Alright, folks… you ever been out walking your dog, and some random stranger runs up and starts baby-talking them to death? Yeah. We gotta stop this madness. Here’s how to handle it: 1️⃣ Drop the leash. (Trust me, this is important.) 2️⃣ Walk up to the offender. (Yes, offender—because this is a crime.) 3️⃣ Reach back… and let your palm gently remind them to NEVER do that again. ✋😂 Now, I’m not saying you should actually do this… but I am saying, STOP baby-talking strangers’ dogs! It’s weird, it’s annoying, and it’s gotta go. If you want to learn how to train your dog from Zero to Hero...

Look, just because a dog is cute doesn’t mean you get to pet it. That little Rottweiler? She doesn’t want your love, and neither do I. 🤷‍♂️ Always ask permission before reaching for someone’s dog—99% of the time, the answer is NO. Just like I don’t need to pet you, you don’t need to pet my dog. If you want to learn how to train your dog from Zero to Hero...

“Yeah, this dog ain’t gonna do NOTHING. He won’t even bark! Where’d you get him? The pound?” 🤣 But see, that’s the point. A real protection dog doesn’t just bark like crazy for no reason. He stays cool, watches the situation, and acts only when it’s time. And trust me… when it’s time? You do not wanna be on the receiving end.

Bruno the Doberman is 6 months old and already REFUSING to walk. Here’s why this happens and how to fix it: 1️⃣ Harnesses suck – They give your dog too much leverage and zero control. 2️⃣ Prong collars work – Power steering for your dog. Bruno’s owner is 65… she needs control, not a wrestling match. 3️⃣ Your dog is testing you – If they realize flopping works, they’ll keep doing it. 4️⃣ Training matters – This isn’t cute. It’s a habit that’ll get worse as they grow. 🔥 If your walks look like this disaster, you need The Perfect Walk course - LINK IN PROFILE #DogTraining #puppytraining #puppyfun #dogoftheday #puppytrainer #dogobediencetraining #balanceddogtraining #dogsaregreat #recall #puppytrain #k9trainer #dogobedience #dogbehavior #dogtrainingtips

Most people should NEVER own a Belgian Malinois. Here’s why… 👀🐕 BTSK9_ breaks it down: 🔹 1️⃣ Unlimited Energy – Skip a workout? They won’t. Instead, they’ll remodel your living room… with their teeth. 😬 🔹 2️⃣ Extreme Drive – These dogs must have a job. No structure? They’ll create their own… and you won’t like it. 🔹 3️⃣ Not Your Average Family Pet – Just because they serve in police & military doesn’t mean they’ll thrive in a suburban home. Only get one if you’re 100% ready for the challenge. Otherwise, you’ll have a land shark on your hands. 🦈 If you want to learn how to train your dog from Zero to Hero...

Avoiding Littermate Syndrome is crucial for raising a well-behaved dog! Here are 3 essential tips to prevent it: 1️⃣ Don’t buy two puppies at once! Ethical breeders won’t sell littermates together. 2️⃣ Raise one puppy at a time. Wait until it's at least 2 years old before getting another. 3️⃣ Socialize wisely. Short, structured interactions with other dogs—your puppy should bond with YOU first! If you want to learn how to train your dog from Zero to Hero...

So you want a legit protection dog? Be ready to drop at least $100K. 💵 But here’s what nobody tells you: 1️⃣ You can’t just buy one and expect it to work—it’s not a security system. 2️⃣ Without constant training, your dog might never bite when needed… or worse, lose control. 3️⃣ You’ll need a skilled trainer & decoy just to keep that dog sharp. 4️⃣ It’s like buying a sports car—if you don’t maintain it, it won’t perform when you need it.

Alright, y’all. You wanna train like a real pro? Then you need the right tools. And don’t just take my word for it—I got some of the best trainers in the game to back me up.Erik Good, Justin Rigney, and Ronnie Manganiello are dropping straight 🔥 in this one. 🔥 TOP 3 Training Tools (Real Trainers Approved): 1️⃣ E-Collar – NOT a shock collar, people. When used correctly, this is the best way to communicate with your dog at a distance 🎯 2️⃣ Prong Collar – The haters will cry, but this mimics how a mama dog corrects her pups. Use it right, and it’s a game-changer 🐕💪 3️⃣ Treat Pouch – Reward the behaviors you like. If you’re not reinforcing good behavior, you’re losing the game 🎟️ 👀 BONUS: Get yourself a real leash—no bungee cords, no flexi-leads, just a solid leather or biothane leash that’ll last a lifetime.

Always so proud of my daughter Elora. At 6 years old she’s ready to conquer the world. She handles a Rottweiler 2x her size better than most adults handle dogs half their size. Training helps but confidence and mindset are essential. And for those interested, Thor the Rottweiler is available for purchase $15k. Fully trained Male 16 months old. Excellent dog for a family with kids. Email my team at info@diyk9.com to apply.

Not all protection dogs are created equal. Some bark loud but won’t do a damn thing when it counts. This one? He didn’t look like much… at first. 1️⃣ No barking. No growling. Looked soft. 2️⃣ Put him to the test… Would he actually bite? 3️⃣ SPOILER ALERT: Oh. My. GOD. That boy BITES. 😳 💡 Lesson: Don’t judge a dog by its cover. And if you’re out here petting random dogs in public—STOP. You never know what they’re trained to do. #dogtrainerreacts #dogtrainingfundamentals #protectiondog #protectiondogtraining #DogTraining #puppytraining #puppyfun #dogoftheday #puppytrainer #dogobediencetraining #balanceddogtraining #dogsaregreat #recall #puppytrain #k9trainer #dogobedience #dogbehavior #dogtrainingtips
