Wow I can’t believe the stress tolerance of this owner, all of that barking would drive even the most patient person insane. By decreasing her barking by even a fraction of a percent you just improved this guy’s quality of life a thousand fold.
@@videogames9972did you miss the part where the guy said a lot of female German sheperds have this behaviour? I'm sure the owner could've done more research into it but putting all the blame on him seems unfair and ignorant.
what actually is really impressive is how prince trusts you dude.. he has a hyper active and mildly aggressive dog barking at him and all he does is look at you when you give commands... its actually beyond impressive
@@myemails870that's definitely not all, Prince is a very naturally intelligent and well tempered dog. Even very well trained dogs could respond very differently in this situation, given just how overwhelming this GS was. But training does absolutely play a huge role as well.
Non-stop barking drives me nuts! I feel for this guy!!! I have a pit bull who doesn't like people walking in front of the house, so she will stand at the window and bark. She is a good girl and very easy to train, so I taught her 'inside voice". When I give her the command, she goes from barking loud to barking under her breath When she just can't contain herself, she will grumble all the way up the stairs to try and get away with barking upstairs. She is funny, If I have to give the command again she usually keeps it down, but if she knows she "has to" bark, sometimes she will put herself in her kennel. Almost like putting herself in time out.
Something interesting I noted - after Prince corrected here (and she stopped barking) she had her tongue out panting. I guess she couldn't do that while she was barking all the time, but it's a pretty clear demonstration that something changed in that dogs brain. Great job as always to you both!
@@hotbread1004and someone can correct me if I’m wrong, but I’d definitely say this is anxiety induced panting based on “tail up curiosity”. I can only assume the anxiety comes from the idea that this was her first moment where Prince corrected her into a spot where she instantly knew she was now no longer the dominating, in your face alpha, but now the submissive beta. It’s kind of like a school bully that loves to intimidate and then gets that dose of reality and instantly calms down.
@@kevinexline5392 the alpha and beta thing has been disproven ... I cant believe people still are dumb enough to believe a false study of wolves. Not to mention that dogs developed a whole different structure. Dog trainers who believe that are trash lol
@@GayTruckDriver agreed. When my father stopped working our farm, our kelpie sheep dog basically went mad from not having anything to do any more. It was really sad. I always tell people not to get working dog breeds if they can’t run them until they drop every day. Otherwise they and the dog are going to have a difficult time.
The main issue is people insisting on buying working breeds that need jobs, purpose and ways to release their energy, but their own family lifestyle just isn't able to provide what is needed. People should be picking the breed of their potential dog based on how it will fit into the family's energy levels and lifestyle, instead of just going with what they think is most cool.
I had a few clients who came to me because the border collie husky mix was restless and acting out in their. Studio apartment. Why did they get that dog
I can tell you from a GSD owner’s perspective, they are a high maintenance dog when they are puppies. You have to train them early and often. Mine is 7 and if I lapse, I see things that may grow out of control. I get compliments all the time about how well behaved he is. He is well behaved because he is well trained. Same goes with kids! Haha
Prince’s temperament was AMAZING, I can’t even imagine a PERSON staying SO stable and good spirited ALL the way through this, even AFTER correcting her it was like nothing even happened, totally content and happy and at peace. It actually brings tears to my eyes, at moments, in shear respect and admiration for him, not just seeing it as a dog but an admirable quality even for a human. Amazing!
He’s also a male against a female. As little puppies with 0 training whatsoever, males often give up to females just to let them win. They know they’re stronger, but their instinct is to be gentlemen. They can be aggressive male to male, with no training, and females can aggressive towards males, but a male dog would not wanna hurt a female, ever. Correct? Yes. Attack? Nooo, never. I was out with my male GS on a beach, lots of dogs there. One in particular, a female, was almost psychotic. She was a Belgian shepherd, she tried attacking my dog when he was in reach. My dog who has 0 issues claiming a territory and showing dominance was sooo confused. He didn’t even bark, he jumped out and looked at her with pure confusion- what do I do? She’s a female, I can’t hurt her!
That's quite an imagination you have there. No employee works for affection because they have bills to pay, and the utilities don't stay on if you offer them a hug.
Omg I thought I was the only one. Just had a huge discussion about this with someone online that insisted their backs were SUPPOSED to be roachy and that's how the breed was originally supposed to look. :/ what is wrong with people.
I applaud this owner for taking the time to work through her unique behavioral challenges! It's clear he loves her and wants her to have a full life. So happy to see that!! 😍
The owner probably has her locked in a cage 16 hours per day and that’s how she ended up this way 🙄 90% of modern dog problems are due to modern people doing stupid modern things like isolating their dog in tiny cages.
@@PumpkinWitch1her hip, back and legs really look unhealthy. Sure has hip dysplasia and this can be immensely painful for a dog and leads to aggression and irrational behavior as well.
@@OakwiseBecomingYou have no idea what this owner's story is. Joel has a video that was made for people like you. It's called “This is not the channel for shaming the owners.” And he means it. How in the world did your mind come up with that reason about this dog? That was not a question, but a statement of “Huh? What the Hell?”
I really wish that there was better education around working dogs. We have all these creatures who were, for thousands of years, born to do specific things and now that all that is forgotten they're expected to just laze around the house like a toy and anything else is seen as unwanted behavior when the owner is usually the one who didn't bother thinking about the needs of the animal they got. Not saying that's the specific situation here, but once she's calmed somewhat she definitely needs something to focus on.
