Thank you for being here!! Leave a comment and let us know what you think about this series, and give us your suggestions for future videos!! 🤩
My 4 month old Rottweiler is a sweetheart, but one thing she is doing is biting my daughter's dog's legs, ears, and his lips. He is a cocker spaniel and he doesn't stand up for himself. She doesn't bite me at all, obdience training she past with flying colors. I train her, I had more than one Rottweiler. I train her everyday. and play also. I just want her to stop biting him. Also the cocker lives with my rottie. They play everyday, but sometimes when Roxy my rottie tries to get him to play by shoving a toy in his face. I do a correction noise and she will.listen. Outside she does the extra biting Cooper.
My GSD 8 months old female has these exact same issues and only seems to be getting worse as she grows older. I’m 5’1 and my kiddo is 7. My dog Savage nearly towers us now, she’s strong! and we need desperate help! I’ve called every training facility in the area and they wait list is months on end long and not to mention $3 grand+
I’ve followed all your videos and have tried all the tips and tricks but her play biting is getting worse as she’s getting bigger and stronger!! She is in no way aggressive but she jumps on us (face level) and only obeys when “she” chooses too. She constantly challenges me (mostly my daughter) which is interesting.. when my daughter isn’t home, she behaves so much better. But she almost “competes” with my daughter as if she’s a dog or someone in competition with. Likely she just wants to play and she has a ton of energy. She knows the basic sit down lay down stay etc. but she is nearly impossible to walk her on a leash as she pulls and jumps on everything. She slips her harness and I’ve tried multiple brands. I’ve had dogs my entire life and she is my by far the most difficult and over stimulated dog I’ve EVER dealt with!
Again, she’s not bad (and I admit it’s likely user error)
She is very similar to this dog on the video though, which gives me some hope that she can change! I’m at a loss as to what to do at this point.
My arms and legs are all scratched and or bitten up from her “puppy bites and scratches”
I cannot get a muzzle on her for the life of me, she pulls them off. I’ve purchased Every single “lead, slip lead harness collar etc. but she won’t close her mouth long enough for me to get them on her. She bites her leashes or chokes herself crazy when I attempt to walk her. I feel like I’ve tried all I know how to do at this point, with the exception of professional help. Which is 1) hell of expensive and 2) apparently no one has the time..
If you or anyone can help me I WILL thank you with my life!!! I love my dog but i may have to find her a new home if this continues on (for the sake of my daughter) 😩 please please help!!

I am just watching/scanning thru these videos & noticed your comment. Am not a professional dog trainer. However, I have know exactly what you are experiencing. Have had dogs dogs my entire life ,began rescuing labs when I was in my teens and a few years ago(10) took on my first GSD rescue. Can first tell you for sure that alot of progress can be made with a GSD much like a Labrador that has "behavior issues" like you are experiencing...and that is lots of engaging activity & exercise. I know that sounds like a simply answer to what is a daily struggle for you. BUT let me say this- It Will be the most amazing relationship you have ever had with a dog if you don't give up and make it thru these difficult times with your GSD. It's also important to mention that this happens frequently with GSD's and it can be very detrimental to a GSD and their ability to develop into a well behaved dog/pet if it gets caught up in a cycle where it goes from one home after the other as most people do not know and are not equipped or have the true desire to give the time to truly own/train a GSD. They tend to build strong bonds with people and being handed over(which happens way more than you can imagine) is a hurdle for the dog to get past. You can only imagine what eventually becomes of GSD's that find themselves in these types of cycles. I don't know an answer to this. A better job could be done by the breeders to better vet whether or not potential new owners are capable and are completely aware of what is going to be required of them. Don't want to judge or persuade/prevent anyone from owning a GSD from being able to do so. Know that almost all people have great intentions and are often experienced dog owners. But almost more often than not you see the same cycle where people get a GSD and it is not something that they are prepared for and either tie it up to a tree and throw it a bowl of food once or twice a day or they recognize that its somethimng that they can't handle or don't have the time or desire to deal with and give it away to someone else who does not know or is not capable of owning/training the dog...and the cycle continues. forgive what may seem like a rant, but see it all the time and it is the dog that ultimately pays the price. GSD's are the most intelligent dogs and have the desire
/capability to be the best dog a family or an individual owner could ever had. Hate to see this happen so, please do not give up on the dog. I PROMISE YOU it will be the best dog and the most satisfying dog owning experience that you could ever imagine. Please update on what your current situation is with your GSD and if there is anything at all I could do to help you please do not hesitate to reply. Am in the process of trying to put together a rescue/help network in my region to help people with GSD's who are in situations like yours and/or help facilitate the re-homing of GSD's who have been given up due to behavior issues by tarining potential new owners to better increase the success.
