"We use different languages like dutch and german" "poopo....Completely made up word 🤷♂" That one killed me hahaha
Did met a farmer, who did have 3 sheep dogs, so he did speak 3 language, English, Swedish, and German to give them command, so he could give them separate orders at the same time.

isnt that the dogs nickname?
I trained my own service dog and this was one of the first things I worked on with her! I made sure she only listens when I am talking to her
Congrats on training your service dog! That is a great accomplishment. I bet you two are a great team!
@@pamanderson1417 aww. Thank you so much!
Nice! 🥉 to comment wins boops given to Magnus from you!
@@modernmalinois aww thank you!
This is what I did with mine as well. She knows commands in English, German, Klingon, and all kinds of non-verbals.
2:35 being bodyslammed by a small pack of malligators sounds like a perfectly acceptable way to go tbh
Not only do I think you’re an amazing dog trainer who understands why and how we should be doing the things we do in training. But you also convey the information that’s needed very well. Thank you for what you do for us and for you pups!
Think dogs are amazing but why allow them to jump on you and barge you.
@@craiggibson4531 it’s not “jumping and barging “ on him they’re trained attack dogs “engaging” a target, which just happens to be himself. The pup couldn’t really “attack” without breaking some personal space rules. Dogs can do all different types of things and still be good dogs. Hope this helps!
I'm going to use this channel to show that dogs are much happier when they've been properly trained. It's shocking to me how there are a lot of people who don't believe that a well trained dog is a happy dog. Or rather, an untrained dog won't have the tools to deal with a stressful situation/life. It's about helping the dog filter out unnecessary noise and not about having a dictatorship level of control over it. It's your job to make sure the dog is safe and accounted for and when it understands that, it will be a lot calmer and happier in general.
I've had 2 service dogs that were owner trained, my 2nd just retired due to health concerns. He is turning 6 this year and has discoid lupus, it can cause joint pain so I don't want him to be in pain while we work. I'm getting my next prospect soon! My dogs absolutely loved working, they worked at home and brought me their harnesses every morning because they wanted to leave the house and start working. Every time I gave them a command their tails wagged. They LOVED having a purpose, it was like a game to them! They would watch me constantly while we walked in public, awaiting commands. I actually hated when they looked at me 24/7 so I had to train them to look away. I have very bad PTSD and social phobia so I'd rather want them to pay attention to our surroundings so I don't accidentally walk into someone. I'm afraid of lifting my head in public because I fear that I will get hurt again, so I've bumped into a few things.. Luckily they started watching their surroundings more after I trained them to! They also got lots of naps while they were working, and before we went somewhere I would play with them to get their energy out. Before we got back into the car I would run around the sidewalk first.
It's so interesting that that dog absolutely LIVES to do everything that he says! He is absolutely LOVING IT. It must have taken hundreds of generations of breeding to make a dog that receptacle to commands. So cool.
Honestly as someone with a mix breed that is mainly Malinois I think it's just how they are. Then again I don't know how Malinois came to be. They are highly intelligent and love working in one way or another
@@klodabear3932 German Shepherd and Belgian Malinois are the two most eager to please dogs on earth. They live for the words "good dog". Malinois have about 2x the energy as any other dog. But if you want an animal for service or protection, they are your best bet
Also an amazing trainer helps!! ..You can do similar things with most dogs if you put in the work! 🥰🙏🐶
Malinois have an extremely high will to please, probably one of the highest among all dogs.
You havent been paying attention. The dog does not live to do everything his owner says. Not even close. He does everything so that he can have his reward. Ball and playtime and/or treats. Thinking the dog does it because he "Absolutely LIVES" to do everything the owner says is just anthropomorphizing the animal.
I ALWAYS wanted a mal when I was younger but I’m now a very self aware Havanese owner 😂 I just don’t have the high energy physical lifestyle or space they need so it would just be disastrously irresponsible. Now my perfect little 8lb floof and I sit at brunch and watch your videos ❤
🥰 Awwww that’s so sweet !
Havanese is also a great, cute dog. And I guess you can still train your Hava?? 😊
@Olm9 yeah she knows some adorable party tricks and in my (totally unbiased!) opinion, she's the best floof to ever walk the planet! I could not love her more and would HIGHLY recommend the breed 🥰
"Now my perfect little 8lb floof and I sit at brunch and watch your videos" LOL. That's priceless! I have wanted a Malinois since I first discovered them. I like to rescue dogs tho and chances are slim, I would think, that a shelter would have one. But the dog gods had other plans for my husband and me. I passed a bewildered dog in Nov that was out in the middle of the salt flats near my home. It was dark and cold. I coaxed her out of the middle of the road with chicken wings. Did what I could to find her owners but I would have hesitated to give her back (if they wanted her) due to the shape she was in. They would have a lot of explaining to do. She's now found her forever home with us. She is spayed, clean, checked for heartworms (clear), shots and living her best life with our other rescue dog. Oh, she's a English Cream Goldendoodle! Far cry from a Malinois LOL, SUCH a couch potato! I'd still like to have a Malinois but like you, it would be irresponsible of me and super selfish.
