The average person knows very little about canines. They purchase dogs purely on looks or wanting to "impress" others with their dog. Dogs with high drives and "heart" do not need to be strapped to a couch potato owner, PERIOD! People need training just as much if not more than the dogs they own.

I can confidently say this is the most accurate comment I've ever seen I recently purchased a German Shepherd purebred working line for personal protection reasons I got her at 8 weeks I specifically asked for the most high Drive puppy within the lot of 12 and I got my gorgeous Azula the third day that I got her I found myself complaining in about to yell at her to calm down I quickly corrected myself and convince myself that I asked for this now I have to deal with it and ever since me and her had a bond like no other Sheppard's are great breeds but when people say they are working dogs they're not lying if you're planning on having a shepherd and not doing physical activities are giving it a job to do you're in for a shitshow. 10/10 recommend sheps btw not one single regret

How is the smaller dog (dutch shepherd) on steroids compared to the larger and more muscled GSD? It is like saying Sylvester Stallone is like Arnold Schwarzenegger on steroids and crack. Also, as dog trainer, I would say that a GSD is also more cracked out than a dutch shepherd. I have never heard of an owner of a dutch shepherd coming home to find their dog chilling in the aquarium, or 24 feet up in a tree, or in a 7 foot deep hole, or balance precariously on the banister, or halfway in and out of a travel crate window... you get the idea, normally I just hear dutch shepherd tear stuff up and do some zoomies. Honestly the only breed I have heard more crazy stories about over the GSD is the Border Collie

​@@katsim6799 ​ Malinois are a version of Belgian Shepherd not Dutch shepherd. DS evolved alongside humans where as BM were specifically created. What I meant was steroids usually means greater mass and more muscles. GSDs have greater mass and more muscle. I will revise my statement on the crack portion, because it is true that Malinois are faster and generally have more energy, but they tend to be more straight forward than GSDs, where GSDs tend to be more... kooky when bored. I was interpreting the adjectives as steroids>stronger, crack>crazier. But I guess if you interpret them as synonyms for energy or lack of impulse control then they would be accurate

Was a nice video. As loved the dog. Meaning she has true color. Excellent confirmation. Stock dogs herders my favorite s. I realize their has been some not issues over the name of the breed . So I'm a pure old line genitcs correct person. All headers are the same in a general aspect. From the Belgian Shepherds, or Netherlands shepherd, called the Dutch in this one. I due like watching the videos and by far I don't know it all. But I do still appreciate watching as it helps me see the issues of mistakes. Difference in training methods. This one though ummm for mature dog. She needs off camera and so much back to basics as I refer to. Yea yea. I know who is this guy. Even when training my clients show horses and mine. You have to go back to the basics. Love the dog but needs work. Good job on going over the obstacles. As stated be it a Belgian Shepherd, Corgy, Blue Heeler, Rottweiler, Australian Shepherds. Stock dogs have to have and house drive. That's their heritage. Good luck. But she needs back to the basics.

So many people don’t realize that protection dogs HAVE to have the BEST obedience. And not just sometimes, but at ALL times. That’s why they seem like someone literally flips a switch in their heads and turns them on and right back off at command. But the way they start is exactly the way you’re doing it. They have to be taught what is expected. Proud dad moment here I’m sure. Congrats on all your successes and I wish Georgie all the best of luck. With a little tenacity and good coaching from you, he will excel at this. You are a blessing for anyone who was considering these dogs as a pet. They are NOT a pet. They are a WORKING dog and HAVE to be treated as such first. Being a pet comes secondary to work.

@@Allenkcw not necessarily true you want your dog to be neutral and able to adjust to different handlers. You don’t want your dog to be put down if you were ever indisposed. There’s Igp dogs that have different handlers and trainers to achieve a final product. There’s successful dual purpose apprehension hard surface tracking dogs that have gone through multiple handlers. You really shouldn’t want your dog on edge as it could easily misread a situation you want superb public access, balanced nerves, killer drives, and phenomenal impulse control. Truthfully it doesn’t matter who feeds the dog the relationship builder is in the structured walk. For example the trainer can feed rations in obedience and the handler never feeds the dog once but if that dog is getting an hour walk with its handler daily the relationship will be remarkable.

