Prince is such a great dog. He never hurt the other dog he just let him know hey buddy I’m not the one! Loved this.
He truly is phenomenal! Both Prince and Rosco (Joel’s equally handsome red & rust dobie who he had before Prince - Rosco went over the Rainbow Bridge) are two of the very best Doberman good bois I have ever seen!
@@AleisterCrowleyMagus Bosco :D
You can see the dog looking to you for guidance when you approach Prince behind the fence.
I noticed that too
I noticed that too. Definitely a lot of potential there
@@joshwilson6473 Yes, I immediately thought, "He's learning already, he's smart." Future is looking good for him I think.
Yep, a complete change of attitude! Amazing to behold. And Joel did such a quick diagnosis of the issue, methodically testing the dog.
Yes, that was quick learning, and very impressive from Beckman.
The young owner looked very attentive and dedicated. She likely learned some very good lessons and good for her.
Yes agree - he tried to bite every other person than the one holding the lead.
Or not 😂
The older owner seemed less receptive and more apprehensive about the training.
This dog was craving some leadership and guidance. Look at all that eye contact the dog was giving Joel after he got some guidance.. almost like he was saying “okay you got this, I don’t have to carry the world on my shoulders”
Joel was like, “Nah, he doing too doggone much. This is MY house. I was just living my life!” I love when Joel is over it 😂
"I was just living my life!" hahah
GSD pyr cross has so much potential for scary stuff. The intelligence, the independence, the territorial nature, the aggression, and the sheer size. This dog is a puppy. With consistent strict boundaries, he could be an amazing dog. You can see him thinking.
Totally agree - those eyes! A smart dog with loads of potential. He doesn’t feel neutral about his environment, and lacks the confidence as a puppy in regard to potential threats. Maybe a trait from both breeds (regard to perceiving threats). My dog is exactly the same - some dogs just aren’t happy go lucky. Thanks to Joel, he is well on the way to understanding the world a bit better, and getting the firm, consistent leadership from his owners to be an amazing dog.
Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!
Living a nightmare
I have a mix of the same breed and my girl is the absolute best. She goes everywhere with us, is same around dogs, children and people. The key? Just like Joel said, discipline, socialization and lots of training. She is confident and safe because she knows her place in the world. This makes her a happy, well adjusted dog.
Teach dogs to be comfortable being uncomfortable. Discomfort makes change possible. No one has ever learned something important comfortably.
Literally forcing their brain to create new/different pathways.
YES!!! All the ineffective dog trainers who preach against letting the dog become stressed are only prolonging the struggle and the stress.
Reactive dogs are already uncomfortable and stressed. You need to lead them into understanding that the environmental trigger is not a threat. Be calm and patient while letting them go through it. The brain doesn't function well when stressed.
it's how we ourselves learned as a species and is what this next generation seems to forget i.e. they want all comfort all the time
So very true. I can't count the times I've watched my neighbours' late-teen daughters sit poking at their phones while the washing is getting rained on. Not once have they walked or caught the bus to school. @@bertvsrob
Great job. I dealt with a dog that bit me 5 times in one year. On one occasion I entered my kitchen, with my back to the dog on the other side of the house. It ran across the house and bit me in the back of my ankle. Bad, bloody bite. Up until that point the owners had excuses for the dog's violent outbursts, but that ended after that unprovoked ankle bite. The owner was allowing way too much bad behavior besides the biting. She would forbid anyone to correct the dog, and when she intervened in my corrections, the dog became very violent and would even bite her! She kept saying the dog was just "protecting" her. She only relented when both her daughters were fed up with the jumping, scratching, and just awful behavior. It wasn't until I pinned the dog on the ground and made it completely helpless that it began respecting me or anyone else. After I did a collar-grab correction, the dog did a play bout with its tail wagging. It was enjoying being corrected! I watched her and others walk the dog. It's literally the dog walking them! Tension on the line. I sent Beckman KZhead videos for them to watch leash training. They ignored it, never watched the videos, and kept saying nothing works. I said you're not fooling me. I can see immediately that you haven't watched a single video. I did the leash training by pulling the dog when it attempted to walk me. In less than 5 minutes I had the dog checking in and never any more tension. Owners that are too lazy and/or too ignorant must really hate their dogs. I don't know how else to say it. In this video I see owners that are determined to fix an important problem. Very good. If you are the owner of a dangerous dog, please stop molly coddling the dog. You're going to get someone hurt and you're going to lose your dog. And that's 100% your fault.
