"I'm not a professional Trainer" - You don't need to be a professional trainer to know *not to slam your dog's head in a door*

[@searchfield]

Poor boy ):

[@MrWereWolfGirl]

I am not a trainer or anything but ... Imagine - if that was a small dog like a chi and you accidentally crushed their head+ I can see sooo many problems with this - I can instantly tell that if they ever release the dog outside in the yard the dog won't want to come back in because he is scared of the door - congratulations, this "trainer" just made their dog fear the door. If there is a fire in the house or something the dog won't be able to go out because they are now scared of the door.

[@mist0098]

some humans don't have common sense. My rule is if you wouldn't do it to a kid don't do it to a dog.

[@RandomYorkshireGaming]

I did training as a module in college last year. This "training" would count as positive punishment - you're adding (that's what positive means in this sense) something into the equation that the dog doesn't like, such as getting crushed in a door. Like Em says, the most common form of training is positive reinforcement, which is much better and less harmful for the dog. Unfortunately, because TikTok, this man probably saw little/no repercussions for his actions. I hope he got fired at the very least.

[@gurglequeen433]

@@MrWereWolfGirl There's a show called Me or the Dog where a trainer teaches people how to properly rain and treat their dogs. She's extremely against any kind of physical force like shock collars or choke chains. There was one episode where the family had a shock pad in front of the door so if the dogs went barking at the door they got shocked. Only problem was after it happening so many times the dogs were terrified to go near the door so they couldn't get the dogs to go in or out. Once it was removed it took a lot of positive reinforcement to get them to not be scared anymore.

[@ayomad5373]

I guess that "trainer" has never heard of sit or stay. Absolutely terrible method. Using fear to "train" isn't training, it's just intimidating.

[@fosgate6144]

[@Dodgera-ED-Wolff]

As a dog trainer I can, with certainty, say that this method will only create fear and only teaches the dog not to dash when you are right next to the door/on leash. If someone opens the door from the outside or it’s another family member he/she will dash. If you try this without a leash you will loose the dog (even if you don’t you’ll likely close the door harder because there’s no tether and possibly hurt the dog worse). I’ve also seen in the comments people being concerned for different breeds/dogs with health issues, reactivity, etc. this type of training post on tik tok takes these out of the training equation and, especially with an inexperienced owner, can make the issue worse or cause a ton of damage (don’t forget most people who will use this method will be new puppy owners or folks who have a dog that needs special attention they aren’t used to giving) As for the Shorty Bull; it’s very sad. Folks breed pits with bulldogs and try to go with the super buffed guy look (but don’t want a big dog) as someone hoping to specialize in Canine work I would never recommend this type of dog (or any like it) who have been breed to have many heath issues for a look. I’m sure the breeders take great care of the pups but really, no matter the care, I feel it is not ethical to breed a dog who has a high percentage to be extremely unhealthy. Edit: Em you are amazing! You’ve been a huge inspiration for me to pursue Zoology as a degree to help educate folks! As a fellow Denver area resident I cannot wait to see more videos from you exploring with Kiba on Instagram!

[@ticcitoasty]

the fact people think dogs will not associate that experience with the owner/trainor and RESENT them. it’s such an egocentric way of thinking “i want the dog to interpret this lesson the way i do!!” not how teaching works. it’s just abuse

[@Fallenfromgrace1990]

The dog trainer with the door.... what happened to sit and stay?! 🤦‍♀️

[@Emzotic]

Right!?

[@Theelderscrolls52]

My parents trained their dog to sit on the runner (rug) in the hallway when the front door is opened. And he has never ran out without permission. He is very treat motivated and he gets pats and treats for sitting in the rug. They did the same with the kitchen as well. If we are in the kitchen he sits on a rug when we open the fridge or oven. It was really easy. It’s called ‘place’ we point and say “Place,” and he goes and sits or lays down

[@Fallenfromgrace1990]

@@Theelderscrolls52 We taught our dogs to sit and stay by their crate. We crate trained them and just use that as their place to stay.