Please tell me what to do if my 6 month old pup still viciously attacks me, when she gets her zoomies. It's so aggressive, I have to suppress the urge to kick her (which I of course have never done), when she jumps at my legs, trying to bite them.
@@notlisztening9821 Same problem here. Personally I think they are being remotely mind control programmed to act out more. It's so aggressive. I've put a prong collar on mine as it's the only way I am able to stay safe, and he even challenges the prong! I'm going to try some odd noises next I think. Someone suggested downloading an air horn app. I've also seen dog repellent noise makers for sale in PetSmart.
Zak talking about being frustrated makes me feel 10x better trying to teach my dog to stop jumping and biting
Same
It's easy to address. 1st don't listen to him.
2nd. Every time you dog starts to jump you pop the leash. It's soon stop. Don't mess around ramming food in its face.
@@1cbrracer your unsolicited advice is not helpful.
@@tweetspie06 Good for you for not listening to Bruce Peterson! He is obviously not a professional trainer. If you want a program that may help you with your dog, let me know and I will post links to 2 programs by professionals who know what they are doing. One is free and the other is an online course that does cost. Hang in there! Your dog can learn a new behavior. Good luck with your training!
@@Karen-to8jr we're starting Zak's 30 day pupford academy today, so hopefully we'll have a different pup in 30 days!
The biggest lesson I am getting from Zak's videos is to BE PATIENT, which is so hard, especially for me! I want my Moira 2.0 to stop barking at other dogs NOW! You often can't see the progress when you are in the middle of it, but even 2 seconds of more focus on you is progress. Celebrate the small successes and don't focus on perfection.
I agree and I think Zak is doing fantastic with Moira. I love seeing the change in each video with how much she's progressed.
I've had my rescue for a little over a year he is 2.5yrs now and I live on a corner lot. I don't know that the neighbours see the improvement on the barking it is slow but happening.
TMS, I promise, if you _really_ try, patience will come more naturally with age. But again, you've gotta wait to get there.😂😂
Dear Fellow Dog Lovers,
Whenever I'm with my friend with his dogs, he kept Asking;
How could One be able to eliminate bad behavior on dogs❓
Be it jumping, peeing inappropriately, aggression, pulling on the leash…or whatever…No matter what your dog’s problem behavior is…
But there's ONE SOLUTION that i discovered to help to create
the obedient well-behaved pet of your dreams!
So I researched & finally i discovered Adrienne Farricelli ,
a Professional CPDT-KA certified dog trainer,
on how to Develop Dog's Hidden Intelligence by using her Brain Training program for Dogs.
But Wow! My friend is now happy after using Adrienne's
Dog Training Program here: bit.ly/3yWfJWy And definitely helped to remove just about Any troublesome dog behavior!
On my further research again,
i discovered that Adrienne's dog training program
is Amazing Indeed, & highly favoured by so many dog lovers!🐕
To conclude; Thanks for welcoming me in this group/blog,
I really love thiis exciting Blog about Awesome dog News,
*Keep Up the good Work❗

Sadly, I believe that is probably a huge reason a lot of dogs end up either in the shelter or just really misbehaved. Training a dog is work, and it is constant. I can't even imagine having human children. Haha!!
Honestly finally seeing a video with an actual untrained dog which alot of are dealing with right now is so refreshing. I mean if zach a dog trainer is getting frustrated and struggling slightly to train this dog, imagine how us normal non dog trainers feel hahaha.
