It's so great Zak that you are actually working with dogs that have the issue you are addressing in the video rather than it just being theory!! Big thumbs up and you are helping me loads thank you!!
Yes. Most dog training videos are doing it on already trained dogs. So freaking annoying
I want to see zak with a big dog, I mean powerful breed of dog not a corgi 😂
My dog just bit me a few hours ago because of resource guarding. Should've seen this before.
cutietien18 did this training get rid of the guarding issue?
Thecrazedsurvivor lmao that’s making him afraid of you not respect you
Thecrazedsurvivor Yea it always will but try to reward him for obeying from now on because if continue it could lead to him tired of not being the alpha (because it’s degrading) and attacking
@@NadixGamer How does another dog respond to bad behavior in another dod? It becomes the alpha. It uses agression. The owner must be the alpha. In dog language, it understands agression and submits. The owner must correct bad behavior immediately. You dont just let a dog rule over you.
If your dog tries biting you again, smack it on the hind quarters. If it’s a smaller dog, pick it up and lay it on its back in an aggressive manner. Be the alpha
“They don’t know any better so don’t hold it against them, but be intelligent about the way you go about it.” Absolutely. It’s so important to remember that the dog needs YOU to train it different behaviour and not to hold it against the dog.
Thank you for making a REAL video about resource guarding showing a dog that is serious about guarding its bone. This was helpful. I've been using your strategy with my Red Healer/Border Collie puppy and it's working, but at times seems to be even worse. It's frustrating. Thanks for letting me know this is normal.
Hi! How is it now? Struggling with my corgi on this
I have a year old pitbull who has resource guarding and I want to do this but i really don’t wanna get bit....
I’m glad to find that it’s normal. I have a Labrador that is 1 and she just started displaying signs. I never had to deal with anything like this with my pitty. And so I was really disappointed and worried. So I’m just trying to learn everything I can and do the best I can to change this
Yea I’m glad to know this is normal and my dog isn’t just bad. I personally have never dealt with this. My previous dog, a pitt, was tolerant to anything I did. We were really close. My lab puppy just turned 1 and has started showing signs of guarding. It can make you feel sort of sad and worried. I’m doing a lot of research and started working with it right away. Some days are good and some not so much. I’m just trying to remain patient and continue with the work. Still it’s hard not to worry about the future.
She has never lunged but she freezes and stops eating when I go near her bowl. And she has growled and barked once. I need to do more work other than mealtimes more.
I thought I did what I was supposed to when she was a puppy to avoid this. But it didn’t work evidently.
My dog drops her bone on my lap I think because I did this training with her when she was a puppy. She is very generous with her toys and bones as am I with treats and praise. It's rewarding for both owner and dog when they respect you enough to bring you their most prized bone/toy/treat.
That's so cute! :)
That's a vital quality known as trust. Your dog is showing you how deeply he trusts you.
I used this video when I adopted my 9 week old Golden Retriever from a very reputable breeder in Michigan. He showed aggression at 9 weeks old! He is now 9 months old and he is totally chill with people taking his bones away. I didn’t have a social life for about 3 months but working on this every day after work with him was so worth it.
We have a 4 month old Goldendoodle who has started showing food aggression. Hoping this video helps.
Yeah mine showed same aggressive behaviour, she's 8 months old. I need to work on this and get the rest of family to help. I'm not so brave with dogs as I was bitten as a teenager.
To all the people here, how long did it take you guys to train the dog with this? I have a golden retriever almost 4 months old has bit me a good number of times and I had to go to the doctor yesterday because of his bite. Also, does age also play a part because maybe he is too young and will chill out with his toy as he gets older.
@@UtsavChaudhry it took me a solid 2 weeks to feel comfortable. Your pup is still so young and there’s time to train good habits! High reward food is key. Like turkey or cheese. You have to establish a relationship where they understand that if they give up their current toy/food then they can get something even better! Plus it helps enforce that you’re in charge without being forceful or making them fear you!
