Amazing attitudes. Ronin is very confident and non confrontational. Great reaction of the pack seeing one of them getting buillied. That pit mix gives me dictator-like vibes: very charismatic, poised, but has a menacing hand of steel.
I love your videos. Ronin is an awesome dog. He tolerates just enough but takes care of business when business needs to be taken care of. Go Ronin go!!!
I have really started looking at my dog and other dogs behaviour differently since i started watching your videos. You breaking it down really helps me take my alpha status to the next level. I can better anticipate my dog and other dogs thanks to you. Appreciate your videos!
dog fights can be scary but a confident dog isn't going to let another dog bully them no matter where they go; dogs are social beings and learn through being corrected especially by other dogs.

Happy to hear everything turned out okay and everyone was all right. Good on you for getting him neutered, and for waiting. Just a couple of FYIs. Mine got neutered later in his life too, right before I adopted him. Some intact dogs react weirdly to him for that reason. Second, if you see another stare down like that, step in to diffuse it. A loud and sharp "Hey!" and/or a hand clap almost always is enough, and you have to catch it at the beginning, before the dog locks eyeballs and has time to escalate. This fight was avoidable, but we're all forever in the process of learning.
I actually wouldn't suggest the hand clap method. Seen this used many times and it actually causing the dogs to lunge rather than become distracted. Words work best as our pets do to a degree understand them and will often times react to it when well trained.
@@kimokatthekitten5951 "Train the dog in front of you." You have to do something at a higher level to break their intense focus, without triggering them into action.

The amount of people bitching about you neutering Ronin is a little terrifying tbh. Why are y'all so obsessed over this dog getting fixed? Most large breed dogs get fixed around age 2 because they're fully grown and have all the muscular structure they need by then. Good god.
People buy puppies then change their mind, dogs born under good intentions often end up stray or in abusive living situations. Visit a shelter yall forreal, and get your pets spayed and neutered like I got my cat 😇
@@stuckie3916 Who said that was the reason the owner neutered Ronin? He trained and controlled his behavior for the two years needed for him to become fully grown. Clearly that wasn't the issue here. Accidental litters was the issue.
@@stuckie3916 Ronin's recall and behavior got better after he got neutered. Hormones do crazy things to your body. Keeping an intact dog is like keeping a ticking time bomb. The moment it sees a female in heat, it will forget all of the training you've been through for that one female. It's nature, you can't really stop it with some recalls and words.
@@stuckie3916 It's better for the animal overall not having the drive of hormones messing with them. You can see the effects of out of control hormones even in humans! Look no further than the current state of certain individuals and it's kind of clear. Funny enough it's been widely documented that even human males that had their uh- family jewels removed reported a better quality of life and clarity of mind.
That that hes neutered I think they'll stop, I worked at a dog daycare and honestly even during my monthly girl things sone got stressed because of hormones, now that hes loosing all that testosterone I think they will be much better with him and ronin won't be as stud up either
At 8:40 Raven moves in to protect Ronan’s throat. A few seconds earlier she ran up and stopped to observe, she knew a confrontation was coming. The female going underneath the male’s chin is a common move with wolves to ensure the best chance of no harm coming to the group’s protector. She is also in a position to be the best back up for Ronin, which happens.
cant believe youre this educated on dog behavior and still bring them to the dog park. Its a sure fire way to get your dog sick at the minimum. Hurt at the maximum. If youre doing this for making educational content, I give you props. You have a sturdy breed that can take it. but dog parks are really not safe or healthy. Mostly due to other owners, not the dogs. Either way, I learned a lil bit from this vid. so thank you.
Thank you, this is all I needed to make the decision to get my intact dog fixed. I want him to get along and he’s already a stubborn coonhound. I want him to have friends 😂
Back in the Philippines. A lot of dogs tried to bully my dog. Sometimes a pack of dogs and none of them succeeded 😂. Because I trained him how to defend himself since a puppy. And I also don't let other dogs try to dominate him. Once I see another dog looking for a fight. I use Cesar Millan's shush on them and they back off.
I love your channel man. I was at the park with my 14 month intact american bully last week and moment i got there this husky mix started trying to asert dominance over my dog, my boy backed off and disengaged twice but this dog kept on leaning over him and just trying to really say im boss, the husky mix even pissed on my girlfriend! Next thing i know it goes for my dogs neck and all savagery broke out my dog got so mad and overpowered the husky mix and I instantly ran over and grabbed his collar and pulled him out. The husky owner was screaming bloody murder the whole time lol. Best part is the dog was wearing a big red FRIENDLY vest. Im really considering doing a dog behaviour course. Super interesting to me
Always great videos my dude! i have a 2yo mal in Australia myself Just wondering if you have noticed any changes in Ronins since Neutering him? My guy is still intact and tossing up whether to do it or not as well.
