HOW TO USE LEVERAGE TO CONTROL POWERFUL DOGS.

Cane Corso goes at Prince. Learn leverage and how to get around other dogs

[@BT-ts4pb]

Thank you for not glamourizing 'protection' and explaining that this behaviour had nothing to do with keeping it's owner safe. I've been in Prince's situation several times, except in off leash parks -with no muzzle and a passive owner. People need to get it in their heads that these dogs are not a one way relationship where you get to feel safe in your house but make the world feel scared when you leave.

I’m sorry but that dog is so powerful I don’t see many others being able to control that amount of force. Our man Joel is a master at anticipation and that’s the key.

[@Anon_E_Muss]

You gotta pay attention to your dog if they're that reactive. Mine had been but I don't let him get the drop on me anymore and now he knows he can't get away with that behavior.

Then people shouldn't buy strong Dogs if they can't control them if they're weak themselves that is just playing stupidity. I once saw an Asian lady with an alaskan malamute, I believe the Mal weighed more than her, just a stupid person.

[@WhiskeysMoon1976]

What makes Joel able to do what he does with animals, besides his life experience around exotics too😊, isn't anticipation, Nor is it a keen eye, nope!.. In fact what he is is a Master of Animal Language! aka a "Linguist"...which means he is able to read & then even translate exactly what they're saying/thinking & on the fly I must add (which isn't an easy feat to accomplish for seasoned trainers). I believe he should be given the title of Master Animal Linguist, Coach & Trainer of any dog put in front of him! He has earned my respect, admiration, & trust 100% along with my friends too. Beckmans dog training is Great folks, no if and or buts about it..

[@clestra.]

Joel, you could not have illustrated this in a better way, and even in slow motion! And this is the reason walking a dog is not just a simple thing. We have to be completely aware of our environment and especially watchful of our dogs, know them very well and catch the exact moment to correct. Thank you so very much for all the tried and true information you kindly share for free

[@tilly_s]

I really like how Beckman says "Treats are not going to fix this." Thank you. Yes, there are certain situations where treats reinforce good behaviour. However, a correction such as this is needed to explain to the dog "no, this behaviour you just did, is not acceptable, knock it off." Especially to a dog who used to get away with such behaviour, a dog who learned this behaviour as normal and okay. This is especially important for people who walks dogs and let their dogs do whatever they want. And then wonder oh I can't fix it with treats. If you don't correct this, no amount of treats, verbal no-s or lovely dovey will fix this persistent mean mugging and potential escalations.

[@dog2484]

You praise cruel incompetent bullshit on dogs. Learn basics about dogs that you lack

[@markhoffman]

I used Joel’s method with my doberman and it works. However! I did this once and my Doberman snapped the leash. He took another 10 steps and I was like GET OVER HERE like that scorpion character in that old mortal Kombat video game. ! So make sure your leash is in good condition at all times.

[@dog2484]

U use animal abusing bullshit, because you aren't able leading a dog

[@WollongongSkyWatch]

Joel, you could also offer ppl this option: no dog has to mingle or play with other dogs but it does have to stop reacting to other dogs in its environment. Most pet owners get a dog for themselves, not for the dog to be friends with every other dog that walks past.

[@rendenellenberger5262]

You said that just right.

[@WollongongSkyWatch]

@@rendenellenberger5262 thank you for saying that :)

[@lillieberger2883]

Yes. My dog doesn’t need friends. He needs to behave and not react to others (dogs and people). He’s 7yo and has been leash reactive since we got him at 14 weeks old. He’s gotten so much better with ignoring people, but worse with dogs , and yes he’s neutered. We have a 1 1/2 yo female husky that he’s best friends with. He now gets reactive with other female dog’s which he’s never done before. So no meeting other dogs on leash anymore. Even dogs he used to play with he’s reactive to.

[@cdm9011]

Thank god for a reasonable person. These exercises are pointless. Dogs do not need dog friends. Dogs need to be compliant. Instead of this nonsense that teaches the dog nothing, it would be so much better to focus 1 on 1 with the dog establishing rules and commands like sit, down, heel. And then you slowly introduce distractions. If the dog is at heel and reacts to another dog, he doesn’t get in trouble for reacting, he gets in trouble for breaking heel. That is the key. Joel doesn’t give any direction to the dogs. They don’t know what they are supposed to do. Dogs are very simple creatures. So glad you brought this up. I have many times but it never gets addressed!

