Most of us who are owned by a dingo, especially wild born orphans would love nothing more than to see them in the wild where they belong. A dingo can never allow itself to be a pet, but kept successfully they will be a true mate for life.
Interesting that this is the only comment I agree with and yet my boys name is Red - you are completely right btw- my life lives on Reds terms.. we have learnt how to respect each other
Mine are very very curious. Even though they’ve been destructive when puppies, it was out of curiosity rather than destruction efforts. Wouldn’t have any other pets. They are loving, loyal, gentle, affectionate & very intelligent.
So we rescued a pup and was told it was a lab cross, when we brought her home the first 2 months were a nightmare, she wouldn’t come near us, would constantly growl, escape, and would howl all night if we didn’t let her sleep in the same room... what change was we realised she was a dingo (after watching a doco) and so I bought every book on dingo behaviours and re trained myself. She is now 11 years old and probably the most beautiful dog I have ever owned, she is perfect with children and other people, she gives the best cuddles.. I would say the difference between my black lab and the dingo is the dingo will do things when she is ready not when you tell her to do it, it almost like having a big cat... I will say one thing people say Labs are really smart but the dingo has an intelligence on another level which is why I think people fail owning a dingo, they are not prepared to put the time and effort into a dingos needs, but once you do it is very rewarding owning one...
The closest to Dingo is The Pariah Dog (low class uncategorised rejected breed for selection breeding purpose) can be found around the world (is believed to be a Semi-Domestic type) can be a good watch dog and hunting dog is a free ranging dog not a leash/cage type of dog they had cat like behaviour with independent mind set is not a type of dog to stay in house should be year long out door dog can be trained but required extra patience is given there is many in the animal shelter waiting for adoption
Hi bradly smith i would love to introduce you to my pure alpine dingo Red- he jumps through hula hoops, speaks on command and is better behaved than most domestic dogs! On my page you will be able to see videos of my dingo. Hope you enjoy 😊
@@chuditch755 but they are primitive breeds and have wild and primitive behaviours Dingoes are only primitive dogs that went feral Ancient people have dingoes as pets if they can have these dogs as pets we can too
@@garfitosmaximo971 Dingoes are descended from primitive domestic dogs yes, but that does not stop them being completely different things from Carolina dogs (distinct evolutionarily, genetically, morphologically and behaviuorally). This video isn't saying you can't keep dingoes (or Carolina dogs for that matter) as pets, it's just advising that the average dingo wouldn't make a good pet for most people.
My family rescued a dingo when he was realy young, poor boy we had to put him on a protein diet because he wasnt getting enough protein or food, he looked life a bag of bones, but hes healthy now going on three years i think. And now hes my best friend, he acts like any other dog, loving caring hides in a corner when he steals food or pees in the house. He does pee on things when another male dog is in the house.. ( territory reasons ), and we also have a Chihuahua he plays well with her, and my cat, plus he loves people meating new people is something new for him but he dosent like to many people at once. He is independent at times but mostly he loves to play games and lay on top of you and get petted. I also trained him to lay down and sit to get part of my sandwich, he also opens the frount door. My Chihuahua cant open the door, ( shes to small) but she does everything els. And yes he does mess up the coach every once in a while, but only because cars are going by and he Must look out the windo and chase them up and down are yard. My dingo likes scaring my chickens and bones are his favorite, but Hey so does my Chihuahua. Lol
The quote from Governor Philip (from 1797) illustrates a lot of what's wrong with this research. Philip was a naval officer with no education in animal behaviour or training. Using Philip's perspective on training an animal is as useful as asking for Darwin's thoughts on building a penal colony--nice to have but hardly relevant. Moreover, the quotation is manipulated to increase the attention to the word "savage," in a way that the original author never intended (the quotation could have been manipulated to say that a dingo HAS MUCH THE MANNERS OF A DOG," but Smith didn't do that). Finally, even with Philip's lack of knowledge, he doesn't say that the dingo can't be trained but only that he feels (with no expert knowledge) that they're "not LIKELY to change in this particular"; however there are hundreds of examples where the dingo has changed, has been trained and has shown that it can be an outstanding pet. The other foundational problem with the research is that is assumes to place dingoes on the "dog personality" spectrum, when they're not dogs--and they shouldn't be judged or trained as