Good comment. The owners are the problem with a lot of the dogs.
I have had a similar thing happened with a small dog, a Jack Russel terrier that tried to bite me several times. Often when I approached its owner to talk about a work related thing and he started to try to nip my trousers, but his owner caught him in the act. One day his owner wasn’t there and the dog bit my louse jeans at the ankle, I immediately grabbed him and pressed him down to the floor and held him there growling at him. He looked very surprised and for a long while always waged his tail at me and showed submission. Then one day, surely a year from that he nipped my trousers again, but this time his owner was there. I spun around and forced him down with a “No!” and hold him until I felt he relaxed. His owner didn’t say anything but didn’t react negatively at all. After that he never tried biting me. I guess his reaction was some kind misdirected protection, as I know his owner didn’t baby pamper him and got really annoyed when he launched at people even if it mostly was fake attacks.
@bat_bat 👏
I agree except I think there are exceptions for mentally ill dogs. I believe I have one of those.
Perfect evidence this can happen with any breed. I've had Labs all of my life and while they seem so happy and friendly I have seen some that are true assholes that were never trained.
20 seconds in and this is a reminder of why we have to dominate dominant, aggressive dogs. They don't HAVE to be euthanized if they can be trained!!!!! Thank you Joel for being a God sent angel for these animals!!
Unfortunately, not enough people have the mindset to be the one in charge over their dominant dogs.
@@jrcook927 true as sad as it may be, aggressive dogs are a tremendous liability and should be put down. This will also improve future dogs bc only friendly dogs will be bred
Its always the Owners that make a dog bad unfortunately the dogs pay the price
@@jrcook927 buh buh buh thats becwos alfa pack theewee n dominance has been debunkededed, cute little 7 month pup just gets abused should be the title here. zak george says he's making a video about this right now!!!
Dogs live in a pack. As such, have a pack mentality. If you won't lead your pack, your dog will. Then your dog will think you need protected, not that you are its protector. Leading your dog down a road of aggressive behavior. Size doesnt matter. Your dog needs to know you are the boss, if it doesn't, your relationship will suffer. Edit: My aunt has a 20lb shitstorm. I fixed it from biting me, pretty sure it thinks I'm the alpha now. He's my little buddy now that we got it all sorted. The dog still runs alpha over her though. Her form of discipline is words and tone of voice... it's not an Englishman aunt Kim! It's a shitstorm... My dad has a Rottweiler husky mix, the thing is such a Chad! He's getting older now, but he wanted to be every dogs boss and normally is based on stature. He never really looked to fight, just to 200% tell the other dog that I'll be your boss if things get out of line. He also has a habbit of growling in a sort of playful way, testing those angsty watters... you can always tell if he means business by the fur between his shoulders, and the tail. He's a lot of dog though 108lbs. He definetly makes people uneasy, though he's really just the happiest guy who wants to befriend every human. The damn thing takes itself for walks when it gets out! I've seen him coming down the block headed home... So funny! The mailman doesn't like him though, which just peaks his interest more (why can't I sniff the blue guy? He carries so many smells!)
I love it when you diss self-proclaimed "trainers" that can't handle these types of dogs with their constant "positive reinforcement" because it's true 😂😂😂 youre the best joel
Usually a carrot is more effective than a stick. Just don't forget to keep that stick at hand should the need arise.. A stick is useless with a 1yr old dog at 30 feet distance, holding a bird carcass between it's jaws, that you want it to give up. A carrot did (okay, it was a small piece of dried meat). It was the 3th time I walked that dog, and this was 100% by positive reinforcement.
@@bakkerem1967 All decent trainers will start training with positive reinforcement and some leash pressure to communicate and guide the dog. Corrections/negative reinforcement comes when the dog already knows what you expect of him. But for behavioral stuff, sometimes you need negative reinforcement to teach the dog what you don't want him to do. But, as very often said, none of it is one size fit all.
@@bakkerem1967 look at you completely missing the point. you are not a professional TRAINER. and your dog is not a PROBLEM DOG. you're just an average joe. Of course "just positive reinforcement" will work on your milquetoast mutt.