[@WollongongSkyWatch]

@@cdm9011 I think Joel is doing what the struggling owners want, and they want their dog to get along with other dogs simply because no one has given them another option. When ppl ask if my dog is friendly, I say: yes, but she isn't allowed to have friends. A few have actually looked relieved as they drag their dog away from trying to 'say hello.' People need permission to enforce restrictions.

[@MaxAngor]

That's what I had to learn to do hard way with Chip (full APBT.) I'm not small but I am disabled and that redirection of force back around to me works a hell of a lot better than trying to brace. He rushes, he hits the end of the leash and I basically bank him around to face me (or if he hits it hard enough, to be right next to me. Then I grab him) and then I put him in a sit/stay to calm him down. Attention on me until the dog passes. Or if it's across the street, I just keep walking and don't let him get any momentum. Physics is fun!

[@pattemonaco5195]

Many thanks! I am short and 90 pounds. My 70 pound Doberman is still in correction phase for lunging at other dogs and the trash truck. I'm so glad you emphasized leverage - now I will make sure that's what I'm paying attention to. . And the head halter is priceless.

[@jameschild1321]

I'm so glad you got the message about the technique. I try to explain to people who don't have the strength that it can still be done safely with technique. Even with a dog twice your size. They don't understand, unless they see it done.

[@robinrutherfordcost4748]

Check out Joel's video on the Rottweiler named Creed. It's like the foundation video for loose leash walking. He also has a dog walking tutorial from about 3 years ago too. Just running the dog for 5 minutes in the back yard before going on a walk helps take the edge off too. 180 degree turns before they start pulling helps the dog give himself a correction. Have two 100lb Dobes that I can now walk with one or two fingers. Hope that helps.

[@Anon_E_Muss]

[@rouxchat6033]

Uhm, that would be scary.

[@Flippokid]

Zak George tried his hands at a couple. He believes that the approach in this video overstimulates the dog and puts it in a position it's not ready to deal with. His work with Moira had some progress, especially with her reactivity to ducks, so I wouldn't discard it alltogether. But still that approach would take months, if not years, in the hands of a skilled trainer, instead of the handful of sessions that Joel takes.

[@jason_alan]

I watched that series. Enjoyed it a lot/he made good progress with her. From memory was reactive on leash but not nearly as aggressive as this one. George and inertia were my favorites of his.

[@Flippokid]

@@jason_alan His point was that it _seems_ she was less aggressive, because he wouldn't put her in the situations where she would freak out like this. I think they're reasonably comparible, and if not this dog then many of the other dogs that Beckman has shown over the years. I don't think Zak's method is better, but I don't think it's absolutely worthless either.

(lunging, growling, jumping etc.) i always knew there was some protective behavior in her and im not super surprised because of a lack of socialization(due to covid), during her most crucial months. now its gotten to a whole different level. i know you already have good content covering this subject but i still would love to see videos featuring dogs who are better with meeting dogs than they are meeting other people. have a great weekend!

I loved this training session! I have a large female dominant Great Dane mix that will sometimes go at a dog if the dog rushes up on her and if I am not paying attention she has just about pulled me off my feet. Most of the time she is good and a leave it command does the trick but sometimes we get surprised by a dog that is off leash and it is a struggle to hold her back. I think she is territorial and believes that our entire neighborhood is her property so she is reactive to other dogs being there.

There is a time when treats from the handler can help dog-dog and dog-human interactions. I use when on a walk and I see a person walking along. As soon as the dog sees the person I treat the dog. Same if the person had a dog. Now, one on one in a non-public situation, I completely agree with you. The treats have to come from the other human and no treats can be used with same species interaction.

[@mikelazure7462]

I have a rescued GSD - entirely cool with people, not affectionate to strangers, pretty much just cool and disinterested. BUT reactive to most other dogs within a certain distance. Pretty sure he is 'resource guarding' as we are his first EVER pack/home and he's three and a half. (Long experience of being ignored in the backyard and then locked in a cage at a kennel.) His two 'behaviours'? Pulling and dog reactivity. Watching a lot of videos here to learn tools for both. Having the physics of this particular 'check' explained was very helpful.

