My in laws do it horribly to the point where it’s a disservice to the dog. I feel so bad for him. He has no guidance, no structure, and they truly believe that is what’s best for him. They don’t even see that the insane barking at the door, the fearfulness about thunderstorms and new people is BECAUSE of their lack of structure and boundaries for him. He is just allowed to make every high arousal/stress poor decision that he wants and it just builds and builds. He is the most stressed out dog i have ever met. And on top of it all he is an understimulated labradoodle. He’s practically bursting at the seams with anxiety and aggression. It’s so hard to see but they don’t listen to the advice my husband and I provide:((

Painful to read the story here but thank you for sharing it because it illustrates perfectly how the absence of rules and structure leads to MORE anxiety, not less. The same is true for children, I think that's one reason responsible dog ownership helps children grow up to be solid, capable parents who know how to care for children well.

People aren't only breeding softer dogs but weak nerved insecure dogs. Proper corrections from a prong collar with fear based reactivity and aggression when in public gave my GSD rescue confidence in me and herself. We can now walk with a martingale only, with zero reactivity, no pulling, no BS. She's a great dog now, but it took tools. Positive only would of been a death sentence for my girl, period.

​@@janiearmstrong6981herm springer 2.25 in prong collar. Get several extra links to ensure it will. Make sure you put it on correctly. It should fit around her neck just under her ear set. It should not hang low or be loose. Then when you're walking her and she misbehaves or does not listen you do a quick snap on the leash. It distributes even pressure along the prong collar and it's much safer because it will not choke out her trachea. If that is not enough purchase an e-collar martingale systems is fantastic but learn how to use. You have to watch videos you have to teach her the correct behavior to do. When she misbehaves then you press the stim on the at the lowest level possible but one that she will respond to. When she responds with the correct behavior then you release the button so that she associates the stimulation with a bad behavior or unwanted behavior, and the release of the stimulation with a good behavior

Just had an argument with a dog trainer here on YT. She claims punishment is never needed and is old thinking. These people are crazy and only deal with soft mild mannered animals with issues that can be fixed in 10 minutes. She has no videos of difficult high drive dogs…just videos of her stuffing their face with treats and says voila! I have tried it for a couple of years. It has such a low ceiling and doesn’t fix real issues. Balanced with the right tools is the way to go. Thx.

I love my e collars used correctly it gives the dog and yourself freedom and safety ,now I only have to do vibrations when I correct.🇦🇺🐾🐾🐾

I trained both my standard poodles, starting at their age of 6 months, with a prong collar (here in Canada). Both were extremely well behaved, happy, sociable, and well adjusted for all of their 14.5 years of life. They loved when I put the collar on because it meant training and fun. Both were trained to stop, on the spot, when given the command. One day, I opened my front door and across the street my boy Caesar saw his best dog friend and bolted down the stairs. I yelled stop and he froze halfway down the stairs. At the same time a car was passing by. I don’t think giving him a cookie at the time would have saved his life, because his desire to play with his doggy friend was stronger than any treat I could have offered him. If used properly and ethically, all training tools should be used appropriately for the dog’s personality as well as the circumstances. It is my responsibility as their Mom to keep them safe and well balanced. Great discussion btw, thanks so much.

I appreciate that you understand and communicate the big picture. Which is, the end of dog ownership, and dogs as pets and companions. People get caught up in these incremental regulatory steps and battles, and generally have a hard time grasping the larger objective.

I lived in an apartment under people with a large dog that barked constantly. An e-collar stopped that. If they had not had the e-collar the dog would have ended up at the shelter. They had to eventually get their own house, anyway, which is the optimal solution for people with large dogs, imo. The dog was territorial which is unacceptable in a shared living space.

Thank you for this intelligent conversation . I am a full proponent of e collar use. I am also a full proponent of intelligent dog ownership. My newly turned one year old Dutch shepherd has had an E collar on him since about 4/5 months of age. I don’t think he felt a correction until about 6/ 7 months of age which was very ‘gently’ introduced. This tool will be integral to his continued training for real world situations. . He has never been given a treat to perform, only my approval , and then later a ball. He is a working dog, and he is treated as such. You will never see a happier, more loving, more willing to please dog than my Fury. He is sound hearted and able to navigate any environment without aggression. Please keep up your fight and your educational efforts! Thank you!

I use dogtra and am very happy with it and the adjustment. My level is 2 and sometimes 3. Sometimes a nick and sometimes continuous. Today even the Monks of New Skette are advocates for the ecollar. I should tell you I compete my dogs in field trials but I enjoy listening to your topics.

I believe E-collar training, when done responsibly, can be a life saver. I have trained one of my dogs, a well trained dog, who chased deer over a busy roadway because he wouldn't listen to my recall command when he was in chase mode. The e-collar training stopped this behavior quickly and I transitioned from electric pulse to vibrate and beeps and didn't have to use the electric pulse after that to get a recall from my dog immediately.

Looking forward to that application. Very very good podcast. The first I finished this year.

abandoning dogs or any pet because people can't deal with behavior and time commitments is far more abusive and cruel than a properly used e collar. The bans of e collars in Germany or any other country because of ignorant politicians is phooey. Frankly lazy people who do not want to visually supervise their dog use e fences and e no bark, yet a supervised dog with a remote collar not legal. Just plain illogical and based on emotions and not science.

