I've never read a book so fast! th-cam.com/users/postUgkx1_veP7CApJK_GWy_TczaMciuG64PqJeU Learning about his dogs and experiences was just the icing on the cake - bed this book through and through. We're working with our new pup and Brandon's advise was just what I needed. Wish he'd just come and train for me haha but it's good for us and happy to have this new set of tools to use on our pup.
I love the clarity of this. As a dog trainer, the hardest part is explaining to the owner and getting them aligned with the ethos. This is extremely useful, thank you.
Found you a couple of days ago. Subscribed after just a couple of videos and have been blazing through your content ever since. I love how your approach is a combination of old fashioned common sense and not so common intuition, which, in my opinion, is the most effective way to handle most of what life throws at us. Also love the clean cut look you're sporting recently; it suits you.
Leadership is love. I love that idea in the dog's world!
Thanks Will!
Love that calm and confident leader! Thanks for your videos.
Thank you Will. My Jack is coming along quite well thanks to your video's and advice. Today I was amazed that we walked by numerous people and he didn't even bark.
Thank you 💜
From one Canadian grandma and one very happy German shepherd, and the 30 older farm folks who live in my small town.
👍❤🇨🇦🎄
Thanks for another helpful and insightful video. I can’t imagine Eileen being aggressive as she’s always so sweet and calm when we see her, but the larger the breed the greater the damage so leadership is key.👏
That dog is so chill
you’re the best man just got a rescue dog and he’s leash aggressive but the biggest sweatheart off leash and i’m gonna be training him by your videos! thanks for everything from me and tan man(dog)
Excellent explanation! No Matter what your opinions, or your defined system of training, what Will is saying is spot on true!
If you don't give your dog the leadership it's screaming for, it will do what it needs to, to achieve it themselves or give themselves the feeling of self preservation caused by fear, insecurities and lack of confidence in keeping other dogs away!
Excellent video Will.
"Leadership is love." Brilliant!
you title this video “how to stop your dog being aggressive” but you don’t show any physical solution to the problem. i appreciate the psychological basis of your teachings and i love your input on the matter of how a dog thinks. but i do not think any of these tips are physically useful. we as subscribers don’t have any “homework” we could take home and physically apply to our dogs with the information given in this video. “be a confident assertive leader”. what does that look like? what are steps or exercises we should do to show that? When is the timing of the correction with aggressive dogs? How do we perform the correction? I appreciate you making this video but titling it “how” is misleading
How are things with your dog now?
I need some tips for a new pup, but she's a small dog. She's friendly but has started to show signs of aggressive behavior. She's young, so I want to nip it right away.
How do I react to her behavior?
Yes, he does- Crate training, use a muzzle, loose lead walking training, and be a calm assertive leader at all times so that your dog won't make bad decisions on their own or will accept correction when a wrong decision is made. He clearly states that there is no magic wand to correct aggression, so if you are expecting one, your expectation is unrealistic and impractical. In short, dog training is a process and journey.
Thank you, thank you, thank you, Will for sharing your knowledge. The Fenrir Akita Show gave me the guidance to save an Akita that was put in my path to adopt. Following your advice, this Akita is becoming my dream dog. Thank you again.
yes ! "Leadership is love"
Great advice!
Will, can you PLEASE do a video on erratic AROUSAL BITING in large adolescent dogs? I can't find any decent videos online about dealing with this but have found lots of posts from owners having the same problem I'm having.
I don't think my 1 year old dog is inherently aggressive, but she struggles with over-stimulation and over-excitement when off lead on walks and at home, which ends up in brief moments of madness when a switch goes off and suddenly she's too overstimulated so chooses to jump up and bite crazily at my arms/clothing. Sometimes it is hard to spot when she is about to go over threshold and my clothes are getting ripped (plus it can be quite scary). She's never broken skin, despite being 48kg. So it's somewhat controlled bite/mouthing outbursts that appear to come out of nowhere and end as quickly as they start, then afterwards she is back to being her usual calm friendly self, but in that aroused state her eyes are wide and dilated and she looks like a totally different dog. She doesn't growl or snarl in these moments, just jumps and bites.
Please help!
