I have a 4 month old Malinois, 2 Min pins, tons of free chickens in my back yard and 4 cats. As long and you socialize your dog with small animals at a young age they’ll have no problem being around each other. The cats literally cuddle with my malanois they love eachother.
It's because YOU are a beautiful person. You have a pure soul
I’ll tell you what I’ve had pitfalls in my whole life I’ve dealt with aggressive dogs my whole life I grew up with German shepherds and this dog completely worked me more than I worked him unfortunately I lost him in November somebody had him at the car best dog I’ve ever had in my life these dogs do not take correction well
I just found your channel, my 19 yr old son, took his own money and purchased a 5 month old GS from a bad situation to basically rescue this poor dog, who was chained up outside and never allowed indoors or proper outdoor shelter or socialization, this was in mid January in Chicago. Unfortunately she is anxious and very scared of strangers, we found a behaviorist and a trainer to help us train Athena, This dog is so sweet and fun, she is obsessed with playing fetch. She loves children. I thought she was a working line GS, now I’m convinced she is a BM. She is 60lbs, muscular and insanely fast, her body is aero dynamic, she looks like she can fly when she jumps, she’s so smart. Listens really well, except when she is stressed out and trying to hide, It is very hard to train her in the presence of people she does not know, so I can’t really take her to do agility training because she completely shuts down and hides around strangers. Trying to build up her self confidence, I’m going to devour your videos looking for ways to help this sweet girl!
Don't push her. Do lots of praise and tell people to ignore her. Belgians do much better if it's their idea to approach people.
Rather than agility, look into nose work. It can really wear out a Belgian.
I've had Belgians for 35 years. Groenendael are the easiest. They are more sensitive and really want to please. Tervuren are a little more high drive than the black dogs, but very similar. Laekenois are probably the mellowest of the 4, but also the hardest headed. They are either the best dog or the worst dog. Depends on what is going on. Malinois are the ADHD dog. Fantastic if you can channel that energy and intelligence.
She could be a working line German Shepherd or a working line German Shepherd Malinois mix. I see many many many Belgian Malinois these days advertised as Belgian Malinois from backyard breeders that are actually crosses up the two. Remember that unless you're breeding Sable to Sable or black to black, black and tan to Fawn Malinois will result in a fawn coat.
I've even seen Belgian Malinois that look like a Malinois but they are black and tan with the saddle back with from the German Shepherd. These dogs are most often crossed as well and Holland because they keep an open stud book on the Malinois and they will purposely outcross every 8 plus or minus generations to increase size and this is where the different colorations and come in and a lot of variety of type. Crosses of the toucan look like a purebred GSD only a little bit smaller or a purebred Malinois only slightly larger.. also what matters is what they are crossing with. If Crossing with a show line German Shepherd they will look different than if they are crossed with a working line they will resemble more of working line Malinois or Shepherd
Most often you can tell if it's a mix if the head type is wider. Belgians have a very very narrow head whereas working line German Shepherds have a beautiful big wide head and bigger muzzle. I have seen 60 lb small working line female German Shepherds that are extremely agile. If I could show you pictures I would but my point is it that it is very likely that the dog could be a mix of the two or even just a purebred working line small GSD.
To guy who asked how to effectively convince a positive ONLY trainer that balanced training is best, my heart goes out to you. This is one of the most frustrating things I work with. Just one example: 3-year-old pit mix has been at shelter for 2 years. Doesn’t get walks or training because she’s too f’ing strong for most of us and prongs and “choke” collars are not allowed at the shelter. I finally got permission to take her off shelter grounds to “train at a quiet park”. I did it so I could use the tools that would work for her. She would get so excited every time I came to pick her up to train. Why - because I was abusing her? No, because she was getting clear communication through the use of an appropriate collar. She learned to walk calmly and was adopted 4 months after I started working with her, AFTER TWO YEARS working with the shelter’s positive only trainer.
My thoughts: do whatever you have to do to get through your time with that trainer and then move on to a more fair, effective training plan with your dog.
