That’s a great point

I was literally just thinking that yesterday.

[@iris7484]

@@ColdestRage303 yeah I forget who I was watching, someone was talking about truly dominant dogs and that they're chill most of the time until they don't want to do something, and then they're ready to stand their ground in a way that can ugly. For general purposes though submissive-dominant is a spectrum and most dogs are somewhere closer to the middle.

[@Flippokid]

@@ColdestRage303 Well, it's all on a scale so they're on the dominant side instead of the submissive side. Yours sounds further up the scale. Regardless he was arguing against the people that say that dominance isn't even a thing to begin with, and that it's debunked that dogs like yours are wired the way they are etc etc.

[@Flippokid]

@@ColdestRage303 "Like in a wolfpack the other dominant wolf will go to fight the alpha one day for leadership." That's been debunked. Well, no, not completely. This behavior was observed in replaced wolfs that were thrown together in enclosed parks. This led to the assumption that it must work the same with dogs. Then it was discovered that natural wolf packs don't display this social dynamic at all. That led to people claiming that no dominance is ever a thing. The truth is complicated. Dogs are not really trying to take over the house. To me it sounds like you based your training completely on dominance, rather than leadership, and that resulted in the dog rebelling against you. Perhaps you punished him too much, and he had enough and didn't take it anymore. (Like he perceived your command as incoming punishment). Not saying this is what happened, but that's how I can imagine a dog attacking its owner. I've never heard of a dog that's raised properly going against its owner. It's pretty much unheard of.

Ive seen this before in person. I live next door to a family that has 2 free roam big dogs. They are brothers and they had a incident a few years ago where they attacked a smaller dog and started to eat him alive. The owner of the smaller dog tried to scare them off with a stick but they didn’t care. She got in her car and acted like she was going to run them over and that’s when they left. The smaller dog made it to the vet, but they ate his entire abdomen and he didn’t make it. They are still free roam btw. Oh, and no other murders happened since. They attacked my elderly dog before, but they were chased off.

A huge problem is that people don't recognize dog body language. Once you understand it the lens at which you view dogs completely changes. All the subtle motions, head moves, eye contact, posturing etc etc. It becomes crystal clear. The nose touch was like when wrestlers in a tag team match high five. It's was basically a "ok let's do this".

[@tempelhof1986]

Absolutely. They are about to start hunting. I would not let those two dogs live in the same household together. They are a very effective team with the female being the instigator and the male being her back up. Very bad situation.

Some people don’t understand the difference between discipline and hitting/abuse. That grab with Jax was a great example, discipline without hurting. It’s the dog version of a time out.

@@Robynhoodlum My dog learned the most when I would be clearly disappointed in him. When he was learning to camp with my family ( a lot of people and a lot of dogs ) he was mean to some dogs while playful with others. Any time he got aggressive to a dog, i would simply put him in the kennel "time out". Disconnecting them from the pack when they do wrong, goes a long way in my experience. My dog doesn't like being disconnected from the pack. But if he can't play by my rules, then he doesn't get to be apart of the pack. After a 15-30 min time out. He comes out and is playful with the dogs that he was aggressive with.

Fantastic content and commentary throughout. I love hearing Joel's masterclasses in dog body language - they're a privilege to watch. Just today I saw a local purely positive training group posting a tick-list meme from COAPE talking about (amongst other things) saying yes to "trainers who train with rewards, treats and play" and no to trainers who "use leash corrections" and "talk about dominance." There is no way this group will EVER have encountered dogs like this brother and sister! And I hope for everyone's sakes they never do, frankly! This brother and sister would end up killing another dog - and possibly badly injure a human while they were about it - if the only training approaches were "rewards, treats and play"! Yes, maybe when they were LITTLE ... but for heaven's sake, not now! Another of my favourite multi-approach trainers often talks about meeting the dog's behaviour with commensurate reaction ... not too over the top and not too soft, but equal. Which is just like Joel, who we've all seen will have a hugely different approach than what he's using in this video to young or nervous dog. In other words, you have to meet fire with fire to fix a huge problem ... not with a tiny squirt gun of water!

