Just wanted to take a moment and thank ALL of you for the amazing out pouring of support from literally across the globe. It's incredible and my family and I are humbled and speechless. We did not know what to expect when putting this type of video out there. Nothing about this experience has been pleasant. Making this video and putting it out there I struggled with for days on what was the right thing to do. I was told by many to file a lawsuit, I was told by others that this will just blow over. But in my heart, whether it was right or wrong, I couldn't just sit there and let these individuals continue to tarnish my reputation over a lie. It all but killed me to stay quiet for as long as I have trying to "do the right thing" and not engage in BS. But it comes to a point that if you poke a bear long enough it's going to move. So whether posting this video was the right or wrong thing to do only time will tell but it felt like the right thing despite being very difficult to do. It's not fun being on trial and having to defend yourself in a public forum. It's even harder to do it and stay composed. But enough about me. This isn't about me anymore. It's always been about my family, my business and my customers. But, the best thing to come out of this whole ordeal is the response from all of you from everywhere and all walks of life. I am absolutely humbled by the response and never in my wildest dreams did I imagine so many of you to have so many unbelievably nice things to say. Like I said, I never did this for views. I was embarrassed to even have to film something like this. But with my wife and team by my side, they told me they believed in me and to do what I felt was the right thing to do. Again, it's so difficult to figure out what is the right thing to do in such a strange and fabricated situation as this that came out of left field and caught me completely off guard. I don't wish this BS on anyone. Again, the best thing that came out of it was each and every one of you who reached out publicly and privately to offer your love and support. It's very difficult for me to even comprehend what I did to deserve even 1% of the love and support I have received. I am truly humbled and honored to receive every single comment. My cup is completely overflowing and I just can't even put into words how appreciative I am and how much of a roller coaster ride it has been. All I can say is I have grown a lot from this experience and most importantly realize even more so how much more work I need to put in to even begin to deserve the level of love and support we have received. It's unbelievable and I want to keep pushing ahead to try to live up to your expectations of me. It's a challenging task no doubt but I will try my best. It's a very tall order but you all deserve everything I can give and more. I am forever grateful. Thank you so much. I am truly honored and blessed by your support. 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️🫡🫡🫡🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
Thank you for all the knowledge you give us. From what I have seen of you, you are an excellent human being and an excellent dog trainer. Do not allow the poisonous and ill-intentioned words of others to hurt you, you have created a beautiful family and your successful company. As we say in Mexico, when the dogs bark, It is because we are moving forward 😉 I have also seen the smear campaign against Augusto (Dog Daddy) and I can clearly see, that both smear campaigns stem from envy 🤷🏻♀️ that should make you guys proud of your hard work 💖🐶 Your human and canine clients need you.
From the American Veterinary Society of Animal Behavior "Reward-based techniques should be used for teaching common training skills as well as to address unwanted behaviors.

"An appropriate trainer should avoid any use of training tools that involve pain (choke chains, prong collars, or electronic shock collars), intimidation (squirt bottles, shaker noise cans, compressed air cans, shouting, staring, or forceful manipulation such as “alpha rolls” or “dominance downs”), physical correction techniques (leash jerking, physical force), or flooding (“exposure”). " ALL the science says to use positive reinforcement and that positive punishment is harmful to the dog.

Sir I am a former US Marine who's handled and trained dogs over thirty years, I watch your videos and I believe you know EXACTLY what your doing. I have had to separate game line pit bulls before and I have had more than a few stitches myself all of which were my fault trying to get dogs apart when others didn't raise them right or read the cues . I applaud you. There is a big difference between pets and working line/game line dogs. You are a great trainer
Omgg..I got my first pair of Stitches from breaking up a dog fight while the owner took his sweet time to get his dog. I walked away with a hole in my arm
I had a dog park friend with a highly reactive (to having boys sniff her butt) Pitbull. He used his water bottle as an amygdala disruptor: he squirted water on the back of her head and gave a strong verbal correction. Then leashed her - within 2 weeks Ruby was more tolerant and the aggression was gone. A male would sniff her butt - she'd give a normal female 'get lost' growl then immediately look at her owner for approval. 😊 ever since, I've kept a tiny spray bottle in my bag & it's brilliant to distract fighting dogs, no one gets bloodied 😊
I’ve watched practically every video Garrett has produced including the one in question, and there’s NO ONE I’d rather have training my dog than this guy…
Same here I’ll rather bring my dogs to Garret I have watch every video to and talk to my wife about people are so ignorant about dog Behavior watch wolf correcting another wolf aren’t gentle but whatever people are so selfish and jealous I’ll trust trainer have been working with dogs for years because they know better and the ways dogs will respond keep up Garrett I like your videos don’t listen to this people man
He is one of the vew i would trust blindly with the training of my dog. If i would be given the chance to let him train my very young cane corso i definitely would, without a doubt!
@AmericanStandardK9 I totally agree. There is nothing I would have done differently! I seen to many videos you put out that would make me think otherwise! I learn all the time to be a better trainer for my own dogs! Don't stop being you! Those dogs and their people need you!
I usually do not subscribe to TH-camrs (just a choice), but I subscribed to your channel as a vote of confidence in you. Thank you for saving that dog's life
I hate social media. People are so quick to jump on a bandwagon. It is seriously out of control. I love watching your videos , and the insight you give is so informative. Please continue doing what you do and I hope you and your family are getting back to normal from all of this. Positive vibes for your wife’s healing as well.
I'm two months late seeing this video, I just finished watching it. It is so professional and totally open and clear. I am so sorry and hurt that there are people who feel the need to threaten, degrade and slander others. Especially without the lack of knowledge and proof. I send you strength and support. Keep doing your job. 🐶🐾
The Guide elaborates on the techniques used on the show. The examples given in the th-cam.com/users/postUgkxECnmSvBSv_NGWx4_ChD73pF3NYZwI2F3 are helpful and some of the techniques suggested very useful. One such technique/tool suggested was the lure stick to encourage a small dog to keep up with the heel command. I have a small dog who lags behind smelling any and everything and find it hard to keep bending over while walking to his level. The lure stick is great also for another dogs focus and sprinting at anything that catches her eye. The stories about different dogs, their different temperaments, have been helpful, especially Lulu's: After reading about Lulu's challenges I felt relief concerning one of my rescues that I have had for 10 years. Over many years I have checked out many training books from the library, watched different shows, DVDS, bought training books, taken lessons and this book is the best by far! Kindness, patience and perseverance works.
30+ year Certified K-9 Trainer, and I approve his message. We save broken dogs, so that they can be the dogs you admire with the smiles on their face and contentment in their eyes as you walk past, without knowing what would’ve have become of them otherwise.
You and Tom Davis are just about the only trainers I see on social media that will ACTUALLY fix a truly aggressive dog. Kudos to you both. You have my full support in this difficult time.
They aren't fixing anything. They use liberal amounts of positive punishment to shut dog dogs.

I work at a doggy daycare and alot of your training tips have helped us break up fights before they even happen. Watching dog body language and correcting behavior appropriately. Remote collars are regularly used in our facility unless medical issues or parents disapproval. Most dogs who need an E/Remote collar will behave just fine as soon as that collar is on. They also sit still for us while we put it on.
@@shinethesky "break up fights BEFORE, they happen" We as the doggy day care staff are not responsible for training dogs. But we can at least arm ourselves with the knowledge to protect not only ourselves but the other dogs. We are not with the dog daily throughout the day. The parents are the ones that fail the dog by not training them and sadly 60% of them just think its abusive and controlling to just train the dog. We are not a training facility.
@@yourlocalnormy3596so funny, I have an e-collar for my small dog for excessive barking. I have never used anything but the beep but the moment it gets put on he never barks.
Perfect example of reading into something what they want to criticize. Your post was very clear and polite and correct I might add. BTW a more than few of the people take their knottheads to daycare hoping you can teach manners to their brat. ;
Ja mám aj protištekací,aj el.obojok,aj ostnatý.Všetko potrebné pre pittbula z útulku vychovávaného na boje.Sám zistil,že pípanie mu stačí.Ak to má v sebe,tak jedine silnejšia emócia prebije tú jeho.Amen.
I’m stunned for words. Never have I thought you and your family were going through this hell. Stay strong brother. You’ve helped me improve my Staffy and I relationship. Training is fun for both parties and is such a sweetheart from your training. Thank you
My poor Charlie was an overly aggressive German Shepard mix. I am an elderly woman and wasn’t able to control him so for nearly 8 years he had to stay cooped up in my apartment 24/7 and use puppy pads for the bathroom. Thanks to Garrett’s videos my grandson was able to train my Charlie and he now gets almost nightly walks! Thanks G
Ohhhh Karen, I’m so happy to hear about sweet Charlie! 😭♥️ that’s no life for a dog so I loooove that these trainings have helped as much as they have 🥺 and good on you and your grandson for making the change happen!!
@@amandawopaclog7615 Shame on you for your words here. People do the best they can with what they have. Would you have rather the dog gone to a shelter and be put down because she couldn't handle him outside? The dog was fed and cared for to her best ability and when she learned she could do better she got help and made it happen. Shaming people for their past when they share their story only shows you have pathetic character. Go look at yourself in the mirror, Amanda. You're certainly not perfect.