I am currently in the exact same situation with my dog, thankfully he is half the size of the german shephard but that doesnt make it any easier when he is in public. Watching and learning all i can too help myself help my dog. Just like this girl, it is not her fault she hasnt learned before now, and its not my dogs fault either. It always comes down to the owners. So im glad i can watch these real videos to learn how to be a better dog mum to my dog.
Zac is a fraud.
Moira is such a good girl, she deserves a family that would love her forever.
She's already in her forever home 😭❤ she's adopted
She has already been adopted 😭
@@dazzlingblack6136 oh that’s great! 😭
She’s on Instagram! @moirarosethegsd
Then adopt her😂😂😂
Please consider doing a "Day in my life" video with Inertia, Indiana and which ever dog you are training at that time. We'd love to watch it.. Loving this series so much. You are doing so good and you are the best trainer ever❤ 30 day perfect pup is also helping me a lot in training my fur baby.. I can't thank you enough 😭
Yes same!! That would be such a good video!
Yeah, almost like there schedule and training routine!
@@Jaydenatkinson01 Yess!
I have looked HIGH & LOW for a video to display the behaviors of my 7 month of Aussie with no luck. This video displays the exact behaviors of my dog. THANK YOU SO MUCH! One of the most realistic dog video training videos I’ve ever seen.
Thank you for this awesome comment 🥳
Ughh same! My Aussie is 6 months, and is very unreliable meeting new people! Would love to interact with you about our pups, if your doggy has an IG mine is Dante_underway if you want to chat!
I just adopted a one year old aussiedoodle nd he does the same but when he plays he gets too excited nd jumps nd bites at the toy nd gets my hand pretty hard we are making some progress but it’s so hard to stay patient when he chomps on my hand
Hey guys same here my 9 months old Shepherd/Husky is trained by me, and is great with discipline and commands. But whenever I talk to people, he starts jumping up & mouthing on me, and it looks like I don't train him at all.
@@stylesybs2541 Ugh, same. My 6 month old golden retriever is great with commands, and very smart. But she jumps and mouths people soon as she sees them and it's embarrassing for me.
I had gotten my dog last year during the pandemic and he was soo hard to train but I came across your channel and he literally is like the most amazing dog ever.I literally can’t thank you enough!!Also I love the new series.💕
Same, Zak is a life saver!!
Can't believe my eyes, Moira's getting trained it's going to be the best happy ending⚡
I know right, its so heartwarming! 🥰
🤗💕
entire reason for the improvement of moira is becoz of your calm and collected mindset and having the patience of training such a hyper dog is mind blowing to watch ..........you r an amazing trainer ✨✨
at 6:30 Moira is learning that with "Okay" she can go and get the toy... So I completely understand her when she was struggling at 8:30 when she wasn't allowed to get the toy with "Okay". Just the "Come" command would have been less confusing I think.
otherwise she' s doing great :)
I mean I know that all of us really appreciate Zak working through some really tricky stuff with such patience.. but did anyone see how effectively Zak got Moira to shift her biting towards licking?!? I saw it unfold slowly in front my eyes but it still feels like a magic trick haha. Zak is a genius dog trainer through and through.
I hope there’s more on this biting! I can’t believe the progress on the jumping in just a week! Way to go Moira!
Moira is soooo beautiful!! So happy that Zak is showing that large dogs don't need to be feared. They just need proper training.
You are such a nice person. Hard to find genuine good hearted people
Yes!!!
Moira is going to be such a good dog when she gets adopted!
She's already adopted 😭❤
"And this is what you do: Over and over and over." Dang nab it, Zak! Why do you have to be so realistic about this stuff?
The let go command was something I learned exclusively from your channel, and my dog is SO GOOD with let go now. It has helped her fetch a bunch, but I also use it when I want her to drop something she shouldn't be chewing on. She will excitedly drop it and anticipate what exciting thing I will give her (either throwing a toy or praising her with pets)
This dog has really grown on me over the course of this series. I never imagined I would be saying that and this is coming from someone who typically loves dogs with high drive. Absolutely amazing results especially considering the time frame.
zak's patience....wow! just wow! that's a reality dog training! so amazing... I wish there is another Zak George here in the Philippines..