[@primalcritters]

Hi Joel. I love your channel and hello from Los Angeles. I know you don't like to use tools that I prefer but I will just say this. For anybody that enjoys having large, athletic, and Powerful dogs, sometimes a simple flat collar is not effective to correct a dog from pulling. I am 5 foot 9 in weigh 128 lb. I also have a lower back injury. One of my dog's is lean 68 lb, a German Shepherd Shepherd, Dutch Shepherd and Pitbull mix. A very handsome dog with Incredible temperament and he is 68 lb of pure muscle and very trim because I do not like my dog's overweight. That said, on walks every time he sees a dog he wants to play with it. I have trained him well through corrections to not pull me. However, as in life, no human or dog is perfect and sometimes he will pull very hard. Perhaps if I were bigger and stronger a simple flat color correction would work. However it does not work for me nor did it work for my six-foot-two 74 year old father. Instead of using of flat collar to issue Corrections which actually applies too much pressure on the front side of his throat, I use a pinch collar while walking and training him because while it appears more scary looking than a flat collar, it actually distributes even pressure around the dog's neck so as not to put too much pressure on the front of the throat. Pinch collars used properly, during training and walks, also do not cause any injury to the dog's neck. I use the pinch collar everyday with walk my dog and he has no marks, abrasions, or injuries of any kind on his neck. I say this only because there are people I know that cannot control their dog from pulling and a head halter or flat collar will not work for every dog or every person. If one is interested in a powerful dog and needs to control them on walks, I would suggest you learn how to use a pinch collar and learn how to effectively reprimand your dog for unacceptable Behavior. The pinch collar alone will not work unless you teach the dog how it works. In other words, you instruct them to heal or no to not pull and if they don't do it then you if you the correction. I wouldn't recommend pinch collars for every dog, it really depends on the individual. Just to give you an example of pulling, my father walked Bear with a flat collar and Bear pulled him towards another dog because he wanted to play so hard that my dad was dragged down the street bloodied and pulled his hamstring. Also, for someone with a back issue, pulling a dog back forcefully with a leash and flat collar will exacerbate back pain. Just wanted to add this for anybody that needs help with pulling and hasn't looked into pinch collars. Also e-collars can work well but they have to be trained properly otherwise they will not work because a dog needs to understand the purpose of it so it knows what not to do. You don't simply put an e-collar on and apply stimulation for bad behavior. You have to teach the dog properly and use a high-quality e-collar. There is a vast difference between a cheap and ineffective and dangerous shock collar and a high-quality effective and safe e-collar

[@a.e.s.n.]

Great comment! Mr. Beckman doesn't use prong collars or e collars. He is very into gentle leaders/halti. I'm personally not for them because the injuries they can cause a dog's neck, muzzle, and back. But every trainer has a different approach.

Joel, I've been following this procedure for 2 years and I can confirm that it works. But I still struggle sometimes with my Labrador. He still have some issues with a few unneutered male dogs. He hits the end of the leash and feels the impact, but since he is a strong dude, it's like he doesn't care anymore with it. It's really hard to get his attention back those times. I really wanna find I way to make him control himself a like better in this situations. He is a socialized dog, with a lot of friends, but behaves bad specially on the leash with some unneutered dogs.

[@paulthomas333]

Ditto, but with small humans, adult or child. Not mean aggressive but overly friendly, jumping on people. I might try the free hand up and away move you used.

[@robinrutherfordcost4748]

I have done a no bark or the walk is over - your choice. You have to follow through and actually go home that very first time you say it and the dog ignores you - just so they know you're not crying wolf. You can probably see what he's going to do way before it happens so a few feet before you know here it comes, just do a 180 degree turn. In other words, in order to get what the dog wants (to get closer to the other dog), he has to do what you want - walk nicely on a loose leash. You're not turning back towards the other dog until they are calm. Try again. You might get one step closer this time before you do another 180 degree turn away from the other dog. Hope that helps. Joel has some awesome videos of a reactive Boxer mix from years ago that gets to actually meet and walk with other dogs on their walk. Hope that helps.