I hate this positive training crap. I’m all for being positive and rewarding your dog but there’s gotta be a line somewhere especially with troubled dogs. Training tools are just that, tools. I adopted a kill list dog with a bite record and got a earful from a shelter supervisor about how I should use a gentle leader vs a prong on walks. My dog is a big dna tested pit/chow/boxer/gsd mix who is extremely leash reactive/fear reactive. In the beginning he would literally do flips and redirect on me while basically going nuts on leash. He scared everyone. He would have been out of a gentle leader in a heartbeat. When they told me that’s what I should be using I looked at the guy in disbelief and asked “have you even met this dog?!” They continued to follow my dogs progress on social media and 6mo later they asked me if I’d do a tv interview for the shelter because the dog turned out to be one of their best/most reformed cases & they wanted to promote their pit bull program. I declined and told them their training did nothing for that dog 😂 I love him so much I don’t know what if do without him. They were wrong about everything they told me about his behavior and advised me on training. It’s so so important to find a balanced trainer if you don’t know how to do it yourself. Wishy washy magical treat training doesn’t work in all circumstances.
Right! After my Malinois kept playing tug with the lead during walks and our trying everything to stop it, it took one vinegar water spray in the mouth. No more grabbing the leash.
My first dog was a Rottweiler. I think, they are very different from Malinois, because they are very calm and "serious" dogs with low temperament. Rottweilers need (and love) regular obedience training and long walks, but compared with Dobermann or Malinois, even German Shepherd, they are like a rock compared to a whirlwind.
In fact, my Rotti was a worse guardian dog than the Samoyed I own today, because he was scared of absolutely nothing. He didn't feel it was necessary to bark at strangers approaching the property.
He was very protective of me though and wouldn't allow strangers to touch me. But he also understood not to harm people.
For example he didn't want my mothers guests to shake my hand.
So he placed himself in front of me and (no barking, no growling) pushed their hand away.
He also protected my room against everybody, except my sister. When my grandma once just walked in, he gently grabbed her by the sleeve and simply stood there like an anchor.
That sounds like a dream Rottie 😍 Protective without being aggressive or harming anyone. Just generally, I feel like many Rotties are actually gentle giants, however with a bit more seriousness and protectiveness than an average dog
Kinda sounds like the lightest form of resource guarding
1. Show/lure
2. Teach
3. Reward
4. Correct
Bonus: be fair
I had big bone Dobermans before. They were perfect. Now I have a Malinois 3 month puppy, and I see in him a dedicated pet. So young yet his potential to be a super faithful pet.
Just now watching this. Still very good content. Regarding a mal and cats. We slowly over months have introduced and incorporated our 8wk Mal and three cats. Now Marz is 6mos and the cats are not a trigger to Marz at all. They eat together and two of our cats will seek Marz out. The third cat is more standoffish anyways and does not mess with the doggo much. Once Marz was let out in the back yard and one of the cats got out. Now we have a pen that we put the cats in the garden, so be out is not a bad thing but I was worried that Marz would chase the cat. And she did but not in attack, but as herding. We knew the Mom and pups were raised around chickens and the mom was not into harming them, but would often herd the hens. We lucked out because we didn’t not intentionally screen for compatibility. I think they will be cuddle buddies in another 6mos. Feed them together and show the Mal early that the cats are protected.
Your show makes me love and appreciate my mal so much more! Thank you for being a knowledgeable voice for this amazing breed!
I adopted a black Belgian malinois at one year of age, she had no prior training. She was free. She rescued kittens on our farm and became their "momma" , I then decided to get her a blue heeler puppy. They're best friends on first introduction. I've spent very little time training my dogs. Though we live on 30 acres they don't work. They just go and do what they want and are massive undestructive couch potatoes. Idk how I got so lucky to get two purebred working dogs that don't do any damage when not assigned tasks and for free because the original owners say they can't handle them. It's been a year with the mal and 4 months with the heeler and no problems what soever.
Large property probably helps a lot.
There are differences even between the breeds. In deciding to get a second dog I looked at Border Collies and Malinois. Over the years I have owned many GSD's, including the working line. I work from home, walk them about 3 hours a day, train about an hour a day and use them for herding. Activities include obedience, scent work and heelwork to music freestyle. So on paper, I would be considered a reasonable candidate for these breeds.
I often look after my sisters Border Collies and found them much more intense than my working shep. For instance: waiting for me to throw a ball. My shep will be watching me not the ball, eager but in a half sit. The collie will not take their eyes off the ball and if I do not instantly pick it up nudge or bring it closer. Both breeds will do a full day work/activity - but when you want to relax in the evening my shep will be happy to curl up next to me. The collie will still be bringing me balls - take these away and it is toys - take these and they constantly get up to pace. I cannot relax - because they do not.
