    Also, Chop's playing has improved dramatically. Starting at 5:12 to 6:04. He is so much more receptive to Inertia's comfort zone, and is exhibiting a lot of great play behaviors (calming signals, taking breaks, not being too rough, adjusting to her play style, play signals like loose body language and flopping down on the ground 5:54, and taking turns in different play positions like chasing and being chased). He does seem to be a bit anxious, or not as into play in this play session, disengaging a lot, showing a bit of anxious signals (scratching, sniffing, shaking off, a bit hesitant in some body language) but still seemed to have fun and make a lot of improvement.

    I love the use of the word "guardian" here 15:54, instead of "owner". Dogs have been scientifically linked to being very similar in terms of intelligence, emotional capacity, needs, and wants to 2-3-year-old human children. Human children are not "owned". They are guided, taught, and raised. They have guardians, parents, and/or caretakers. Just like dogs. Raising a child and raising a dog are very similar in many ways: they both need kind and clear guidance and lots of patience, support, and positive reinforcement.

      I prefer partner or I’m his human as we work as a team and he looks to me but he is not a child….he is canine I am human. Hence I am his HUMAN as a I am my child’s parent or my spouse’s wife….and he is my DOG as my daughter is my child and my spouse is my husband. I don’t own them but they are labeled to express their role in my life. So MY DOG is NOT expressing ownership it is labeling his actual true role in my life. It enforces the fact I NEED to respect his needs and my expectations as an animal….while using the very loose similarities in education of dogs and humans of any age. I’m not saying I use any averse methods, I’m saying that I do not want to risk missing out on learning all about the other aspects of how the CANINE brain works by strongly focusing on the similarities in the human brain and learning process. After all I wanted a dog for the magic of their different outlook on things.
      I think the down side of positive training is it is starting to blur the lines of human animal relationships. The aspect of HUMANE treatment, studies of intelligence, and emotional levels is becoming closer and closer to clouding the fact for the average owner that these are still ANIMALS. If we start to drift too far from that…..it can become another form of in humane treatment. Some of us over indulge our children a lot at times. Translated to a dog this could actually have dangerous results. Over indulgence in many forms and not meeting needs to do what is in their nature is a form of mistreatment.
      I am totally fascinated and captivated by the study of intelligence and emotional side to the animal as long as it is not so strongly compared to humans in an improper manner. In the ANIMAL behavioral form NOT the I see this as educating a child thing….as some novices can drift into.

      @@kellerayra7363 You are entitled to your own opinion, but science has spoken. I have heard this argument of "spoiling" dogs or treating them as children is wrong and unfair to them etc...We are not saying dogs ARE children, just that they are very SIMILAR cognitively and emotionally to children, and share a lot of the same needs and wants and guidance. People who think this way are missing the key point: The idea is not to treat dogs EXACTLY like human children. No one is saying to invite the dog to eat at the dinner table or dress them up for school everyday. We know that dogs and humans have their own unique species needs and instincts. The point is to recognize howsimilar dogs are to human children to both give them more respect and dignity, but also to guide the training and treatment of dogs by their humans. Pawrents can base a lot of their training and treatment and understanding of their dog on human child raising and educating. And, this idea of dogs being similar to children serves to prove why aversive training is useless and cruel.
      To your comment that dogs are ANIMALS: So are humans. This is likely why we have a lot of similarities. When supporting the view that dogs are a lot like children and should be treated accordinly, there is a lot of acknowledgment that dogs are a different species with some different needs, different wants, different ways of thinking, and different instincts. Like I said, the idea is not to ignore that fact, it's just to address the facts that dogs are very similar to human children, and therefore can be taught and raised and treated very similarily, but while also meeting their specific species needs.
      The fact is: dogs are very similar in terms of intelligence, emotional capacity, wants, needs, and they ways they learn to human children aged 2-3. Both dogs and children are dependents and require the parent to provide them with food, water, shelter, health care, affection, support, protection, and education. They think and behave in many similar ways, and learn using a lot of the same basic principles (operant conditioning, classic conditioning). Of course dogs and humans are different in some key ways, but they are also very similar in many ways. Part of being a dog guardian is making sure the dog's species needs are being met, but this can be equated to parents meeting the species needs of their human children. Dogs need to sniff, lick, chew, sleep, and exercise. Babies/young humans need to chew, exercise, sleep, and explore using their hands and mouths. Again, very similar.
      Also: to address your comment saying that those who support the dog-child similarity view and treat them similarly, are too focused to study and understand canines. This is an unfair and false statement. Many of us that subscribe to this view research the heck out of canine psychology, physiology, etc...Do not make such a claim without evidence. Many of those who believe in science and therefore support this view, are top tier canine behaviorists and trainer who have years of canine research under their belts. A lot of the similarities drawn between dogs and humans come from tons of research ABOUT DOGS, where findings where related and compared to humans.
      Studies have reflected that same areas of the brain light up in both dogs and humans when they see each other for example, and has revealed many other cognitive similarities. And I'll say this: I much rather see my dog as a child than as property: both because of my own morality and understanding but also because dogs are very similar to children.