This is a great reminder training NEVER stops. Past few years been letting things slip so will revisit all your videos and have some fun relearning for both me my grown up girl 💖
Thank you so much Zac, you are an amazing trainer, I love the way how you bear with them patiently and teach them by going a step backward helping them out to accomplish the task, feeling really compassionate for all the work you do and also learned how nice we are ought to be with them whatever the case be. And this I learned from you zac, thank you for all your amazing videos, it has helped me train my dog alot and at the same time understand my dog's likes and dislikes, so that not only my dog listens to me but also I engage myself in his likings too❤❤❤
I am so grateful for learning from Zak how to communicate effectively with my dog. The positive behaviour reinforcement empowers me to ignore any unacceptable behaviour and encourage through reward her great listening skills and lovely behaviour. Thank you Zak, Bree, Inertia and Indy.
Zak, you're the best trainer i've ever seen, knowing their behaviours with the patience you have for them makes it so useful for them to understand! this video just suits me to teach my overactive husky! 💙💙thank you so much
Amazing progress Moira and the George family. Moria's future is very bright all due to the time, patience, and effort from the George family. Thank you all for helping this beautiful girl become her best self.
This beautiful dog is blessed to get help from Zak. I was rescuing young dogs hours from being put down because no one wanted to bother with them. Dogs are a gift.
I have been looking for THIS lesson for weeks!
Thank you for having it!
This series is consistently fantastic. Thank you for your hard work! Moira is brilliant!
i watched ur videos when i was a bit younger and i came back to them recently and to see the improvement in this mans life is crazy from the swaggy shoes to this big house and all of this rlly cool editing and new style is crazy the way he grew as a person amazes me i am only 15 rn but i’ve always wanted to train dogs of my own and have a ceaser milan type of thing just down scaled like live on a bit of land and have my dream dogs and rn i am dog sitting and i volunteer to walk dogs at my animal shelter
This is exactly the motivation I need. I rescued a 2yr old pitbull mix and she does exactly this! She can be intimidating to people that don’t know that she’s just playing. She’s such a sweetheart and I can’t wait to try these tips with her!
If she knows the word "ok" means she is released and can go after the thing you threw based on sessions prior, perhaps try asking for a "sit" a "stay" and then say "come", not "ok". She knows what "come" means but she also seems to know "ok" is a release. Just a thought. This series is helping me a ton with my pup
I’m amazed at this! Moira loves you and trusts you. What a gift you have. I hope you find a great home that will put in as much work with her as you do. She deserves it!! 🥰🥰
Lots of progress is going on and you are doing great as a trainer 👍
I used to cry and get mad when my dog would bite and jump on me. I would literally have a melt down and say I couldn’t do it anymore. She hasn’t done it 3 months. I don’t know what worked (probably me not giving her any attention when she does this) but I’m watching this video to see what helps.
Zak you are a 🌟 thank you for being you and being a best friend to these beautiful animals x
I have to admit, i never skip the intro. You totally nail it with the music and videos frames.
Wow.. I learn something new with every video. ....this channel and ALL it's content it's AMAZING....thank you soooooo much.
My puppy just learn to wave yesterday. And he knows all the basics tricks already. And he is only 5 months old.
We could not have done it without the help your help.......thank you.......
This was excellent. I have 2 ( very large sized ) problem jumpers and it's such a challenge whenever someone comes to the house. After watching this I'm hopeful that maybe you'll have or make a video that might help me deal with my particular situation. Thank you soooooooooooo much for taking the time to make these informative and encouraging videos! You give me hope!
She is doing so good!
We have a four month old German Shepherd puppy named Freya and all of these behaviors like jumping and a high play/prey drive is something she also has in common and all of your tips have helped us with this! Thank you Zak!
In spite of all tough, impatient movement's happens when I trian my dog, I fell happy and my heart smiles when I see zak training dogs,
Some days i get tears while training dog.☹
so excited for the new episode!!
Reality Dog Training is such an excellent series. Zak at his best!
I really appreciate the nail trimming lesson. Just yesterday I was wishing you'd do another video segment on that!
Zak is so dedicated!!