it's very interesting that she's treating Prince like a sheep lol Once Joel pointed out her being wired for work but "not knowing what to work for" it became really clear. She's just treating everything and everyone, especially the other dogs walking and running around her, like a herd of sheep, barking to get everyone in place and obsessively watching a following some object of her attention but not getting any sense of purpose or completion out of these engrained behaviours in her, for these subconscious tasks, seems like. I'm no dog expert, so I could be completely wrong, but that's what it looked like. Very fascinating. Makes me think how so many breeds are potentially rly ill-fitted to be just random home pets for random families , unless the owners really have the whole environment for them that's appropriate to their dog's needs and special patters
Exactly! She has a deep instinct to work and herd that has now become an obsession since she wasn't given the proper outlet, training or (biggest issue) boundaries around what she naturally wants to do - no one is cooperating and following her directions, it's driving her nuts, poor girl! I have a friend who's family breeds and trains herding dogs, they had one that was born with some kind of heart defect so he couldn't safely do the training to become a "real" stock dog; they tried to keep him happy and raise him in the home, keeping him separate and away from the livestock, etc. but as you can guess...he quickly became obsessive and controlling of everyone's movements, nipping ankles, and BARKING like a lunatic (if you watch herding teams, while the dogs are working a lot of them bark constantly, especially super high energy ones), just like this girl. Very sad, he didn't know what to do with himself or appropriately express his natural instincts...but thankfully its turned out alright for him! He went to live with the owner of a rescue for pregnant dogs that come from Mexico (I help deliver pups when they get a mama with special needs/disability that makes it a high-risk birth, so I get to see him those times), my friend had visited the rescue and the dog was with her that day and somehow or another it was figured out that he LOVES puppies, his demeanor completely changed and he was so gentle and attentive that even the moms didn't mind him around the pups, and he fell in love with the woman who owns the place - so she agreed to take him in and he immediately found his 'job' as a (we call it) Special Forces Puppy Nanny, the last word in high-security puppy care.. he takes his job very seriously 😂 he gets to herd and guard pups 24hrs a day, he's super happy doing what he was born to do just on a muuuch smaller scale from livestock😅. Shows what can happen when we fulfill a dog's natural needs!!
This is super duper common with GSDs. NOt all of them but many seem to need a job of some kind and if they don't receive expectations and "orders" from the humans they'll find something to do on their own. I've made everything my GSD does into a "job" by treating all desirable behavior as his "duty", including settling down and relaxing. He's extremely good at adapting to new situations because I reinforced "adapting to new situations" as a job too lol
My Pyrenees Annie needed a job and my mother's family wouldn't give her one. She traveled with me eventually as my guard and shadow. I lived in a camper van at the time and we went everywhere walking, hiking, swimming. She needed a job on top of the exercise. One day, as a puppy she asserted herself as my guard in front of a cop. I was lucky the cop liked dogs and simply stepped back from us while he talked but I didn't want to rely on luck.
And my friends think i'm crazy for letting their dogs correct my dog. Her whole demeanor changed as soon as Prince opened his mouth. Beautiful work yet again.
This is what's going to happen in our society with men vs. women. Men have been calm and lenient with women annoyance until men will reach the breaking point.
One of my sister’s dogs is really good about giving corrections. She’s told me that some people mistake it for aggression, which is crazy to me. He very clearly isn’t an aggressive dog and often tolerates a lot before resorting to a correction.
Gotta be careful with that though. Your friends thinking your crazy for it is a valid response, since it's pretty risky if their dogs aren't properly trained since they have a chance of actually harming your dog instead of just correcting the behavior through warnings
One of the best sessions I saw... This is exactly the kind of difficult dog where you and Prince really shine as a team, delivering wonderful progress in just a few tens of minutes! People not familiar with your work would call this impossible. Yet here we are. Thank you for all that you are doing for all the dogs and their owners.
Loved the “Happy End”, I mean just to see that this dog is able to change her behavior is already a big and great result, I’m really glad for her owner 🙏🏽🐾 Also, congrats for the great job camera person, the angles and everything were perfectly captured and the effort (running behind the dogs lol) is very appreciated 😎
That's crazy and what patience Prince has. We had two Border Collies and when one passed away, the other one stopped barking (she never really barked much to begin with but would join in when our other dog barked). She went almost a year before we heard a peep out of her. She barked because we left her outside too long and she wanted back in (and it was only one quick bark). I think in the remaining eight years of her life, she barked less than 20 times. Someone would ring our doorbell and she would get up and just stare at the door until we answered it. Now we have two puppies who whine and bark all of the time which is driving us bonkers.
It is so nice to see people in the comments not throwing a little hissy fit because you let your dog do his thing and teach the other a lesson. That's how it should be. Well done, man. Love these videos of prince. He's so awesome!
I feel for Prince, the number of "crazy" dogs he has to face 😅🤦🏽♂️ Prince's correction did the job and solved the case, I loved it so so much! ❤👌🏻 Question though, why did you intervene to stop Prince? I mean, don't you think that Prince knows when enough is enough? Thanks for your great work 🙌🏽 Love from Brussels ❤✊🏽
This is just an assumption, but I would guess that it's for te benefit of the humans, so that mom, or dad don't freak out over it. It does look, and sound pretty scary.
Don’t feel bad for Prince, he’s lucky to have a job and he’s good at it. It’s all the working dogs with no job and no purpose or outlet that I feel sorry for.
I dont think this dog wouldve been able to get through this without Prince. Sometimes this is what is required. ETA: its almost like she was surprised that the 'object' of her obsession could also turn to her and tell her to knock it off. She was like 'huh???????’
Yes, that last comment of yours is so right. As a shepherding breed it is displaying behaviour a working sheep dog would towards livestock. The day a Kelpie or a Collie receives a seeing to or backs down because a sheep asserts itself is the day that dog hangs up its spurs! Once again, we've bred this into these dogs and it is our job to anticipate this behaviour is going to come out and we need to teach the dog the difference between a herd animal and a playmate!
Joel you are blessed with such an intelligent dog, I’m aware your a fab dog trainer, but having that intelligence with your dog makes life so much easier with their training!!
I'm sure adequate exercise, socialization and very good nutrition help bring the intelligence level up a bit. Seems like some of the visiting dogs are not well cared for/ neglected in some way, no matter their owners tax bracket
Wow Prince has an incredibly high tolerance. Totally fair correction from him and it snapped her out of it!! Really great video and amazing transformation. I felt relief for that dog who seemed to be significantly less anxious with the other dogs later in the video.
All Doberman's are awesome dogs. It's the only breed my wife and I, have ever raised. Abby is sitting next to me as I write this comment. She never leaves my side. And Charlie is always with my wife. Both, sleep on our bed with us. Just love the breed. Dobie's are so intelligent, loyal, loving. However, the breed is high energy. So you need to let the play, run around, etc.
Amazing to watch. Brought tears to my eyes. Prince not running off straight away as usual intrigued me, then you explained why....makes so much sense. What an amazing dog is your Prince.
Excellent results on her. She's not the finished product in one day, but her life will get better as she improves. My rescue Staffy/Boxer cross is 95% improvement due to Beckman's methods and able to meet dogs now and say hello, considering I could not with 50ft of a dog without extreme leash reactivity and literally doing acrobatic flips, even at that distance. He is still not perfect and although fine with most dogs now, I've noticed that Bull Staffs and big dogs with long fur coats still trigger him slightly and require a slower introduction and corrections still. He had a challenge today, meeting two young and very highly excitable Staffys today, but with corrections to remain calm and after about 2 minutes of slow introduction, he was able to meet them. Great video Beckman.