@@UtsavChaudhry, it took me 3 weeks. One of the things that isn’t helpful from what I noticed is that your dog can sometimes expect a reward. They don’t normally revert back to resource guarding, but they can on rare occasions. What helps is to not interrupt them when they’re eating or chewing on a bone. At least, that’s my theory. And when I say interrupt: I mean, have an area for themselves where no one can walk by or possibly brush up on them. You might have to just train them longer with this method. Then just occasionally get closer and just gauge how close you can get. They’ll give you a warning with growling but if you notice they don’t - then you should be able to move your hands closer.
How do you stay so positive when he growls at you? I dont hurt my dogs at all, but it is very hard to keep your cool when your dog even thinks about making a noise torwards you
Exactly! Please what did you do to correct his behaviour?
@Somebody Else he bit me for the first time yesterday. I feel v hurt. Actually its about kitchen waste perishables in the backyard for compost purpose. He was at that. As soon as i approached him, he was already growling at me. And barked while i called his name & to stop. But i had some of his treats in my hand. Without looking at the treats as soon as i touched him, he bit me. My thumb was bleeding. It happened so fast. He's barely 3 months. 😔
@@KC-zg7th u gonna show him who the real boss, i always hurt my dog in moderate when she not compliance, she only dare to growl me when i pet her while eating, even that i show her who the boss nvr growl at u boss i’m taking absolute power of alpha
@@jimtan1990 That's the worst thing you can do, its incredibly foolish. It could very easily backfire over time and make her far worse in the long term when she just stops growling altogether and just goes straight to bite with no warning. You should not give advice to people if you use dangerously outdated aversive training techniques and still believe in that old fashioned Alpha nonsense either.
@@cbcdesign001 ohhh goodluck with u then, my malinois until now nvr growl n bark me, and only eat when i said (sapphire go!) i dint fucking force u to take my advice by the way
Pancake frightened me for a while there,but...Have no fear when Zak is near! Well done indeed! *thumbs up!*
Yeah try it with a goddamn husky. Damn near took my hand off. I've tried this unsuccessfully so far but maybe I need to use a better lure because his ordinary treats aren't enough.
PriceToPay get some heavy duty gloves to wear while doing this with a stronger animal I can’t believe this fool didn’t mention that
@@batmanandrobin250 i managed to train him. I wont say how because all the animal rights activists will hunt me down. #sometimestoughloveisthebestlove
PriceToPay i’d like to hear how you trained him, i haven’t been able to train my dog yet with positive training so i’d like to hear your method
It was amazing how you got through to Pancake and stopped him from guarding his bone. He was pretty aggressive at the start of the video. I thought he would try to bite you. However, you successfully distracted Pancake and helped him. All dog owners should watch this video. It will help both the owners and their pets. Thank you for making and sharing this video on TH-cam.
Pallavee Singh agreed
"Woah dude, chill" made me laugh so hard
he is so patient and calm. I end up in tears several times a week with my 3 month old puppy and her biting me/wrestling with my cat (who is not a willing participant). I wish I could keep it together like him
Aww ur poor cat same happens with my cat and dog
Can you make a video on how to stop resource guarding between dogs please? :)
MUCH harder to do and not possible using this method without professional help setting up the drills. Simply remove all valuable items from the environment when multiple dogs are present until you get some help and training done. Get professional help.
I have the same issues between my two dogs.
I still can't figure that one out... Lol feed them separate and I put toys in their crates, and they leave them in there when they're out around the house is all I can do... Doggy proofing the house has helped they still once in a while attack each other over god knows what? Then everyone gets a time out sadly its probably cuz they're both boys
My dog has started to hate when he’s one on one playing with a dog and a 3rd dog enters to try to play. He guards the dog he was originally playing with getting very offensive.
This is easier with a well behaved dog and one problem dog. I accomplished this by using a toy my puppy (problem dog) was guarding from my brother’s dog (well behaved). I would use treats as Zak does to get the toy from my pup. Then I would give it to my brothers dog. I kept my pup on leash to control him and had lots of treats to give him when my brothers dog had the toy. Then I had my brother dog drop it and gave the toy back to my pup. And just repeat many times for a few days. Take, treat, give to other dog, treat, give back to my pup, repeat. Having a good sit and stay is a good pre requisite and having both dogs on leash with two people is safest and highly recommended.