Watching the pain and stress that you and your family had to deal with is utterly infuriating and the fact that Facebook or TH-cam wont protect their users is just unacceptable. I wish you and your family all the best, you did the right thing bringing this up. Stay strong man
As a BLUE FAMILY, I was surprised to find out that you as well were part of the Law Enforcement family. I should have known better as you DID remind me of one of my LT's. Listening to your response to the rude, idiotic, ungrateful people that dared to complain about your training methods, especially reference Belgian Malinois being confused with GSD on the job he gives away his ignorance. Who knows why he got a Belgian in the first place. People that don't research about the dog they either rescue or buy shouldn't be allowed to get a dog. Cats are more their speed. Keep up the great work LT🚔🚓🐾🦴🐕🦺
Retired PD K-9 officer and you handled that *exactly* as it should be. If a dog is trying to be dominate, you have to put them in a submissive position and leave them there until they are calm, no matter how long it takes. I have scars on my hands from one of my Malinuts and putting him in a submissive position was the only way to stop him from getting over excited and biting me. You're a great trainer and I love how you handled this!
I'm sure that this haters was from the UK because here some idiot from government banned use prong collar and e collar haha only use slipped leash what it's totally rubbish and can make more harm like a good,I don't care about this and I live in UK and I use before prong collar now I stop because my dog don't need anymore I only use e collar and I have a perfect dog thanks to garret
I am former U.S. Military and soon to be retired law enforcement officer. I didn’t think the correction on the second dog was awful and the first one with the swing method was genius! If I could afford you sir I would definitely make the drive from Central Florida to South Florida 👍🏻. Keep training and help dogs so they can live an active happy life.
@RescueCrewSSO Well the truth isn't always nice. That dude just looks like he believes in 42 genders and that blm fights for some civil rights bs... so making obviously false accusations against Garrett is par for his course.
I adopted a German Shepherd from the shelter and you’ve been the perfect trainer for me. Also, I like the random deer in the background of this video lol. Just sending more support ❤️
That correction was no different than any correction I have ever seen you give on other dogs. It didn't even look that bad. Garrett, I love your videos. You and the other balanced dog trainers getting hate have helped me with my dog. Keep it up!
Wow Sarge’s transformation is incredible, it almost makes me teary. I work a lot with my dog on reactivity and the goal is to be able to get him to the state Sarge got to where he doesn’t feel on edge constantly. You gave that dog his life back and now he can be carefree and relaxed! that’s amazing
You have saved the lives of thousands of dogs. If it wasn’t for your videos my Cane Corso wouldn’t have a perfect recall, I also wouldn’t have the knowledge about bloat and all the other important knowledge to raise my corso. You are an amazing trainer and person and I would never question that.Keep doing what you do. Also props to your wife, she once liked my comments when I was backing you up which shows she cares very much about what you do.
Thank you sir for doing what you do. I'm 65 with my first dog, a standard Goldendoodle. Was very much feeling like I was in over my head and wondering what I'd got myself into. We went through two training classes starting at 8 weeks (8 months old yesterday). I failed miserably. Then I came across some of your videos and quickly subscribed. You have taught me how to be better at training and how to keep on improving. You have been the one who has kept this wonderful dog in my life! Your methods and advice, your caring and loving nature have made this possible for us. Thank You! Thank You! Thank you!
I just watched this in December. You handled this just right. I've gotten so I don't even pay attention to social media anymore. You can't do that as a businessman, and you reacted perfectly. Thanks for your videos. It's helped so much with my half husky "designer dog."
Just by watching your TH-cam videos, I change my dogs life, especially in her role in my life, so many times I was going to give her away but with your help and guidance, just by watching your educational videos, saved my dogs life, these people who are attacking you are deplorable, they don’t know what they’re talking about and my prayers go out to you, you have my family support, we will pray for you.
i watch alot of dog training vids for my husky! guy at the store told me to use the leach to hit my dog for going after garbage on the ground! ya you can guess what i did?!
I figure you probably receive many of these comments, but to add onto that pile... You are a great dog trainer and dog owner teacher. My wife and I bought the puppy course of yours for our golden and we get literally, LITERALLY, 100+ compliments in the form of "you are so lucky" despite me spending 4-5 hours a day using YOUR techniques and listening to YOUR teachings. I have never owned a dog before and suddenly I guess I got "lucky" with my first dog(even though no one saw the countless hours of training and dealing with unlimited energy golden)... the only thing I got lucky with is finding your videos. This new modern world has watered down discipline and standards. Not to get to political, there are standards that we need to uphold in life and sometimes they aren't fun to do or to create, and the same for our animals. That is exactly what you teach. Thank you for this and I will pray for you and your family.
Wow thank you for the kind words. I don't always get to read every comment but I read this one. So happy you have found success in our training. Nothing makes me happier. Thank you for your support!
@@AmericanStandardK9just because I know you'll see this. We train in some slightly different ways but I've learned some stuff from you myself. But a few helpful methods from you and more normal methods regularly get me compliments on how well behaved my dogs are. I know you'd never abuse an animal.
I am a lay person trying to learn as much as I can to raise a balanced dog. You have helped me with a couple of issues I was having. I hope your business continues to flourish. Balanced dog training is the best approach. You show that. Good luck.
Garret Wing is AMAZING! His methods are 100% effective and humane. I’ve followed him for a year, spoken with him 1:1 a few times and he’s legit AF. He LOVES dogs and their owners. He honestly wants to help anyone who has ANY kind of issue with their dogs. He is the most respectable balanced trainer I’ve encountered. He’s the real deal. Nothing but respect for him.
8:22 This is jealousy and a hater coming after u and shame on them! I'm watching your video now and like u said clout and views is what this bullshit is about. I love dogs more than ppl! I always have a golden this one Dug I had to train with an E-collar he only need the vibrations and he learned. I can tell on your videos and shorts U are a kind man with a sweet family & WOULD NEVER ABUSE A DOG! You're very very smart with your knowledge of dogs. If you weren't u wouldn't have Your thriving business and been able to retire early. I had NO! Idea this was happening to you and your family but it's disgusting to single you out like this bc of they're jealous of what have become. God bless you and your family and I hope this ends soon & well for you ❤ I've never have written a comment on anything like this before but your video has me so pissed that there's someone doing this to you and it's going public. May God protect you good ppl and may the EVIL 😈 haters get a good dose of karma and then some!! And leave the talented honest gentleman alone! ❤
Some ppl seem not to understand that there are cases where a dog needs to be corrected. This GSD with bite history would have most likely put down if the owner and Garret didn't decide to work it out. He's probably too honest to show the other side. Many trainer would hide it as ppl don't understand
As a semi-retired professional dog trainer, with K9, balanced training experience , certified ACO, and vet tech, I can totally relate! Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time. Please, don’t let ignorant people stop you from doing good work and really helping dogs that would otherwise have to be put down . Remember, we can’t save them all, including some people! ❤ 🐶
Do you mind telling me what you think about prong collars on sensitive more delicate dogs? My collie needs correction for minor issues and I don't want to hurt him.
@@sharroon7574you may get a pinch collar instead. Similar to a prong but plastic. When we started training my Irish Setter would freak out if you corrected with a prong collar, but was perfectly fine with the pinch. 2 years later she is a fantastic service dog with no behavior issues.
We need people like you out there teaching us methods to train dogs that you have perfected over the years. Without the likes of you and others I wouldnt have such a well trained and well behaved dog. For this you will always have my support
Your response is incredible. How frustrating you’ve had to defend yourself like this. I’m sorry for what you, your family and your employees have had to go through. I have spent my life working with horses. Many that were dangerous at times. I refuse to be hurt by any animal so if a swift correction is needed, I will do that. I now have a GSD (4.5 months old) and have been doing a lot of research including watching training videos. Thank you for your content.
My wife is a dog trainer, we have not seen any abuse. I would speak to a lawyer about a cease and desist letter and sue them for liable. We run a rescue now and we have trolls. We just block them. We do not engage them. We never had to put a dog down for behavior. We no longer work with aggressive dogs like we used to. My wife was attacked by an unpredictable dog. Resulting in nerve damage. We need more trainers such as yourself. I am so very sorry that your family is going thru this. 1:01:10
If anybody REALLY has an issue, watch this a few times. 1:00:58 It is incredibly sad it has come to this. The information on this channel is extensive, in depth, and absolutely saving the lives of dogs. You are a top notch father and husband. Big love from Kentucky.
🏆🏅💯 legit Dude is a positive example of a good human. I can't imagine feeling what he and his family felt while having to go through this defamation, bullying and mental torture at the hands of bad humans. I bet none of them will ever apologize.
I started watching your videos this year in preparation for getting my Cane Corso. I have never had a large dominant breed but was ready for the challenge and the reward that would later follow. I got my little girl recently and she is now 13 weeks old. I continue and will continue to watch your videos for guidance and support. I agree with all your methods and recognize that different dogs require different types of correction. I hate that this has happened to you, your family and your company. But know that you still have many of us that need your videos and knowledge. Thank you so much for everything! God bless you and your family!
Been a follower of your channel for a while now, & I have NEVER seen anything that has given me pause or made me ever think you would ever harm a dog. I appreciate the due diligence you take with each video. I am looking for a new family member and I have been watch all your videos about different breeds. I am so sorry you & your family are going through this!
As a first time dog owner, your videos and techniques got my shepard/husky mix to be the best dog I could have ever asked for. Off-leash freedom, the ability to have my dog in public anywhere with amazing obedience, and a great in house companion.
I recently got a male border collie/ German Shepard mix when he was around 12 weeks old. I raised him in my college apartment with nothing but these videos to watch. My parents and everyone else that knows him, all are impressed by how good of a dog he is. I can take him off leash, I can take him to Home Depot, Walmart. He can be in the car for hours. He’s around 8 months old now and isn’t even neutered yet follows my every command. He also plays frisbee and fetch like a pro. I really appreciate this guys videos and my dog would not be as well behaved without them.
