So many little dogs are allowed to get away with murder. Just because they are small they are not trained or taken seriously. It is not fun for a dog to live an unbalanced life, big or small. I breed small breed miniature and toy Australian Shepherds and try to caution my puppy adopters on just this subject. The little dogs need the same rules and training and mental and physical stimulation as the big ones!
basically it's the owners. Rude dogs comes in all sizes because of them
This reminds me of my moms Yorkie soooo much! When my grandfather was alive, we used to visit him in Russia every winter. He ran a sheep and rabbit farm and had a bunch (when I say a bunch, I mean more than 10) of those huuuuuge Caucasian Shepherds - and I'm sure everyone who knows dogs, knows about these Russian dogs. However, my moms 4 pound Yorkie ''Qi'' was spreading terror and fear amongst them, every single year. Every single one of my grandfathers dogs was afraid of my moms 4 pound Yorkie! Suuuper hilarious to see! It's like, one day you hear about them destroying a whole pack of wholes, then the other day you see those same dogs running away in fear from a tiny, mad Yorkie! Wish I had filmed it back then...
yea well surprise, they don't kill babies like pit bulls.
absolutely. A lot of people think they can get away with their dog being needlesly agressive or defensive because they can't "seriously" injure anyone (which is another misconception, just ask my fucked up hand), but it isn't only about other people or dogs. I have a lab mixed with some kind of giant dog and he's been attacked by smaller dogs before and he was fine, got them off of him and that was that, but if my dog was just the slightest bit more reactive, he could have inadvertently really hurt the smaller dogs, even if his reaction would have been completely justified. A small dog might not hurt a bigger dog, but that lil thing is gonna GET hurt if it pulls up to the wrong dog with the wrong attitude.
So lucky with our Chihuahua she’s naturally trained it’s bizarre how good she is.
He looks quite insecure once he realizes he actually has to stay with and interact with the other dogs. Became his owner's shadow - 😂 wasn't so tough when the leash wasn't separating him from everyone else.
I found it funny when Joel let go of the lead. The dog was ferocious on the lead, but didn't know what to do when it got what it wanted - the opportunity attack Prince - and Joel knew that would be the case. Good boy, Prince.
Glad you picked up on that
This little dog is exactly like the guy at the bar who runs his mouth to a big dude, then yells "hold me back, guys, hold me back!" at his friends. He's all cocky and bold when his buddies are playing along, but if they just stood there and watched, he'd either have to back down or get clobbered :D
Scrappy doo
Prince is a proffesional he doesn’t take little dude seriously
that little thing going after Prince was actually hilarious. Prince was just like dude chill and the other dog was like uhh yea nevermind about that whole i want to dominate thing
The sound you made when the small dog lifted his legs before getting in the water made me chuckle 😂
It's a bird... It's a plane...
@@BT-ts4pb no wait! It’s super dog!!!
My cairn terrier would do this every time he was held like that. he absolutely has some terrier in him and i bet its cairn. He only liked being held head over your shoulder like a baby.

😂 that small dog has too much confidencs😂
That’s enough doodles you guys are nuts 😂
Loved seeing Prince walking around with your sock ! A great dog, who obviously loves Joel.
Prince: "dad. dad. I found your sock, dad. dad. daaaaad. you lost your sock, dad. I found it. daaaad" :D
Good boy Prince
Small Dog: 'Yap Yap'. Prince: 'Shut up, already. Damn'.
Prince jus like, what’s wrong with all the dogs that come over
This was like my dog before I found your channel 😭. It’s low key hilarious seeing tiny dogs being corrected 😹
I really like this video. We just got a F chihuahua mix puppy 6 months old. Very similar behavior and experience. I get a lot of stares when I correct her. I'm convinced small dog owners think this behavior is perfectly normal. Not in my house.
I see the little guy trying hard to get away, and even asking for help from the owner, whilst nervously trying to avoid the pushy bigger dogs. He’s little and probably feels vulnerable. Continuously asking for help from his owner.
