I'm a dog trainer and I wish people realized just how dangerous it is when they don't disclose this kind of information. If we don't know, you are putting our safety at risk. If your dog displays any sort of aggressive behavior. ALWAYS consult with a professional immediately! Don't wait until behaviors are totally out of control. It makes our job so much harder and someone could get hurt.

[@latreeseaspence1894]

So true

[@bsavage357]

How true Jasmine. Unfortunately, many owners are not familiar with the early signs of aggression. By the time I am called in to work with a dog, I know I am the last line of defense for the owners to be able to keep their pet. Thus, I know the dog bites. I also know the dog has bitten a child at some point. When I ask if the dog bites, they always say no. This lie of omission is because they are embarrassed to state the truth. I wait until the third visit working with them to ask the question again. By then they have seen a vast improvement in the behavior of their dog and are more trusting of me to answer the question truthfully. It's then that the bite stories come flooding out of them. It isn't until the dog bites a child, that they realize it's time to call for help.

[@AtPrEd]

Really to few know the worth of discipline.

[@FIRING_BLIND]

[@JasmineTheDogTrainer]

@@AtPrEd It’s not necessarily “discipline” it comes down to people not naturally knowing or being trained in how to identify and redirect behaviors. Unfortunately it’s very common for people to wait until it’s totally out of control to seek help from a professional. I love what I do. I get to make a difference and help people keep their dogs. But it’s certainly a high stress level career to have. And it’s important for clients to be truthful and disclose everything. I think sometimes people are embarrassed. But I’m not your neighbor. I’m not your judgy family member or friend. I’m here to help make sure your dog doesn’t injure someone or another dog.

Like you've never once forgotten anything in your life. Tell me exactly what you ate 2 months ago to this day. When things are so chaotic, you're bound to forget something until that memory is triggered. Not to mention that the only other experience with it is the dog nipping at one of the family, which means the behavior was much less than what we saw with Victoria (a stranger).

[@cahan557]

Eventide difference is they knew she was coming so they’d need to clarify the extent of the dogs violence aka how much risk the trainer is at when near the dog. What someone ate is almost always much less important than if your dog has a history of possessiveness and violence especially when you have contacted a dog trainer to come, they should have made sure to tell her everything.

[@Eventide215]

@@cahan557 You knew I asked what the person ate 2 months ago. Apply this to you, you know I asked you now, so now tell me exactly what you ate 2 months ago to this day. I'll wait. The point isn't how important it is. The point is that you forget literally ANYTHING in your life. They wouldn't think anything of it at the time, so it's not important to remember. Doesn't mean suddenly if it's important in the future they remember it all. I could change the question to "Tell me everything you've ever learned in school", ALL of what you learned is important to some degree, so please do tell me every tiny detail.

[@cahan557]

Eventide i doubt victoria just showed up with no warning on that day, she likely organised this months in advance so in response, if 2 months ago you told me you would ask me a certain question, id have 2 months to get all the details and answer. Also something as mundane as what you ate is easy to forget as most people do it three times a day, id hope their dog doesnt attack people 3 times a day but more of a rare occurrence.

Honestly it’s not the dog that needs training it’s the human. I very quickly learned that with my pittie. I couldn’t figure out why she wouldn’t listen or respect my space. And I watched a few training videos and realized I wasn’t doing her training right. Now I have dog that has manners because I showed her what I wanted how I want it when I want it. She’s a different dog because I’m a different human. It’s the human not the dog. We have expectations that are way too high before we show them and teach them. If the dog is not doing it then its because the humans not doing it right.

I have noticed people don't consider it 'a real bite' unless it ends in stitches at the hospital. As a kid my friend's German Shepherd was trained to guard the yard. One time they let him out of the cage while I was in the yard by mistake. He tackled me and bit my foot. He did not break the skin cuz shoes. But that doesn't mean he didn't bite. They did not see it that way though. They claimed it wasn't a big deal, he didn't really bite me because we didn't need to see a doctor. Same logic was applied when it came to their own kids. One of which was four or five at the time. Owners like that infuriate me.

