All bluff, he never intended to bite him. Had his chance a couple times never took it.

He's definitely not fearless! He is experienced and knows what to do and how to act. Knowledge+experience. Don't try to make him into something not human. If he had been "fearless", he would have went in without the shield and noose...which would have been foolhardy (and stupid).

Yes he is! Most people would just have the dog put to sleep! Thanks to the owner for giving this dog to a trainer who has the heart and capabilities to deal with this animal's problem!

Good job on a very nice dog.

​​@@WebShaman01he is fearless. He has experience and can read body language better than most, but he is still human acting on what he *thinks* is better, doesn't mean it will turn out like all the other past times. No dog is the same. A lot of dog trainers are indeed fearful of dogs like this despite their experience. So fearless nevertheless

Look, I work with dogs in military security areas. Believe me when I say those people are not fearless! That would make them namely inhuman (re: not human, which they most certainly are!). You and yours are doing them a great disservice by insisting that they are "fearless", instead of recognizing their experience and training. I've seen dogs that are so far gone that they have had to be put down from a distance (because no-one would go near them. NOONE). So just stop when you all are behind@@mel999.

All these comments are understatements....

Wait til there is no water no electricity and no gas, some humans will turn into beasts too. JK

They love to be told what to do, it's amazing how people let them fail so easily. Shep's are born to obey, it's in their genetics!

Fix 'R Up Chevy my husband and I are having this exact same discussion. I’m trying to show him how to walk our rescue GSD so that she understands who is in charge. She will not walk right for him at all. For me she does what I tell her and after a few timed corrections she walks great on a leash. But I keep having to retrain her each time I walk her because he walks her incorrectly

I agree on this... GSDs are a breed that consistently needs to work. You need to lead them... If they are lead correctly, they are simply an amazing dog.

@@cschwehr amen💗😎😉you're rite

I have done this with all of my dogs too, regardless of breed. I always have little ones coming over and they pretty much always end up at the dogs bowl lol. So to ensure children were not bit during resource guarding, I do this. My 4 yo GSD has done this a few times with her beef bones and we take them away. Once she chills out, we return the bone (rewarding the chill behavior). They need correction sometimes just like growing children. They aren’t perfect.

I know this is an old comment, but I do this too. Both the hand in bowls (I sometimes leave a treat to give positive association) and I also shock myself on 3 every time before I put the e collar on my dog. I do it to remind myself it's not that bad and to test that the battery isn't dying. My husband laughs at me too. Without the collar she could never safely be off leash due to prey drive, it's an awesome device.

@JOHNNA GORDON🥩🥩 Most of us in these comments use stim or vibration collars~ stim uses electricity, but it is similar to a TENS unit like chiropractors use (although way less powerful). It feels more like being tickled than being shocked. I’ve tried stim on myself, up to nearly 40. My dogs working level is a 3, but we both prefer vibrations🤷🏼

This is the first time I've seen a video like this, very impressive and an eye opener.

Indeed my friens.. bec suddenly there will have tons of animmal expert criticism if he don't do that. Sigh bashers. Leave this good man alone.

There is a ton of misconception about eCollars and technology. People think you are cattle prodding and that is so not the case. Darn... With our dog who recently passed we had an e collar for two years before using it. It turned out to be way less stressful for the dog and for us ... and really we only corrected him a handful of times IN HIS LIFE! But people need a lot of reassurance and people need the training more than the dog does... (we have to learn to treat our dogs like dogs and not like people- and that doesn't mean we don't love them!)!

@Ann Gough There is definitely a time and place for clear, concise explanations, but ANY kind of TRIAGE is NOT the time nor the place!!! Just step way back and let the professionals do their jobs!!!

@@wolfygaming7222 I’d like to see u try a case like this lmao he knows how they react to eye contact and how to read what they’re feeling

@@wolfygaming7222 actually you often need to Do that to establish dominance. It also gives the animal a sense of Calm as they will follow you for the lead instead of running in circles as the lead themselves, so it’s actually the correct and best approach just saying.

Not necessarily. Disagreeing with a technique doesn't mean they wouldn't try other things.. and possibly discover a new one.

