Don't you just love how it's not only a dog training walkthrough but it's also a vlog? Zaks a legend!
Your the first dog trainer that I know that actually shows what happens behind the scenes of teaching a dog
Hi! While I LOVE all the Reality Dog Training episodes, so far all the dogs featured have been large dogs. Do you plan to do a run featuring a small dog, like a toy breed, sometime? I find a lot of people tend to treat small dogs entirely different (not even treating them like real dogs), so it'd be interesting to see a Reality Dog Training series featuring something like a chihuahua sometime. Keep up the awesome work!
A reactive chihuahua would be amazing to see
I would highly recommend clicking the bell to get notified when we post new episodes…. Not for any specific reason…… but you MIGHT be interested in what comes after chop………. 🤭🤫🥸🥸🥸
@@breejustine Awesome!!!!! Looking forward to whatever it is
Can't wait to see a tiny dog being trained 🐕
My 4 year old daughter and I have started watching a Zak George "dog learning things TH-cam" every night before bed, and @Zak and @Bree the child says you two are, "the nicest doggo mom and dad ever" and she wishes all the puppies of the whole world had dog parents like you two 🥰 needless to say, we love you guys!
OMG-- I was laughing out loud watching the part on counter surfing. Having 6 big dogs that is always a continuing learning experience.
Chop has come so far! He's doing amazingly!
Chop reminds me so much of my parents Alaskan Malamute. Even though she's grown up around people, she is still a bit of a wild child. These videos have been so good to watch!
I've put in an application to adopt a greyhound and they are apparently notorious counter surfers because of their height; this video is perfect prep for the oncoming training necessary !
When I train a dog out of a undesired behavior I want him to genuinely understand he simply cannot do it instead of not doing it only because there is something else better to do
That takes a lot of restraint for a dog who got his meals when opportunity struck on the streets to leave it. It took months to keep our adoptee from the streets out of the trash until she learned she would be reliably fed. (And a trash can lid that secures!)
Chop has the cutest expressive face... he is on board for any adventure you have in store for him! And he seems like such a happy dog... he's wagging his tail as he is staring at scrumptious fries and a burger on the counter, and he is still wagging his tail when you call him away to get some kibble. He is a good boy... and you guys are doing great with him. 😊
LoL at the "Leave it" to Bree. I could see it going through Zak's mind before he did it. Too Funny
Chop REALLY wanted the food 🤣…you worked so hard with him and he finally is getting it👏👏way to go chop💜💜💜
Chop has come so far trying to figure out what humans want! He is so very good!
THE DNA RESULTS ARE COMING! Super excited to see what he is and if I was right- also it’s so great to see Chop making steady progress!
One of my clients right now got a crazy dog. She been trying the all positive teaching to keep him off the furnature and table tops, but it was just not working. Now that we are adding more non pain corrections such as a vibrating e collar her dog is making leaps and bounds towards a better behaved dog. I have an E collar that does not even have the shock feature.
Yees! Preventing bad behaviours, give distance to your dog and also time to process all those feelings and changea. Great episode😄 iI love how you’re honest and realize you can use a less aversive method 👌🏼👍🏼💪🏽
Dogs need boundaries like kids and firmness/assertiveness has its place.
I agree that sometimes you have to be firm. Assertive? Depends on how you define assertive. The science says you don't have to use punishment and that you don't have to depend on aversive techniques (and doing so can make things worse--resulting in aggression). I always equate being "assertive" with being domineering and demanding and willing to get your way even if you have to be rather physical about it.
@@janhankins911 where is the confirmation for that? Or even just the studies that suggest that? Really interested in reading…
@@FullOfRandomness02 I think a lot depends on how one defines "firm" and "assertive". If, by firm, you mean mean-spirited, I don't agree. If by firm, you mean consistent and becoming a benevolent leader, then, yes, you need firm. Check out any journal article or textbook by a positive trainer and you'll find your confirmation. Victoria Stilwell, Zak George, Dr. Patricia O'Connell, the late Dr. Sophia Yin, Dr. Zazzie Todd, Pat Miller, Emily Larlham (Kikopup), Dr. Alexandra Horowitz, Dr. Nicholas Dodman, Dr. Debra Horwitz. I could go on, but I'll leave it at that. That's an excellent start.