I got a dog very similar actions as yours, hoping 🙏 we can get some help x
That is a beautiful dog! I have a Presa who can be reactive but it seems to be out of fear. I have muzzle trained her and it is very helpful in places like the vet where she is terrified. Well done video and appreciate the information to use going forward with her.
hi Will thanks so much for all your tips .. my central asian shepherd starts following me ..still I do work to stop his independent decisions. you are helping a lot I wished u saw the progress. best from snowy Poland
Many thanks Will, I have a loving one that's five months old but is out of control. We have had our successes but getting her out of that free thinking and aggressive mode is taxing us. I can only see her rebelling with a mussel. We are committed to her future.
My rescue dog was attacked a few weeks ago in London and since keeps trying to attack other dogs. It’s been very stressful and scary.
We have had him on a muzzle since we first got him, mostly because he tries to each everything! But now, we just can’t have him around other dogs! Been watching a ton of your videos so hoping to see some changes ❤
I love your videos, watch every single one of them 🔝 Everything you say is true and works
What do I do when my dog isn’t aggressive with our family but aggressive with friends and other family members that come to visit?
Really need these types of videos, Will.
My dog will threaten to bite (and sometimes does) when she's touched while in a relaxed state/lying down. I would love any video about how to help a dog not react so aggressively in these situations. I have a baby on the way and am worried about the future of my dog and family.
your dog will prob love and protect the baby but that`s where having a crate will be good, the dog can have a wee den to hide out, and when you are busy and can`t fully supervise the situation, baby will be safe.
Start crate training now. It’s the best way to keep everyone safe.
I disagree with these comments, I wouldn't keep any dog that shows aggressive tendencies around a child. Our family dog just attacked my 9 Yr old a week ago, he's been in hospital and had surgery to stitch up his head, could have been worse if I was not there to pull the dog off. Not worth the risk in my opinion..
@@emjane74 Most of us view our canine companions as family members and are willing to do absolutely ANYTHING to rehabilitate that family member. I'm sorry your situation ended so poorly BUT...in most cases there will be multiple red flags that could be addressed before an attack. Resource guarding is the #1 earliest sign of aggression and it is so often overlooked by uneducated dog owners. If you can't place your dogs favorite meal, treat or toy on the ground and walk out of reach without your dog taking it....yoy have work to do!!! If you and your children can't grab your dogs food bowl and take it away during feeding YOU HAVE WORK TO DO!!! Excluding extreme situations, there are no bad dogs just bad dog owners. They are uneducated and do not put in the work!
@@DrippingWithSin Dave, The dog did not resource guard food or anything else, She growled at my 9yr old only and was assessed by a dog behaviourist when we first took her in.. I'm glad u are willing to do ANYTHING to rehabilitate a dog after it attacks your child, no thank u but my son comes first and I would never put him in harms way again. The way u say there are no bad dogs only bad owners makes me think u have met every dog and their owners and done case studies, I guess there are no bad people that commit crimes either, must be their parents fault? It's always people that haven't witnessed a dog attack on their child that say there are always red flags etc, I would have thought the same before, not now. Like I said in my original replyif u have an AGGRESSIVE dog remove it if u have kids, simple!
you are phenomenal!
Yes I believe your right.
Liking your videos. Could I ask how you would control a aggressive dog. I have been recently out walking to a location to take some photos, and was pinned down with 3 dogs. 2 stayed at distance but a collie dog was feet away from me growling showing teeth. Took owner a good 5 minutes to get to me. I did try my clam voice talking to it.
Definitely
I love your videos❤️
Long video without info for me. I can't get this new dog on a leash or muzzle. Right now
Hi! I have a question. I have one year old épagneul breton. She has been always playful towards dog, well little provocative too. I should have probably stopped this right at the begging but I didn't realise and hoped it would go away. Well she always kind of push other dogs who would bark or growl at her. She run around and tried to play with them. Today one dog who, in the past regularly growled at her, went to her from the back she didn't know about the dog minding her on business. Her reaction was that she turned around and probably little bit bit the dog (I didn't see it properly). I immediately recalled her and she came to me. My question is what should I do in situations like this? Usually she doesn't attack dogs I think she felt threatened. However she should not react like this, probably. Thank you for your advices.
Any suggestion on how to train a board collar , not to chase or lunge at Cars?