@@LadyBeritanavatarius Your answer is great. This is probably the most reasonable answer I have seen on KZfaq in a while. It is the realisation that it is not always "Them against us". I hope you're having a great day, because your answer made my day.

I have 40 years experience with dogs. This guy doesn’t have a clue. The whole Set up is abusive.

It’s not really abuse. But it works in the end even if it’s right or wrong the most you could do is make it your own job if you have experience

Not really. I would use positive reinforcement and lots of time and patience. I don't call it animal abuse, but I would certainly not let this dude near to any of my dogs. And when he put the e-collar on, I stopped to watch the video.

Yup I have used those collars and had it work very very well. But I've also had a rescue shepherd it would be a huge mistake to use it on.. And she was just as aggressive at first as the dog in the video, but for different reasons.. She attacked any person or dog or child that got near her, and it didn't take long to figure out it was from pure fear and she was simply trying to chase everything away from her before they could hurt her. This dog would work herself into a severe panic attack, shivering and all, if you simply clicked a clicker or clipped your fingernails where she could hear it. A remote collar would have destroyed her.. A few months of desensitization and confidence building and she has been an awesome dog ever since. Every dog and problem is different.

My white German Shepherd is the same age.

Romaine Kersting, yes?

No it shouldn't and his shirt says exactly what it says. No Bad Dogs...some owners are good and have bad dogs. Stop acting like u don't know this.

Maurandis Berger there aren’t bad dogs, the owner should’ve trained them properly or gotten them trained, that’s it.

Maurandis Berger you do realize dogs aren’t born “bad” they’re raised “bad” they learn everything from the owners.

Not true, some animals do come out different. Some are even born down syndrome...I raised Dobies with my dad for years and some dogs just can't get right. To each they own I'm not here to debate

Saying there are no bad dogs, just bas owners, is like saying there are no bad people, just bad parents There is truth to both but if course there are special cases

Glad it was helpful!

@@tomdavisofficialI left a post if you could read it that would be great as I'm talking to you. My Doggo is jumping on me and licking me all over but he has gotten aggressive with me. I heard one dog trainer said it's OK to put them on the dog I used to let my dog sleep on the bed one night when I came home My DOGGO was next to my wife. He was in my spot. I went to push him away and he bit me requiring stitches in the hospital. Another time I was laying on the floor and he got on top of me and put all of his weight upon me as I pushed him off, he went to attack me. Please read my other post I don't want to put this dog down he's loving he kisses me. He goes in my lap. He gets along well with other dogs, but he's very aggressive to people when I bring them outside, or if anyone comes to my house, and sometimes even becomes aggressive with myself. He loves my son even more than me and he's even bitten my son when he was on my sons bed. My son kissed his stomach and when he did so he bit his face very badly. In the previous post, I said what I've used a taser just for the sound it seems to be helping him he does not like the sound, and he immediately obeys. When he gets aggressive with me, I stand up right away. Give him verbal commands shout now and tell him to go to the kennel and he listens, but if I go to his kennel while he's locked in it, he tries to attack me through the kennel after I put him in. He's very hard to figure out they say it could be is genetic since he comes from the cordoba, fighting dog. in video and picture. Maybe you can give me a clue? He does not seem to be mentally troubled. share.icloud.com/photos/044iH7xCErpRUIamNSKCy_mzQ

@@tomdavisofficial same guy that left to the post my dog seems so loving I give him bones, everything nothing but love I've never abused him, but yet, sometimes he would turn on me

@@tomdavisofficial we used to bring him to a pet resort when he was younger and he has stayed there when we went on vacation because he's grown my dog Baron well let the handler take him to the kennel and put him inside. But God help them if they try to take him out my son while we were on vacation and had to come get Barron because he wouldn't let anybody take him out of the kennel. He wasn't always like that. I'm not sure why he's so aggressive.

@@tomdavisofficial I don't dare try to take his food from me as he will attack me, but when he was a puppy I used to put my hand in his dish, I did everything by the book I thought I wanted to train him that he can trust me around food, but as he matured as soon as he reached maturity, he became aggressive. He is not fixed by the way perhaps this is a reason too much testosterone? Like when you reach the age of three and his prime that's when he became more aggressive. He does listen to my verbal commands usually which is a good thing. It's just so strange how he is like a Dr. Jekyll, Mr. Hyde at times.