Mad props for choosing a dog that is right for you! I bet you two have a wonderful life together :)
I work with an ol farmer who used to work three or four dogs at a time on a station and he tried to explain most of this to me on our travels. Eight to nine commands per animal…voice/whistle. I didn’t quite get until right now. Amazing, just amazing
My Dad was like that. Had a team of anything from 4 to 6 dogs and a whistle that would make your ears ring. Multiple whistles for different things - move stock away, bring them in, go left, go right, bark, shut up, stand still, walk forward, run, settle down stir it up etc - and also changing the tone or urgency of the whistle subtly changed the command requirements. When he passed I inherited his last remaining working dog and she whelped not long after. We had no idea who the sire was but Dad was always meticulous with his breeding, even if he left no record, and the pups were all beaut dogs. I kept one bitch pup from the litter who was the spitting image of her mum and I named her after her drand-dam. I can't whistle like Dad could so my training and commands were different but that didn't stop Wendy from doing her thing at 200%. Eventually I found instead of casting Wendy out left or right with a subpar whistle and directing her actions like a puppetmaster, it easier to tell her to "look!" and she'd scan in a clockwise circle until she found something that was attention-worthy. A further "look!" command told her that wasn't the target or a "go on!" told her it was. Got to the point I didn't even have to say look! while doing routine work. She got to know at certain points and places that X needed rectifying or was going to happen and would sort it herself. It was like having a co-worker who was faster, more agile, less annoying and much more low maintenance than the average person. If only she learnt how to latch gates shut 🤣 Making her think more for herself instead of me directing her every action didn't stop her from being able to do silly shit like me giving her instruction and her following until she realised I was getting her to muster and bring in her own puppies 🤣 she used to get the goofyist look on her face when I trolled her like that. Cats, kittens, chickens, her own pups, even ducklings swimming in the dam lol turkeys, goats, pigs and horses 🤣 made her a really good hunting dog too. Get her to move goats or turkeys then "wait!" which was basically a drop n stay command and you could safely empty the banana clip of a 10.22 over her head and know she wasn't moving a muscle. She was the best, smartest, kindest dog I've owned and I dont think I'll ever have another like her. Even as I sit here with my 3 super smart and affectionate Mals, I still miss Wendy to this day. Truly one in a million.
Back when I was starting out with my dog, I always felt terrible because my dog wouldn't want to do tricks without a reward. Thanks to your videos I realized it was normal. Who would work for free? Not me or my dog that's for sure
German dude here: The direct translation of "Fuß" is foot. German dog owners usually use the "bei Fuß" command if they want their dog to follow close by. I guess the English equivalent would be the heel command. "Bei Fuß" would be pronounced like "buy fooz", but it's a long and kind of slow command so many Germans say "Fuß" really short and sharp like you do in this video. Take this as a German quality seal of approval ;) Have a great day! Excellent video btw!
I actually used to think he is german because he uses "Fuß", "gib Laut", "pack" and "aus"
That's the amazing thing about training a dog, you can honestly use any word you want! It doesn't even have to mean the same thing lmao.@@k-lab_bbx
This man is incredible. Such a kind dog trainer. Wish there were more trainers like him out there.
Fantastic! I’m working with my beautiful Malinois. I rescued him from a local high kill shelter here in town. He is incredible.
This was really clear on why you do what you do regarding commanding your dogs. And the reason for not using words which are being used in daily conversations are (stupidly enough) quite the eye opener for me. I'm definitely going to implement a lot of this helpful tips. Thank you so much. 🙏 All the best from the Netherlands.
Mijn Rottweiler heb ik getreend in't Nederlands. Hij raakt dan niet in de war haha Groetjes uit Amerika!
I will say, listening to this audio on headphones is... intimate. Great advice!
Trying to give that authentic experience. Haha
Sir, what you achieve with your dogs and the way you achieve it is inspiring!! In each video I feel the love and respect you have for the relationship between you and your dogs. Thanks for sharing.