My aunt had a Chihuahua Boston Terrier mix, rescued from an abusive house. She didn’t have the time to train him, so he was an absolute hellion. I dog sat him a few times, over a weekend or during a summer break, and he would start out exactly like this little guy. I could reverse some of it after a week of diligent training, but any time less than that was pure torture. It got way worse as he got older, as he was a pain to walk and couldn’t get out his energy with his family. Then I’d watch him and we’d be back at square one. Watching your videos has me wondering if I could have changed him, if I adopted him full time. I still think about him and miss him, even if he was a little asshole that I only saw twice a year. Unfortunately, he had to be put down. Training like this would have probably saved his life.
Lil rescue: "RAAAAAARRRR!" "....." Prince: "for real?"
This looks and mostly acts like my mother's dog (hers is much worse though, truly). Dog park was the best thing we ever did for him. We did the small/medium park first but he was to much for those dog so we put him in with the big dogs and he learned real quick how to act. We stay close and help him when he gets overwhelmed because the small guy is a target at times. We have had more success with obedience since we started going to the park
I needed this video! My 1.5 Yorkie is exactly like this. Walking her is a nightmare.
I'd say they lack structure rules and boundaries at home. My dog was the same.he needed a calm and fair boss.not a parent! Was difficult for me at first. Defenitly agree with dog contact under safe conditions.
My ex's golden used to pull a lot like this dog. I kid you not, I fixed it in one walk. All I did is took the dog around the block, and every time it pulled, I stopped. We didn't even get to the backside of the block before the problem was solved. Joel's videos about how to turn and pull the dog back before even going out and then giving a little collar tug probably work better than what I did, but the point is that these issues can be solved pretty quickly. Now this dog also had the dog reactivity and that takes more time through desensitization.
I stopp as well when my dog pulls.it drives you nuts at first but it really works. I emphasise his right behaviour by praising him and when he stops when he walks in front on a loose leash and stops when I stop he gets praise and treats. I tried different things but the stopping and waiting method was the best for my sanity and stress level. :-)
Mine too.
Beckman, your tips helped my 18 month old akita stop pulling like magic!! Unbelievable! Keep up the awesome work!
Omg his cute reaction with throwing those little front legs up😆
This channel has the most well explained content I could ever find on the internet, actually impressive how you still leave this it's 100% free to help us dog owners. Joel, I follow all the steps you suggest for dog/leash reactivity with my 1y old pup. It works perfectly and he does really well when we are in a park, or next to the dog park behind the fenced area (he can smell the dogs and play but I don't go inside cuz of the environment). Anyways, it never works during walks around the neighborhood... he sees a dog, fixate his eyes on the dog that's coming up the street, lays down, and when the dog gets close he lunges and bark (more like a "give me attention" bark) and I can't never get his attention no matter how many pops I give him. Is this behavior normal? Being ok with dogs at the dog park or when they are close, but being a jerk when dogs are walking by on the other side of street? Thanks for the awesome work! It's been helping a lot!!
The dog is used to playing as a reward after not reacting so the leash frustration when on a walk is going to be more amplified because he doesn’t get to play with every dog he sees. Counterconditioning his response to dogs through marker training and “engage disengage” games from a distance will be the best course of action given you have the time and consistency to properly use this method and work at the dogs pace. This will change the dogs state of mind to be calm when acknowledging dogs as the goal is to reward calm behavior and the ability to engage with you despite a distracting dog. If this doesn’t work for you, it’s not the method, it’s the failure to properly use it. That being said, an easier route would be correcting the dog right as he’s about to fixate and if it doesn’t work, the dog is too over threshold and you must manage the situation and work from farther back. Seems to me that corrections aren’t working very well for you currently which means the best course would be to countercondition since the dogs response isn’t being changed by leash corrections. Leash corrections also take a while to truly change the dogs state of mind, as it more so will suppress the behavior without teaching an alternate one. That being said, it is your choice which route you want to take and if done properly both routes will achieve similar results, it’s just that they’re vastly different processes that work on the dogs mind in opposite ways. But if you’re keen on keeping up the corrections, you can achieve the desired behavior, although counterconditiong in the long run will result in a calmer dog who is able to think for itself when presented with an opportunity, and the dog will choose to engage with you without you having to correct the dog. In my opinion, that is more rewarding to put in the extra time to have a dog trained this way, but then again, if you don’t feel you have the time or ability to do so, Beckham will present you with the next best option as he does great work with his dogs although I don’t use his methods. Best of luck!