My 6 month corso is in a fear period, she barks in similar scenarios but in a retreating and backing up way. Not the full on lunge. She gets a swift correction, but I don't snap at the first warnings, only after the her chuffs, and warnings. I don't mind those if she is protecting. But after I acknowledge the potential she then needs to understand, master has got this, and relent. She's still young but corsos need a firm leader

[@colletteian]

I .a 6 month old Aussie. He gets tons of exercise all day long, I take him to this nice park with lots of creeks for him to splash in and swim, he loves it. He is not reactive to dogs or people or bikes (he doesn't care much for a few strangers who have wanted to pet him, but most people he loves). He is on a harness and 25 foot lead which I use to let him go get in creeks, and I reel him by my side or to trot around and sniff for most of the walk. Always at some point during walk, he gets some sort of zoomie behavior then lunges at me. He seems in play mode, but hes relentless and rough, biting and I cant get him off me except to knee him and get him to a tree to pully him off me til he calms down. I taught him "easy on your side," and I can get him on his side (still biting, but calming down). I let him back up and sometimes a pinecone or a nearby leaf can be given to him and hell just carry it and continue on like his normal sweet self, but often it takes several tries and a few bruises to get him back to planet earth. Its crazy! People tell me its because hes a herding dog. Ive had 2 border collies, 2 dobies, a Rhodesian Ridgeback and trained them all without anything like this happening. Im about 110 pounds 5 foot 3, but am strong. I was hoping this video might address something like this. I have searched everywhere, and the only thing I can find is a guy using an air can to startle the dog as it redirects aggression. A video on a dog doing something like this would probably help a few people ;) Especially me! Any advice appreciated. Also, this dog has learned insane amount of tricks, hes smart, gentle and a doll all other times. He is not aggressive...except in this one way. Any advice or links to videos that might help would be great. Oh, I can snap him out with treats and hell start doing tricks, but as soon as we try to walk on he starts back

[@colletteian]

I should say he is exercised LOTS. I am home all day and between me and my two boys, 10 and 11, he fetches, and herds with his herding ball and swims in his little kiddie pool, does his training with tricks and heel off leash...He comes inside and behaves well, sleeps in his crate and loves it...No behavior issues at all except this. Hes been the most biting puppy Ive ever had.

I have found that if you aren't strong enough to stand your ground with dogs like these, momentum is your friend. I was at one point walking a Labrador of one of our family friends when I was still much younger and she had this habit of launching when other large dogs got involved. I wasn't nearly strong enough to hold the dog back then, even with a double grip, so I just yanked the leash before she reached the end, causing her to get thrown off and lose all momentum. It takes timing and knowing exactly what triggers your dog, but it worked wonders.

This is the first dog I’ve noticed Prince cutting his eyes at like “omg that dog is a beast” 😂.

[@SJane3]

After watching this video again, is Prince actually trying to induce play there during your two-handed correction? It looked like a play bow and Prince didnt really try to do any correction with you there even though he was off-leash. I dont think he was scared of that dog, and even shows his "I dont want to fight" side to the dog. This is one of my favorite videos of yours because of how expressive that other dog is throughout the entire video. What a great one for people to watch/learn indicators for their own dog! Every expressive with her eyes, ears, and overall posture for sure!

[@SJane3]

I take it there was a problem with how the owner of this dog took that double-hand correction? Not judging, as it is never easy to see your dog be legitimately corrected for the first time, but I dont think there is anything better for that dog than what we just saw there! I dont comment on your videos (much, if not at all until now.. sorry) but this video is EXACTLY what I needed to see for my large dog reactive pup as well. I have been trying to figure out how to be in front of my dog and correct him without actually blocking my dog, and this will help me so much! Before, I admittedly was stepping in front of my dog (he too is muzzled during training, so I knew I wouldnt get bit) but it wasnt working as well as I hoped. Will try this method for sure! Thank you so much for this! Sorry for the novel! Haha felt it was worth giving thanks

[@pamjarvis6199]

Awesome video I always thought a female of any dog breed would be gentle becouse I've mostly had boys but I'm finding out not so I've had two male schnauzers and now my six month old female and she is just as wild as he was I wish you lived closer omg I NEED YOUR EXPERIENCE

[@anbo5928]

In my eyes one of the questions is the difference in awarenesses: The dog trainer knows his alltime responsibility of his attitude and (body)language. How conscious seems 'the owner' about her own and her dogs (assumable) reality? Is the dog more a thing or more a lovable creature with a beautifull energy, she can help to deploy? Thinking good and bad isn't appropriate.

[@katz734]

I love the Caine Corso. And would love to have one of these dogs. But I know I’m not experienced enough with a breed like this to just go and get one. Maybe in time and me getting more knowledge and training, it’s possible.

[@susanmckernan4644]

Great demo but…many of us smaller , older gals don’t have that body strength. Is this a case of using other tools, such as ecollar?