My friend is a dog trainer for the police and describes the difference between the GSD and Malinois in much the same way - the Mal has no off switch. She says both are equal in work, although the GSD can be slightly easier to train. I asked why use Malinois - her response - they are lighter and handlers are required to demonstrate they can carry the dog. It is easier for a woman or man with a slighter build.
Nothing like a good Robert rant! 😂 The knowledge you’re sharing with us priceless, thank you 🙏🏻
awesome hey
I've been wanting a Mal or Dutch for about ten years, but I've never been in the position so I just watch videos and go to competitions.
We were given a pup thru circumstances that was a mal / healer cross that is a perfect fawn color , she is well behaved but still has a good personality just not as athletic , you might enjoy xplore your options .Just a thought , you don't have to about them jumping a six foot fence like nothing .
im in the exact same position

@@beckywatt5048 The reason they didn’t get a dog, if you read the comment, was likely because they’re a responsible person who realises the dog would need more than the commenter could give. Just because you love a breed is not a reason to get one. Not getting a dog is often the right thing to do.
I’m getting my first Malinois in Nov. I’m in a tight knit psa club that helped me find one. I train pet dogs for a living. I STILL feel unprepared and nervous for this wee pup!!
Heyyy how is it going?
yes how's it going?
Nothing can prepare you for a Mal 😂 craziest smartest wildest cuddliest dog ever
Love a Robert Rant 😀 Am a new Malanois owner , it’s going well but it’s a sharp learning curve Robert says it straight , enjoy listening 😀 Janet’s at ⛳️
I know I will never get a Malinois, but I enjoy watching them so much. I am 70. I've had several dogs, most of which have had dominant personalities but I'm aware enough that I'm not in the position to handle a dog that needs so much stimulation.
I got a DS/GSD (half and half) that was an "accident" according to the breeder. I am hoping to have the best traits of both breeds. I was surprised to hear Robert's comment, and truly hope to optimize the decision and training.
My work schedule changed. New schedule makes it challenging to work my Mals as regularly as I use to. So I ordered a slatmill (K9 propelled treadmill). They are not cheap but is worth it. Now I can put them on the slatmill before I head out for work or when I get back late to help release some of the energy. One has to be creative in finding solutions to keep them healthy and happy. Thank you Robert for all you do.
Every time I see anything about a mal i thank jesus christ that mine is mixed. I knew I wanted a pitbull and he was just beautiful completely jet black shiney sweet sweet puppy. I didnt care that he was mixed. I had heard of mals before but didnt bother to brush up before I bought him. Hes a year old now and I just discovered balanced training after being positive only my whole life I've had some small dogs and mostly rottweilers. Ive had a prong collar for about 2 weeks and wow what a difference. No more jumping and loose leash walking like pros. I was on the verge of considering rehoming him, your videos played a part in saving my dog. I'm ashamed I even considered considering it, hes a wonderful dog just needed more guidance. Hes gotten all of 4 pops of the prong.
I have a Doberman, and I’m getting sold on the prong collar too... at just 4.5 hes gargantuan, and so strong, but now that it’s spring, we need to do a lot of leash training..
Prong collar it is!
@@erikal5218 congratulations i hope it goes well for you ❤ research research research work with a professional if you can ik not everyone can but its definitely worth the money.
@@blair2486
I looked into training but found that it would be beyond our means.... that said, I had a good couple hundred hours research in before I got him, and haven’t stopped yet.
😂
It’s going remarkably well... I’m a stay at home, almost empty nester tho, so I’ve been able to dedicate virtually all my time and attention to him.... I wouldn’t recommend any working line breed for someone who doesn’t have basically 24 hours a day they can commit. 🤣
Everyone that comes around/meets him, is thoroughly impressed by, “How well behaved he is at such a young age still”, so I’m sure I’m making all kinds of mistakes, but what I’m doing right, seems to be having the strong hold. 🥰🥰🥰
I have a saying: ENERGY HAS TO GO SOMEWHERE. If it isn't thru their FEET (walking, running jumping, digging) it will be thru their MOUTH (barking, whining, biting, chewing, etc).

