lol they're dogs... it is simple instincts to smell one another, that being said most small dogs aren't socialized enough with large dogs and tend to be reactive. That's why I only go to dog parks that have split pens (small, large, and combination). If your small dog goes in the combination pen they damn well better be friendly with all dogs no matter the size. Other than the occasional dominant large /medium size dog that tries to hump and gets kicked out pretty fast, the only issues I see are small dogs lashing out when another larger dog smells it or tries to play in the remote vicinity. And I get it, it must be intimidating for them, but if you're going into a combined pen like this guy your dog should be friendly to all dogs no matter the size or energy level or it shouldn't be there at all
Watching canine behavior is fascinating! Years ago before I pursued my career as an animal cop I spent a long time learning and observing their behaviors. One thing that helped me was knowing as good as I got reading their body language they were experts at reading ours! And I’m proud of the fact I was the only officer in three agencies who never got bit!
@@willl7780 oh yeah my next service dog I already have picked out of breeder and it's going to be a shepherd. I love my current staffy girl. She's amazing and national figure for service animals, but my dream dog is a shepherd 💕

Your dogs are running roughshod three to one on all the other dogs, and jumping on a human. Impressive (how you haven't been asked to leave and not return).
and the no leashes and having the dogs approach the small reactive dog. no matter how well trained, rules are there for a reason. Either way, their dogs still didn’t have enough impulse control and it could’ve ended differently, especially if it was a large reactive dog.
Since dogs are very close relatives to wolves they tend to act like it sometimes which justifies why they stay in a pack and when someone in the packs is in a fight the others will always help it’s just instinct and pack mentality he didn’t teach that that ofc
Yes and it’s very scary for a little dog to have such a big dog stand over it…big dog owner then blames little dog …I’m not liking these encounters.. I have a very well trained and behaved Chihuahua that walks off leash everyday and never gets into problems unless big dogs show aggression and get in her face … I would pick her up every time I see a big dog approaching as I don’t trust them with a little one.I know a lot of people don’t like Chihuahuas but it’s not about the dog it’s the owners try to remember that 😌
I would control ronin jumping straight over the fence at someone or another dog. Friendly or not, if I were the other dog and that happened to me without warning I would have went into defense out of instinct
You should always have your dog(s) on a leash when entering a dog park or anywhere where there could be triggers for your dog just with personal experience it is better to have a easier way to grab ahold of them. It also seams like ronian does not know a lot about personal space trust me i have a dog that does the samething where he goes straight up to the other dogs to sniff them which if they have met before is some what exceptable but not usally ideal because you do not know what will happened. Also Please do not let your dog jump the fence you are basically just letting your dog run around on his own and if he sees something that he wants he will go for it it will help also with meeting new dogs.
This owner is too full of himself and his dog to pay attention to your warning. Arrogance is his problem which is why he thinks this video is somehow proving what a great trainer and dog owner he is. His dog is a bully and yet he thinks that's acceptable behavior. He's an idiot.
But that’s how dogs meet each other, by sniffing. It’s like shaking hands for people. Why take your dog to a dog park if not to meet other dogs and desensitize. That makes no sense…
Ronin jumps over the fence gets me every time. 😂 It’s like a bunny hop. Though I hope you break him of that habit. Not safe to do that especially if someone is trying to introduce a new dog to a park environment using vthe fence as a blockade.
Thanks for the reminder not to go to dog parks. While you may find your dogs behavior interesting I'd bet alot of unwilling participants in your experiment do not.
100% same. It's one thing to control a dog off a leash in an open environment. It's a whole other ball game to control 3+ dogs off a leash in an open environment. This video is nothing but bravado. If you're heading in to the dog park with more than one dog, keep them leashed. If you don't, you're the problem.
Off leash parks are suppose to be fun for the dogs. It looks like your dog is the only dog having fun asserting his aggressive behavior towards all of the other dogs. This is NOT fun for the other dogs. Not cool at all…
Yeah, greyhounds are really hard to socialize. Only trained a few that liked dog parks. Good dogs tho. These dogs are the arch enemy & reason you can't go to dog parks. Sorry! Mine could help yours.