It's the whole concept of striking your bully...once they realize they are able to be hit, they see change. Prince knows his job...be a dog but when helping you he takes over when that push is needed. He was so patient than finally just said "I've had enough and you need correction." Keep up the good work.
Prince gave her a little bit of a spanking what she needed. She is not the boss on campus she needs to realize that. She has not always the boss! Well done again Prince you are the man!
"Aw poor baby, she's scared." That's a huge misread; the dog isn't backing away, tail and ears are up and she is fixated on Prince to a T. This is like watching a toddler shout and point fingers at another toddler.
I think others have said this (and you’ve done this once or twice)…. I would love to hear from owners how things are going for them after they’ve been back home working on their own.
You could tell how Prince had used everything he had when he did the quick shake the stress out move, wasn't much later he lashed out. It's impressive how much Prince shows his feelings and where his thoughts are, you can tell how he's thinking in a lot of the video.
Brilliant highlight of the differences in high prey drive breed like Shepherds and fun goofy guys like Prince. They all love to run but high drive dogs need to learn to stop and enjoy without needing to control everything and everyone. It's hard work sometimes. Prince taught this girl a great lesson. Well done. Hopefully with your insights her training makes a big difference.
Looks like she just needed another dog to show her the hyper energy and noise wasnt okay. At that point her mad energy and fixation broke and she discovered a new mode she can work in, a little calmer. Excellent to watch this in real time, and your socialisation exercises were fascinating too! You guys are great.
The way this video ends up made me feel great, like a dog success story. You can really see her start to improve and be a happier dog. The owner is obviously trying to help this pretty girl.
This is an amazing video. Prince's correction was so accurate. The GSD seemed to undrestand immedieately that her behaviour was not appropriate . And after that, I found that Joel also provided appropriate and effective manners toward the GSD.
Like any bully from any species, they only do it until they cannot. You are bloody good Mr Beckman, I have learned a lot from your videos and have applied those lessons to our reactive Rhodesian Ridgeback. Thank you.
Zak George is calling the cops! Love the video. My GSD pup was corrected by two older GSDs and there’s been such an awesome change with him. He wasn’t this wild but it was a great teachable moment for sure.
This girl looks and acts very similar to my King Shepherd! We've worked with ours a lot, but the barking is really something that we have always had to work with her on. Love your videos!!
My dog is actually a cross between a Great Pyrenees, Malamute, and German Shepherd. King Shepherd is absolutely a breed, but thanks for your concern dude.
it's not like most "breeds"are intermixed lolz. just look a lbradoodle... and often times the bastards dogs you are beter off with cause less health problems@@Spr1ggan87
When the Shephard trotted away from Prince it was almost a miracle. Your explanation of how her brain was working - how Prince shut that off and allowed her to run on a different track really helped me understand what you were trying to do. I'm so lad her papa looked for someone to help her - I pray he was able to maintain her progress.
It brings me in tears to see how we are just like them and how we humans need to call out eachother to progress in live, is beautiful what are you doing helping everyone, blessings ✌🏽💛
Funny how Prince giving the correction......produced a kind of reality check......like when a child jams its fingers in a door for the first time, and the danger is realized.
I am honestly training myself a "Prince" out of my next dog mostly because of these videos. I've dedicated my life to giving challenging dogs a second chance, but choosing that one puppy to assist in that will be so much more effective than just doing it alone. I believe I'll be able to help loads more dogs this way.
There is always a little bit of a gamble when getting a puppy because its personality isn’t fully formed. You might have better odds selecting a dog that already displays the traits that you are looking for, it could even be a young dog i just think it’s risky getting an 8week old animal with a specific intention and is worth thinking about an old pup/dog.
@@krystal6137 You can definitely see the basic temperament even in a puppy, I also have selected a breed with generally good social tendencies with other dogs. I will ask for a puppy with confident behavior because social skills can be taught, but basic temperament is set. I will also be asking for the breeders' help with choosing the right puppy. I have three breeders I will be contacting with details of what I'm looking the puppy for. I am not a puppy person, so I considered getting a 1-3 years old dog, but I want to maximize the use of the crucial socialization period. There's very few adult dogs available where I live that aren't available for one of the typical reasons for rehoming (but mostly behavioral issues - which is why I'm on this path). Also, it would honestly be nice to, for once, have a dog that I trained from the beginning and not patch up on top of other people's training. Last time I had a dog with fully-me training was when I was a kid.
There is a German shepherd at our dog park that is just like this dog. Comes racing up to dogs who are chasing their balls and barks and nips at them. It makes it very unenjoyable to be around. And my dog, if provoked will do a "prince" and it may end badly.
Prince is peeing for a reason - it shows how little he respects her (the GSD) Prince is magnificent and a true representation of a well trained, socialised Dobe!
My sister has a difficult doodle. She’s very under socialized and stubborn. My sister believes the solution is getting a second dog to play with the first. And I’m begging her to make dog friends before adding a dog sibling.
Your videos are FASCINATING!! Good on these owners for realizing they need help, they've not only made their lives better but they've made their dog's life BETTER! Also, Prince is beautiful and I love your breakdown of what he is thinking!
