I felt like if Chico had been a little quicker to energetic play, they'd have been right as rain and chasing each other like she was with Prince and the puppy. Chico appeared to be showing a little hesitation right before the bite and that's what seemed to set her off. (Or so it seemed to me...I dunno, I'm still learning!) What I do know is that this is hands down my favorite dog training channel on KZitem. Your videos are actively helping me to communicate more effectively with my 2.5 YO hound mix and I'm so grateful for that! Thank you!

I think Chico was picking up on her energy, which wasn’t super confident / seemed a little nervous and unsure of herself. I think that’s why he kept licking her, he was trying to be submissive and lick her ears to soothe her / let her know he wasn’t a threat and wanted to be friends but she preferred Prince and the puppy bc they ignored or didn’t even really notice her energy, respectively. That can be something good or bad about puppies, depending on the situation - they’re oblivious! I think she didn’t like that Chico was focusing on her so much and wanted more space from him, but she also wanted to engage with him and couldn’t really decide what to make of his signals lol. But he was definitely a great dog for her to meet and learn from!

Corgis can be extremely difficult depending on what lines they’re from; if they’re from working lines you need to be very firm and not let them get away with *anything* bc give them an inch and they’ll take ten miles. If you say sit and they take all day to do it, they need to know that that ain’t gonna fly. Once it’s past the puppy stage, around a year, your friend should that Corgi out in a wide open space and make it sit, lie down, and walk right next to your friend when she tells it to, change directions walking, mix it up. Of course don’t be mean or cruel, but no treats, no petting, just listen to your BFF because she says so and what mom says goes, *especially* when the dog is sick of it and wants to quit. Corgis are experts at doing the bare minimum, so in order to make sure they aren’t manipulating you and only staying within their comfort zone, it’s important to make sure that they don’t always get their way and that they need to listen especially when they don’t want to do as they’re told. That said, they can be great dogs if given lots of work to do, not just puzzle toys and snuffle mats but actual disciplined work that drains them mentally and physically. It can be hard to stay ahead of them bc they’re so intelligent but if you raise them properly they’ll be your best friend for their whole life.

You, prince and your trainers are amazing. I love how you don’t sugar coat the owners, you’re blunt, to the point and don’t pacify. Your desire to help aggressive/negative behavior lessens the load of these dogs having to be surrendered, live in shelters and in some extreme cases be put down is very much appreciated. Training, although to some who find it harsh, helps prevent negative behaviors, which sadly have. not so good outcomes. A few “rough and tumble” sessions vs a lifetime in a cage in theory should be obvious choice but I guess there are some who think they still know it all and would do better yet tping on a keyboard instead of doing exactly that, lol.

Great video. I initially thought that she was trying to start some wrestling with him in the beginning. She'd just come out of a play session with two other dogs that were pretty wild, and she was trying to get him to play too. But then she attacked him when he was trying to fight her off. When he was just standing there she could lean on him, the instant he tried to push her off with his left foot is when she goes for him. 100% dominance. She wanted to do whatever she wanted with him and the second he did something about it, she tried to bite him. Not a kill bite, but for sure unfriendly; look at her nose and eyes at that moment. Now the most interesting part is after the correction. She's completely flabbergasted. She never got a correction like that. And I'm wondering if she kind of assumed you would back her up because you're on the other end of the leash. Her facial expression is gold. I don't think it will have completely fixed that behavior, but definitely around you. She might try it once again with the owner, if they're vigilant about it she will stop it after that.

I don’t know if I’m off base or if I missed something but she seems like a serious player (meaning that she could get serious fast in a playful situation).