[@ghostex7166]

I admire how prince was trained

[@carolduvall111]

Thank you I'm a woman with a large dog with reactive behaviors

[@bealladelecce4531]

I have a large 7 year old Male Cane Corso named Scooby. He seems to be fine with other dogs until the other dog reacts. I cannot use the "Stop and Pop" method, though I wish I could. He is VERY strong, and will simply pull me along with him as if I wasn't even there. (With no people/dogs around) He is good on a leash, though he will begin to pull somewhere if he wants to go to the bathroom there. But if Scooby wants to go after someone or something, there is no stopping him unless we use all of our strength to hold him in place. When he was younger, his first owner abused him. The guy that abused him happened to be black, and Scooby seems to hold a grudge. If he sees a black person, we have to simply turn and go the opposite way otherwise he will go after them. I also have a 2nd dog, she is a small mixed breed named Dixie, and is turning 7 years old this month. I have had her since she was born, and I love her dearly. She is good with people, but super aggressive with other dogs. There have been 5 dogs she is alright with, the newest dog being Scooby. She has come across many dogs, and will growl, bark, and sometimes lunge at them. Thankfully she is small and I can simply pick her up or use the "Stop and Pop" method, though it doesn't seem to do anything. I do not have the time or money to being these dogs to a trainer, and I don't know what to do. If you have any advice, please let me know.

[@bealladelecce4531]

Scooby knows a couple basic commands, and a couple extra. He knows Sit, Lay Down (Or just Down), Paw/Other Paw, and Pretty (Pretty is where he stand on his hind legs). We are teaching him "Stay", and he's getting better, but will exit the command once you've left for about 30 seconds. Dixie however, doesn't know any commands. She partially knows Sit, but generally doesn't listen.

Get a cat 🐈

[@brianflorian6304]

Beckman, do you think you can do a video on dog fights in the same home and the best advice and tips to help reintroduce them .. I have a lab and English coonhound who got into a very scary fight and need help to reintroduce them, I know this will be very hard but I will not rehome them and will do my best to manage them both .. the lab is not neuter so that’s one of the next steps to maybe help with the dominant behavior ..

"Hopefully that makes sense. Like the video" Me, not even a dog owner: "yes sir!"

[@shanetaylor7581]

Gotta make a vocal command also. Or if he responds to sit,kennel or down really well then use that.

[@gregchambers6100]

Superb. You're taking on boerboels and cane corsos. Cudos. Are there any dragons around for you to train?

[@lindsaymarikofoose9099]

As this dog resembles my own dog in many ways I am curious to know what your expectations for progress are or can be with your training. In other words, will this dog have doggy friends or be at ease meeting new people?

[@SketiSquad]

Hey Joel, this is random but I’ve been struggling with my dog and introducing her to cats. Any advice for prey driven dogs and fellow pets?

[@mguerra310]

Yes! I have a 1 y/o cane corso, boi is it a progress with that guy. Stubborn, dominant, and being big and strong a true handful. Always challenging me trying to be the pack leader. Socializing is very important with them at 3-4 months get them with other dogs, get them used to people. I took mine to dog parks, walmart, lowes, anywhere where it was ok to bring in a dog. Truth be told he is just a big baby. Also prong collar works wonders with a cane corso

[@robinrutherfordcost4748]

Pain messes with their brains Joel says. He does everything without prongs, shock/ ecollars and with so many countries outlawing them, he's one of the few and I mean very few people who doesn't have to use them. Watch some of the videos of people coming to his facility on a prong collar and how soon it gets removed and how much better they both feel - owner and dog. Hope that helps.

[@mguerra310]

@@robinrutherfordcost4748 actually he made a video on this. He is not against e-collars. What he is against is misuse of them and using them irresponsibly. Low level e collars actually work great. Prong collars same thing, its a tool you just got to know how to use it properly. Matter of fact Joel’s GOAT Cesar Milan has used e collars before and was wrongfully criticized for it

[@robinrutherfordcost4748]

Yes, it just says a lot about owners when a kid can walk a Great Dane into a pet store on a regular collar. Says to everyone, I can control my dog on this equipment. No need for anything else. Even Krohn, who's written a book on ecollars, says you need to teach what you want before you slap a tool on your dog and prongs and ecollars aren't going to fix aggression. Just saying. Joel 's lack of their use is one of the many reasons I refer my students to his channel. Again countries are outlawing them, so Joel is sure to get more subscribers since he shows you what to do and how do do it without having to rely on them or be a "go to" tool. If you notice, Joel is very careful and has far less dog fights, if any at all, than Cesar.