These videos seem to promote triggering other dogs in the hope of getting a fight in a dog park purely for TH-cam monetization. For this reason I don't take my own Belgian shepherd to dog parks.

Man I love watching your videos, so educational! My brother has a Belgian Malinois / Labrador mix (that I take care of twice a week) so I snap up as much info as I can to help understand her behaviour.
The German Shepherd was the most well-behaved dog there. Dog was doing what Ronin's owner should have been doing. Title should be, "German Shepherd Corrects Unruly Belgian Malinois At The Dog Park."
Btw LOVE the LMAO at the end! 😅 And I love it when my unleashed calm dog stays right at my side, despite the typical chaos around her-she looks at the barking, yappy, circling, jumping, leashed canine losing their mind 20 feet away, and I swear she’s shaking her head with pity 🫢😂!
There was a male malinois at a dog park I used to take my male and female GSD's to that was always asserting its dominance. He even showed aggression with my young female who was still a pup. Well any way, he tried it with my Czech working line male and got curb stomped. Everyone in the park was glad he got put in his place too.
Look, letting your animals sort it out on their own is fine in a private setting, but you are allowing your dog to be too overwhelming in a public space with other dogs that are not "family." This is the exact reason the German keeps trying to intervene. With you having so many dogs, you should not be distracted, especially since you know that your Milionis can be a bit much for other dogs.
I like your account and how it points out body language but I do want to point out that 1. At 3:35, sure Ronin was trying to play, but when he runs up on unfamiliar dogs like that and neither owner is close enough to correct the situation, the other dog is probably gonna feel the need to correct him (unless trained otherwise)-which is what I think that dog did. It seems you might’ve mistook that for “play”, but Roxy looks like she’s correcting Ronin and he kept pushing her to the point where she felt like she had to defend herself. She didn’t just become uncomfortable with the intensity, I don’t think she wanted to play to begin with. 2. Your dogs (Ronin, at least) kinda bully the other dogs and tend to not be very respectful when it comes to boundaries/personal space. Not sure if it’s intentional, but I do see a lot of dogs getting scared/feeling the need to correct them. 3. Whether you’re a handler or a dog, it still sucks to be ran up on by unfamiliar dogs (and can be Very unsafe for everyone involved). I saw one person trying to correct your dog for jumping on her. Not everyone who walks by the park with dogs is planning on actually interacting with other dogs, I know people who train their dogs outside of dog parks and their dogs would not do well being ran up on by large, unfamiliar and unleashed dogs. I also know a few people who might try to defend themself and their dogs by using something like spray or large sticks to prevent fights. A lot of people are not willing to risk traumatizing their trained/in training dogs. Please consider this.
I love you way you taught your dogs to ignore heckling dog! I've been trying to teach mine the same but she's pretty nervous and reactive around other dogs.
I'll add that I do think very highly of my GSD, but I know his flaws. One of which is that, even if I did socialize him as much as humanly possible and a puppy, COVID did hinder that progress and now today I'm cautious. He's great and usually not the instigator, but I know. His signs and protective nature and I'm very cautious and watch him like a hawk in public places. I'm not saying these dogs aren't well trained or even completely safe (which I personally would never label)! But seems like he thinks too highly of his dog. And it's hard not to do, just like children, you see nothing but greatness and potential out of them. I really loved the video and his perspective of the outing at the dog park. It was a great watch and I really hope I'm not biased because of my love for GSD (which I don't think I am in this situation). But I think the Sheperd was naturally following his instincts and doing what was right in that situation. Long message, I've never watched any other videos of this person but I must say that it was a really great watch and my only point is that the headline (to me) was a tad misleading. Thx for the video!
@@Thomas-zt7dmyea, that’s because he’s a dumbass and has no business telling others how to train dogs, he is wrong most of the time and his dogs are out of control and take over the park with pack mentality
Wow, this was more heart-pounding than a suspense movie. I would have a heart attack if I had my dog at that park and those dogs rushed up on my dog. Whew. Glad there were no fights.