it is not energy (that’s physics), it’s attitude
@@sylkebambilke1364 all living beings are energy and you can’t expect it to be ignored. Go tell a young dog that has been crated for a week he has to adjust his attitude 🙄

of course all beings have and need energy, but what we speak about is behaviour

let me take a guess: you are self proclaimed? my ethology prof called this high frustrated self proclaimer (qed)
but go on
the day is your friend, or is your teacher (again and again...)
We have a 4 year old Mal mix who is incredibly chill (she would much rather sleep on the couch than to train for hours). Her only real problem is that she has separation anxiety when we both leave.
Treat toys. Leave fast while bowl of food being eaten. I mean fast.
she's on medication to help her isolation anxiety. We leave her a frozen food-filled Kong bone and treats. We've learned to leave fast.
Hi Robert .. Steve from Australia here. I love dogs too and I love your work and sense of humour .. keep up the good work 👍
hi thanx for all you share.
Scotland. X
I never feed my dogs in the morning .we go out and train, I train with food I train two of them together when I say Platz they stay there until I get the next command , so I can work with one at a time and when the training is over we run back to the house and they have breakfast and so do I
Appreciate your candor!! Need some of that as i embark into daily adventure with my Mal puppy. Love the solid obedience direction. Wanna sit down and have a cup of coffee with Robert. No BS
? My 13 year old malinios choose me he has always been by my side. The other pups in the litter came up to me and left came to me and left area, but my boy layed in my lap as soon as I sat down amongst the litter and never moved
How can I find out when the next one will happen? I unfortunately missed this and have some great questions about my Malinois in Schutzhund. Or, where is the best place to get on the "ask me anything" list? Thanks kindly
Rescued a dog, thought it was a German shepherd mutt mixed with some small/mid sized dog that shrunk her and would mellow out the shepherd in her.
Turns out she is mostly Belgian Malinois, then GSD, DS, and Australian cattle dog.
Now I am taking this dog everywhere to keep her stimulated and she is super sweet to everyone. She relaxes at home and is affectionate.
Love the dog, and want to take her on hikes. Only thing I don't like is I work a lot but thankfully I have family that'll keep her company during working hours.
Robert sharing your knowledge is “catchy”. Really like your new software that displays question.
This show was so great! Thank you for always trying your best to answer all our questions. Btw I had to drive my husband to Chicago downtown so I made him wait for an hour while I was parked and watching/interacting with Robert and other viewers. Haha.
Love this, Milena. Priorities!
LOL
Our lives are so similar my husband and I own a few taekwondo schools and we have been teaching kids since we were teenagers. We love Mals and are learning more and more about them. thank you for these videos
Awesome.
I have my second Belgian Tervuren. They are great but so much work. I was not prepared for the intensity and willfulness the first time. Whew - fast learning curve! Two Belgian breeders told me, "Oh since you've had Shelties and Ridgebacks, you'll have no problem with a Belgian." WRONG!!! Not even close in temperament!!!
It went smoother with my second puppy because I had experience and was prepared for the insanity of the first year. He's my shadow and friend - ❤❤❤. He's a lot of work but worth it.
Thanks for the advise. I personally love cross breeds because they do not get so sick as thorough breds. I just yesterday bought a cross german shepherd and Belgium Malinois male puppy. Already hooked on and is by my side. Stops when I do, play with ball and cross through my legs. Brilliant dog!! Played hide and seek and he found me in one minute! I use to breed with German Shepherds in my young days. Especially need this dog as I just bought a plot 6000 square meters in Bathurst Eastern Cape, South Africa. It is rural with nothing on it. Going totally off grid. Protection and work. Thanks for the videos.
Just bought myself à beautiful solid black male Dutch , 10 weeks old, working class line,,, already looking good an listen great, got him on a tug an holds on strong, I watch your videos an take in all I can learn,,, thanks for all your expérience

I have a Belgian, rescued 1/2 Boxer 1/2 Pit, a Rott and a rescued Labradoodle.
They are a handful but I live on over 17 acres in the country and am very hands on with everyone of them! And I am 64. You take time with each one individually and then all together!
