Victoria's training techniques are so common sense but in your frustration, you don't think about them. A Chihuahua puppy compared to a Rhodesian Ridgeback cannot be trained the same for obvious reasons. This dog's intelligence is really showing, you're truly amazing Victoria!
That's one smart dog! And he's got wonderful owners, they love him so much. They are so willing to put in the hard work with him and he is a beautiful dog.
I LOVE that Victoria is back! I thought this was one of those shows that disappeared into the early 2000s only available on TH-cam! Imagine my surprise 🤗🤗🤗🥳🥳🥳🥳
Hi Sarah and Marin, I’m deaf and using America sign language from USA. I watched the other episode about Dalmatian deaf dog 🐶just like your deaf dog 🐶 I left the comment and I got some replies back also over 300 like 👍🏻 I was explaining how you can use hand signals like signs language. Example: no, sit, play, walk, sleep, eat maybe few more. At first, it be little hard but later your dog will understand better communication with you both. You can learn little few words with BSL British sign languages to your dog. I did with my cat Lacey. She knows few of them. She learned fast. Your dog loves you and smart! ❤️🤟🏻 your dogs are so adorable! Good Luck! 👍🏻😊
I love Ridgebacks so much!!! My boy is a RR mix - he was a handful as a puppy when we lived in an apartment, but since we moved to my house he's been absolutely perfect. Socialization was the key for him when he was a pup - it has made him a very chill and aloof guy, completely unbothered by just about everything (except abrupt loud noises 😆). He's definitely athletic so our favorite form of exercise is biking together. He trots along next to me as I bike. RRs are built for endurance running!
I had a dalmatian awhile back. Like the ridgebacks, they were bred to trot for miles every day with a cart or carriage. I read before I got one that they had A LOT of energy and I thought that just meant they needed to be walked once a day. Boy was I wrong!! These types of dogs need MAJOR stimulation and exercise!
Victoria’s reaction 18:42 😭😭😭😭 Deafness wasnt a plot twist I was expecting. They’re wonderful owners - lots of people would have given up on him. He’s a beautiful dog. I haven’t seen Victoria work with deaf dogs before. This was special and interesting. The owners look 10 years younger after Victoria’s help 😭😭😭😭
Wow! These are quite serious behaviours from the dog, referring to the mouthing. But the family is such an amazing family, and they truly love their dogs❤️ I am glad the dogs has the owner he has and he has such a great home❤️ Victoria never fails to help❤️
She summed up her problem right in the intro: "When he's a puppy, it's okay, but not now." Advice for all of you puppy-owners out there - Don't let the puppy do anything you don't want the adult to do.
Exactly! You’ve got to always think ahead. If you’re dropping bits of food off the kitchen counter while the dog is jumping up and begging as a puppy, think ahead to how you’ll feel when he’s doubled in height and weight, how will it be then? How will you feel? Will it be a pain? YES! So, think ahead!
I have one and she was a rescue. Returned twice before we adopted her. She was VERY hard work but she’s an absolute angel now thanks to everyone in our family agreeing on and committing to the same training techniques.
To those saying NEUTER THE DOG!!! He is very young, 7 months! Just big.. Both testicles have to be down and at 7 months old, both may not be down. Reccomend age is 9 - 11 months! These are experienced owners with RR and are seeking assistance when he's this young. BIG BUT JUST 7MONTHS OLD! AND DEAF!!!
it was like seeing our Astro during his first period at home from the shelter. same mouthing, same table dancing. minus the food stealing, but plus a HUGE separation anxiety. and he's hearing impaired too (but we found out only a few years later). he's a dogue de bordeaux mix, with a history of neglect, and we got him when he was already 3yo. a childhood friend of mine, a trainer who applied the same methods as Victoria, helped and guided us through the long journey of his (ri)education. it was hard work, but one of the most rewarding experience we've ever made. and the results have been incredible from day one. now Astro is a happy, healthy, spoiled rotten 9yo canine role model 😎❤
@@HumanimalChannel I thought he was only 7 months old? If so, they’ve already diagnosed his hearing issues and managed to get Victoria there! In only 5 months! Maybe my timeline is off?
Great episode! Victoria is so brilliant in noticing patterns, and envisioning solutions that a deaf dog will understand. Love the family, the dog, and- the last few seconds of the two dogs nuzzling.. :) So sweet! 💕
Just because it is cute as a puppy that doesn't mean it's a good thing at all.. You train the moment the dog comes into the home.. I have never had these issues with any of my dogs in 35yrs... He's also deaf so that is a totally different type of training as well.. I'm glad they got to one of the best trainers out there and got their lives back...