I’m definitely not going to fix my dog specially since we don’t go to dog parks although we do go to a fiesta island dog park which is very big and dogs are off leash my Achilles (92+ pound) Belgian gets to run around and has been trained to walk away and avoid from conflict unless attacked. I do believe on fixing dogs that have bad genetics as I did with my female husky but my Mal is pure bread, oversized and well tempered, trained in bite work and obedience and will be used as a breeding dog with a working dog in the near future. People think it’s the unneutered dogs fault when there is conflict but I blame the untrained dog to not follow a command when they escalate the situation by not listening to the owner. I’ve gotten into one or 2 arguments about my dog’s aggression from owners holding their dogs when they see my dog has balls and they hold on to their dogs saying that my dog is aggressive when they don’t pay attention to their dogs but their dogs are over aggressive towards him. If an Alfa wolves can handle being around other unfixed wolves you can teach your domesticated dog Neto listen to you not to attack other dogs by using an E-collar the right way.
Unless you're planning on breeding him, there's no good reason not to have your dog neutered. It makes life less stressful for the dog and reduces the chances of cancer
Ronin is a beautiful dog - thank you for your posts and videos and please ignore the bizarre posts here. Anyone fixating on a dog’s parts over the general health and wellbeing of the dog has serious issues. That isn’t loving an animal - that is projection. You are caring for your doggo in a completely responsible and humane manner by making sure he is stimulated, socialized, not confined to an area and cut off from all people and animals because he loses his mind every time another living thing appears. He is enjoying a life full of interesting things and learning all the time. It’s wonderful, and the happiness on his face is obvious. Some people live in a world in which the brutal reality of overbreeding and shelter life escapes them, and they think their own emotions and fantasies are more important than the litters of puppies being left at shelters all the time…
Comment about dog trying to put his chin on another dog to show dominance (I don't remember which breed is which) was enlightening. I was a relatively new dog owner, watching, puzzled, while a shepherd breed of some sort followed my pit mix all over the dog park, with his chin nearly glued to my dog's back. My dog kept trying to get away, the shepherd wouldn't let him. Finally my dog rolled onto his back in front of the other, and that's when I finally understood what was happening.(Btw, the domineering dog was soon banned from the park.)
That is called teeing up and the owner of the pit mix should have recognized that immediately and intervened. It means a dog fight is about to happen. The owner was likely their phone and didn’t notice. You have to look out for your dogs and other people’s dogs because most people are oblivious. I hate dog parks.
In my opinion (at 0:54 seconds), that's not a relaxed tail wag, that did not mean friendly. Ronin's hair is standing up on his neck and back, and his tail is wagging vertically which means Ronin was displaying dominance towards the Pit mix. You really can't blame the pit for reacting the way it did, if you met another person and they walked up to you and got in your face and puffed out their chest immediately you would probably not react kindly to it. I feel like with you knowing Ronin is an intact dominant male, you should have called him off when you saw him tense up like that. I like your video's, I hope I don't come across as rude I've just noticed in some of the video's Ronin is the one showing dominance and some of the negative interactions are because of that. I also have a Presa mix and it can be hard to not show bias and remember when you're dog is in the wrong and correct them. Even the most well-trained dogs can have moments.
My reason as to why the owner(s) would not step in. If the owners stepped in, it is possible that even themselves could have been hurt. Without the pit mix being corrected, it could've damaged both the owner's dog(s) and the pit mix altogether. You cannot just pull dogs away from a fight. They happen for a reason and are usually settled if they *aren't* bothered. Pit Mix: Gets in the personal space of the BM. BM: In response, he shows uncomfortable behavior. Pit Mix: *continues* getting into the personal space of the BM. BM: Is finally triggered when the Pit tries to set dominance. If someone did that to you as an human, you'd also feel uncomfortable. We may have different body language and thoughts from dogs, but they understand uncomfortability in their own way! Just like how many humans do the same. Of course, there are many cases that are similar to this video. This is a reminder that *if* you see your dog correcting another, do *not* step in unless it is needlessly violent. It is their way of setting boundaries. And to also keep your dog in check so they don't keep bothering the corrected dog. (Unless the dog needs yet another correction.) (I am not a professional, but I do study many animal behaviors and have even adapted some myself. You can form your own opinion, but this is mine. The creator of the video *cannot* go back in time to fix any problems the BM or the Pit has done. Please take that into consideration!)