    • @fewferfev
      @fewferfev 2 роки тому +1

      @@kat200214 Of course the reason dogs are similar to us is that they have been bred for certain traits that complement human needs. This can be fortunate or unfortunate according to the intelligence of the human. That's where we need the work done and the education of what it entails to have an animal in our family. They are much more intelligent than a 2 or 3 yr old though. And some of their innate intelligence is not even understood by us since we cannot relate to some of the wildness. I personally love living with the wildness and do see them as children at all. So, just my 2 cents but I think there's much more than space allows for this conversation. We all need to continue to learn from the life that we are surrounded by and not seek to make human life forms out of everything. We are human. And we are very limited in intelligence compared to creatures who are much better connected to the wild nature of all that is truly real. Animals are not people and people are not animals. But if you do your job well you will be a better human for the animals you choose to keep.

    • @kellerayra7363
      @kellerayra7363 2 роки тому

      My point was if your average dog owner hears child too much, and they don’t find the science interesting enough to incorporate it in their training with a good balance animal/ human they may end up taking the term child a little too literally when approaching their animals. If you look at some products out there and listen to advertising. It does not mention science very often. Nor does it explain in detail if it does. Companies profiting off of aiming at the “your pet and the concept of childlike intelligence” ….used in a broad sense. Why I used the statement blurring the lines and over indulgence. When talking about the science enthusiasts might want to think about their entire audience.
      Hence the possible growing need for behaviorists and trainers even some possible contributions to rescues.
      I understand the curiosity of the of intelligence and emotional parts of our canine counterparts or how our bonds and relationships work. What we have in common and how it can be used to benefit us both. It is why I chose a border collie….they are supposedly one of the greatest students when it comes to retention of the English language among other emotional similarities. Which I find more fascinating than any herding trials, agility, obedience competition, or fly ball.
      I completely respect the scientific findings while also being acutely aware that there are a number of humans that do not read between the lines of the statement “similar to a child” etc. And people are profiting while both humans and especially canines are getting hurt in some forms .My sons girlfriend’s family carries their dogs in baby Bjorne.
      Yes humans are animals but we are not canines. We are homo sapiens. I meant respect the canine. Again the average pet person would not delve that deeply into terminology.

    @kat200214 2 роки тому +11

    Awesome video! Love the leash walking part especially. Some important pointers/reminders for those who are working on leash walking or have a fully leash trained dog:
    1) Let the dog walk in front of you! It's a complete alpha/dominance myth that dogs need to walk at your side for walks, it's also to serve human convenience at the dog's expense. Maintaining human walking pace is hard for dogs for long periods of time: dogs naturally walk much faster due to their different structure. It's also insanely boring and frustrating as dogs cannot engage and explore their environment at your side properly, and don't get to exercise very much. Dogs need to have freedom of movement, and lots of ability to explore and sniff for their mental health and wellbeing. They have to ignore so many interesting scents and sights to stay at your side. Heeling for short periods of time for training or for getting through tricky situations like crossing a busy street is totally ok and normal, but dogs should not be at your side or heeling for more than a maximum of a few minutes at a time. Most of the walk should be with the dog in front of you, out to the side, or at your side if they prefer.
    2) Pulling is natural, leash walking is not: Some pulling, even in a fully trained dog is normal and OK! Dogs are not robots and machines, and some light occasional pulling or a sudden jerk everyone now and then is normal, and definitely not a reason to punish. (You should not punish your dog for any reason, scientific research by the AVSAB and others supports not using punishment or aversive tools, and only using force-free methods in all cases). Also, pulling (even a lot) is very normal in general. Dogs are not born knowing not to pull, walking on a leash and at your side is very unnatural and difficult to learn for dogs. We have to acknowledge that and be especially kind and understanding.
    3) Use a harness! Even light pressure on the sensitive neck has been shown to cause damage but also pain and discomfort. Collars can be uncomfortable due to their pressure on the throat, and possible restriction of breathing. This discomfort and pain can cause dogs to be stressed, have higher energy, and be distracted. Harnesses are much safer and usually more comfortable. Especially while training where a lot of pulling is expected, harnesses are crucial to protect your dog's throat and sensitive organs in the neck from damage. The harness is only a safety management device. It is not the tool that teaches the dog to walk nicely, but the training. shaykelly.co.uk/2021/07/06/should-mans-best-friend-be-led-by-the-neck/?fbclid=IwAR1uoW6gwIT6XntsxuT30oxWvmM6KMtyOxkhSct67Xo-kv-V9sS_ygQ5rrk
    4) Meet the exercise and mental stimulation needs before training many skills, especially leash walking. Walking on a short line like that one Chop is attached to during LLW sessions doesn't allow for much exercise or sniffing/engaging with the environment, so it's important to exercise your dog either off-leash or on a long line and let them sniff and engage with their environment for a while before asking for loose leash walking. This way, they are more receptive due to their needs being met, and you don't have to worry about not meeting their needs during your training. For example you can pause and wait for the dog to loosen the pressure and make eye contact, and not have to worry about them not getting their exercise. Make sure you reward a lot though!

