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!! 🤩
Wait, this was only his 6th day with you? Wow. It's so easy to forget the timeline when watching this series. He's such a good boy!
Zak is so unintentionally funny 😂. *Picks up leg* “it’s okay I’m vaccinated”
Your videos should be mandatory to watch for dog owners, I bet there would be far less pups in the shelter, if more people would follow your advices. Thank you for your hard work
Agreed!! So true
Tbh it makes me want to adopt a dog even less because it would obviously take away all my free time to keep it trained
@@radiationshepherd Well dog ownership is a long term commitment, just like having a child. If you are not willing to sacrifice your time to ensure the dog's best life per your best abilities, the only responsible thing for you is not adopting.
Anyway, by the original comment I tried to say, there would be far less dogs in the shelters - not because more people would adopt, but more people would knew how to take care of their dog properly and wouldn't end up in the shelters at all.
I dont think Zacs methods would work for alot of shelter dogs, most people train their dog to walk politely for more than 30 seconds too.
@@radiationshepherd Do you think this takes a lifetime? Depending on dog and trainer, training can be done pretty fast and then it becomes routine as the dog has learned. Smooth sailing from there as long the dog knows what you want pretty much. It really ain't that hard. Especially when it is a dog that is eager to please.
I’m so amused that Zak always builds up how hard a trick might be for dogs to learn, like roll over, and takes pains to say it may take weeks or even months to teach a particular trick, then George just gets it on the first try.
When I had my first Pitbull we were on a morning walk in a similar area, me with some flip-flops on wet grass
as suddenly a bunny started running and my dog chasing after him. Before I could say a word I was like waterskiing through the park ,
if I were 10 pound lighter he would had me flying like a kite on the leash 😁
Grassy water skiing is kinda scary when you ain't got no grip to stop yer dog.
I had a dog that was like that with squirrels and he was a HUGE German Shepard that weight about 75-80 lbs solid muscle who I was actually (unwillfully yet knowing it gave him a better xhance if I couldn't be his forever home) training to be a police dog incase I had to move into a place that didn't allow dogs or let alone big dogs which can be hard.
Well we went out for our morning walk and like you I had the following obstacles to content with to which I thought I was on the losing end of the game cause I was in flip flops, dewy covered morning but also heating up and squirrles EVERYWHERE!
So out the door we went to the local park and everything was fine and he was doing awesome until that pesky squirrle got the best of his attention on me and his training and welp I never tried to stay upright so hard in my life as he was dragging me down a steep hill. My life, my after life and my future live's all flashed befor my eyes.
Thankfully the squirrle finally found a treat to climb up so that my little ski party could end.
After I got his attention I went back home and never walked without a good traction shoe again. But none the less it was a good training session for me. I mean I learned a LOT that day.
I miss my big boy. R.I.P Big Bear. I love and still miss you every day.
Oh he did find his forever home with a cop friend of mine and worked proudly for 7 years before he retired.
@@ChevysVixen bbb
That happened to me but I was on my face on a muddy hill lol :(
@@no_peace I can imagine that, you probably looked like him 😂ruclips.net/video/Txn7vspEqcs/видео.html
Once I was sitting outside a Café, just telling people how well behaved this dog and breed is. Showing off the good old "feeding treats from my mouth " trick. Not 2 minutes later he ripped me from the chair to the ground and almost dragging me behind because a cat was running by 🤣 People were in tears and I had bruises.
this just happened to me last week. My butt STILL hurts...
I really like how we're seeing more of Bree in this series. She's doing an amazing job recording and making these videos. This is the best series so far. George is a superstar, I'm so happy you guys rescued him from the shelter ❤️
You guys seem so close to breaking the “ Two Dog Rule.” It would be so cool if a friend or neighbor adopted George so that you guys could see how he progresses down the road. I am really enjoying this series!
That's what I hope too. That they are able to still visit George etc.
What is the 'two dog rule'??