I am no professional. I am just a regular Canadian citizen with a border collie puppy (8 months old now but got him at 10 weeks). and when seeking help online, I stumbled across your short videos. and they were very helpful. I was able to train Milo from the very beginning starting with potty training, then crate training, and right into when he showed his first sign of resource guarding. And like you said, a puppy's mind is just like a piece of plastic that can be molded. I put a stop to it early and I haven't seen a sign of it since. He is nothing but a sweet happy dog who loves his ball, but also has no problem giving it up when I say playtime is over. Your videos taught me how to put my dog into a proper down/submissive position when washing him or even just checking him for ticks or anything of the nature. and because I did it early on, he cooperates like a champ every time. He is still young, so I have work that has to be done with him, but if it wasn't for your guidance online, I wouldn't have been able to train my puppy so correctly and efficiently these last few months. I am not an American citizen, but if I was. you would be my first stop if I ever had problems with him. Thank you for your help and I would encourage anybody who's having trouble with their dog, (Be its aggression issues or simple crate training issues) to go to you and your team for help and guidance. Thanks for the help. 🤜
You have a very no punches pulled, direct attitude, which personally I love and find extremely entertaining. Let the snowflakes melt if they want to melt
Garret I love your training. You helped me become a better trainer then my local pet store. You made my walks enjoyable and having a large breed dog. All this BS is unbelievable. I stand behind you. Your techniques are unmatched. I will always continue to follow you and support you always.
Garret, I’ve been through countless TH-cam dog training channels. Yours is the only one I’ve consistently received practical info from that has had a dramatic effect on improving my dogs behaviour (working line kelpie). I hadn’t enjoyed a walk with him due to reactivity and pulling for a year, and once I followed your prong collar methods I saw an immediate change and my relationship with my boy is better than ever. I get disapproving comments from people but in reality, they have no idea what they are talking about. Keep doing your thing and thank you for all your help.
I rescued an GSD from my he local pound that had a bad case of fear aggression. No one wanted this dog, he was there for many months. Once I got him home, and started using your training he totally transformed. He’s well behaved confident and gets along with people and other animals. Working line dogs aren’t for everyone, but with your help this dog has a great life and a new purpose. Thanks, also I try to help others with dogs that have behavioral issues using the methods I’ve learned from your videos. So keep up the good work
Great videos, years ago Caesar was the only creator that was helpful in learning how to properly and effectively train the dogs I have had over the years but a while back I came across yours and so I really do have you and Caesar to thank for having great dogs. My most recent issue being bad leash manners on my 2yo boy I could not cure until I seen a video of you with a golden retriever that I thought was magic until I got your technique right, many thanks because this was the first dog that has ever hurt me physically by the pulling that he does not do anymore .
As someone with a disability you’ve actually given me hope that I too can train my future dogs and you’re the first trainer that’s actually done that for me, every video of yours that I watch I see how much you love the dogs that you train. Thank you for doing what you do, you and your family seem amazing. People are going to talk, keep doing you man
I'm 61 and also disabled (chronic pain from nerve damage and mobility issues) and I'm training a Malinois. Five months ago, I adopted Maxi, and at 14 months old she was completely untrained. Lol, you should see her now, we're starting training for her French Ring Brevet. You can do it!
Man I'm sorry to hear what you are dealing with. I recently started following your channel because I plan on getting an American bully and want him to be trained and your channel is honestly my favorite one especially for people who want big dogs like I do
Very good response. I am a new dog trainer and find your content very helpful. All dogs are different and you are saving their lives. Keep doing what you’re doing.
Punishment should match or slightly excede the transgression. Sometimes correcting an animal should be done as similarly as their own mother/species does. It works. When it comes to training an animal that could seriously harm you or kill you, you do what you have to do.
Garret! This was the most professional and powerful message on the internet. I have been watching your videos for over a year and I highly admire your hard work, knowledge, professionalism and super fun and likable personality.
I'm so very sorry you and your family are going through this. We see how much you love every dog you train .... EVERY ONE. You're a great person who has saved so many dogs and their owners. Keep your head up because you know your heart is in the right place. Praying for you all.
I truly appreciate the time you took to explain this dilema. Not because it needs it, whomever is critiquing your work, is just chasing views and leaching to your followers for relevance. But taking time to clarify shows what a class act. Also enjoyed the comedy… “this isn”t the real housewife’s of dog training” 😂😂
You are awesome! i bought a GSD a little over a year ago and i'm not going to socialize her. knowing this, i've watched your videos and applied many of your techniques. I'm a senior and couldn't allow her to overpower me at all ... even when playing. She's only as good as i've trained her and myself. thank you so much for all you do and share. we wouldn't have such a wonderful home life without you.
You’re a great trainer! I can only imagine what you’ve been through, but, honestly, do not apologize for anything. You’re doing a great job. God bless you.
I have a 1 1/2 year old Working Line German Shepard. I signed up for the “unleashed e-collar” course and followed the entire curriculum staring with my puppy at 9 weeks old. I had my puppy “Izzy” off leash trained in 5 weeks thanks to your course. A year and a 1/2 later she still comes with me pretty much everywhere. She comes to work with me daily, to Lowe’s, to any outside mall that allows pets, restaurants, and to all of my children’s sporting events. She off lease heals with zero distraction. She lives an incredible life not having to be chained 6 feet from me every second she is outdoors. I truly appreciate the knowledge, guidance, and overall understanding of how to turn my super high drive dog into a perfect addition to our family. Keep doing what you do. Maybe the idiot with the comments should take your course so he can understand how you feel about the animals you help have better, more free lives. Keep it up brother. Love what you do. Robert
Those are the types of people that would rather have a dog put down rather than firmly corrected. When a dog becomes a dangerous animal that's shown capable of doing harm there are few options. You're saving lives. Well done handling the haters. I had no doubt about your professionalism.
I just wanna say I watched this and loved the fact that you back your shit up. I have a 1 year old malinois x and will continue to watch you and learn from you. I have so much confidence in what you do. Thank you for sharing this and keep up the great work! ❤❤❤❤
My girlfriend was just bit by a dog on harness with a long leash while we were walking ours with a Prong. The first thing came to mind was your training advice and how the whole situation could have been avoided by using a prong. Stay strong brother 👊🏽
I'm so sorry, I hope she's okay. I was attacked at had my face ripped open by a husky at 8 yrs old - it was on a retractable lease, the owners were awful, and it was a dog I knew! Her attack could have 100% been avoided, and I hope she feels better soon
To be fair, I have nothing against balance training. In fact, I switched over from the positive school to balance training, but Milo was the age of three and he’s been attacked by dogs on prong collars, and Ecollars put Milo on a long line with a harness or a flat collar has never once approached a dog without my verbal command to do so, and he can recall off of them at any given time I say so so it’s also very up to the owner how much work they want to put in it’s not the tool it’s the owner
I typically don't leave comments on TH-cam, but I wanted to let you know how much your videos have meant to me in my dog training journey. I've gained an incredible amount of knowledge from your content. It's really frustrating to see the challenges you're facing due to individuals who don't understand your expertise. They wouldn't even consider training the dogs that you do. They'd rather choose to put dogs down than correct a dog... it's disgusting. You're making a significant difference in dogs' lives, and in my view, you're the best dog trainer out there. Your phrase 'the proof is in the pudding' rings true - your results speak for themselves. Keep up the fantastic work!
I have a 1,2 year old amstaff that went through a 7 month trainig with a local tranner and after that, I just ketp doing some basic exercises to keep her sharp. I found your channel a couple of days ago and man, I can tell you your method and tips have taken her training to another level specially with a cheap e collar I use. I have watched hundreds and hundreds of trainers here on TH-cam, but you sir are a class act. I know it is hard for both you and family to deal with such hate and stupid people pointing the finger at you. Keep on going. The amount of people supporting you and sending positive vibes will neutralize those stupid people. A fan/friend from Brazil!!!
Love you and your videos. Never questioned your integrity. Watched your whole expose of this situation and my respect for you grew even higher. Best wishes. K from Massachusetts
It's the age of the internet and the era we live in. Those who have owned and trained power breeds for years know that stern correction which is almost always needed is vastly different from abuse. Those who know... know. As an owner of a German Rottie, a Presa, and now a Corso, they have been some of the best canines/friends I've ever had.... But sweet talking and begging would have NEVER worked for them. Your work is not good.... It's GREAT and very informative. So, a simple thank you sir is all I have to say. Be and stay well.
Stay strong brother. From the UK, I watch all your videos and you've helped me massively with my Dobermann. You are truly an amazing, honest and one of the most genuine dog lover/ trainers out there. I wish peace for you and your family and I hope your wife gets to a place where she can relax and find some peace. Cannot thank you enough for everything you've done for all of dog owners, around the world. Collectively, we offer you our love and support, my brother from another mother.
Well done for doing this. Wasn’t needed imho but cudos for doing it. I myself am currently trying train our 11 week old Alaskan shepherd. Your videos are an inspiration to me and I Thankyou for posting what you do. Out of the 1000’s of online dog trainers you are the only one I take my advice from. Again, thanks for what you do. John from Glasgow Scotland.
My wife and I found your channel and training videos just over a year ago and we binged them together prepping for our East German working like GS and we are so grateful for all of the help they’ve been! Not only did it help prep us for a working line but also helped clean up issues with our golden retriever. I remember watching the original video that was obviously doctored and being amazed in the change that came from a single session. You save dogs lives and anyone with half a brain and willing to watch more than a 5 second clip can see your passion for dog training and love for the animals. Praying over your family and your business. Keep up the good work!
I'm sorry for what you and your family are going through. Your videos have been very helpful and encouraging to me over the past year with our new German Shepherd (and later we learned 1/4 husky) pup. I hope you're all able to put your minds at ease, and put this behind you as soon as possible.