He prbably has PTSD if he was a rescue from a lab, if every tiem he comes out he would ge hurt thats a reminder so to try to bypas that is going to be reactive

Jahna Derr and for your average, everyday person that is exactly is what would need to happen. This dog could not be adopted by anyone but an seasoned professional. Luckily for this dog he has owners who are willing to get him to a trainer.

I don’t think any workers think they’re untrainable. It’s moreso the fact aggressive dogs need more work and are a greater risk for families with children and multi dog homes- and they dont have the space, time, or funds to care for these reactive dogs. They feel it would be better to give the open spots to friendly dogs who would fit better in more environments.

He saved this dog for sure. That was awesome 👍

Tom this a technique I learned years ago. When you walk up to his kennel and he jumps and snarls, just yawn and/or stretch. Then turn your back to him. Stand/sit by the kennel until he calms down. Continue this many times a day until he calms himself down. Good luck.

I have a dog like this at the shelter I work at. He has decided that my coworkers and I are his job to protect. He's also a young Shepard with hip dysplasia that will require surgery within the next few years (according to a vet's exam with xrays). Many people have been angry with us when we've denied their adoption applications for him because they have children. We're trying very hard to find the right home for him, because he wants to be a good dog. 💜

That is very common..

My dog is the same way to her house

I had to tie my bulldog up while I let other dogs in to pet all over me so he could see that they weren’t going to attack me or hurt me. He got crazy mad but soon he realized it and now he’s nice to other dogs

i guess some people always have to complain..even for beneficial things still they point fingers forgetting themselves along the way

That seems a rather sweeping assumption..

@Elaine Simons. wtf is wrong with you

where's the correlation? you really cant understand how someone would believe him intentionally causing a dog to be stressed and uncomfortable (even if it is to help and train him) could be abuse? are you dumb? have some empathy.

This is a silly correlation. oh my. haha

Yes must be highly stressful for the dog to be in constant alert. It’s sad

This is so true. He was sooooo freaked out. That is not a happy way for a dog to be in constantly.

@@RoseThistleArtworks I agree. This dog was probably a puppy when adopted, purchased...does not matter...no one corrected him.

Kind of like dog harnesses years ago suddenly became big and omg so much more humane than a collar 🙄 I like them for puppies for walking sitting training. They can't resist easily because of the body control. Also many more reasons. There are some dogs need one for life because they're more body touch responsive. Or just don't like things around their necks. The harness is a very helpful tool but people also be aware of their dogs because the harness might turn out to not be enough when they start getting bigger. Use a standard collar or prong if you want, or is necessary but don't refuse to just because you think it's inhumane. Do what's needed to control your dog or get rid of it. "You" applying to the owners.

Humans are Mamals, Mamals are animals. Humans are therefore animals. We just are so far away from such a thing that we think we are not.

We should all be so lucky. Maybe if/when our lives are in the hands of others we will learn more compassion for ALL lives than just our own.

AKC recognises the WGSD and the only thing they cannot do is in the breed ring. I've had judges tell me that it's too bad they aren't allowed in the breed ring, my WGSD were champions in structure, and temperment. movement. UKC said the same thing. I just coulden't get there. You need to look up the history of these dogs. There were white shepherds at the beginning of the breed and it was Hitler who banned them because he thought they were inferior. You need to find and read about this wonderful breed. I have had them for years along with Czech bred dogs. My first Assistant Service dogs were the best at every thing. Tom is a great trainer and behaviorist and I have used his methods sporadically in the past. Tom, keep up the good work.

Those who say this is dog abuse are the very same people who create dogs with these issues. To many think its "cute" when someone, family member or friend approaches either to give a hug to the owner or just come for a visit goes nuts barking and carrying on the whole time. Later they wonder why fido acts like it does all the time. Seen it too many times with the excuses ranging from, he's just protecting me, or well, that's just what dogs do..... It's the owners 99% of the time who are in need of training. This is a gorgeous German Shepherd. Have had Shepherds before and miss not having one right now. I'd love to have been the one to give him a forever home.