@@harrymolloy823 thnxs for this input, much appreciated 👍
Try putting him into a sit. Even if you have to do a butt touch to do so. Make him wait while they walk past, tell him leave it and pop if he tries to break the sit, if that dog chooses to approach, fine, if not then tough he’ll have to sit and watch it go by. Mine used to pull me ect now he knows, he usually automatically goes into a sit he sees a dog walk approach. But there’s no pulling no lunging and no barking.
That first scene was exactly what happened all time when I took my balanced well trained Doberman service dog to Walmart.
Prince: “hey everrrrrryyyyonnnneee!!! I got my Dad’s sock!!” 😂
This is the same way my girl used to be when we got her. She's a big, black labradane and was VERY reactive. She would put on a big show of growling and snarling and rearing up- (didn't pull me but pretended to be) and we thought she was dangerous. Eventually we had to go to a vet for a checkup and she was carrying on, and a lil fluffy teddy bear just kinda.... yapped at her and my big scary attack dog got embarrassed and sat behind me.
This reminds me of my moms Yorkie soooo much! When my grandfather was alive, we used to visit him in Russia every winter.

you are living my dream. good dogs everywhere!
I agree, Doodles ARE too much. 🤣
Wish I had a place like this to take my rescue Bichon to. He's not bold like this one, but he is VERY fear aggressive and probably has never played with other dogs. I've managed to walk him close to other dogs, but he flips out out of the blue and people avoid us like the plague. I keep watching this channel and am grateful for every little thing i learn.
My flips out when he sees most other dogs too. Not sure it's fear aggressive think it's insecurity and being tethered ro a leash.however i would never risk letting him be attact by a strange dog.so he has to deal with it. At least i get him out his barking and lunging fits quickly now. I read his body language and get the most space we can to other dogs.so he learns that I'm no lunetic risk who is risking our life. and as soon as he perks his ears up and watches the other dog I correct him. I'm working on a course right now were I explain how to deal with such behaviours.
Seeing this little terrier (or whatever he is) walking with his owners AND other dogs together as a pack, MOVING, he seems to have had the best time in his life... No animal should be alone without mates from his world, we humans cannot substitute for their species.
Yeah baby.. yeah, baby teach that dog who is the boss
Doodles are nuts🤣
8:52 look at him scratching himself😂
Prince stealing your sock is absolutely hilarious!
the front legs thing when he was put into water immediately tells me that he’s got westie in him lmao
Thanks for showing a little dog. Please show us more of this little guy. He's a lot like my Min Pin.
I couldn't believe this little guy, glad you got to see him, as well as all theses people watching, now they will be able help their dog 🐶 because of you!!!!!!❤️
Also I like the new thumbnail designs
Super Awesome !! Saw exactly what my 1 dog does and how it needs to be addressed. Thank you for the video......helps me feel justified with what I am trying to do. These people are lucky that they came to you. You will help their dog and also help them. Keep up the great videos. If you are able to please post more multiple small dog videos, as they have their own issues because of size.
Little dog was like shiiiiit!!!
