![WHAT HAVE I DONE?! First Day of Training with This COMPLETELY UNTRAINED DOG. [Reality Dog Training]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/nCDayvimYws/mqdefault.jpg)
The part where Zak says "Oh there's dogs coming," sums up my entire experience training my rescue pitbull lol
That's me with my dog LOL
Same with my Pomeranian mix 😂
❤ me too my GS girl
Respect for what Zak has taken on with this dog - just this morning, I had a taste of this myself: A very large dog came to our fence and wouldn't leave the fenceline of our property, as he was attracted by our own dogs. Staying there would have put the dog's life at risk however, as we have big building trucks go up and down the road here. No owner in sight. He seemed friendly and exuberant, so, I stepped outside the gate and slipped a slip leash over his head. NOW however, that large dog became a bit nervous and started jumping up and mouthing at me. I was able to lead him down the street, phoning up various neighbors as I went, and, eventually, I got the dog back into the care of his owner BUT it's no joke handling a completely uneducated large, powerful dog that doesn't know you, and you don't know it. It is a risk. I also wouldn't have dared letting that dog come near my own dogs without the fence in between, as one just never knows. Dogs that either lived wild on the street or half-wild as property guardians like my neighbor's dog, are VERY different from dogs that were raised in homes with humans. Great work, Zak, educating this large pup.
It took my dog MONTHS to learn how to settle in the house. With a lot of patience he's a pro now!
I simply cannot wait for Chop's DNA results. This series is sooooo good ❤️
Same here lol, I love the doggie DNA tests, they're really fun. I did one on my mutt and couldn't stand waiting for 6 weeks or so to get the results.
me neither, I bet there's a livestock guardian breed in there, it's been 1 year since the series came out but for me, I'm enjoying watching it episode after episode, no jumping ahead to fine out the dna results, lol!
Happy pie hole day to all the wonderful pets in our lives 🐈🐩🐕🐎🐠🐢🐦🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾
16:59 LOL, the subtitle on the TV
Chop is doing so well 👏. You can see clearly how he’s bonded to Zak with the leaning on him and his tail is always wagging when he looks at you. It’s good you give him plenty of affection, I think that helps since he probably hasn’t had much of it in the past. Good job Chop 👍🥰
Wow! This is the earliest I’ve ever been! I’m so excited to see what Chop gets up to in this one.
My friend just adopted a dog that was a mother from a puppy mill😪 we are having a very hard time because she is scared of EVERYTHING maybe you could do this for you next series?
I have a dog which I thought was a Black GSD when I rescued him at 5 weeks old from a lousy backyard breeder, but I'm having my doubts anyways at a whopping 70 lbs for a 6 month old pup yet you can still see muscle and rib you have no clue how seeing you handling bigger dogs is beyond helpful.
At 6:51 when he was barking it really sounded (to me) like he was asking “why aren’t they coming to play with me???” In a young child’s whiny tone. So cute.
Chop is so handsome and he's trying, it's just so alien to him.
Oh Inertia is such a good girl, just going to settle because she was asked very gently. So glad we have the Dog Training Experience to learn how to make our own dogs as good as she is!
U should really make an online group if not already
My working distance for other dogs on leash used to be half a football field, I have lived this struggle but with a dog who takes any pulling backwards as a sign that there is danger and he needs to put on a big display. So nice to see you working on similar issues
I simply cannot wait to for chops DNA results Zak is a fantastic dog trainer..and i just love chop's he is a beautiful dog ,
The settle training is so good to see. It has made me realise I need to train that with my own dog. We have relied too much on using the crate when she needs to settle (and she does settle without any problem in there) but she isn't very good at relaxing outside of the crate so it has become this double-edged sword.
I recently rescued a dog that placed the house. I started using the leash method I also started sprinkling dog food on her bed a say food girl. Just randomly when she was settled on it. She now keeps all her toys on that bed and she will relax there.
I really loved the new editing style! I'm sure you've heard a million suggestions, but I think it would be great for you to bring a deaf dog on for a series. My parents have a deaf pitbull, and my first dog is my Deaf Boxer. I think a lot of people refrain from getting special needs dogs, and that you could really help get rid of their stigma!
That's a really good suggestion. I wonder if Zak would be up for that challenge.
I love this suggestion.
For sure along with tiny dogs and medium dogs like a bulldog I heard their stubborn
09:40 Ha! True-est reality of dog training right there.
Owner: today was a really good training day, Chop's made SO much progress!
