@@ethanm2376 I never know which word to use: 'owner', 'dad', 'master', 'partner'.... For me, I am my dog's adventure partner, best friend, family. I guess, if you pointed to me and asked my dog "Who is that?", my dog would say "That's my mom." It's hard to label that special bond between a dog and his human. In any case, I can see that you two have that bond; and you are lucky, blessed, to have each other.

[@mannycalavera2335]

@@MB-lf8rm I can see how some people feel that "owner" or "master" sounds uncaring and unloving. But at the same time, I think those are good names that you should feel free to embrace. Ownership means you have to take care and look after your dog. Being its master comes with a structure and discipline that you need to provide. There is nothing wrong with embracing those responsibilities and labeling them in that way. I think saying you are the "mom/dad" also indicates that you take on those responsibilities. It just sounds a lot nicer because it also implies a caring relationship. But I never like it when people say their dog is just their "friend". When you think about it, "friend" does not signify any responsibility or obligation. It also gives the idea that you have a similar or equal role in the relationship. I think that mentally, that is entirely the wrong way to approach the relationship with your dog. To me there is a key difference between those mindsets. After you have taken on the responsibility as owner, master, parental figure, guide, mentor or whatever you want to call it, you can then be as loving, friendly, companionable and caring with your dog as is humanly possible. But being the latter without the former is what leads to a lot of issues with dogs.

You really have an incredible level of teaching. You might not physically see the appreciation and the positive impact you’ve made on our lives but just know it’s there. (And what I like most about you is that you’re NOT using e-collars etc. Maybe useful tools for some, but it just doesn’t feel right to me personally)

[@sportysbusiness]

People put all ecollar training in the same bracket. But like ANY tool, you can use it well, or poorly. I have a GSP who can get so involved in a scent she is oblivious to anything around her. Me, other dogs, food. I've seen her so absorbed on a rabbit scent that she didn't see or hear the rabbit run under her legs and down the trail behind her!!! Without the collar, I cannot guarantee to get her back as I live surrounded by thick bush and plenty of wild animals and interesting smells. With the collar, I just need to vibrate it to get her attention. I've taught her that the vibrate means to look for me for instructions. It's allowed her complete freedom. I don't see the difference with giving a child a cell phone or pager.

[@kompac277]

@@sportysbusiness I unfortunately live in a country where e collar use is banned. So my Gsp runs of if I don’t pay attention all the time.

It’s so frustrating

[@pittymama4500]

I know that alot of people have negative views on ecollars but, in the last 10 years technology has come so far when it comes to e-collars. When properly trained with an e-collar a dog never has to feel stimulation even high enough for us to feel it on ourselves. But you can also choose to use non stimulation by sound or vibration. The vibration is no different than our cell phones vibrating but that sensation on the dog, stops them in their tracks! I don't think it's for every dog but I think there's some dogs that it can be magical for. And I certainly think that people should have to take some type of educational course on how to properly use them before they can buy one and I do not think that the stem should go up to 100... just because there are those jackasses in this world that will use it at that high of a level and it's just not necessary ever!

[@teresasimon7224]

I volunteered at the Humane Society for 7 years as a dog walker. NEVER put your hand into a dog fight. Use your feet. Seriously, your own dog may bite you. You can get hurt badly. Be safe all! Keep looking out for our 4 legged friends. Btw..we always adopt large adult dogs. We currently have a Doberman. She was shy/fearful and somewhat aggressive when we got her. She was also extremely underweight... only 48 pounds. After much love, patience and lots of training and positive re-enforcement, she is happy, healthy and confident. She's a blessing!

[@jimmyli5475]

Good point. Great work and experience as a dog walker. I am sure you are a great asset to those around you, especially to the doggies. All the best.

[@OctaviaBeirne-oi9xc]

Yup, NEVER put your hand between. As someone with 6 huskies, they can get pretty territorial at times over food bowls - and that can ultimately cause fights. If one of the dogs actually does go for the jugular though (which has only happened once) and actually gets a hold of the other dog, you lift the legs. It causes a natural jaw unlock as they know they either let go or fall face first - it's disorientating for them. But that's about all you can do even if you do have a good relationship with your dog. If you can't call them off, and can't trust them around other dogs get correctional training or re home them to someone who can. It's a difficult decision, but ultimately it'll be better for the dog in the long run.

