How do you get rid of tools? Educate the masses.

I'm done, not holding back anymore. Dog owners, you need to wake up and understand what's been done to you.

Create an enemy, fight an enemy and make off like bandits. That's how Robert Cabral and his cronies built the "Pet Care Conglomerate" that includes all the tools of IGP. The treats, the toys, the prongs and ecollars, the muzzles, the crates etc. These tools do not belong in pet stores - and they do not belong in your hands.

IGP trainers keep beating their chest about the best of the best when it comes to behaviors. Ivan Balabanov sat on a camera and declared that ONLY IGP trainers like him should work in behaviors. How does Robert Cabral define the word? What a joke.

IGP which included Robert Cabral shouldn't be in the behavioral ring at all. The word behavior is not a word that you take your best guess at when you're up to your ass in the behavior ring. While beating your chest declaring yourselves the best. But science doesn't belong in dog training right? Your words. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F1B01jcu58Y&t=225s

Over 2 years Taylor is working with this dog - completely backward by the way. The environment is punishing the dog. The owners are unwittingly punishing the dog. And they are rewarding 2 kinds of punishment. Just how is the dog supposed to process that? And we wonder why it's not working?

It's dog training - or behavioral psychology. There is no psychology to reward and punishment. This is all Konrad Most - Inducements. Inducement - a thing that persuades or influences someone to do something. Konrad Most - food and affection.

This is complete and utter lack of understanding of what a behavior is, lack of understanding of Positive Reinforcement and Operant Conditioning really is. These trainers have you creating this tiny world of reward and punishment for your dog to Operantly Condition themselves to. And people are wondering why this isn't working? You're taking the dogs mind and brain away - that's the ultimate in punishment.

The Belgian Malinois is also known as the Belgian Shepherd. These are potent dogs, the German Shepherd on steroids. They have needs - but tend not to get their needs met. Ever wonder why trainers don't push you to let the dog be a dog and let the breed be the breed? Does this Shepherd ever get to be a Belgian Shepherd?

Violence begins where knowledge ends. Why do trainers reach for violence right away? Cause it's just a job to them, a way to make money. If they had any knowledge of the dog - this wouldn't be happening. I can't watch anymore of Dog Daddy abusing dogs, I can't believe millions cheer this on. Dog owners are so desperate - cause nothing else worked.

You cannot "train" a dog to behave. Why? Let the father of Operant Conditioning explain it to you. The dog can't help their behavior - and neither can the animal that you are.

You cannot "train" a dog to behave - that's reality. That's not how behaviors work at all. Yet, nobody wants to define the word "behavior". What is a behavior? It's your body's response to something in the environment. In the case of fight or flight - it's a chemical response. Cortisol and adrenaline and such. If a vet can't understand how cortisol creates a fight or flight response that is aggression and reactivity - then we have some serious issues.

Mr. Science Doesn't Belong In Dog Training. Well, too bad, I'm bringing Skinner back and giving the owners the knowledge to fire you.

Chris threatened me over this video already. Lets see if I can make him blow a gasket. This guy declares that he has a PhD in Psychology? Anyone that has knowledge of Behavioral Sciences won't need tools. This alone makes Chris a fraud. He's too scared to get on camera to do a podcast - cause I will expose him as the fraud that he is.

I didn't put any formal training into Monty - it's all understanding of behavioral psychology. Ability to go to a dog park is the number one request I've gotten from dog owners. And that isn't hard to accomplish. But, to be cool in a dog park - dogs need to be independent - training creates a dependent dog. Monty is a free thinking dog - he's got freedom of choice - and freedom of decision. I don't need to "recall" my dog - why do you?

The onus is on Monty - stay there scared or join me in calm. I'm not making the tractor a big deal - I'm showing my dog that I'm not scared of the tractor. I'm not getting hurt by the tractor. Come join me, meet this thing - learn through social cognition - not dog training.

Dogs can rationalize, just takes a little longer. But dog training doesn't allow the dog to rationalize - they tell you to reward or punish a dog right away. Dog training is taking away the need and ability to learn to rationalize. Taking away the dogs need to figure it out, to make it not a big deal. That's a serious issue today.

I dare any "dog trainer" to react to this video - and debunk it. You won't cause you'll look like a fool. You cannot "train" a dog to behave - that's reality. It flies in the face of what a behavior is. Learning psychology will allow you to understand your dog and build a relationship. Dog training removes relationship - removes the trust, removes the respect. You will never be confident in that which you do not trust. You will never respect that which you do not trust. It's trust and respect that builds confidence in a relationship. If one is missing - It's a toxic relationship. You cannot "train" a relationship with inducements and compulsions.

It's cause and effect - the effect is the behavior. Something is causing the behavior - but what is it? Stop focusing on the behavior - and instead focus on the cause. But you need some help understanding the cause before you can fix it.

I love the Cane Corso, have them running dog parks here. Shade must be huge by now, must be a handsome dog? Shade must be the slowest growing dog ever? Any other clients?

Helping your dog shouldn't cost an arm and a leg. But for that $100, you will get all the knowledge and understanding that you need. You will understand why your dog is acting out - and you will understand how to help your dog. No need to take notes, I will record the session for you. If you're ok with it being public to help others, wonderful. If you're not, it'll be unlisted so nobody else can see it. I respect peoples privacy - 100%.

Can we come together as a society and stop this stupidity train for a little bit? Millions of dogs have been executed in the last 15 years by dog trainers and people like this that couldn't define the word "behavior" in the first place.

You can't train cortisol and adrenaline? And you sure as heck can't learn when you're jumped up on cortisol - neither can the dog. Why are trainers telling you to reward and punish your dog for a cortisol response? It's hormones? Something is causing your dog to display aggression and reactivity - and that cause is cortisol. There is a reason that dog trainers don't like me - I'm not good for business.

The job of Positive Reinforcement is to create the behavior issues - and guarantee upon failure - that you're going into balanced training.