[@FullOfRandomness02]

So there are other methods.. I’m not speaking on this guys method. But just saying, for example, a method I do to teach door manners do not include sit and stay. I focus more in on the mental aspect of the dog. I want the dog to calm down MORE than I want the dog to sit and stay. I’ll teach that after, maybe, once i have a calm state of mind. Far too often I’ve seen dogs “sit, stay” at the door and before they’re even released, their mindset is still past you and a mile down the road. I’m just putting in my two cents. It’s hard to judge a 15 second video when you don’t know the whole story. Or the mindset of the guy.

[@ina7084]

@@FullOfRandomness02 I do the same. I watch the dog. I open the door bit by bit. The moment I see even the slightest bit of obsessive interest into that door, I close it. Dog starts trying new behaviours to see which one opens the door and learns the door opens only when they're ignoring it and away from it. I do say "back" though so that later on I can use it as a command for them to get away from the door on their own.

I do have some experience with exotic bullies from my time working at a veterinary hospital and you're completely right.

They seemed prone to heart issues as well. They are just a MESS of very very expensive health problems.

[@paigek9923]

Causing pain and fear in an animal is not training it is abuse you may get faster results with it but proper training will give you better results.

[@wafflefalafel9442]

People also teach their children with pain. Personally I think fear tactics don't need pain when you're teaching a living thing. My parents never hit me or beat me. I don't think I'd ever hit or beat my kids. A good parent doesn't need to use pain on their kids, and a good pet owner doesn't need to use pain on their animals. Force? Maybe. But not outright smacking/hitting.

[@milkglassfairy7641]

waffle falafel yeah pain is unnecessary and does not benefit any creature :( fear is sometimes honestly the only way to teach a young child not to do things like touch the stove🤦🏼‍♀️ my nearly 2yo always tries to open the oven and even if it’s not on I will yell OW! And it’ll scare him and he will quickly step away from the oven. He doesn’t understand explanations yet so scaring him away from it like that is the only way. But no one should be using pain to teach their animals or kids anything. I don’t think fear is necessary in animals either...? Like in dogs especially? Why do you need to make your dog scared when they are very capable of learning and obeying commands without fear?

[@TheGoldenDunsparce]

Also for the dog "training" clip, notice that the dog looks at him when it hesitates. The dog knew that the owner shut the door on it, so the fear is the owner hurting them for trying to walk through. The dog also backs away and uses disengaging techniques by looking away and back. The guy didn't teach his dog not to door dash, he thaught the dog that if it tries to door dash with him around, he'll shut the door on its neck. If he wasn't there, I'm 100% sure the dog would run out. In contrast, I've taught my dog that if a door is closed and he wants to go through, he must sit and wait. I can simply touch or tap the doorknob and he knows that when he sits, I'll open the door, and he can go out when I say okay or gesture a "go ahead" with my arm. If a door is open unexpectedly, my dog doesn't walk through it unless I'm present and we meet eyes and I say ok, especially if it leads outside. I didn't have to teach him this by crushing him in the door. I simply consistently have him wait each and every time I open a door, and if he seems like he's planning to dash due to excitement, I don't set him up to fail; I simply remind him to sit and wait and reward it with an open door and freedom

[@Jade_The_Squeak]

Sometimes she gives a single, sharp bark in response and I feel like she is letting me know she disapproves having to wait a few extra seconds, lol.

As for the Dog and the door darting - there is a much better much less intrusive way to train your dog. My working dog had the similar problem, as hes a mali and htey are high energy and quite territorial. But when you start young you can everytime he rushes for the door (due to the door bell or something like that) take them put them in their place (for sira it is her bed) and only when they are calm got the door. I know this may not work all the time due to some people ringing and beeing inpatient but my fiencé and friends helped ringing the bell helping me to establis htht the door is "my respinsibility" and that sira doesn't need to care. As for going for a walk and htem beeing excited I trained sira to get her harness as I put on my shoes and with that I have no stress with her beeing excited to get out because she has something to do. The whole Idea of beeing alpha to a dog is rebutted and even the person who came up with that theory withdrew it. Yes pain helps to teach dogs that certain behaviors are to be avioded, but that is something I don't see necessary as they learn just as well if you are patient and consequent with what you demand. And with most dog owners I know, the consequence is the major problem, they asume a dog has the same mental capacity as a human alloweing one thing one day and another thing the other is alienateing them as they need some form of consistent guidence.