@@dianadelcastillo1896 great description! They go hand in hand. (Positive and negative reinforcement) Does your child come to you more readily when you yell @ it, or when you offer it basically anything as a suprise? A dog is like a child. If your child is getting in fights it gets grounded. Using negative reinforcement to achieve positive results. The same should go for your dog. Your dog needs to know what is and is not okay. Sometimes this can be done with words and an assertive manner, breaking the dogs focus and making demands of it in a civil fashion. Other times it needs more drastic measures to be taken. If your dog is attacking If your child is attacking people for walking by you. You have created a societal problem. If that child wasnt a child, but owned property (dog). You could expect me to attack back. And if you jump in, it will be to your detriment. I'm 6'2" with a muscular build. DONT GET IN MY WAY WHEN DEFENDING MYSELF OR I MIGHT FIND A NEED TO DEFEND FROM YOU TOO IN AN AGRESSIVE MANNER. If you want to lose a lawsuit, by all means have at it. Keep your property from attacking civilians. Civilians have vastly more rights.
@@bakkerem1967 But positive reinforement is utterly useless unless there's positive behaviour to reinforce. You can't just reward a dog every time it doesn't attack someone, for example, Cus it will take an attack or three and the missing rewards afterwards, for the dog to even figure out what the rewards were for in the first place. Using a treat, to get your dog to drop something it's picked up, teaches the dog one thing: Picking things up, causes treats to appear. For a short term fix, you risk making the bahaviour even more ingrained. It all depends on what the behaviour is, and WHY the behaviour is. But using treats to make dogs drop things, is the best way to train a dog to keep picking things up. All that dog knew was "Dead bird in mouth equalled tasty meat treat". A few more replays of that scenario, and the dog will learn that it can get treats by picking up carcasses
Prince: Is this the guy?
Glad these owners found a reliable trainer who knows how to handle aggressive dogs properly. I hope he does board and train with you. I imagine he will thrive after that. He already did so well after a one hour session.
He does board and training?
A shepherd Pyrenees mix. Thats a lot of energy in one dog.
This dog has got away for 7 months with no one correcting him...I love how you started telling him "hey" meaning cut your bull out now!!! But you also let him know when he was good and okay. Stern leadership and positive confirmation is what this dog needed and lacked. Great Video ❤
*no one correcting him in a way that meant anything to him. The younger girl did not look helpless, she looked like she had tried and failed many times and that's why they were there. IMO this was probably a gravitas/conviction/followthrough issue on her part. That's what is was for me for many years, anyway.
yep, 100% gurantee, this dog was showing such tendencies at 8 weeks with litter mates, he probally was also left litter mates over 10 weeks as well, at 6 weeks pups are not to aggressive , past 8 weeks they start getting nasty with each other AND this behavior is then passed on to the new owners who if dont put a stop to it the pup then acts that way with the owners AND THATS ALL BEFORE THEY HIT THERE FU STAGE at 11-18 months.
@@mikeriverajr4447 I got my greyhound puppy at 10 weeks! He was running and leaping at me and tearing my coat tails and pant legs. Puppy stuff. I collar corrected him every time he used his teeth on me. Taught him to retrieve and tug. Puppies need to learn how to play with us early on so tricky learning to build play and toy drive.
Well done Joel. Not even full grown! You just saved that dog's life.
I seriously think so as well. Joel showed what *real* training, firm and consistent training that is honest about the dog’s behaviors, can accomplish so this boy doesn’t end up at a shelter in the future and declared unadoptable and untrainable.
Yeah. Shepherd x Great Pyrenees is a bad combination. I just winced when he said that. Buddy of mine had a Pyrenees. Really moody dog.
Only if the follow-up is consistent.
@@Prodigy68 That depends on her. She needs to be willing to display the dominance (like yelling at him to snap him out of unacceptable mental state) the dog needs to respect her, and follow her direction. All depends if she has it in her. But you’re right. She has to be consistent to cement the change…and letting him know that he can’t simply do whatever he feels like.
@@kellygreeniiThey really need alot more than an hour with Mr. Beckman. If he is like this at 7 months, imagine when he 12 months and up. They are gonna have a blast the next 10-14 years if things do not change to another level. Also Guessing they dont live on the coutryside.