I was lost for a moment and stunned when I started to noticing my pup starting to growl at my sister when she goes for a toy he has. He just started to develop this so it’s luckily not like pancakes but I want to change this behavior ASAP. Zac is has great videos that help teach your pup to share and prevent this before it happens such as teaching to drop it-leave it. Glad this video was done so that I can start training right away
Did the methood work?
So grateful for this video . My 11months old golden retriever got this habit of guarding anything he finds around the house like a packet of chips or anything he gets his interest on and whenever we try to take it he just snaps at me . I pray this will help .
Just came across your channel a few days ago and I've been watching everyday since. Your videos are extremely helpful thanks so much for sharing with all of us!
Glad you're working with more difficult dogs now and more serious issues. Your videos helped me a lot with my rescue.
I have missed these actual training videos. Keep up the good work, Zak
Thank you!! I've been waiting for a video on resource guarding, this has also been an issue for my corgi, and I'm glad I was on the right track before seeing this :D
Brandon mcmillan is the most gentle, thorough and effective dog i've ever encountered. My friend and i love the dog show and never miss it. So many times we've shed a tear of happiness just seeing a dog's life changed forever when proper training is applied and they go on to live their lives the way they should. I have brandon's book th-cam.com/users/postUgkxK8-VQWpYThx4IC6MiIvb6VS1ebTzzdxq in two formats. Not only the paperback version but also the kindle version to refer to when i don't have the paperback along with me. I have used his methods with my cavalier kc spaniel and turned a non-disciplined furbaby into a companion who has traveled thousands of miles with us across the country. He is a near perfect dog thanks to brandon's methods. I don't get one cent of kickback for recommending brandon but i do it because i love dogs. They deserve to be given a chance. Brandon's mission in life - to rescue dogs and place them in a forever, happy home - is very dear to my heart. I recommend his methods to anyone who has a dog - young or old. I've seen him take even old dogs and teach them. Brandon was an animal trainer before his current mission. His parents were animal trainers. His methods are the best i've ever found. Your furbaby will thank you for spending the money on this book. Don't hesitate - it is worth every cent.
This video came just at the right time! We have a 16week old puppy and she started doing that with a few "special treats" and i was scouring the web to figure out how to stop that! Great tips and for sure applying right away!
This was so great to watch you work with a dog with real issues, like the dog with vacuum cleaner. I think how you maintained your calm energy is really amazing.
We adopted a fearful rescue and he’s made such huge progress building trust and teaching him how to walk on leash, deal with strangers working with a vet behaviorist and watching your vids have helped so much. Ours resource guards a little only with bones and not food so this gives me a great new framework to add to his training!
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Well done for putting this one out there Zak. Brave move. Good for you.
Thank you, thank you, thank you! My dog is wildly protective of his toys and now I feel like I know how to start approaching it.
I was really scared, as my pup was being crazy aggressive over bones and such... Now, after just a few tries, he is already improving!! Thanks a ton!!
I have a corgi just like Pancake and this is exactly what we're struggling with. Thanks for the advice. I look forward to working with her on it given what I just learned. Thanks!
What an excellent video, noticed some aggression from my rescue dog around particular treats and tried this and it had an immediate effect! Thanks so much!
Oh my gosh thank you so much I was looking for one of these type of videos!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!
Although I do not have a dog of my own currently, your videos give me confidence that when I do adopt I will be able to give him/her the best training possible to enjoy a full happy life together.
My dog has resource guarding. Thank you this was VERY helpful!!!
I just got a husky puppy who has a passive attitude. However, he revealed this possession trait and this video helped me teach him to break the habit, knows what “sit” is, and is learning what “let go” means. All in a very short amount of time.
I know the video is over a year old, but thank you for this video.
Don’t forget to practice this same exercise when giving their food. Go slow and use treats. But get to the point where you can take and give their food in the middle of them eating. My corgi puppy had a case of resource guarding too.