You seem to be the only Shepherd/Malinois trainer thar makes sense! I got my Malinois from a rescue centre 9 months ago. He is now 18 months old and I have concentrated on training calmness, impulse control and not so small challenges. All the KZbin heros seem to concentrate on the easy stuff (chasing and biting) whereas you promote calmness and good manners, enabling owners to have cool adventures with their dogs. I've watched your previous videos since you started doing them and they gave me the confidence to get my first dog. Picking a Malinois could have a bad idea but a wise man once said "a tired dog is a good dog". Looking forward to this series of videos. Regards Stuart PS. We live in the UK.

By 10 months old he knew all basic commands in German @ english,then I also taught hand signals @ vocal cues. I was blessed with a very smart dog who is patient,gentle,@ very loving. He will be 4 yrs old in October @ I've not done any protection training due to an incident that happened with my 23 yr old son that really made a bad impression on my dog and he has been over protective of me since it happened to the point he bit my oldest son on the hip for moving too fast and reaching to hug me. He leapt off my bed @ grabbed his hip sinking all 4 canines in. I yelled OUT!! KENNEL! He released and kenneled immediately, but left 4 punctures @ dark bruising. My dog is 100 lbs, so now I'm very cautious about ppl getting too close to me .

Hats off to Georgie. It's not easy to keep going after a challenging session and getting bit. I hope he watches the video to see his own body movements. Especially about switching feet on the rope rather than turning & twisting it around himself. Being shorter than Dad makes it harder to keep the dummy out of reach. I appreciate your family's time in creating this video. I gained some insight to use on my GSD who doesn't want to give the fetch item back up. We made mistakes while having fun that I have to untrain. Best wishes.

The second dog knew exactly, with whom he can play his games and who will spoil it for it. This teaches a lot about life, even outside the context of dog training. It subsumes a ton of "failed interaction" situations which leave us to wonder, what the heck went wrong. It also shows, there are no shortcuts. To be able to walk the walk, you have to walk the walk until it works.

We have a 4 1/2 month old Czech line GSD (a 9 year old GSD as well). Our pup does not have the meth/crack head drive of the dogs you show cased today, thank goodness, but we have built her a little "small challenges" course and work with her daily with tips we have gotten from watching your videos. Thanks. We are going to have an amazing well mannered and polite dog in part from what we learn from you.

@lesliecronkhite a Dutch Shepherd and Belgian Malinois are a lot of dog. Both have their own qualities. But they are a lot of dog. As time has gone on since this original post found out he is Mal/ GSD. I had always thought I saw no Dutchy in him.

Stonnie, the biggest differences I see between you and George is your energy is much calmer and you have much better voice control over the dogs. George just needs to learn to remain calm and confident, which is hard as a teenager, and use his voice more. He's off to a good start and obviously has a good teacher.

He’s also... a kid? And his dad is a grown, burly man who’s voice has dropped. He’s trained tons of dogs throughout a longggg career, and this is the kids first time working with a breed of dog that frequently injures its trainers, whether or not it’s on purpose. That dog could seriously injure him and the kid knows that so obviously he’s not going to be perfectly composed.