There is always a reason for their actions it's just weather or not we understand what they are having issues with.

Working in rescue anything that I tried to do to correct a behavior was always met negatively even if the dog showed positive results. The only time it wasn't like that is when I fostered and I was able to correct behavior behind closed doors. I have never abused a dog but I have corrected them.

Thanks for watching!! Appreciate it! ❤️🐶

My dog does this when someone comes to the door, he wants to chew your head off....as soon as the door is open he's fine....(shep husky mix)....He's from a shelter and absolutely loves children....

Actually, I have a german shepherd hound mix and she plays like that with my partner. She never bites him but she can sound really ugly like that. But he’s trained her that if he snaps his fingers she shakes all the worked up tension and becomes docile towards him. German Shepherds are really smart they just want to obey but you have to be dominant with them because they’re run right over you if you don’t show authority. I had to learn to be more authoritative with this canine child I have. She was a terror when she was a puppy. We would have vocal fights and she would jump up and tear at me. Now she’s my best friend and we’re always together. But it was not like that in the beginning.

My 4 Siberian Huskies does that when they steal from each other. A chew bone for example. They always stop when I come over and take the bone in order to stop the fight. Huskies don’t like when other dogs steals their food. Other than that they are very people happy. Sure they howl and growl when visitors come. But once I allow them inside then everything is fine... however I do not recommend people to enter my house without permission, cause then they get pissed. But then again no one should enter someone’s house without permission to begin with.

That kind of snarling is pretty common with hot blood shepherds like gsd, Mal's and dutchies. A lot of people have a hard time with getting them to chill. Takes a lot of work. People are usually not up to the task.

Yes! Our puppy doesn't resource guard food but she does with toys. She also is very timid of new ppl and dogs too so it seems to go together

@@erinnstothart9739 Take her out and run her socks off. THEN come home and work with her. Calm tired dogs do better at training time, usually. For timid, just ignore her in the presence of others and have them do the same. If she is ignored, she's much more likely to explore--if she comes forward, give a quiet 'yes' or 'good', and then let her do what she wants--no aggression or rudeness, but exploration is good. The other person(s) can say 'Oh, hi.' in a conversational tone and then just ignore her until a few times of this--she'll gain more confidence and tolerate being noticed without ducking for cover. As for the toys...as soon as she gets possessive, take it away--firmly and quietly, an immediate consequence....she gets nasty, toy disappears. Not a game, just a fact. She may not be able to have toys very much at first--but she'll learn. Patience and persistence are PRICELESS.

Me too like I have a “shock collar” for my dog but I haven’t touched the shock once I use the vibration and beep

Train the dog in front of you. I have a dog that can't work off a vibration, stresses out and shuts down.

It depends on the dog. For my dog, the vibration is a bigger correction then the stim of an ecollar. Vibrations can work in extreme cases because it can be pretty intense for dogs. Every dog is different and should be trained on a case by case basis!

Tom says: most of the dogs find the trim (on a very low level) much less uncomfortable than the vibrate. I guess it also depends on wich collar system you use. Those Dogtra ones he uses have 127 levels of intensity for the stim. Most people dont feel it before level 15. De dog mostly acts on a level 5. Really want to try it out myself. But cant buy his 280c in NL just yet.

He effectively took possession of the gate. He claimed it and the dog backed down. If the dog were truly hostile (against humans) it would not have mattered and the dog would have attacked regardless. This shows that the dog is not as hostile as it sounds. Once the resource it was guarding is 'lost' the behavior changed. I've seen similar behavior during playtime with my two dogs.. not hostility but.. for example.. throw a toy and the smaller female loves to fetch it and bring it back. However, if her larger male brother goes after the toy she will relent and let him have it. She used to not do this until one time they both went after the toy at the same time.. collided mid-air and sent her spawling. Similar behavior thusly produce.. the toy/play are the resource for both of the dogs.. but altho she is most interested in the play/toy.. once he gets involved she will step back. I actually have to make them take turns once he gets interested or else she will never get to play lol.

@@uoabigaillevey I was about to comment something very similar. Dog is definitely not truly aggressive.