Thank you
I have what I think is a cattle dog/mal mix. As a puppy, he was nice to everyone, people, kids, other dogs, but as he came into his own, he started displaying over the top protective behavior around my apartment building and with kids. At the dog park down the road, he’s an aggressive player but otherwise fun and energetic. It took me looking into this breed for me to understand his drive.
Whether or not there is mal in there, I have insight into how to work with him
What important do you place on seeing the mother and the father before you buy another dog or I’ve seen both mother and father mother and when I’ve seen either and I’ve noticed a subtle difference but I can honestly say I’ve noticed dramatic difference because I took a lot of time to find the right dog and went to a lot of breeders by recommendation reputation with the rep recommendation any thoughts
Best Answer at 38:05 to Averey McNarland... Met too much of those kind of people. I celebrate you! Greetings from Germany
Hi Robert
I am from Tbilisi Georgia, great show and pod cast
? How long do I need to train with my Mal in a day ?
Another excellent video I get irritated by the "mal snobs" in the groups I belong to forget they once was a first time Malinois owner and its really sickening the way they act ppl asking legit questions that anyone doing their homework should ask and will attack these ppl instead of giving solid information about the dogs...those ppl "tattle tales" we call them Karen's and Kyle's they drive me crazy they are the ones who negative about prong and ecollar and crates and will claim "their dogs are perfect and have never chewed up anything" and we all know that's a lie unless by chance they got their dogs pretrained and older never in my life have I ever had a puppy that hasn't chewed something up my weimaraners were far more destructive than my mal really has....hey I commend you for being a stay at home dad ....I stay home for our Malinois and I've typically been stay at home for all my animals including the horses....you have helped me so much with our first mal who's working lines hes not what akc would actually consider full since has gsd in his blood lines he was bred by a cop for a number of reasons to be dual purpose dog with better health better off switch we absolutely love him he can go from bite work to sent work to being content chilling with us on the couch we are in love....thank you for all your amazing videos cause I truthfully wouldn't dare ask fb mal groups we also have a amazing trainer who is our k9 officer who knows mals and mal/gsd they import from Germany hes also a trainer for the department and works part time as a trainer for off leash k9 all the trainers at our location are cops or military with excellent backgrounds with k9s
Love you show ❤️❤️❤️
I’ve seen a lot of young Dobermans listed on Kijiii, similar to Craig’s List, lately and it breaks my heart and angers me. I know the bond they develop with their owners and how mine would be affected if I ever gave her up. Do people think a working breed dog, or any dog, comes trained? Yes, mine looks great when I have her out in public. But her behaviour didn’t happen overnight. I spend time training her every day without fail. Even with the training she has, I continue to work her on those skills to hone them and keep her sharp. All my Dobies have needed to be worked. People really need to do their homework before getting any dog. It will change your life and you either better be prepared for that or do not get a dog.
This dude is awesome
I've Re Subed cause I didn't want notifications anymore but when my mum got me one of these hell-hounds ; ) as a surprise I thought who knows what they're talking about? And you were the first source I thought of, especially after using your techniques in the past with my nephews reasonably stubborn English Staffy. With success.
Loved this. I’m a year late, but thankyou so much
A novice can definitely own high drive dogs. I adopted a 7 year old retired mal and an 8 week old gsd at the same time. I now have 2 gsd and 2 mals. It just takes consistent training, and you can never allow them to become dominant. My original mal is now 11 and is the best dog I've ever had.
Where the tshirt link? How can we buy a shirt?
Got my first malinois she's twenty weeks she's hard work but so is my other dog wants exercise constantly I walk her three times a day but she's a loyal amazing companion who pushes boundaries yes always but if you have the will to be there for them and there needs and can do it beautiful amazing dogs
Thanks!
THANK YOU!
Marc from Belgium. Look out for epilepsy in Groenendaal and Tervurens.
? My name is Karl, I have 12 molinios, what tips can you provide to help deal with training them. By the way their 9 weals old
Totally agree with the dictatorship- thanks for pointing this out. God help this country (USA). I have a puppy Maly named Arioch- he goes with me EVERYWHERE, and he IS my life! Because of this, he is very calm, considerate, and well behaved. I have had many dogs, and I must say I LOVE this dog! I've never seen an animal so affectionate- he actually HUGS our family members- I did not train this and am BLOWN away by the intelligence of this dog. These dogs ARE a whole different class, and I did my homework and was ready for the commitment. I can only hope and pray that others do the same when getting this type of dog!