This is so helpful. My dog used to live in a pack of 8, and she was rehomed once before because she’s so protective of her stuff. They were not very nice to her and now she’s got this issue with bones ect. Let the training begin 😭
My pup is resource guarding me. He's 16 wks old, he came home with a food aggression, and i did this training and I worked with him, still working, for the last 8 weeks. He's stopping the food aggression and he's been growling at my family members who are his family too. I've never had a dog with any food or resource guarding issues. This is my cane corso pup, I've got mastiff experience, I've had mastiffs my entire life. Now my daughter and family members walk down stairs and I'm in the kitchen, he growls, every time someone walks near, he's growling and today he snapped at my daughter's leg. She's 17 and she's upset, her feelings are hurt, she's done nothing but love him and work with him on his basic obedience and play with him etc etc... A family pet, and being treated as such, however, he's been getting more and more guardian, owner, aggressive with any one approaching me. I immediately tell him no, i walk to my daughter and I'm really trying to show him, she's mine, don't go there. But ive never dealt with this, again he's 16wks. I don't understand why he's behaving as such, any advice?
What ever happened with your pup? I am in a similar situation with our 8week old Corso pup. Wondering how things turned out for you.
2 years old comment, whats up with your dog?
Loved this one!. Most videos are so easy for you, but when I try t at home , not so much.. This one was very genuine and it help to see that it can be even hard for you sometimes, so I don't need to give up when training doesn't go as in your videos..
im getting a corgi in 7 days and i am so happy to have found your videos with pancake! im so excited and feel more confident now that i know how they interact and how to train them
Hey Zak! I would love to see a video about incorporating training with young children in the home. We just adopted a toy poodle and my son is three and I would love to learn some tips on how to create a more positive relationship between our son and our precious poodle! Thanks for great content!
Can you make a video on how to address this when the aggression is towards other dogs, rather than people?
I’m working with a rescue that was abandoned without food as a puppy, and now has deep fears about losing food, and is even toy guarding now despite working with her consistently to ease her fear. I could really use a more experienced trainers thoughts (that uses techniques like yours).
Thanks, as a dog lover and trainer I really love and appreciate your channel and what you do to validate this more compassionate type of dog training.
I welcome any other trainers thoughts as well. Just want to help her, she’s a really good dog.
This is my issue. Rosie is fine with me and food, but she resource guards towards my other dog. I feed her in her crate, and the other dog ignores her, but that doesn’t stop Rosie reacting. And she also thinks every toy is exclusively hers
Thank you for this video. I needed it. My dog showed food aggression to me for the first time today. I think he was extra hungry, so that didn’t help anything. But it kinda freaked me out, because he’s been sooo good. This video made me feel better. Ty!!
Thank you for showing the actual ups and downs of the training process rather than cutting out the middle part and jumping to the positive progress.
Great video, Zak. I have a Japanese Akita who just revealed this behaviour. I know the breed can be challenging but with this technique, I feel confident that I can undo it, as my training has been very successful thus far. If it works, I’ll keep it in my training itinerary and you’ll get the credit. I’ll keep you posted.
Yesterday my GSD puppy snapped and growled at me when I tried to take him away from his treat/bone. He’s 16 weeks old and this is the first time this has ever happened. I used to be able to just pet him while he was eating or take away his bone and everything was fine. I’m not sure what to do because we are still working on ‘leave it’. I don’t want this to develop into a serious problem because when he will be grown up, I wouldn’t wanna go near a food aggressive GSD while he is eating.
I wouldn’t want to go near any dog with food aggression if they have a bone
Mine is 24 weeks golden retriever . I'm having the same issue. Has the problem been solved.
My 1 year old Labrador just started with this behavior. And thinking back, I remember noticing she ate way too fast all the time. I think it was taught while with the litter. I’m taken aback because my last dog, a pitty, I could do anything and she never once growled at me. So I’m trying to learn. I was upset at first but I’ve realized this is natural. So now I’m just trying to fix the issue before it gets worse. They make it look so easy though. Hopefully something prevails
Thank you for this! I have been watching your dog training videos for research as I am getting a miniature poodle in 10 weeks. I feel more ready to take care of my first ever puppy.