[@laurenmellen654]

You don't even have to start early. My method is a bit different, since I want my dogs to react to someone at the door due to where I live. I put a puppy gate up outside the door to start with just to be safe (I'll use a longline on known jumpers) and set a boundary somewhere away from the door. Every time the door is opened, I block them from passing the boundary. If they get past me, I bring them back. The most important things to remember are to relax and be consistant. When I'm able to step away without the dog making a dash for it, I close the door and praise them. Rinse and repeat. As they get better, I remove the puppy gate, and as they lose interest, I test them by walking outside or leaving the room. My dogs hardly notice when the door is left open. It helps to make them wait before following through doors inside the house as well. I do a lot of petsitting and make a point of teaching every dog I watch door boundaries. The dogs who stay with me regularly are experts. There are so many non-violent ways to stop door dashing. I don't understand why someone would think it's necessary to slam a dogs head in a door. Sure, doing it right takes a lot of time and consistancy, but it also builds trust and understanding. Teach a dog to obey fear, and they will, but don't expect them to trust you enough to come when something frightens them into the middle of the road.

[@Sinpathie]

Once I saw a story where this exotic bully passed away at ONLY 4 YEARS OLD. And the breeders CELEBRATED that, calling it a long life. Most dogs aren't even at their best shape at that age and are still maturing, and these bullies are dropping before 5. No dog should be bred like that.

Dogs can become physically injured if they are trained this way as well as develop mental issues, Stress, fear, anxiety and a lot of times aggression.

The dog one is so sad 😭 He is teaching horrible fear. That’s not calm it is fear.

[@SaraAson]

WTF is that "exotic bully" dog? It looks diseased that's horrible who's allowing that kind of thing to be breed? And don't say a peep about "it's just like a English/French Bulldog" because those dogs are also horrifically misshapen and should not be breed as with most all the show dogs. Because non off those are the original standards it changes anytime the new show dog star rolls in with even more off a mutated trait that's considered desireable for that breed even though just about all off them are horrible genetic defects that will negatively impact whatever short life that animal has. Don't let that shit happen stick to the working dog version off those breeds if you haven't seen the diffrence look it up it will be obvious.

I would say I enjoy that look in your eyes when you say a pun as much, if not more, than most of the clips. You remind me of a small child doing something mischievous, like 'I know I shouldn't be doing this, but I'm still going to anyways'. I just roll my eyes and think 'ok, that was a good one'.

[@justyouraveragejay]

There was this English dog trainer who taught a family to train their dog not to door dash. What she did was very similar to the method that Em described, and she also implemented negative reinforcement. That was not pain, but rather, they would be led back into the house and then they would try again. No closing the door on their dog

I actually have a cat who door dashes. She's a pretty nervous kitty, and my dad has accidentally caught her neck in the door before. She was fine, but he felt absolutely awful.

[@corrinaingels787]

I also have a cat that used to door dash. What I did was get a cat harness and leash and took my cat out for walks. After that I placed the leesh in a place away from the door in my home. My cat now will go to the leesh when he wants to go outside instead of the door. Just an idea

You know the one with the dog and the trainer. When the guy closes the door the first time the dog tries to get out from the door like a snack in his shoulders he tries to pull himself out but because the guy is pulling in closing the door he can’t and that’s horrible

[@Dualipaschoreographer]

I actually use Emzotic's videos as a kind of therapy. I have, since I can remember, had a huge phobia of reptiles, and I couldn't even look at a picture of a reptile without panicking. I can now look at pictures and watch videos with reptiles in it, without feeling the fear I am so used to feeling. It's all because of Em's lighthearted videos and slow exposure to those videos with reptiles (of course followed with a video of the notorious carpet sharks as some kind of reward). Hopefully I can go see a snake in real life soon and feel comfortable with it

[@Emzotic]

Woooow! What a lovely comment. Thank you so much for sharing. You’re doing great. Take it nice and slow :)

[@Avocetexotics]

I absolutely love all of your points you made in this video. I especially hated the dog training one. My dog knows he can not go through any door with out sitting a waiting for me to tell him ok. And seeing the orcas trying to hunt was amazing! Orcas are such amazing creatures and truly don't deserve to be in tiny concrete tanks. It is so sad.