[@mguerra310]

@@robinrutherfordcost4748 well Ceasar is hollywood produced. They’re going to throw in fights and extreme scenes and dogs to get views. A prong or e collar is for training eventually you phase it out. Just like treats. Matter of fact it has gotten to the point where I can walk my cane corso off leash. Just saying. And never did i say you use it on aggressive dogs. Socializing them early, which I did with mine, is what helps with dog aggressiveness and people reactivity. And forget about Krohn people writing books isn’t going to help you bro. Just saying. Krohn (whoever the hell he is) didn’t even make Joel’s GOAT list. Also a great dane and cane corso have 2 totally different temperaments. Cane corso’s need to be more active than Great Danes and Great Danes are more family oriented than a cane corso. A cane corso will really challenge your leader skills more than a great dane will.

[@juliecho1739]

Great video, my 1 year old (intact male, 145lbs) Cane Corso lays down and waits for dogs to come to him. I think he think its makes him look smaller and less intimidating.

[@kodamoose5905]

That’s cute! Wish mine did that! Lol.

Question for this video. I have a friend with a Lab/Bloodhound mix male, can't remember age but I know it's young maybe 3 at the most. She is having a problem with him wanting to bite people.

[@drewd2]

I was wondering why I've been shaking for the last week. I was going through Beckman's Dog Training video withdrawal. I'm fine now. Phew.

[@rouxchat6033]

[@harleyjordan7959]

I'm curious how you would handle unique, highly independent dogs like basenjis. I have 2. They're incredible dogs, but hard-headed isn't a strong enough adjective to describe the breed. I've got one that loves to please and is a good boy, but he likes to steal food and occasionally mark in the house - but only when no one is around to catch him because he knows it's naughty. And I've got a female who's more cat than dog half of the time. Aloof, defiant, and has serious door dashing issues. But she's very cuddly at night and in the morning, knows twenty+ commands (mostly tricks, tbf) and will do anything she can comprehend as soon as the treats come out.

[@sky1watcher243]

That last one made me jump!

[@reaganbrianne2241]

Besides the muzzle she has on, you are only using a regular collar for this, right? Or is it a martingale?

[@MrStevie15]

Any advice for 1 ignoring you when u ask for it to sit when out for walks when it's lunging at something I say no and nudge the shoulder with knee sometimes it works sometimes no

[@trande6136]

Joel, you reacted to the close up lunge seemingly before it even happened. Can you confirm, did you do it because you saw Corso straightening her body to prep for the lunge and/or her closing her mouth?

[@damonwhitsell6911]

How do you feel about grabbing a dog by the skruff of the neck and pinning them down until they settle down when they go after dogs? I have a 30 lb. pitmix, she does not bite but plays way too rough throwing her body into my landlords dog. My landlords dog does not like her because of this bad behavior, and of course, my landlords really do not like it. I have to get this under control before we get evicted. So is holding her down by the sckruff of her neck until she clams down a good way to do it? It seems to work some, letting her hit the end of the leash and jerking her back does not work at all.

[@waterydepths5584]

Can you do a video on what to do when your dog (on a lease) is attacked by another dog (not on a lease)?

[@sherrilewis1142]

Curious…is this a Cane Corso/Rottie mix? I notice the brindle points and her structure, especially her head, has Rottie influence. Not that it matters, unless it does so because of breed tendency, drive, etc.

[@pennymcadams7252]

Sorry but this seems to be the only way to ask questions. Do you have videos on getting a dog to stop trying to chase cars? Also any videos on controlling my dog around family members? I have a pit/rotty mix 1yr unfixed female and a Boston Terrier 8yr fixed male, both show signs of wanting to chase, Boston more. Pit/Rotty is walking with me very well since using your technique, but she pulls when I walk with someone else, just wants to play when walking with the Boston Terrier, and at the end of my walk with her if she sees my husband or older son she turns on mastiff mode. She gets the same way in the house.

[@adventureswithfrodo2721]

This dog needs to be trained by a K9 experianced trainer. This is a dog that need to know it's place in the world and it takes a special trainer for that.

[@concernedcitizen3476]

This is what my dog is like except she would be barking and lunging the entire time as well