I totally love how much these boys love their dad & their totally huge amount of intelligence & how much their dad loves them all❤
The ladies love their dad & r outrageously poppa superior to their race,unreal harmony, WOW hugely attentive & over the top impressive.I bet our Lord Jesus Christ has a huge smile on his face & thinks job well done my fine & fellow servants.
I'm loving your training tips. I adopted a 3 year old mixed breed doggo with a ton of energy and minimal training not too long ago. She's learning so much and it's really cool to build that relationship with her
Thank you. I'm on the verge of getting a 3yr old GSD and I've been thinking about commands that he will only obey from me. You have just confirmed my thoughts and I can now develop my own and begin to integrate slowly as I use the more common words and phrases that anyone can use. Hopefully, over time, I can replace them completely.
I had a hearing dog and came with 11 sounds and retired at 31 sounds. He even told me to put my seatbelt on in the plane before the overhead lights did.😊
"its a misconception that German shepherds need German commands" wait... people think this?
Impressive to say the least. It must require patience, consistency, and dedication on the trainer’s part; and the dog’s immediate obedience provides the reward. Could watch them all day. Totally inspirational. 👏👍🐾
Best explanation on commands I’ve ever seen on KZhead. Keep the videos coming, they’re very informative & entertaining.
I’ve been watching many of your videos. You are an amazing trainer, I’d love to have my dog even remotely close to this. Great advice! She’s a staffy, lots of energy and high prey drive so lots of work but totally worth it especially seeing your videos and the end result!
That is incredible, you absolutely crush it w/ training. My 2 GS just turned 1 & if not too late I gotta implement this, but starting at 2 months old it woulda been wise
These dogs are great animals and the work been done with them is absolutely top notch k9 work! I love your vids!
Watching you train your dog both is inspiring and makes my heart happy. My little mal nearly did me in today. She’s a challenging dog and compared to my working line GSDs she gives me a run for my money. I put her away, watched a few of your videos and took her back ojt with a change if perspective
always love watching you and your intensity with such awesome pups!
I am a 58 yr old woman that lives by herself who's neighborhood is becoming very bad..I've been given a 8 week old female Malinois for protection. I am watching, soaking up all videos..I am 1000% dedicated to teach my baby Lila all that I can. I know that I am lacking in knowledge but I am so eager to help Lila become become an amazing protection dog..maybe I'm reaching too far?
I thank you so very much for all your videos and the helping info within! My Dutch is a rescue with many bad habits and I am actually getting some results from following your advice...instead of just getting mauled non-stop as before. Thx for doing this for free!!
I’m so glad I just found your channel. These videos make me smile so much
"Pack" means Grab in German "Fuß" means foot in German, Sometimes you can say "Beifuß" which is a command that Dog owners in Germany usw to Tell their Dog to Walk "by their feet" "Aus" means Off, or Stop in German "Gib laut" means give sound, make noise in German
Thank you for this video, I did ask for something similiar a couple of weeks back and this vid was ON POINT. Again, thank you for all you do for me and my dog ! :)
I love that your commands are special and sometimes just made up! Fabulous idea!!
I'm in awe. I don't have the consistency needed to achieve such lofty heights🤣. Beautiful pups and well done! Great advice on commands. It is true using common words comes back to haunt you if you are not careful.
Absolutely love your videos amazing watching how well trained your dogs are
@modernmailinois 8:38 that command is actualy Dutch! :D You say 'tussen' which is Dutch for 'in between'. Exactly what your dogs are doing
omg haha. I never knew that. thanks!
Your commands are incredible! I learn/ have learned a bunch from you. Thank you. Cheers in 2024
All of your baby’s are having fun without knowing they are being trained And I do believe you are having fun Great job You and your babies should be in the movies lol
Love your videos and your dogs just the few videos I have seen I have gained so much information. I now have many more to watch Thank you for what you do.
It's incredible to see your dogsin absolute unison.
ya, I really enjoy watching you with your pups. Really enjoyable, a boy and his dog...
I like your video how you trained BM. Your dogs are very obedient and sharp. Keep it up. Very informative.
I'm a dual purpose explosive detection dog handler/trainer (more handler than trainer) and I trained my K9 in Japanese (I am a fluent speaker of the language). Here in the States it works wonderfully as only about 0.2% of people in the US speak Japanese. That said, the possibility of my wife and I returning to live in Japan again always exists (though it's not likely), so the Japanese words that I used are random words that do not correspond to the action that my dog engages in. For example (these are not her actual command words): Using the Japanese word for "Night" as her sit command. Using the Japanese word for "Pass" as her down command. Using the Japanese word for "Religion" as her center command. For most important commands (Search/Find it and Bite) I have assigned random words in two word pairs so unless both words are used together in a distinct fashion, she will not take action. That way, her commands are hidden under a second and even third layer of language to prevent any native speakers from knowing or predicting her commands. Great video!