@@elenacodanunziante7375 Zak has a personal "two dog rule, which means he only wants to own two dogs at a time
@@ashley9639 ah ok thank you
@@ashley9639 wow I wonder why? I have five dogs... lol I did get them as puppies and then trained them. Once I was confident in their training I got another puppy.
I'm actually jumping out of my chair watching George attempt to catch frisbees in sequence - what an amazing pup! (I'm also in tears!) 😭😭😭😭💖💖💖💖
PS - Please adopt him Bree and Zak - and change his name to "Gravity" 😍
@@Elladepass doesn't gravity bring you down when you are up? I don't think you want to name something that
@@san-ju6504 exactly this! Maybe I've just had bad luck, but I'd love to know where to get Frisbee that are safe and don't have too deep a lip
I find that my dog gets very excited after a rain. As a human, I know it smells different. I can only imagine what it's like for dogs who have a higher sense of smell!
At this point I really want to see Zak's supply of treats and toys considering he gets a bark box like every other day
Honestly I buy my border collie a new toy or 3 weekly. I like the toys that can't be bought at a store. Helps differentiate between other toys easily
I want to see all of his gear lol
He could of bought a Pure Gold pitbull for the price of the treats lol
Love this series and LOVE George!
I want to see his shoe collection
I just love this series and Zak’s training style. He celebrates every accomplishment, no matter how small.
Glad George and Inertia are good friends.
I love how Bree has been jumping in at the end, kinda like a debrief. Well done guys!
I think bow is becoming George’s signature trick! Every episode he seems to offer that trick and it is so adorable, but also I cannot believe how fast he is learning loads of other commands too.
I'm watching this video with my dog. Everytime you say "YES" my dog look at me waiting for her treat 😂
😂😂😂
Woops. Maybe headphones for the dog might be a good investment. 😂 😂 😂
@@ChevysVixen 🤣
With every episode, you make it harder not to get my hopes up that you kept this guy! Loving this series
Love the way you said “our dogs are not machines.” Yes, they aren’t machines. Sometimes people forget that the dog has a personality of its own. They aren’t misbehaving but actually paying attention to the environment around them. I really like how George pulls. After Moira and George, I think Zak is getting ready for a malamute next 🤣🤣🤣
I am a viewer and subscriber from the Philippines. Where I come from dogs like George are widely accepted by a lot of people that understand the breed, some of them are even seen as status symbols. But at the same time, they are also greatly feared by the general public for it's reputation as an aggressive dog that "locks jaw." The sad thing is that as a kid I was also taught that mentality by the people around me, that these types of dogs should be feared and avoided. Now that I understand the world better as an adult I now know that these dogs that I've grown to fear are such beautiful and loving creatures and that it actually just depends on how people handle them. I'd like to thank you Zak for opening the public's eye on dogs like George, your work is greatly appreciated. I hope George finds his forever home where he'll be happy and healthy for the rest of his days. I am loving this series so much! Never a dull moment with George. Keep up the good work!
I could watch that short clip of George air-pawing Inertia over and over! So adorableeee.
You, Bree and George have a special connection. It's more than a soft spot in your hearts for him - you truly love George. Inertia enjoys him too. Seems he is the perfect addition to your family. Episode 4 you said you have a 2-dog rule; I don't mean to be indelicate but your sweet furbaby Indy is 15 - you might not have her much longer. So if George is the perfect dog for your family, go ahead and adopt him. Best wishes. And thanks for another great training video.
You can totally tell because George frequently looks at Bree to check in (basically every time he looks at the camera he's checking on her). So heartwarming.
I agree as well. We had 2 dogs at one point, 3 years in age apart. When the elder of the 2 passed away we planned on getting another puppy right away, to continue being a 2 dog house and give our dog companionship. Sadly our second dog passed just 1 year after the first, her heart failed so its likely she passed if a broken heart. She never got to meet our new pup. We have changed our plans on being a 2DH and will probably only keep the 1 for the time. Perhaps when we are passed the current puppy stage we will get another and be a 2DH again.