It sounds crazy, but there seems to be hidden agendas everywhere you turn...

I have a DogTra ARc e-collar and its great but have to admit before getting used to how to get the right fit for my dog it was frustrating many of a time where ive gone to use it and there was no skin contact, i remember thinking i wish there was a way to know if there's good skin contact. Ive just looked at one of these Martins as the tech seems really good but they're a tad expensive. I think i'll defiantly get one but might have to save for a few months first lol

When your dog gets run over by a bus because you coukd call him back from a distance, don't post how upset you are because you didnt use a tool that woukd of prevented it!!!!!

agreed Robert, no licensing, it ties you to the rules they come up with, else you are breaking the law....

Pitbull history nerd here. Pitbulls were bred for more then just fighting dogs. Bears and bulls were the original targets in baiting type games as a farm test and hunting test in one. But they werent bred for needless aggression. Humans messed that up as well. Pitbulls should have intense people pleasing drive working drive decent prey drive and some guardian instincts. But primary drive should be peoppe pleasing. Dogs had ro be able ro be near dogs they were going to fight or had already faught and not be an issue till told to fight or placed in the ring. Same as bite work with dogs now adays and the old school style. Protection pitbulls were bred from the same lines and just had slightly more territorial natures and needed training. The hunting types more chase and catch drive. Fighting lines slightly higher aggression. You also have some breeders purposefully breeding badly aggressive animals as easier to train pitbulls or no training pitbulls for certain jobs.

I've never seen Robert so quiet, Bart stole the show.

Just one correction: If you want to be a dog trainer in Germany you do not have to go to a trainer school by "Martin Rütter" there are many professional schools for dog trainers and you can choose free. Prices vary but usually you have to put a good amount of money on the table to take these courses (from 2.5k € to 25k € - it depends). The license than is usually granted to you by your local veterinary office, sometimes with an extra examination of your knowledge theoretically and practically. It depends on your local veterinary office because they all handle this differently.

Great interview. I love my dogs.... I LOVE my dogs and because I love my dogs, I want them to be a good healthy weight, I want them to have boundaries and limitations, training, socialization so that they can also have some freedom and a full life. Way too many people out there claiming to love their dogs so much they just cannot correct the bad behavior, their dogs live small, closed in lives. Boring lives on the couch or in their yard or at the very best...at the end of a leash with little to no freedom. I also love my E-collars AND SO DO MY DOGS! When my dogs see their e-collars come out they get very excited. To them, the collar means they are going hiking or to the beach....something fun and free, off leash. Tools are only as dangerous or cruel as the person on the other end of the leash. Personally, I think people who ban tools are cruel, because a lot of dogs suffer for it. I have Tri-Tronics collars and now... Dogtra One mistake people make is thinking it is electrocuting dogs. It isn't. An e-collar SHOULD be a simple extension of your hand. Anything can be abused, if the person is abusive. Not all tools are for all dogs. It is a matter of knowing your dog, knowing how to properly use a tool and to be fair on all things.

Some dogs need an e collar for training and some don't. I've experienced and owned both types of dogs.

They’re against e-collars yet they probably use devices for/on themselves all the time that do similar things. Of course the industry calls them “haptics”, instead of “shock”. I wonder how many of the naysayers to the e-collar use smart phones and smart watches without a second thought. Some people also equate this to Tens machines as well.

Indulgence without limit isn't love. There must be limits

Off leash -owner MUST HAVE RECALL. I never take my dogs to dog parks. We train in a duck park. My dogs are trained not to mess with the ducks and the untrained dogs can’t come cause they’re ducks everywhere. I am so grateful to be able to have a place to train. Private wild life area, but every once in a while , a ding ding owner comes and they let their untrained dog off the leash and they NEVER can call their dog back, but we keep training and my Mal is so focused-they leave, but sometimes their dog gets in my dogs face or tries to take his tug. They are so lucky my dog is trained neutral -I let the owners have it. They usually leave then. Thank God!!

I walk a high reactive dog about 65 lbs. reactive towards people cats dogs children etc… she’s loud charges towards them always in alert. I started using prong on her, saying loud no and popping her, finally I see a change. All I say is no and she stops. Still have a long way to go. Am I missing something?

They need to pull down the effectiveness of balanced trainers because balanced trainers are so much more effective. So they must ban certain tools like E-collars, because an e-collar can teach a dog perfect recall within 1-2 sessions where as there positive only methods may months to years in some dog and lets be honest in most dogs it never works. they want the new normal to be their much lower standard

The potential removal of domestic dogs from society would not make it past the lawsuits from veterinarians, pharmaceutical companies, dog food manufacturers and veterinarian colleges. There would be to much capital loss. I'm referring to the US.

Thank you for an informative discussion. I think E-collars should only be in the hands of professional trainers because they are to often misused by lazy and/or wilfully ignorant owners, monstering trainers do say most of the dog problems are really owner problems. The other reason is the it is entirely possible to train dogs to high performance standards without the use of punitive training tools. How do you think sheep and farm dogs were trained in the good old days, long before electric collars, etc? Yes some would have used harsh methods but many trained their dogs without these and with humane methods. I spent a fair bit of time on family farms when I was a child and can attest to this.
