Meh, I don't think the dog was hurt but what the officer did was an example of a piss poor correction.
Anytime you lose your temper and go off on a dog in a situation like that, it is counterproductive. 99% of the time a dog will do whatever it takes to please it's handler. The dog in the vid probably did not understand what was expected of him…… Pretty soft dog though. Do that to my dogs and you'll most likely not do it again. |

Not the right way to correct a training problem with a canine... Perhaps, but not abuse either. Where did I say that? Actually, you haven't said much of anything. I made a clear statement on the actions of the police officer towards the canine. Try to keep up. |

As we know from the GD "police academy," K9 officers are in fact officers. So that cop assaulted another officer.
But, it's a cop getting assaulted. And it's by another cop. So I really have no idea what GD is going to do with this one. It's like dividing by zero twice.

For many of us we obeyed our parents because our dad's the fear in our hearts of punishment for wrongdoing. A strong willed dog bred for the work is a dangerous weapon....it has to be controlled and the weak willed will do poorly at such work. Watch a momma bear correct her cubs sometime... I'm not sure if he even go that dogs attention is was a pretty mild correction....once a dog has his blood up....they feel no pain and its difficult sometimes when they are in drive to get their attention.... |

This guy understands. The hardest thing I had to break my APBT of, was chasing any four legged creature in the yard. A dog that would otherwise listen to every command I gave her. In her old age, she tolerates the chickens and barn cats without question. The deer still put her in full game mode. |

You've already admitted that you didn't know what you were posting about. When that was pointed out, you tried to deflect the issue of your irresponsibility by acting like the real issue was my somehow being overly sensitive. Weak.

I want to be sure what I'm learning is correct. Anytime a handler/trainer loses his/her temper and self control anything after that becomes counter productive. To be a successful trainer, you must remain calm…… that IS the most effective way to train a K9 and that is what dogs respond best to. When I started training dogs for Shutzhund, a old very successful trainer/breeder told me " whatever you are feeling goes right down the leash into the dog." I have found this to be true over the last 40 some years. It is especially true when trying to train high drive dominant type dogs. They don't respond well to bullying, being hit or threatened…… they are generally wired not to take any shit and can act aggressively when challenged …… at the very least, it creates conflict with the dog and the relationship with the handler can suffer. There are ways to correct these dogs without reverting to " hands on " corrections or lashing out and loosing your shit. Hitting a dog with a leash and acting confrontational is not the way to go. My personal dogs will not except this treatment and trying to "train" them using such methods would be a disaster. 99% of the time, a dog will do whatever it can to please a handler. Often times, when a dog does not do what you want it to, it is because it does not know what is expected of it, has been poorly trained, or is a victim of it's own high drive and becomes "locked" into a behavior. Dogs respond best to a calm, confident, fair and even handed trainer. Hitting a working dog with a leash, etc. is a no go with any trainer I have ever worked with….. again, counter productive. I know there are ham fisted ignorant trainers out there that think you should train a dog with a 2x4 but they are the types that end up with confused dogs full of conflict and are no where near the animals they could be. You do not want a dog that works out of fear…… you want a dog that is happy to do the work and that respects the handler. YMMV!!! |

There are rules, just like bowling: Patrol leaders said they initially planned to discipline Jones but decided to fire him when then-Gov. Mike Easley's office intervened. In its ruling, the court notes testimony from Jones' former supervisor, Lt. Col. Cecil Lockley, who said, "They want him gone," referring to the governor's office, and "the decision regarding Sgt. Jones' career was predetermined, not by the Patrol's disciplinary process but by an outside entity." This video, however, sure isn't that case. |

That is a true statement….. the weak WILLED….. not the physically weak. One of the best trainers I ever met was a elderly women that weighed about 90 pounds. She did not train her dogs with threat of physical corrections….. she trained her dogs with her WILL. She had a couple of the best working Rottweilers I have ever seen. They were hard dominant dogs but she handled them like they were Goldens. A ham fisted physically aggressive trainer/handler would have been eaten by these dogs. |

There are ways to correct these dogs without reverting to " hands on " corrections or lashing out and loosing your shit. Hitting a dog with a leash and acting confrontational is not the way to go. My personal dogs will not except this treatment and trying to "train" them using such methods would be a disaster. 99% of the time, a dog will do whatever it can to please a handler. Often times, when a dog does not do what you want it to, it is because it does not know what is expected of it, has been poorly trained, or is a victim of it's own high drive and becomes "locked" into a behavior. Dogs respond best to a calm, confident, fair and even handed trainer. Hitting a working dog with a leash, etc. is a no go with any trainer I have ever worked with….. again, counter productive. I know there are ham fisted ignorant trainers out there that think you should train a dog with a 2x4 but they are the types that end up with confused dogs full of conflict and are no where near the animals they could be. You do not want a dog that works out of fear…… you want a dog that is happy to do the work and that respects the handler. YMMV!!! Good information. I guess I should apologize for being a smartass. So. .. I'm sorry for being a smartass. |

a leash pop is whipping now? those were gentle corrections. Those were improper corrections. Trainer? Yes. K9 handler? Yes.The dog whisper? No. Citation? I'm just here to learn. I want to be sure what I'm learning is correct. Anytime a handler/trainer loses his/her temper and self control anything after that becomes counter productive. To be a successful trainer, you must remain calm…… that IS the most effective way to train a K9 and that is what dogs respond best to. When I started training dogs for Shutzhund, a old very successful trainer/breeder told me " whatever you are feeling goes right down the leash into the dog." I have found this to be true over the last 40 some years. It is especially true when trying to train high drive dominant type dogs. They don't respond well to bullying, being hit or threatened…… they are generally wired not to take any shit and can act aggressively when challenged …… at the very least, it creates conflict with the dog and the relationship with the handler can suffer.

In most cases, if the dog understands what you want it to do, they will do it. Most dogs want to please their owners. |