You have to keep him. He’s your spirit animal
He adores yall please please 🙏keep him
I love how much time and effort Zak is putting into George. I hope this inspires some dog trainers to foster some dogs and give them a chance to a home by training them.
I'm sure he's already found the perfect forever home but I totally want George!!
George is such a lucky boy to have been taken out of the shelter by Zak. A fabulous series so far ! 😊
Oh how AMAZING to see George learning the frisbee trick! I can't believe it has only been 6 days-WOW! He is so stinking smart and you both are truly dedicated to seeing him become better and better each passing day.All I can say is this is a wonderful series to see George go from being in a kenne to learning how to enjoy life! KUDOS to yu both!
Hi Zack, your wife has the right idea, KEEP GEORGE, I would be extremely concerned about George’s ability too become overly stimulated with another person you know they would not continue with the individual time and training George seems to need and enjoy. I believe it would be in Georges’s best interest if you kept him. Keep up the good work.
Probably every dog would be better off living with Zak, but sadly he is only one person.
I completely agree with you. He can be a good rehabilitation dog and helper when zak takes other dogs to train. Cesar Milan has also his pit Junior and before Daddy 🥺....these dogs are amazing companions and assistants with rehabilitation. Yes George could stay a good dog if he gets adopted but what is the potential here if he stays with Zak? Don't let him go please ❤️🔥
I also hope he keeps George. I think they're meant to be together. I don't say that lightly as I know Zack can't possibly keep every dog he trains.
@@northwestgirl930 Nope.. not my dog he needs balanced training.. i tried all of zak's methods but it only made his anxiety worse and he only did things for treats as soon as i switched to balanced training it was a complete change in him and hes doing great now
@@thenanagamer7342 yeah, they’re meant to be together. Its even in the dogs name!
I loooove the George videos. He has so much hidden potential and reminds me a lot of my own rescue dog. I’d love to see a more detailed video of how you introduced him to Indy and Inertia. I’ve been thinking of fostering and it would be great to learn how to manage those interactions when you don’t know a dog’s complete personality
With inertia ( I didn’t see indie) he desensitized him to the muzzle then had Inertia off leash and George on leash till he knew they were going to be good then let them both off leash with the muzzle still now there best friends indie I don’t know
You are sooooo good with him haha. It's great to watch. The combination of a really strong trainer and a really smart and motivated dog is something to behold.
You are the best dog trainer lm sure George is having a blast
He’s so cute when he is trotting with his ears back. What a good looking dog!
I know that you can’t keep George, but I wish with all my heart you would!! My heart breaks just thinking / knowing he will not be with you in the end, 💔
Thank you for showing George to the world because he is such an amazing ambassador for pit bulls 💕. He’s soooo smart it’s so cool to watch his training!
When you randomly check youtube and see that Zak uploaded a video 1 second ago o.o
Love your channel and your videos. As a pitbull lover and long-time defender of the breed thank you so much for featuring these amazing dogs. The only thing that might be me nitpicking is to please be careful with how you use pitbull in the title. We have had to fight so hard against the public negatively lots of people might see the title and nothing else. A better title might have been "How to train a dog not to play rough with my dog" Again please know I think what you are doing is amazing and I feel like these videos are game-changers when it comes to the dog world. This is just a little tip from someone who been in the pittie world for 20 years.
I thought that as well. The tittle screams clickbait and reinforces negative stereotypes of these amazing animals. It kinda goes against what the whole series is trying to do.
I'm hoping the clickbait title draws people in and helps destroy the stereotype, since the 'incident' is pretty early in the video and it's clear George is all play and quickly responsive to correction.
The intros though in every series get better and better! 🙂👍
Isn’t it the same in all the episodes?🤔
@@jordanoliveto5863 but I gets better in every new *series* not episode
@@inayakhanmarwat3343 oh okay
Keep him!! He'd be a perfect staple on the channel to show people that other breeds, not just the stereotypical "smart" breeds like border collies, can reach the level of training of your other dogs❤️❤️❤️
He is not a pitbull.. this is a mixed breed bully if people stopped spreading misinformation then the real american pitbull terrier would not have a bad rap.. also zak ruined my dog.. i followed his technics and training videos only to end up with a dog who only wanted treats for everything and refused to listen otherwise until i switched to balanced training!