In the last minute or so of the video when we get to see their full interaction it looks to me a bit like the black dog was putting his head over top of hers just after she jumped on him the second time and then (after he put is head over top) she jumped that third time. --makes me think he was suggesting to her to plz not dominate him b/c he can say no to her even if only a little bit. But him saying plz no, put her in the headspace to 'take on' the challenge, which she then tried to do. --That correction was SO ideal and smooth. Thoughts on my assessment? Also I have a dog that is VERY stiff when meeting other dogs. He gives me trouble still that I have not yet fully troubleshot. If you ever come to TN, I would love to be your client here! It seems like my dog REALLY appreciates hard and frequent commands to remove himself from the ruckus of other dogs when we are near them, but w/o my commands he feels the need to insert himself into most all of their high energy interactions. It just kind of surprises me that he seems appreciative of me not allowing him access to any of their goings on, until it gets much calmer. I do have more on this and other theories at play, but any thoughts?

2:57 Nice is... subjective. Just because he didn't bite or growl at her doesn't mean he's being nice, he's been crowding her the whole time. (not saying he's a bad dog) From that dog's perspective he wasn't being nice, otherwise she wouldn't have snapped, however she did go open mouth kind-of bite, which is dangerous. I wonder is he touched her neck again after she was corrected and how she reacted? I think this dog likes her personal space, and the male dog doesn't understand personal space... I think it's an unfortunate encounter. Kinda bound to go bad lol.(not blaming you tho) The puppy was excited but she was off-leash and already in a playful mood thanks to Prince, I think that's why she tolerated it. I wonder if things would've been the same off-leash? It'd be better if she walks off from pressure instead of being snappy or aggressive. Although she is dominant so I don't know if that's a choice she'd like making.

A very interesting video! Especially with the slow motion. I liked that we could hear voice over AND the original tone. To me she seemed pretty much overwhelmed and unsure how to behave and kind of afraid of "losing" the upper hand. To me it looked like she was better when there was movement, action, play. When it got slow she started to "think" and got "unsure", leading to "bad". Another thing I am curious about: Did she have to long claws? I heard that too long claws can be uncomfortable (and more) and therefore cause stress which leads to amplify problematic behaviour. She doesn't look like in pain though.

As a female she's maybe uncomfortable with this big schnauzer dog because he's constantly putting his head on top of hers, excessively licking. That wasn't very nice from him, going so upfront into her space/face. Even if he's just (dumb ;) flirting she doesn't have to like it. I got annoyed with his boldness/rudeness just from overlooking this myself. If someone would come up into my face like this I would have called him off, too 😂 Yeah, the reaction might be a little rough and over the top, but he was kinda begging for it, not stopping, not giving her space. You can see the difference with Prince and the puppy. Both are playfully nipping at her face, but both gave her respectable space and time to react comfortably herself. The Schnauzer was not very respectful.

So let’s say you have a female adult dog, and are thinking of getting a male puppy. (And state rules/law/whatever, says you need to neuter your pets) Would it be better to have them meet whilst the male dog is unneutered and before? Would anything change in the dynamic if the female met a non neutered male and then later that male got neutered? Or have they built that trust/relationship to the point where that wouldn’t change?

Joel, what are your thoughts on neutering vs. not neutering male dogs? I’ve heard a lot lately that if you’re going to neuter you should wait until the male is fully grown, like 18 months - 2 years at least. How do you think neutering affects the dog itself (as opposed to how other dogs react to it)? Do you think it makes them more or less of a target? How do you deal with males who get their testosterone flowing and want to obsessively hump every other dog? That’s how my Yorkie was until we had him snipped, he hit six months and he would hump anything not nailed down and scream at other dogs until he could run over and hump them. I was so distracted by that gorgeous Giant Schnauzer, it’s my dream dog and every time I see one I want one more! Lovely to see such a sweet unneutered male.

It is especially important to not neuter large breeds too early. They need that testosterone to fully develop their ligaments & bones. If you get a giant, I would not neuter until he's at least 2.5 years of age. I didn't neuter my giant until he was about 8 years old.