@@janhankins911 I’ve read articles by trainers.. but you mentioned science. So i want to read the actual scientific studies. Sounds super interesting
@@FullOfRandomness02 I don't think there really is any "science" on setting boundaries for dogs--but there is for children. That has worked for the trainers I've watched and studied and has worked for me, but I couldn't really find any "science" on that. I could find some on consistency of owner behavior. For example, Arhant, et. al. (2010). Behaviour of smaller and larger dogs: Effects of training methods, inconsistency of owner behaviour and level of engagement in activities with the dog. Applied Animal Behaviour Science, 123 (3-4), 131-142. Faguzza & Miklosi (2015), Social Learning in Dog Training: The Effectiveness of the Do As I Do method compared to shaping/clicker training, Applied Animal Behaviour Science, 171, 146-151. There are others as well. Do a Google Scholar on something like "owner consistency in dog training".
I think you’re great with him. I have a siberian husky (read ABSOLUTE BRAT, LOL). I used a shake can (soda can with some pennies inside and taped shut) to train him to stay off the kitchen counters. It worked beautifully and one year later, he still doesn’t get on the counters, no matter what is up there. He just sniffs and walks away.
Chop continues to make good progress. It may be slow at times, but he is learning. And you did have some breakthrough moments with him, so that is great! I believe your patience and persistence will pay off, so don't give up being a dog trainer. You are a very good one! I can't wait to see the DNA results! What a teaser!!! Keep up the great work, Zak! A new series could be Reactive Dog Training, LOL!
I am really interesting in how Zak is working on his reactivity to dogs as that is our pups main problem! Excited for next weeks episode!
I love seeing the real struggle. It shows how much work it takes. Appreciate you being real.
I love the way Chop looks at you. Pure joy in his face. I’ve been training my collie for 2 years and boy she’s a challenge. 1step forward and 6 back. Some days we just get it so right. .
Zak’s videos have made us hopeful in our training journey, and our dogs did evolve from half-obedient huskies to 80%-obedient huskies (sometimes) thanks to all the great training tips Zak gave!
That’s as good as it gets with a husky! Ours understands most commands but is very selective about when he chooses to obey lol. Still training…
What a tease!!! I have been wanting to know what breeds he is since the beginning! He's just such a gorgious boy! 🥰
This video is so relevant for me. Just 1 hour ago my dog pulled a glass off the counter top and it shattered. Can't wait to try some of these methods!
This came at the right time! All of my fosters want to take food off counters in front of me.
I mean...I feel like a well placed "No" to set boundaries might have solved this in no time...or create a no chop in kitchen rule?
I agree. I wondered why he didn’t tell him no. Seems confusing for a dog if it’s not clear what you want or expect from your dog.
Hi Zak (and Bree)! I’ve been a sub since I got a miniature poodle in 2019- exactly the time you started your dog training series with Inertia. ❤️
I’ve really enjoyed all of your dog training series since then. Honestly, “reality dog training” is such a novel idea in the internet space. Bravo. 👏
I just had to comment that in this thumbnail Chop looks like a puppy in both shots of him! Cant wait to find out his breed (hopefully) next week. My good friend and neighbor has an unknown breed dog that I am very sure is majority Anatolian shepherd. He’s naturally extremely territorial. He’s also really smart and perceptive.
I saw in your live stream that we should stay tuned for a small dog series. I love all dog breeds but would love to see this one specifically. Trying to train loose leash and deliver treats to a small dog that’s so low to the ground is difficult and back breaking. I’d love to see your adaptation.
I love how Zak tries to train Bree to leave the fries alone :-)
Love the videos! I inherited a 6 year old dog with ADHD (can dogs have that?). He is a 6 pound Yorkie so like, the opposite of Chop. Great dog but soooo challenging. Still working on house training… how is that going with Chop? Do either of your books cover the following: how to train a mostly blind and totally deaf dog, how to keep a dog from scratching at the door to be let back inside, how to keep a male dog from spraying ALL OVER EVERYTHING!!?
Keep the videos coming!
One more thing… here is something I’ve gained from watching the videos that might surprise you. I am a highly reactive person and still struggle with anger issues. Watching your videos has been a huge help in reminding me of the value of patience and kindness, not just with dogs but in a general sense. You [and Bree] are such a good model of the importance of compassion, a calm demeanor, understanding, and patience. Thank you so much for all that you offer!
Thanks for the tips. I am a foster carer. I had a Amstaff, one day I was preparing chicken, I was distracted and had to leave the kitchen by the time I returned the 1 kg (2.2 pounds) of chicken had been devoured by the dog (fortunately I had anther Kg in the freezer). My only solution was to ensure all food was pushed to the back of the kitchen bench. I now have 2 Japanese Spitz the male tries to check out the counter fortunately he is too short to reach the top. I will try your method.
Another great video! The DNA results are my biggest interest. He looks exactly like my friends dog (who was also rescued from a remote village, but as a puppy). I'm so anxious lol CAN'T WAIT
I agree with Bree. The fries are the best part of these kinds of meals. MMMM.