Also it took zak way to long to train inertia and it was honestly a embarrassment.. hes a pretty bad dog trainer
@@jaynecrafter2684 The rule I live by: if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all.
Lets be real, zak would never own a pitbull. He likes people to WANT to pet his dogs and think they’re sweet not be scared of them. Thats why he gets border collies.....even the tittle is clickbait because he wants to use the bad rep pits get for his advantage
@@Silenced-mi2hr He isn't a good dog trainer and it shouldn't be hidden away.. his dog was reactive to others and pulled on the leash when i was able to teach the no pulling with a puppy in five minutes by using pressure and release
My notifications worked. So excited to see George. THIS has been our favorite SERIES to date!
He's made so much progress! His impulse control is phenomenal❤
Love the reality videos. Really want to see more videos on greeting visitors like the one with Inertia on Halloween but MORE in depth. Watch every single video you make!
why not teach inertia how to be the camerawoman
imagine her just trying so hard to hold the camera lol
YESSS! He could put a harness on her with a camera and teach her almost herding commands to get different angles
George❤️ best series so far!
I really really hope his new owner is going keep up the frisbee training he is such a talent could see him in competitions in the future 🥰🐕
To me in this series of training videos you have done an amazing job showing people a new side of the pitbull breed of dogs that most don't ever even think about because there is so much negative stigma attached to these dogs and what a wonderful truth to discover that unless you have owned and loved these dogs your only knowledge is what the media {for the most part } portrays.also I am absolutely sure everyone watching wants to see the ending where you decide to keep this dog George as I believe deserves you.
I taught my greyhound to leave things like that too, if I don’t give it to him he knows that he can’t have it, I’m currently teaching him to shake paws, and he’s doing well for an ex racer
I've rewatched this series like 3 times and am still feeling the same happin3sss and still cryingggg😭😭😭😭😭😭❤❤❤❤
I love when you call yourself out, like when you were practicing "heel"! It really humanizes the training process and lets us all see that is not all about perfection, it's about keeping going and improving incrementally.🐶💚
It must be refreshing and nostalgic to train George the Frisby tricks given your love for it in competition years ago. How about you go compete one last time using George lol!!!
This has by far been my favorite series!
You've done tremendous work with George, Zak!
You've given him a second chance at life that most couldn't or wouldn't do.
My American bullies are much more challenging like George but I have a 4yr old bullmastiff that I've been trick training and I would love to incorporate more as he's so eager to learn and catches on within minutes! These are the tricks he knows so far and he can also read hand signals for them all aswell: sit, stay, down, up, paw, high paw, beg, sit pretty, roll over, hurt paw, tappy paws (looks like he's dancing),army crawl, speak, whisper, he can say I love you, bow, hug, smile, spin, dive(in water), jimping through hoops and there's a couple others I'm sure I'm forgetting but if you have any suggestions he's always looking for somthing more challenging!
I think you should keep him. Im 60yrs old and out of all the different breeds Ive had throughout my life my last 3 pitbulls have been my favorite by far….. hands down.
George is so amazing at frisbee! 6 days and he's already nailing it! Can't even imagine how fluid he's looking now! 🤎🤍
I train/foster rescue dogs that have extreme issues. Last chance dogs. Also a fellow border collie fanatic! I just wanted to leave a message to say I've been watching your channel for around 9ish years now. I have consistently recommended your channel for years as one of the best resources for accessible, positive training. To see both of your journeys with all the dogs has been so heart warming. I love that you're doing these series rescuing more difficult cases. I think it's so sad as I have ended up with some of the best dogs from the most extreme ("apparent hopeless") cases. Thank you for doing so much to push positive reinforcement training and being a pillar for our community!