Your vids are very educational been training to become a dog trainer thanks . A lot of people in my neighborhood can’t even walk a 40 lb dog they let the dog pull towards people like a mad lad and bark very aggressively I swear some people don’t need dogs lmao
Omg! I love that dog❤️
I try so hard to get her to loose lead walk but it’s a struggle as Incan do it whilst I’m treating but as soon as she gets the treat she switches off totally ignoring me. It can be very stressful I love her to pieces but I don’t feel when we are out she bonds with me. Although indoors she is loving towards me.
I think the problem is that a leader should lead, not bribe. If you have to bribe to get her to follow, you are not really "leading" but "motivating" her with a treat. Your dog is not looking to your as a Consistent Assertive *Leader*...only a treat source. If there is anything I have learned watching dog training videos, it is this: the problem is not with the dog (in 99.99% of the cases) but the owner. Just curious, what bred do you have?
"Leadership is Love!" - That should be a new logo on all your gear: t-shirts, hats, collars,... you might successfully run for Parliament with that slogan.
Can you give any advice on dealing with a French Bulldog?
My French Bulldog is extremely protective when we go on walks, anyone who comes near me, she's gets very hostile.
How would you deal with resource guarding between dogs when me and my wife are eating one of the dogs. He is a more bully pitbull and we have an American pitbull, so he’s a little bit bigger in height, but the smaller one, whenever the bigger one comes around where we are eating. He growls and has a snaped at the other dog every now and then he doesn’t do it towards people. But both of them try to show for dominance. Of each other they have both been with us since 8 weeks old and they are 7 years and 5 years old it is the younger of the 2 that is doing this and it started when we had our son 3 years ago it’s not every time but when it happens I try to stop it but when I move or acknowledge that he’s doing somethings, he shouldn’t he stops, touch his tail and lays down
The part with being a calm and assertive leader is so FUCKING important for bigger dogs or THEY WILL LEAD YOU.
Sorry, I tried to listen to your words, but the beautiful English mastiff kept my attention throughout the whole video ; ).
Question: what's your view on praising via kisses? Wondering how the dog sees a human lunging towards their face and making pecks at their head
I’m 33 and just got my first dog. It’s a blue brindle pit and I’m having the hardest time with him. He’s so sweet. Loves me so much. But he can be Fiesty sometimes. Barks like crazy when he’s not getting the attention he wants or when I leave him even if I just leave the room and he bites. The bites aren’t always hard but I’m noticing he’s almost snapping at me sometimes. Is this normal?
Hiya mate I had a cross pit and found out there loyalty dogs but they get very jelouse easy just watch some videos based on that if u are still having problems
You need to show in more detail how a loose lead walk can be achieved.
How can I stop my German Shepherd to stop taking me on walks, loose leader is not an option at this point.
I need to do better for my dog. I need to lead more
4 tho.. That's it it, 🐾.
Lead by example
I have a alpaha American bull bitch and she is an absolute diamond but still very up and down not aggressive with family or kids but a handful on the lead and never sits still in the house . Any help or tips are welcomed. Yes she was babied by the wife at young age but very manageable with me
or what about if it is your neighbors dog that is aggresive
I have a big problem with my dog, so 5 dogs 4 of them do nicely behaved and without a single gram of aggression, but 1 male dog is becoming impossible to handle there is never any blood or injuries but I’m sick of this tension
All my dogs are rescue dogs and the problematic one had all his teeth pulled out his jaw broken and I found him on the edge of life, from the begging he was always growling and attacing his sister now all the dogs are afraid of him and do as he wants he is basically the leader, he doesn’t attack for any reason just because he feels everything in the house is his own property and doesn’t want to share, I yell at him an break them up but then I feel bad becouse I know I’m responsible and didn’t teach him better
I love that Queen Eileen is the star of this video, she's so terrifying 😇❤️❤️❤️
It says everything when u got 39k views with 940 likes.
My dog is aggressive when it comes to food
Crate training solves nothing
Wouldn’t the muzzle make the dog go crazy? And more aggressive and violent
No, it may seem like that to other people because there’s a stigma that muzzle = this dog WILL bite me. Totally not true.
Eileen is such a sweetheart 😋
My dog hates men. He’s as sweet as can be around me and other women, but around men, he acts like a rabid animal.
Thanks for nothing.
