so much for doing this with positive reinforcement!
This GSD structure is on point. Beautiful dog!
She is skinny, but young healthy females can be skinny the first 2 years of their life.
Interesting to watch. I have a lot of experience with GSD's , and we have just picked up a nearly 3 year old rescue who is like Moira on steroids. And a dog! He has had some good training before, and gets a lot right. But he "has a Moira" when taken to the vets, guarding the car boot, guarding a bench seat on a walk, sitting at a table in a bar, and (some) other dogs whilst on a lead. We have sorted out the home environment, and are making glacial progress on the other stuff. Zac's example has been a big help.
Throughout this series you've been saying "I've only got two weeks to train this dog so that someone will be willing to adopt her." Two weeks is quite the challenge for helping a reactive dog overcome their excitement over seeing other dogs, especially if fear and aggression is involved. I understand that's not the case with Moira. As I understand it, she just wants to meet the other dogs. Of course, the biggest fear here is that she will cause a fearful or protective dog to attack her. I'm just wondering what would happen if it takes longer than two weeks. Is there any reason you couldn't get an extension for her training?
I think the shelter only allows them to work with her for two weeks?
It might be a situation where he is being paid by the shelter to do a "board and train" with Moira, and they can't afford to compensate for more than 2 weeks. It may also be that Zak had prior engagements with other dogs or other board and trains booked beyond the 2 weeks given.
@@someembarrassingLPs Yeah, that makes sense. I'm just very compassionate about reactive dogs; and it pulls at my heartstrings.
@@carolynvines2027 I think if it were a situation where Moira had aggression towards other dogs, and by the end of the two weeks she was still not manageable for the average owner, a good trainer might recommend an extension or a very specific home. At least that's what I would do if I were in that situation. But usually 2 weeks is just to get the dog to a manageable state so it can be trained or continue to train with the average owner rather than needing a professional to handle it. Anyone expecting a full turnaround in two weeks, especially if the dog is actually aggressive, is expecting too much.
i think i wanna be a vet or dog trainer training dogs is so fun i’ve been watching your videos forever and trained my aussie because of you
You can be both! You can be a "veterinary behaviorist". These are folks are attend veterinary school and are vets, but then they go to additional training to learn all about behavior. If I were younger, that's what I'd do with my life. Veterinary behaviorists are the best and they can take "total" care of a dog--both from a medical stand point and from a behavioral one. We need more veterinary behaviorists and they're in pretty great demand at that point.
@@janhankins911 I might be that then i’m only 14 and i’ve always wanted to be involved with animals since i was little
@@suri3568 I hope you will--we need veterinary behaviorists. It really is my "dream job". Good luck!
I'm on a prevet track in college right now and it's hard as hell but if you work hard and are dedicated, it's super rewarding! Def get out there and get experience in real life! I started working at dog daycare when I was 15 and it helped me learn a lot.
@@gabriellemccarthy3623 Yep, I agree with you. Real world experience is invaluable. It will show you if this is "really" the field for you and you learn so much. Good luck in your studies.
Please make a video when she finds a family. I would love to see who takes this smart girl
I know I've already said this, but I absolutelly love the intro, its just sooooo good!!
Your training is amazing, and its working great with my 4 month old lab/Rottweiler. She has a gentle loving personality, but doesn't know I'm around if out in public. So back to training in the backyard for a little while. Moira is such a beautiful dog and she's doing so well. Zak your channel is a godsend. Thank you
I love watching Zak's vids even though I don't have a dog 🐶
Zak's video's just helped me work with my dog when three ducks flew into my back yard. I knew exactly what to do because of his series of videos. Thanks Zak
Aww, Moira is such a smart cookie.
I’ve been waiting on a video like this for months! My dog Ringo is reactive over dogs. So so hard! So thank you so much! 🙏🏻
I love moira!! I bet if you could keep her you would, surely your attached to her by now??? She's so lovable.. I'm fortunate that iv a German same age as moira and they are extremely similar, I'm so lucky to have my girl bell she is family at 9 months old still learning and training she's such a joy to my life and she's come along way in herself the change is something else, moira loves you too please try keep her ❤️
I have missed a lot but catching up. Can't wait to see chapter 10. Amazing job as usual 😊
Hey zak,
Just watched this newest episode! Moira is looking awesome! You did a great job on her bath training and showed that patience and working through each situation with your dog will always be the most rewarding method and can yield wonderful results! Thank you so much for making these videos and for helping each dog have it's best chance at a wonderful life alongside us humans :)
Brilliantly relevant to me and my dog/me issues. Thanks so much
so grateful for your honest and patient journey. you're a fantastic teacher - I'm getting another puppy soon and I can't wait to integrate the learning.
We have a high energy & reactive dog & it's been quite overwhelming & even disheartening at times. Progress has been slow but she's getting some things down pat (woo!). This has honestly been my favourite of all dog training series I've watched. Your patience is amazing & you've done so well
My girl is super reactive and following your videos is really helping. She's getting loads better. I still can't let her off lead but it's early days and she's come so far. Really amazing series, your patience is endless!!
Wish you were closer.
We're working with a very smart shephard/lab mix that's just under a yr. old. We're training her to be a service dog but both myself and my daughter are adhd and she's also ASD so gets frustrated easily. I feel like your calm demeanor would benefit both her dog and her. lol
I so enjoy your videos and try to apply what I have learned with my 10 month old puppy boy named Koda. You guys rock!
I’m getting a baby bernedoodle on the 29th of May and my parents are going to be training her, Thanks for the videos I can’t wait for my parents to watch them and learn a lot from them.
Your DA BOMB. Absolutely amazing.Your the only thing that made my parents whant to get a puppy.Thank you so much for all your work🙂
Also loove the intro
She reminds me a lot of my Bernese mountain dog. 😳 but what a gorgeous and sweet dog!
Hi zak, i know you will never see this but i just really wanted to thank you so much for this video, it's amazing to have influencers like you promoting positive reinforcement, because I have seen a bunch of trainers tell us to use force in training, but you have really inspired me to be patient and kind to my dog. Thank you again!!
U are such a patient person
Keep up the good work :)
It’s really nice seeing a reactive dog and how you manage her, ‘reality’ dog training indeed! 😅
What is it now? Managing or training? Because management is not training.
Zak .G EORGE'S DEFINITELY THE DOG WHISPER & MY FAVORITE GSD TRAINER !!! THANK YOU SO MUCH, WATCHING VIDEO YOU UPLOAD! DE