That was really interesting. I've had 3 GSDs in the past but, even with that experience, I learned a lot from this video. The way you pointed out and explained all the different behaviours was really well done. Thank you 🙂
Beautiful Shepherd, I love GSDs, had one for almost 13 years. Most majestic, intelligent and protective dog ever. Unfortunately it passed away due to hip dysplasia but would not hesitate to own 1 or 2 more :D
Yeah well you're dog is extremely pushy, as a professional dog trainer, I specialize in German Shepherds, Belgian Malinois, Dutch Shepherds, Rottweilers, Dobermans, you don't have much control but you try to act like you do. At the time frame 4:40 to 4:50 when the shepherd tried to teach your dog social queues which you clearly didn't teach your dog at the exact time frame of 4:45 you say the GSD is being submissive but you can clearly see he's agitated via one sign on his back that all professional trainers that handle working dogs look for. I train the dogs I listed above professionally for Search and Detection, Bomb Detection, Drug Detection, and Executive level protection. When the dog comes out of our program they're more obedient than your standard police K9, our dogs are war ready and they know one thing, and that's work. You don't know what you're doing and you really need to stop trying to teach people the wrong thing on TH-cam, put down the camera, get off the computer and actually go to professional classes with your "WORKING DOG" As someone who has a GSD themselves I never bring my GSD to the dog park because he's 145 pounds of meat missile ready to work, and he's not done growing because his older brother who is 5 stopped growing at 5, and he weighed 165 pounds. When you have a working dog you need to keep them as a working dog and not a social pet you take on a 20 minute walk and take to the dog park.
0:34 dogs don’t form in packs like wolves due to the neoteny of domestication so saying “leader of the pack” isn’t exactly accurate. 2:39 They are not pack animals like wolves and often times they rely on foraging for scraps over actual hunting. This leads to them congregating in large groups but not structured packs like what the video insinuates.
Not True.... they do have the "pack" instinct still in them, if you own a dog they consider YOU.. part of their pack...that's why YOU must be the alpha in the pack.....other wise the dog won't respect you ...or listen to you.....and that's when owners have problems..
I would have said that all the domination rituals indicate that they do still have the "leader of the pack" gene intact. Not every dog has such aspirations but a percentage do and that's pretty much the same as in a wolf pack. They don't ALL try to be top dog/wolf. Most herd or pack animals have an established hierarchy which they all follow until a genuine challenger steps up.
Would never take my dog to a dog park because I don't know the owners & dogs. Would never mix small dogs with large, either. My dog goes to daycare--supervised, similar size dogs & all vetted before being placed in a play group. This is a disaster waiting to happen.
I really enjoyed the play by play of details because I don’t know much about dog body language and communication. I wish there were more of these kinds of videos. On a side note.. your shepherd is like my sister's dog - rude, gets up in everyone's space, doesn’t respect boundaries, and very pushy. Also it's dangerous to not even have a leash on you, especially at a dog park. No matter how well trained your dogs are, they're animals and they have instincts. If a squirrel jets out in front of them, they could run.
If you want to learn how to interpret (and 'speak') dog body language a good starter book is Turid Rugaas's 'On Talking Terms with Dogs - Calming Signals'. If nothing else you'll understand that dogs are conflict-resolution machines, watch the dogs in this video, how they curve into each other, slow down when required and are using body language extremely well to communicate constantly and effectively
when you let your dogs go into the water, do you have any safety concerns like gators and such? Im from florida and was just curious how you feel that interaction would go in general bcuz water like that around here is almost guaranteed to have gators in it
And that is why I NEVER take my dogs to a dog park they are a accident waiting to happen random dogs charging over to your dogs, they are a bloody menace.
100% agree. I trained Police and Military K-9s and that dog named Ronin is a mauling waiting to happen. Nothing good or cute about it. I'd train that crap out of him in about 2 weeks.