[@katec708]

amen!! perfect point about reacting with equal energy. a correction should always reflect the offensive action. dont want to be too soft so it doesnt land, but not also over the top when its not needed. theres definitely a balance to be found.

Brilliant, Joel - yes, 2 dogs, strongly bonded, living together... I have that, too, and they do act as one single organism; very different dynamic than when it's just 1. That started when I brought the younger dog home as a puppy - the older German Shepherd had never been close to another dog in our home, but with that new puppy, things clicked; and they had this connection, almost instantly. And even though the older one is not dog-aggressive - she tries to be when the younger one is play-bowing to the neighbor's dog at the gate, for instance: That happened yesterday, the older dog saw the other 2 dogs having a friendly meet and sniff at the gate, and she rushed down, all hackled up, growling and barking. Of course, we strongly corrected this, but jeeez, Joel, just imagine these were 2 massive American Bulldogs like the ones you are dealing with. Things could get pretty nasty pretty quick.

But when you're dealing with animals that have the ability or intent to be aggressive or dangerous, it's not something you can just be nice and soft about. It's important to be the one in charge.

I have 5 pitbulls and 1 American Bulldog..and you are correct about dominance and sibling teamwork to intimidate other dogs

[@augustbrady6948]

I’ve got a 4yr old submissive male American Bully/APBT mix and a 1yr old female corgi who is extremely dominant. She regularly instigates rough play and this is giving me a lot of great tips

how on earth could these dogs not be able to sense the Prince is so classy intelligent and strong he is beyond there league

[@cotemp871]

Best trainer I've ever seen. I know soany people who try and treat there dogs and train there dogs like they're people and never get anywhere with them

[@petecarpenter7679]

Beautiful dogs !!

[@missonmanband19]

Outstanding video as many of us have siblings dogs. Yes siblings become a team and they feed off each other. Thanks for helping us know how to recognize this behavior and defuse

I am happy to see these 2 again-I was wondering how they are doing 🐶. Thanks for sharing a continuation!! Joel- after what day in your board & train was this video taken? They are certainly a challenging pair, which probably no other trainer in SD would take on except YOU 🎉 I can’t wait to see their transformation after they complete their B&T with you!

Hi, Do you happen to know who bred these 2 amazing American bulldogs?

[@DavidBatson]

Remarkable job, sir. Well done.

[@KingsMom831]

Excellent video! One of the reasons I am so fond of this channel is because Joel documents stuff like this. Not only does he show behaviors like this and the body language that goes along with it but he shows us how to work through it and progress and help our dogs.🙏

Wow! Glad I stumbled upon this video. We have a nine week old American Bulldog puppy and we can tell that she’s going to very stubborn.

[@BabyBugBug]

I watched the first 10 seconds of your video and I already approve. This is how I am with my dog. He’s my baby but I am very stern and take no crap from him.

[@christinaheater2500]

Great video! Can you do more with siblings & multiple dogs? Rough play, walking multiple dogs, making friends, when to train separately vs together. I have 2 GS/lab mix sisters. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!

[@johndel2697]

I have no dog training experience. Yet my dominance leads all

[@cantinandaba4419]

Prince is such a good dog. No matter how many times I see you figure out and change these other dogs, your Prince will always stun me. What a great dog!!

[@RBannwart71]

That frenzy u saw and mentioned, is when they get so amped up and instincts take over, that is when bad things happen....I love that finally, a trainer says like it is...u need control and you won't get it with treats and good words all the time....

Excellent work I had an American Bulldog then rescued one off the street who was half feral. Both were 2 big guys. I was never able to completely control the adoptive one. Finally had to extract his canines or give him away because kept misdirection his aggression to my older boy. He lived with us 6 years but had to be put down due to cancer. RIP in peace León.