Hi 👋
🍟❤️🍟❤️🍟❤️🍟
You’re my favorite dog trainer (and the only one I watch tbh lol) because you keep it real, you show your struggles and how you overcome them and I’ve learned so much from you :)
Chop is extra cute!
Can't wait to find out what Chop is! I just ordered a doggie DNA test for our new pup. We live in rural Iowa and my brother in law was in a combine, harvesting some corn, and found a 8-10 week old cold, wet puppy, and we took her in. if I had to guess a german shepherd lab retriever mix because or her markings and labs are everywhere here.
We had already been thinking about getting a puppy soon (I wanted spring time because potty training isn't so cold, but here we are!) and she looks so much like our dog that passed a little over a year ago. I've been binging past puppy episodes, but she figured out she needs to sit to get attention/food the very first night she was here and has been doing amazing in the kennel and potty training- still doesn't have it perfect of course, but she catches on quick. She's very smart and just what our family needed! ❤️ Oh, and we of course called her Harvest- but Harvey for short. 🙂
You tease! lol I know several of us have been waiting to see what breed he is. Now we're anxiously awaiting the next video :) I've been watching you for at least 10 years, and I love how your content has evolved through the years. You and Bree make a wonderful team! Though I don't think you'll ever train her to leave the fries. I have the same problem with myself! lol
Hi
I would love a dog as handsome as chop!! Nice follow through, and progress in just days
Going to take a lot, a lot of time. We recently, well a year ago, adopted a 4.5 year old, unsocialized 90lb male German Shepherd. He's doing well, not perfectly yet, but we'll get there. Very smart and athletic, loves loves loves Kong discs. Not extremely fond of anything on four legs. We've tried space, great for a short time. We've tried various refocusing techniques. To tell you the truth, I don't see him ever getting to a point where we can let our guard down. On a walk, no distractions, perfect. Distractions? Depends on the day, but usually begins with over stimulation, restraint, refocus and retreat. Can't get far on a walk that way. Not a fully fence yard, 1.25 acres, natural barriers mostly. He's learned the boundaries, and stays in those boundaries, even when the neighbors are out or making noise. If they have their dogs out, forget it. He did bolt for the lot line and it took 3 no commands, but he did stop a few feet past and did an about face butt skid to obey. NICE! Very pleased with that. We'll keep it up, but I feel that it will be age that deters him most. Had we gotten him sooner, it would have been a different story.
Ah, can't wait for the breed reveal! my guess is some german shepherd in there!
My GSD is getting so many compliments from the other dog walkers thanks to your training advice! thank you so much for making this all free!
Zak: Leave it, leave it
Bree: Chomp chomp chomp.
Lmao.
Like to see you walking Chop with a long lead. I actually do this for my dog when we're in areas where you can't let them off. I have a 30' horse lunge-line for a leash (I couldn't find an affordable long leash here in Canada and the lunge lines were only $30, so it was a good compromise.). I love it because I can roll/loop it up and have a short leash where necessary or let her off to be 'off leash' without endangering her. Although you DO have to watch for distractions. If the dog decides to take off and chase a deer, or a cat, or a squirrel. . .it can hit HARD. -.- (Learned that the hard way. Oops. NOpe. I didn't lose her, but I did get a rather nasty rope burn. lol) But all in all, it's great to give them some freedom on walks.
Good boy, Chop. He's doing so well in such a short time! I love this dog. I wish I could take him. (I can't. Between my current dog, health and current circumstances, it wouldn't work. But one can dream!) I love big strong dogs like this and he's a good boy!! I mean, he's untrained (or was rather? Still green, how's that?) , and a little stubborn - but he doesn't seem to be aggressive at all. Just. . .curious. I look forward to seeing where he ends up.
I’m so proud of how much dogs learn from you your videos are awesome and l love them and l know that even if he is hard to train you won’t give up keep up the good work 👍🏻
CHOP!! This pup is such a good boy! I have tears. He tries so hard and he is so brave and biddable. I don't know how you guys are going to let him go. Please find him someone who truly understands where he is coming from. He so deserves it. ❤ He seems to enjoy this new lifestyle with a human family! Good luck buddy!
You're the only dog trainer I can trust. Thank you for giving people reliable information about dog training!
P.S. My dog, Baxter, just jumped on the couch and licked my face as I wrote this comment.
Got alot from your videos to train my dog♥️🐶It's really working am so glad. THANKYOU!