Se aprende mucha observacion con tus videos! Yo tengo tb un Mali, ya con 12 años, y conozco muy bien su lenguaje corporal pero no el de otras razas. Un saludo!
I recently watched a video at a 'Friesian Horses' stable, where the resident Rottie was nipping at the rear legs of a new horse, like wolves do, to cut the tendons of fleeing prey animals... Then it was pushy, rude, and displaying dominant behavior on a visiting, and leashed, retriever-type dog, who was scared to death... The owner of the Rottie and the horses, and viewers commenting, thought this bad and extremely dangerous behavior was "cute" because it was "excited to make new friends!" How IGNORANT can you be!?!?! Off course, I didn't make any friends that day... LOL
I love watching your videos because they always teach me about dogs and body language. I also have a pitbull with green eyes and light brown hair, it's a boy, and his name is called Canelo which is cool because you have a girl dog called Canela
First! Do you know any tips on how to catch a scared lost dog i found on a walk I found one yesterday and she was really scared of my puppy (he isn’t aggressive just overexcitable) I caught the dog but it ran away before I could put a lead on it it was really skinny but friendly I’m going to look for it again today it had a collar not sure if it had a tag it was dark.
It is the norm, but dogs who are spayed/neutered too early have an increased chance of developing undesirable behavioral issues such as phobias, fear aggression and reactivity. Early spay/neuter triples the risk of developing hypothyroidism and becoming obese. So it is best to wait for at least 15 months after birth
For some dogs it can also inhibit there growth and cause bone deformation such as for German Shepards. They can get underdeveloped hips that can cause them Alot of pain if neutered before fully grown and matured (1 1/2 - 2 years)
I learned something new!!! I just always called it a side eye....which it technically is, but its called the "whale eye" ! And dogs will exhibit this while feeling anxious or stressed....they will turn their head but keep their eyes on whatever they are looking at. Very uncertain. You can tell too. Thank You!!! Ive subscribed.
Brilliant content ive done a youtube channel because small majority of people always judging my German shepherds SAYING THERE DANGEROUS!! Iam going to invest in camera and dog harness! To shut these people up ! Ive subscribed carnt wait to watch more of your content ❤❤❤
You should do Embark ronan's DNA. I feel strongly that he has somewhere between twenty-five to 30% maybe even more German Shepherd. His larger head, Mals, have much more narrow heads and don't have as wide as a muzzle, the markings especially the black mole, he really looks like he has some German Shepherd in him
In my opinion, I think if Ronin really wanted to hurt this dog, he would have. But it seems like a very firm correction. When he had that dog by the neck was like a firm hold to show that dog to quit. And his bad behavior is not tolerated. Ronin is absolutely an amazing dog. But this is just my opinion.
This is perfect! I think it shows that dogs can’t be put into a box. Like perhaps Ronin is dominant MOST of the time, but he can also be submissive in some situations, like with the husky. Dominance and submission are fluid, just depends on the situation 🤷🏽♀️
I enjoy watching your videos. I have a question, after watching this video - Do you record all this for educational purposes only? Like so you can break things down for your viewer? How come when you see all the moments/gestures/signals that are leading up to a fight, you don’t just interject & deflect and avoid the whole altercation between the dogs? Why risk injuries to any of the dogs? I understand when you’re filming from a far & notice all the micro moments that lead to a fight, & you’re too far to do anything in time. But when they’re right in front of you, why watch all the signs of a fight compound?
I agree if you have your Malinois under control None of this would happen. My Malinois were trained by Afgan War Vet Dog handler r. He taught me and my Dogs to Chill when meeting strange dogs at the Park. Plus how to defuse the situation before it happens, which means calling back my Dog. . There's one guy who's always lecturing us about dogs, but it's His dog that's be always in the middle of something. I run 2 Malinois and a Pit Bull, under my verbal commands none of this would happen. 90 percent of the Dogs/owners at the Park have the same control. Only problem is the know it all. We just wander off when he comes. My Malinois are untinterested in the other Dogs to began with. They know that none of the other dogs have their speed and drive. .so they just Go Commando on each other. Had to buy them Goggles they tear through the woods so fast.