[@rustyhowe3907]

@@iohiti That's horrible and I'm glad to hear it wasn't a severe bite for you. I knew a family that had a trained guard dog that would ONLY bite on a particular word, they wouldn't tolerate anything else. This same dog would herd and pick up little kids off the road and let the family's two year old climb on him, however the parents were also right on it when it came to how the kids behaved around their dog too (especially with their own kid), much to an entitled parent's misery but if they complained they'd get a right tearing into from the owners. The owners told me they considered it fair "our dog doesn't bite the kids, the kids shouldn't bite back". I'm sad to see that vanish with modern dog owners.

I couldn't agree more, but I don't want people to think that all rescues are difficult to train or automatically badly behaved. There are many sweet dogs that need homes, mine weren't trained but luckily I rescued the sweetest dogs I've ever owned and one is half pit, half terrier, so she's a very hyper one 😅. I wish more people would rescue instead of buying from breeders, but because they're worried about rescues being so dangerous they don't bother to try, of course they need training but people think no amount of training can help, and that's just silly. In a perfect world I would say many people shouldn't have dogs at all because it's a privilege.

[@sydney6107]

I work with dogs with varying levels of aggressiveness, sometimes it's just small things that set them off, like touching their paws. I always ask if their dog has a history of being aggressive, they usually always say no. Then two minutes late while I'm introducing myself to their dog, their dog snaps at my hand or their small dog doesn't like being picked up and their owner doesn't tell me until I go to pick up the dog and it starts freaking out. That history of aggressive behavior question is not a set-in-stone decision maker, it's just a way for me to think on how to work with the dog so as not to frighten them and to know their limits. Owners will more often than not swear up and down that their dog is an absolute angel.

And nearly every time, that dog tries to BITE. Not "nip". It is SO SO SO important for dog owners to not put on blinders and downplay their dogs behavior.

Sem Fer I’m a dog groomer too. I know exactly what you mean by that...

[@hauntedshadowslegacy2826]

It's denial and avoidance. Whenever someone takes an ownership role of something, they feel a consequential connection. Whatever the 'object' of the possession does is seen as an extension. It also happens with 'parents' and children (I put the word 'parents' in quotes there because it's an unfitting word in this instance; parents do not 'own' their offspring anymore than a boss 'owns' an employee). Note: if you see a parent acting possessive of their children or their child's actions (e.g. 'yes, MY daughter is an amazing singer, and I raised her; are you proud of ME?'), take a skeptical and distanced relation with them. Possession over humans is a sign of narcissistic personality disorder. Never get mixed up with a narc. They will destroy your life if you give them the chance.

[@hirayeon1769]

Sem Fer omg saaame. im also a groomer and the second an owner tells me, “oh shes never bitten before, but she does get a bit nippy sometimes. she wouldn’t harm a fly” i 100% expect to be on the receiving end of some form of aggression. i wish people understood that giving us misleading information about their dogs behaviour puts both the dog and the groomer at risk

[@kerfluffle3781]

I think you're right that a dog that is described as 'nippy' or 'just grumpy' is more likely to bite a groomer or vet, but I also think its possible these dogs haven't 'bitten' anyone before their groomer or vet. Its rare that someone else will ever be as involved with handling the dog as those two groups, I don't even hug my puppy as close as the vet tech did today and groomers often take even greater liberties. And its hard to prepare the dog, when you dont know the professionals' routines. People often don't remember or think about each other's boundaries, let alone a dog's boundaries, so its easy to not consider that a seemingly harmless negative reaction under mild stress may escalate severely in the face of major stressors. This can be even worse with rescues where the owner might not even know all of their animals' stressors.

[@rebeccahicks2799]

"Till...one of us remembers to bring him back in!" The pause was her thinking of how to avoid giving Victoria a straight answer to her question. Older woman plain hates him, younger woman is too passive (notice how she's petting him (which is reward and reinforcement) as he's acting territorial towards the person at the door)). Dog isn't getting what he needs from either of them. Older woman knows he needs to know about boundaries, but doesn't know how to teach him other than yelling at him. Younger woman isn't trying to teach him in the first place.