Snap. I have a dog who was exactly like this. Her Savior was Was an excellent trainer and his dog Pumba. Pumba was basically Prince's doppelgänger in spirit and was the most playful doberman I've ever met. It took around 3 years before Simmie would be comfortable being within the vicinity of another dog. During those three years not only did she undergo rigorous training, I had to undergo rigorous training and make changes to who I am. Because of a rather nasty up bringing by the previous owners, I was extra sympathetic with her thinking that showing her love and care and being extra gentle with her would show her that people and other dogs could be trusted, but after a few weeks I knew I needed help. I am by nature quite meek and a bit of an introvert so my trainer out of his way to make me a more assertive and confident person. For example one day we went to a park, and he made me yell at the top of my voice. At first I was quite conscious of what the other people in the park would think, but he kept yelling word of encouragement at the top of his voice and I must say it worked. Then came the part where I had to show her tough love when she show any form of aggression in the form of short, sharp verbal reprimand. With dogs you need to be sincere with your reprimand which is why I had to build my assertiveness first. One thing that I did notice was because she was so insecure, once I was able gain her trust initially, it was quite easy to build a strong bond with her quite quickly. This helped a lot as she would go out of her way to keep me happy and this worked to our favour as the moment she would show any form of aggression, I would make it verbally clear that I was not happy with her. She would go out her way to make me happy by nuzzling against me and rubbing her head against my head. I would then shower her with praise with a lot of jumping around and playing which would show her both approval from my part as well as a form of distraction from the stimulus of her aggression. It did not happen overnight but eventually she started ignoring people and other dogs walking past her. During this time the people in the neighbourhood had noticed this change as well (She had built up quite a reputation initially) and they would also help by chatting with me for a couple of minutes while Simmie sat next to me while I gave her treat after treat. We slowly cut down on the intensity of treats till she would comfortably next to me without any treats at all. I can now walk past any dog or person and would not have a care in the world. she is not the type of dog that would just rush up another dog and start playing but that is her choice and I respect that. The main thing is she doesn't tense up. She loves to have zoomies on grass and now she will have her zoomies while other dogs and people are walking or running past her. I've had dogs in the past but it was only after having Simmie that I believe I really learned the behavoural aspect of dogs in general thanks to an extremely patient trainer. The biggest thing I have learnt is no two dogs are alike and training should be in real time based on your dog's behaviour. Just because one particular way of training works for one dog does not mean it will work for another. You need to adapt your training according to the dog's behaviour and you need to be quick with your response. responding 20 seconds too late is as good as not responding at all. Your techniques and how you adapt your training according to the dog's actions brings back memories and I really appreciate the help you provide to people who need it. Simmie is just over 9 years old now and we are still learning.
I usually hate " intro's " but this one was perfect. Especially the wording referencing the predictable thing of prince being the saving grace, but still giving hope to the audience.
You are so smart fr. Ur knowledge of dog behavior is incredible. I don’t expect most owners to be at ur level but most should have a basic understanding especially when it comes to breed. I love my friend but she bought a german shepherd when she lives in a STUDIO apartment. Not a wise decision 😅
Yeah not the best decision but also depends on the dogs energy level I have 2 working lines and my female shepherd could easily live in apartment she’s very calm and relaxed surprisingly
Not especially for her, i wouldn't like to be in her shoes, Imagine having to Walk on the eggs because otherwise your dog could bark and the neighbours might not like It and this Is Just an example
I call an accidental bite, with an excited, barking, non aggressive crazy dog… “OOPS! “Caught a tooth”. “It’s Not a bite”… but still not ok. Joel is my favorite! Refer his videos to everyone (when appropriate) if we witness behavioral issues with “owners”… heehee… And I always tell people Joel’s partner is a beautiful Doberman named “Prince”. When I help people out (I’m not a trainer, but just like to help out) I use the techniques I’ve learned from Joel and Prince… My Doberman Ziggy is a pretty special partner too. Thanks Joel and Prince 🐕🙏👍
I once had a dog who barked a lot. She had no control over it. I read a tip to first train the dog to bark on command then they can learn to stop barking. Not that she really ever stopped but she tried and her barking turned into a hiccups sound. It’s not the case with that dog though.
Prince was showing some pretty clear signs of 'you're stressing me out' too, with the yawn, the shaking off. Girly just was not paying attention to anything but her own machine gun mouth
I always want to be entirely honest, so I'll say that there's been times I've been skeptical of certain things I've seen on this channel, albeit rarely. I always return though because I see how it works in every video. You really have a solid sense of a dog's emotions and it's very impressive to see you and Prince work. Don't stop doing what you do!
If Prince keeps this up, you'll have to change the channel name to Prince's Dog Training.
That’s actually a good idea! Can a dog be a legally recognized employee??
Yeah, Joel’s gonna be out of a job!
Beckman's Dog's Training
😂 Ya he is a great dog
@@arturjaroszewicz8424No, because Joel will still have to deal with (what sometimes is) the worse : training the dogs’ owners 😉😁 (just joking 😉)
Wow I can’t believe the stress tolerance of this owner, all of that barking would drive even the most patient person insane. By decreasing her barking by even a fraction of a percent you just improved this guy’s quality of life a thousand fold.
not to mention the hearing loss that comes with listening to constant barking! definitely saved him from hearing aids later on, lol
🖤
I agree - her barking is honestly psychotic - her barking is extremely anxiety inducing and she seems like she’s under enormous stress all the time.
nah, the reason the dog is like that is due to the owner's bad behavior and reinforcement of bad behavior.
@@videogames9972did you miss the part where the guy said a lot of female German sheperds have this behaviour? I'm sure the owner could've done more research into it but putting all the blame on him seems unfair and ignorant.
what actually is really impressive is how prince trusts you dude.. he has a hyper active and mildly aggressive dog barking at him and all he does is look at you when you give commands... its actually beyond impressive
I love that look he has is almost like saying "well if you think this lad is okay to be with I'll trust you"
Prince is such a brilliant and sweet dog.
Prince and the owner! Both parties playing extremely well
Every time, I am just so amazed at Prince and the level of maturity and empathy he has. That is an incredibly intelligent dog.
In Lak'Ech Ala k'in 🙏
Dobies are the best!
Dobermans are stupid smart
well trained thats all.
@@myemails870that's definitely not all, Prince is a very naturally intelligent and well tempered dog. Even very well trained dogs could respond very differently in this situation, given just how overwhelming this GS was. But training does absolutely play a huge role as well.

Yes as well panting if they aren't hot is also an anxiety response too
@@hotbread1004and someone can correct me if I’m wrong, but I’d definitely say this is anxiety induced panting based on “tail up curiosity”.

She was working without knowing why, workersdogs are hard, they need a purpose.
@@GayTruckDriver agreed. When my father stopped working our farm, our kelpie sheep dog basically went mad from not having anything to do any more. It was really sad. I always tell people not to get working dog breeds if they can’t run them until they drop every day. Otherwise they and the dog are going to have a difficult time.
The main issue is people insisting on buying working breeds that need jobs, purpose and ways to release their energy, but their own family lifestyle just isn't able to provide what is needed. People should be picking the breed of their potential dog based on how it will fit into the family's energy levels and lifestyle, instead of just going with what they think is most cool.