My Alaskan malamute I have is very dominant (not in a mean way just very strong if that makes sense) when it comes to other male dogs that are anything above the size of a beagle especially the younger male dogs my husky is 8 and has the size and attitude of wolverine but you can put the meanest little dog in front of him and he will just stand there or try to play 😫 I love watching your videos you know so much about body language and just how your dogs operate it’s awesome to watch thanks for the great videos 🤙
All these people talking about how bad you neutering your dog is are so stupid lmaooo. When a dog has more testosterone going through his body he is more likely to be super dominant which can lead to behavioral issues and aggression. Also imagine it this way, he was obviously never meant to be a breeding dog, imagine you have all this testosterone running through your body and all these hormones but you aren’t able to breed, your just stuck like that. It would be hell, people who don’t neuter there dogs are the real selfish ones who are doing it cause they attach the human trait of “manliness” to a dogs nuts 🤦
His videos should be a must for the dog park people, on looking for the nuances that cause dogs to react in a aggressive way. Canela does a excellent slow motion analysis of minor nuances that 99 per cent of Dog Park people miss. Now males dogs are always in Season where females are twice a year. But to state that a altered dog fixes dog aggression is not correct. It does obviously stop a male dog from breeding and does stop for the most part a male dogs need to wander looking for females. I have had many real working dogs and as long as you satisfy a real working dogs needs then dog on dog aggression is not a issue! But if your version of work is the dog park.................. No good! Do not by a Ferrari and drive it in a Walmart parking lot. I run a KNPV DS female off leash at all times including Dog Parks to proof training and young a non altered highly bred APBT, do I think he can tolerate a Dog Park when he matures............. honestly no idea. Time will tell, if you have any idea of altering your intact male then just get a female much easier to manage a working dog. Or just get a golden dog of some type and go to the dog park and look at your phone and socialize. But Never take a real Dog to a park and not be 100 percent watching every new dog encounter. You are just asking for problems.
I don't attach anything to my dogs nutts - I'm just not a degenerate from the US who think mutilating dogs is the only way to keep them socialized and behaving normally, especially not a degenerate who convinced themselves that removing organs is "good for health". Just shut up, you mutilating dogs is your selfishness because you think that's "easier" to handle, you don't do it for the dog, stop the cap. The "hell" you think they go through is you projecting human sexuality onto dogs, which is a LOT weirder than anyone feeling sorry for their dog's nuts.
My man ronin going through it again, I knew he always being bullied by other dogs, even in the dog world bullying can still happen❤ meanwhile Roxy having fun😂😂

im a professional dog handler, give this a good read if your not confident if you should or should not go to a dog park.
I look after groups of 10-20 dogs in a dog park setting, 1 handler per yard, we are trained to deal with this type of body language when to interject and when not to interject ourselves.
key rules for dog who attend dog parks:
Gate manners - must sit before entering the environment
must wear a drag line unless recall is proofed
MUST be able to receive a dogs correction appropriately
When said dog gives a dog a correction is it balanced?
no pinning, no humping,(we call them off for doin so)
no intensive rough play for over 20 secs (must call out of heated play)
if a dog is leading up giving all off these signals at a dog park, and YOU know the dogs going to kick off, its your duty to call the trained dog off and handle the other one YOURSELF not let the dogs settle it.
however if you know the dogs well such as a daycare environment where we screen and trial dogs, you let the dogs give each other a stare down or a few whale eyes see if they get the hint if not we interject ourselves and settle the situation.
FIGHTS HAPPEN - though rare in a proffesional setting - don't beat around the bush, a scuffle is dogs goign at it but no latching on and call off with out physical contact, a FIGHT is where there is puncture wounds and not letting go untill physically pulled off.
when a fight occurs, grab YOUR dog (the victim) by the back hips and toss it to the side and slip lead the other dog, pull the dog out of the environment as the adrenaline will likely redirect into a 2nd fight.
if you are not the person closest to the fight, DO NOT SHOUT this can cause more fights and excitement levels to rise, instead dump water over the dogs, clap or bang on a fence if outside.
NOT participating in resolving a fight is fired from our facility.
Tools to have handy on the side of a dog park for everyone to have:
Air Horn
Bite sticks
extra SLIP leads
WATER BUCKETS
The look my friend gave when I reached in a dog fight to pull them apart will forever be burned into my head. Great advice!