I'm so glad to see a puppy show! I've been loving Victoria for 13 years 😍. My new 6 month puppy needs different signals than my last doggy. More shows please 🙏.
I found that a quick lift of my knee as my boy jumped discouraged him. It was not violent, but kept him from put his paws on my chest which was the reason he jumped up. He eventually gave up. Patience with these RRs. They are more than worth the effort.
Beautiful dog, im so pleased you didn't give up on him. Being a dog with a disability he would have spent a long time in a shelter or been put down. He is a very smart dog, he just needed direction. Good luck and enjoy your baby.
I have a Rhodesian Ridgeback/Doberman mix as a pup she had 5 hrs a day of running and socializing .After age 3 she slowed down.She is now 8 and is a couch potato unless she hears something unusual. She's a true love bug now.
I may be being uncharitable to my doggos, but my ridgebacks have been rather dim. Very sweet and eager to please, but not the sharpest knives in the drawer. Perhaps that's just because I've been comparing them to my notably clever dachshund, though, so they're held to an unfair standard. Ridgebacks are wonderful dogs, especially as they mature.
We have two Rhodesian Ridgebacks. Their personalities are totally different. The older male is very reserved and doesn't trust strangers. The younger female is an extrovert and extremely energetic. She also figured out how to unlock some of our security doors if the key is inside the lock. Both are very intelligent and active. These dogs seek eye contact and hold the gaze. They read your body language. They do very well with hand voice commands, combined with hand signals. The male weighs 50kg, and the female is 30kg. They seem not to know their own strengths. They are wonderful, loyal, and eager to please animals once they are trained. They are as fast as lightning and need running space.
My mom had one, and oh boy! Lol. When they came to visit and I owned a chihuahua and 4 pit bulls? My mom's dog SASCHA, was the live wire and the love. She was always welcomed, but so rambunctious. Good memories, need big yards.🙏💝
Loved this episode. But as someone who’s owned 3 Rhodesian Ridgebacks over the years, can I just say for the record: Most ridgebacks are WAY heavier than 38kg!All of mine were 50kg+
@@bertellijustin6376all our Southern African Ridgebacks have been at least 45kg, with the males being over 50kg. This is going back to the early 2000s. Not sure if it's a purely British/American or even a recent thing. I've definitely seen significantly smaller Ridgebacks as well, though. Probably not over 40kg, if that.
Ridgebacks are smart and the most bullheaded dog to train but once they got it they are the best dog you can have! Loves the whole family Also they need to get energy out to focus. They can be addicted to food can make it easier on training. They need a strong repetitive owner.
My dog "Hank" does the same thing as that dog in the episode! He mainly does this whenever we return home from work. The rest of the time he's pretty laid back.
Amazing good work. I wouldn't have guessed that. It was only after you were doing all those changes and the dog was calmer, that it was noticable to me.. I would definately do a clap test if I ever got another dog.
Its one thing to have an unruly pup to try to train.. but to have one partially deaf, or hard of hearing? Imagine.. just trying to get the pups attention, and imagine how pent up he feels without most of his hearing. No wonder he acts up. Its truly wonderful to see these people have attempted to compensate and train him. They may have things a bit out of order, but theyre trying, and theyve done at least modest research -- theyve already put effort into it, and are actively trying to make things work -- they just need a little help and clarification.
Ridgebacks first and foremost need to Run Run Run! A tired pup is a well behaved pup! They really are the “navy seals” of the canine kingdom. Powerful hunters that need a disciplined training schedule the first 2 years. Males also are especially intelligent and require positive reinforcement. This episode is a great example
I have 2 rhodesian ridgebacks and they are both very well trained and very well behaved. But with rhodesian ridgebacks you MUST train them to a higher level then a typical pet dog.
My ridgeback use to drink tea from cup&saucer ☕ without making noise after my mom made it for guest, while it was on the dinner table. 😂😂😂 ridgeback love from Sri lanka 🇱🇰 🐕🐶
My dog was like that too I had scratch marks all over me and mouthing me it would take like 15 minutes to put leash on because of all the jumping humping … now he is better with all the training …
I was attacked by two Rhodesian ridgebacks when I was in junior high and one of them took a huge chunk out of my leg. I needed stitches and my leg was bruised really bad for close to a month
I'm wondering, do other dogs in the family pick up on the fact that he's deaf? For this family or any other family in similar situation. Is it even possible to tell?