I found a cockerspaniel in my yard the one morning and this dog would be nice one second then try to bite fingers off the next. When i finally found his owner i asked him about it. The owner acted like it was no big deal and said; "He tries to bite my wife all the time" i could tell dude had no desire to fix behavior...and it was ridiculous (lwhy would u accept that kinda behavior? 🤦♂️)
There are so many "Dog Trainers" that use punishment literally. Thank you for showing that punishment does not have to mean abuse, and that consequence does have to mean pain and fear. Consequence is a correction, and correction is firm but fair. Love your common sense, no nonsense approach.
from 8:10 that dog has the most "what am I supposed to do now?" face I haver seen. I believe he has been bamboozled😂
Prince is great ❤ he wasnt even touched but realised this little "jerk" would have ment business if there was no muzzle on and he told him who's the boss the absolute right way... nothing better than this, wish we had a trainer with a helper dog like this everywhere on this planet, cause Joel is absolutely right, treats can not fix something like this!
Are some dogs just assholes? I love how you don't accept that everything is the owner's fault.
Yep they are like us sometimes' just assholes 😎
Not only can dogs be assholes, they can also be genuinely mentally ill.
Dear Joel, thank you for explaining, so very clearly and very honestly, to the owner that as you said dogs “don’t always have a reason” to bite, and that “you didn’t deserve and/or somehow “trigger” the bite, and the owner really needs to know that her dog is *not* “protecting” her or showing “fear” or “separation anxiety” or “just being reactive.” Far too many owners are told such things by certain trainer types, and then they go to (frankly ridiculous) great lengths to justify the dog’s behavior, which means the dog never gets firm and consistent and *positive* training. Excusing the behavior and failing to address it, and then just closing in the life of the dog because the biting and lunging is never addressed to the point that the dog is kenneled for hours, never meets other people or other dogs, lives a very lonely life, which is not the norm for dogs, and at worst, ends up at a shelter or being BEd because the dog never received consistent firm training like you model Joel is just so sad. Thank you for your work!!
Joel didn't look silly at all - impressive at keeping your cool!
I could have watched the whole hour of this session! I hope the owner can keep up the good work. That was crazy.
Omg. Nip this in the bud now. This dog is my dogs twin. Strict, strict, training needed. Leadership. They are very intelligent and can learn to behave, especially at 7 months. But work hard on this. Good luck!
You can see it in the eyes of the dog he was never been confronted... The way he looks waiting for what to do is great to see :)
Omg! The dog kept looking back at Joel when first going to the fence to meet Prince .. constantly checking in! This dog needs a strong leader!
Some dog owners refuse to accept that their dog exhibits dominance aggression and I didn’t know much about it until now and watching your method. Thanks again! I’m interested in becoming a dog trainer and one of integrating your practice with dogs to help them become better dogs.
I was thinking the exact thing you said about walking the fine line between pushing enough and pushing too much just before you said it in the video. It looked so smooth and calculated how you walked into the pool area and backed him up, but I was thinking "omg, this must feel intense, it's really just one step too far and that dog is going to lunge". Beautiful work, Joel, really just beautiful.
Prince is such a boss. What a great dog 🐕 P.s Seems like that dog can learn
I adopted a large 4-year-old creme Lab with Pyrenees from a local shelter. I found that using only positive rein enforcement training was not enough. The head halter on him for leash walking was crucial because he always forged ahead unless he's exhausted. Yes, this dog is also protective, reactive towards strangers/other dogs, and needs more socialization. However, he's smart, loyal, and an excellent watch dog. He is well worth the effort.
Joel, you're the best. Rain or shine you deliver!
Nice job, Joel. You the man. And Prince the dog. 😊
This dog is huge. Prime example of if you leave the discipline and respect till tyey are at this age it can be a serious problem especially if he can drag you around like nothing.
💥👍💥 Such great information!!!! Thank you for continuing with the "teaching" videos. Doesnt matter how many years i have been watching & rewatching your videos. These things are gold!
We see the devastating and negative outcomes in humans and animals when they’ve never been told, NO!! Or told no, but no follow through after the word.
Yep. No good bluffing if you are not willing to follow through. It's true of dogs, kids and international politics.
I love how he constantly looks at Joel like, "I serve at the pleasure of this guy with the leash."
All that checking in with you after minute 8:00. He's a different, happier dog already. His young owner shows real determination to get this dog trained. I love how you understand that there is a tipping point in a dog's nervous system and you know when to not reach it.
Just got baited in by the clip at the beginning of Joel being the BOSS at the gate....now ill watch. Holy loading and redirecting.
Last week I was in a store with my dog. When another dog got away from its owner and rushed to my dog . Because of your videos and Tom Davis I was able to not tighten up on my dogs leash.. it sure shook me up took me a few seconds to calm myself. But Elsie my dog quickly was ok. Thank you so much.