I had a few clients who came to me because the border collie husky mix was restless and acting out in their. Studio apartment. Why did they get that dog
I have never seen Prince just stand like a statue as soon as he came from the deck....thank you for breaking this down❤ Prince is so good at his job❤️
You see the trust he has in Joel! 😍
@@lulumoon6942 Absolutely 💯
I can tell you from a GSD owner’s perspective, they are a high maintenance dog when they are puppies. You have to train them early and often. Mine is 7 and if I lapse, I see things that may grow out of control. I get compliments all the time about how well behaved he is. He is well behaved because he is well trained. Same goes with kids! Haha
I wish there were trainers like this in my country... my gsd is also reactive but no bark, he will just lunge
Prince’s temperament was AMAZING, I can’t even imagine a PERSON staying SO stable and good spirited ALL the way through this, even AFTER correcting her it was like nothing even happened, totally content and happy and at peace. It actually brings tears to my eyes, at moments, in shear respect and admiration for him, not just seeing it as a dog but an admirable quality even for a human. Amazing!
He’s also a male against a female. As little puppies with 0 training whatsoever, males often give up to females just to let them win. They know they’re stronger, but their instinct is to be gentlemen. They can be aggressive male to male, with no training, and females can aggressive towards males, but a male dog would not wanna hurt a female, ever. Correct? Yes. Attack? Nooo, never.
I was out with my male GS on a beach, lots of dogs there. One in particular, a female, was almost psychotic. She was a Belgian shepherd, she tried attacking my dog when he was in reach. My dog who has 0 issues claiming a territory and showing dominance was sooo confused. He didn’t even bark, he jumped out and looked at her with pure confusion- what do I do? She’s a female, I can’t hurt her!
Imagine owning a company with your #1 employee works not for $, but affection. That's Prince!❤
Princes gets treats
That's quite an imagination you have there. No employee works for affection because they have bills to pay, and the utilities don't stay on if you offer them a hug.
.... the comment above mine is unironically hilarious
Her sloped back breaks my heart..
Omg I thought I was the only one.
Just had a huge discussion about this with someone online that insisted their backs were SUPPOSED to be roachy and that's how the breed was originally supposed to look. :/ what is wrong with people.
@@Lizziegurl209 you can tell how young someone is based off these sorts of nonsensical arguments. :( it's sad...
@thatonekid9400 unfortunately they were actually a long time breeder/show handler......just contributing to the problem
Prince is absolutely amazing, you could tell he was analysing the dog bit by bit, absolutely incredible intelligence.
I applaud this owner for taking the time to work through her unique behavioral challenges! It's clear he loves her and wants her to have a full life. So happy to see that!! 😍
That "unique behavior" looks like an ebreed behavior
The owner probably has her locked in a cage 16 hours per day and that’s how she ended up this way 🙄 90% of modern dog problems are due to modern people doing stupid modern things like isolating their dog in tiny cages.
@@PumpkinWitch1her hip, back and legs really look unhealthy. Sure has hip dysplasia and this can be immensely painful for a dog and leads to aggression and irrational behavior as well.
I hope her owner takes her to the vet to get that checked out.
@@OakwiseBecomingYou have no idea what this owner's story is. Joel has a video that was made for people like you. It's called “This is not the channel for shaming the owners.” And he means it. How in the world did your mind come up with that reason about this dog? That was not a question, but a statement of “Huh? What the Hell?”
“And give her a treat for being the best girl in the world” that’s the best thing I’ve ever heard from him that’s so sweet ❤
She seems like a really sweet dog who's just been jobless for too long. Great work as always 😊
I really wish that there was better education around working dogs. We have all these creatures who were, for thousands of years, born to do specific things and now that all that is forgotten they're expected to just laze around the house like a toy and anything else is seen as unwanted behavior when the owner is usually the one who didn't bother thinking about the needs of the animal they got. Not saying that's the specific situation here, but once she's calmed somewhat she definitely needs something to focus on.
it's very interesting that she's treating Prince like a sheep lol Once Joel pointed out her being wired for work but "not knowing what to work for" it became really clear. She's just treating everything and everyone, especially the other dogs walking and running around her, like a herd of sheep, barking to get everyone in place and obsessively watching a following some object of her attention but not getting any sense of purpose or completion out of these engrained behaviours in her, for these subconscious tasks, seems like. I'm no dog expert, so I could be completely wrong, but that's what it looked like. Very fascinating. Makes me think how so many breeds are potentially rly ill-fitted to be just random home pets for random families , unless the owners really have the whole environment for them that's appropriate to their dog's needs and special patters
Exactly! She has a deep instinct to work and herd that has now become an obsession since she wasn't given the proper outlet, training or (biggest issue) boundaries around what she naturally wants to do - no one is cooperating and following her directions, it's driving her nuts, poor girl! I have a friend who's family breeds and trains herding dogs, they had one that was born with some kind of heart defect so he couldn't safely do the training to become a "real" stock dog; they tried to keep him happy and raise him in the home, keeping him separate and away from the livestock, etc. but as you can guess...he quickly became obsessive and controlling of everyone's movements, nipping ankles, and BARKING like a lunatic (if you watch herding teams, while the dogs are working a lot of them bark constantly, especially super high energy ones), just like this girl. Very sad, he didn't know what to do with himself or appropriately express his natural instincts...but thankfully its turned out alright for him! He went to live with the owner of a rescue for pregnant dogs that come from Mexico (I help deliver pups when they get a mama with special needs/disability that makes it a high-risk birth, so I get to see him those times), my friend had visited the rescue and the dog was with her that day and somehow or another it was figured out that he LOVES puppies, his demeanor completely changed and he was so gentle and attentive that even the moms didn't mind him around the pups, and he fell in love with the woman who owns the place - so she agreed to take him in and he immediately found his 'job' as a (we call it) Special Forces Puppy Nanny, the last word in high-security puppy care.. he takes his job very seriously 😂 he gets to herd and guard pups 24hrs a day, he's super happy doing what he was born to do just on a muuuch smaller scale from livestock😅. Shows what can happen when we fulfill a dog's natural needs!!
This is super duper common with GSDs. NOt all of them but many seem to need a job of some kind and if they don't receive expectations and "orders" from the humans they'll find something to do on their own. I've made everything my GSD does into a "job" by treating all desirable behavior as his "duty", including settling down and relaxing. He's extremely good at adapting to new situations because I reinforced "adapting to new situations" as a job too lol
My Pyrenees Annie needed a job and my mother's family wouldn't give her one. She traveled with me eventually as my guard and shadow. I lived in a camper van at the time and we went everywhere walking, hiking, swimming. She needed a job on top of the exercise. One day, as a puppy she asserted herself as my guard in front of a cop. I was lucky the cop liked dogs and simply stepped back from us while he talked but I didn't want to rely on luck.
