Learn how to let your reactive dog meet other dogs

This was perfect. Stopping aggression isn't a gentle process I wish more people realized that. Prince is such a great training dog too

People are so sensitive these days, I honestly don’t see anything wrong with how he is treating these dogs. Some people act like hitting the dogs with a belt.

The dog constantly looking back at the trainer when they started getting a little rowdy was pretty cute. He was trying to make sure he was okay playing and wasn't pushing it too far

"Yeah I'm yelling at the dog. He needs to be yelled at." YES!!! Finally somebody said it. It's true, especially if you have a large dog. Worked for me! Children end up fine after they get yelled at for doing something naughty. Dogs are the same way. People with the naughtiest dogs are the ones who coddle them all the time.

With how much analysis and correction goes into raising dogs, I am amazed at how many people own them. Power to everyone taking the time to learn their pet

This guy is spot on and says it like it is. I work with around 15 to 20 dogs a day and I totally agree, you can't allow your dog to harass or dominate other dogs. They need manners and know their boundaries. All dogs go through the 'teenage/adolescent stage' but owners have to be in top of it, guide them through it and keep well behaved.

Big strong dog owners have double the responsibility to stay on top of aggression. Always.

I was anxious all the way through this. But it was very helpful. My dog is a rescue. I have only had him a couple of weeks. He tries to dominate every dog he meets. This is really helpful.

Literally the type of dog trainer I would like to grow into one day. He doesn't sugar coat anything.

Love your no-nonsense attitude! Favorite part: "Yeah I yelled at him, he needed yelling at!" Reminded me of the time I gave my 5yr old female akita a verbal correction for ignoring a simple sit command that she's known since she was 8 weeks old (She was just being an akita, they never stop testing you). The border collie trainer standing next to me started lecturing me. "You scared her!!!" I said, "A-she's an akita . She's never been scared in her life. B-If she IS scared, GOOD!!! She's huge and she's strong and I'm a petite female. She better believe that ignoring me isn't an option EVER. She's known that command for 5yrs and she was ignoring me on purpose." Lady says "Dogs don't ignore us on purpose!" I said "Maybe border collies don't but akitas do. I promise ya that." I don't have anything against BCs but as someone who has had both working/guardian breeds AND herding breeds, there is simply no comparison. None. You let an akita ignore a sit command and see where you are next week. She's since passed of old age but that dog was awesome. While other people are saying how you can't have akitas in public or around other dogs etc, mine was going with me to horse shows every weekend and sharing a home with 5 other dogs (both genders, size range from chi to anatolian) and several cats plus sharing her yard with a herd of goats and pigs. Tell me again how my training doesn't work....

People need to accept the value of sometimes simply breaking a dog's attention with a shout.

I needed to see this. I wondered if I was the only one that yelled at my dog when I train 🤣

I rescued a reactive doberman. He is neutered but Watching this video, it resembles a lot of His energy when he meets dogs. I recently purchased a hard muzzle like yours in hopes that I'll be able to train him the way you just did!

THANK YOU for actually demonstrating what to do. No one actually shows it on video. They explain it, but that's not the same.

Prince is such a flipping sweetheart! The way he was initiating play was adorable, and you've genuinely done a great job training him! Wish I had a beautiful sweetheart like him! Your videos have made me fall in love with dogs again!

I’m happy to see your appropriate usage of a muzzle. I always tell my clients that socialization cannot happen in isolation. Most owners will just sequester their dog to a life in the house or backyard. At least with the muzzle on you can make sure no one gets injured. You can give the time to relax naturally and decompress the situation letting the dog work through it with your guidance. Training aids are just that, they provide specific assistance. People should be more open to using them. Nice talk through of the body language. Also folks at home you have to have a very neutral balanced dog to partner with for this kind of work.

So its true puppers are essentially just children that go through the stages of life way faster

Love watching your videos and hearing your in the moment commentary. It helps so much to understand your process and reasoning behind your techniques. This was a great video to see what to do at home, and thank you for answering the neutering issue. I’ve struggled with that one. You’re a SUPERB trainer! Thank you so much for these videos! 😁

people who know how to handle dogs know that this guy is definitely coming with the right approach! not sugar coating anything and being very upfront!

Such a great demonstration. This was tense to watch