Chop: I wonder if this couch is edible
The filming while watching a show was such a great idea
Yay! New Chop video!!!!
This Chop🐾 series will be very helpful for STRONG little.Naz.SPAZZ and I as she's very reactive to other dogs. Inertia is such a.sweet angel. Thank you.
This is definitely what I need this video
Nothing but love , thank yuh.
My dog plays the same way! Upside down! Never would I have thought an 85lb dog could contort himself the way he does and enter Chomp ❤ My dogs not broken after all lol
Love this series!
Thats my little pup Zoey pullimg me all arround the neighnorhood! 🤔😩😊
Watched a lot of dog training videos online and hands down yours are the best out there!!! You blow Caesar Milan out of the water. I find his stuff sensational and inapplicable. But everything you do is real and applicable!! Keep up the good work 👍😊
Love all of these videos ❤
I'm so excited to watch this video! ❤😆
Love this series! I know it will be a few years until I can get a dog, so this is tiding me over while also educating me!
❤thanking you for helping this big boy
Great video.... yet again
My pitbull puppy reminds me of chop and I really could use the help even if it is just the help of the video from Zak
Great video! Just love Chop! Hoping that you and your family have a wonderful and blessed Thanksgiving!
You are an amazing trainer. I have learned so much from your videos. Thank you.
I was delighted when your notification came though, it was a nice surprise 😊 Great video 👍
Love that dog great job to you Bree and yourself
So proud of the videos these help my dog so much thank you for helping dogs out there and thanks for helping my dog and lm sure others to keep up the good work
Awww Chop makes me giggle. I had a wild dog. He had that same look of wanting to learn. He was the best!
Keep him
Lol love the highlighted view of people in the distance… wasn’t paying attention for a minute and looked at the screen and saw that effect and thought is there a Bigfoot in the trees. Lol
Really appreciate your openness, honesty, and humility with the process in all of your videos. Thank you for your dedication to training these wonderful animals.
He is a lovely dog and I'm sure you will get him trained well Zac 🙂
Thanks, Zak, for the brilliant video yet again. My GSD is almost 1.5years old and he does brilliantly off-lead with dogs - even stepping in to calm down situations in our socialising play group each week and reads other dogs perfectly, however with on-lead interactions he is reactive. He's my lifeline since I've quite bad PTSD and he gets me safely out of the house but we have to walk in quiet areas.
Since your video of sitting in the park with Chop, we also done that for a few hours. Boy, was it tough for him to relax.. Hoping with more time he'll shape into a brilliant adult dog.
Thank you for providing these resources online for free. Much love and pawsitivity from Ireland to all you guys.
I feel Chop is doing a fine job with his training he has come a long way , and so handsome he is . Inertia is such a good dog.looking forward to more on Chop. And looking forward to his DNA.
Killing Eve, an excellent show choice!
Great episode as always Zak, looking forward to the next!
This so amazing how chop is building bond with you.❤❤ (I think ) He might think that this is his new family.
Sweet!
You are truly the best. And such a good communication
Have you thought about doing a series on raising a puppy to be a service/guide dog?
ooo that would be interesting but also unless he has experience training service dogs specifically and knowledge on service dog specific training methods it may be irresponsible to put something like that out there (given that service dog training is definitely different than regular dog training, since you're training medical equipment, and takes both a special dog and special trainer). as a service dog handler myself i'm certainly interested, but would prefer he not do it if he isn't confident he can do it right, both in actual methods and in sharing 100% accurate information on what service dogs are and what training and having one is like.
2:42 hahaha I CAN RELATE.
You and Bree are so patient. My dogs do not bark in the house mainly because it scares the heck out of me. I'm finding Chop harder to relate to than some of the other dogs you have trained, although I probably prefer him to Moira but he doesn't hold a candle to Inertia for me. It never ceases to interest me what people find appealing about different dog breeds. Maybe he will grow on me eventually.
It is natural for dog lovers to want to know how dogs feel. In fact, dogs communicate a lot with their whole body. Not only their tails and whines, but also their gestures and behaviors can tell you a lot about how they are feeling. For example, even gestures such as yawning can contain messages. Knowing the meaning behind each of these gestures may help you get closer to your dog!🐶🐶🐶🐕🐕🐕🐕

@@chuckeycheese3215 He has had training sessions of resource guaeding in all his series I think☺
💯
I really love and appreciate the fact that Zak shows every accident and improvement that chop did. This is my favorite dog training UA-cam channel, I've never have a dog before so this is really informative. I know what to expect and prepare in dog training.😁
Can you please make a video and/or series at some point, about working with desensitizing your dog to FIREWORKS in the weeks leading up to New Year's Eve?