People buy puppies then change their mind, dogs born under good intentions often end up stray or in abusive living situations. Visit a shelter yall forreal, and get your pets spayed and neutered like I got my cat 😇
Because you shouldn’t cut a dogs balls off because you can’t control his behavior.
@@stuckie3916 Who said that was the reason the owner neutered Ronin? He trained and controlled his behavior for the two years needed for him to become fully grown. Clearly that wasn't the issue here. Accidental litters was the issue.
@@stuckie3916 Ronin's recall and behavior got better after he got neutered. Hormones do crazy things to your body. Keeping an intact dog is like keeping a ticking time bomb. The moment it sees a female in heat, it will forget all of the training you've been through for that one female. It's nature, you can't really stop it with some recalls and words.
@@stuckie3916 It's better for the animal overall not having the drive of hormones messing with them. You can see the effects of out of control hormones even in humans! Look no further than the current state of certain individuals and it's kind of clear. Funny enough it's been widely documented that even human males that had their uh- family jewels removed reported a better quality of life and clarity of mind.
5:25 I GOT SO SCARED WHOLE DAMN JUMPSCARE
Bro, when will the dogs learn to not mess with Ronan?
You spelled ronin wrong btw😂
Oh my bad
That that hes neutered I think they'll stop, I worked at a dog daycare and honestly even during my monthly girl things sone got stressed because of hormones, now that hes loosing all that testosterone I think they will be much better with him and ronin won't be as stud up either
At 8:40 Raven moves in to protect Ronan’s throat. A few seconds earlier she ran up and stopped to observe, she knew a confrontation was coming. The female going underneath the male’s chin is a common move with wolves to ensure the best chance of no harm coming to the group’s protector. She is also in a position to be the best back up for Ronin, which happens.
Think u meant 8:40
@@LKASTI yes, thanks
“ROXIE NOOO😢” the way u said it haha 🤣
Looking at how frequently Ronin gets mounted, I can only deduce that he must be BEAUTIFUL 😅
Ronin is such a good dog name
Yooooo….the little dog. 😂😂😂😂
This is the ONE channel my dog will actually watch on youtube. 😂😂😂
cant believe youre this educated on dog behavior and still bring them to the dog park. Its a sure fire way to get your dog sick at the minimum. Hurt at the maximum. If youre doing this for making educational content, I give you props. You have a sturdy breed that can take it. but dog parks are really not safe or healthy. Mostly due to other owners, not the dogs. Either way, I learned a lil bit from this vid. so thank you.
Thank you, this is all I needed to make the decision to get my intact dog fixed. I want him to get along and he’s already a stubborn coonhound. I want him to have friends 😂
Back in the Philippines. A lot of dogs tried to bully my dog. Sometimes a pack of dogs and none of them succeeded 😂. Because I trained him how to defend himself since a puppy. And I also don't let other dogs try to dominate him. Once I see another dog looking for a fight. I use Cesar Millan's shush on them and they back off.
WOWWWW......learned a lot from this one 🙌🏽 🥇🐾!! TY!
The little dog at the end was going at it💀
The doggie camera makes the guy on the bench look like a crash test dummy😂🤣😆
In the end Ronin is having the time of his life😂
I like Ronin. I have seen many videos with him. I do not agree with the action taken, but again, you are the owner. Thanks.
Tongue flick: I really don't want to fight...
You done a great job with this animal, who by the way is a great animal. Be safe fellas>
I love your channel man. I was at the park with my 14 month intact american bully last week and moment i got there this husky mix started trying to asert dominance over my dog, my boy backed off and disengaged twice but this dog kept on leaning over him and just trying to really say im boss, the husky mix even pissed on my girlfriend! Next thing i know it goes for my dogs neck and all savagery broke out my dog got so mad and overpowered the husky mix and I instantly ran over and grabbed his collar and pulled him out. The husky owner was screaming bloody murder the whole time lol. Best part is the dog was wearing a big red FRIENDLY vest. Im really considering doing a dog behaviour course. Super interesting to me
I love ur vids especially u tell us how they look and what that means
yea just gonna ignore the dog at the back k.o his friend 2:58

Always great videos my dude! i have a 2yo mal in Australia myself
Just wondering if you have noticed any changes in Ronins since Neutering him?
My guy is still intact and tossing up whether to do it or not as well.
