Appreciate the effort you put into it. Truly. People just think because a dog is “smart” in their opinion, that’s where the magic of a working dog comes into play and it all just happens and little to no training or effort is required.
You’ve just turned Maslow’s pyramid into the bite world of working dogs. Like Maslow you have made elegant dog training Perfect mate 💪 the guys who teach me are experts and you are one of the few who really know their shit. Well done.
Awesome stuff ..... I can never thank you enough for sharing your knowledge and taking time to make these videos .... Love from NEPAL man ... Thankkssss ... :)
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience. I've often heard about Drives but this explains it to me. I'm a new sport dog owner and in the steep learning curve that goes with that. Your channel is excellent.
The best explanation of Prey Drive I have seen. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge, this is my first time training a German Shepard puppy for protection, I can say there is a lot of training the handler needs first to teach the puppy properly.
You are flipping amazing thank you for doing these videos. I have two dachshund that don't listen to anything and nothing changes that not food. Oh, I take that back for one and for the other, but they're together. I can't do anything with these dang dogs, but you showed me how to snap that leash and I've already got one backing up at the door and sitting down and a minute you're amazing thank you And just follows. WOW❤❤❤ YOU!
I equate you to a trainer for a professional fighter. Psychology, physical work, confidence building and much more need to go into training these dogs. Impressive!
I love that you disscuss the genetics. Esp with the working Shepherd vs the show lines. People dont offten understand the original intention of a breed. Keep it up neighbor, love from the U.S.
I love your graphs man! 😂. Joking aside… I love the piramid and your thorough explanation. Now it makes a lot more sense to me! I have 2 mals : one female with a high pray drive but not loud, just laser focused, good bite and very possesive. The other is a male , very strong pull, good bite but no much posession. Thank you for sharing your knowledge 👍🏼
Thank you for this, I am failing at the "Arousal" part, I use the back tie, back my dog she doesn't show much when on it. She whimpers more than actually bark and trying to come forward. It's only been a week on the back tie, but that's where i'm currently at when it comes to that.
Are you being a jackoff? Explain what do you mean by Micheal Ellis it sounds like your saying that it is a copy of Micheal Ellis work. If that is what your trying to say that would laughable! Ellis if he had 24/7 seven days a week for the rest of his life to study he could not have a understanding of the mind of the dog and how it works like haus does it is a gift he has! Anyone like you going around making statements like that could get hurt. Please be careful what you say on facebook!
what tools you use to solve each of these problems?. It would be interesting a video about the defense drive. Thank you for taking the time to make the videos and share your knowledge
I’d loved to see a video on how you build up the nerves of a dog. My mal can get pretty skittish (he doesn’t shut down completely, just looses some commitment and focus) with some things and I wanna try and bring his confidence and nerves up so I don’t put him in a state of panic. It doesn’t take much to calm him down but I’d rather not have him get in that state of mind in the first place
I know you did some selection video(s) for puppies, but what is the process like from when you first get a dog/puppy til you start training to use prey drive? Do you start with basic commands? And is it a good idea for a person to train their own dogs for personal protection work, given that the training is done properly? Thanks for the content! It really does make me realize that this subject is not so simple as it appears. As a suggestion for more content (other than the questions above), I noticed you say that some dogs go right into the "prey triangle" and some take more stimulus. Can you expound on what the dog looks like in say an everyday setting, versus a working state, and when/how a dog switches between those two states? Or does it just become a tool/command like the typical "sit" or "down" commands?
Hey Haz, loved your little charts and explanations 👍 The examples of dogs A,B & C you are training were good, too. And you're right, not a lot out there that explains it very well. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us. Now, i just need a good source of info about why some dogs are never going to be " okay with cats". I'm guessing it all has to do with how well they are socialized as puppies? Thanks in advance. ( I left comment here on 6/6 asking about it)
I have a rescue German shepherd and she is a bit uncomfortable to load noises how do I work on that with her so I could build her confidence and hopefully train to bark on command
You Say it so well Some dogs have the ability to finish some don't And if you play with these you would notice on 100% some have more of the animal drive than others Some people are survivors some people are not same thing
