I randomly remembered this channel and OH MY GOD watching this video feels so nostalgic. I was a child watching your videos and wishing to one day own and train a puppy. Although I don’t carry the same passion for dogs as I did back then, this channel holds a very special place in my heart❤
Zak's free walks were a game changer for my family and our rescue pit lab mix. So grateful for these videos!
Glad to hear this! It’s amazing what some free time outside for a dog will do in terms of satisfying them!
I am getting a pit lab mix today and he’s not quite a year old and the person who is giving him to me said that they haven’t been able to house train him. I’m a bit nervous about it and that’s why I’m here. I’m 61 years old and haven’t had a dog in 25 years! This dog stole my heart when I first seen him. So I’m cramming for any advice on potty training!
@@zakgeorgeHave you ever 🪄✨ tried that on yourself? 0:01
@@Curious-Michelehow is it going?
Great tips and ideas for new puppy owners. I would suggest them all and would do it myself. I also suggest having another crate in the bedroom so the puppy can sleep at night beside our bed to reduce anxiety and develop a bond with the puppy.
Can't wait for this series!!
Am thrilled about this series but was so sad to see that Shade’s tail has been docked - but I guess that was done before you had a say. Docking and cropping of ears is banned in the UK and punishable with jail, as it should be everywhere. Ears and tails are an essential part of dog communication and they really shouldn’t be touched. Please Zac and Bree you know this mutilation isn’t necessary and you have the platform to stop this practice. This comment isn’t a criticism of you but a genuine plea from the heart of a dog lover. That said, am really looking forward to the series.
I can understand why a lot of people think that way. I used to think that way too. it's kind of like getting your wisdom teeth pulled or getting your tonsils taken out. It's for health reasons to prevent possible unnecessary pain and ill-health later. I had a pitbull that had both her ears and her tail and she Not only would get hematomas on her ears but I also had a gated acre of land and if she wagged her tail too close to the gate, then blood would fly everywhere because she would wag her tail too hard against the gate making her bleed. I've also seen a friends Pitbull put their tail straight into a burning fire just because they wanted to sit down and look pretty for a treat. Dogs tails can really get them in trouble, where when they are just a couple of days old, there's not very many nerve endings in their tail yet. Docking tails is not typically to be a cruel Act, it's usually for sanitary reasons or to prevent having to go to the vet and saving the dog out a lot of pain and spending tons of money on something that could have been prevented.
My intention is not to be rude, but to be educational for someone who doesn't understand why someone would do that. I agree, at first glance, it's alarming but when you hear from the other point of view, it might make a little bit more sense. I hope this helps
My daughter has several Dobermans. Many that she has rescued. All of them have their ears and tails cropped. If they wag their tails and they are not cropped and their tails hit an object it can cause their tails to break. Ears are cropped to prevent infection.
@@judevicious3333It's still legal for various breeds, springer spaniel ls for example being used as working dogs are legally allowed to have a tail docked.
Hi Margaret. I Agree 💯docking and cropping is barbaric I would assume. Like Circumcision is definitely Barbaric. Any one who says docking and cropping is mutilation and painful but thinks Circumcision is OK is out of touch completely. Asking Zak to fight that fight is probably not
the best idea. If you watch Zak you know he is VERY involved in getting rid of ANY kind of what Zak calls Adversive trying tools. His plate is Full fighting this concept. Hey, maybe because it upsets you so much maybe YOU could do something.
Good luck
Keeping a journal is really helpful. I've got mine on my phone and it's amazing how quickly I began spotting patterns to pre-empt toilet needs and recognising when he's getting over-tired. 😊
I'm really looking forward to watching this series - an 'playing along' with my boy. 😊
Just wanted to say I’ve been watching several trainers videos and you are who I am sticking with. Some trainers have SO MANY conflicting methods within their own training style and different words for same action. Dog training at its finest is work enough to not complicate it with explaining something in 8 different ways. I bought your book. I’m thrilled you are advocating against abusive dog trainers who are misinforming millions of dog owners! You are doing great and positive work with dogs and I have become a grateful follower and fan!
Are you familiar with the ICBP Project? It uses an integrated perspective and mathematical modeling to level the field and establish a whole new paradigm in canine cognitive behavior pattern knowledge. Truly ground breaking. 🤔💭
What constitutes abusive dog trainers? What do you consider abuse?
