No one could touch this "aggressive" shelter dog until one woman came along with lots of patience and chicken nuggets 🥰❤️

Such a clear example of how fear is so often at the root of aggression in animals (including humans), and how, with patience, understanding, compassion (and, sometimes, chicken nuggets!), it can be overcome to reveal a beautiful, affectionate and joyful being.
Beautifully said!
In humans its usually emotional pain, neglect during childhood, of course trauma (you mentioned), hormonal imbalance, poor diet, mental illness etc.
@@katieb3059 Of course, there are many and complex reasons for aggressive behaviour. I don't mean to over-simplify the pathology - and the role of trauma or poor health - in anti-social behaviours in animals or humans (that's a whole other discussion!). The primary point I was making is that the probability of fear being the source of aggression is often overlooked.
@@sinistral9629 i wasn't trying to correct your previous comment, just to add/name other possible reasons. I think it's known that traumatized dogs fear humans (rightfully so). Problem always has been that there weren't enough patient people with free time to work with these poor dogs.
That is correct- most dogs are aggressive because there was something bad going on in the past, and things they don't understand going on now. Also health problems, it's important that dogs get medical treatment for illness and pain. Huge majority of dogs can be turned around with good health treatment and the right dog person. Dog experts agree on this.
Ah wow, that's incredible. So scared, yet so desperate to be loved
Like so many humans...
A lovely story. If only we all had the patience to see the good in every living animal.
Now she's ready to begin life and start all over again in love.
Who, the dog or the trainer?
and to love
It saddens me to imagine what this poor girl might have endured to make her so fearful that she felt she had to be "aggressive" to defend herself. But it always makes me happy that there are caring people out there who take the time to give dogs like these the chance to learn to trust humans again. So glad this girl found the loving forever home she deserved from the start.
Hello how are you doing today
Yes, you make such an astute observation, and I think that is exactly right - she must have gone through something quite serious to make her so fearful that she felt she had to be "aggressive" to defend herself. God bless that sweet baby's heart, and God bless these wonderful people for helping her. 💜🙏
I experienced the same behavior with my adopted Malinois. This kind of behavior in them is mostly from lack of socialization.
it's the same with cats who hiss or lash out. It's a fear response and never something evil. Every pet derserves to be treated with kindness, love and respect.
she might not necessarily have ever endured anything bad, bad socialization and bad genetics can cause this
53 yr. old veteran here.... I have tears streaming down my face. God Bless these folks.
I agree an 200 %..bless you folks!! You make this world a better place!
Did you see what was on the floor of the Kennel?
ain’t that the truth brother
This woman is doing EXACTLY what she was meant to in this life.
That puppy just wants all the love she can get
Watching this makes me happy and sad at the same time, knowing that there are animals out there who will never get these opportunities.
Truly upsetting 😢
Everytime a video of this channel. Heart is breaking and then heart is crying for joy when they got sooo much more happier
Because kill shelters are murderers. Without humans that wouldn't be an issue would it?
You’ve certainly worked your magic with this beautiful creature ❤
That's entirely because humans in many of their fake shelters like to euthanize them.
99% of “aggressive” behaviour is fear
Thanks for adopting this precious dog 🐕❤
How this Belgian got to the point of fear aggression is mind boggling. they are one of the most loyal fearless protectors and friends of humans, Not hard to see why many professional forces uses the breed in law enforcement and military. They are also very intelligent. Reasoning the way her barriers was broken down just by the simple act of love, something she craved for. Thank you for including us in her journey to her happy ever after.
Looks like both genetic and environment. Could be a very bad environment coupled with the fact that the breeders could be breeding dogs who are more skittish and snappy. And together, you get a dog like this.
@@blenderpain8249that malawa has to get over the owner that dumped it
@@Tkidddd Unfortunately that's not how it works. She's a dog, she doesn't have the capacity to understand.
@@blenderpain8249 unfortunately she does and that's the problem
@@Tkidddd Dude, how do you tell a dog to "get over it"? It's a dog.
I wish more people could read dogs well enough to know the difference between real fear and real aggression. Especially with the Belgian Malinois in this case that desperately needs socialization instead of being locked in a kennel. As soon as they bond with you, it's forever. Their loyalty is limitless. I love this video.
Belgian malinois are super loyal and affectionate doggies..
I'll never tire seeing a breakthrough with an animal that's lived in fear or abuse or whatever their situation. Just goes to show how with love and patience most can overcome the situation they've been put in.
What a great turn-around!
God bless this lady for her patience, love and care for this dog. She literally saved its life.