?I had a Labrador Retriever up until a month ago. He died. He was 9 years old and VERY active. I trained him up to a point were he would walk beside me without a leash. We were outside for about 5 hours/day. Tomorrow i'm going to see a Belgian Malinois puppy. To be honest, I'm really scared. I need tips...What can i expect?
Can you talk about SAR-W from both the human and Malinois aspect? Physical requirements, training, preparedness, etc.
I just got a Belgian Shepard she is 2 months. I started training her from watching videos. She’s is so darn smart I am loving this dog. I would love to find an experienced site for a puppy and me training. I’m in the Orange County area. Any recommendations?
I’m watching with my dog right here he is passed out but hearing the dogs bark I was waiting for him to get hyped lol thankfully I wore him out today
Yes I did, a young 5 month rescue girl,4 months ago, and I absolutely love, love loverher. So does my 16 yr old APBT. She is smart, happy hyper personality, eager for any new adventure, loving and is turning out to be the perfect dog I needed. I rescued her, but she's rescuing me.
Thanks to you I actually was prepared to adopt her. I hope she lives as long as my 16 yr old pit whom she is cuddling with as I type this. Thank you so much for the free tutoring on how to handle a working dog. It's made our life wonderful.
Very informative.

Glad it was helpful!
Great video, funny too 🐺❤️🔥
Great video working dog is the reality!
My kelpie cross was amazing boy was he smart, if there was nothing to do he slept all day but if it was time to do things he was on and never stopped.
I need examples!! What kind of jobs can I give my Malanois?!? Maybe I’m not understanding. Please help
Wow I really enjoyed this video
Love the open and honest approach here. Subbed.
Hi sir
Wanted to know can belgian malinois survive and live in super high altitude at height of 17000 ft and above?
Robert, what do you think about including in basic obedience the word SETTLE? Or CALM?
Sure.
Couple of summers ago a bloke (accidentally) killed his kelpie playing "throw ball". He thought the dog enjoyed it because it kept going. Dog died of dehydration/heart attack. Working with herding dogs(eg. koolie) you've got to call them in to give them a break; they'll keep going. "Red Dog" the movie came out; Working Dog Australia had to re-home 2,000. They were not looking forward to "Red Dog pt. 2" A lot of people didn't realize what they were taking on. In their first year Border Collies have a high "dumpage rate" (clocked in Wales as working 74 km a day. Huskies, 30km a day.) Taking a 'working dog' out for a long walk hoping to tire the dog won't work. The likelihood is the dog will get super fit and you'll get super exhausted. Fair leadership comes from benevolent dictatorship. Don't worry if your dog doesn't eat for a couple of days: in the wild the dog wouldn't eat for a couple of days; fasting helps the digestive system re-align; going hunting with the dogs we don't feed the dogs for a couple of days beforehand.
Point of this? I think most smart people know not to keep working a dog in the heat

Hi Robert I'm from England great show , I have a cane corso he is 6 months old he is great I feed him raw food he loves it I research that breed for 8 to 10 months love him to bits he eats better then me and eats before me to , great videos , keep them comeing 👍👍👍👊🏆💪
IF The dogs eats before you He is The alpha and you are The beta.
A dog is an animal. He should not be the leader of your pact. Get training and education.
Hi robert im a big fan albert from phillipines
Great always
? - 50/50 Doberman-Shepherd (mom purebred shepherd/dad purebred Doberman) @ 4.5 months old:
He’s nipping at/chewing at/chomping at our hands. Very much in a playful way, and he’s at a peak in teething (losing baby teeth daily), but we need to curb the mouthing behavior stat. When he does it, I’ve been saying, “No” (which he normally understands & responds to well), take hand away, and immediately give one of his chew toys.
Am I essentially rewarding the behavior we don’t want, without realizing it? By trading my hand for a chew toy? Cuz his urge to hand chew is not stopping, and that’s not typical for him with corrections, so I’m definitely doing something wrong. Just not sure what.
Other techniques? Thoughts? Thank you!
So I just got to the end of this feed, and may have heard the answer... you were referring to a Mal, but said to expect biting for at least a year? Is my correction ok, or am I actually rewarding the biting behavior when I immediately give him a chew toy in place of my body parts? 😂
?How many hours a day do you recommend if you own a Dutch shepherd? When are you too old to own a high Drive dog? Or is it really more about your activity level?