I believe some dog trainers might have reservations about the use of choke collars because they either lack proficiency in their proper application or because they recognize it as a quick-fix solution to resolve issues. They may prefer alternative, slower methods to prolong the training process and charge clients for additional time. The debate over whether choke collars are painful is subjective. I'm aware of a facility with over 30 years of experience in training aggressive dogs using choke collars alongside other methods. This issue isn't a one-size-fits-all scenario; it's about a group of individuals looking to profit from their services due to the substantial financial potential.
One pertinent question to consider is: If they are indeed confident, why haven't they provided a comprehensive video demonstration, from start to finish, showcasing the positive reinforcement technique of training a large aggressive dog with treats?
Quick fix, slow problems.
Excited for this new series
For anyone reading this: I know that dog training can be difficult sometimes, but you're doing great. Keep up the good work, and your dog (and your own sanity) will thank you for it!
Can't wait to see more! 🤩
Perfect! We have 2 dogs and a giant breed puppy coming home in November. Thanks for this.
I love watching you and the way you interact with dogs. You're one of the reasons I want to work with dogs for a living. I know this new series is coming and I'm really excited for it, but I already have a suggestion for another one. I recently started fostering dogs, it's going amazing and 3/4 of my fosters got adopted! But that made me curious how you would work with a fearful/shut down dog. I recently fostered a ~5 months old girl that was so shut down, she did not leave her crate at all for the first few days (not even at night) and was going to the bathroom literally under herself. I had to force her out of he crate to clean up and then she went right back in. My heart was breaking for her and I was wondering how you would approach working with a dog like this.
Surprising thing that really helped that pup was to stay alone for 1,5h (in a controlled environment!) as I had to get my friend's doggo to the vet's. She got some of her confidence back and right before she got adopted she was only scared of people (freeze/flight reactions, no aggression).
We love your videos! We are training our second GSD and your videos and always so fun and informative to watch!
Looking forward to this new Zac George training series. The problem I have is I won’t be able to locate each episode after #1.
We got a French Mastiff at 4 mo old and he as not like Shade at all. He is now 1 year old and only in the last couple months has he decided toys were fun. Wrestling with our other dog is his favorite thing to do. My 2 biggest challenges are training with distractions and we cant get him into a pool. And it is extremely hot where we live. It is still in the low 100's. We are housebound for about 6 mo of the year. This also impedes training. I know he will get there, cuz your books and videos are the best.
Zak could you do a video series showing a truly aggressive dog and how you would train it with a clicker and a treat?
😂😂
Update about my puppy training with my new puppy all thanks to ZackGeorge; my puppy can now follow down, roll, sit, & fetch... he's still a little uncomfortable adapting to his crate so we're working on that slowly. Seriously Mr George; you have changed my entirety of my perspectives on dog training. I hope to know more on how to lower anxiety on adult dogs cause I have 2 adult dogs which I didn't have the opportunity to train properly from puppyhood. I've been following all your episodes but I'm a little scared with managing my adult dog cause he is very possessive with his things. Day to day, he is okay with family but can be quite dangerous around other animals. Would love to hear some advice on that.❤❤❤ Thank you so much Mr & Mrs George. All love, all the way from Malaysia 🇲🇾
These tricks will not prepare your puppy for the real world.
Great video! Puppies are not easy. Looking forward to seeing upcoming videos. 😀
So looking forward to this. I am on Week 2 of my puppy and am extremely nervous about him barking when I go to work in 4 days. Apartment life and I leave for work at 3:30am. Hoping he will just go back to bed until 6am when a walker will come to let him out. Hard to practice this early morning leave without the problem showing his face as he is just getting used to sleeping in his crate at night now.
My family is fostering a 9 month old cane corso this will really help!
Good luck following his guide 😂
Love your series. Where does Shade come from? Can you also talk about how to choose the right puppy breeder?
Yes the puppy blues are real, and not only for puppies, adult dogs too. Having a new living being in your house is very overwhelming but that’s a phase you need to go through until a solid routine has been established. It gets better luckily.