Hats off to the young lady who was able to socialize this pup. Take a minute to think about the effort and then turn this wonderful soul over to someone else. It has to be tough to let go.
her face when being adopted.... just pure happiness!! she's just made my day!
There are no bad dogs. Just bad owners. I love dogs 🐕❤. Be well and safe and happy sweet dog ❤❤❤❤❤
Well done saving a precious life that just needed some help healing and overcoming fear.
Fear aggression is something that can be addressed, as noted in this excellent piece
Yes! ❤
You know it never occurred to me that women like this could help so many dogs by helping them get adopted. It makes so much sense, she's a dog therapist, which is what they need along with a loving home. Not every willing adopter will have the skills to heal a dog like this even if they want to. Very inspiring.
Thank you so much for not giving up on this dog. Wonderful how proud she looked with her new owners. And now i want chicken nuggets.
Patience and love are a dogs best friend 💯 Thanks to everyone involved and for showcasing this beautiful story 💙🐕
''Patience and love are a dogs best friend'' Not necessarily. It only works on dogs with fear based aggression, not with dogs with on the prowl, born aggression.
Investing is a stepping stone to success, investing is what create wealth. BTC is the key
As someone who has had a fear of dogs my whole life watching these kind of stories really inspires me to try to heal my relationship with the canine folk. ❤
why not volunteer as a dog walker for a dog shelter
@@Ania-qb3ot that’s a really good idea! 👍
Dogs are proof that Angels are real.
Sahari, you're the absolutely perfect kind of dog trainer- the choice of food to begin building trust, the words you used, the calmness you created, and your little bits of laughter. I wish more people who work with dogs would use your method.
Hello
What a beautiful dog! Someone did her badly to produce so much fear. Great job bringing her back to her real self. Long life and happiness to her and her new family.
Such a beautiful animal. Thanks for making her feel like a beloved dog again.
What a beautiful puppy. So cool to see her loved, rather than just discarded because she wasn't easy.
This Belgian girl is beautiful, I hope she gets the life she deserves a life full of love and security!
When I was 13 years old me and my mom were walking home and a mugger came up to us with a knife and all the sudden a stray pitbull rescued us and we took him to the vet and found out he was micro chiped to an illegal dog fighting area so we adopted him and every one told us he was aggressive but he was the sweetest boy, he was so gentle with humans and other animals (and people say pitbulls are aggressive)❤❤❤
What a wonderful story...the pittie who rescued you and your Mom was destined to be wit you...🥰
I've been around pitties for a long time and have yet to find an aggressive one. It's how they are raised. If you raise one with love, they love you back. My neighbor used to have one that we nick named Houdini because he was an escape artist. One time he got out of his yard without his owner noticing and I was coming home from school. I saw Houdini wandering around and my friends said to not go near it its a pit bull. I showed them, I got down to a knee and called him over and he let me pet him and rub his belly, my friends were astounded. I took him back home to his house and my neighbor was happy it ended that way and not animal control being called for a wandering pitbull.
@@kylederry5031 than you haven’t been around enough pits plan and simple.. That’s probably the dumbest take ever when clear evidence of pits being aggressive have been produced for over 50 years. It’s more that you’re deliberately being delusional. I had one that was the sweetest dog ever and one day he attacked a whole pack of dogs just to be the big dog on the street. Had to put him down cause he killed 4 other dogs and mangled the other two..
@@Bam_Bam_Bam_Bam that sucks for you
What a beautiful ending to this story. Huge shout out to this woman who actually took the time to work with her and show her the love and patience she needed. We need more people like her in this world.
Please never give up on aggressive dogs, they're just scared and desperately wanna learn to trust people again and be loved. Thank you guys for giving this beautiful dog a second chance and for adopting her ❤
We need more people who know the difference between aggressive behavior and just plain fear! I'm so glad that this fur baby has the chance to show her true self.
Poor thing! Our dog was exactly like that. A German Shepherd K-9 unit who was removed from her handler due to abuse. She went from snarling & gnashing teeth to the most perfect lovey dovey guard dog. RIP Duchess.
What a wonderful story to start a day with.
What an amazing story! You are precious women! Keep doing what you are doing xx
Lovely story. 💕
Amazing dedication on her part. Because of her patience, she saved that dogs life.
Hand feeding is so pure, such a tiny gesture means everything to them. I fed my dogs from the hand on occasion the bond they feel with you is irreplaceable.
She is a Belgien shepherd. The breed is called Malinois in French and Mechelse Herder in Dutch. They in fact tend to be aggressive and here in Europe they are mainly used as police dogs or for similar use. They are super kind with their family but difficult to handle with unknown persons.