You are just breath taking.
Great stuff Zak, your book is in my next episode :) Love this channel!
Buddy The Borador you are regular in watching George
Pro Venom yeah I watch him all the time! I love his stuff
Good boy Pancake! So cute!
GROSS
Good job!!!! This was so well done and ensures that the dog isn't stressed and makes him trust you. A lot of dog trainers try to intimidate them away from the food or resources that they want, and I'm glad that you're showing people that that isn't the way to deal with dogs.
Thank you exactly. My cousin got a golden lab. She just gives her the bone and lets her be. So if h get close she starts growling. My brother on the other hand thinks she needs to be punished and he’s gives it to her and when she growls he yells and sometimes what’s yo hit her. I wanna train her but with no one here cause they don’t know how to do it and don’t do anything about it. Atleast not the right way
I have a golden retriever puppy my very first dog ever at 30 and she is very protective over her bones and new toys...it’s very stressful. I am going to try this and I really hope it works. Thank you so much for sharing this! I love your channel and you have been so helpful to me and my pup.
I like how he puts up a portrait of the dog he uses in the video
I love pancake and all the dogs you work with
My dog resource guards food, socks, paper and can be very snappy. We have been trying this idea of training for a while and are making progress. This is great information Zak, thank you. If you are ever in the U.K. We love some more tips!!!
Thanks for the tips. Easy instructions to follow and straight to the point.
Pancake is such a cute name for such a cute doggy!
What’s odd is my dog used to be food aggressive when she was little and then one day just stopped... I never worked with her like this even though I probably should have...and now 8 years later she amazes all my cousins when she lets me just grab a fallen bone from her in the kitchen or stick my hand in her bowl while she’s eating to check how much food she has left
Good for you my dude
its probably her twin sister- whom no one really knew about !
@@NikitaSharma-bs4gg 🤣🤣🤣🤣
thank you for the advise before zak! your videos are the best!
Finally! Have been waiting for this video since a long time!
Thank you for this video, my 4 month golden doodle just growled/snapped at me this morning because I tried to pet her while she was enjoying a bone filled with PB - I was so sad and honestly hurt because she has always been so sweet lol I worked with her for a few minutes using the tips in this video and she let me pick up the bone and put it back multiple times! Its so sad when your little 3 lb puppy becomes a "teenager" with an attitude lol thanks for the tips!
Same here, I have been coping with this from 4 months to little over a 1 year now. I'm desperate to stop my golden doodle's aggressive resource guarding- just got bit hard twice and it's bleeding.
Same, same, same. Goldendoodle 5 months did this to me today and I wasn’t even going to touch him or the bone I was just near him picking up my children’s toys.
@@williamrodriguez7126 so this make me sad. My goldendoodle is 5 months and you’re still having this issue over an year? Wow I hope I can get this fixed
@@coaluck Thank you so much for your concern! We're going to get professional help and work on it! Otherwise, he's a very loving doodle :)
YES! We've been working on this exact thing with my GSD/Belgian Malinois cross with a local trainer who uses positive methods like this. Funny thing is, she rarely guards food. More often it's things like a piece of garbage she snatched out of the trash, a shoe, or her vomit when she occasionally gets sick. I'm a strong believer in positive reinforcement training as oppose to cruel shortcuts like prong or e-collars. Unlike those methods of force, positive reinforcement strengthens the bond of trust between dog and person.
My GSD/Husky mix does the same and this training method doesnt work because she prefers the piece of garbage over any food. So the only thing that works with me is picking the dog up and talking to her like a small kid who has been slightly naughty.
What is weird about my dog is that she only pretends to snap. Once she accidentally hit my husbands hand while snapping(he never pulled away) but she was so shocked herself that now she gives everything away to him willingly.
