This is why I use Mastiff for civilian protection work. Those high-drive dogs are too high strung for most people. Civilians generally don't need all that crazy energy. I like a dog that likes to sit and watch a movie!

My two pups (12wk Cavapoo 4 lbs and a 14 wk Cavachon 6lbs) frequently bite each other on ears, tails and now all over when allowed to play together in play room. Toys don't help. The yelps don't curb the behavior. What is normal and what is not? When should I separate them and how to ensure the behavior does not develop into aggressiveness?

We adopted an 18 month female goldendoodle, 33 lbs. Six months later, we adopted two puppies, now 12wk Cavapoo 4 lbs and a 14 wk Cavachon 6lbs. We attempted to introduce the golden to the pups after a month of her observing them play from another rm and sniffing them while on our laps. On a leash, the golden chases, swats, nips and tries to stomp the pups. She is typically shy and fearful with other dogs. She seems to want to play but more often shows dominating versus playful behavior with the pups. She tries to get in their exercise pen and they are the only reason she barks in the house now. While they are on my lap or in their crates she calmly lays next to them. We will wait until the pups are larger and closer to six months old to try again but what to do then so eventually they can safely co-exist and play together?

As a former vet tech I can tell you I have seen testicles that were left in get HUGE, they go cancerous, etc. I am sure their vet already told them to get that thing out of there.

ill bet money poop-poop time will be shortly. thanks for sharing!

My german shepherd puppy started barking at little kids and dogs that are smaller than him before all of this he was really scared of all the dogs even little poodles but now he has lost his fear he barks at big dogs that will have him for breakfast he's friendly with grown people but if he sees a little kid he will start barking i don't know how to handle this anymore I'm not understanding his behavior i think he's trying to bully little kids and other peoples dogs.

wow that is amazing. Much Respect

I can't believe these videos don't get more views. Unbelievable. Great stuff. Thanks Ed!

great video thank you❤

Prior to the free shape heeling, did this start with luring the prior weeks? A good way to start fading the lure.

If I had this issue I would train with nitrile gloves and wet tissues at hand. I saw professional trainers using different types of gloves or taping to spare their fingers. I own the old " The power of training dogs with food", happy to hear the core informations are the same in the new version!

Eating from your hand is bonding with your Dog. If someone thinks it's yuck not sure why they have a dog in first place.

Suggestion? If it's a yucky thing, couldn't they use deerskin gloves during training? These gloves are thin enough that you can handle the food easily. They are also tough enough that most of the time them doggie teeth can't get through them. Not always lol but mostly. Plus no slobber on your hands. Would you think this is a good idea, or no?

Teach the dog how to catch the treat . . . One of the ways I taught my dog to take a treat.

This is so helpful, thank you, good confirmation that Im on the right track with re-integrating my 2 girls after their 3rd fight since owning them 2.5yrs

Medium size chuckit, and Amazon lacrosse balls ftw. Tennis balls die in minutes with a GSD....

If you are not willing to be chewed on you definitely do not want a heeler.

I can’t find any 2 inch leather collars from leerburg. Do y’all sell 2 inch leather collars for big dogs?

If you are young, active, fit, have a bunch of kids ready to play in the house, and lots of free time, that may work. It is dangerous to have "fashion" or trend dogs, because too many people don't know what they are going into. The poor dog gets abandoned or mistreated. I had 3 German shepherd dogs, and now I have two terriers, now older, and I am considering a very calm good guardian dog such as a standard Schnauzer. Age is a big factor in adopting a dog.

No! do not spayed. Just be responsible during those heat times. A good diet will not cause cancers. Those dry dog foods cause it.

Why do Americans have Australian cattle dogs to start with.

Sooo… ultimately, your dogs spend how much time in their crates? So they ever “graduate “ out of life in the crate?

My dog has had a doggie door since he was 2 years old. It was the best thing for him.

As a new dog owner, my pup is 4 now 😅, the one thing I would advise ppl is to make the dog earn its freedom. I never used a house line, but I crate trained and later I used gates to keep the dog in one area until I knew he would be fine with more freedom.

Yeah

Wow...my Mentor taught me 10 years ago to hand feed. This video gave me assurance because I have never heard any expert talk about this step.

When I comes to training, breeding and feeding I take note how nature duz things

How do you maintain contact heeling with far away distractions? I know contact with food and toy rewards but Not with outer distractions?

Thank you for the answer! I just thought, "what a relevant video for me", then realized that this was my question :-) Both Cindy's answer as well as the additional context in the video help immensely!

I'm living in Manhattan, NYC. I noticed that my dog ( male Cane Corso ) becomes a less reactive or scattered mind in very very busy situations because there are just way too many things to single out to focus on. So he has tendency to use me as a guide in such a situation which he stays in tune with me more than while we are in less busy situations.

Awesome Tips Thank you

They must be bad dog owners or never take the time to train their dogs because I have a pit and a boxer not once they get aggressive towards each other. Yes, maybe toward other dogs 100% but not towards each other.

My dog loves her crates. Until I leave the room. Then fear response. Apparently gundogs are prone to separation anxiety. But her recall has been amazing lol. Off lead at 3 months.

Just tell your guests to ignore the dog until they calm down. No eye contact and no touching.

The "animal rights" trainers (and I'm a PETA supporter, incidentally) that you speak of, are the same people who allow their kids and grandkids to: run wild in stores, disrupt the peace in restaurants, throw tantrums and get rewarded for such behavior, AND run up to your dog, unchecked, when it's in a car or on a leash. They and folks like them are the reason no one is allowed to speak sternly to their children in public anymore without a court order for anger management.

People like that aggravate the hell out of me they get them because they look cool they do no research then the poor dog ends up in a shelter

Love your video! Im a new fan and subscriber.

Great topic. I use raw soup bones, raw turkey necks and bully sticks. Never had an issue with any of those.

We tried rawhide chews with our dog because we were trying to find a lower cost alternative to bully sticks. Our dog is one year old wl gsd and she's a power chewer. She got big chunks of the rawhide apart and would swallow them and omg, I was SO worried she'd choke. We threw the rest of that package of rawhide away. We have been getting our dog bully sticks since she was a teething puppy. We went right into the full sized ones from Costco. She goes through one in about an hour and she gets one almost every day. We try to alternate between those and pig ears, but she likes bully sticks best. There's no way around it, they are superior to other edible chews. If I still had horses, I'd let my pup chew horse hooves on shoeing day 😊. But we don't 😢. I also like the Playology non-edible chew toys. The bone toys in peanut butter and beef flavor are good and very durable. They last for 6 months before the scent wears off. And my dog has never destroyed them, which is unusual for a dedicated chew toy.

Always use a backup but not this one that is a neck collar and I have a Rottweiler 100 Lbs and some how it gets out so I would go with a carabiner screw

My 35 lb American bull pit did great with some rawhide braids for a long time, one stick lasts a couple days. The 50 lb cattahoula pit devours them in 15 minutes. I need safe chews.

I would have to go out of retirement to afford bully sticks.

What about your Mali Do you not have him anymore? I forgot his name. Possibly his name was Rush.

Great tips..can you ship to Europe?