I got a 2 year old dog from a rescue that would jump up all the time. I was telling her no and down etc making her stop the jumping if she wanted pets... then I caught one of my kids tapping her chest yelling up up. Luckily my dog is super smart and learned she could only jump when invited to do so, and didn't just get confused and continue jumping all the time.
Maybe because he had a habit of mouthing? I could see the purpose of using the hands for signing/ signaling only (other than petting of course- but petting doesn't involve food either). Just a thought.
I wish my whole family would agree to do training like this. It doesn't work when only I do it 😔 Victoria has the power of persuading humans
Yes unfortunately no training works if there isnt consistency and repetition! Usually it is the humans hardest to train 🤣
I sooooo agree with you! I'm getting an ulcer being the only one that's consistent with the training and the rest of my family seems to do exactly the opposite. 😤🙄
Yes! And then they complain because the dog is unruly. It's their own fault!
@@luisap.343 As a trainer myself, I actually get hired quite often from one family member that basically just needs me to come in and be that "bad guy" because they say "they will listen if it comes from you and not just me!" In those cases, very little work is actually done with the dog and most is lecturing and giving "the talk" and guidelines, that way the other family members feel confident they have merit to hold them accountable 😂
Keeping your stress low, confidence and support surrounding you high is sometimes more the reasoning for hiring someone!
It also helps for you to write down and specify those concerns and stressor on paper, sometimes sit down as a household too. Ultimately not just setting your doggy up for success by having everyone equally engaged, but keeping all the humans more balanced and happy too.
Don't let it fester and continue to build up inside because ultimately only you and your dog will suffer. Do what you need to do to address it and regardless of how hard it is, it is always a weight lifted afterwards 🥰
Same here, training curve was so frustrating when nobody from family followed the rules, just ugh, how can one expect the dog to understand the rules, if they're being broken all the time?
It’s amazing how a slight interruption to one of primary senses can change developmental milestones so significantly.
A bit like kids needing to see lips move when learning to speak.
“It’s amazing how a slight interruption to one of the primary senses can change developmental milestones so significantly.” 20:09
I think this is one of the most remarkable episodes and training techniques I have ever seen Victoria present. Such a marvelous trainer 👏🏼
2:05 I love how that dog stands on the table, then kinda looks around as though he's wondering what he's suppose to be doing up there.
I love how proud they are of him as he figures out how to communicate with his family ❤
What a lovely couple! They also genuinely care about their dog unlike so many who turn up with totally untrained and wildly out of control dogs
Victoria's training techniques are so common sense but in your frustration, you don't think about them. A Chihuahua puppy compared to a Rhodesian Ridgeback cannot be trained the same for obvious reasons. This dog's intelligence is really showing, you're truly amazing Victoria!
do you think brain size has something to do with it? genuine question not sarcasm
@@yumyummarblesid say no, the biggest part plays in what they were doing in the past like catching rodents, royalties pet etc
Lots of things were common sense to Einstein as well, and like Einstein Victoria is able to present certain things in ways that we can understand :)
That's one smart dog! And he's got wonderful owners, they love him so much. They are so willing to put in the hard work with him and he is a beautiful dog.

Yeah. I think it's worse when they are puppies because the baby teeth are extra sharp.

YES! So, think ahead!
They likely didn’t have the problem with their other dogs, and made an oversight here
@@lindaorlandi1127100. Those baby teeth are like overused but still sharp razors.

Amazing episode. Victoria understands dogs better than anyone! I would never have thought of him chasing their hands as a game!

Well, they know how to care for a dog, they just don't know how to deal with the fact that this dog is deaf, it makes a big difference.
the dog isn't even deaf 😭 she's literally teaching him tricks with words
@@akrrasiiaa je is deaf. When you have one hearing pet and one deaf, you use both words and hand signals, so they know both.

Great video and great owners with lots of patience ❤ one question is , why do they give treats to him dropped on the floor?
Maybe because he had a habit of mouthing? I could see the purpose of using the hands for signing/ signaling only (other than petting of course- but petting doesn't involve food either). Just a thought.
Victoria, you are AMAZING❤❤❤❤
So simple, one of the breeds I'm looking at
Depending on your living situation I recommend one strongly I have two but I also live on land and they run upwards of 5 miles a day
why do all of these owners have such beautiful homes