I am completely in awe. I try not to get into social media and give my time or attention to the Internet or media because of people like the ones that had the nerve to accuse you of this. Put your family in danger by putting your personal information out there as well as putting your family at risk by trying to get likes by trashing your amazing heartful business that supports your family. I wanted to just take the time to say THANK YOU!!! I commend you and genuinely appreciate people like you. You're an amazing man, father, husband, trainer, and humanitarian, and dog lover. You NEED to keep doing what you're doing. PLEASE DON'T CHANGE. You are saving canine and human lives. Please keep going for not only you, your family, the canines and owners of the world, but even for the ignorant people out there because they only show how much more we need people like you!! I absolutely love your content, the knowledge you share, and the beautiful canines you help. Keep that beautiful heart and love alive. Thankyou for being you!!! Keep it coming! Some people just are so full of hate, aggression, and pain that they truly will never understand what realness and love is. So many people feel the need to hate and destroy. There is so much cruelty in the world, I really don't understand why people feel the need to create more or inexcusably attack someone who has done nothing but try to spread good into the world. But we have to just keep feeding love and knowledge out to the world. Three things I think everyone should live by and with, love, knowledge, honor. Bless you, your family, your team and business, and all the beautiful canines you have helped. Thankyou for spreading your knowledge, experiences, compassion, and love with the world. Never let anyone stop you from being you and from wanting to live the way we all should...with love, knowledge, honor, compassion, morals, and a pure heart. Thankyou again!
Well said! It’s a tragedy of our social media world that this even happened. In 1994 I trained my first standard poodle with a prong collar, and in 2010 I trained my second standard with a prong. I learned from Cesar Milan how to do it properly. Both were 6 months old when we started and both were super excited when I put it on because it meant training and fun. They both developed into secure, loving, well trained, and balanced dogs for 14 years. I very much appreciate all the important info that Garrett provides in his videos and agree completely with his training philosophy. Thank you so much and cheers from 🇨🇦.
I am so sorry that you’re going through all of this. You have so many people who look up to you and respect you. I know I would have been lost without all your help and boundless information. I will keep you and your family in my thoughts.
Sir, The folks tuning into your channel are avid dog lovers who want to have properly trained companions. With that said… who ever that guy is can absolutely, “Fluff Off!” I’ll be staying right here to learn how to be a more responsible dog owner. Sorry for your troubles and stay above the fray my friend. We are with you!
I absolutely love and respect the work that you do. Every time I read in the news a dog had to be put down after biting a kid or a postman it makes me sad, with the proper training that dog wouldn't have leashed out and would still be alive. You're giving aggressive dogs a second chance at the risk of your own safety! On top of that, you're also publishing videos online showing your methods, teaching others around the world how to better communicate with their dogs.
Hello! My husband and I love your videos. We have been watching them ever since we got our 2 GSD’s 2 years ago. The videos have helped us deal with food and resource aggression. We appreciate the time you take to teach us these things. We can tell you have integrity of character. You are doing a great job- keep up the good work!
We have watched almost every video you have ever put out and love them all. I have met a lot of men, most don’t have the integrity and character that you have. Your transparency has helped my family tremendously with my 2 female shepherds thank you so much. My wife and I can’t wait for your new content!!
I ended up here researching GSD's as I am ready to bring one into my life again after many years. I would like to say, good on you for doing this video, extremely well thought out, I don't see anything on your channel except success in working with some very difficult cases. The hard to accept reality for a lot of people is how these extreme cases need to be handled, you have some amazing results and saved these dogs lives, and that is what counts. I'm glad I found your channel, a lot of really helpful videos, all the best to you and your business.
Off topic if you know about GSD and educated yourself I would say congrats 🎉! Cause they are the best breed ever.. just be prepared for the shedding 😂🎉 we call ours tinsel .. it's every where.. 😂
@@roxymustafa6382 thanks for the tip, my last dog was actually a GSD x Doberman, mostly GSD, the one thing I remember was his hair was everywhere!! I say I'm ready, but we'll see!!
Keep up the great work! Your vids have helped us a lot with our lab! It is refreshing to find anything online that is real no nonsense content and that is exactly what this channel provides. love it! Thank you!
This is ridiculous. I'm sorry for you and your wife and kids. Im sorry you are being dragged and hurt by this. Ppl are so stupid. I appreciate all that you have shown and taught us. I have learned so so much from you - and im angry at the haters... the jealousy. I don't believe for a moment you are abusive. I'm glad you made this video and called these ppl out. Stay strong. The truth will shine.
Sending you and your family love...I've just recently found your videos... I see what you do...and why....and the results are plain to see as is your love and care for the dogs you work with..be blessed
Thank you for your contribution, you inspire me to get my first dog and to be a loving leader. Learn so much this last month. Hope everything is going better. Much love from Puerto Rico. Keep it up.
Wow! The Belgian (Sarge) who was filled with fear until you went in and turned his world around into a happy, safe and peaceful place made me literally tear up. I absolutely admire what you are doing for these dogs and their families. You take dogs who most trainers would never work with and you change their world for the better. Amazing work. Im sorry to hear you have been experiencing such hate and terrible accusations. It is so sad to hear how it is affecting your wife, as well 😢 I think you shut the “haters” down with this video because wow you are wonderful at what you do, you wholeheartedly care for dogs and are helping dogs live better lives. Keep it up!! 🙏👍🤗
Praying for your family's comfort and justice for the situation! I don't have a dog anymore at the moment, but you've inspired me and shown me what a dog can truly be. As a self-proclaimed cat person, my goal in life to be a K9 officer. You've demonstrated over and over how amazing dogs can be. Please keep doing what you are doing. You mean so much more to this community
First time seeing you or a video of yours. I'm only 7 minutes in and I have to say I am so sorry for what is being done to you, your family and team. People on social media can destroy lives and that is 100% not ok. I hope they can be sued. The only way to stop these people is there has to be consequences for their actions. Again sorry for what you are going through. I was a teacher and have stopped due to a student claiming I kicked her. Luckily many other students were there and wrote affidavits saying it never happened but the hell I went through was awful. It hurts to be accused of something especially because we do what we do BECAUSE we care so much. 😢😢😢❤
3 years ago I rescued 2 east German working line German shepherds. Because of your videos and training advice, I have two wonderful obedient loving dogs. Thank you sir.
The fact that people actually believe that Garret could hurt a dog like that is just sickening. Over all the time I've spent watching your content, never have I thought for even a second that you didn’t know what you were doing. In fact, I've learned more from you than I ever thought I would!! I really hope, for your sake and your family's, that this whole thing subsides and gets dealt with soon. Some people, man... some people just upset me to my core.
As someone who is about to start her dog training career, I learn so much from you, not only methods, also the way you put your words and yourself out there Someone else would probably address this matter in a very different way But you did it so well, so thoughtfully, so wisely. So inspiring!
@@SighDown my dog had aggression problems and I solved it just as fast as garret did WITHOUT forcing my boy on the ground and strangling him so it’s really not necessary
Lol You cannot be a dog trainer. You are very clearly a dog yourself. What are you gonna teach them, "If you shred the toilet paper, make these eyes, like this 🥺"
@@levihan1155you need an e collar and prong collar for yourself because you need serious training. If you disagree with this then go away and disappear
Omgosh, you broke my heart! I hope all this has passed for you and your beautiful family! I watch all you videos and I truly appreciate you for sharing your techniques! Your methods are on point with my dog trainer! After adopting xl American bully puppy, my husband and I found an abandoned blind pit bull in one of our rental houses! I couldn’t find a rescue that had room and I refused to take him to the pound! So he has now joined my family with my 4 other dogs him being number 5! He had never even been on a leash! He was in a very small cage! So now we are training two dogs separately! I have not let them be together yet! It’s been almost 3 months! It’s been a long process! I love to see your videos! They help me learn in so many ways! I got caught up in a position I wasn’t ready for! So the help that you give is so appreciated
I appreciate you and all your training videos. I have had much success with my dog using your techniques. Thank you! Keep doing your work, you are changing so many lives of owners and dogs ❤
I have seen many of your TH-cam films. I consider you to be one of the top dog trainers out there. You are an inspiration to me and many others. Your professionalism can't be tarnished by internet bullies.This film is a solid defence and puts right what really happened. I support you!
You are one of the best ive seen. Coming from a training background myself, i have never seen someone as skilled as you are. You must be doing something good if they are trying to ruin you. Keep going and rise above this. Anyone who knows about training dogs knows you are not into animal cruelty. Thank you for your knowledge
I found your videos about a month ago. I didn’t know much about proper training, but your videos have shown me a fascinating world of how to properly care for my animals.
100% Respect Garret, Stay strong for your family your team and all the people and dogs you are helping . Humanity is so much better when it has someone likes of you in this world. I have PTSD and know how horrible people can be. Peace Love Respect
I own two Cane Corso's and you've been a tremendous help with your coaching and techniques. It's obvious someone is jealous of your success and blessings. Keep pumping out content because the world needs you and lots of homes are happier because of you. Appreciate all you do and wishing you amazing health, guidance and blessings for your team and family!!