Maybe she's just a nut. I walked GS before including a huge female named Donna. Quiet as rocks.
You're right many herding type breeds are totally unsuitable as pets unless you're willing to put in the time and exercise
Prince is THE bestest boy🥰
Prince dish it back like u want bark & etc at me i give ur bull shit back how u like it
"very few people have a prince in thier life" 😂 oh so true!
And my friends think i'm crazy for letting their dogs correct my dog. Her whole demeanor changed as soon as Prince opened his mouth. Beautiful work yet again.
This is what's going to happen in our society with men vs. women. Men have been calm and lenient with women annoyance until men will reach the breaking point.
One of my sister’s dogs is really good about giving corrections. She’s told me that some people mistake it for aggression, which is crazy to me. He very clearly isn’t an aggressive dog and often tolerates a lot before resorting to a correction.
Gotta be careful with that though. Your friends thinking your crazy for it is a valid response, since it's pretty risky if their dogs aren't properly trained since they have a chance of actually harming your dog instead of just correcting the behavior through warnings
Your knowledge of the German Shepard is PRICELESS. I love all your videos, especially this one ❤
they are basically a giant chihuahua😂
Hahahaha@@vikingdogmanship
One of the best sessions I saw...
This is exactly the kind of difficult dog where you and Prince really shine as a team, delivering wonderful progress in just a few tens of minutes!
People not familiar with your work would call this impossible. Yet here we are. Thank you for all that you are doing for all the dogs and their owners.
Loved the “Happy End”, I mean just to see that this dog is able to change her behavior is already a big and great result, I’m really glad for her owner 🙏🏽🐾
Also, congrats for the great job camera person, the angles and everything were perfectly captured and the effort (running behind the dogs lol) is very appreciated 😎
That's crazy and what patience Prince has. We had two Border Collies and when one passed away, the other one stopped barking (she never really barked much to begin with but would join in when our other dog barked). She went almost a year before we heard a peep out of her. She barked because we left her outside too long and she wanted back in (and it was only one quick bark). I think in the remaining eight years of her life, she barked less than 20 times. Someone would ring our doorbell and she would get up and just stare at the door until we answered it. Now we have two puppies who whine and bark all of the time which is driving us bonkers.
It is so nice to see people in the comments not throwing a little hissy fit because you let your dog do his thing and teach the other a lesson. That's how it should be. Well done, man. Love these videos of prince. He's so awesome!
Prince is aware and listening during his corrections. That's absolutely incredible.
I feel for Prince, the number of "crazy" dogs he has to face 😅🤦🏽♂️
Prince's correction did the job and solved the case, I loved it so so much! ❤👌🏻
Question though, why did you intervene to stop Prince? I mean, don't you think that Prince knows when enough is enough?
Thanks for your great work 🙌🏽
Love from Brussels ❤✊🏽
I was wondering that too
This is just an assumption, but I would guess that it's for te benefit of the humans, so that mom, or dad don't freak out over it. It does look, and sound pretty scary.
Don’t feel bad for Prince, he’s lucky to have a job and he’s good at it. It’s all the working dogs with no job and no purpose or outlet that I feel sorry for.
@@OffGridDogs absolutely, we get that. Really we do.
@@user-ox7uj9tm1wI think you are correct🐾❤️
THANK YOU for saying a prong collar is not the answer PREACH 🙌
She is a good girl. She deserves to have this because it will show her mind and body to relax a bit when she sees other dogs, as well as her owner.
I dont think this dog wouldve been able to get through this without Prince. Sometimes this is what is required.
ETA: its almost like she was surprised that the 'object' of her obsession could also turn to her and tell her to knock it off. She was like 'huh???????’
Yes, that last comment of yours is so right. As a shepherding breed it is displaying behaviour a working sheep dog would towards livestock.
The day a Kelpie or a Collie receives a seeing to or backs down because a sheep asserts itself is the day that dog hangs up its spurs!
Once again, we've bred this into these dogs and it is our job to anticipate this behaviour is going to come out and we need to teach the dog the difference between a herd animal and a playmate!
One of your best videos Joel! So informative! Thanks to the owner for allowing you to video this session. She’s a beautiful German Shepherd!
Joel you are blessed with such an intelligent dog, I’m aware your a fab dog trainer, but having that intelligence with your dog makes life so much easier with their training!!
I'm sure adequate exercise, socialization and very good nutrition help bring the intelligence level up a bit. Seems like some of the visiting dogs are not well cared for/ neglected in some way, no matter their owners tax bracket
And of course good breeding!!
Wow Prince has an incredibly high tolerance. Totally fair correction from him and it snapped her out of it!! Really great video and amazing transformation. I felt relief for that dog who seemed to be significantly less anxious with the other dogs later in the video.
All Doberman's are awesome dogs. It's the only breed my wife and I, have ever raised. Abby is sitting next to me as I write this comment. She never leaves my side. And Charlie is always with my wife. Both, sleep on our bed with us. Just love the breed. Dobie's are so intelligent, loyal, loving. However, the breed is high energy. So you need to let the play, run around, etc.
Amazing to watch. Brought tears to my eyes. Prince not running off straight away as usual intrigued me, then you explained why....makes so much sense. What an amazing dog is your Prince.
Excellent results on her. She's not the finished product in one day, but her life will get better as she improves.
My rescue Staffy/Boxer cross is 95% improvement due to Beckman's methods and able to meet dogs now and say hello, considering I could not with 50ft of a dog without extreme leash reactivity and literally doing acrobatic flips, even at that distance. He is still not perfect and although fine with most dogs now, I've noticed that Bull Staffs and big dogs with long fur coats still trigger him slightly and require a slower introduction and corrections still. He had a challenge today, meeting two young and very highly excitable Staffys today, but with corrections to remain calm and after about 2 minutes of slow introduction, he was able to meet them.
Great video Beckman.
It's the whole concept of striking your bully...once they realize they are able to be hit, they see change. Prince knows his job...be a dog but when helping you he takes over when that push is needed. He was so patient than finally just said "I've had enough and you need correction." Keep up the good work.