if they were. "Dog hardware with cat software" is as good a description I've heard to think about a dingo. Cats could be described as intelligent, neophobic, with a strong prey drive, escape artists, aloof, independent, difficult to socialize, etc., and no one would claim as a result that cats don't make good pets--though they may deduce that one wouldn't train cats as if they were dogs. Not surprisingly then, one of the conclusions offered, that "many of these behaviours lie outside of what is considered acceptable pet CANINE behaviour" would be as appropriate for a cat, rabbit, horse, turtle or fish. But that wouldn't mean that these other animals can't make good pets--and there is much evidence that they can be--but they'd be trained and cared for differently than if they were dogs. Dingoes aren't dogs and they can't be trained just like dogs. The research is stunningly tone deaf in that regard. Full disclosure, I have cared for a wide variety of canines, including dingoes and I've found them to be more intelligent (which makes them very trainable), more sensitive, and more socially engaging (relates to intelligence and trainability) than any of the scores of dogs I've cared for and trained. They make stunningly great pets. Dingoes aren't dachshunds, but they're remarkable animals and amazing companions.
I’ve been thinking when I’m retired I want to get a dingo as a pet and I went through a rabbit hole of research for the span of 9-10 hours but can’t quite get a solid say if having a dingo as a pet is good or bad…
I can say that dingos are dogs, I owned one for about 6 years till she passed away from a tumor. Between the ages of 1 and 3 they can learn so many tricks as well as social behavior. She lived with my mastiff and learned to bark (which became annoying after a while) and learned to protect. She was awesome, not only are they beautiful they are also very protect. My dingo (sandy) never left my side. Always wanting approval for chasing birds, or running for a squirl. But I did learn that when owning a dingo to only wash then once a year. They clean themselves and it's not that good for them. Weird. But they are dogs and awesome pets. RIP sandy. Best dog I ever had.
The dingo (canis dingo) is not a dog (canis familiaris) or a wolf (canis lupus). There are definite similarities with dogs, but there are big differences. Dingoes are super smart, more intelligent than any dog. They are also very agile and can climb to an extent that dogs can't. Check ua-cam.com/video/Uq2agRt4dKA/v-deo.html There are quite a few good videos about dingoes on youtube.
What would it be like for a human to try walking up to a wild Australian Dingo dog if you were to see a tame friendly one or one that looks friendly and try to walk up to it and pet it or even hand feed it? my cousin loves to mess with wild animals or try to turn them into outdoor pets and was wondering what info my interesting cousin should know? I do not agree with what he does and thinks his plans are bad ideas but thats just my opinion.
if you run across a wild horse then you would have to tame it. Does not mean that horses do not make good pets. this guy does not using real logic he's basically taking what other people said and stating it as fact
Bradley Smith so we agree. As with anything else, it would depend on the dog, it would depend on the dingo, and it would depend on whoever setting up their little scientific-based experiment. Still, it's not living with them.
@@mylucidlife495 absolutely... Which is why we report averages from as big a population as possible and make inferences. There's always outliers. I I00% disagree I have to live with a dingo to make conclusions about this.
Maybe someone who knows absolutely nothing about dingoes should not make videos about dingoes! Has he just made all of his so called facts up? Just about everything thing that this fw has said is absolute crap! I have a pet dingo and it is the best pet I have ever owned, far better than any domestic dog that I have had as a pet.
Hi there. Thanks for watching. Im not sure what qualifies a person to speak on a topic then? But I have spent many years researching dingoes, including many behavioural and cognitive studies resulting in peer reviewed scientific publications, a book on dingoes, and a PhD on dingo cognition. I don't make things up but merely report the findings
@@smibp001 you don't know what begs the question means in logic. The correct semantically constructed question you needed was, it RAISES the question. I think you need to revisit Raymond Coppinger's work on village dogs.

Therefore They are MORE in Tune w/ Humans and They are smarter than any other Doge that I have raised!!!!! These so called Experts know exactly but wont tell You. FORBIDDEN KNOWLEDGE!!!!

She is well. Behaved and I've had hér for eight years
Dingos are problem solving. I find they do a little more critical thinking then dogs. That's what makes them different.
Uhm. I had a dingo when I was growing up. She was very motherly and very protective. And I was a baby.
I love my dingo and she lives me

Be careful what you say about Dingos, because Australian farmers use videos like this as an excuse to hunt and kill Dingos.

More like a cat
Nowhere near like a dog