I’m definitely not going to fix my dog specially since we don’t go to dog parks although we do go to a fiesta island dog park which is very big and dogs are off leash my Achilles (92+ pound) Belgian gets to run around and has been trained to walk away and avoid from conflict unless attacked. I do believe on fixing dogs that have bad genetics as I did with my female husky but my Mal is pure bread, oversized and well tempered, trained in bite work and obedience and will be used as a breeding dog with a working dog in the near future. People think it’s the unneutered dogs fault when there is conflict but I blame the untrained dog to not follow a command when they escalate the situation by not listening to the owner. I’ve gotten into one or 2 arguments about my dog’s aggression from owners holding their dogs when they see my dog has balls and they hold on to their dogs saying that my dog is aggressive when they don’t pay attention to their dogs but their dogs are over aggressive towards him. If an Alfa wolves can handle being around other unfixed wolves you can teach your domesticated dog Neto listen to you not to attack other dogs by using an E-collar the right way.
dont do it aslong as he is not untrainable agressive imo
Unless you're planning on breeding him, there's no good reason not to have your dog neutered. It makes life less stressful for the dog and reduces the chances of cancer
I feel like I'm in a prison yard when watching these videos
Lol
Ronin is a beautiful dog - thank you for your posts and videos and please ignore the bizarre posts here. Anyone fixating on a dog’s parts over the general health and wellbeing of the dog has serious issues. That isn’t loving an animal - that is projection. You are caring for your doggo in a completely responsible and humane manner by making sure he is stimulated, socialized, not confined to an area and cut off from all people and animals because he loses his mind every time another living thing appears. He is enjoying a life full of interesting things and learning all the time. It’s wonderful, and the happiness on his face is obvious.
Some people live in a world in which the brutal reality of overbreeding and shelter life escapes them, and they think their own emotions and fantasies are more important than the litters of puppies being left at shelters all the time…
Comment about dog trying to put his chin on another dog to show dominance (I don't remember which breed is which) was enlightening. I was a relatively new dog owner, watching, puzzled, while a shepherd breed of some sort followed my pit mix all over the dog park, with his chin nearly glued to my dog's back. My dog kept trying to get away, the shepherd wouldn't let him. Finally my dog rolled onto his back in front of the other, and that's when I finally understood what was happening.(Btw, the domineering dog was soon banned from the park.)
That is called teeing up and the owner of the pit mix should have recognized that immediately and intervened. It means a dog fight is about to happen. The owner was likely their phone and didn’t notice. You have to look out for your dogs and other people’s dogs because most people are oblivious. I hate dog parks.
This was actually a pretty good video I learned alot
In my opinion (at 0:54 seconds), that's not a relaxed tail wag, that did not mean friendly. Ronin's hair is standing up on his neck and back, and his tail is wagging vertically which means Ronin was displaying dominance towards the Pit mix. You really can't blame the pit for reacting the way it did, if you met another person and they walked up to you and got in your face and puffed out their chest immediately you would probably not react kindly to it. I feel like with you knowing Ronin is an intact dominant male, you should have called him off when you saw him tense up like that. I like your video's, I hope I don't come across as rude I've just noticed in some of the video's Ronin is the one showing dominance and some of the negative interactions are because of that. I also have a Presa mix and it can be hard to not show bias and remember when you're dog is in the wrong and correct them. Even the most well-trained dogs can have moments.
Yet the pit is always approaching Ronin. Why cant the pit mind its own damn business? Cause its literally too stupid
Agree. Should call off earlier so the tension don't rise. May just be a rare event though.
@@42cuba.......because its a dog meeting other dogs?? Lol
Amazing videos and love learning about the dog behavior. Well done, thx
My reason as to why the owner(s) would not step in.
If the owners stepped in, it is possible that even themselves could have been hurt. Without the pit mix being corrected, it could've damaged both the owner's dog(s) and the pit mix altogether. You cannot just pull dogs away from a fight. They happen for a reason and are usually settled if they *aren't* bothered.
Pit Mix: Gets in the personal space of the BM.
BM: In response, he shows uncomfortable behavior.
Pit Mix: *continues* getting into the personal space of the BM.
BM: Is finally triggered when the Pit tries to set dominance.
If someone did that to you as an human, you'd also feel uncomfortable. We may have different body language and thoughts from dogs, but they understand uncomfortability in their own way! Just like how many humans do the same.
Of course, there are many cases that are similar to this video. This is a reminder that *if* you see your dog correcting another, do *not* step in unless it is needlessly violent. It is their way of setting boundaries. And to also keep your dog in check so they don't keep bothering the corrected dog. (Unless the dog needs yet another correction.)