She's a Belgian. Malinois. I have one that I'm raising. My gosh, they have these incredible personalities. And they are EXTREMELY INTELLIGENT. Make no mistake. They're tactical dogs for a reason. They have a huge prey drive and because of that combination they are very easy to train. This girl felt the vibe of the trainer and her sincere want for this beautiful girl. It's awesome to see how amazing she turned out. Best wishes for y'all 😊
She's not. She's a GSD, and if you had one you'd know the difference in the way they look. And they're not that intelligent or tactical either, that's GSDs too.
They shouldn't have a prey drive. They are not a hunting breed.
Thank you to the lady that spent time with her. The dog knew you were kind and special. God bless you.
*Sahari, you embody the epitome of a dog trainer-your adept selection of food, choice of words, serene demeanor, and sprinkles of laughter all contribute to building trust effortlessly. I earnestly hope that more individuals within the dog training community adopt your exceptional methodology*
I work with animals in need of adoption and I always tel new, potential pet parents that they may be scared or shy but you would also be if you went through what they have been through! Give them time and their personality will blossom ❤
She is BEAUTIFUL!
I love Belgian Shepherds so much. In fact, I own one!!! Super smart too.
Dogs like her just needs someone with patience! She was fearful and this lady took the time to develop a bond & the dog associated her with good things as food and comfort.
Malenois are so smart too! She's just beautiful and will be an amazing addition to an active family!❤
Pinned up energy. She is a Mallinois. They need 2-4 hours a day of rigorous activity. Great patience, love, and perseverance! Happy New Year. Keep up the graceful work.🙂
I'm gonna cry!! That big smile in her adoption photo...I can't :( I'm so happy a loving couple took her in as their new fur daughter ♥may she have a long, loving life filled with treats and lots of playtime ♥
This dog had so much love to give hidden behind her wall of fear. She's really adorable. You've done a great job Sahari 👍
Good job when a dog wins we all win
Love and kindness conquers all proof is there for all to see 🙏🏻👏👏👏👏👏
800 miles, wow, what a dedication to this sweet girl. So glad that she found you and her forever home.
Mallionois are very sensitive and need careful and gentle handling. Whoever did this to this beautiful girl needs a good dose of the treatment they gave her! Im so glad she got her forever home ❤
57 year old man at 430 am choked up n crying. I worked at a no kill shelter where I too met a "vicious small female feist type" dog. One could barely put food n water in her kennel. 8 hrs a day at work, while taking care of 15 to 20 other dogs I managed with homemade beef jerky, in tidbits, had that dog as a necklace face to face. She had her legs wrapped around my neck. It took the jerky to have her be comfortable with other humans but less each time. Best job I ever had. Can't train very well unfortunately because I can't seem to stop the bonding and suddenly I feel like we are a couple. Several dogs in my life. Best memories of my life. Never married and could care less. Dogs are the key to so many mental issues. Fear of abandonedment. Addiction. Depression, the list could go on forever.
So glad you brought this up. It's fear. You can see in the approach run back. She even takes the nuggets softly right from your hand not aggressively. You are so good w animals. I think you love her too. You drove 800 miles & you all had a great field trip. Thanks for getting her to where she can have the happy life she deserves. I think she is lovely.
I got her tattooed on my arm. She will always be my baby too
This dog is a MASTER manipulator! I would give people menacing looks and threatening gestures if I knew it would prompt them to bribe me with food treats and fun trips to "behave" myself. I'll have to give that a try!
Good luck, let us know how it works for you!🤣
I got my first malinois two years ago and she is absolutely one of the most affectionate dogs I've ever had. Can't say enough about the breed. So happy to see her in a forever home. I'm trying to work through some similar issues with my dogs fear of certain strangers as well.
I wondered if this was a Malinois. Beautiful dog.
yeh it is@@adrienchandler4906
Is it true they need a minimum of 4 hours of exercise a day?
That’s a real working dog right there she just needed direction This lady is awesome for breaking her guard down 💪🏽💪🏽🖤🖤
Bless you from head to toe ❤
She is so beautiful. Thanks for taking the time to show how lovely she really is.
What a sweetheart! Its horrifying to think what must have happened to make her so frightened. Good job!
God bless you all for your love and compassion.
This touches my heart this is absolutely amazing amazing and heart warming how this dog went from being aggressive to sweet and play full I'm sure she is in a beautiful place now I hope other dogs out there find the one who makes them happy and puts brightness to their beautiful heart ☺❤
Oh my this brought me to tears ❤ thank you thank you so much for saving her life ❤
Most people never associate fear with aggression. I loved how she blossomed.