I know a little about behaviour but not even close to everything. I love watching your videos and your pack. Dogs are beautiful animals who are constantly talking to us and it is our responsibility to learn their language and make sure they are secure and feel part of our pack! That is how you show ultimate love to your dogs (along with appropriate food, medical care etc of course)
sad to say this guy may think he knows dog behavior which he does- slightly. his dog lacks clear boundaries and structure. i would never let my dog jump over a fence Especially at a dog park, ronin lacks respect for other dogs because hes so used to being the one in charge, ronin has a huge ego and thinks he can boss other dogs around, as you saw how he acted towards the poodle, ill go into more explanation how how ronin lacks boundaries and structure. though he seems to be trained, his behavior is not being corrected, you can have a trained dog but you also need to establish good and BAD behavior between dogs, this includes impulse control and how to show your dog how to properly greet. Ronin is used to being overly dominant, overstimulated and thinks its okay to march up and correct any dog he sees without knowing them, Ronin is simply a bully and you can tell by the way he acts in every video. There is no structure on who ronin needs to listen to. and alpha mentality has been disproven countless times over and over again by scientists and animal behavior experts including zoologists. Ronin who is a malionis, which is a breed that is extremely strong spirited and only the best for working breeds, and NEEDS structure including tons of behavioral training. my personal opinion is that they are not great with other dogs. they are overly confident which results in the behavior ronin is displaying which is ignoring boundaries thinking they can do what they want and overpower other dogs. which is NOT ok. Ronin is an overly dominant dog that is also displaying behaviors that are dangerous to other dogs, he overcorrects, and tries to dominate dogs, you can tell by how he reacted with the poodle, he tried dominating the poodle but because it was so submissive he got bored of it. with every other confident dog he encounters he feels he needs to 1 up them and boss them around when half of them just play confidently without dominant behavior. Ronin needs better training behaviorally and boundaries need to be set.
This is the third video from this fella I have watched and he is completely wrong in all of them. Not leashing his dogs before the gate. Wrong. His dog jumping the fence to scare, intimidate and crowd dogs while they are on leash, very wrong. Never let your dog crowd dogs on leash. Stupid. This video just letting your out of control dog crowd and intimidate all other dogs. Letting your dog jump on people. And then the audacity to act like he is to instruct others on training. He is exactly why I never go to dog parks. Fools that think and act like they know so much while doing everything wrong. In another video his dog, out of control jumping the fence and he blames the other dog for getting aggressive, of course it did, you don’t control your dogs, ever
That German Shepherd is a wonderful dog. I liked the way he was herding and trying to make your Malinois behave.
Haha that german was going to come with ya
Dont tell me youre worried about, Ze germans 😂
The only problem here is that “Ronin” does not seem to respect other dogs’ “personal space” as you call it. Ronin is kind of a dick.
absolutely 🤨
I was thinking the same thing
Ronin thinks he is boss , but he a bully
Ronin is reactive and this shit of a person sees it as an ego boost
I think it may be the breed. We own a Belgian (not my choice however I have learned to love her a little) and she is extremely bossy.
I NEVER take my small dog to a dog park because of dog owners like this guy! His dogs need professional training.
Bully dogs need training now.
His dog is better trained than yours.
lol they're dogs... it is simple instincts to smell one another, that being said most small dogs aren't socialized enough with large dogs and tend to be reactive. That's why I only go to dog parks that have split pens (small, large, and combination).

And I get it, it must be intimidating for them, but if you're going into a combined pen like this guy your dog should be friendly to all dogs no matter the size or energy level or it shouldn't be there at all
Dogs correcting dogs is always the best type of training. There's only so much a human can do tbh.
ronin was in EVERYONE’s personal space though🫤
Lol ngl that was true but nobody else was in his space😂
I said the same thing I don't ronin is bad but Def should be more cautious especially at a dog park Karen's galore
Well this guy has 3 large dogs hopping out of the drivers side of a silver jetta.
That should be all you need to know.
💀
It's a Mal... nobody has personal space with a Mal around...
Your dog is jumping fences and trying to dominate every dog in the park. Fences are there for a reason.