[@AnEverythingNice]

I absolutely love orcas! Their intelligence is truly something out of this world. Very Amazing creatures.

[@TehGreatIdiot]

that guy with the door made me so mad, I would go berserk if someone I tried to train my dogs like that. hell no! also same with that poor pitbull... that's just.. it's not healthy. like I have a corgi, I'm well aware of the possible health risks of long backs and short legs... unless that dog is very, very lucky it's just going to suffer in the future. hip + back problems are not a joke. I feel so bad for that dog.

[@jojag5]

I do that training with my dog regularly, but instead of closing the door on her, I close it as she approaches. She doesn't get to go through the door until I say it's ok. The reward is not a treat, but the environment itself (i.e. going outside or for a walk). This is VERY important training especially if you have seniors in the house. Large dogs who don't have manners at doors or staircases can cause falls and injury.

[@testerwulf3357]

That’s very different from what he did. He was using pain and fear to control the dog.. Closing the door as they approached is sort of just closing off what they want and letting them figure out how to keep it open is very rewarding for them as it’s good for their mental health. This or treats are great methods! Positive training is fantastic, but that is not what he did.

Em, I’m in such a tough situation...I have to re home a cat of mine since I’m moving and my parents won’t take her, because she doesn’t get along with there female cats.

It would break my heart to give her to a shelter I don’t want her to feel like she’s been abandoned, what do you think the best course of action would be?

[@teashark9878]

Is there a way to get her into a foster home through a rescue?

[@Emzotic]

If you don’t have someone trustworthy who can take her for you, really the best thing to do would be to start discussing a course of action with no-kill shelters. I know it’s hard, but plenty of people will be looking for a nice cat to bring home. Shelters will be safer than advertising her on the internet. I’m so sorry that you have to be in this situation. I know it hurts, but there are shelters which will give her wonderful care until a lovely new family adopts her ❤️

sharks actually arent interested in eating humans at all. Sharks taste buds are on their gums so they HAVE to bite into whatever it is to tell if it food or not. Sharks also dont taste the same as a human for example a human tastes food as good or bad; a shark taste food as this is food this is not food. So if a shark bites into a human they taste the bone and flesh and realize we arent their normal food but biting into a seal thwy get the bluber and fat and will keep attacking. We call this the investigative bite.

I have accidentally shut doors on my pets and on animals at work- I work at a dog and cat boarding facility- and I always feel SO BAD when it happens!! I do everything I can to reinforce the boundary, but after I put a dog in it’s kennel and I’m stepping out of it- we use very large kennels for our dogs that people can fit inside of with the dog- sometimes the dog tries to rush out while I’m leaving and shutting the door behind me. Paws have gotten squished and noses bumped and it’s awful! If I slanmed a door on a dog ON PURPOSE for ANY REASON I would lose my job and any the certifications I have to have to work with any animals. Animal welfare may even take my personal pets away for that blatant act of abuse. I just don’t get how that ‘trainer’ thinks that’s proper or appropriate at all.

[@TheBethaiable]

you asked for our thoughts on these 'exotic bullies' And mine is simple: Anything with a smushed face is cruel to the dog. The difficulties for the dog as a result is not fair on them. Short legs are also not good, but they're less of a concern than smushed faces.. My sister loves the smushed faces and has an old english bulldog and a frenchie.. both had to have knee surgeries, both needed surgery for breathing. Not only expensive but an ordeal for a lil pup to go through... Not fair... Not only her, but people i've met with these dogs complain about health issues and vet bills and my only concern is if it goes through that much, then what must the dog feel?

For anyone curious there is a new theory out that contradicts the mistaken identity theory for shark attacks. This theory is based on the difference in attack strategies that Sharks use on Pinnipeds v.s. Surfers. It basically explains that many Sharks are biting because they are curious creature who test new things with their teeth.