@anon e Muss see that’s the other thing though, like at that point why neuter at all? I agree it makes a lot of sense to wait 2.5 years for a Giant, I follow Senza Tempo Cane Corso and she says the males aren’t done maturing physically until 3yrs of age, so 2.5 - 3 years seems like an appropriate amount of time to wait to neuter, but at that point the dog is fully grown so it’s a much more expensive surgery (not an issue, big dogs are expensive and you should have that money handy), but what I’m more worried about is potential trauma to the dog since they’ve become so accustomed to having their testicles and the testosterone. I wonder if that’s why some people say their personalities change completely or that it can actually lead to more aggression. But my biggest question, if the idea is to wait 2+ years, is: is there still a benefit to neutering at all at that point? What about population control? I worked at a vet for 9 months and there is no way every owner is going to reliably spay their females, so if people stop neutering males I do think there would be more oopsie puppies out in the world clogging up rescues.

It always looks playful up until they've got one in their mouth. And even if they're playing, you shouldn't allow it. The birds (most likely) don't like that kind of play. Keep them on leash around the animals first, stop chasing immediately. Always train one at a time. Let them meet the big animals first, teach them to be calm around them. Then work your way down to smaller animals. Reason is that they're more likely impressed by bigger animals, so they won't try to hunt them. Also, with chickens and ducks etc, you can let them meet one by one by presenting the other animal like you would a baby. This shows the dog you're caring for them and makes it more likely that they will accept it too. Let the dogs stay in their crate while ducks are moving through the living room. Show them when you're feeding them. Try to come up with other things that show that they're family.

Let me preface this by saying that I live in a townhouse on the outskirts of Denver right now, and, prior to that, on the side of a mountain in the hills west of Denver - with never a sheep, goat, chicken, or duck in sight. So, what the hell do I know about any of this, lol. My dog that I had 2 dogs ago was a Pyr/Border Collie mix that came out of breeding program where a lady was trying to combine the two for a dog that could both herd and guard livestock, and though he had more of a Border Collie look, he was very Pyr in his temperament. He was a real deal Working Line Livestock dog, not an AKC or pet quality dog. We also had a Pyr when I was very young that ended up living with my Grandparents in the mountains as he had no problem getting over a 6' foot fence to go patrol the neighborhood he decided was his territory. The point is, though I have never been a rancher, I am familiar with working line LGDs and their temperament and have consumed a lot of information about them over the years, including the experiences of people who have trained and utilized them to keep the coyotes, foxes, and hawks at bay. So, while not trying to be a know-it-all, I know a little bit about all of this for never having done it. You are not the first person who has had issues with their LGD harassing, and killing, their poultry. LGDs don't always view poultry in the way that they do a sheep and can be more difficult to train to not kill/harass poultry. People think that LGDs don't have much Prey Drive, which is simply not true. In fact some LGDs have a very complete Prey Drive and will kill and feed themselves if the opportunity presents itself. While living in the mountains with my Pyr/BC, there was more than one occasion where I said to myself regarding my Pyr mix, "Well, I guess I don't need to feed him tonight, 'cause he just took care of that himself." I'm sure that will make plenty of people call me a bad human for 'letting' my dog harass wildlife, but, well, when a chipmunk decides to hang out on the deck of a house with three dogs and a cat living there in order to get the easy food from a bird feeder, well, that was kind of a risky and bad life decision by said chipmunk that ended up in my dog's belly, and not a lot I could do about it, lol. And I'll spare the details of other instances of my dog, my very temperamentally LGD dog, feeding himself with rodents and rabbits. Don't kid yourself because he is a 'Gaurdian' dog - you need to stop this behavior before you start ending up with dead ducks. The point of that is do NOT kid yourself - your LGD is fully capable of killing poultry if not raised and trained properly, and it sounds like that is the direction you are heading in. My suggestion is to NOT let your puppy around your ducks unsupervised while getting this all sorted out and immediately correct the behavior when you see it happen. It will be a lot harder to 'untrain' him from killing ducks once he does it than to prevent it happening in the first place. I have loads of respect for Joel, but I would first look to the experiences of others who have/had LGDs and Livestock and how they dealt with the same situation you are in. As an example, I typed "LGD chasing chickens" into Google and this is one of the many pages that showed up: www.backyardchickens.com/threads/problematic-lgd.1457741/ I'm not endorsing anything in particular on that page, simply trying to help you with where you need to look for solutions; namely to people that have had the exact same problem as you and how they dealt with it. And, again, that is NO criticism to Joel and his knowledge of dogs, just that there are people who have dealt with this exact problem you are dealing with and you should first consult them with how to properly train your LGD to be the guardian of your ducks rather than the killer and eater of them. I still miss that dog tremendously. He was a very special dog. RIP Bubba Dog, RIP, buddy ...

