    For those interested look up Wendy Volhard’s Puppy Aptitude Test. It has been the gold standard of puppy testing for many years. It has excellent explanations of how to administer the test. And as others have said, testing rescue puppies who have lacked “normal” upbringing can change the test results. If in doubt, find a trainer who is familiar with the test to come with you. Also be aware that every breed has a little bit different result. A Lab will not test like a Chihuahua nor like a Husky

    I know this is a very old video, but I appreciate it as I'm heading to a shelter in 2 days to view a litter of puppies. It is believed they are German Short-hair Pointer, Lab, and Shepherd mix, possibly retriever in there too. I'm going to be testing them out. I know that GSP can be insane (great dogs but on crack) and wouldn't make a good option. I am hoping that mixed with everything else it will be toned down. Also, you are so right, there are always exceptions to rules when it comes to breeds. When I was a kid, I had a shepherd/husky/wolf mix. He had zero prey drive, the only thing he ever snapped at was a bee I hadn't realised had flown into my hair. He didn't want to run, and refused to cross the street even unless I told him he could ahead of time. He absolutely loved having young children come up to him and practically maul him.

    hell that's what I need cause I can't afford to pay 50k just for a service dog. My seizures can be really bad Ive fallen broken glasses scraped my arms legs face. I haven't worked for 13 years now which sucks I can't even do what I like to do anymore. I have a neuropace device on my right side of my brain and no left memory cell since that cell cannot be used anymore. I was diagnosed with viral encephalitis which almost killed me and I was in a coma for 2 1/2 months. I had to re-learn how to walk talk read write all over again.

    It's about time! Folks with DID often have to train their service animals themselves, and many are unable to do that. Dogs can tell when someone is dissociating and having a panic reaction, etc. it's absolutely a clear fit. Even as a pet sitter, the animals can tell when we switch…and who is fronting, even down to knowing who in here will give them extra treats, cuddles, play, or who they can bamboozle. 😂

    What are those 30 things? My pup needs a refresher well me too and the organization’s here just aren’t up to par. I don’t want to give them more money for nothing. He was originally trained at Alabama Dog Academy but we had to move to Georgia and I think the place I went was just taking folks money or I dunno. I’m disabled and have a lot of issues. The one that I fail at most is understanding what people are saying and I just look confused. I have M.E. That causes the most problems. I get lost and confused too. But enough about me, is there a way that you can help me?

      @mobstercrow7515 Рік тому

      Usually puppies don't get as scared as adults dogs since they are more outgoing. This is why the puppy phase should be filled with desensitizing. There should be lots of weird objects like wobble boards that move, boxes that they can stand on or climb inside of, skateboards, weird surfaces, inflatable dog training mat things that they can step on, uneven surfaces, people of all ages, loud noises like dropping a metal bowl or shaking a container full of nails and bolts, the TV should play various things 24/7 including: sirens, loud thunder and rain, fireworks, dogs barking, people yelling, the metal pipe sound effect, animal noises, videos of dogs, cats, birds, squirrels and other animals, guns shooting, loud cars and motorcycles, bike riding and other things so they won't get scared or aggressive towards sounds or animals when they get older. I bought 3 types of wobble boards to use with my next service dog prospect. I've also found that my current service dog is afraid of the big orange carts at home depot, so I trained him to stand on them and do various things on top of them, he isn't scared anymore and he loves standing on them now! He is also afraid of sewer covers, so every time we walk, I make him go over them 3 or 4 times. He is still a bit afraid of them which is understandable (I'm scared of them too) but he will willingly walk over them now instead of stopping and looking at me with a sad face.

      @hay_Z2021 Рік тому

      Key word "incessant" it's very very rare that a service dog should bark during a mistake, and they really should bark no more than 1 or 2 low barks, and should he quickly corrected for doing so, a constant bark should only be exhibited by a service dog if it's trained to do so, usually it's to alert people around that the handler is unconscious, or injured,