PS. Thank you for everything you have taught me so far!
Victoria Stillwell (It's Me or the Dog) basically just arranged an irresistable treat e.g. cheese, bacon pieces etc., and when a firework went off she said 'yes' at that moment and fed the tidbit. She kept doing this throughout the round of fireworks. Essentially you cause the dog to associate the sound of fireworks with something really good happening. It's also helpful to do this at a fair distance from the actual fireworks, possibly indoors in a safe space. (And if your dog is too anxious to take treats, I can't help you! Make them a sofa den to hide inside of and crawl in there with them for a hug. :) )
Use UA-cam to play fireworks on very low volume during supper times. Gradually increase the volume over time. Feed pup in a space you can allow pup on days when fireworks will be set off. Stop getting excited yourself when fireworks go off. You do you just don't notice it. Your expecting pup to respond creates a greater likely hood pup will respond, vicious cycle. So don't react anymore, they simply are a part of the environment. Most dogs hate fireworks, they are loud and bright. Dogs don't see the range of colors we do so all the downside and none of the good. I often put my dogs back in the bedroom where they are used to chilling. Most mine never cared but my latest is more sound sensitive. I need to desensitize her.
@@BoundlessEyes Thank you :)
@@BoundlessEyes Thank you :)
am i the only one who got a barkbox ad ft zak at the beginning of this video loll
I needed this video for my 4-year-old dog, Moxie. She doesn't like socializing with new people, new dogs, or even going to new places, so she barks at everything. My 5-month-old dog, Baxter, is the complete opposite, though! Thanks Zak!
Chop is so gorgeous! I love him!
I'd love to take out a BarkBox subscription but I live in France. :( Those toys are so cool, my dogs would love them!
My dog is more out of control than this one. I took him to the SPCA as a last resort and they were going to put him to sleep. I ended up keeping him when I wasn't going to. He bites, barks, jumps, tears into skin and clothes, and does not listen. I need a miracle.
I hope you guys keep him. Inertia seems to be really happy with him.
Love to watch Inertia and Chop play.. He’s really trying to be nice to her💜💜💜💜
Chop flopping and playing extra-nice with Inertia is the sweetest thing I've seen on this channel yet ❤️
Holy... did Zak George just say no to a dog? I cant believe my eyes and ears! 😆
Love watching you guys work, you can really see Chop working through things in his head and the way he trusts you and leans against you is gorgeous. 💕
I have so many questions for you! First, the couches and console table at the house in Alaska, I love them, do you have a link where I could find them? I need a dog-hair friendly sofa! Second, this is my episode, the one I needed! My puppy is 8m, and potty trained fully, but not trained in house manners. But what I need is this episode with four children and a cat running around the house too. Training seems to take four times as long with kids because just when I think I have something trained, they reinforce the negative behavior again and we start over. Or I'm trying to focus on something, and then a brawl breaks out between a couple boys and my back is turned for a minute and she's on the table or stealing a shoe. I give her undivided attention during training sessions while they are at school, but she ends up penned up and barking when they are home. We need a breakthrough!
I''ll like too see more from Intertia!!! ... I watched all of the episodes and learn to train my dog Ahri with that series. I watched all George and Chop series too hahahaha ^^
I’d love to know what sofa you have. I’m currently furnishing a new place and need a leather sofa. Yours looks perfect!
OMG I STRUGGLEEEEEE WITH THIS SOOOO MUCH WITH MY YOUNGER ONE!!!!! AANNND NOT JUST OTHER DOGS BUT OTHER HUMANS AS WELL. So so so manyyyy friendly humans have patientlyyyy let us work on socializing him for hourssss at a time and it’s been months but still!!! Tried with toys, treats, play, pets everything!! Same with their dogs. Even if he does settle after a long time, it’s absolutely wishful thinking that he will befriend them!
This series is amazing and so down to earth. I am just enthralled with it. Fantastic viewing ! 😁
I am already waiting for the training , when Chop learnes not to get too excited , when other dogs walk by . ;-)
Great ep! I wonder if Chop is a strong sniffer and pulls along the trail of another dog. I mean - I know he pulls, but is it different with a fresh dog smell or other animal smell? :D
Bree was so calm about the news that Chop might've destroyed the couch. There was no drama in her voice when she said, "No buddy, you may not chew on our furniture." 😆 Cute.