This Shepard moves so fast, when the video started, I thought my playback was on 1.5 speed. Crazy.
Same! 😮
Prince gave her a little bit of a spanking what she needed. She is not the boss on campus she needs to realize that. She has not always the boss! Well done again Prince you are the man!
Really well done, to EVERYONE involved here, including the puppies.
Your commentary is so helpful. Thanks to you and Prince! 😉
I got my popcorn ready for this one!🍿
I have candies, lol! 😂
"Aw poor baby, she's scared."
That's a huge misread; the dog isn't backing away, tail and ears are up and she is fixated on Prince to a T. This is like watching a toddler shout and point fingers at another toddler.
This is why I recommend this channel to anyone who asks me about dog behavior. Perfect explanation and discussion on how to deal with it.
This is probably my favorite correction. The shepherds body language was gold. Amazing video.
I think others have said this (and you’ve done this once or twice)…. I would love to hear from owners how things are going for them after they’ve been back home working on their own.
You could tell how Prince had used everything he had when he did the quick shake the stress out move, wasn't much later he lashed out. It's impressive how much Prince shows his feelings and where his thoughts are, you can tell how he's thinking in a lot of the video.
We just adopted a 3 yr old female GSD who is EXACTLY like this with other dogs MINUS the barking. I need to fly her out here for this…
OMG, the most sweet yet funny moment is Prince being barked at, he looked up at Joel and goes in for a hug as if to say ''This f****** chick man...''
Brilliant highlight of the differences in high prey drive breed like Shepherds and fun goofy guys like Prince. They all love to run but high drive dogs need to learn to stop and enjoy without needing to control everything and everyone. It's hard work sometimes. Prince taught this girl a great lesson. Well done. Hopefully with your insights her training makes a big difference.
Prince is amazing & so patient. He deserves a weekly spa day for having to deal with being annoyed & stressed by these dogs.
Looks like she just needed another dog to show her the hyper energy and noise wasnt okay. At that point her mad energy and fixation broke and she discovered a new mode she can work in, a little calmer. Excellent to watch this in real time, and your socialisation exercises were fascinating too! You guys are great.
thanx for not giving up on that shep 😊
Prince is one well adjusted confident dog ❤
The way this video ends up made me feel great, like a dog success story. You can really see her start to improve and be a happier dog. The owner is obviously trying to help this pretty girl.
The amount of work you do in the session is crazy. You go beyond for a lot for your clients. You are so fair and honest.
Its actually terrifying how smart Prince is... holy sht dude...
wild how prince's correction led to such a dramatic change in the german shepherd.
Dogs are good at working things out then humans enter the equation with all their bad energy and ignorance and screw it up
This is an amazing video.
Prince's correction was so accurate.
The GSD seemed to undrestand immedieately that her behaviour was not appropriate .
And after that, I found that Joel also provided appropriate and effective manners toward the GSD.
Like any bully from any species, they only do it until they cannot. You are bloody good Mr Beckman, I have learned a lot from your videos and have applied those lessons to our reactive Rhodesian Ridgeback. Thank you.
I feel like most people can't learn because they never stop barking.
Zak George is calling the cops!
Love the video. My GSD pup was corrected by two older GSDs and there’s been such an awesome change with him. He wasn’t this wild but it was a great teachable moment for sure.
This girl looks and acts very similar to my King Shepherd! We've worked with ours a lot, but the barking is really something that we have always had to work with her on. Love your videos!!
King Shepherd isn't real breed and the name is false advertisement, what you have is a GSD/Shiloh Shepherd cross
Say it louder for those in the back, lol! I laugh every time I hear of that crossbreed@@Spr1ggan87
My dog is actually a cross between a Great Pyrenees, Malamute, and German Shepherd. King Shepherd is absolutely a breed, but thanks for your concern dude.
@@eh7322It isn't, it's not recognised and you've just proven my point. You don't have a "King Shepherd" you have a cross. It's false advertisement.
it's not like most "breeds"are intermixed lolz. just look a lbradoodle...
and often times the bastards dogs you are beter off with cause less health problems@@Spr1ggan87
Another great one! Love how Prince is so aware and looks at Joel to assess if he can do what he wants to do. Prince is truly a prince.
I get so much out of watching you work, I'm very thankful you post your training sessions with these dogs
How great she is doing towards the end! Love it!
When the Shephard trotted away from Prince it was almost a miracle. Your explanation of how her brain was working - how Prince shut that off and allowed her to run on a different track really helped me understand what you were trying to do. I'm so lad her papa looked for someone to help her - I pray he was able to maintain her progress.
It brings me in tears to see how we are just like them and how we humans need to call out eachother to progress in live, is beautiful what are you doing helping everyone, blessings ✌🏽💛
Funny how Prince giving the correction......produced a kind of reality check......like when a child jams its fingers in a door for the first time, and the danger is realized.
Satisfying to see Prince kicking into action when it's needed.
I am honestly training myself a "Prince" out of my next dog mostly because of these videos. I've dedicated my life to giving challenging dogs a second chance, but choosing that one puppy to assist in that will be so much more effective than just doing it alone. I believe I'll be able to help loads more dogs this way.
There is always a little bit of a gamble when getting a puppy because its personality isn’t fully formed. You might have better odds selecting a dog that already displays the traits that you are looking for, it could even be a young dog i just think it’s risky getting an 8week old animal with a specific intention and is worth thinking about an old pup/dog.
@@krystal6137 You can definitely see the basic temperament even in a puppy, I also have selected a breed with generally good social tendencies with other dogs. I will ask for a puppy with confident behavior because social skills can be taught, but basic temperament is set. I will also be asking for the breeders' help with choosing the right puppy. I have three breeders I will be contacting with details of what I'm looking the puppy for.
I am not a puppy person, so I considered getting a 1-3 years old dog, but I want to maximize the use of the crucial socialization period. There's very few adult dogs available where I live that aren't available for one of the typical reasons for rehoming (but mostly behavioral issues - which is why I'm on this path). Also, it would honestly be nice to, for once, have a dog that I trained from the beginning and not patch up on top of other people's training. Last time I had a dog with fully-me training was when I was a kid.
I have a prince, Slater a European Doberman
Hes the same with my daughters unfixed german Shepard
They all get along well now
There is a German shepherd at our dog park that is just like this dog. Comes racing up to dogs who are chasing their balls and barks and nips at them. It makes it very unenjoyable to be around. And my dog, if provoked will do a "prince" and it may end badly.