Same here I use uwu for sit, owo for here, etc
@edgarm3061 And you just posted that on the internet, so anyone who reads it knows how to control your dog (even if it's highly unlikely that anyone makes the connection). I have to assume that your dog is a pet dog, and not a working dog.
The lil play session was refreshing to watch...🥰🥰
Absolutely gorgeous dogs. And so impressive. Great work.
Such an awesome pack. Beautiful Mals. You can tell, they are sooooo happy. Thank you for the video. I have 2 GSDs, and getting ready to pick up a new puppy. I will be using this technique for language with him. GSDs and Mals are far the best dogs in the world IMO.
I wish I had given more thought to my recall command. I've got a fairly low voice by default so thought a high pitched "YEEEEEP" would be the right play to stand out from the other commands. But when I take my dogs on walks I realise how demented I must sound to other walkers. At least it works 😂 - love your content.
Very clean OUT. With 3 dogs and no E collar👌 Your dogs are very calm. As well hey. Respect
Hi! Would you be willing to make a video on how to build drive and/or value for certain toys? It would be really helpful for a lot of people. Love the way you train! Also, are the dogs always gonna be working for something? Usually I see most trainers say that after a while you slowly stop using treats/rewards, do you train the same? Edited to add the question.
I can see the headlines "A pack of dogs viciously gnaw on their handlers balls"
Im thinking about getting an airedale terrier puppy (I had two as a little kid and a fox terrier) and I really want to bond with my dog like you do with yours
Ohhhh!! I have an airedale terrier too! 😍😍😍
@@francescaserino119 ours was the complete opposite of the Mal, it wasn’t interested in what you were doing or wanted , just what it wanted to do lol Super independent character but not for everyone
@@goldilocks913 yes I agree. They are VERY indipendent and VERY stubborn (they where used in second wolrd war), but if you take them at 8 weeks old and bond very very good with them they are WONDERFUL working dogs. 😍 (p.s. sorry for my bad english 😅)
@@francescaserino119 your English is perfectly fine! Yes they’re very brave! We lost our Airedale to an infected womb at 6 years old and the vet said any other breed would have been dead weeks ago.
@@goldilocks913 Oh thank you very much! I am very sorry about that! Very sad 😔... I hope that you will feel better! I totally agree: they are also very strong! ❤
I saw your works through the shorts, Malinois are my favorite breed. Very intelligent dogs.
This is a man who is living his best life and I love to see it so, so much
I have seen other videos of yours with negative comments. It’s one person cannot tell these dogs. Love this, they are blind!!!
Best one of your videos! Thanks for posting 😊
I stated watching this channel last night and i am following i love with it up to now i have subscribed now🇰🇪❤️🙏
Can you please make a video on first time using certain commands on pup's first training? Like how to start using the usk, pak and kushei as a command instead of normal english words.
It's just like using any "normal" English word. You teach the behavior, then you start using the word you want before giving the cue/lure for said behavior. Eventually fade the cue/lure and just use the word
I watched a video by McCann dog training and she taught the dog to sit with the word pineapple ! Lol 😂 🍍
I think it is french. Assez, couchez,
@@Mike.Sutton I just need to use the lure on the first training then eventually I'll gradually remove the treats and just using the word command?
After watching this, I do believe I have gotten myself in WAY over my head. But I sure love my boy. He is totally worth anything I may have to face to meet his needs.
You are a amazing trainer of your dogs. They are so awesome
The energy level and laughs make your videos enjoyable. High energy dogs for High energy People.
This whole time I thought you had one Mali, nope just three identical ones lol love your energy and training style! Subscribed. Can’t wait for more content! Your luring video is “private”, is there another platform you have more content on? Keep up the amazing work!
Your dog names are just so absolutely unique and fabulous!
That was beautiful and informative…thank you 😃
What a pleasure to behold!!! 🐶🙏😍
This is awesome I just got a GSD puppy I am currently training him but I am using regular command so this is helpful hope I can have this type of control.
I wish I can bring you here to train my dogs , absolutely amazing
I love the "aus" and "gib Laut". And the overall mix of languages. Was wondering from some of the shorts i watched before. Great explanation! Thank you
"Fuss" sounds totally authentic - as a commune 👍
Magnificent work, magnificent dogs!
I just can't wait to get my firs Mal and to do this! love your content, keep it up
I was going to train my puppy in another language but I thought I’d be making it harder for myself. Only just a week in though so I’ll take your advice, I love how you train and your relationship with your dog. I want that with my Doberman!