I just loved it!!! So practical and logical! Thank you!
Aww I absolutely love the painting of baby inertia!
this is so helpful!! ive had my giant anatolian/german shepherd mix for about a year now, and he never learned to stop play biting and jumping!! its left me with so many scratches and bites from all of the leftover puppy biting. my parents never cared to train him, so here i am scouring the internet for a source to train him myself. all of the information youve provided about puppy biting is really helping me better understand why he always bites me!! thank you so much for making this video :)
This is so helpful. I haven't seen a dog training video with a doggy like mine. It gives me hope
Love love love -- this has become a much watch for my students. It reinforces them that what I am telling them is not just made up but good scientific training techniques.
I’m so happy I found your channel as we have a puppy GS and this is exactly her! Can’t wait to work on this with her 😊
I'm so glad I found your channel. I'm a homebody and have a 10 month old German shepherd, lab, Rottweiler mix. Got him when he was 10 weeks old and I regret not taking him for walks and meeting people. I'm hoping it's possible to do so now
Loved this series. Have a dog Lola, identical to Moira and the same age. Learnt so much from this. The techniques used are the same as the puppy school I took her to, but this series made the techniques so much more hands-on.
Love how to take the play bite. My dog does this still but hes getting better. Yet again LOVED the session. Thank you Zak and Bree 😍❤
The reason she is struggling to come to you when passing a toy, is because you are giving her the release command first "okay." You're saying "okay, come" The release command tells her that she is free to do whatever she wants, she is out of command. Just give her the "come" command by itself, it will help to make things more clear for her.
I'm continously reading my new dog so when I get a feeling he's going to come towards me I say come here Bently! I love these videos Zak! We're really making progress with our new dog!
This series has been absolutely amazing. Zac sir, you are not just a great dog trainer but a great human trainer too. Tomorrow morning I am going to meet an 11 month old rescue German shepherd Rottweiler cross Bella and seeing you work with Moira was a revelation. I no longer am bad anxious about it. This is how you train a dog. Moira's a perfect student and she was a brilliant choice for this series. Thank you. I may be blogging about it and using your techniques. I will let you know if I do.
Thank you SO MUCH for this video. I have worked with my trainer and my vet to get rid of my 1.5-year-old rescue German Shepard's play-biting and jumping habits. So happy to find this video!!! and good luck Moira, you're the sweetest girl!
This dog has been giving him hell and I find it too funny 🤣🤣🤣🤣
THANK YOU SO MUCH ZAK, the puppy biting and treats on licks was SO helpful!
I really like this series. It really provides a realistic insight into how to train a dog especially for newbie owners like me. So informative and educational, words cannot express how grateful I am for this series. I really hope to be a better owner to my dog after all my learnings.
Love these series with Moira and hope she finds a loving family. Cannot wait to see when she learns to get off distractions from the distance as I know Lily has issues more close by we are than when practicing at a further distance.
Are you going to be continuing this kind of series?? I absolutely love it . 🙂
Thank you so much! We just adopted an adult rescue who jumps on people and gets mouthy when he gets excited. So we are working on those two behaviors. This video hits the nail on the head!
Thumbs up for Deb!!! 🤗 (and Moira,Zak,Bree,Indy,and of course,Miss Inertia too!) 💕 I am thoroughly enjoying this series!
I love the: I will train this dog in the intro, love your vids!!
Thank you Zak! I enjoy your videos and have taken a lot of your tips into training my golden retriever pup (now 4.5 mos old). He's as high energy & loves tug/fetch just like Moira so this was a great reference- also likes to jump & play bite. He's making a lot of improvement over the few months :)
Love your family is helping it is so awesome. And thanks for the training. Need it. Thanks.
Fantastic video!!! Its always great pleasure to watch you train dogs !!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. Moira is very clever pup. Cant wait to your next episode with her. Greetings from Canada 😘😘😘
Thank you again for your help! You’re the best trainer!
Thank you so much for doing what you do
Love these videos so much, they are so helpful! Especially this series with Moira
OMG just from the beginning of this video this is EXACTLY my dog!!! Jumps, snaps, bites when he gets overly excited. I'm gonna be watching all of these!