(I am not a professional, but I do study many animal behaviors and have even adapted some myself. You can form your own opinion, but this is mine. The creator of the video *cannot* go back in time to fix any problems the BM or the Pit has done. Please take that into consideration!)
But he can learn and not keep putting his dog I to awful situations....
Yo this mounting is actually crazy😂
Battle for the ages, man
Love your Videos! You inspired me to create my own content with my Doberman! I Wish you and Ronin a safe time together at dog parks!.
Ronin be kicking ass Fr 😂
dead at the shih tzu!! now that was a full on DATE! 🤠
this pit mix always looks like it ate my food and doesnt want me to find out
This dog doesn't have a lick of pit
Se aprende mucha observacion con tus videos! Yo tengo tb un Mali, ya con 12 años, y conozco muy bien su lenguaje corporal pero no el de otras razas. Un saludo!
hi, love these videos! where did you learn about dog behaviour like this?
Ronin is such a level headed guy
Really cool to see the way these things play out!
I recently watched a video at a 'Friesian Horses' stable, where the resident Rottie was nipping at the rear legs of a new horse, like wolves do, to cut the tendons of fleeing prey animals...
Then it was pushy, rude, and displaying dominant behavior on a visiting, and leashed, retriever-type dog, who was scared to death...
The owner of the Rottie and the horses, and viewers commenting, thought this bad and extremely dangerous behavior was "cute" because it was "excited to make new friends!" How IGNORANT can you be!?!?! Off course, I didn't make any friends that day... LOL
I love watching your videos because they always teach me about dogs and body language. I also have a pitbull with green eyes and light brown hair, it's a boy, and his name is called Canelo which is cool because you have a girl dog called Canela
First! Do you know any tips on how to catch a scared lost dog i found on a walk I found one yesterday and she was really scared of my puppy (he isn’t aggressive just overexcitable) I caught the dog but it ran away before I could put a lead on it it was really skinny but friendly I’m going to look for it again today it had a collar not sure if it had a tag it was dark.
I would contact your local animal authority
weird you have to defend yourself, i thought spaying/neutering was the norm? i live in the states
It is the norm, but dogs who are spayed/neutered too early have an increased chance of developing undesirable behavioral issues such as phobias, fear aggression and reactivity. Early spay/neuter triples the risk of developing hypothyroidism and becoming obese. So it is best to wait for at least 15 months after birth
For some dogs it can also inhibit there growth and cause bone deformation such as for German Shepards. They can get underdeveloped hips that can cause them Alot of pain if neutered before fully grown and matured (1 1/2 - 2 years)
@@Kate-is5mz don’t know why you’re so upset
@@ciaravitani2011 his dog is 2yrs old, if i remember correctly, so still don’t know why he was getting hated on
No one gonna talk about the side eye and the to dogs body slamming each other in the background at 3:05?
I saw that to lol 😂
Just found your channel and this is amazing and what in my opinion most dog owners dont understand. Read the body language of your dog !
So at the end you just let Ronin get Diddyed by a pipsqueak???
I learned something new!!! I just always called it a side eye....which it technically is, but its called the "whale eye"
! And dogs will exhibit this while feeling anxious or stressed....they will turn their head but keep their eyes on whatever they are looking at. Very uncertain. You can tell too. Thank You!!! Ive subscribed.
Brilliant content ive done a youtube channel because small majority of people always judging my German shepherds SAYING THERE DANGEROUS!! Iam going to invest in camera and dog harness! To shut these people up ! Ive subscribed carnt wait to watch more of your content ❤❤❤

Isnt that a flagging tail, not a wagging tail?
How do you tell them apart?

You should do Embark ronan's DNA. I feel strongly that he has somewhere between twenty-five to 30% maybe even more German Shepherd. His larger head, Mals, have much more narrow heads and don't have as wide as a muzzle, the markings especially the black mole, he really looks like he has some German Shepherd in him
I agree
The little dog lol 😂😂😂😂❤😂😂😂❤❤❤
No need to justify why you decided to neuter Ronin, but your reasons are educational and dog behavior based.
that's too scary for me, I don't like dog parks for that reason. Glad everyone was ok. Nice to see still frames of the tension and aggressive stances.
In my opinion, I think if Ronin really wanted to hurt this dog, he would have. But it seems like a very firm correction. When he had that dog by the neck was like a firm hold to show that dog to quit. And his bad behavior is not tolerated. Ronin is absolutely an amazing dog. But this is just my opinion.