Like when Joel says Roll up to other dogs
This just happened to me with my Husky. On our morning walk, we encountered TWO Pugles on the loose (escaped their yard and no owner in sight). I tried to block my dog and act big and scary to shoo them away. But nope, they were focused on my dog and charged at him! I could only kick two little dogs away for so long before my dog PINNED one on it’s back and wouldn’t release his bite. I thought my dog was going to kill this thing as it cruel out in agony. It seemed like forever, but my dog finally released his grip and I pulled him off. Both little dogs ran away together. I didn’t see any blood from the bite, but idk if he punctured that little dog. I have no idea where they came from
I keep getting mad because I’m thinking about what you said regarding not wanting your dog to “rehearse a bite.” This was the 4th time we’d been attacked by unsecured dogs in the 3months that I’ve owned my dog. It’s changing him 😡
@@Anonymous-im9ob It happens alot in public dog parks. That's why many dogs stop enjoying other dogs, rude and no manners.
@@vikingdogmanship which is why we don’t go to public dog parks. What’s sad is that this happened right on my street, two doors down from my house.
Maybe carry a stun gun. Sorry you have to experience that. Little dogs always stir up the big dog then the big dog gets blamed for defending themselves.
@@Anonymous-im9ob It sucks! I hope they learned from your dogs response. People can be jerks too. I've seen grown men calling young puppies, and when the puppy run towards them thinking they are nice they scare the puppy like it supphose to know it was a joke. It Infuriates me. Offcourse that most likely will give trust issues and become a so called "problem" dog
I have a feeling that fence door gets washed A LOT😂
"That's enough doodles. You guys are nuts!" Hahahahaha!
Board my Jack Russell about 9 to 12 days a month. Best thing for her. And she really loves it.
THANK YOU 🙏🏼 for showing this!
Prince stole the sock.
Cheers Joel. Great video 👍
Priceless video!
Would love to see more vids with this little guy!
This video helped so much with my feisty chihuahua.
Prince is like "Where did that weird bark come from? (looks down) oh that's where.
I think I have his cousin. The vocals on that pup!
Reminds me of the kid in school who wants to fight the really big guys
Prince was looking like damn he took the sock back 😆
Wow those are the only dogs he's ever been with Wow 🦴 🐾🐾
Prince at the beginning had that “what the f is this!?” Reaction/step back When the little guy runs up on him😂 I love it, such a well behaved boy you have, I foster dogs and my oldest boy Husky/pit mix is so gentle with dogs especially pups and knows when to teach these fosters how to play and how to behave in the house! Prince is so great, love how he’s trying to get the little guy to interact with him! PS: every time I’ve taught a pup how to swim at a really young age they do what he did getting in the water! My English bulldog at 9 weeks and my full bread American staffy at 8 weeks.. hold them by the belly and lower them over the half filled bath tub and once you’re about 5-8 inches away from the water they lift all there paws up then start doggy paddling like a little energizer bunny and they go zoomin around the tub! Learned it from a trainer a while ago! It’s adorable
Doodles ARE nuts.
Puppy power ! Let me have him, Uncle Scooby.
Small/tiny dog insecurity and attempted dominance is a real problem area - I'd love to see more videos with clients like this. My chi is pretty good for the most part, but ends up being a bit jerky and v overwhelmed with dogs bigger than her (so nearly everyone). They generally are friendly but "too much", so she'll snarl and chase them away from her immediate area (1-2m radius). Idk what to do because in a way I don't mind, because she's small and could get hurt by a careless dog, but I also don't want her to be an asshole and I want her to actually enjoy meeting other dogs (she fucking loves other chis).
My 7 month old female Maltese is bold too. She doesn’t bark at other dogs and she is never mean to them either. She has started playing more rough where she puts her paw on a dog, then runs away(so they’ll chase her). I don’t like her being comfortable putting her paws on other dogs so I stop that. I socialized her since 4 months and she wants to play with most dogs she meets. Not every dog wants to play with her though. My puppy was playing too much with another small dog that didn’t want to play. The dog barked at my puppy and the owner apologized. I told the owner their dog is setting boundaries for my puppy. I leashed her after that and had her sit next to me.