Thank you Zak. I have both books and looking forward to our newest member to the family this coming January. Our little one will be a little multipoo mix. Can you recommend a harness and leash for when we introduce him to training? Thank you again.
beautiful dog
Hey Zak, not sure you'll see this but maybe other people will who are looking to try and train their first puppy. Just over 3 years ago I decided to get my first dog and was determined she would be well trained as am a huge dog lover! As she was a collie-labrador cross I decided to watch all your videos of you training Inertia. My dog is now incredibly trained to the point where i walk her off lead along busy roads and she walks beautifully. Many people who don't like dogs (kids and adults) seem to love her and people have even asked where we got her professionally trained!
Just was walking along today and saw a guy training his dog and remembered your videos and thought i'd pop a comment to show my support and gratitude! Thanks so much :)
yess! ❤❤❤❤
I am looking forward to the new serie. About a gewoon months nu new service dog student puppy will arrive to slowly learn and take over the assistensdog work from my current CPTSD service dog Emma the next two years.
I’m getting a puppy in 3 months, already saw your Inertia experience 3 years ago ago and I’m excited to see a new series to help me get ready!!!
Yay! Looking forward to this series.
Heaps of best wishes!!!
I have a question, so my BC is now 8 months old, she's wonderful, BUT she still sniffs and tries to sneak a chew here and there.
Until when should i keep the puppy proofing?
I have recently been getting into dog training and I plan to make it a career in the future. I have one purebred catahoula at my mum's house (as well as one mix breed catahoula) and an aussie/bull terrier/lab mix at her house as well. At my dad's house we have a staffy mix. My dad just recently got my step mom a yorkiepoo. As much as I hate poodle mixes, I still want to train him well. This is very helpful, considering my mom is too busy working as a veterinarian to help me learn, and my dad just wants me to go to crappy public school.
When is Barkbox coming to Australia?
Yay! Shade!
Shade is so beautiful. A foster or a new family member? Looking forward to the series.
He is a temporary resident.
Is bark box available in India
Hey Zak! Love your videos!
My family is getting a Golden Retriever puppy in a couple months so this series will be awesome! I bought one of your books and look forward to reading it!
One question... We're going to be pretty low on money after the dog and don't have a fence. I have a pretty good sized yard though and I wish I could let him get exercise in the yard off leash. We are thinking of trying either an invisible fence or GPS fence since they're a good amount cheaper. Any thoughts on those?
Thanks!
I would recommend using a 30-50 foot leash before doing any actual off leash training or activity. It takes at least a good year for a dog to be off leash trained but it begins with training on a leash lol zak also uses long leashes and talks about them a lot with untrained dogs and off leash training. He has a few videos on “off” leash training but in the videos they are on a leash
@@jus.me.tanzks5834 Yeah for sure... I was going to train with long leashes. But I was wondering at times to just let him run around... Like no training just playing. I know I shouldn't use the invisible or GPS fences while he's a pup, but as he ages it would be nice to let him run free.
I just lost my 8-year-old mixed breed giant to cancer. A baby Saint Bernard will soon be joining our 3.5-year-old Saint, so this series will be perfect. BUT: Just when I thought I'd cried all my tears, I saw Indy's urn at 1:43. Awww, man. That hurt. Tell me, Bree, if you're reading this - tell me the grief will pass some day, or at least get better!
Also, this is maybe a big ask, but I wonder if you guys could talk a little about the emotions involved in adding a new puppy when you're still grieving the loss of an older dog.
hey zak!! im 13 and my familys about to get a dog, dont really know what breed but hes pretty small. we have A LOT of wires lying around and for the past 15 minutes ive been trying to cover them up. But there are a few I just cant patch up, like the ethernet cable. Is there anything you suggest i do?
How long will this pup be with you? Long enough to experience the challenges of adolescence?
Hey Zac, why don’t ya start a series on aggressive dogs? Or more series on dealing with dogs who have behavioral issues that have come from a rescue or shelter? There’s a lot of people that try to do a good thing by adopting a dog from a shelter but don’t know how to work around behavioral issues and the dog goes back to the shelter. :( You already did a puppy one years ago. Loved the dogs from the shelter series- a lot more realistic!
Overall, do love your stuff but wish ya did more behavioral issues w/ a new dog.
Oh don't worry, we can be certain he will run into behavioural issues with a blue Corso.
Zack did a series with rescue dogs. I think he had two weeks with them. There was a reactive German shepherd and a pit bull named George and an Alaskan Street dog.