I love this series a little tooo much!!! Moira is such a smart doggy and you bring out the best in her❤ Love your training methods
So cute! I ❤ shepherds!
I'm trying my Aussie shepherd and he's so crazy right now but listens very well (pre-teen) 😅
Dog is gorgeous! Puppy is so cute, acts just like my miniature poodle, loving, playful and attentive! Great training and smart tips!
This video has helped me so much 🙌🏾 I’m glad I found it and now I can do this for my German Shepard
YESSSSSS! I been waiting for this video! I just got both Zak Georges books and i'm so excited to read them as soon as they get here
Same!!
I am training 3 month old labrador puppy by your videos and I am having good results , Thank you 💖💖
Amazing trainer
I've been watching the series with Moira and I love seeing the massive change with her and how patient you are with Moira. She's such a smart and beautiful dog and will no doubt find the perfect family who will love on her.
I just wanted to say I LOVE your intro!!
This is just the series I needed for my chompy guy, thanks!
ordered some of the treats:-) thank you for showing them. Love your videos.
She’s a good smart dog. Good job
you're an amazing person
This is so helpful!
Me and my husband just adopted a 10 months old shepherd/husky mix and OMG THE BITING and jumping from excitement is awfuuuullll. We have decided that we’ll do everything we can to train her because she’s our baby ❤️
Did you find a solution?
This is great information. WHat a lovely pupper. I need to work on the play biting with my doggo who is 2 years old, and this is very very helpful. Moira is such a sweetie. If I had a bigger place I'd gladly take her in.
I can’t wait to see how you start integrating other dogs into the mix.
Such a smart girl!
My 1 yo mutt is showing all these behaviors that Moira was showcasing. I'm so happy I found this video, I want to train my dog so badly but I had no idea what to do!! Thank you Zak!
Moira treated that Dremel like a toy. Also noticed you said "okay" to release her from the stay and she (I think) thought the "okay" meant it was alright to check out the toy. A great way to show that a change in circumstances pushes the training backwards until the dog makes the connection.
I also noticed the "okay" as a release word. And then "okay come" as a recall, might have worked better with a "Moira come" but I don't know 😊
Love the videos btw 🙂
Yes--George, PLEASE keep using "okay" as a "release word"--it helps her be able to focus and do what you ask, so much!!
This series came just in time, we are getting our labrador in a few months, and this series will help with training alot
I literally felt like I was the only one dealing with this issue, it’s truly difficult and it does takes a lot of patience.
You should have done your homework, before getting a dog, period!
@@Brian_Leca I already did my research before getting a dog, I’m saying it takes a lot of time, effort and patience to train a dog, obviously! Unlike other people who don’t train their dogs and their dogs are not behaved because of their stupid/lazy owner. One year later now my dog is fully trained, knows 40+ commands/tricks, crate trained and everything.
@@Brian_Leca Oh and also heard of puppy blues? Even if people did their research and prepared before getting a dog (especially a puppy) it is very difficult mentally and physically for the owner! That’s why so many people give away their dogs/puppies because of puppy blues even if they did their “homework”! I hear this from people who have over 15 years of experience with dogs and people who never owned a dog in their lives - some of them experience puppy/dog blues!
Moria’s behaviour makes me want to adopt her. She is so cute!
Moira is a beautiful German Shepherd omg! I am so impressed with your training Zak! Im so happy that you have this channel.
This is super awesome educational content. Am going to g to practise sitting down on the floor myself when my puppy gets biting and jumping and convert the episode into training session getting him in food mode progressing to fetch and tug.
my dog romeo, A lab and plott hound mix, is EXACTLY like this. It's incredible. Same mannerisms and everything. He is such a good boy and is eager to learn, and this will help me help him!
Thanks again for this gem of a series. I just came back to this episode with my 5 month old puppy who has been loosing her teeth and loves to bite my gloves. Apparently stuffing + leather makes a great chew toy - who knew? 😅 Just noticed you said golden opportunity with the golden retriever outside. I love the subtle puns you work in. The way you work them in seamlessly while managing a rescue and making your own show is awesome.