Just wanted to take a moment and thank ALL of you for the amazing out pouring of support from literally across the globe. It's incredible and my family and I are humbled and speechless. We did not know what to expect when putting this type of video out there. Nothing about this experience has been pleasant. Making this video and putting it out there I struggled with for days on what was the right thing to do. I was told by many to file a lawsuit, I was told by others that this will just blow over. But in my heart, whether it was right or wrong, I couldn't just sit there and let these individuals continue to tarnish my reputation over a lie. It all but killed me to stay quiet for as long as I have trying to "do the right thing" and not engage in BS. But it comes to a point that if you poke a bear long enough it's going to move. So whether posting this video was the right or wrong thing to do only time will tell but it felt like the right thing despite being very difficult to do. It's not fun being on trial and having to defend yourself in a public forum. It's even harder to do it and stay composed. But enough about me. This isn't about me anymore. It's always been about my family, my business and my customers. But, the best thing to come out of this whole ordeal is the response from all of you from everywhere and all walks of life. I am absolutely humbled by the response and never in my wildest dreams did I imagine so many of you to have so many unbelievably nice things to say. Like I said, I never did this for views. I was embarrassed to even have to film something like this. But with my wife and team by my side, they told me they believed in me and to do what I felt was the right thing to do. Again, it's so difficult to figure out what is the right thing to do in such a strange and fabricated situation as this that came out of left field and caught me completely off guard. I don't wish this BS on anyone. Again, the best thing that came out of it was each and every one of you who reached out publicly and privately to offer your love and support. It's very difficult for me to even comprehend what I did to deserve even 1% of the love and support I have received. I am truly humbled and honored to receive every single comment. My cup is completely overflowing and I just can't even put into words how appreciative I am and how much of a roller coaster ride it has been. All I can say is I have grown a lot from this experience and most importantly realize even more so how much more work I need to put in to even begin to deserve the level of love and support we have received. It's unbelievable and I want to keep pushing ahead to try to live up to your expectations of me. It's a challenging task no doubt but I will try my best. It's a very tall order but you all deserve everything I can give and more. I am forever grateful. Thank you so much. I am truly honored and blessed by your support. 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️🫡🫡🫡🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
Thank you for all the knowledge you give us. From what I have seen of you, you are an excellent human being and an excellent dog trainer. Do not allow the poisonous and ill-intentioned words of others to hurt you, you have created a beautiful family and your successful company.
As we say in Mexico, when the dogs bark, It is because we are moving forward 😉 I have also seen the smear campaign against Augusto (Dog Daddy) and I can clearly see, that both smear campaigns stem from envy 🤷🏻♀️ that should make you guys proud of your hard work 💖🐶 Your human and canine clients need you.
You are an excellent trainer!!
Stay strong. I love your videos. Continue what you're doing and ignore the haters. Some people have no better things to do
You are a excellent trainer and have helped many with your videos.
Hopefully your wife and family are okay so sorry you have to deal with this❤
FUCK the haters! Karma is a bitch and I hope they find that out. Keep up the unbelievable work and continue to change peoples/dogs lives!
This is the most professional and appropriate response to social media bullying I have ever seen. Well done sir!!!

Sir I am a former US Marine who's handled and trained dogs over thirty years, I watch your videos and I believe you know EXACTLY what your doing. I have had to separate game line pit bulls before and I have had more than a few stitches myself all of which were my fault trying to get dogs apart when others didn't raise them right or read the cues . I applaud you. There is a big difference between pets and working line/game line dogs. You are a great trainer
Omgg..I got my first pair of Stitches from breaking up a dog fight while the owner took his sweet time to get his dog. I walked away with a hole in my arm
I had a dog park friend with a highly reactive (to having boys sniff her butt) Pitbull. He used his water bottle as an amygdala disruptor: he squirted water on the back of her head and gave a strong verbal correction. Then leashed her - within 2 weeks Ruby was more tolerant and the aggression was gone. A male would sniff her butt - she'd give a normal female 'get lost' growl then immediately look at her owner for approval. 😊 ever since, I've kept a tiny spray bottle in my bag & it's brilliant to distract fighting dogs, no one gets bloodied 😊
Get out of dealing with Game dogs. It's idiotic

I’ve watched practically every video Garrett has produced including the one in question, and there’s NO ONE I’d rather have training my dog than this guy…
Thank you Terry
Same here I’ll rather bring my dogs to Garret I have watch every video to and talk to my wife about people are so ignorant about dog Behavior watch wolf correcting another wolf aren’t gentle but whatever people are so selfish and jealous I’ll trust trainer have been working with dogs for years because they know better and the ways dogs will respond keep up
Garrett I like your videos don’t listen to this people man
He is one of the vew i would trust blindly with the training of my dog.
If i would be given the chance to let him train my very young cane corso i definitely would, without a doubt!
@AmericanStandardK9 I totally agree. There is nothing I would have done differently! I seen to many videos you put out that would make me think otherwise! I learn all the time to be a better trainer for my own dogs! Don't stop being you! Those dogs and their people need you!
I usually do not subscribe to TH-camrs (just a choice), but I subscribed to your channel as a vote of confidence in you. Thank you for saving that dog's life
I hate social media. People are so quick to jump on a bandwagon. It is seriously out of control.
I love watching your videos , and the insight you give is so informative. Please continue doing what you do and I hope you and your family are getting back to normal from all of this. Positive vibes for your wife’s healing as well.
I'm two months late seeing this video, I just finished watching it. It is so professional and totally open and clear. I am so sorry and hurt that there are people who feel the need to threaten, degrade and slander others. Especially without the lack of knowledge and proof. I send you strength and support. Keep doing your job. 🐶🐾
The Guide elaborates on the techniques used on the show. The examples given in the th-cam.com/users/postUgkxECnmSvBSv_NGWx4_ChD73pF3NYZwI2F3 are helpful and some of the techniques suggested very useful. One such technique/tool suggested was the lure stick to encourage a small dog to keep up with the heel command. I have a small dog who lags behind smelling any and everything and find it hard to keep bending over while walking to his level. The lure stick is great also for another dogs focus and sprinting at anything that catches her eye. The stories about different dogs, their different temperaments, have been helpful, especially Lulu's: After reading about Lulu's challenges I felt relief concerning one of my rescues that I have had for 10 years. Over many years I have checked out many training books from the library, watched different shows, DVDS, bought training books, taken lessons and this book is the best by far! Kindness, patience and perseverance works.

You and Tom Davis are just about the only trainers I see on social media that will ACTUALLY fix a truly aggressive dog. Kudos to you both. You have my full support in this difficult time.
Also add Garett's good friend Dog Daddy to that list. Poor kid has been getting alot of hate and death threats aswell.

I work at a doggy daycare and alot of your training tips have helped us break up fights before they even happen. Watching dog body language and correcting behavior appropriately. Remote collars are regularly used in our facility unless medical issues or parents disapproval. Most dogs who need an E/Remote collar will behave just fine as soon as that collar is on. They also sit still for us while we put it on.
breaking up fights is a different situation than "teaching"
@@shinethesky "break up fights BEFORE, they happen"
We as the doggy day care staff are not responsible for training dogs. But we can at least arm ourselves with the knowledge to protect not only ourselves but the other dogs. We are not with the dog daily throughout the day. The parents are the ones that fail the dog by not training them and sadly 60% of them just think its abusive and controlling to just train the dog. We are not a training facility.
@@yourlocalnormy3596so funny, I have an e-collar for my small dog for excessive barking. I have never used anything but the beep but the moment it gets put on he never barks.
Perfect example of reading into something what they want to criticize. Your post was very clear and polite and correct I might add.
BTW a more than few of the people take their knottheads to daycare hoping you can teach manners to their brat. ;

Stay strong. That's right.
My poor Charlie was an overly aggressive German Shepard mix. I am an elderly woman and wasn’t able to control him so for nearly 8 years he had to stay cooped up in my apartment 24/7 and use puppy pads for the bathroom. Thanks to Garrett’s videos my grandson was able to train my Charlie and he now gets almost nightly walks! Thanks G

Ohhhh Karen, I’m so happy to hear about sweet Charlie! 😭♥️ that’s no life for a dog so I loooove that these trainings have helped as much as they have 🥺 and good on you and your grandson for making the change happen!!
Also you don’t coop up a gsd mix for 8 years. Not what you do to be a good owner! Should’ve taken him somewhere ages ago!
@@amandawopaclog7615 Shame on you for your words here. People do the best they can with what they have. Would you have rather the dog gone to a shelter and be put down because she couldn't handle him outside? The dog was fed and cared for to her best ability and when she learned she could do better she got help and made it happen. Shaming people for their past when they share their story only shows you have pathetic character. Go look at yourself in the mirror, Amanda. You're certainly not perfect.
Watching the pain and stress that you and your family had to deal with is utterly infuriating and the fact that Facebook or TH-cam wont protect their users is just unacceptable. I wish you and your family all the best, you did the right thing bringing this up. Stay strong man
i deleted facebook , and im baffled that youtube wont protect their creators
The guy in the video wonder why he is doing this to what he intends to achieve. I hope you suit him and shut him down. Looks like a loser too.
As a BLUE FAMILY, I was surprised to find out that you as well were part of the Law Enforcement family. I should have known better as you DID remind me of one of my LT's. Listening to your response to the rude, idiotic, ungrateful people that dared to complain about your training methods, especially reference Belgian Malinois being confused with GSD on the job he gives away his ignorance. Who knows why he got a Belgian in the first place. People that don't research about the dog they either rescue or buy shouldn't be allowed to get a dog. Cats are more their speed. Keep up the great work LT🚔🚓🐾🦴🐕🦺

Hahahaha okaaay
Retired PD K-9 officer and you handled that *exactly* as it should be. If a dog is trying to be dominate, you have to put them in a submissive position and leave them there until they are calm, no matter how long it takes. I have scars on my hands from one of my Malinuts and putting him in a submissive position was the only way to stop him from getting over excited and biting me. You're a great trainer and I love how you handled this!
I'm sure that this haters was from the UK because here some idiot from government banned use prong collar and e collar haha only use slipped leash what it's totally rubbish and can make more harm like a good,I don't care about this and I live in UK and I use before prong collar now I stop because my dog don't need anymore I only use e collar and I have a perfect dog thanks to garret
I am former U.S. Military and soon to be retired law enforcement officer. I didn’t think the correction on the second dog was awful and the first one with the swing method was genius!

That correction was no different than any correction I have ever seen you give on other dogs. It didn't even look that bad. Garrett, I love your videos. You and the other balanced dog trainers getting hate have helped me with my dog. Keep it up!
They are only fear mongering
I had to watch it twice because I thought I missed something.