I really wanted this video to be about "What to do when your dog gets too rough". I have this problem with my 6 month old puppy being too aggressive playing with her 2 yr old brother. This was a good training video, just not really about this subject.
The segment on that subject was very thorough but brief. See 3:18- 3:55. It was subtly done, just as it should be at home. Consistency is key.
Every time Zak and Bree maintain that they aren't adopting George my heart sinks a little...
This is a statement of the obvious. Successful dog training is hard work. Your must be attentive, analytical, creative and energetic. Zak is very impressive and I'm glad Pit Bull George entered his orbit.
I just freaking love this series!
Same!
As a man, that doesn’t watch sappy chick flicks. The is the greatest love story I have watched.
Wow! George is one smart cookie!! And so handsome. What a love!!
I just got a puppy from a rescue. He is a Kelpie and crazy, adorable and so smart. Following your advice and I am blown away at how well things are working...even if there is still so much to do
It's so refreshing you got a pitbull Zak ,,,, massive respect 👏🙌👌 . Love your videos mate
I found myself clapping for George when he was catching the Frisbees (not the first time). He doing great on his not pulling (for a pit) He so exciting to watch! Thanks Zac and Bree.
When you say for a pit: that's where I don't agree with you, I believe any dog has the potential to do anything. It all depends on the owner/foster parent/other of the dog. (Or other animal)
@@Silenced-mi2hr I agree any dog/animal has potential. (To pull or run ect.) and to learn anything. I think you perhaps misinterpreted what I meant, I was speaking of in my 20 years of experience of raising rescued and/or fostering & training pitbull type (if not trained when they are young) that a lot of them do have the tendency to pull in the beginning. Mainly because the are excited and want to smell, run and explore anything and everything. So do other types of dogs shepherds and boxers for example. They are big dogs strong and powerful so in watching Zak when George is pulling It is all so familiar to me. I know Zak is and has worked on this. I was just speaking from my personal experience with Pits (in particular). However every dog I have fostered and rehomed they all were well trained not to to pull but for some of them it wasn't easy getting them there. They are a very intelligent breed and really want to please their people/family. I already see that Zak and George are working very well on the pulling. I Hope this clears things up Blessing to you.
I just adopted a 5 yr old pitbull and just love him. I do need to train him more so everything does not become a struggle for domiance. He is such a lover!!
"It's OK, I'm vaccinated!" I'll have to remember that line. It'll come in handy in ALL KINDS of interesting situations.
It's so good to see how their excitement hit the roof working together. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I have a four dog rule. It’s not easy, they are all consuming. My Australian Shepherd/German Shepherd mix is the one who plays too rough. I really enjoy this new series, Zak, adopting an untrained dog, possibly abused/neglected dog, from the shelter and working with it/showing it love and a good life.
Well done George! Well done Bree! Well done Zak!
This series is a life saver, my gf and I are going to pick up George's twin (basically) tomorrow with a very similar story. Staffy the same size as George, minimal contact in a refuge for 7 months, same brindle coat and just as loving
Zak I’ve been watching this series and I love what your doing with George, he’s amazing!! I had a pit bull just like him, he got many ribbons for obedience and agility, he’s no longer with us, I miss him very much. Also I love your humour it makes me laugh. Awesome husband and Wife team! ❤️
I just started watching your channel. I've been using your tips on my bully and it has work. Im amazed . Cant wait to buy a Frisbee and try to teach. Havent seen your other video playlist. But would love to see viedos on dog stack for shows.
Best series to date! Nice work George!
I’m loving this series and loving George! I get so excited when he catches the frisbees!!!!
We have an American Bully and an American Pitbull Terrier. It’s fantastic how easy it is to step between them when they get too rough. Just a nice firm “Too Real” and a step forward. They are some smart pups.
Love seeing that frisbee progression.
I am really enjoying this training series, Zak and Bree you guys are amazing ! Your enthusiasm and appreciation for George is heartwarming and as a person who loves pit bulls you have my full attention . Thank you for picking and training George , I watch him with you and can see he really loves your attention and training .