Thank you for making this and other high quality videos for us regular folks.
I saw that dog look at you like “ok, I’ll be good.” He can learn!!!
You are outstanding at what you do
Wow, this was a very good video, absolutely loved it & was glad to see/hear everything here! Im still in amazement of his age an aggression but happy they found you for the help they needed! Would love to hear about his progression afterwards even! Thank you!
Great work. He's a beautiful dog. Glad his family and him are getting help. Cheers for a happy dog life.
Do I have a dog? No. Do I plan on getting one? Nope, poor college student blah blah blah. I accidentally found this channel a few days ago and accidentally subscribed lmao So I've just been going through it, watching videos while I do other stuff. They're super informative and entertaining. It turns out a lot of stuff I thought about dog training is what Joel teaches so at least I know I'd be decent at training my dog in theory lmao
Check out the podcasts. He talks about so many aspects of life and not a ton about dogs. He's got a solid understanding of sensibility in things Except when he tells at construction workers and fights with homeless guys and bullies girl scouts 😂
another fantastic video. Thank you, Mr Beckman
These teaching videos are gold. Thank you! For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction ->> Joel + Prince! Beautiful dog, but yowzers. Interesting how he pulled backwards with all his might.
Absolutely incredible. I love your videos so much, they're game changers
Beautifully done. Respect for the dogs frame of mind explained so well.
Blessings to the owners that are willing to learn and make changes so their gorgeous doggie has a better life ❤❤ Wonderful video.
Your videos are helping me so much with my dominant dog. Thank you.
Hi Joel!! Brilliant video!!! This is exactly what my dog needs right now!❤
I'd love to see a follow up with this boy
Excellent teaching here! Empowering.
Wow this is a SERIOUS case. I learned so much watching Joel, I am a big fan of your content and I think you're making positive changes in the world. I would love to see more followup videos if the client returns, thanks again!
Aww...Im so glad these folks found their way to you....that big pup really wants to do his best! He really is so cute..look at that face!
This is just amazing !
Thank you Sir Joel,everytime i look on your videos and help me a lot with my 2 dogs. BEAUTIFUL dog,look same with my dog.. Great dog. All of the best from Romania !
Also shoutouts to Joel. Jeans and mesh shoes in a monsoon. Respect
There are so many dogs out there like him. Great video.
That dog did a huge 180. He seems like a good boy, he just needed to realize it himself.
I wish I could give this video 10 thumbs up, it’s just amazingly good. There is so much intention with your methods. And of course Prince rocked it too. I’m so glad the clients are trying to get a handle on this early on. Good on them.
Good stuff! The quality of the videos keeps steadily moving up and getting better. Absolutely gorgeous dog too!
this will be a big hit, great video, a masterpiece in my opinion
Your explanations and guidance plus the video were so good thank you ! (from the UK) 🤓
This was great!
Fantastic video!
At the end of videos, it is so cool to see how much the dogs truly respect Joel!!!!
This is amazing to see
Love your traing style! people are way to soft on there dogs! Always learn something new and enjoy when you upload! Much love from Chicagoooo!!!!!
another great video joel. also, heres a online treat for another job well done prince! 🍖
Nice to see him start to check in with you.
What a beautiful mix
I felt that he was insecure and dealt with it by lunging out probably because it had worked in the past, good work
This was very helpful
Beautiful dog
Another amazing educational video! I admire the masterful timing: what I saw was that Joel let Prince correct the dog's jerky behavior until the dog said "uncle" by backing up, away from Prince, tail tucked... Like he "got the message" & more was not necessary at his 7 mos age level. This interaction, IMO, was not messy at all. It was perfect. And SO necessary. Definitely good call to have the client's dog on leash during the interaction with Prince. This prevented the dog from running away, getting chased by Prince, feeling "victimized" in his overstimulated state, then feeling the need to defend himself against Prince. Joel set it up perfectly so that the young gun got the point, but was not disciplined harder that the 'kid' could understand. There is such a razor fine line between discipline & overkill. I truly look forward to Mr. Beckman's Coaching Program so I can learn more.
I hope there is an update to this dog at some point. Great job staying calm at the meeting when he lunged.
Lifting his paw and looking at you @ 08:28… you rocked his whole world 😂 man that is a hard one
1st impression @ :39 - wow, you're so chill! That would be hard not to react to, but I get it - it wasn't the time. Once you commit, you commit! Also, unphased by the rain, attention on the dog and he starts looking to YOU for cues. I loved watching the turn-around in this video.