I am a trainer who specializes in “problem” dogs who are reactive. I also assess dogs who are quarantined with bite records at the shelter (to give them a fair shot at being seen and rescued). I tried your heel on a loose leash method all week with different dogs and it is my new favorite. I’ve never considered that my method of associating a verbal (snapping) command with a correction requires the dog to have to be told over and over-it does. Your methods are great and worked well for dog reactive dogs too. Thank you ❤

Black dog is a exceptionally calm dog as I have seen those multiple quick moves from the tan dog cause many dogs with a high drive cross the line and become aggressive. IMO you really have to be very careful with a dog like our tan dog. Not afraid but very attentive and ready to intervene. I think the owner makes a comment as his concern what another dog may do… and he’s right! great video as always! Best no BS dog trainer on the tube!

Thank you Joel, love these body language videos. What I saw was a wary, unsure but not submissive dog who met 2 much bigger male dogs and did her best to get on with them despite her nervousness. Yet she also wanted them to know that she wasn't a pushover. Her body language seemed best with the puppy, maybe because he was so obviously just there to play. The head harness, flat collar and body harness when she was with the GS (who was all over her like a rash), in tight quarters, with several people as well, pushed her way out of her comfort zone and she reacted to being 'cornered'. Given a bit more space and practice with lots of dogs, she will probably be able to get along with pretty much any dog . However she won't ever be a happy go lucky, social butterfly. And that's fine, she seems to have so many other good qualities.

It looked like Chico was backing her up and backing her up, he was licking/too much affection and she got up on him to back him off. It was slight, but I think she was reclaiming some space. It was a lot of sniffing and if it would have been outside, or if there was more wiggle room she may not have done that. Who knows. 🤷🏼♀️

My initial impression of her was that she didn't seem into the schnauzer's demeanor...he was very flirty with her. He showed signs of wanting to mount her, which may have caused her to preemptively try to put herself above him, to avoid that situation. He continued to press her, which she reprimanded him for. Similar thing almost happened with the lab pup for a split second...she wants to play, but seems sensitive to any slight flirting or mounting behavior. Funny thing is, I started wondering midway through if she had been bred before, then you actually said she'd had puppies. Imo, and as a woman, there are certain subtleties we catch onto rather quickly when interacting with the opposite sex. Maybe she isn't as much in the wrong for her reaction. A guy would get the same reaction from me if I politely said I'm not interested, I just want to be friends. Then I feel forced to step it up a notch and say, seriously dude, I'm not joking. Don't take my kindness as weakness. Then I get called a bitch when I'm forced to act out, lol.

This female dog didn't seem that comfortable At 3:57(9:45) you can see the whites of her eyes(for reference, her eyes look better here 5:09(11:07), and she looked the best when playing), which alone isn't the worst but then we have a furrowed brow 10:47 which also shows that the dog is uncomfortable, tense. I think I notice a pattern. 11:13 1st He sniffs her neck, she jumps around after a second, she climbs on him so stop immobilize him. 11:59 2nd He touches her neck/back again, she doesn't like it, climbs up again. He lip licks so she stops.(there's one at 11:21 too). 12:15 She backs away, dodging him to get space, male dog doesn't stop. The backing away doesn't stop him, so she jumps again. 12:24 He gets close to her neck again, she snaps. Also the whites of her eyes are visible almost throughout the whole encounter, not just that 1 timestamp I wrote. I think one of the problems was that the big furry dog didn't give release(not mean, just didn't know better), he just kept inspecting her, over and over never stopping and wasn't in a playful mood which added tension. I think taking a break would've been useful for both dogs.

