    I commend you. I appreciate you. The confidence in myself in the relationship I'm investing in with my dog has grown immensely because of a few minutes watching you. It's almost unsettling how similar you, our dogs& i are. Being respectful of our pets is HUGE! THANKS 🎉

  • @masontuss2331
    @masontuss2331Ай бұрын

    Your so wrong its laughable. There is nothing wrong with a dog in a restaurant and in no way is it an osha violation in fact the ADA says service animals must be allowed in any state/government buildings, businesses, and nonprofit organizations that serve the public and that the dogs are allowed in any space openly available to the public.

  • @joetate87
    @joetate87Ай бұрын

    @masontuss2331 so introducing a dirty animal and pathogens is 100% acceptable? Service animals are a non issue, people need them, and they have a right to that. But if you don't understand why a pet shouldn't be in a grocery store or restaurant, there's no help for you.

  • @masontuss2331
    @masontuss2331Ай бұрын

    @joetate87 so those dirty animals are actually cleaner then most humans. Then if they aren't service dogs that would mean they are In a dog friendly place and they have a right to be there just as much as anyone else. This would mean if you see a dog in a place in Public and you don't want to be around dogs you should leave. On the not of introducing pathogens only a handful of bacteria from dogs can infect humans and hopefully your washing your vegetables when you can get home cause thay dog could Shit on those vegetables and that'd probably be the cleanest thing on there.

    My girls a lot like this ! But it’s cause events happen and you fail them ! They can’t help it ! I’ve had animals my whole life and but some special breeds are just different and do have to get obedience training but you also have to be careful not to let the wrong person to waist your time and your dogs and get one who is successful ! But Im in hopes that you have details on how to help this poor baby ! And if I learn I will do work one day to help rehome dogs and teach them cause this has really hit me hard ! But believe you me ! I was walking her in the rain and she was so excited she caused me to loose my ballance and hit my head and blacked my whole face and I’m sorry to keep commenting so much but my girl handed me this baby as a baby and I had no idea and I’ve failed this breed ! So I still am going to try my best ! Now I can’t afford this moment like 3 to 5 k for this baby I just can’t so but hopefully it will work ! She mainly needs socializing again but teaching her while she’s in mode it’s hard idk

But why the little boy let her bite his hands and she doesn’t do it hard it’s playing I can tell but now this baby isn’t calm in a car now this hasn’t been years but i tried a tool and she I have to be careful for a ecollar ! I’m getting a prong or trying it anyways but when I’m past this hardship!

    Yes sir ! It’s sad there isn’t great videos! But now I had a pointer an English pointer!! And she was my heart ! But when I say that I have been tested to my limits and I’m sadly disabled! But mine isn’t just physically but mentally! My girl handed her to me at 7 weeks old and then she wasn’t like this ! I have had dogs and I’m really been bragged on for saving and changing dog’s temperment! But this breed I’m fixing to mention is the most testing to me or has been ! And I had no idea! It isn’t talked about a lot until you see these signs lol but the baby I have is a Czech German shepherd dog ! And life happened is all I’ll say ! She is now going on a year in a month or two ! And it’s so expensive for training and I try ! But my situation idk so I started thinking okay your failing a good dog that clearly needs special training and she is at the perfect age to do this ! But as I’m looking to rescues lol oh I’m learning and feeling even more defeated! When I see full and mixed dogs being put down by the dozens! If I ever live through this tragedy in my life I will make a mission to help make whatever difference I can ! I have a lady who says she can help rehome my girl ! But I’m telling you this baby anyone can promise to do this ! They don’t know her ! At this point at least i know she hasn’t come from god knows where ! lol but I’m looking and trying to save $ so I can pay and then half these trainers don’t truly know the breed ! Rolmbo I’m in over my head ! I’m learning that the lady needs a rehoming fee cause these baby’s can be fought or used to breed ! Like at wits end ! I am going to shut up and listen to the rest of this video ! I liked and subscribed! But please I’m way far away lol but isn’t there any trainers that are good with working breeds !? Working breeds aren’t dogs that can be raised like a normal dog! I can go on and on ! I live in the country in a rv narrow at that and I have finally got help building a fence but they wouldn’t fence it so she can be with me ! I use what I have and try to work with her ! But maybe there is something wrong with her temperment idk but I don’t think it’s that ! But I hate these breeders now having all these dogs ! I share on social media now for these precious baby’s and they are in a worse shape then my girl ! But I’m loosing her we need more and i can go on and on ! She barks and is showing every sign that’s she’s unhappy! I’m with her every day but when she was separated from me and now without obedience training and then even then idk I’m failing her I swear I’m trying! Socializing her I did for the first 6 months with people being out but now my cats down lol so idk unless god moves some crazy miracle! She is going to get worse and I’m disabled I can’t run my own fence and no one cares ya know ! What your doing is great ty for helping these baby’s god bless you sir ! And many will say let her go but who else can have time to mot leave a dog to raise itself ? Idk wtd I have never failed an animal but this has been an experience of a lifetime

    can your dog walk on a hiking trail off Leash and not go up to another dog on leash? Can your dog wait calmly at a restaurant while you go to the bathroom and stay calm even when an untrained dog comes in? Can you recall your dog if it is chasing a dog full speed and about to run into the road? If the answer is yes to these then this video isn’t for you or your dog. If you see videos of these same dogs off leash on my KZread channel you will see that they still have fun but are also incredibly well behaved off leash even around the highest levels of distractions

    You can start as young as you would like. I typically wait til 3-4 months old. It depends a lot on the personality of the dog and the skills level of the handler. I use a two collar system so I will use a harness sometimes with a young dog then also a training collar for training only