I feel like chop is roughly a mix of German shepherd, husky, and black mouthed cur. something along those lines. Edit: maybe some Malinois/Belgian shepherd too.
Hi zac and Bri just wanted to tell you I look forward to your TH-cam video every Monday. From Australia
All these series are getting much better! And I look forward to them so much :)
You taught me more about dog training than any other channel on YT!
I really appreciate this vide, particularly the 4:30 ish point where you show that Chop wasn't listening and you had to work with him more than once that session on leaving the food alone. It's nice to see a session that isn't "one and done" so to speak. Would love to see a dog, like mine, that goes over threshold in their own home every time they sense someone near the house. How do you handle that lol.
Gotta admit, from the standpoint of an Irish Wolfhound owner, Chop doesn’t seem that big. Lol.
Bree and Zak, you teases! You're going to make us wait to find out Chop's breed analysis! Just makes me look forward to the next installment even more. Chop is doing really, really well and you've only been working with him for a short period of time. I'm having some difficulties with my little boy reacting to people. He isn't "reactive", he just wants to go visit them and get petted, but he's pulling and barking. So we've got some work to do. This little guy seems to think humans were put on this earth specifically to pet him and tell him how wonderful he is.
I can relate to this so much...
Hi
I love this series so so so much! Thank you for providing such great content and for your approach to dog training
You are spoiling us with the amount of materials you are dropping here ❤️
I don't know how to leave that type of food alone either 😂
Just a gorgeous doggie. I'd love to have him ❤️
You’re the best! Your techniques really help me . ❤️❤️
Great work! Loving seeing Chop learn and grow. :)
Good man 😊❤really smart I don’t blame him trying to steal the food 😅. Great job Zak
I remember when he had less than 500k subs! You’ve gone to do amazing things Zak! Keep it up!
🥰🥰🥰 Me too!! Thank you so much for sticking with us for so long!!! 🤗
@@breejustine of course! I remember watching him when I was only seven years old. I wanted a dog so bad and now seven years later we have 2! Zak’s videos helped a lot with their training. You are an amazing Co-Executive Producer and wife ❤️. So happy for both of you!
I think Chop s Alaskan malamute / king shepherd cross, he sure has come along way I feel, teaching not to touch food on the table or counters is a good thing , as is not allowing them to beg for food. nice to see that Chop is just observing the other dogs , not barking no lounging real nice. looking forward to the next video to see if i am correct on Chops ancestry.
Hi
I gotta know where the floppy ears come from! My northern Ontario rescue is More Shepherd than husky but the floppy ears match that of Chop.
Hey, Zak! Love your channel. Do you have videos or books on how to help train your adult dogs to get along with new dogs in the home?
This was a great episode, but nothing beats your argument with - who was it, Moira? George? - who had a proper ol' argument with you over that chicken they weren't allowed to eat.
That was Moira and you’re right it was hilarious 😆😆😆 she’s so sassy
Don’t worry, Bree! You’ll learn leave it someday!
Hi
Brilliant video as always zak I cant wait for more and to find out chops breed combination
I love how u show behind the Senes unlike the other dog trainers I know
Chop has really come a long way.
That is a very big boy!
HII I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!
Rip (Old Time Scotch Collie) and I are working on the same issue. Really good stuff here. Oh...nitpicking: after a proposition use "me" not "I".
Good job Brie, on ‘calling Zak out’. LOL. 😉😂🤠
It’s a tough job but somebody’s gotta do it 💪🤠
Fries are truly the best part of eating a burger 😄
As a vegan, I couldn't agree more!
Omg I am so early and so excited to his progress
You little teases! 😉 I've been dying to know. I don't really remember what I guessed in the beginning; and I think my list of potential breeds has grown. I hope you don't mind me playing along by listing my guesses..... 1. Akita 2. Siberian Husky 3. German Shepherd and maybe, just maybe...... 4. Wolf; and I know this is a long shot, since they're pure white, but his size and his tail make me feel there is a slim chance he might have some 5. Great Pyrenees somewhere in his lineage. 🐕🐶🐕🦺😃 I just can't wait to find out; but I guess I'll have to manage somehow. 😄
I don't understand why you won't correct him when he is jumping for the food, so he would understad that the behavior is unwanted and would learn so much faster than just luring him away all the time (not telling him what you actually want). He doesn't understand not to jump because he doesn't even know it is not wanted
He was corrected. With praise and food. Positive reinforcement consistently piled on for many weeks.