I'm pretty familiar with working DS. 2 hours a day minimum engagement.
Your very informantative! I have a female 8 mo. Old. I want to know why my puppy gets so excited and litterally tells me off! "You left me, you left me!" And jumps at me and takes myvhand like sje pulling me into the house, when i come home. Why is this and what can i do to correct it? Thankbyou , Lucinda
??I have a Mal rescue puppy. Was in really bad conditions. He is 3 months old. How do I get him from barking and wanting to run towards people. He loves attention but is rude about going to get it. Please help. I really want to keep him
I'm a dog trainer from Uganda and I'm asking about the relationship between short coat dutch shepherd and Belgian malinois
What type of injuries do you find the dogs Incure, they seen muscular but they hav thin legs and they just go like a bat out of a heck . Do they suffer more injuries and if they do or they don’t are they prevalent to certain kind of injuries more so than other dogs if you get a chance let me know thank you very much
Great to hear you say that these high drive dogs need so much more. My Border Collie will need at least 4 hours EVERY day. Out at 5am in the dark with a light collar on and a torch. It has to be done. I always say FAIR, FIRM and FUN are key to building a fantastic any respectful relationship with a working dog. Sorry I missed the live. Thanks Robert : ) Positive Only Does Not Work. Never will with a high drive dog...such ignorance. Rolling my eyes skywards. sigh.
My gsd gets 6 hours work a day. Misses one session it's.. hey mum let's go go go...6 minimum.
?my rescue seems to be k9 trained how do I change his focus from me being the perp
😂 Good luck
Robert Cabral how does one reach out to you for questions?
👋🏼 from London
I would like 2 thank u 4 the good work u doing, I have a malinois 4 months old ,how 2 make him stop pulling me when I take him 4 a walk I'm a slow walker due to my handicap right hand right leg thank you again
I have same 4 months old . He does the same too but recently we have started using the prong collar. And he behaves well.
I hope this helps you .
Watch my videos.
You could be like ceaser and get a visula and a set of roller blades , just some humor , I thought that episode was really good , love to see a dog in their element and really enjoying themselves , that's what it's all about .BTW two male labs I raised a couple of yrs ago were the same way , hard to handle and I'm 6'7 275 lbs .
Teaching heel is your anwser.
New to channel.
Have you used a flirt pole with goofy?
Have a GSD that loves tug and fetch with frisbee. Not sure if enough or more options would be beneficial.
Nope
I say we just zapp more people than dogs. People get dogs based off of the look and keeping up with the Joneses. There is a breed for every human out there people just need to invest the time to understand this I love your videos thank you for being you!
Sorry to miss the live broadcast, but this is super helpful! Thanks, Robert! By the way, you’re doing great!
? I have a 1yr. Belgium Malinois female. How do I have her he along with my rest of my animals.
I am going through and watching some of these older videos. I have enjoyed all of your videos that I have watched thus far. You are what I would call an old time trainer, who uses common sense and looks to the individual dog for what it needs in how to teach it. New trainers think there is one tool in the box and that is the treat/clicker combo pack. Not all dogs learn the same, a good trainer, listens to the dog. In my opinion. The Utopia trainers who think their way is the only way and every other way should be banned, are the ones who do the most damage to dogs as a rule. I have thought about getting a Malinois for the past 30 years, I have had Rottweilers for 44 years. I kept saying when I was ready to downsize, I would go with a Mal. I love a dog with some drive, I love a smart dog, a dog that thinks and also a dog that wants to work with it's person. When I am ready, I will be adding a female Malinois to my 2 male Rotti house.
I have a GSD his 1 years old so smart and active but I would like to get a friend for him like a female Malinois, is this a good Idea?? I am retired and don’t have any young children.

When your puppy/dog arrives that is the time to start training. It's starting to work you and the relationship out. Not talking about high obedience training.

? James From New Zealand, I am very interested to know what the Vegan Power Couple feed their dog?
So true about the cats, we have a lot of stray cats that come in and out of our yard. Kinda moronic if you ask me they know there are two large dogs that live here. My Malinois / kangal mix finally corner one …didn’t kill it but just charged it and smelted it.
Or county Corso is a high drive dog