@PatA95 and didn't get too far with them, unfortunately 😕 longer series would've been better to actually see some of the implied results with R+ he so highly preaches.
He did two or 3 series with shelter dogs since the last puppy
@@rachelcrossen8136 with little success.
Shade is so pretty and cute 🥰
Hi! I have a 15 week old puppy that is working on telling me he wants to go outside. He doesnt bark much so that hasnt worked and currently trying the bells. If you could show how you guys handle that with Shade that will be great!
At 15 weeks you should take your pup outside every hour and at least 10 minutes after eating. You'll have a pup that knows he has to relieve himself outside and you'll have fewer messing to clean up. He'll eventually figure out how to let you know when he has to go.
Also, I'M SO GLAD YOU'RE TRAINING A CANE CORSO!
It's like you responding directly to all your nay sayers. Thank you!!!
A young puppy that’ll show them!!
Nay sayers call him out on dog behavior training not puppy training. Huge difference. Huge
@@serwinzzalot9989 but he's already done that. O.o
Lmao 🤣 he is showing “naysayers” exactly what they been saying….stick to puppy training and leave real aggressive dogs to real trainers duh 🌭 nation not so bright
Newsflash: he proves his naysayers right, once again.
Zak: In cases where an individual breaks the law, do you think imprisonment serves as an effective deterrent to prevent them from repeating the offense? Alternatively, do you believe a different approach, such as a compassionate plea and a steak dinner, might be more effective in persuading them not to harm others?
Eeeh, I feel like I suggested this on the poll or something like this. Not sure if it was added because of that but I'm so happy to see a "prep" stage of training.
We are getting our puppy week of Thanksgiving 2023. I have a 9 year old dog and 4 year old cat. Let me know if you have any tricks for them to get along.
I don't have a puppy. My girls are 4 and 1, but we still use ur videos. Can't wait for this new series. Great job, Zak and Bree. Thank you for ALL the work you do ..
I can’t wait to see Shade learn to walk on leash, that’s always my favorite skill
I’m excited for this new series! 👏
Hey Zak, I'm having a problem with my dog she used to love playing with other dogs it was her favourite thing to do, and then she went through heat. Now, she is aggressive towards other dogs growling and nipping the air near other dogs. And not wanting to play with them or share her toys, ball, or frisbee. 😢😢 can you recommend a course of action, please, and thank you
Yaaaaaay been waiting a lifetime for a new series....cannot wait....any updates from Moira, George and the other pooches? How they getting on? Would be great to hear how they're doing
Oh and thank you so much, I learn so much for you 🌈💫🙏👌
They are both doing amazing and living the good life with their families! 🥰
Hey, Zak! I know you are super busy and may not even see this comment, but I really need your help!
I am an aspiring dog trainer and love watching your channel to learn about dog training and I apply what I see on your channel to training my own dog. Looking at the two types of dog training, I'm learning all the time why certain things are less effective or even more damaging in the long term.
My family doesn't do a lot of research into this, they just want well behaved dogs. They also tend to lean towards the "fastest" ways to get a result, punishment. My family's dog has recently started marking our barbeque grill and his water bowl. Then we moved and he no longer had access to the grill and the bowl is now closer to the ground, so he's no longer marking it, but he has started marking anything metal or plastic he has access to. We don't want him marking these things and my family wants to use a shock collar to discourage his marking these things, but I'm concerned that doing so could make him afraid to mark or even pee on anything? Are my fears completely unfounded or am I on to something? And how would you handle this problem?
When I train dogs, I NEVER use punishment. Only positive reinforcement
Zaaaaak you're awesome!!!!
Let me take a shot at this.
So you will be training sit, down,stay, threshold manners,loose leash walking, leave it and our favorite word uhuhu. Your personal border collie is going to act in a way that is not in your script your rescue pup is going to be timmed and have outburst.
Ect.... we have seen it all before. Don't forget the add campains in the beginning of every video. And you will be using a lot of fancy talk for putting a treat Infront of a dog and asking them to sit. Free shaping ect. We know zak you can train puppies good for you. But can you train owners to train their own puppies or problematic dogs?
Every episode at this point is the same. So what is the point.
New series should be required viewing for mastiff owners - Foundational lessons (positive) during the critcal stage of puppyhood will have a huge impact in adulthood.
@@rjavier6744 most gaurding breeds start to show signs of aggression round about 12- 19months of age.