      I was told once….it is a common misconception humans have that walking is a form of exercise to dogs. While actually it is actually a bonding exercise and boredom killer to explore sniff be a true dog for our animals getting out of the house. Exercise for the human yes. If you think about our exercise gets our heart rate up if we are truly exercising. A walk does not really meet that requirement for a dog…it’s not fast enough even if we walk our fastest. Unless our dog is very small or much larger or very overweight. Us running yes … walking no for your average mid to large breeds. That is why I allow my dog all over sniffing most of the walk with some leash work. Unless I need to be somewhere and don’t want him stopping to sniff the roses. During the winter he is always out front not pulling I don’t want to trip and fall on him and snow banks narrow sidewalks.
      Exercise for him is any form of activity that gets him really moving running stretching those legs out heart rate up. Building maintains muscle and balance to extend his life keep him sharp.

    You have been a life saver helping me learn how to communicate with my dog and train him!! I love how you narrate and talk for them and basically know what they are thinking and it just makes perfect sense when you explain it!
    My dog is awesome 75% of the time, he knows all his commands and cool tricks inside but outside sometimes he will go into crazy jumping/biting/barking fits and he will not take any interest in a toy or anything!! I try to redirect him but it doesn't always work and I have to get away from him or if I can grab him and put him inside I do that too... how can I get him to stop so we can play and train outside without a temper tantrum??

      Sounds like he has not enough excercise. Does he get at least two hours of walk/think/playtime a day? Try to get some energy out before leaving, and when you are outside, be boring until he calms down. Just stand or sit there, ignore him and wait. When he is a little calmer, start your walk

    Chop is a gorgeous hunk!! But what dogs breeds have contributed? Clearly can see the Husky tail and the German Shepherd face and coloring. But what is making those looooooooong legs and those ears flop? Had me stumped. But I think I have it..... Rottweiller. So that is my guess. I think I am going to win the prize. 🥳

    I had a German Shepherd that I tried for 3 MONTHS to teach down. Finally, I gently pulled one of his front legs forward and from then on he knew "down." He was a very tall dog and at the time I got him he was starting to develop hip problems so I don't think it was comfortable for him to do. As time passed I stopped asking him to do it at all, but in the beginning I just couldn't believe I couldn't teach him the cue. I physically showed him finally by pulling his leg forward against my better judgment, but it worked and I never had to do it again. I wouldn't have done it again even if it hadn't worked the first time, but it was an interesting experience!

    Have you ever tried a double ended leash with a harness with a front and back clip? Using it kind of like a set of reins seems to help bring dog and owner into better balance and at least make the pudding more bearable.

    Training my 9 month old dog has been tough. She has separation anxiety, is hyperactive and for some reason she’s goes ballistic when she sees strangers and other dogs unless we are at the dog park. Walking is a chore, she pulls like she’s trying to escape a kidnapping and tries to charge at strangers and other dogs. Her bark is very intimidating and she growls as well which has made me super self conscious as a dog owner. I love her but sometimes I just get so discouraged. I don’t have any prior experience training a dog and have almost given up but hopefully these videos will help. Hopefully 🙏🏾

Follow op question, how sore is your shoulder after these sessions with Chop? haha

    We have two German Shepherds that we need to put more time into when walking them: they pull and are highly reactive to other dogs (in an excited, yet very "in your face" way, which comes off as aggressive). We have always walked them together. Do you suggest we walk them separately to train them to be calmer and to pull less on walks? As if right now, they have not succeeded much in understanding that we don't want them to pull and we want them to have a calmer reaction to other dogs (even with use of treats).

    If I understand correctly, him pulling means he finds other things more rewarding than what you have. So why not at least make him work to get access to the environmental rewards? Like sitting, looking back at you, etc. before he's allowed to check out new things.
    Edit: in retrospect, ZG is already doing some version of what I was suggesting

I now use a chain collar as a backup of the harness. I would love to teach her that she isn't Houdini, and just take a walk without all of the stress and worry. Can anyone suggest, please. 🦋❓🦋❓🦋❓🦋

  • @Ben_Neill

    When working with down, I always suggest two tips when guiding the behavior. 1) Keep the treat (or your hand) close to their nose while moving straight down, keeping tight to their chest (not outwards) 2) When the down is almost to position, keeping the guidance close to the nose and stretching them out by pulling your hand away from them, closer to you along the ground. Shouldnt plop them into place :)

    Zak , help! Our 9 month old , 60# shepherd husky is a good boy on leash until he sees a rabbit then he takes off at such a high rate of speed he can actually pull me over. We live in a rural desert area so we have abundant wildlife. If I see the rabbit before him we can do “leave it “ with minimal pulling but if he sees it first it’s game on ! He does have a very high prey drive . He loves FastCAT. My trainer is suggesting a prong collar to prevent me becoming injured in a fall but I have never used a prong collar in my 71 years so I don’t want to start now and I am afraid he would actually be injured. I have watched a tons of videos but I am not making progress. His morning sniffari is his favorite part of the day . What should I do? Thanks