Wow Sarge’s transformation is incredible, it almost makes me teary. I work a lot with my dog on reactivity and the goal is to be able to get him to the state Sarge got to where he doesn’t feel on edge constantly. You gave that dog his life back and now he can be carefree and relaxed! that’s amazing
You have saved the lives of thousands of dogs. If it wasn’t for your videos my Cane Corso wouldn’t have a perfect recall, I also wouldn’t have the knowledge about bloat and all the other important knowledge to raise my corso. You are an amazing trainer and person and I would never question that.Keep doing what you do.
Also props to your wife, she once liked my comments when I was backing you up which shows she cares very much about what you do.
Thank you sir for doing what you do. I'm 65 with my first dog, a standard Goldendoodle. Was very much feeling like I was in over my head and wondering what I'd got myself into. We went through two training classes starting at 8 weeks (8 months old yesterday). I failed miserably. Then I came across some of your videos and quickly subscribed. You have taught me how to be better at training and how to keep on improving. You have been the one who has kept this wonderful dog in my life! Your methods and advice, your caring and loving nature have made this possible for us. Thank You! Thank You! Thank you!
I just watched this in December. You handled this just right. I've gotten so I don't even pay attention to social media anymore. You can't do that as a businessman, and you reacted perfectly.
Thanks for your videos. It's helped so much with my half husky "designer dog."
Just by watching your TH-cam videos, I change my dogs life, especially in her role in my life, so many times I was going to give her away but with your help and guidance, just by watching your educational videos, saved my dogs life, these people who are attacking you are deplorable, they don’t know what they’re talking about and my prayers go out to you, you have my family support, we will pray for you.
100%! He has helped us out so much!
Us as well. Thanks to this channel my cane corso and I are living our best lives!
Thank you so very much for your support. And so happy we were able to help you with your dog.
i watch alot of dog training vids for my husky! guy at the store told me to use the leach to hit my dog for going after garbage on the ground!
ya you can guess what i did?!
@@jugaloking69dope58😮😮
I figure you probably receive many of these comments, but to add onto that pile... You are a great dog trainer and dog owner teacher. My wife and I bought the puppy course of yours for our golden and we get literally, LITERALLY, 100+ compliments in the form of "you are so lucky" despite me spending 4-5 hours a day using YOUR techniques and listening to YOUR teachings. I have never owned a dog before and suddenly I guess I got "lucky" with my first dog(even though no one saw the countless hours of training and dealing with unlimited energy golden)... the only thing I got lucky with is finding your videos. This new modern world has watered down discipline and standards. Not to get to political, there are standards that we need to uphold in life and sometimes they aren't fun to do or to create, and the same for our animals. That is exactly what you teach. Thank you for this and I will pray for you and your family.
Wow thank you for the kind words. I don't always get to read every comment but I read this one. So happy you have found success in our training. Nothing makes me happier. Thank you for your support!
@@AmericanStandardK9just because I know you'll see this. We train in some slightly different ways but I've learned some stuff from you myself. But a few helpful methods from you and more normal methods regularly get me compliments on how well behaved my dogs are. I know you'd never abuse an animal.
@@bmxriderforlife1234he wont, shut up 😂😂😂
Anyone who can't tell the difference between a Belgian Malinois and a German Shepherd shepherd isn't worth my time.
LOL
I am a lay person trying to learn as much as I can to raise a balanced dog. You have helped me with a couple of issues I was having. I hope your business continues to flourish. Balanced dog training is the best approach. You show that. Good luck.
Garret Wing is AMAZING! His methods are 100% effective and humane. I’ve followed him for a year, spoken with him 1:1 a few times and he’s legit AF. He LOVES dogs and their owners. He honestly wants to help anyone who has ANY kind of issue with their dogs. He is the most respectable balanced trainer I’ve encountered. He’s the real deal. Nothing but respect for him.
🙏🙏🙏
@@AmericanStandardK9 I bet ZachGeorge is going crazy.
8:22 This is jealousy and a hater coming after u and shame on them! I'm watching your video now and like u said clout and views is what this bullshit is about. I love dogs more than ppl! I always have a golden this one Dug I had to train with an E-collar he only need the vibrations and he learned. I can tell on your videos and shorts U are a kind man with a sweet family & WOULD NEVER ABUSE A DOG! You're very very smart with your knowledge of dogs. If you weren't u wouldn't have Your thriving business and been able to retire early. I had NO! Idea this was happening to you and your family but it's disgusting to single you out like this bc of they're jealous of what have become. God bless you and your family and I hope this ends soon & well for you ❤ I've never have written a comment on anything like this before but your video has me so pissed that there's someone doing this to you and it's going public. May God protect you good ppl and may the EVIL 😈 haters get a good dose of karma and then some!! And leave the talented honest gentleman alone! ❤
@@skyler3996 😂I can hear his head exploding from here.
Some ppl seem not to understand that there are cases where a dog needs to be corrected. This GSD with bite history would have most likely put down if the owner and Garret didn't decide to work it out. He's probably too honest to show the other side. Many trainer would hide it as ppl don't understand
As a semi-retired professional dog trainer, with K9, balanced training experience , certified ACO, and vet tech, I can totally relate! Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time. Please, don’t let ignorant people stop you from doing good work and really helping dogs that would otherwise have to be put down . Remember, we can’t save them all, including some people! ❤ 🐶
Do you mind telling me what you think about prong collars on sensitive more delicate dogs? My collie needs correction for minor issues and I don't want to hurt him.
@@sharroon7574you may get a pinch collar instead. Similar to a prong but plastic. When we started training my Irish Setter would freak out if you corrected with a prong collar, but was perfectly fine with the pinch. 2 years later she is a fantastic service dog with no behavior issues.
@@sharroon7574only thing that would make them "delicate" is health issues. No health issues? Good to go
@jordancrowe87 thanks!
@@sharroon7574 The right prong collar, sized for the dog, doesn't hurt when it's used properly.
We need people like you out there teaching us methods to train dogs that you have perfected over the years. Without the likes of you and others I wouldnt have such a well trained and well behaved dog. For this you will always have my support
Your response is incredible. How frustrating you’ve had to defend yourself like this. I’m sorry for what you, your family and your employees have had to go through.
I have spent my life working with horses. Many that were dangerous at times. I refuse to be hurt by any animal so if a swift correction is needed, I will do that. I now have a GSD (4.5 months old) and have been doing a lot of research including watching training videos. Thank you for your content.
My wife is a dog trainer, we have not seen any abuse. I would speak to a lawyer about a cease and desist letter and sue them for liable. We run a rescue now and we have trolls. We just block them. We do not engage them. We never had to put a dog down for behavior. We no longer work with aggressive dogs like we used to. My wife was attacked by an unpredictable dog. Resulting in nerve damage. We need more trainers such as yourself. I am so very sorry that your family is going thru this. 1:01:10
If anybody REALLY has an issue, watch this a few times. 1:00:58 It is incredibly sad it has come to this.
The information on this channel is extensive, in depth, and absolutely saving the lives of dogs. You are a top notch father and husband. Big love from Kentucky.

Dude is a positive example of a good human. I can't imagine feeling what he and his family felt while having to go through this defamation, bullying and mental torture at the hands of bad humans.
I bet none of them will ever apologize.
Wrong !!

@@leonardoD81 Haha! I agree.
I started watching your videos this year in preparation for getting my Cane Corso. I have never had a large dominant breed but was ready for the challenge and the reward that would later follow.
I got my little girl recently and she is now 13 weeks old. I continue and will continue to watch your videos for guidance and support. I agree with all your methods and recognize that different dogs require different types of correction.
I hate that this has happened to you, your family and your company. But know that you still have many of us that need your videos and knowledge.
Thank you so much for everything! God bless you and your family!
Been a follower of your channel for a while now, & I have NEVER seen anything that has given me pause or made me ever think you would ever harm a dog. I appreciate the due diligence you take with each video. I am looking for a new family member and I have been watch all your videos about different breeds. I am so sorry you & your family are going through this!
As a first time dog owner, your videos and techniques got my shepard/husky mix to be the best dog I could have ever asked for. Off-leash freedom, the ability to have my dog in public anywhere with amazing obedience, and a great in house companion.
I recently got a male border collie/ German Shepard mix when he was around 12 weeks old. I raised him in my college apartment with nothing but these videos to watch. My parents and everyone else that knows him, all are impressed by how good of a dog he is. I can take him off leash, I can take him to Home Depot, Walmart. He can be in the car for hours. He’s around 8 months old now and isn’t even neutered yet follows my every command. He also plays frisbee and fetch like a pro. I really appreciate this guys videos and my dog would not be as well behaved without them.
We stand with you brother.
Thank you. I really appreciate all the support. Means the world to me and my family. It's been pretty rough these last few days.
@@AmericanStandardK9I well pray for you.
I am no professional. I am just a regular Canadian citizen with a border collie puppy (8 months old now but got him at 10 weeks). and when seeking help online, I stumbled across your short videos. and they were very helpful. I was able to train Milo from the very beginning starting with potty training, then crate training, and right into when he showed his first sign of resource guarding. And like you said, a puppy's mind is just like a piece of plastic that can be molded. I put a stop to it early and I haven't seen a sign of it since. He is nothing but a sweet happy dog who loves his ball, but also has no problem giving it up when I say playtime is over. Your videos taught me how to put my dog into a proper down/submissive position when washing him or even just checking him for ticks or anything of the nature. and because I did it early on, he cooperates like a champ every time. He is still young, so I have work that has to be done with him, but if it wasn't for your guidance online, I wouldn't have been able to train my puppy so correctly and efficiently these last few months. I am not an American citizen, but if I was. you would be my first stop if I ever had problems with him. Thank you for your help and I would encourage anybody who's having trouble with their dog, (Be its aggression issues or simple crate training issues) to go to you and your team for help and guidance. Thanks for the help. 🤜
Wow that’s crazy you went through this. All your dogs seems healthy and happy. Hope things got better for you ❤️
Keep doing you man. Jealousy will bring out the worst in people. When you’re on top of the mountain, others just wanna see you fall.