The benefit of being around other dogs is so valuable! One of the best things we did for our hyper Boston Terrier (aka Boston Terrorist) pup was to send him to doggie daycare. Just a couple days a week works wonders. 😊
This video had me laughing hard... xD
I rescued a challenging dog from the heart of Baltimore City. She is doing amazing thanks to you.. just know you are saving the lives of many dogs who otherwise might not be giving a chance . I truly want to become a trainer to help rescues with challenging dogs. I am a nurse full time but have a mission to help dogs. She is a big pit mix with leash reactivity but is amazing now. Do you have a course for people wanting to become trainers?
Main thing I noticed is that he does not want any of the dogs to sniff him. He sits down and blocks. He sniffs them and refuses them the same.
ha ha Prince got your sock!!!
hahaha funny dog go zooooooooooooommmmmm
Love your dogs, especially prince
That dog had no desire to dominate anyone as far as I could see. Feisty read young and inquisitive and lively. Uncertain, bit nervous, huge dollop of fascination, excitement and, before getting to meet, frustration. Never had the opportunity to learn - runs up - then sits down because he's unsure - backs off at the first opportunity. Returns to owners when too much. Those guys could have just gone on a walk with a good mix of other dogs. Aside from running up to the wrong dog through lack of experience which you don't want, that dog did nothing to warrant a canine correction. Not for me.
That's enough doodles!
One of my boy Chihuahuas tried "being the big dog" and he growled at a male pitbull. Did not go well. The pit picked up my dog and shook him from side to side causing several puncture wounds in his chest and one hell of an emergency vet bill. I don't ever want stuff like that to happen so I am here watching every video of yours I can find because I don't like the types of trainers that are softer. Your style resonates with me.
I have a Jack Russell Terrier, had her for 15 years, she's great, very docile, very nice, and she knows how to control herself. Everyone I've met that ever Interracted with one always goes "wow, your Jack Russell is so calm, aren't they usually supposed to be very energic and uncontrollable?" And while yes, she's both very smart and nice, it's all because I was very strict with her since she was a puppy. Back then she was your standard Jack-Russell, she wanted to play 24/24, would bark at all-time for no reasons, and would chew anything she'd find out of boredom. It took a long ass time to address theses issues but it did work-out. I had to correct her behavior whenever she was doing something wrong, and sometimes peoples would find me a bit hard on her. Because peoples always want to overlook wrongdoings as long as it comes from something cute like a dog or a small-child. They never realize that said dog/child will one day grow up adult, and by then it might be too late to correct bad habits. Anyways, it took a long time, it was basically a constant thing, I even had to teach her a "signal" for whenever she would go too-far, I'd snap my fingers as a warning, And nowaday she's great, still as playful just not as overbearing, she absolutely loves to go on walk but doesn't pull on her leash, she's very social but isn't afraid of standing her ground if a dog is annoying her. Took some time and constant efforts but now she's absolutely great, I'm very proud of her.
I loved this feisty little dog! But leash correction training will make him even better.
This is my shelter dog Mia. She is only 25 pounds but solid muscle and a completely tense jerk.most of the time. We've made a ton of progress on the leash, but her reactivity to other dogs is still a 9 out of 10 most times.
This little dog is just like my 7 month old Yorker mix. I am at wits end with my little guy
Looks like a Shiba mixed with a terrier, so no fear.
big dogs always have a fascination with little dogs...always happens to my little dog.
That is LITERALLY my Schnoodle! Strong agressive little tike- idk what to do about it - its exhausting 😢
Are you sure he wasn’t a street dog? He reads the other dogs very well.
Haha it’s always the LITTLES😂😂
@Libreria Belvedere I am kidding.
Dang I wish y'all were closer. I've got 2 puppies and an overwhelmed tiny; and a disability of my own. 😂
Can you please show how you addressed the leash reactivity with this small dog. I find my Maltese’s shitzu does the same but I am struggling with the leash reactivity and also being reactive to other dogs when i am driving. I take him to the park everyday and he is now behaving (mostly) and getting better. I walk him in gentle leader but this has not reduced the leash reactivity. How do address these issues?