Didn't work with my German shepherd :( she just bite me and took the treats I ended up having to start popping her cus sadly she thought she was the Alpha
Prongs and e-collars are not “cruel.” They are useful tools that do not harm a dog, cause pain, etc when used properly. There are specific circumstances in training when both of these are appropriate. Stop perpetuating myths.
I have the same dog gsd / malinois cross and I’m having a lot of difficulty with training him, he is stubborn ☹️
@@nannoreul How is zapping your dog or applying poking pressure around their throat not cruel? I do my research, and prong and E-collars are abused to intentionally cause pain to force compliance. They are torture devices that force a dog to obey out of fear, not loyalty.
Wow 🤩 I am AMAZED and super thankful I found your video! This works! It’s a wonderful exercise and video! Thank you 🙏
Zak your videos has been really helpful to me and many of us here. Thank you so much for making such awesome videos for beginner trainers like us ...and I recommend everyone to subscribe his videos. ..it's genuinely worth taking your time watching his videos. .
I’ve been pet sitting and walking for almost 4 years in my area and this is the number 1 issue I come across and have been bitten during interviews when the owner was simply showing me where the food was located. Thank you so much! Is this also the technique used if your dog is protective of a certain space in the home like a certain room or the couch?
My dog recently started that behavior
She was never like that we were so good for a year and now she's so protective of anything she claims as hers
Like she has smth in her mouth and when I try to take it out ( I always do that every once in a while to show her okay now it's over I end it)
She just
Growls and tries to really bite me
She's a shepherd so I'm kinda nervous ngl

@@cromizome6692 same. My dog literally just bit me two days ago
@@cromizome6692 yeah, I’m in the same boat.. the problem is my dog doesn’t get aggressive over things that he’s allowed to have, I can take a tow away from him anytime I want. He will just find a sock, or a napkin, or something from outside, and then we can’t take it away from him without almost losing a finger
@@lilybug96 he bites me everyday
@@loganroca exactly. Now he gets mad when I literally say no
This is so incredible. Thank you.
Wow!! Amazing, my 3 months old Candy, also a corgi, has the same issue. I'm glad to see it addressed right away, before it gets worse. Very insightful video!! Thank you for his video :)
What about resource guarding around other dogs?
It's the same premise you have to trade for a higher calue reward for the thing or human it's fixated on. You can teach your dog a 'out' command. So say there's a toy they want on the floor you can throw a higher calue treat and say out until your dog can do an out command consistently food aggression also can be resolved by handing feeding dogs
Our dog, Holly, will guard me. If another dog that she doesn't know comes towards me she'll get very barky and growly at them. If I try to introduce treats as a distraction in that situation then that just gives her something else to get possessive of
James Taylor you need a behavioralist. I can't really help you without seeing it. I'm working with a dog right now who resource guards her humans you need to manage your dogs behavior because what's likely happen is fear behavior. ( Can't say 100% without seeing it) you have yo counter condition the dog to the stimulus.
James Taylor you don't want to distract her you want to reward her for positive behaviors. It's replacing her negative action with a positive one.
I realise people will shout at me, but you need to correct your dog for guarding you. You need to protect your dog, not the other way around so you need to stop him from guarding you and show him you guard you (and him). You decide if an incoming human/dog/whatever is a threat or not, not your dog. He'll be a lot happier for it.
when the dog is a corgi you don't need much courage but try this with a mastiff or other large breeds 😂
I'm literally trying to do this with a god damned Siberian Husky
Arciel feel you, i'm doing it with two male boxers
im tryna do it with a german shep i nearly want to beat his ass LMAO he like a yr old

@@TOPTENWORLD0 yep giant fur ball
Thanks Zak~ this is was great information that I really needed to know. I'm going to work with my puppy Marcelo with these lessons. I also encounter these same issues when we are outside and he picks up random objects from the ground~ sticks, stones etc. so hopefully by working on them inside under controlled circumstances we can curb the outside behavior as well.
When you have to bribe your dog to behave, you are encouraging them. You are showing them that what they are doing is working. That’s like picking up a baby every time it cries. You love your dog, it needs to know how to love and trust you unconditionally. Respect is a huge part of that.