My family have always owned cane Corso's, Dogo Argentina's, Bull Mastiffs and the Resent XL Bully's. As puppies the sweetest dogs usually getting along with any and everything low energy and big snuggle bugs. At 12months you will start noticing there gaurding instinct kick in at 19 months they are willing to kill to protect their family.
If my family didn't have strong leadership well let's just say it would have been bad. I use to hate any form of correction until my girl slipped out of her harness and almost got hit by a car. So I hope Zac will do a update when he is a 19month old.
I see you can't take what you dish out .😊
Love the Cane Corso breed. An ex-boyfriend had one and I was more upset about losing the dog than losing him when we broke up. They are too much dog for me, and I don’t have a large backyard, or I’d add one to my dog family.
Literally seeing you after 10 years....sad to express my feelings you are getting old🥲
If shade ever becomes too difficult to handle, you can always call up the Dog Daddy for tips.
Got em
Hey Zak! I absolutely love your videos, they've been such a great help! I was hoping that you had a video on excessive marking outside of the home? My dog manages to turn a ten minute walk into an hour and a half 😅
Welcome Back to what we all know, love, and expect from you, Zak 👏 I'm excited for the new series 😊
Won’t take long until he’s back on the dog daddy shit
Can't believe someone like Zak got a puppy with a docked tail 😢
Can you do a video on puppy vaccinations and if we should give all core and non-core, and how many times we should? There’s so much controversy over overvaccinating a good video with info would be great
Was Shade ABUSED with castration and if so, what age was he abused?
Looking at the times it seems like Zak went hunting for a “tough” breed to prove himself and his methods.
Bold move Zak
thats good.
A puppy tho come on 😂
I haven’t found much good positive training videos on “boy specific issues” like how to stop marking or how to stop excitement humping. Would be great if y’all could cover gender specific topics.
How is this a puppy? I wanted to know from puppy stage
Hey Zak I hope you’re taking care of yourself
I hope you don’t mind me saying are you’re tiered in this video.
Please do take care of yourself as your a great person
Zak just in time! My puppy will come home in several weeks and I truly want to socialize her. I will try to bring her with me as much as I can but what about putting her on the ground. I know vets do not recommend setting the dogs down on places that are unfamiliar until fully vaccinated. What is your perspective on this?
Some of these videos make it seem so easy to potty train. We are so frustrated. All our new mini poodle 8 wks old when we take her out is to eat the pine straw and sniff around. She goes potty as soon as we bring her back in the house! Help!!
Zak: Could you provide insight into why law enforcement tends to favor breeds like German Shepherds, Rottweilers, and Doberman Pinschers over breeds such as Beagles, Golden Retrievers, or Labrador Retrievers?
I remember you mentioned clipping your puppy to your belt in your book. Something I wish I knew when my corgi was a puppy. She chewed many wires! Even though she is two years old, she is on a leash and I'm on the other end. I believe that this has created a bond between us! I release her when we play fetch and meal times. She's never has eaten from a bowl. I use mental stimulation activities and she's loves it! Sometimes I have to be careful because she may show signs of food aggression. I noticed that there were many negative comments on cropping. My daughter has several Dobermans and she informed me that if their tails weren't cropped and they wagged their tails hitting an object it would break their tails. Cropping ears prevents infections. Who wants to keep paying vet bills when it could be prevented? My Pembroke Welsh Corgi's tail is cropped. This practice probably dates back to when they were used to herd cattle. The were bred with Dachshunds to create their short legs.
The puppy is with him for a few weeks? Did I really hear correctly. Why not have this male puppy for 2 years. That would be an interesting thing to see. Where is this puppy from; a shelter? Why is the tail docked? It is forbidden in Europe for ethical reasons.
Puppy trainer is back 😂
Puppy training is foundational. Addressing behaviors early on can prevent serious issues down the line. Instead of looking for quick fixes for adult dogs, why not start them off right? Let’s focus on solving the root causes, not just the symptoms.
Yes. But quick fixes are desperately needed by many. So do your thing and let others do theirs. How entitled is it to judge others? Who gave you permission to go after them? That is riding a high horse. Watch out! Don`t fall. @@zakgeorge
@@zakgeorgeThat's cool but I also hope you work with adult dogs asw. (Eg. Adult cane corso with reactivity issues, resource guarding etc because that's what people haven't seen). Until then you'll only be proving your haters right. If you don't think you're equipped to handle that kind of problems with certain dogs or in dogs over a certain age, that's fine but you should also state that to your viewers.