Jealousy is ugly
You have a very no punches pulled, direct attitude, which personally I love and find extremely entertaining. Let the snowflakes melt if they want to melt
Exactly and that's what the world needs, truth! Love how Garrett is that with no holds barred
You need to contact an attorney and sue this person for slander and libel. What they did is inexcusable!
This man and his team are the utmost professionals in dog training. You have our endless support.
Garret I love your training. You helped me become a better trainer then my local pet store. You made my walks enjoyable and having a large breed dog. All this BS is unbelievable. I stand behind you. Your techniques are unmatched. I will always continue to follow you and support you always.
Garret, I’ve been through countless TH-cam dog training channels. Yours is the only one I’ve consistently received practical info from that has had a dramatic effect on improving my dogs behaviour (working line kelpie).
I hadn’t enjoyed a walk with him due to reactivity and pulling for a year, and once I followed your prong collar methods I saw an immediate change and my relationship with my boy is better than ever.
I get disapproving comments from people but in reality, they have no idea what they are talking about.
Keep doing your thing and thank you for all your help.
I agree
I rescued an GSD from my he local pound that had a bad case of fear aggression. No one wanted this dog, he was there for many months. Once I got him home, and started using your training he totally transformed. He’s well behaved confident and gets along with people and other animals. Working line dogs aren’t for everyone, but with your help this dog has a great life and a new purpose. Thanks, also I try to help others with dogs that have behavioral issues using the methods I’ve learned from your videos. So keep up the good work
Great videos, years ago Caesar was the only creator that was helpful in learning how to properly and effectively train the dogs I have had over the years but a while back I came across yours and so I really do have you and Caesar to thank for having great dogs. My most recent issue being bad leash manners on my 2yo boy I could not cure until I seen a video of you with a golden retriever that I thought was magic until I got your technique right, many thanks because this was the first dog that has ever hurt me physically by the pulling that he does not do anymore .
This is heavy, thank you for taking things like this seriously and for explaining and educating on the truth 🩵💙🧡
As someone with a disability you’ve actually given me hope that I too can train my future dogs and you’re the first trainer that’s actually done that for me, every video of yours that I watch I see how much you love the dogs that you train. Thank you for doing what you do, you and your family seem amazing. People are going to talk, keep doing you man
I'm 61 and also disabled (chronic pain from nerve damage and mobility issues) and I'm training a Malinois. Five months ago, I adopted Maxi, and at 14 months old she was completely untrained. Lol, you should see her now, we're starting training for her French Ring Brevet. You can do it!
Man I'm sorry to hear what you are dealing with. I recently started following your channel because I plan on getting an American bully and want him to be trained and your channel is honestly my favorite one especially for people who want big dogs like I do
Very good response. I am a new dog trainer and find your content very helpful. All dogs are different and you are saving their lives. Keep doing what you’re doing.
Punishment should match or slightly excede the transgression. Sometimes correcting an animal should be done as similarly as their own mother/species does. It works.
When it comes to training an animal that could seriously harm you or kill you, you do what you have to do.
Exactly this!!
Garret! This was the most professional and powerful message on the internet. I have been watching your videos for over a year and I highly admire your hard work, knowledge, professionalism and super fun and likable personality.
I'm so very sorry you and your family are going through this. We see how much you love every dog you train .... EVERY ONE. You're a great person who has saved so many dogs and their owners. Keep your head up because you know your heart is in the right place. Praying for you all.
Your work is selfless and much appreciated sir! You’re an amazing influence and I appreciate what you’re doing
I truly appreciate the time you took to explain this dilema. Not because it needs it, whomever is critiquing your work, is just chasing views and leaching to your followers for relevance. But taking time to clarify shows what a class act. Also enjoyed the comedy… “this isn”t the real housewife’s of dog training” 😂😂
I think the President’s dog needs your help before another agent gets bitten.
You are awesome! i bought a GSD a little over a year ago and i'm not going to socialize her. knowing this, i've watched your videos and applied many of your techniques. I'm a senior and couldn't allow her to overpower me at all ... even when playing. She's only as good as i've trained her and myself. thank you so much for all you do and share. we wouldn't have such a wonderful home life without you.
You’re a great trainer! I can only imagine what you’ve been through, but, honestly, do not apologize for anything. You’re doing a great job. God bless you.
I have a 1 1/2 year old Working Line German Shepard. I signed up for the “unleashed e-collar” course and followed the entire curriculum staring with my puppy at 9 weeks old. I had my puppy “Izzy” off leash trained in 5 weeks thanks to your course. A year and a 1/2 later she still comes with me pretty much everywhere. She comes to work with me daily, to Lowe’s, to any outside mall that allows pets, restaurants, and to all of my children’s sporting events. She off lease heals with zero distraction. She lives an incredible life not having to be chained 6 feet from me every second she is outdoors. I truly appreciate the knowledge, guidance, and overall understanding of how to turn my super high drive dog into a perfect addition to our family. Keep doing what you do. Maybe the idiot with the comments should take your course so he can understand how you feel about the animals you help have better, more free lives. Keep it up brother. Love what you do.
Robert
Those are the types of people that would rather have a dog put down rather than firmly corrected. When a dog becomes a dangerous animal that's shown capable of doing harm there are few options. You're saving lives. Well done handling the haters. I had no doubt about your professionalism.
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯 they take the lazy route. “Dog isn’t savable. Put it down.” *FK THOSE PEOPLE!!* He does the work and instead _fixes the problem._
People always comment to put my reactive dog down and that isn't an option. You're so right.
Just caught this video. Garrett , my prayers are with you and your family. Keep On Keeping On !! We believe in you guys !!
I just wanna say I watched this and loved the fact that you back your shit up. I have a 1 year old malinois x and will continue to watch you and learn from you. I have so much confidence in what you do. Thank you for sharing this and keep up the great work! ❤❤❤❤
My girlfriend was just bit by a dog on harness with a long leash while we were walking ours with a Prong. The first thing came to mind was your training advice and how the whole situation could have been avoided by using a prong. Stay strong brother 👊🏽
I'm so sorry, I hope she's okay. I was attacked at had my face ripped open by a husky at 8 yrs old - it was on a retractable lease, the owners were awful, and it was a dog I knew! Her attack could have 100% been avoided, and I hope she feels better soon
To be fair, I have nothing against balance training. In fact, I switched over from the positive school to balance training, but Milo was the age of three and he’s been attacked by dogs on prong collars, and Ecollars put Milo on a long line with a harness or a flat collar has never once approached a dog without my verbal command to do so, and he can recall off of them at any given time I say so so it’s also very up to the owner how much work they want to put in it’s not the tool it’s the owner
I typically don't leave comments on TH-cam, but I wanted to let you know how much your videos have meant to me in my dog training journey. I've gained an incredible amount of knowledge from your content. It's really frustrating to see the challenges you're facing due to individuals who don't understand your expertise. They wouldn't even consider training the dogs that you do. They'd rather choose to put dogs down than correct a dog... it's disgusting. You're making a significant difference in dogs' lives, and in my view, you're the best dog trainer out there. Your phrase 'the proof is in the pudding' rings true - your results speak for themselves. Keep up the fantastic work!
I have a 1,2 year old amstaff that went through a 7 month trainig with a local tranner and after that, I just ketp doing some basic exercises to keep her sharp. I found your channel a couple of days ago and man, I can tell you your method and tips have taken her training to another level specially with a cheap e collar I use. I have watched hundreds and hundreds of trainers here on TH-cam, but you sir are a class act.
I know it is hard for both you and family to deal with such hate and stupid people pointing the finger at you. Keep on going. The amount of people supporting you and sending positive vibes will neutralize those stupid people.
A fan/friend from Brazil!!!
Love you and your videos. Never questioned your integrity. Watched your whole expose of this situation and my respect for you grew even higher. Best wishes. K from Massachusetts
It's the age of the internet and the era we live in. Those who have owned and trained power breeds for years know that stern correction which is almost always needed is vastly different from abuse. Those who know... know. As an owner of a German Rottie, a Presa, and now a Corso, they have been some of the best canines/friends I've ever had.... But sweet talking and begging would have NEVER worked for them. Your work is not good.... It's GREAT and very informative. So, a simple thank you sir is all I have to say. Be and stay well.
No...thank YOU for the support. Much love
Stay strong brother. From the UK, I watch all your videos and you've helped me massively with my Dobermann. You are truly an amazing, honest and one of the most genuine dog lover/ trainers out there. I wish peace for you and your family and I hope your wife gets to a place where she can relax and find some peace.
Cannot thank you enough for everything you've done for all of dog owners, around the world.
Collectively, we offer you our love and support, my brother from another mother.
You have helped me so much in the training of our new plott hound puppy, he has the hound stubbornness. I'm so sorry you are going through this.
Well done for doing this. Wasn’t needed imho but cudos for doing it.
I myself am currently trying train our 11 week old Alaskan shepherd. Your videos are an inspiration to me and I Thankyou for posting what you do. Out of the 1000’s of online dog trainers you are the only one I take my advice from.
Again, thanks for what you do. John from Glasgow Scotland.
My wife and I found your channel and training videos just over a year ago and we binged them together prepping for our East German working like GS and we are so grateful for all of the help they’ve been! Not only did it help prep us for a working line but also helped clean up issues with our golden retriever.
I remember watching the original video that was obviously doctored and being amazed in the change that came from a single session. You save dogs lives and anyone with half a brain and willing to watch more than a 5 second clip can see your passion for dog training and love for the animals.