[@tiffanylaqruis3721]

What the owner said clicked. He said that at the store there was another dog at the cash register and he sniffed the other dog's rear end, but the second the dog went to sniff his, he went full blown attack. When Prince was meeting Bubbles, he tried to sniff his rear, but Bubbles would stare intensely straight at Prince and move his rear away. Almost like if another dog sniffed his rear, the dog would know Bubble's dominance was just to cover up how submissive he really is. And he would only let stable dogs really know his true self because he doesn't want to be picked on in a bad way. If Prince wasn't a very stable dog, that 100% would have been an attack. But, because Prince took cues well and avoided eye contact, that didn't happen. Bubbles just has to learn to be ok with other dogs sniffing his rear. But that was so insanely weird the switch that happened when Bubble saw that Prince was accepted by the owner. I have never seen that kind of turn around. So cool to see. I also looked back to 7:40 when Bubbles met the black lab. And he should have been given a snap correction for the tense stare. That whole 3 seconds was a warning. "Back off and give me space". The lab was in his face much longer than he could take. The lab wasn't taking the subtle cue of the stare and doing look aways like prince did. In those 3 seconds, the dog then proceeds to bring her head up for just a second and then lower to continue on to sniff his rear and that is exactly when he goes off. First, he needs to be around dogs like Prince bc he doesn't give eye contact back and is really good at reading super subtle cues. While he meets dogs like prince, you could correct him on those stares and and tense energy. Also, i would suggest to hold him by his rear so he can get used to other dogs sniffing him. Or at least distract him with something so the other dog gets to sniff him. I don't usually use treats, and i'm not even sure bubbles would even take his eyes off the dog for a treat, but still worth a try so he can associate other dogs sniffing his rear to something good and that nothing will happen and also to keep him distracted. But still, it's a long shot. Sometimes it's just better to be straight forward with dog reactivity.

Thank you. This is fantastic! We rescued a little mix breed with a lot of wild Dingo and Australian cattle dog who had been caged for a long period. He was 1 year and 8 months, totally hyper excitable with no training or social skills. I have been bingewatching this channel for 3 months solid and in the last week our dog has finally been able to come off leash in the dog park safely with really good recall. Today he did some crazy play with another young dog and they jumped and mouthed each other and took turns at laying belly up submissively but we could pause him a few times. All thanks to Joel and staff. We have learnt everything from this channel. A few weeks after we took him home from RSPCA we attended the RSPCA obedience training course but gave up after 1 lesson as the dog was so crazed with excitement at seeing the other dogs he was uncontrollable. The trainers response was to give him copious amounts of treats! I said to her, surely you cant reward bad behaviour like that? However she agreed the training was too much for him. I never returned to formal training but employed Joel's methods religiously. I bought a gentle leader and muzzle but never used either. Thank you again Joel and team from me and my little dingo dog in Australia!

I think I know Bubble's thought process: Dogs through the fence and those who are pet by his owner are not threats - the dogs through the fence are behind a barrier, but those pet by the owner are showing they have no interest in harming them. Having a dog who hasn't associated with the owner or isn't blocked by a barrier might have made him fearful of the dog's potential temperament. That's what I got from it anyway.

[@dogsfromthecity]

I wouldn't blame the e-collar for this behavior, but the inproper use of it. Even if the owner hasn't mentioned the e-collar, the way he behaves does look like insecurity /dominance. And maybe e-collar worked on some things, but haven't dealt with the main issue, too. But that being said, feels like e-collar was used incorrectly and the dog wasn't proofed properly. For example, when Bubbles was sniffing, probably the e-collar was used at that moment, making him more tense. So probably he was supposed to be conditioned to a recall whenever he over sniffs a dog, but it was used more as a correction and what the dog registered was that dogs that he feels very curious about could be dangerous.

[@KellysGarden]

Yes. I also have a border collie mix who was attacked a couple times at a very young age and has been cautious and reactive towards dogs since. No e-collar traing. I think that has more to do with this dogs reactions than anything. You can see in his body language that he is on guard as soon as he sees another dog. Mine is the same way, but doesn't attack. Just stiff and staring and cautious. she's actually ultra submissive when she actually meets dogs. So it's not dominance. It's fear/caution. We get accused of undersocializing all the time too. But she only acts unsocialized because she's cautious and defensive

[@MsNoPixel]

As a dog trainer myself I always laugh when people say dogs are unpredictable because animals give you MANY signs as to why they act before they act, many people either don’t notice or the event happens way too fast for them to even realize the dog gave any signs. You could tell with the first dog that Bubbles at the fence was a bit fearful & on edge, he was curious when the black lab was quiet but as soon as the black lab started squealing he wanted no part. Bubbles seems to also not focus on his owner nearly as much as he should, a good tip would be for the own to practice eye contact training with Bubbles, it helps with most things but especially when dogs start getting to that panicky off the handle red zone because it gives them something to focus on & that something is someone they trust that makes them feel safe therefore it typically helps calm a dog down.

