There are cases where the dog is not compatible to the house. There are people that don't have the strength. There are people who don't have the willpower, who are not active in the exercise world and they have a type of dog that requires a lot of exercise so that dog is not compatible with that environment. When I take the dog away from that environment, the dog changes.
Through the years I've learned to gain the trust of humans. I'm really good at gaining the trust of animals and I have developed the same ability with humans. I don't make people feel wrong, I just make people aware. I have learned to make people laugh.
People say I train dogs, but in many ways I train people.
The pack is very important for a dog. Once you give him the right pack and the right energy, you look at him.
Any time you're working in the world of taming animals, you're going to get hurt. But it's a rush that we get.
Aggression is not a breed thing. Its a state of mind, and it comes from how the human is with the dog. There are four levels of energy, regardless of the breed: low, medium, high, very high. The idea is to get a dog in your same level or lower than you.
I'm naturally a loud person. It can be a bit overpowering.
Always walk out the door ahead of your dog when leaving the house. This will show your dog who is in the leadership role.
Dogs have found themselves in an odd predicament by living with humans. In the wild, dogs don't need humans to achieve balance. They have a pack leader, work for food and travel with the pack. When we bring them into our world, we need to help them achieve balance by fulfilling their needs as nature intended. This takes exercise and discipline before affection, and always maintaining your calm, assertive pack leadership.
I was blessed to grow up on a farm, and when you're a farm boy, exercise is part of your lifestyle. Like it or not, that environment makes you work out. On the farm, nature is your gym. You walk and run and swim and have to do a lot of work with animals too.
I think my life has everything, you know; it has comedy, has drama, has action.
No dog is too much for me to handle. I rehabilitate dogs, I train people. I am the dog whisperer.
On walks, make sure that your dog is not in front of you, pulling you down the street. Instead, keep your dog to your side or behind you. This will also demonstrate to your dog that you are the alpha figure.
'The Dog Whisperer' to me is a show that had a passion, and it helped me save relationships.