[@gregcoogan8270]

she may have been trying to calm it down. People have to understand that animals are not humans. You cannot apply all of the same things on animals as you would on people. A pat on the back or a hug might help a human calm down, but for another animal, that could be interpreted as a form of aggression, or perhaps a positive reinforcement that leads the animal to believe its behavior at the moment is acceptable. However, the principles of the psychology of learning (positive/negative reinforcement for example) does work across the board (you'll stop going to your job eventually if they stop paying you, right?) but, different things work for different organisms. People also have to remember that animals are not capable of the same complex cognition that we are. Some of the great apes and ceteceans have some of that higher thought process, dogs and cats have it to a limited degree, but, overall, they are not capable of "thinking" about their behavior like we can. That's another erroneous assumption that leads to the kind of bad behavior we see in this dog.

Problem is that “mom” pouts like a child around grandma and clearly likes that the dog scares grandma. Mom locks the dog outside every day for 8-10 hours and then allows it to run insanely around the house (and bit her own child at least once). She smiles when the dog lunges at Victoria and she doesn’t pull the dog back at all when it’s aggressively lunging at anyone coming in the house.

[@Overquoted]

Because they either don't understand dog behavior and how to modify it, or they're the kind of person who thinks their dog's desires overrule someone else's right to safety around the dog. The latter are the worst. I was about 9-10 when a friend's rott broke her chain and bit me. She hadn't actually been aiming at me though (me and my friend weren't near her when she broke the chain). She was aiming at a six-year-old who, I assume, had been annoying her. I got bit when the younger kid ran and jumped behind me. (I was a literal meat-shield.) My friend's dad insisted she wasn't a bad dog, that she'd just gotten upset by all the kids around and that it wasn't even that bad of a bite because the dog was missing teeth. But I still had a small chunk missing out of me and had to take rabies medication until the dog was tested. And the dog still got euthanized. In my state, any dog that bites someone can be put down by animal control. And generally, when a dog bites a kid, no matter how minor the wound, there's no second chances.

[@jocarless7526]

Because people become blind to their dog's bad behaviour, just like they do with their kids. It becomes bad gradually, so they get used to it and think that's just how the dog is, it's normal. As a trainer, I've had people say all kinds of ridiculous things to me when I ask them to tell me about their dog's problems. Things like, "He bites if you go near him when he's eating, but that's fair enough, all dogs do that, don't they?" Instantly making excuses for their spoilt little baby. Well, for the benefit of anyone reading this - NO, it's not normal, it's not acceptable, and all dogs don't do that!!!!! I currently have 8 dogs - different breeds, different sizes, from different backgrounds, some I've had from pups, others were rescued as adults, I have males and females, some neutered, some not, various ages and temperaments, and let me tell you, it's not just luck that none of my dogs are aggressive. I love them all but they're allowed to be what they are - dogs - and not confused and spoilt by being pushed into a role they don't understand, like being a surrogate child. They're all child friendly, dog friendly, groomer friendly, vet friendly......and it wouldn't even cross my mind that I ought to be wary about being near them when they have food or bones. When you accept responsibility for any animal, it's up to you to make sure they're not a danger to anyone, including yourself.

My upstairs neighbors do the same. They bought a Jack Russel. They regularly park him outside in our garden, chained to a tree. Even in summer when it was 30+ degrees celsius they left him there. Or in the garage, or in their appartment. He is usually left alone and most definitely not being walked twice a day. That dog barks at everything that moves. Even at me even though he should know me by know. I noticed that he is scared of me too. That dog never received enough attention, care and excercise, let alone any training as a pup. Even when they just got him they put him in a cage in the garden for hours while they went on about their lives. (Work and other hobbies) The dog doesn't listen, he even runs away from the property when not chained. I know in fact that they got the dog because they cant have any kids, and actually I am GLAD they can't have children, because if they can't even give enough attention to a dog bc everything else is more important to them, good thing they are not doing this to a kid!

"he's a bad animal" no you are a bad owner! and the bad behavior in ur dog is just the result of your behaviors.