[@winglessfairy564]

Or people just don’t know about the signs. It isn’t always obvious to people what certain signs mean. Like how a tail wag automatically means a dog is happy, when it’s not the case

[@shannon2228]

[@jamestwaddle6292]

I think this is the channel that kept me from collar training. Yea maybe it can work but I don’t want to take a chance.

[@carolewhite4427]

Great video, really interesting...looking forward to part 2

"Dude! That's a lotta water, Man" 🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾❤️ Awesome client I could tell right away he watched ur vids!! I would love to have some slo-mo moments in there for example I had to watch 3 times the segment to finally see they both playbowed at the same time. Also at the gate I think it would be good to explain again the body language specific like "Dog looks bad cuz stiff body, high-held unwagging tail, ears forward" I just knew cuz ur other vids but it might be good to explain in case it's somebody's first time watching. Anyway, u fantastic!!! Thank you for opening ur mind so we can see how u think about all these things🤗🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾❤️

Prince: what’s up Bruh Bubbles: man get away from me Prince: oh ok …..(goes away) Bubbles stares at Prince Prince: why you watching me then….. Bubbles: hey wait my dad thinks your cool? Ok let’s play!!!

Lol true

My dog is actually similar to this one. But with mine I noticed that different energies from the other dogs created different reactions in mine. Like my sister’s indifferent small dog created no reaction in mine while my friend’s excited German shepherd created defense charging and snapping from my dog. And I notice my dog has some boundary frustration/leash reactivity too. I enjoy seeing these videos to see ways to handle these problems

[@ApbtThailandKennel]

That dog just needed to realize he’s not going to get shocked anymore, petting prince gave him confirmation above all the other work done, that there wouldn’t be a shock.

[@vikingdogmanship]

He "accepted" prince because he wasnt excited

[@sparks2378]

Prince with the water 😂 😂 😂

[@lailajones7596]

Prince is absolutely awesome ❤️❤️

[@jefftan3268]

been watching all your videos and SUPER helpful, thank you! your training has gotten our foster pitbull in excellent shape and successfully off to a new loving family. however, our own dogs are more an issue--8yo french bulldog who has IVDD (was paralyzed for 2wks a year ago) is very reactive and aggressive towards other dogs. how do we do correction if we can't use corrective leashes due to his medical condition? thanks!

[@civedm]

Not going to lie but I clapped when Bubbles started playing with prince. What a moment.

[@mildchaos6037]

This episode is basically “Ah man, you cool with my Dad? We chill bro, let’s play”

[@bluespagirl1]

Prince is a *gorgeous* specimen!

[@anneo.8195]

what a cliffhanger! Can't wait for part 2!

[@m0nk3ymadness]

I need the part 2!!

[@DD-sw1dd]

That’s wild. I’ve never seen that before. A 180 caused by the owner petting the other dog.

[@saraarmstrong434]

I think the slamming of the gate caused the first fight as he’s already an anxious dog

[@mattgraves3709]

I've spoken on your other video about my big Irish wolfhound Remus. Same we have a little pitbut he doesn't mind at all loves him same our females

[@beautyglow8368]

Joel, thank you for this video! My bc intact male is totally alike in behaviour to Bubbles, he has been also attacked, he is also mostly good through fences, he is also behaving defencevely and switches from I don't like you,stay away to i will kill you in a milseconds.. never used the e-colar/shock collar on him or similar aids. He grew up around a beautiful bunch of dogs ( mainly males), and from what i see now and how he behaves with males, it's the intact males, or dogs who are staring at him..such as pugs, Frenchie etc.. he just go for them immediately... So i am so greatfull for this video.and the following parts too! Since he switched, he mainly plays with females, and neutered males who doesn't provoke him.. but i am absorbing every single word you say and move you do and hope one day we will get to the point when he will tolerate them without reacting.. he is a marker too 😅. Good luck to Bubbles! He is so lucky that he had the chance to meet you and the great pups there! Wishing everyone with reactive dogs the luck of Bubbles! 🤞🙂