Boss Prince is baaaaack!! Good work as always!
Prince is peeing for a reason - it shows how little he respects her (the GSD)
Prince is magnificent and a true representation of a well trained, socialised Dobe!
Prince is such an awesome pup!
My sister has a difficult doodle. She’s very under socialized and stubborn. My sister believes the solution is getting a second dog to play with the first. And I’m begging her to make dog friends before adding a dog sibling.
Not a good idea adding another dog to a bad situation
Your videos are FASCINATING!! Good on these owners for realizing they need help, they've not only made their lives better but they've made their dog's life BETTER!
Also, Prince is beautiful and I love your breakdown of what he is thinking!
Imagine someone chasing you around your own house yelling at you!?😊
Snap. I have a dog who was exactly like this. Her Savior was Was an excellent trainer and his dog Pumba. Pumba was basically Prince's doppelgänger in spirit and was the most playful doberman I've ever met. It took around 3 years before Simmie would be comfortable being within the vicinity of another dog. During those three years not only did she undergo rigorous training, I had to undergo rigorous training and make changes to who I am. Because of a rather nasty up bringing by the previous owners, I was extra sympathetic with her thinking that showing her love and care and being extra gentle with her would show her that people and other dogs could be trusted, but after a few weeks I knew I needed help. I am by nature quite meek and a bit of an introvert so my trainer out of his way to make me a more assertive and confident person. For example one day we went to a park, and he made me yell at the top of my voice. At first I was quite conscious of what the other people in the park would think, but he kept yelling word of encouragement at the top of his voice and I must say it worked. Then came the part where I had to show her tough love when she show any form of aggression in the form of short, sharp verbal reprimand. With dogs you need to be sincere with your reprimand which is why I had to build my assertiveness first. One thing that I did notice was because she was so insecure, once I was able gain her trust initially, it was quite easy to build a strong bond with her quite quickly. This helped a lot as she would go out of her way to keep me happy and this worked to our favour as the moment she would show any form of aggression, I would make it verbally clear that I was not happy with her. She would go out her way to make me happy by nuzzling against me and rubbing her head against my head. I would then shower her with praise with a lot of jumping around and playing which would show her both approval from my part as well as a form of distraction from the stimulus of her aggression. It did not happen overnight but eventually she started ignoring people and other dogs walking past her. During this time the people in the neighbourhood had noticed this change as well (She had built up quite a reputation initially) and they would also help by chatting with me for a couple of minutes while Simmie sat next to me while I gave her treat after treat. We slowly cut down on the intensity of treats till she would comfortably next to me without any treats at all. I can now walk past any dog or person and would not have a care in the world. she is not the type of dog that would just rush up another dog and start playing but that is her choice and I respect that. The main thing is she doesn't tense up. She loves to have zoomies on grass and now she will have her zoomies while other dogs and people are walking or running past her. I've had dogs in the past but it was only after having Simmie that I believe I really learned the behavoural aspect of dogs in general thanks to an extremely patient trainer. The biggest thing I have learnt is no two dogs are alike and training should be in real time based on your dog's behaviour. Just because one particular way of training works for one dog does not mean it will work for another. You need to adapt your training according to the dog's behaviour and you need to be quick with your response. responding 20 seconds too late is as good as not responding at all. Your techniques and how you adapt your training according to the dog's actions brings back memories and I really appreciate the help you provide to people who need it. Simmie is just over 9 years old now and we are still learning.
You did a great job with a difficult case! Thank you for taking responsibility for a big dog who needed extra help.
Great teaching session Joel and the team 👍
By the way, how are the kittens doing? I wonder if the second one is now cool with Prince 😅
Hope so, Prince might be a dog but he's a nice good boy!
Honestly i love how she is nice, just really really talkative.
I usually hate " intro's " but this one was perfect. Especially the wording referencing the predictable thing of prince being the saving grace, but still giving hope to the audience.
Prince to the rescue! love Prince
You are so smart fr. Ur knowledge of dog behavior is incredible. I don’t expect most owners to be at ur level but most should have a basic understanding especially when it comes to breed. I love my friend but she bought a german shepherd when she lives in a STUDIO apartment. Not a wise decision 😅
Yeah not the best decision but also depends on the dogs energy level I have 2 working lines and my female shepherd could easily live in apartment she’s very calm and relaxed surprisingly
Not especially for her, i wouldn't like to be in her shoes, Imagine having to Walk on the eggs because otherwise your dog could bark and the neighbours might not like It and this Is Just an example
Prince is so intelligent its amazing
Thank you such much dear Sir, for speaking clean English language, understandable for all People 👍💐👌🐕
This vid should go viral, your explanation of what the dogs were doing and why was excellent. 👏👏❤️🇬🇧
At last, Prince gets to release the Kraken!
So cool to see the development of Prince. Great video!
Wowee that was wild! The proof is in the pudding, as you say.
I call an accidental bite, with an excited, barking, non aggressive crazy dog…
“OOPS! “Caught a tooth”. “It’s Not a bite”… but still not ok. Joel is my favorite! Refer his videos to everyone (when appropriate) if we witness behavioral issues with “owners”… heehee… And I always tell people Joel’s partner is a beautiful Doberman named “Prince”. When I help people out (I’m not a trainer, but just like to help out) I use the techniques I’ve learned from Joel and Prince… My Doberman Ziggy is a pretty special partner too.
Thanks Joel and Prince 🐕🙏👍
🥰🥰🥰 Good boy Prince! Hope you gave him a big treat for telling the dog... "Enough"!
It's the protection breed dogs that don't bark are the ones that will bite a human.
I once had a dog who barked a lot. She had no control over it. I read a tip to first train the dog to bark on command then they can learn to stop barking. Not that she really ever stopped but she tried and her barking turned into a hiccups sound.
It’s not the case with that dog though.
Prince was showing some pretty clear signs of 'you're stressing me out' too, with the yawn, the shaking off. Girly just was not paying attention to anything but her own machine gun mouth
I always want to be entirely honest, so I'll say that there's been times I've been skeptical of certain things I've seen on this channel, albeit rarely. I always return though because I see how it works in every video. You really have a solid sense of a dog's emotions and it's very impressive to see you and Prince work. Don't stop doing what you do!
Prince is making Bosco so proud. Rip Bosco. This is your legacy.
This whole setup is a salvation for these difficult dogs. 🙏