Are fight drive found In pit bulls and prey drive different side of the same coin? Can you have fight drive without prey drive? It seems like you can have prey drive without fight drive but it's not common to have fight drive without prey drive.
I'm glad others think like I do with animals! I have people all the time. Hey I want to pay you to train my dog. Then they get upset when you tell them they're dog will not do well in protection training. They get upset. Like you said there's usually a crack in the dog.
really nice man, can you do more stuff with APBT? I see you using a loto of GS. I have a pitbull and I'm training him for protection work. thanks for all the great advice!
Do you have any suggestions on getting a k9 to chill out when another male dog is walking by? Not sure if this helped or not but when he was a puppy he had a male dog try to attack him in his yard, and some kids used to mess with him and get him going while in his yard, i dont mind him barking but every once in a while he just goes a lil overboard man, other than that he is a very obedient dog just seems a lil territorial obviously but id like to find a way to calm him down a bit in those situations, thanks
My dog has an extremely high prey drive for these field bunnies outside of our home and she bucks up starts barking and lounges at these damn things. I’m not sure if she would catch one tho because those things are fast as fuck and don’t want to test the theory because there is a street near by.
I'm curious to know what happens when perhaps you run into those clients who have dogs who have better than average prey drive but the owners have no intent to work on bite work or protection? In those situations it seems like you would want to deter the dog from its natural tendencies.
Their prey drive will adapt into whatever you want them to focus on, not necessarily “bite work or protection”...or one specific task associated with such. Their prey drive will convert into ability to want and work for a reward, think simply in psychology. If their prey drive isn’t diverted into rewards then higher prey drive will turn into neurotic behavior and problems.
Searching for answers to a dog with high prey drive and CATS. Fostering a dog that needs to be "Ok with cats " from just wants to kill cats. Anyone? Is that why it's always included that a dog is always classified that way? Either "OKAY with cats " or "NOT okay with cats ". I'm thinking once the dog is grown, especially without any training or self control, that it's too late to "train" the prey drive out of them. I'm thinking that's why the dog is classified as " not ok with cats". Thoughts, anyone? My thought is that it's just best to not let this type of dog be around cats. At least, not MY cats. The risk of the cat being injured or killed is just too high. I'm believing the dog needs professional dog training, and to always be classified as " NOT ok with cats". Thoughts, anyone? Thanks. Looking for answers for me and the foster family. I honestly could not answer their questions. ( This is all I know about it,, if someone could recommend a book or video to refer them to,, the subject seems to be all over the place on this topic....?)
I’m an engineer so this makes sense for sure. One thing! Have you tried any RADAR CHART? it may help you trying to display the same data you presented us. Happy new year Mr. Shield 👍🏻
Superlative exposition of the drive! If I didn’t know better, I’d say y’all hired Dateline NBC’s crime and pedophile busting Chris Hansen to narrative this clip! Lol
One night there was 3 people in back of my mother and stepfather place and my German shepherd was bar so i went to see what she was bar at then me and German shepherd went back their together and two of them back to a different car and she didn't back up to me and it was dark out
Just curious... how come pit bulls aren’t used for these jobs? These dogs are extremely powerful, fast and intelligent. I wonder if all the pit bulls in shelters can be trained to have these jobs. My pit bull has most of these qualities and she has never been trained. Just was wondering.
Same reason they stopped using Dobermanns, people are scared of them. If an APBT runs into a room in front of a 7 year old girl that was kidnapped it’d be more traumatizing than a Malinois with it’s high-pitched bark sounding like a dying pigeon. Plus they mix APBTs in the KNPV Malinois pretty often, so it’d just be inconvenient to rebreed APBTs to have significant hunt drive when they already have Mals, Dutchies, and GSDs.
Or they have too much drive and can’t think or shut off, they were bred to not shut off for too long. These dogs completely lose their minds when presented with anything resembling prey!
Holy fucks. You spent 4 minutes repeating yourself, with information that is incredibly irreverent. We already clicked on the video with such title. You don’t have to defend yourself for 1/8th of the video. Just freaking get to it. Ps, great information here.
Very nice of you to share your years and years of research to everyone.
Thanks so much, you are generous with your knowledge...