Praying over your family and your business. Keep up the good work!
I'm sorry for what you and your family are going through. Your videos have been very helpful and encouraging to me over the past year with our new German Shepherd (and later we learned 1/4 husky) pup. I hope you're all able to put your minds at ease, and put this behind you as soon as possible.
I am completely in awe. I try not to get into social media and give my time or attention to the Internet or media because of people like the ones that had the nerve to accuse you of this. Put your family in danger by putting your personal information out there as well as putting your family at risk by trying to get likes by trashing your amazing heartful business that supports your family. I wanted to just take the time to say THANK YOU!!! I commend you and genuinely appreciate people like you. You're an amazing man, father, husband, trainer, and humanitarian, and dog lover. You NEED to keep doing what you're doing. PLEASE DON'T CHANGE. You are saving canine and human lives. Please keep going for not only you, your family, the canines and owners of the world, but even for the ignorant people out there because they only show how much more we need people like you!! I absolutely love your content, the knowledge you share, and the beautiful canines you help. Keep that beautiful heart and love alive. Thankyou for being you!!! Keep it coming! Some people just are so full of hate, aggression, and pain that they truly will never understand what realness and love is. So many people feel the need to hate and destroy. There is so much cruelty in the world, I really don't understand why people feel the need to create more or inexcusably attack someone who has done nothing but try to spread good into the world. But we have to just keep feeding love and knowledge out to the world. Three things I think everyone should live by and with, love, knowledge, honor. Bless you, your family, your team and business, and all the beautiful canines you have helped. Thankyou for spreading your knowledge, experiences, compassion, and love with the world. Never let anyone stop you from being you and from wanting to live the way we all should...with love, knowledge, honor, compassion, morals, and a pure heart. Thankyou again!
Well said! It’s a tragedy of our social media world that this even happened. In 1994 I trained my first standard poodle with a prong collar, and in 2010 I trained my second standard with a prong. I learned from Cesar Milan how to do it properly. Both were 6 months old when we started and both were super excited when I put it on because it meant training and fun. They both developed into secure, loving, well trained, and balanced dogs for 14 years. I very much appreciate all the important info that Garrett provides in his videos and agree completely with his training philosophy. Thank you so much and cheers from 🇨🇦.
I am so sorry that you’re going through all of this.
You have so many people who look up to you and respect you.
I know I would have been lost without all your help and boundless information. I will keep you and your family in my thoughts.
Sir, The folks tuning into your channel are avid dog lovers who want to have properly trained companions. With that said… who ever that guy is can absolutely, “Fluff Off!” I’ll be staying right here to learn how to be a more responsible dog owner. Sorry for your troubles and stay above the fray my friend. We are with you!
I absolutely love and respect the work that you do. Every time I read in the news a dog had to be put down after biting a kid or a postman it makes me sad, with the proper training that dog wouldn't have leashed out and would still be alive. You're giving aggressive dogs a second chance at the risk of your own safety! On top of that, you're also publishing videos online showing your methods, teaching others around the world how to better communicate with their dogs.
Hello!
My husband and I love your videos. We have been watching them ever since we got our 2 GSD’s 2 years ago. The videos have helped us deal with food and resource aggression. We appreciate the time you take to teach us these things. We can tell you have integrity of character. You are doing a great job- keep up the good work!
We have watched almost every video you have ever put out and love them all. I have met a lot of men, most don’t have the integrity and character that you have. Your transparency has helped my family tremendously with my 2 female shepherds thank you so much. My wife and I can’t wait for your new content!!
I ended up here researching GSD's as I am ready to bring one into my life again after many years. I would like to say, good on you for doing this video, extremely well thought out, I don't see anything on your channel except success in working with some very difficult cases. The hard to accept reality for a lot of people is how these extreme cases need to be handled, you have some amazing results and saved these dogs lives, and that is what counts.
I'm glad I found your channel, a lot of really helpful videos, all the best to you and your business.
Off topic if you know about GSD and educated yourself I would say congrats 🎉! Cause they are the best breed ever.. just be prepared for the shedding 😂🎉 we call ours tinsel .. it's every where.. 😂
@@roxymustafa6382 thanks for the tip, my last dog was actually a GSD x Doberman, mostly GSD, the one thing I remember was his hair was everywhere!! I say I'm ready, but we'll see!!
Keep up the great work! Your vids have helped us a lot with our lab! It is refreshing to find anything online that is real no nonsense content and that is exactly what this channel provides. love it! Thank you!
This is ridiculous. I'm sorry for you and your wife and kids. Im sorry you are being dragged and hurt by this. Ppl are so stupid. I appreciate all that you have shown and taught us. I have learned so so much from you - and im angry at the haters... the jealousy. I don't believe for a moment you are abusive. I'm glad you made this video and called these ppl out. Stay strong. The truth will shine.
Thank you Heather.
I am really sorry you and your family are going through this. ANYONE that follows you,and watches your videos knows how much you devote to these dogs.

Sending you and your family love...I've just recently found your videos... I see what you do...and why....and the results are plain to see as is your love and care for the dogs you work with..be blessed
Thank you for your contribution, you inspire me to get my first dog and to be a loving leader. Learn so much this last month. Hope everything is going better. Much love from Puerto Rico. Keep it up.
Wow! The Belgian (Sarge) who was filled with fear until you went in and turned his world around into a happy, safe and peaceful place made me literally tear up. I absolutely admire what you are doing for these dogs and their families. You take dogs who most trainers would never work with and you change their world for the better. Amazing work. Im sorry to hear you have been experiencing such hate and terrible accusations. It is so sad to hear how it is affecting your wife, as well 😢 I think you shut the “haters” down with this video because wow you are wonderful at what you do, you wholeheartedly care for dogs and are helping dogs live better lives. Keep it up!! 🙏👍🤗
Wrong
Praying for your family's comfort and justice for the situation! I don't have a dog anymore at the moment, but you've inspired me and shown me what a dog can truly be. As a self-proclaimed cat person, my goal in life to be a K9 officer. You've demonstrated over and over how amazing dogs can be. Please keep doing what you are doing. You mean so much more to this community
First time seeing you or a video of yours. I'm only 7 minutes in and I have to say I am so sorry for what is being done to you, your family and team. People on social media can destroy lives and that is 100% not ok. I hope they can be sued. The only way to stop these people is there has to be consequences for their actions. Again sorry for what you are going through. I was a teacher and have stopped due to a student claiming I kicked her. Luckily many other students were there and wrote affidavits saying it never happened but the hell I went through was awful. It hurts to be accused of something especially because we do what we do BECAUSE we care so much. 😢😢😢❤
3 years ago I rescued 2 east German working line German shepherds. Because of your videos and training advice, I have two wonderful obedient loving dogs. Thank you sir.
The fact that people actually believe that Garret could hurt a dog like that is just sickening. Over all the time I've spent watching your content, never have I thought for even a second that you didn’t know what you were doing. In fact, I've learned more from you than I ever thought I would!! I really hope, for your sake and your family's, that this whole thing subsides and gets dealt with soon. Some people, man... some people just upset me to my core.
As someone who is about to start her dog training career, I learn so much from you, not only methods, also the way you put your words and yourself out there
Someone else would probably address this matter in a very different way
But you did it so well, so thoughtfully, so wisely.
So inspiring!
the method is terrible. shoving a dog into listening on the ground…
@@levihan1155You’re incorrect.
@@SighDown my dog had aggression problems and I solved it just as fast as garret did WITHOUT forcing my boy on the ground and strangling him so it’s really not necessary
Lol You cannot be a dog trainer. You are very clearly a dog yourself. What are you gonna teach them, "If you shred the toilet paper, make these eyes, like this 🥺"
@@levihan1155you need an e collar and prong collar for yourself because you need serious training. If you disagree with this then go away and disappear
Omgosh, you broke my heart! I hope all this has passed for you and your beautiful family! I watch all you videos and I truly appreciate you for sharing your techniques! Your methods are on point with my dog trainer! After adopting xl American bully puppy, my husband and I found an abandoned blind pit bull in one of our rental houses! I couldn’t find a rescue that had room and I refused to take him to the pound! So he has now joined my family with my 4 other dogs him being number 5! He had never even been on a leash! He was in a very small cage! So now we are training two dogs separately! I have not let them be together yet! It’s been almost 3 months! It’s been a long process! I love to see your videos! They help me learn in so many ways! I got caught up in a position I wasn’t ready for! So the help that you give is so appreciated
I appreciate you and all your training videos. I have had much success with my dog using your techniques.
Thank you! Keep doing your work, you are changing so many lives of owners and dogs ❤
I have seen many of your TH-cam films. I consider you to be one of the top dog trainers out there. You are an inspiration to me and many others. Your professionalism can't be tarnished by internet bullies.This film is a solid defence and puts right what really happened. I support you!
You are one of the best ive seen. Coming from a training background myself, i have never seen someone as skilled as you are. You must be doing something good if they are trying to ruin you.
Keep going and rise above this. Anyone who knows about training dogs knows you are not into animal cruelty.
Thank you for your knowledge
I found your videos about a month ago. I didn’t know much about proper training, but your videos have shown me a fascinating world of how to properly care for my animals.
Thanks for the comment, we're glad you found us. Welcome!
100% Respect Garret, Stay strong for your family your team and all the people and dogs you are helping . Humanity is so much better when it has someone likes of you in this world. I have PTSD and know how horrible people can be. Peace Love Respect
I own two Cane Corso's and you've been a tremendous help with your coaching and techniques. It's obvious someone is jealous of your success and blessings. Keep pumping out content because the world needs you and lots of homes are happier because of you. Appreciate all you do and wishing you amazing health, guidance and blessings for your team and family!!