Just when I think I’ve watched my favorite George video, you drop another amazing video! Watching you train George makes me smile. As a fellow dog trainer, I agree!! He is a dog trainer’s dream! I love seeing the tiny progression he has each video and I love watching him work for toys!! And his ears!! Oh my gosh I just love watching his ears and tongue flap as he prances!! 😃😃 Awesome work Zak!!! I love this series so much!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰
I watch your videos to help train my crazy husky puppy. Thank you so much for your hard work
Love this series your doing amazing with George keep it up 👍🏼
I have a female Pitbull/terrier - just taught her sit pretty....she's such a big dog but it's so dang cute!
Zak, you have got loads of patience and it shows when dealing with George. As we all know there are people out there who’s patience vault is lacking and George being placed in the wrong hands could possibly result in major correction being used on him. I am very happy that Zak has taken on this boy and will inevitably end up with people or a person who just can’t stop training him. This dog is gonna be amazing. I would love to see what he’d be like as a dock diving dog. He’s got the power, the body type (slick) and the desire to please. Wow, this series is coming to an end soon and lets all put ours prayers together and send out to the universe, the perfect match for George. Wherever he ends up, and with whomever , this dog has nothing but greatness ahead of him. Thanks to you Zak and Bree, along with Inertia and Indy , George is surrounded by good energy.
I'm really enjoying cheering George on
Great work on keeping your energy up all these years. Keep up the good work
That dog is so sweet🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶
🤪🤪🤪🤪
Walking and filming 2 dogs!👍🏻💕🐶😊 Another great, informative video! Thanks, Zac!
One in a million. George is incredible!
I love this series so much, it has been my favourite by far!
I would love to see Zak work with a small breed dog because they have many more challenges, especially a terrier mix. They're high prey drive, but they have small stomachs and attention spans that make them uniquely difficult to train. Especially potty training- it would be amazing to watch a transformation to prove that not all small dogs are snippy, whiny monsters 😁
Agreed!I just adopted a 2 yr old terrier chihuahua mix and he is more energy than I thought! Fortunately he's not a barker doesn't have separation anxiety...only issues I have are leash pulling and uber hyper when he sees me😅 my poor legs are covered in bruises when he jumps on me.
I seem to remember him saying the next dog would be a smaller one? But I could have been misunderstanding him.
My pitbull is so careful and almost timid when it comes to other dogs. It's usually the small dogs that are aggressive to him and him backing away. His name is Ajax he's a sweetheart even though he looks like a killer and you can see him at the picture on the left and our channel.
One day We I'll miss George 🥺
if you look at the first video and on episode 6 his has a strong muscular build and on episode 1 he had a weaker look I love it
That’s really good work!!!! It gives me a little hope for my potty mix. She’s a handful, but I’m not giving up. Just gonna take more patience to get her on the same page.
I feel in love with George the last day. I know with love and good training he'd be an awesome dog to have.
If Zak adopts George, George will become George George haha
YES
Lol yeah
George is a special dog I think you guys would be the perfect home for him
One observation for the sitting with distance. He seems to recognize the signal better when your feet are together, also leaning forward seems to make a difference for him.
OHMYGOD I JUST REALIZED BREE WAS WEARING A SWEATER WITH "MY TEARS RICOCHET" ON IT. WE LOVE A SWIFTIE!!!
Love this series! Inspiring to high energy breeds everywhere! 👍❤️
he is sooo smart i love him , We want you to keep him he is so cute
Watching this series for the first time starting from the beginning. I just adopted a rescue Pitbull (thought I was getting a lab mix but surprise, surprise a Pitbull stepped out of the transport van..). Thank you, thank you for this video....I'm getting so much out watching George and Zak in action. Not only with training tips, but also helps me to embrace the Pitbull who is now in my family. This series is better than any TV series - great entertainment as well as instructive. I hope Zak an Bree decide to keep George - but I'm guessing they don't.
Love these videos so much keep on making them 👍🏼😃
George is so good because if you Zak. And also he is a great boy. ❤️ this. Thank you