Also I hope you do a 1-2 year follow up with Shade and his family as well, cause a lot of the time problem behaviors start during adolescent to "young adult" stage.
Any news??
How dare you criticized Augusto, he's saving dogs from euthanasia, while you are playing with puppies 🤦 ,but i guess your narcissistic personality doesn't allow you to see beyond your nose
The focus here is not to vilify individuals but to critically evaluate methods and techniques. Augusto’s practices, which employ force and intimidation, do not align with current, evidence-based understanding of animal behavior and welfare. It’s important to clarify that while his approach may claim to save dogs from euthanasia, the training techniques he employs can exacerbate behavioral issues rather than resolve them, ultimately affecting the long-term well-being of the animal. The aim is to educate the public on modern, scientifically supported methods that prioritize the dog’s emotional and physical health.
@zakgeorge your theory, need to SHOW results in practice, you won't show anyone Practice because you are incompetent when dealing with aggressive dogs, your propaganda and agenda will end up killing lots of dogs ,your narrative is a danger to aggressive dogs that could be trained with proper corrections ,stop this nonsense, your only incentive is Money if you care about dogs life you wouldn't be doing this ,specially unwilling to have a debate, you chose the back and forth replay, so you can keep spreading this agenda ,the racial of likes on your videos and Augustos videos shows thay people with a little common sense approve Augusto a lot more than you
Actually I'm someone who supports balance training, I do feel like he goes overboard with some dogs. (judging this by a few of his shorts and youtube videos). I feel like he leans towards a more aversive rather than balanced approach. I definitely think what he does works and he cares about the dogs he trains(hence the support) but there are other balance trainers (eg. Larry krohn) who show a less extreme way of helping the behaviours. I feel like Augusto pretty much uses the same method for every dog while in reality he should change the approach based on the cause of the dogs behaviour. (Eg. are the being aggressive because of resource guarding, fear of humans etc.)
@@lolxd8639 I actually agree with this, balanced trainers should be able to call out bad training when we see it on either side. As bad of a trainer Zak is, and I must say he is very bad, Augusto isn’t good either. And people watching in the middle are expected to side with one extreme rather than someone good in the middle
what state is this? it looks so nice
Alaska
Please prove me wrong, but I’ve always thought of Cane Corsos as murder monsters
I am sure we will prove you wrong this series
🤔❤️
Question- Do you advocate the use of a cage to train puppies? Is this not a form of suppression causing long term adverse psychological affects on the dog.
Would love to see some shelter work. Those poor dogs can really use some help. I'm sure Zac and his successful business can help the good work those shelters are doing.
I mean absolutely no disrespect when I say this but DAMN ZAK YOU GOT OLD BRO!! I’ve been watching you do this since you were a kid I guess . I never realized how long it’s been.
😅 Thanks for sticking around!
@@zakgeorge so ya know I had to go back and check…I’ve been watching you do your thing for 13 YEARS OMG!!! Congrats on the longevity! Proud of you fam!!!! ❤️❤️💪🏾💪🏾
Why is his tail docked though? I would have expected from Zak that he is against such practices. I reckon Zak did have no say in the tail docking (he said he is fostering I think?), but still, I hope he points out that it is unnecessary nowadays.
This happened at the breeder. I do not promote tail docking.
@@zakgeorge Alright, I expected that, thanks and sorry, was just wondering.
Nice! Back to training puppies, right where you belong my friend
Not to say he actually trains them well or in less than several years. LMAO
Try trainning a irish setter, english setter or gordon setter
Best you keep to the 'no threat' puppies.😁
I need help.
Ive been training my dog daily since day 1 as a puppy, she is now 7 months old.
She did good for awhile, but eventually she stopped caring about training. Ive tried even offering steak to her as a reward and she isnt interested. She isnt interested in play, praise, food, whistle, or clicker for training.
You can see that she decides to ignore our commands and will run in the other direction. She will only come to us when she herself decides to.