As a trainer myself in the Netherlands i always say, loyalty between the dog and the human is the basics of owning a shepherd. I prefer the females because they are more loyal and more fearless when it becomes to protecting her family. Easy to learn the basics but also advance behaviour or commands. Like guarding, attacking, assistance, babysitting, ect. Great family dog to verry patient with kids and always keeps an eye open on them like it where her own. Great content though keep it up :)

I'm so glad Georgie has this interest! I love your other training, but it's really exciting & interesting to see you cover this type of training. Look fwd to the rest of the series and seeing Georgie and these two very different dogs learn and excel. I'm training our Euro Dobie - social skills (got him at 8wks, now just shy of 6 mos). I can totally understand how Georgie feels here - It's really hard to get all the moves right and timely (and early on, I got my hands/arms in the way plenty, lol). I recently started working with the trainer/breeder and what a difference it's made! I'm communicating much more effectively. Lots of work ahead, but we're having tons more fun & rewarding for the both of us. Keep up the great content, Dennis family!

Not personal protection, (we have a farm and he has a few jobs). He’s just 8 months old and so awesome. Thanks for this video, I’m going to break out the long line! It’s the missing link we’ve been searching for. Good job George!!!

OMG! Thank you for this video! It is unique authentic and describes my 11 month old male GS to a T! His behavior is exactly like goose, but he’s more aggressive and reactive. I am counting the seconds until the next video comes out. I am a single mama with just one left at home who is 21 very gentle meek and weak. She has a tender spirit and a compassionate heart and my GS bullies her a lot! I had her watch this video and she can relate to George. I respect and admire you for not being afraid to show a video of a dog who has impulse issues. It’s like you said. Some days he does real well and other days he acts crazy and I cannot work with him at all! Sigh! He destroys everything that is made of plastic, and has damaged window frames baseboards doorframes the barn door the deck planks etc. I have started him on CBD oil and that does seem to help. I get it from a very reputable company. Thank you again for this video. You are an answer to prayer. I have been advised by neighbors and others to get rid of my GS. I am not entertaining that thought at all . He also does the chasing of anything that moves has already been nicked by a car, and excessively barks. He has a reputation and the nickname of being the menace of the neighborhood. When I can afford it, I will be contacting you for a board and train! And train, and train!!!! lol

So happy I stumbled upon this! There's a wealth of knowledge in this video for teaching even non-dog trainers how to be calm around their dogs so that it can be reciprocated from dogs. I especially liked how the training session started with a course to kind of get the dog in the flow of things - almost like an intro between dog and trainer that sets the tone for the training session. George is doing great, especially after getting bitten. His patience is awesome, especially for someone of his age. Keep it up. :)

Hey George, I want to thank you for putting yourself out there so you can learn And all of us watching can learn. You are where many of us have been over the years. This is a dance young man and learning that dance takes time and patience. Stoney, thank you for putting your sons’s experiences online. I have learned exponentially minute for minute watching him and the dogs then you stepping in and going through each step. This has been Invaluable. It speaks to both you and George that the young man can take criticism and instruction from a parent showing respect and obedience. We homeschooled our kids and we got this type of learning in our home but many kids never get the benefit. The kids and the country loose as a result. George is a very, very lucky fellow!!!

Such a great video showing the personality of these working dogs. The malinois I worked with in the army were even crazier than this girl. So many great tips in this video that I wish I would have know when i first starting working with these dogs. ESPECIALLY the part about not yelling at them when you want a calm behavior. I would scream at my dog during an out command (and choke up on her collar) and couldn't understand why she wouldn't obey. One day I had her attacking my buddy in a training exercise. I hyped her up during the attack and yelled praise at her but when it was time for the out I just whispered it to her. It completely got her out of the zone and my calm tone of voice broke her mental lock on the attack. Her ears pirked up and she immediately released and came back to heal. Worked on her ever since. Not saying it's the way to go for every dog (I dont consider myself an expert) but that's the fun part about training. It's like a puzzle figuring out the most effective techniques for your dog. Keep up the great videos Stonnie!

We definitely bought a dog like Goose when we decided foolishly to get a Malinois as companion animal. It wasn't until she bit me in the face and sent me to the hospital that I realized we needed more training than Petco could offer. We refused to give her up, though it was tempting at times, and now we have a fantastic dog. I couldn't ask for a better companion. Trail running, cognitive games, fetch, and swimming have taken the place of work for her.