The amount of eye contact he was giving you is incredible. Impressive.
This one was a masterclass!
That's quite a mix. The insecurity many GSDs have (as well as being intelligent) and their basic agility. Mix that with the independent thinking and protection against predators of the GP and their size/strength. Tempered with discipline, training, and socialization, he could be an amazing dog. He definitely needed that reality check he got. Prince earned extra cookies that day.
Duuude. I just saw tgis first video from you. Yoyr introducing and explain ia of this universe. Good job!
Awww when he looks at you so much while seeing prince
I have a 3 year old male (neutered) Anatolian Shepherd/Kangal Shepherd mix. He is super well behaved on the leash (thanks to your miracle method on loose leash walking) he loves people and kids and other dogs. He is very well behaved for his breed all around and a good citizen for the most part. Except for one dog who we pass regularly on walks. I am pretty certain it is a Dogo Argentino mix, but the owner was told when he got the dog its a boxer mix. It looks nothing like a boxer. It maybe a pit bull mix, but just from research the obvious look is Dogo Argentino. It is a male, at least a year older than my dog and I am pretty certain it is intact. The owner is a big strong guy. Anyways, this dog and mine always have a 1000 mile staring contest long before we're close to each other, and this other dog always flies at us and acts like it wants to kill us, and my dog always reacts in kind. In almost every encounter the agression is instigated by the other dog with 2 possible exceptions. I am pretty certain that my dog in these cases was trying to prempt the other dog and tell him to stop trying to hurt us. After both these times the other dog was a little less aggressive and there wasn't a massive blow up for a while. The stareoff before the blowup is truly legendary. The dog's owner is a big strong guy, and he struggles to hold his dog back. My dog is trying to protect both me and himself when he reacts. He is defensive, but I don't think he hates the other dog. I am a shorter woman, and I struggle to keep my Anatolian under control when this happens, even with a gentle leader on. The big strong man is almost getting pulled around when his dog looses his mind. The aggression was a lot worse before my dog got neutered at the appropriate age, but it is not going away. I don't think that getting them together is feasible on any level, just from my knowledge of the owner and his dog. He doesn't seem to be trying to fix his dog's behavior, and this has been going on for at least 2 years. I just want to prevent either myself and my dog or the other owner and his dog from getting hurt by controlling my own dog as best as possible. Any advice? Thank you so much. I love your work and cannot express how greatful I am that you've made your training methods available to us all so that we can work towards making all our dogs better citizens. So much respect.
Your dog is doing his job. He's a guardian and a bloodsport breed is threatening you. Your dog is correct. But all you can really do is keep your dogs focus on you and break the staring contest. The other dog is the problem.
@@s.b.5259 Ok. that's what I thought. Thanks. 😊
Fantastic video.
This video shows how important it is to socialize your dog (properly) from a very young age. Especially with big powerful dogs. It is 100% easier to teach correct behavior than to wind back poor behavior.
I have been getting so much hate lately on different platforms for how I handle dogs like this. I am not abusive at all. I am just not going to let the dog have the control anymore and get away with it. Thank you for being no nonsense when training.
Loved it
Lesson learnt...don't get dogs that can overwhelm your physique. Period!
I weigh 110 and have worked with horses, many young stallions off the track, and weight does not matter. Turn their head and shoulder, they turn. While riding, get their inside hind leg under them, they bend and give. Don't pull on them though or you're through. Got to keep them moving forward though while you do it.
It’s not the physique, it’s the mind, energy and attitude.
Great vid!!
A lot of dogs just need a strong hand and firmness. Just like a kid needs boundaries, so do dogs.
8:20 "Are we gonna fight this guy? What do you wanna do? You're the boss, I'll back you up... Come on, are we gonna fight him?" LOL
I LOVE my trainer. She reminds me of you a lot and she is SUPER strict on the use of E collars. She will refuse to teach you about them until your dog walks mostly like an angel beside you. She pretty much said it like you. It could make things so much worse and its really good to have strong communication with your dog verbally and not need it.
Makes me happy these owners cared enough not to put this Dog down.
Hey, Prince & Joel
I take it its a good thing that the young dog looks up at you alot
Love the title, hilarious. I know at least Prince and his human pet are capable individuals.
I’d love to see an update on this guy in a later video!!