Dogs definitely understand respect, they are demanding it when they growl at you. Respect me or I will bite you.
Omg pancake is so cute i love him so muuch
Isn't he gorgeous!
This was intense stuff 😂
Great video. Thanks, Zak!
I am glad you did this video as one of my rescue dogs is VERY possessive over bones and chews. I can't wait to try it, thank you so much! :)
I have also recently got your book and I've only read a little bit but loving it so far!
were you able to get rid of this specific behavior; your feedback as of today?
much needed :)
My pit just snapped at me I’m even scared to try this 🤣🤣
I have found that puppies always do, but eventually grow out of it around 18months. Well, at least all of my dogs have.
My 2 pitts resource gaurd from each other, they dont from me. And its been getting worse with them attacking each other more freq since xmas. 1 dog is from the pound i got her at 6 months 2 years ago, the ither was a rescue we found out in middle of nowhere she was malnurished and at brinks death a lil over a year ago. They instantly go for each others ears and throats. Tonight it happened again and i got bit because i had to use my hands to unclench the newer dogs mouth off my older dogs throat. Does anyone have any experience with this, as again i said this only happens with each other not me, they seem to know im alpha, the energy between each other is the problem wirh this resource gaurding
I work in Rescue and always direct adopters to your videos for guidance!
Thank you. Your videos have helped me a lot!
I have been using thisas a handy reference book th-cam.com/users/postUgkxGQVgV21bQ7B9b9duQ1ByImyT9xHbjOKq . I read through the book and enjoyed the little glimpses of examples. I love that this author believes in rescue dogs. The tips and training has been invaluable and gave me moments of.... "how simple why didn't i think of it" so it's been a great tool. Thank you!

WHY ARE YOU SOOI GOOD EITH DOGS I WANNA BE LIKE YOU IM A DOG PERSON AND I WANT TWO DOGS...A GOLDEN RETRIEVER AND A GERMAN SHEPERD
My dog resource guards everything he gets his paws on. He got his paws on a piece of paper and he did that little growl and tried to bite whenever anyone even went near it.
Edit: he doesn’t seem to do this with food though. It’s like he knows he’s not supposed to have something and that’s why he guards it so much.
Yes! Our rescue dog is exactly the same!! Only guards what he is NOT supposed to have. And he gets very aggressive and even bites. I'm at a loss how to stop it.
Same my dog gets something he shouldn’t have then you try taking it he bites you has bitten my mum badly
Such a great video! I’m going to try this with my dog
ah thank you ive been looking for this can't remember what part of my study guide its in recourse guarding. this video helped asap.
I’d love to see him do this with an aggressive resource guarding pit bull
It works I’ve done it
Jeremey Belgrave funny maybe you should make a video
Thanks for the video! How can I do these exercises with my puppy if the only time she starts resource guarding is when she's gotten something in her mouth that she's not supposed to have (which is a lot, usually outside) we've taught her leave it and she mostly responds to it but sometimes she gets something without us noticing and then she has something in her mouth that's dangerous for her. We try to exchange it for a treat but she won't take a treat or any food (and we don't usually have real meat on hand), and I don't know how to do exercises about it because she never gets aggressive over her food or toys or anything else. Please help!
We're having the same issue with our puppy, how is yours now?
My chow chow but my brothers lip in half with his k-9 tooth(longest tooth) and needed 11 stitches I been watching your videos with my old husky and shes was the smartest dog ever she acted totally human I just want to say thank you zack you really helped me with your videos
Thank you for this. SUPER USEFUL!
Ok, but how to deal with it when he's guarding an actual food. Like a chicken bone, that is higher value than the treats?
Keep him on leash and if he bites, helicopter his ass
My problem is that my dog doesn’t get aggressive over things that he’s allowed to have, I can take a tow away from him anytime I want. He will just find a sock, or a napkin, or something from outside, and then we can’t take it away from him without almost losing a finger
I have the same problem
Would luring away with a treat help? My dog will bring random things into the house from outside, and the best way to get it away from him is the old switcheroo.