Super good info for new people willing to do it in the sport of bite work to have correct protection methods !!!!
I love that you disscuss the genetics. Esp with the working Shepherd vs the show lines. People dont offten understand the original intention of a breed. Keep it up neighbor, love from the U.S.
Thank you for sharing, this is very helpful ,game changer learning 🙏
Thank you so much for this. Appreciate it more than you realize
Your a good teacher. For me, I can train the dog; Its the human thats hard! 😊

Thank you. Great info, as usual.

Good Stuff! I did get away with mistakes and bad training, due to good genetics !! With my first couple IGP dogs.
what tools you use to solve each of these problems?. It would be interesting a video about the defense drive. Thank you for taking the time to make the videos and share your knowledge
Love your videos bro thanks so much
Very interesting perspectives!
Amazing info! Thank you!
Id love to see a video on how to start you're dog in actual protection, starting on the sleeve and bark and hold etc. And what commands to use
There are plenty of videos. Just need to look back through the posted videos.
theyre all over this channel
Awesome video

That kind of dog sounds like my cat with anything that moves 🤣😆😂
How do you test nerves in green dogs?

really nice man, can you do more stuff with APBT? I see you using a loto of GS. I have a pitbull and I'm training him for protection work. thanks for all the great advice!
How’d that work out?
Here for the commentary lol
Do you have any suggestions on getting a k9 to chill out when another male dog is walking by? Not sure if this helped or not but when he was a puppy he had a male dog try to attack him in his yard, and some kids used to mess with him and get him going while in his yard, i dont mind him barking but every once in a while he just goes a lil overboard man, other than that he is a very obedient dog just seems a lil territorial obviously but id like to find a way to calm him down a bit in those situations, thanks
Teach him not to!! Collar correction or ecollar. Should take 2-3 corrections if done properly.
In a nutshell “Prey Drive” is the dog’s overwhelming urge to get to a church! Cheers mates!!
I see what you did there🙏😂
I tried to make it as obvious as possible 😂! Brilliant! Cheers mate!!

how to stop dog poop eating pls advice i am from india Bangalore i have black lab , i have achieved great training by watching your video
Superlative exposition of the drive! If I didn’t know better, I’d say y’all hired Dateline NBC’s crime and pedophile busting Chris Hansen to narrative this clip! Lol
It's Arousal, pursuit, grip and eat when it comes to natural prey drive not trained prey drive.
One night there was 3 people in back of my mother and stepfather place and my German shepherd was bar so i went to see what she was bar at then me and German shepherd went back their together and two of them back to a different car and she didn't back up to me and it was dark out
I want to see how you stop a sight hound from lungeing at small animals
Talk about fight drive and if you believe it or not, your going to get alot of views.
Just curious... how come pit bulls aren’t used for these jobs? These dogs are extremely powerful, fast and intelligent. I wonder if all the pit bulls in shelters can be trained to have these jobs. My pit bull has most of these qualities and she has never been trained. Just was wondering.
Pit bulls are K9’s. Service dogs. PTSD dogs for veterans. Therapy dogs. Hearing assistant dogs. SAR dogs.
Same reason they stopped using Dobermanns, people are scared of them. If an APBT runs into a room in front of a 7 year old girl that was kidnapped it’d be more traumatizing than a Malinois with it’s high-pitched bark sounding like a dying pigeon.

My mother old house didn't have a big place to pay with a ball with the German shepherd i used have