My housemate's girlfriend has what I believe is a German Shepherd/Siberian Husky mix and he also contorts his body into the cutest, amazing, and shocking postures. Chop reminds me of this dog, expect the dog that lives here part-time is solid white. He is a gorgeous, funny, amazing canine clown.
You both are doing wonderful with Chop. He seems to be responding so well to all of the encouragement and love you guys shower him with. I am really enjoying watching his progress. Great job you guys! 😊
Very curious to see what kind of mix Chop is! I'm thinking there could be some Anatolian Shepherd!
I've got a heeler/GSD/chow mix that is hands down a herder! If people in the house are up moving around, she is circulating the exterior of the room, she lies down when people sit down. She is like my shadow or always placing herself in eye shot of me! I know this is in her nature so I allow it as long as she isn't in the way.
I do however need to work on getting her to stay out of the kitchen when I'm preparing food! 🤦😜
The Spider-Man themed bark box is adorable (but not nearly as adorable as Chop). Also I loved the come around command with Inertia! She is so well behaved- it’s incredible!
I absolutely love this series! I love how you're showing every detail that goes into training a dog, which not many trainers show!
As an owner of a lab myself, I have a question. I have been training my dog the 'leave it' command. I just started it today and it went pretty well. I put treats on his paw and he wouldn't even look at them until I command him again. But the problem itself lies there. He will listen to me as long as he knows I have treats with me. The moment he sees I no longer have them, he's back to his energetic form! And the strange thing is that whenever he's super excited, he would grab any random slipper in the house and run wildly with that in its mouth. And I dare you to leave your slipper with him for 5 minutes, and it'll be torn off to bits in seconds. I almost had a breakdown today begging him to leave the footwears in the house alone, but he would merely ignore me. Everyone is upset with his behavior and I can't let this continue :( So, if you got any tips regarding this, I'll be really glad you helped me out. 🙏
Labs are retrievers - play into the strengths and you will win.
All training takes TIME and REPETITION. Every day, every time, the same thing. Please don’t be discouraged after one day, week, month. Use the treats for a few days then taper off because they need to learn they’re not doing a trick, they are following a command and learning a behavior. Labs and Retrievers are smart and catch on quick, but they also catch on quick to the idea of “I’ll only do it for a treat.” Transferring the behavior to “I’m doing this because you said so,” is important. Your dog will get it soon. Our dog is 12 and we still have moments of “Bea, SIT, STAY!”, when almost always a hand signal and look are enough. Be patient and IGNORE what other people are saying, expecting, pressuring. This is about you and your dog and your relationship. Take time, repeat, repeat, repeat, it will work. Promise. (Also go to a thrift store and buy a bunch of slippers. When he decides to pick one of yours up, use the “Leave it” command and show him a thrift store slipper to exchange for it instead of a treat. Start using slippers to exchange for your slippers, then wean him off those. I believe he’ll grow out of the stage of doing this. Make sure he has several plush toys to enjoy as he seems to like squishy things, when he grabs your slippers don’t chase him or yell, just a firm Leave It command and show him another slipper or toy to exchange, Good Boy. I think he’ll catch on quickly.)
Our Treeing Walker Coonhound loves shoes and she'll steal them every chance she gets. Our solution? Manage her environment. The shoes aren't accessible anymore. On the rare occasion that she can poke her face into the basement door and snitch one, she's got pretty good "drop it" and "leave it" commands. Sure, she still runs off delightedly with them every now and again. So when she does that, we ignore it. She wants us to play. Chasing her makes it fun. So we don't! In just 3 weeks, we've seen a huge improvement. Keep at it, stay consistent, and it'll work!
Hi, leave it is a great command but it does take time. One thing about training with treats is that once you are sure they know the command, you'll want to mix up when they get treats instead of giving treats every time. (Keeps them guessing, and keeps the treat valuable.) When it comes to something like footwear or garbage, the most important thing is to set the dog up for success by making the things they want to get into unavailable. Find a place to put shoes where your dog can't get them, get everybody on the same page. That is the best way to get a dog not to do something: Make it hard/impossible for them to do it. If he has a shoe in his mouth, offer him an appropriate toy instead and make it as interesting as possible. Make sure the shoe is the boring option. I hope this helps.
@@emilyestelle7471 I trained my girl to bring me the socks when she picked them up. I would use the excited voice: have you got my sock?! She starts heading toward me: ohh thank you for that sock! She drops it in my hand: I hold it to my chest, excited voice: ohh Ilove that sock! She then follows me to the fridge to get a gold reward: Chee$$$e lol
Her sock hunting is a great trick at other ppls homes as well.