I've worked for vets and the only dog that ever bit me was a small dog. We called what this dog is doing small dog syndrome
Good information. Thank you. I seen a video one time where a woman rescued a neighborhood dog. She kept him for several months. He killed the cat and then later fought with one of her smaller dogs. He then tried attacking her and kept causing her. How to avoid things like that? The dog was too small in size to protect itself.. How to break up a fight and not get bitten?
I wish I had found your channel back when my dog Elliott was possessive over stuff and when we went to get it from him he would snap at us. Also he didn’t like certain people in our building.
Zak George just mentioned you in his new uploaded video and I got super excited!! That’s big man 🙏🙌
Ya, talking about the new AVSAB statement condemning ALL "adverse" dog training methods (both physical or mentally stressful). Better a dog attack, run-off, be medicated or basically be horrible than receive a correction and be told "nope, not acceptable". Ridiculous!!
@@amymutschler9616 agreed lol
I would very much like to hear Joel talk about this!
@@amymutschler9616 yes agree
@@guitarman3001 Um...wrong. I really don't care what you say, the proof is in the pudding. I have had dogs my ENTIRE life. It is definately ridiculous that I am supposibly now unable to tell my dog "No" that a behavior is unacceptable, whether it be verbally or with a correction. Or that my dogs won't love me because I set limits. My dogs would never leave my side if I allowed it. No scientist's "study" is going to make me reverse 50 years on hands on animal companionship. I LOVE MY DOGS, thats why I sent rules and limits and have reasonable consquences. Just like raising kids you have to have the LOVE WITH the discipline in order to build a relationship. Otherwise you either raise a complete brat or a hateful creature. That's why it's called balanced....
Joel - near the end, the little guy went after the brown doodle a bit. Is that okay? My little guy sometimes does the same thing - like saying “back off”. Really liked seeing a feisty small dog with issues - would love to see a video with a small dog with leash reactivity on a walk like you did with the Great Dane and the client (that was so helpful!)
My shiba does the front paw thing every time she gets picked up
The first this little dude runs op to Prince and he stops and looks down like. "What the f....?".
In an uncontrolled environment, can't guarantee the big dog will stop at pinning.
I can promise you this big dog will stop in any environment
Damn harness also triggers the pulling more
Great video! I call it small man syndrome.. aggressive and willing to take on anyone, regardless of who they are. I’m glad Prince didn’t think he was worth the effort... I’m on my 4th Dobie, ( 6 month B/T dog) I Love the breed, I’ll never find a smarter, loving, loyal, strong willed companion in the dog world!
its always the little ones😭 my mini poodle thinks she’s big enough to fight
This is my Jaxxie 100%. Only difference between this dog and mine is the color, Jaxxie is all black with some white. He was 3 pounds when I got him and I took him outside one day to potty and the neighbors let their dog out, which happens to be a ginormous lab mix. Needless to say, that dog barreled over to see my puppy and my puppy freaked out (i assume that in his mind he was being attacked) now I believe my dog has dog aggression issues and im afraid to even take him for walks (leash pulling identical to this video). I've got issues to resolve in order to get my dog out for walks. As for other dogs, not many around me to socialize him with.
This is my dog exactly, I have 3 maltese x shih tzu's. I got the male first and he is calm and quiet then I got her and she is a little ball of energy, she barks and growls at everything and she made sure that she rules over him. We have recently kept their puppy and worried that she pulls is teaching her bad habits. After watching your videos I realise that we are a big part of the problem for letting her getting away with all the leash pulling, growling and barking at other dogs and people etc. My problem is where do I start........
YES!!! Okay say I have a bold little dude who has been calming down with some of your methods, weekly socialization classes, e-collar training, etc. but is still a reactive jerk? He is a teenager so does it just take time? What do we do from here?
Beckman makes for a natural calf wrangler lol