I have to agree that dogs shouldn't be allowed to jump boundary fences in public areas.
but they can, maybe those fences aren’t good enough,

Look, letting your animals sort it out on their own is fine in a private setting, but you are allowing your dog to be too overwhelming in a public space with other dogs that are not "family." This is the exact reason the German keeps trying to intervene. With you having so many dogs, you should not be distracted, especially since you know that your Milionis can be a bit much for other dogs.
It just goes to show how much attention to detail dogs have to noticed every small detail to gauge each other. Fascinating .
It's fun to think that we humans have the same priming. Tonality, faces, posture, silence. Gift of fear
I like your account and how it points out body language but I do want to point out that
1. At 3:35, sure Ronin was trying to play, but when he runs up on unfamiliar dogs like that and neither owner is close enough to correct the situation, the other dog is probably gonna feel the need to correct him (unless trained otherwise)-which is what I think that dog did. It seems you might’ve mistook that for “play”, but Roxy looks like she’s correcting Ronin and he kept pushing her to the point where she felt like she had to defend herself. She didn’t just become uncomfortable with the intensity, I don’t think she wanted to play to begin with.
2. Your dogs (Ronin, at least) kinda bully the other dogs and tend to not be very respectful when it comes to boundaries/personal space. Not sure if it’s intentional, but I do see a lot of dogs getting scared/feeling the need to correct them.
3. Whether you’re a handler or a dog, it still sucks to be ran up on by unfamiliar dogs (and can be Very unsafe for everyone involved). I saw one person trying to correct your dog for jumping on her. Not everyone who walks by the park with dogs is planning on actually interacting with other dogs, I know people who train their dogs outside of dog parks and their dogs would not do well being ran up on by large, unfamiliar and unleashed dogs. I also know a few people who might try to defend themself and their dogs by using something like spray or large sticks to prevent fights. A lot of people are not willing to risk traumatizing their trained/in training dogs.
Please consider this.
100% agree. Ronin is very poorly trained. That dog is a menace and will ultimately maul someone or their dog.
I love you way you taught your dogs to ignore heckling dog! I've been trying to teach mine the same but she's pretty nervous and reactive around other dogs.
So your dog is exactly like the one in the video?
The “get over here” at the very end has me crackin up
wow, just couple minutes in and so much information already. great captures, thank you for making this! you got a new sub :)
Please read other comments. These dogs are winning fights yes... but that's what's happening. Fights.
Love your videos thanks for the excellent content!
Seems like the German Shepherd was the one doing the corrections to the Belgian wasn't it?
My read is that starting at 3:56 the GSD was continuously splitting, referred to in the video as 'herding'
Yeah, but ronin can do no wrong 🙄
@@angryiguana7492ya this dude’s content has gone downhill in my opinion
I'll add that I do think very highly of my GSD, but I know his flaws. One of which is that, even if I did socialize him as much as humanly possible and a puppy, COVID did hinder that progress and now today I'm cautious. He's great and usually not the instigator, but I know. His signs and protective nature and I'm very cautious and watch him like a hawk in public places.
I'm not saying these dogs aren't well trained or even completely safe (which I personally would never label)! But seems like he thinks too highly of his dog. And it's hard not to do, just like children, you see nothing but greatness and potential out of them.
I really loved the video and his perspective of the outing at the dog park. It was a great watch and I really hope I'm not biased because of my love for GSD (which I don't think I am in this situation). But I think the Sheperd was naturally following his instincts and doing what was right in that situation.
Long message, I've never watched any other videos of this person but I must say that it was a really great watch and my only point is that the headline (to me) was a tad misleading.
Thx for the video!
@@Thomas-zt7dmyea, that’s because he’s a dumbass and has no business telling others how to train dogs, he is wrong most of the time and his dogs are out of control and take over the park with pack mentality
Wow, this was more heart-pounding than a suspense movie. I would have a heart attack if I had my dog at that park and those dogs rushed up on my dog. Whew. Glad there were no fights.