We have ample acreage for her to explore as she pleases, but she continues to run across the road or jump the fence into neighboring property. What can i do because as much as i love her i cant have her doing this anymore
This is the point Zak’s training will get you to unfortunately. I would recommend consulting a credible balanced trainer (not Dog Daddy etc as he is as problematic for balanced trainers as Zak is to positive trainers) and work with them through any problematic behaviours and it will do you and your dog the world of good
hi @XxBrMagicxX, try these 2 things:
1. only feed your dog when training, it's okay if he/she won't take the food and don't eat 24-36hrs. don't give free food, make your puppy work for it
2. follow through your command, and you need to say the command once only. for example when you ask your puppy to sit, make sure you say it clearly. and wait till he/she sit. use leash so you can stay at one place and wait till he/she sit. you can also use negative reinforcement by giving pressure to his/her back
hope these can help you
we need to see treats work on aggressive dogs ASAP, to show all these haters our trust in you comes at no price, I know you are ready Zac, believe in yourself for once, please!!!
You should do giveaways on the first flight video
Nope you should get a job
The walking and not pulling the leash is almost impossible for my dog, Jake the Husky. I've trained all my dogs past and present, but he's a challenge!
Glad to see you back in your lane.
Let others do what they do well.
🤦🏻♂️ You better know what your doing. Cane Corso are not meant for everyone. You can't change their DNA to be a Golden retriever. Cane Corso are a Guardian breed.
I have two questions. Nothing to do with this particular video. Do you have videos of the reasons why you became a dog trainer and what method you use.? And I have a 11 week old puppy. My question is how much sleep does a puppy need each day?
@zakgeorge the problem I had with my Boerboel didn't start as a puppy but when he reached 14months old. We worked with a professional positive reinforcement science based trainer since he was a tiny puppy between 10-12 weeks old. We worked with this trainer every week 3 private lessons and 1 group classe up until 14 months of age. That is when he attacked the trainer for the first time and it wasn't just a nip or air snap. I had to chock him off of the trainer. Found a nother positive reinforcement trainer worked with him for 2 months when he attacked a German shepherd. After that is when I contacted a local balance dog trainer and started learning about leadership corrections and how to read his body language. He is 11 years old and never again had an bite incident since and never went into that red zone attack again. He is so old but if he sees another dog he is just a big old puppy having old man zoomies. This is why I am concerned for this puppy in the future.
anecdotal.
@@rjavier6744 what???
@@rjavier6744 There's a reason he's taking on a puppy instead of an adult cane corso :)
“Getting them comfortable with the crate even if they don’t like it” - so you’re going to force them into learning how to be comfortable with it even if they hate it? Don’t you always talk about addressing the underlying cause and allowing dogs to do what they want? But you’ll force the dog into that negative emotion by imposing the crate in it? Sounds like you can’t even stay within your own boundaries.
There’s no groundbreaking or new information here. It’s just another video to monetize and have sponsored.
Actually I am referring to counterconditioning where we change the conditioned emotional response this is one of the amazing things about modern dog training. Hope to have you along for the journey!
@@zakgeorgeyou mean counterconditioning that balanced trainers do as well. Counterconditioning creates a negative response emotion....so yes its a needed boundary in training. Perhaps don't be a hypocrite
@@ambernavarro9938😂😂😂
@@Joemol5746 I know the hypocrisy is hilarious
Where did my response go? You didn`t like it?😮💨@@zakgeorge
Good post. "Dog doughnut" part was really funny. Thanks.
Notice there's always a lot of talk, advertising and no real training in this guy's videos? Then he gets a jail to put the puppy in and keeps his prison away from windows so pup can't see the real world. This guy needs be canceled. He's a hazard to puppies everywhere.
You should drive a Rose Royce with sparkles on the roof
Huehuehue......good one.......🤣🤣🤣
But he does
Dog Daddy just surpassed 3 million subs. 3.1 million to be exact. When CBS News recently wanted to talk to a reputable dog trainer about the issues with president Biden's dog, they called Robert Cabral. Fill in the blanks.
It's interesting to observe how Zak utilizes images of intimidating Rottweilers and German Shepherds, yet the video features a small, non-aggressive 20lb dog. Would it be accurate to describe this as clickbait or a misleading presentation?
Can you believe we're taking advice from someone sporting a certification from PETSMART and getting their information from DIY study sessions? I must confess, they don't have an official degree or hold a license as a dog trainer! LOL! Let that one sink in! 😄🐾