We have a cat which are more "convenient", but dogs are truly awesome. Wishing every shelter animal find their human soul mates!!
I'm actually so proud to see Sahari here! We went to UC Davis and I remember her being a passionate person about all animals. I'm glad she's still the same :)❤
2:52 How proud she looks! 💗
Thank you to all of you who helped her get over that sad fear!❤
I have 3 Malinios rescues. Your story is exactly the same with my 3. They are the BEST. But you better be ready to spend TONS of time. Between myself and a friend of my mine. We have rescued 9 Malinios. All with the same story.
Such a beautiful dog with a wonderful personality. Thank you for your patience and helping the dog to find a home.
Another example is these dogs are fearful in a shelter they just need some TLC ❤. Thank you for saving her !
They're mammals just like us. They go through so much. Just arriving at a shelter must be so scary from their point of view. Please give these animals the love, patience and kindness they desperately deserve. 💜.
Они этого не заслуживают! Они этого достойны БЕЗУСЛОВНО. просто тем, что они есть❤
I always remind myself that if I was thrown into jail without any reason after being traumatized, I know I would act much worse. In fact after my abusive dad died, I moved in with my grandparents (who were and still are the most stable people I know) and I was a terror for years until I turned 18 and something in my brain finally clicked after a couple near death experiences. No one should judge these animals for who they became in these environments. I understand that not everyone has the capabilities to find the true soul of every dog they meet at the kennel, but I wish their fear response to not become a death sentence.
Thank you for taking the time.
So amazing 😍 to see this beautifull fur soul to blossem and shine, you are amazing to help this dog to happiness ❤ and a loving 🥰 home 🏡 thank you so much. There should be more people like you, God bless you 🙌🙏
Had the same case with a "wild cat". Found putting my face close to hers would calm her instantly: I was putting myself in a vulnerable position so she knew she had nothing to fear ,(,wearing large glasses😂). After 3 years of "behavior reprogramming" she was the friendliest cat I have ever seen.
What a beautiful light this woman is in the world, to see through to the love in this dog and to save her. Bless this woman 😊❤
Last owner abused her so badly So this beautiful dog could not trust anyone or scared everybody. God bless she found new beautiful owner who does not abuse animals
Chicken nuggets are the gateway to love.
So many dogs and cats cannot tell you the horrors they have suffered often at the hands of humans. Aggression is usually a fear response. I'm so thankful they worked with this beautiful girl. God bless everyone who takes the time to show an animal love in their darkest hour.
Such a beautiful dog! Thank you for giving her the chance to shine
Thank you for saving her ❤
What a v special person you are. Well done. Awesome dog.
I got a rescue just like this. She wasn't as aggressive but if you even looked at her the wrong way, she'd pee in terror. After working with her for about a year, she became the most beautiful, happy go-lucky dog I've ever had the privilege of owning. I love rescues with all my heart.
Fantastic story! Wonderful couple working with her! This is the most inspiring video I've seen on Dodo, even more than the amazing people who rehabilitate special needs (injured/birth defects) animals. The magic seemed to happen very quickly with this expert trainer. Bravo!
Hello how are you doing
All mammals want to be safe and loved. Thank you for making it happen.
Thank you so much for your kind words and love ❤️
Hello how are you doing
Thank you for helping her. So many have been put down because no one took the time to work with them. I can't believe you had her outside playing in 3 days. I hope others can learn from you and save many more dogs the same way. You are Angels ❤
The change in this dog is so great, seeing her getting belly rubbs and enjoying her new life, thank you for all the work with these dogs, i hope he lives a long and happy life
Your channel is incredible! So many heartfelt stories about animals. This dog, like others of course, is so beautiful! I love my dogs more than words can explain. ❤ THANK YOU
It’s a Malinios. Beautiful.
Thank you for helping this beautiful girl shine ❤️
WHAT a transition!!! All she needed was love and patience to trust again...then she blossomed. What a beautiful girl. I'm so very happy for her in her forever home.❤
What a wonderful story with a happy end - thanks for sharing :-)
Well done, you saved a beautiful pup.
Well, I have opened the chopped onions again. Dogs are not inherently bad. And in shelters with so many other dogs barking it must be so scary and they do not know what to expect from one minute to another. I am so happy they put the work into just getting her to learn not all people are bad and the life they have led can become so much better. I have been looking into doing this sort of work myself. Love and respect we should always show to all living things. Thank you nugget lady!
I wish some people would give more dogs a chance and have patience with them when they are going through a difficult time as shown in this story. What may appear as aggression might just be fear or trauma and not necessarily the dog’s personality in every case. ❤
There are no bad dogs only bad people. Amen 🙏