YASSSSSS! This is what I need, more of this! Slow motion, pointing out body language like how the tail is wagging etc., and watching the situation play out. Thanks so much Joel! I'd love to see more of this, so helpful for reading my own dog and being able to know when to let something go or how and when to address the situations. The tail seems to be more of a tell than I realize, ears, body posture, hair, sounds... So much to it, I could watch 100 hours of this type of thing to learn better. One thing I noticed is the bigger dog stepped into her a few times which pushed her backward. After a few times of being pushed back with body pressure, she climbed up. Feels to me like she was trying to say "you're not pushing me around". She made her point to the other dog and so she was done, maybe with or without human intervention and correction?

Couple thoughts - both on leashes - smaller space, more people. She changed a little the times that Chico was called off. She did a lip lick during Joel’s correction of her.

I'm a local educator on dog reactivity and this is really interesting. It seems like she's not forward/dominant but lacks good social skills so when Chico was a bit over bearing with licking her she moved up on him to stop the behavior and then exploded (like almost an overreaction) instead of passively moving away or communicating well. This is very similar to my doberman mix. Good video!

Joel, I think her meeting Prince outside carried over to the black puppy interaction, which were both positive. I think what she did inside is what the owners have to be careful with. These dogs, dogs with reactivity tendencies are never 100% ok with other dogs. So many variables, best advice is correct that jumping on another dog immediately.

Loved this video - We adopted a female pup this summer from an acquaintance who tried to rescue her from an abusive situation but couldn't get her to socialize with their dogs due to her reactivity. Our only other pup at the time was an unneutered one year old lab, they did well from the start - he's confident and without aggression, he was willing to accept her corrections without a fight and we rarely needed to interfere. I felt he taught her appropriate behavior better than we could. She had the piloerection as well initially which made me nervous but we supervised, didn't interfere and watched as she slowly understood the rules of play and acceptable corrections first with our pup then with others we trusted. So fascinating, and I never understood the psychology behind it, we just went with our instinct (and knowledge gained from Joel and other balanced trainers) and she's doing amazing. This was so so interesting! Thank you! P.S. Please keep the dog psychology/body language videos coming!

She’s a sassy lil b! 😅 I think him being in tact in this case, actually made her challenge him more than she may have otherwise. Here’s my VERY anthropomorphic take: He was mobbing her with licks and trying to hover his head over hers… but not very confidently. He’s basically trying to be slick and get out of the “friend zone” while swearing it’s totally platonic. I think she had an attitude from the beginning like “it’s not that kind of party bro. You’re a simp and now I’m your boss.” And they’ll probably be buddies now that he knows his place with her. 😂

Great video about body language. I don’t know much about dog body language, and I really like the way you explain it. I have two horses, and some people say the only thing faster than a horse’s reaction, is another horse… but you have great reaction time, for a human. (Both of my horses ride in a bit-less bridle, or in a rope halter) I know a horse’s body language; the happy; the angst, frustration, elation and calm. I just don’t know anything about, and am trying to learn, about dog behaviour/body language. I want to be as fluent and informed as I can be, like the way I was for my horses. If and when I have a dog of my own.

I find that horses and dogs have extremely similar behaviors / energy! The way they establish hierarchy / dominance is super similar and they’re herd animals, which is very similar to dog pack structure. If anything I think horses are more difficult to read bc they’re prey animals and are less inclined to trust us instinctively than dogs. I really recommend watching Senza Tempo Cane Corso’s older videos, she hasn’t been able to do much pack content lately but she’s working back towards it. She and Joel follow each other, she’s actually how I found Joel’s channel!