That was really interesting. I've had 3 GSDs in the past but, even with that experience, I learned a lot from this video. The way you pointed out and explained all the different behaviours was really well done. Thank you 🙂
I love your videos man!! keep it up keep more coming you are near 100k!!
I love those analysings
i love your videos been watching it since 2 days i love it sooo much its fun
Ron in was a pain in the arse the entire time.
i love these videos sm
Just so casually cleared that fence. Much athletic..
The vids are great pls keep posting more
Beautiful Shepherd, I love GSDs, had one for almost 13 years. Most majestic, intelligent and protective dog ever. Unfortunately it passed away due to hip dysplasia but would not hesitate to own 1 or 2 more :D
Another Great Video and Nice Day Out at the Park with Your Pack. Thank you for sharing.
Alli see is your dominance dog showing agreess😮
Thanks for the upload. Great content as always.
Great video. Thanks for posting.
that behavior by both dogs is why I always conceal carry my Sig P-228 with 147gr hollow-points.
You have gone to the dogs!
NO to dog parks. period
i love your vids!!
bro got hops
Imagine being that excited abt anything!
The German Shepherd just wants to have a good time lmao
Yeah well you're dog is extremely pushy, as a professional dog trainer, I specialize in German Shepherds, Belgian Malinois, Dutch Shepherds, Rottweilers, Dobermans, you don't have much control but you try to act like you do. At the time frame 4:40 to 4:50 when the shepherd tried to teach your dog social queues which you clearly didn't teach your dog at the exact time frame of 4:45 you say the GSD is being submissive but you can clearly see he's agitated via one sign on his back that all professional trainers that handle working dogs look for.
I train the dogs I listed above professionally for Search and Detection, Bomb Detection, Drug Detection, and Executive level protection. When the dog comes out of our program they're more obedient than your standard police K9, our dogs are war ready and they know one thing, and that's work.
You don't know what you're doing and you really need to stop trying to teach people the wrong thing on TH-cam, put down the camera, get off the computer and actually go to professional classes with your "WORKING DOG"
As someone who has a GSD themselves I never bring my GSD to the dog park because he's 145 pounds of meat missile ready to work, and he's not done growing because his older brother who is 5 stopped growing at 5, and he weighed 165 pounds.
When you have a working dog you need to keep them as a working dog and not a social pet you take on a 20 minute walk and take to the dog park.
( note: Shepherds are never " finished" with their sticks..LOL)
I love this kind of content🤩
Such good dogs
0:34 dogs don’t form in packs like wolves due to the neoteny of domestication so saying “leader of the pack” isn’t exactly accurate. 2:39 They are not pack animals like wolves and often times they rely on foraging for scraps over actual hunting. This leads to them congregating in large groups but not structured packs like what the video insinuates.
Not True.... they do have the "pack" instinct still in them, if you own a dog they consider YOU.. part of their pack...that's why YOU must be the alpha in the pack.....other wise the dog won't respect you ...or listen to you.....and that's when owners have problems..
I would have said that all the domination rituals indicate that they do still have the "leader of the pack" gene intact.
Not every dog has such aspirations but a percentage do and that's pretty much the same as in a wolf pack.
They don't ALL try to be top dog/wolf.
Most herd or pack animals have an established hierarchy which they all follow until a genuine challenger steps up.
Would never take my dog to a dog park because I don't know the owners & dogs. Would never mix small dogs with large, either. My dog goes to daycare--supervised, similar size dogs & all vetted before being placed in a play group. This is a disaster waiting to happen.
Awesome video! Thank you so much! 😍🐶
It was like a clown car full of dogs 🤡 🐕🦺
WOW😮😮😮😮😮😮
What a beautiful dogs....
My pit-heeler × would turn your "Ronin" into RUNNIN'.
Another good one so interesting thanks!
Resource guarding isn’t an issue til it’s a behavior issue. Boundaries are IMPORTANT especially between dogs
I really enjoyed the play by play of details because I don’t know much about dog body language and communication. I wish there were more of these kinds of videos.