How smart you are when it comes to that☺
Great post, education, ending is super funny.
This is perfect! I think it shows that dogs can’t be put into a box. Like perhaps Ronin is dominant MOST of the time, but he can also be submissive in some situations, like with the husky. Dominance and submission are fluid, just depends on the situation 🤷🏽♀️
3:04 bombastic side eye
I enjoy watching your videos. I have a question, after watching this video - Do you record all this for educational purposes only? Like so you can break things down for your viewer?
How come when you see all the moments/gestures/signals that are leading up to a fight, you don’t just interject & deflect and avoid the whole altercation between the dogs? Why risk injuries to any of the dogs? I understand when you’re filming from a far & notice all the micro moments that lead to a fight, & you’re too far to do anything in time.
But when they’re right in front of you, why watch all the signs of a fight compound?
I agree if you have your Malinois under control None of this would happen. My Malinois were trained by Afgan War Vet Dog handler r. He taught me and my Dogs to Chill when meeting strange dogs at the Park. Plus how to defuse the situation before it happens, which means calling back my Dog. . There's one guy who's always lecturing us about dogs, but it's His dog that's be always in the middle of something. I run 2 Malinois and a Pit Bull, under my verbal commands none of this would happen. 90 percent of the Dogs/owners at the Park have the same control. Only problem is the know it all. We just wander off when he comes. My Malinois are untinterested in the other Dogs to began with. They know that none of the other dogs have their speed and drive. .so they just Go Commando on each other. Had to buy them Goggles they tear through the woods so fast.
6:45 reminds me of
*I DON'T LIKE THIS GAME* xD
My Alaskan malamute I have is very dominant (not in a mean way just very strong if that makes sense) when it comes to other male dogs that are anything above the size of a beagle especially the younger male dogs my husky is 8 and has the size and attitude of wolverine but you can put the meanest little dog in front of him and he will just stand there or try to play 😫 I love watching your videos you know so much about body language and just how your dogs operate it’s awesome to watch thanks for the great videos 🤙
All these people talking about how bad you neutering your dog is are so stupid lmaooo. When a dog has more testosterone going through his body he is more likely to be super dominant which can lead to behavioral issues and aggression. Also imagine it this way, he was obviously never meant to be a breeding dog, imagine you have all this testosterone running through your body and all these hormones but you aren’t able to breed, your just stuck like that. It would be hell, people who don’t neuter there dogs are the real selfish ones who are doing it cause they attach the human trait of “manliness” to a dogs nuts 🤦
Wtf are you on about? How is it selfish to let an animal remain natural? I don’t think it’s bad to neuter them but stop the bs
Also that “manliness” trait is in dogs lmao
Although it’s not even related to why people don’t want to neuter their dogs!
His videos should be a must for the dog park people, on looking for the nuances that cause dogs to react in a aggressive way. Canela does a excellent slow motion analysis of minor nuances that 99 per cent of Dog Park people miss. Now males dogs are always in Season where females are twice a year. But to state that a altered dog fixes dog aggression is not correct. It does obviously stop a male dog from breeding and does stop for the most part a male dogs need to wander looking for females. I have had many real working dogs and as long as you satisfy a real working dogs needs then dog on dog aggression is not a issue! But if your version of work is the dog park.................. No good! Do not by a Ferrari and drive it in a Walmart parking lot. I run a KNPV DS female off leash at all times including Dog Parks to proof training and young a non altered highly bred APBT, do I think he can tolerate a Dog Park when he matures............. honestly no idea. Time will tell, if you have any idea of altering your intact male then just get a female much easier to manage a working dog. Or just get a golden dog of some type and go to the dog park and look at your phone and socialize. But Never take a real Dog to a park and not be 100 percent watching every new dog encounter. You are just asking for problems.
I don't attach anything to my dogs nutts - I'm just not a degenerate from the US who think mutilating dogs is the only way to keep them socialized and behaving normally, especially not a degenerate who convinced themselves that removing organs is "good for health". Just shut up, you mutilating dogs is your selfishness because you think that's "easier" to handle, you don't do it for the dog, stop the cap. The "hell" you think they go through is you projecting human sexuality onto dogs, which is a LOT weirder than anyone feeling sorry for their dog's nuts.
@@Kate-is5mz I diagnose you with fragile masculinity. You worried about your own balls when chopping off the ones of a dog? Sad.