@@amandaallinson7839 yeah it did work, but he learned fast to just ignore the treat. He thankfully grew out of it/ we worked with him more and he hasn’t shown any aggressive in maybe 3 months

OMG I LOVE your teaching soooo much!!!
I have no :personal interest in the sub ject and yet I'm hooked and i just subscribed!
Fascinating!
Thankyou!
Thank you for this video! My dog is a golden retriever mix rescued from a hoarder situation and he's extremely food aggressive. He even gets upset when we kennel him while we are cooking or eating...growling and snarling at my husband. At first we thought he was hurting somewhere but after the vet cleared him...Charlie bit our 13 year old daughter because she got to close to him while eating. We've had him for 4 years now and this is the 1st time he's ever bit anyone...he only likes our immediate family and tolerates my mom when she comes but outside of that the vet doesn't even have a chance...So now we are going to be working on these great tips...and maybe some progress will happen...🙏 🙏 🙏 I love my baby boy and I don't wanna stop fighting for him...but I cannot have him hurting our kid again. So prayers this will work.
I was wondering: if he actually manages to bite you how do you react best to that?
Pablo Iranzo act like nothing happens. Never show fear
Pablo Iranzo beat the fuck out of it.. show domincance
You say NO as first step. Ignoring bad behaviors will not make them go away.
@@NewPhone-bs7mt Yeah, try to do that with my German Shepherd mix who has been for sure abused and beaten when he was a puppy, I'd like to see how good it goes when you find yourself covered in your blood because you tried just to lift a hand on him in an aggressive manner. The more aggressive the dog is the calmer you must be to achieve a good result. Aggression against aggression just makes things worse quicker and in a very very bad way. I talk from real life experience here. I got bitten several times by my dog, he got me terrified at first, but I knew it wasn't his fault and I noticed that if I or someone else tried to yell at him to stop him when he was aggressive he would get more anxious and he was more likely to go off and bite so I tried the other way: standing still while he was growling at me, talking to him in a very low and calm voice and asked him to sit and chill before giving him a treat. He is now a sweet boy who always looks for cuddles and ways to get a treat out of everyone's pockets. 😊 So dominance is for losers.
@@NewPhone-bs7mt Yeah, I figured you would say this. You are not very smart, are you? Anyway, it's not that easy to kill a dog who is biting your arm so hard you can't move it anymore, but I guess you'd have a gun in your other hand to do the job. You seem that kind of guy. Smart people use words, ignorant people use guns. Hopefully no dog will have the bad luck to meet you. Bye tiny brain. Keep trolling and have fun, I mean real fun, it seems you might need it.
Exactly What I need
Thanx a lot
But my dog sometimes roar while he is sleeping and when we sit near him he just tries to catch or hands and also when giving him something to eat...
Any Idea about that?
Clicker train him slowly that your hand in his vicinity + him staying calm means treats

I hope it gonna work for a 7 month dog
Will it work? :)
Yes it is never too late to teach something to a dog especially not in the first year.
You need to seek professional help as soon as possible. Your dog needs help.
You need to build trust and slow things down, use words like gently and soft when giving treats. Get him to work for everything he gets even water, sit, wait, look at me, now get it. You'll find if you slow things down it'll make a big difference. I'm guessing he's done this behaviour as a young pup and people have laughed and teased him. Not in a nasty way but this is the out come when you don't teach your pup bite inhibition. When my shepherds were young and we were playing, the second tooth touched skin they got a loud ouch, every single time. All my dogs have had great bite inhibition. Hope this wee bit of info helps, he's still really young, last thing plenty of praise when he does get it right and don't scold when he gets it wrong. Good luck
Thanks for this! Our dog is a rescue dog and had bone aggression when we got her. We simply stopped giving her bones but now that she knows more commands (including "leave it") we might try this out to see if it works.
Thanks zak - we appreciate what you do :)
"Whoa dude chill"
Misbehaved Corgster!?!? Impossibru
Thank you I'm going to try this!!!
Very nice... Short and simple