On a side note.. your shepherd is like my sister's dog - rude, gets up in everyone's space, doesn’t respect boundaries, and very pushy. Also it's dangerous to not even have a leash on you, especially at a dog park. No matter how well trained your dogs are, they're animals and they have instincts. If a squirrel jets out in front of them, they could run.
If you want to learn how to interpret (and 'speak') dog body language a good starter book is Turid Rugaas's 'On Talking Terms with Dogs - Calming Signals'. If nothing else you'll understand that dogs are conflict-resolution machines, watch the dogs in this video, how they curve into each other, slow down when required and are using body language extremely well to communicate constantly and effectively
Excellent. THX for sharing!
So cool, how do you decipher all these dog codes. Amazing 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Great video lesson brother.
when you let your dogs go into the water, do you have any safety concerns like gators and such? Im from florida and was just curious how you feel that interaction would go in general bcuz water like that around here is almost guaranteed to have gators in it
And that is why I NEVER take my dogs to a dog park they are a accident waiting to happen random dogs charging over to your dogs, they are a bloody menace.
100% agree. I trained Police and Military K-9s and that dog named Ronin is a mauling waiting to happen. Nothing good or cute about it. I'd train that crap out of him in about 2 weeks.
WHERE IS THAT?
THAT is one heck-of-a-DOG PARK!
WOW!!
I really like your content.
This is why I don't do dog parks. I'll socialize as needed but like I always tell people, I can't trust your dog around mine.
I know a little about behaviour but not even close to everything. I love watching your videos and your pack.
Dogs are beautiful animals who are constantly talking to us and it is our responsibility to learn their language and make sure they are secure and feel part of our pack! That is how you show ultimate love to your dogs (along with appropriate food, medical care etc of course)
sad to say this guy may think he knows dog behavior which he does- slightly. his dog lacks clear boundaries and structure. i would never let my dog jump over a fence Especially at a dog park, ronin lacks respect for other dogs because hes so used to being the one in charge, ronin has a huge ego and thinks he can boss other dogs around, as you saw how he acted towards the poodle, ill go into more explanation how how ronin lacks boundaries and structure. though he seems to be trained, his behavior is not being corrected, you can have a trained dog but you also need to establish good and BAD behavior between dogs, this includes impulse control and how to show your dog how to properly greet. Ronin is used to being overly dominant, overstimulated and thinks its okay to march up and correct any dog he sees without knowing them, Ronin is simply a bully and you can tell by the way he acts in every video. There is no structure on who ronin needs to listen to. and alpha mentality has been disproven countless times over and over again by scientists and animal behavior experts including zoologists. Ronin who is a malionis, which is a breed that is extremely strong spirited and only the best for working breeds, and NEEDS structure including tons of behavioral training. my personal opinion is that they are not great with other dogs. they are overly confident which results in the behavior ronin is displaying which is ignoring boundaries thinking they can do what they want and overpower other dogs. which is NOT ok. Ronin is an overly dominant dog that is also displaying behaviors that are dangerous to other dogs, he overcorrects, and tries to dominate dogs, you can tell by how he reacted with the poodle, he tried dominating the poodle but because it was so submissive he got bored of it. with every other confident dog he encounters he feels he needs to 1 up them and boss them around when half of them just play confidently without dominant behavior. Ronin needs better training behaviorally and boundaries need to be set.
This channel is a hilarious example of all the worst ways to be a dog owner.
Why???
This is the third video from this fella I have watched and he is completely wrong in all of them. Not leashing his dogs before the gate. Wrong. His dog jumping the fence to scare, intimidate and crowd dogs while they are on leash, very wrong. Never let your dog crowd dogs on leash. Stupid. This video just letting your out of control dog crowd and intimidate all other dogs. Letting your dog jump on people. And then the audacity to act like he is to instruct others on training. He is exactly why I never go to dog parks. Fools that think and act like they know so much while doing everything wrong. In another video his dog, out of control jumping the fence and he blames the other dog for getting aggressive, of course it did, you don’t control your dogs, ever
Throwing all those dogs in that lol ass car 😂