@@kristibelle9854 I would rather have used both ways; positive reinforcement for making a good desicion not to go for the food, once he knows it is not allowed. Now it seemed that Zak only rewards him for reacting to "come" or following him around but that doesn't teach not to actually jump up on the table when he is not supervised
My dog is more out of control than this one. I took him to the SPCA as a last resort and they were going to put him to sleep. I ended up keeping him when I wasn't going to. He bites, barks, jumps, tears into skin and clothes, and does not listen. I need a miracle.
In suspense! You guys, that ending was not fair
YES
Chop will get the help he needs!
hi, I am training a dog that I found she is about 1 and it is going well ty for the tips!!
I marker train, which is the only difference I'd recommend for off-leash manners around distractions. Eventually the dog sees a distraction and is conditioned to automatically look back at you for further instructions. It will work your way, but it'll take a lot more patience.
He is probably German Shepherd, Alaskan Malamute, and possibly part wolf dog
Your training video are awesome. It help me train my chorkie and now she the sweetest dog, but she still hates being around big dog lol..
YES GOOD BOI CHOP
Yes.
I have never seen you reply here, but I am going to ask anyway. Did you have a plan for if the dna results showed any Wolf? What is Alaska’s rules on owning wolf dogs? What is your personal opinion on wolf dogs as pets and does it vary based on the percentage?
I can't believe he doesn't respond to his fans.
I’m curious how fast he would regress if he gets the wrong owner… you’re great and I’m sure you will find the right person for him but it’s just a thought that crossed my mind
I’m wondering the same thing. If he goes to a novice dog owner Chop will be a real handful.
Honestly though I don’t think he needs to be the perfect dog park dog… if someone feeds him well… gives him a warm bed, room to run and all the love in their heart… big win for him!!!
@@johnwellbrock70 to me he seems like a typical independent outside dog. I'm sure he can convert him but as you said l think he will regress quickly without a very good owner. And how many owners are going to be like these two? I've seen lots of farm dogs or wrecking yard dogs that are like Chop. Smart but very independent and really don't need helicopter owners fawning over every move the dog makes. It is interesting and educational to watch their show though.
He'd absolutely regress if the new owners don't put the work in and build on the foundations Zac has laid. That's why so many board and trains don't work when the dog goes home. Chop absolutely needs an experienced owner who can be fair but firm with him by giving him clear boundaries and expectations of what is and what isn't acceptable behaviour. Consistency will be key for him to continue to grow. Easier said than done though. Professional dog trainers make traing dogs look easy. It isn't, timing is everything and that comes from real life experience not reading a book or watching utube videos. On top of which there is no quick fix for reactivity. I'm confident they will find him the right home. He's a lucky dog.
@@Heart_of_Grace this is a perfect example of why l refuse to pay more than a couple hundred bucks for a dog. I've seen awesome expensive dogs and horrible ones. Same as free dogs. great dogs or useless ones. Cost has no effect. And these dogs had good owners too. All the cost does is make people keep trying because of all the money they have tied up in it. At that point it has nothing to do with love for the dog. Same as these people keeping dogs around that are biters or cat killers but are too expensive for them to do the right thing. Anyways l feel for you making this tough decision.
So 'the reveal' is in the next episode? I can't wait to see it!
Even me couldn’t resist the burger…
As in " it's taken quite a while for (the preposition) Chop and ME (not I) Yeah....who cares.🤣
LOL I CARE 🤣🙌
Zak, you are so naughty…teasing us with coming attractions! You are teaching ME to wait!
Hi Zak, can you make a vid of how to stop dogs from chewing? (Especially shoes lol) my 11 month old beagle keeps on chewing them up
I can't leave French fries alone either 🥴
Amazing!! What to do about a dog that is small, dominant, pushy and high energy that reacts with aggression to only a few choice dogs in the area? Where the other dog is doing absolutely nothing wrong? Otherwise he listens very well to me and is highly motivated by both treats and tug toys. But some dogs he goes berserk around. Even at some distance. 😩
Well, now I WANT burger with fries. That looked delicious. I'm curious as to why not teach him "off" command when he is counter surfing, then come when call.
Dogs are best friends of human beings.l love my dog and I wish if u can train my dog.
love your training videos! I got a border collie who doesn't 'steal/take' foods when we are around (i.e. i can't catch her in the moment and she won't counter surf when we are around). however, when we leave food on the counter (tightly against the walls) and leave the house, most of the time, she would have taken the food when we get back. Without catching her the moment, how can we train her not to counter surfing?
Have you ever dealt with a puppy injury? My 20 week old puppy has had a cast on the last few weeks and we have a couple more weeks to go. It’s been really tough especially since she’s a picky eater. She barely eats on her own. I don’t wanna keep on spoon feeding her but I also really want her to get the nutrients she needs to heal and grow :(