Amazing videos. Great work 👍
Love watching your videos so inspiring
Great video!😊 I love how happy your dog is while working with you. He clearly loves it🥰. I have a 7 month old Shepard girl and want to implement some of your ideas into my training. She doesn’t seem to have that much drive though, i‘m honestly surprised she’s so chill.😂 But she‘s getting reactive towards other dogs on the leash (but she loves other dogs, so i guess frustration?). I can‘t think of how to correctly correct her, she doesn’t listen to pops on the leash or me beeing in between. I just hold her next to me and walk by for now… But i would love to have some ideas from you! Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪
May I offer mho? I think firstly you need to get your commands down. Without a leash. Then use proper leash training. Although if you were doing commands as well as He does, maybe leash training would be quite easy... ? Because doesn't he say often that you train them (commands) in all types of situations so they're acclimated to always listening to your commands no matter where or what? And his dogs are 100% in tune with him. That's probably the hardest step! And I assume, the first.
Been waiting forever for thus video. Thanks!!
So cool! Beautiful pups
Watching your videos are so enjoyable Sir, i have question, how do you train them into going backwards with that sound like a machinegun?
Your Videos encourages me to train my Malinois Xs pups. They learned to be house broken.for poop, their name and sit, plus waiting for permission to eat in 3 days. I didn't think there was anything else to teach them.but "Come". I watch your Videos and try to.make up for 10 months wasted. These Dogs are So Smart they want to learn. My one wasn't sitting properly at attention. I put her rear.legs where I wanted them 3 times and said sit like a nice girl esch time. Since then if occasionally she sits with her one leg under her all I have to say is sit like a nice girl. I'm.changing it to "attention". But it only 3 corrections they know what you want is amazing. Good Luck to Everyone with your Dog training.
He never tell how to actually train them like a proper guid he always gives the math behind it but not show how to actually do it
Absolutely amazing
Awesome video! Thank you so much for taking the time to make it!
Absolutely fabulous thank you
Great video :) I have used a mix of the languages i have a relation too - so i use a little bit Norweigan, but also Swedish , Mohawk and Lakota ( Sioux )..and a few english words.. Lol.. works very well here in Norway with my beloved Dutchie :) maybe i need a couple dutch words too? ;)
Finally the answer on the most important question on this channel, in my eyes..: Why these words..meaning? Allright, no more questions for now
Best dog training channel I've come across
We love your training I've started to say this stuff to our boy haha 😄 thankyou so much
How cool are these dogs. lol. ;-) Endless source of energy and good vibe.
Thank you so much for the Beautiful Energy 🧚💚🧚
Great work and content ❤
awesome as always!
Love your stuff!!
Nice! I’ll have to try with my new malinois also, first! Turning post notifs on was a good choice 😃
Boom! 🥈 to comment wins chin scratches given to Alrick from you!
@@modernmalinois Yay!
I'd really love to read a training book written by you. I personally learned mostly myself how to train my dogs and you inspired me in many ways.
I love dogs very much, had two growing up but now that I’m moving away I want to get one of my own. Never trained a dog properly and I want to do a good job not just for my sake but for his
Love your work.. very impressive 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Can you advise me.. I have a Portuguese water dog and I’ve been training her as a service dog.. (I’m a fairly strong dog trainer with lots of understanding of dog physiology and experience) she is now 16 months old.. she listens to me very well inspite her independent stubborn nature. I must say we are very close.. but there’s one main thing about her I can not deal with and that she is way to friendly with people .. how can I reprogram this behavior from her?
Great showmanship!
I could listen to you recall your sweet sweet dogs for hours and not get tired of that rolling a!
You have some beautiful Mals there!!! I have a 2 year old male Mal...looks very much like your bigger male Mal. He gets plenty of daily exercise and I love training him. I think Mals are just as smart as Border Collies...maybe even a little smarter. I have a large backyard and he loves playing fetch and training there BUT...If I leave him out alone he gets himself into trouble digging holes , tearing down plants etc...Malinois are such beautiful dogs, so full of energy and so eager to please you and just so darn trainable and quick to learn. You can really see in your videos why they're so popular with the military and police forces. People need to understand you really need to engage these dogs mentally and physically on a daily basis...if you're not willing to do that, don't get a Malinois. You really need a large backyard for these dogs as well.
Full time job, those dogs. Wow.
Man this feels like magic…❤❤
I wish you could train a service dog. I know you could, I just wish it was a service you offered. Love you and your dogs! ❤
Best Ive ever seen. Fantastic
