I've never heard it explained so well about the working dog. Most people just don't understand why they need to be left alone and just let them do what their instincts tell them to do. It's in their genes to be a livestock guardian dog not a pet they make horrible pets if you don't have every waking hour to give them they bond with livestock and they don't leave for a 9 to 5 job

With Toby's natural instincts and your training you have Toby The Wonder Dog. So worth your investment.

Toby is the star of this channel for me. I respect that you treat Toby with love and affection but without pampering him, in line with his nature and his 'work'. I'm glad YT recommended this channel a few months back.

I have thoroughly enjoyed watching Toby come into his own. We love watching him serious and watching him dopey. This is really a channel that I can leave on and leave the room, with the entire family watching, and I want to thank you for that. I personally know what goes in to making a KZread video and for that I want to thank you also. Jimmy

Absolutely beautiful dog. We had a Rotweiller/Border Collie mix that needed no training whatsoever to guard our chickens and ducks. She hung out with them all day and we never lost one to stray dogs, coyotes or any of the other critters around here.

This dude is playing the real star dew valley

Toby looks like the happiest dog on earth to me. Thank you for addressing the barking issue. I understand that a bird farm is already noisy but a commanding bark on top of a rooster on top of geese, etc, its a factor.

Believe me, as someone who has a Great Pyrenees who is an indoor dog, they would much prefer to be outside, unless it is super hot out, then they love nothing more than to lay right under the vent for the AC. My guardian dog right now is to guard my grandchildren and the other dogs and myself. She does a wonderful job. :)

Once you let a pup into your heart life is not the same without one.

Toby: "Watcha lookin' at?" Geese: "Nothing. Nothing at all..."

Your videos are so well edited together to stay entertaining but also so educational! Thank you for sharing your farm with us

Toby is an amazing dog for the farm. I feel so proud watching him in action and the great job you've done with him and it's nice that you can walk us through some of his life and his role on the farm. My Molly is an Old English Sheepdog puppy and she's 6 months old. I'm still in the process of training her to behave with the ducks. The chickens she's fine, but the ducks get loud and start to run and fly away from her...then of course she chases. Work in progress, but these things don't happen overnight. Toby is a dog that Molly can look up to. Sheepdogs are amazingly instinctive and Molly herds me all the time. Absolutely love this video Morgan.

My wife and I rescued a retired Great Pyrenees a few years ago. What an amazing breed. She loves her new life as a family dog!

I like that you're reasonable with your dog. You're respecting his natural instincts. A lot of people expect dogs to be humans.

I honestly love ducks and geese and I've been watching this channel ever since I found it which was 5 months ago and its honestly one of the best channels so thank you sir for the content😎

i can't tell you how much i appreciate how much research you've done, unlike all the pet owners who buy inbred poodles from pet stores and think they come preprogrammed with tricks

He is incredible, glad he puts geese in their place they can be intimidating even to people.

I've never met Toby, and probably never will, but I love him all the same

Honestly I would be terrified if I were a dog and my owner went NOOOOO in that voice..... it honestly startled me

The real title: "I trianed a polar bear to protect livestock"

Waching dogs do what they were selected and bred to do for centuries is so wonderful and somehow fulfilling

Toby is totally cool. My three send kudos. Go Toby! We manage a 400 protected preserve here so lots of predators. The homestead part is only about twenty acres. Ours are invaluable. BRAVO! Nice segment this morning.

Most working dog breeds don't truly sleep the way we do, they nap A LOT. I haven't worked with guardian dogs specifically, but I know my husky really never sleeps more than 3hrs straight. My gsd growing up was also the same way.

I love your approach to training Toby, my family raised cattle dogs for years, and I always found that a stern word goes farther than a blow to the dog, and at the end of the day it only makes your dog afraid of you. In my personal experience training dogs I’ve always found it’s far easier to train a dog to start a new behavior than to stop a negative one. I used to have this one dog who would always lose his mind barking when we brought him food, and instead of scolding him for barking I trained him to go grab his favorite chew toy and bring it to me before I would give him his food so he couldn’t bark with the toy in his mouth, and he’d go right to eating after dropping it in my hand, I think you did an amazing job training Toby he’s an incredibly calm and competent guard dog

Wow that pond is lookin *FULL*

Hes the goodest boy 😍

The silky rooster just goes off in every single video and it cracks me up.

Toby is such an awesome dog, and your excellent training really shines when you see Toby asserting himself with body language with the birds instead of barking at them or going after them. It can be tough, especially with aggressive birds, but Toby is perfect!

"RELEASE THE QUAKEN!" "out you go chickens." Well we sure know who are the favorites now.

When a man gathers wisdom, he gather's it from multiple sources and decides on his own.

Just a working boy doing what he was bred to do, that's something that's getting more and more rare. You did good with him, congrats.

Toby's on his way to becoming a great work dog and friend thanks to you, Morgan. I appreciate the diligence you put into research and your own training to be a good dog owner. Often people get a dog or other animal and never think of how they have to control or change their own behavior. That makes it really hard for the animal to understand and learn. Considering this is your first "student," I'm sure it was difficult not to spoil him. I'm impressed with how Toby appears to be developing into a valuable asset. You deserve a "teacher (trainer) of the year" award!

Toby is giving the geese his "not now" look. I am just waiting for the Pablo and Toby adventures around the farm (in a Charlotte's Web style for TV). Give Toby one good scratch behind the ears from me.