That's why my dog hides in his room on his phone and is shy of his own parents.

[@melissamoore6539]

I watched a BUNCH of her vidoes when we got our husky puppy as we live in a small flat I wasn't to keen on getting my couch ripped apart after she gets older. It's AMAZING how much regular play and training has resulted in a super chilled out confident dog. She's not destructive. She's good with strangers. Outside of her teething phase she's never destroyed anything. It's amazing how much regular love, attention, and interaction can do! She's my best friend.

[@amandamassengill4135]

Can we all agree that Victoria is a QUEEN and handled that attack perfectly like the professional she is 👑

[@honeypeadigital]

No she didn't. What she did only taught the dog that when he does that, he gets the human to back away. Essentially she rewarded that behaviour. Why do you think she just said she won't touch bones anymore. No other dog expert would leave this unaddressed.

[@ElZedLoL]

So well she didnt handle it "perfectly" but thats not the expected reaction of anyone. It might not have been the most efficient for the dogs progress but in that sec its important, he lowers his aggression

6:51 How UNPREDICTABLE a dog can be if he's not trained sufficiently. Wow. That was brief.

[@mm-zm8ys]

That isn't about being trained, that's about his emotional state, he was on edge and had a history of being protective. He was insecure and yes, training does help lessen the anxiety and all that, but it's not entirely about training.

[@jessica6571]

@@mm-zm8ys exactly. You can have a highly-trained dog that has behavioural issues. Training is about teaching a dog a learnt response to a cue. Behaviour is about reacting in a way guided by an underlying emotional state. You don't simply train a dog to not react like you would them to sit or stay. It requires a tailored approach, an understanding of behaviour and an owner that has a flawless ability to read their dog's body language.

[@robin212212]

It's not even a matter of being trained; it thinks it is the pack leader of the house. The owner babied the dog too much and is too lax with it.

“Time outs” do not exist in nature. There is a huge difference between human and dog psychology.

[@brennamaycoleman5307]

I agree. Though I will say when my dog gets overly excited or anxious, I will put her in her crate for a couple minutes so she can calm down and feel safe again before coming out. It has definitely helped her feel better in herself. It's kind of like a time out, but not as a punishment, more of a 'take a break' sort of thing if that makes sense?

[@20PINKluvr]

When they're trained to know what "time out" is, like their crate, they go

[@arielcontreras-guerrero4714]

Humans: Time outs. Dogs: Corrections. I've learned a lot about dog psychology and training recently, it's all quite interesting.

[@ESNDN]

20PINKluvr When the dog is aggressive, like the one in the video, removing them from the situation instead of the correcting the behavior is a problem.

[@ESNDN]

brenna may coleman you are correct. The crate should be their safe haven and not used as a punishment. Being aggressive and being anxious are totally different behaviors. So I understand your comment. However, this dog needs immediate correction for its aggressive behavior.

[@lanakinz]

That grandma’s smile vanished real quick once she figured out she also had to put work into the training. 😂😂😂

[@stealthwarrior5768]

Yes, grandma has been stressing the dog because she hates the dog and wants rid of it so she can take everything her daughter loves from her and she can then take over her daughters life.

I agree that he deserves a better life and he is in no way a "bad animal", but most of this came from her not knowing, so instead of stamping her as a bad dog owner, it should be an unknowing dog owner, which is tbh just as bad. I cant understand why people get dogs and learn nothing about how to have a dog!

Went through to the kitchen and heard this weird noise coming from the living room so turned on the light and there he was rubbing his mucky self and paws all over my clean washing. Totally loving it. Whites as well. Dragged it from the couch onto the floor just so he could dry himself so shouted at him and the next whoosh straight under the bed knows I can't get him. He knows he's not allowed on furniture if he's wet and mucky only when he's dry. And he took it upon himself to dry himself all over my whites. I wanted to be mad cause I just done it but the way he ran and made a break for it under the bed I couldn't hold my laughter in lol As for your dog being 6 months old he's just a pup he will still have the cute factor the can't get mad because he's just a pup and will be funny because of his reaction when running away my dog is 9 he knows better. 😂