@@high-bi-password I find horse’s easiest to read, maybe because I am used to them. They are prey animals, they sense pressure in eye contact/posture as a push/pressure. The release is the reward. Positive reward is treats or retreat. I don’t know enough about dogs yet to agree that the established hierarchy is similar… but the energy is completely different. (Pats are positive, voice is positive, eye contact is positive reinforcement for dogs) Horses and other prey animals only want to run if ambushed, as their flight is the best option for defence. Dogs are predators, eyes facing forwards, relying on the pack to hunt and coordinate for offence/attack. Same as humans. We bond better with dogs because we are also predators. (Have forward facing eyes, bond over sustained contact, etc.) Edit: animals know the difference, my horses don’t react to deer the same way they would react to a coyote. Same applies to humans. I am still learning though, and I appreciate your comment. I’ll check out that channel for sure!

My dog is very similar to this dog except Layla gets face to face immediately to size up the other dog. Almost every time. She then chooses to play or to fake bite like this dog in the video. Layla is a spayed female and she generally does worst with other spayed females. I personally think it is a dominance thing. She does not trust the other dog, so they better bow down to her or this will happen.

She was showing back of signs. 1:16, ears back, slight whale, 1:20 taking steps back ears still pinned back. However the male dog has an upright over body posture, that she perceives as aggressive. Her reaction to stop it is putting her paws up on him, an escalation of threat. She waits for him to back of but he doesn't, so she bites.

Joel, could it be that when outside with lots more space and less tension be why she took to prince and then the puppy but once in smaller confines senses are heightened? Also, even though the males aren’t neutered, they do have their own personalities and maybe the sweet boy wasn’t as assertive and dominant like Prince was right from the jump behind the gate. Prince knows what the deal is and by the third dog maybe she got her dominant confidence back as the threat level started high and trickled? I may be talking out of my rear but I love learning about things like this.

I'm sort of in disagreement with your assessment here. Watching the video of her initially with Prince behind the fence is when she looks the most relaxed. If you take the tail out of the equation, and just look at the rest of her body language, she was a little uncomfortable once Prince was in the pen with her and she had the muzzle on. Her ears pinned, but she still was playful. However once the lab puppy was introduced her body language looks so much more rigid and unhappy. Ears totally pinned, panting a bit. Frankly I don't think she liked the puppy that much and was trying to find the line between wanting to calm him down and tell him off for being too much without being a dick. But the real negative body language came with the third dog. Look at her face. Her muzzle is so tightly closed, her ears are tightly pinned, her brow is incredibly furrowed and her eyes are whale eyeing so much. Her body was stiff the whole time. Again, forget the wag, look at all the other signals. Nothing about the interaction she enjoyed. Maybe she didn't like how much the dog was in her face, licking her ears! She just met him for god sake. Perhaps it's the fact they met inside in an enclosed space. Whatever it is, she was so uncomfortable and she had enough. Paws on looks like her way of saying 'stop that, enough now' without going to something more physical. She doesn't want to bite, like you said. I actually think the puppy needed telling off, and so did the third dog for being in her face. It was rude. But hey, I could be wrong. That's just my observation

She seemed the most comfortable with price tbh! I think when he added the puppy with prince it was overwhelming for her. Two dogs were trying to play with her at the same time. I would be overwhelmed if two people were pulling me for my attention. The paws up is definitely a “hey relax, this is too much!” With the puppy I saw her a bit more comfortable compared to the black one on leash. She was also trying to tell the puppy to calm down I’m older than you and we need to introduce ourselves first. I’m going to be honest I’ve watch this guys videos today and I don’t agree with his methods. He doesn’t seem to praise the dogs when they do what he wants. He gives corrections during proper times but doesn’t tell the dog what they are doing wrong. He also talks to dogs as if they understand full sentences. “Stop it sit down” YANK! An easy “ah ah, sit” dog sits “yes good sit!” Idk I’m not trying to come off as a hater. It just makes me cringe. I also want to put it out there that, dogs don’t need to like other dogs! They just need to understand that they need to control themselves when being handled.