BOOM! Trained dog :D
Do you have any tips for dogs that react out of fear towards other dogs? My dog likes to play with small dogs, but he's terrified of big dogs.
Just guessing the advice here, but when Zak was socialising Inertia as a pup and tried to introduce her to a friendly but huge wolfhound and she hid, he arranged some more playdates with suitable medium large dogs to work her up to the wolfhound giant. :) Suitable playdates is important - think 1:1 play in a safe space rather than dog parks and off leash dogs bounding out of nowhere on walks.
Great videos!! I am going to start training my dog how you do it with love and patience 💜
Side note at 17:00 the TV CCs 🙈
Me too! I saw that. Lol
When you do training in Alaska could you spend some time focusing on how to get dogs to stop chasing wild animals? I live in Alaska and moose come in the fenced backyard sometimes in winter and my 15 lbs dog tries to charge them even after getting kicked once while I was in the yard with him. I'm not sure what to do, and there's not much info online about this issue. Love your videos, they're so helpful with my rescue pup.
This is so nice to see! I'm fostering a dog for my friend who is so hard to get the attention of when he focuses on something else and it's so hard. He'll bark a lot like Chop and will ignore us, even for high-prize treats. Thank you for this video.
This series hits me so hard because I rescued a husky mix while you were doing the george series. The similarities are blowing my mind. Mine was a stray before I got him and knew nothing of living with humans. Less than a year later I have him mushing like a champ. This was mostly due to you and your amazing videos. Thank you so much Zak and Bree!
Saw ya carrying a gallon of water, so I want to share. Depending on your dog's size, get two plastic containers. Fill one with water & cut the other one, saving the lower 1/3. Use that 1/3 as a dish. Slip it under the water bottle & carry together.
That's a great idea!!
The reaction to other dogs is what I'm really interested in learning. I have a mini chiweenie that has a Napoleon complex.
Love Chop! Can't wait to see his forever home.
This is so great to see Chop making progress. Slow and steady-as you said, distance and time really helps. It's always nice to see Chop and Inertia playing together. Have you found out what mix of breeds he is yet? Thank you so much for making these videos-they are SO helpful! This series in particular has been super! Keep up the great work, Zak!
Chop is a pretty awesome looking dog. Wonder what kind of mix he is.
chop is a kangal mix, i should know, i have one. they are not "lie down and relax" dogs, their job is to patrol and make sure everything is ok. also, he will probably not listen to come if other dogs are around, kangals are notoriously difficult to recall when there are distractions.
This was a great video!! My dog is similar to Chop in that she can be reactive towards other dogs too - but I notice for my dog it's only when she's restrained (on-leash). She reacts this way also when people directly approach her when she's on-leash. Would love to see if you have training for calming reactivity specifically in regards to being restrained. Will also continue watching this series to see if this training helps with my former street dog as well :)
You going to do a DNA test on Chop, it would be interesting to see what mix of pup he is
They have, but keeping us waiting for the rbig reveal 😊
In Zak’s live talk 2 days ago he said they don’t have it yet …. Village Dog?
I have dog, he is 7 years old, knows all comand u need, and still when he see other dogs he stop listen for any comand u say , sometimes it's so annoying
@zak george's dog training revolution chop is very cute can i want him now
Chop is doing great. Do you think he would do better as a sled dog, maybe for someone who does the sled dog races in Alaska. I think he’d be a good sled dog if he can get along with the other dogs. The ones I’ve watched on UA-cam are chained apart, so they can’t fight, but close enough to still say hi. But he would have to behave when on the sled dog line and all the dogs are together. Once in awhile, the dogs may have a disagreement but the owner is right on top of it to stop it. It doesn’t happen too often and I’m sure the good sled dog owners know how to train them. Just a thought because he’s so active and loves to run.
That howl when dogs walk away sounds like distress to me. Kind of “oh no, they are going”.
My Rin tin tin is so much like Chop being an outdoor dog
The more I think about it the more I feel like you kept Chop.
oooh i love killing eve hehe i hope chop had a good time watching that with you guys :D
around the minute 8 of the video what I would have done is #1 give more distance to chop, 2# make sure to have high value treats to mark and reward right when he sees the dogs but doesn't react and #3 go away by trowing a toy the opposite way. And like you said the goal is that chop doesn't react anymore when he sees dogs. but shortening the distance between chop the dogs must be done gradually and at his pace.
How many times a day do you train in a day and for how long is each training session?
