As a previous pit owner. Never had a better dog. Protected me while prego. No one was allowed near me.. nose push away to keep me safe lol. ( never aggressive) itβs how you train & love a dog.. any dog can be mean if they have a horrible owner- When my son was born., omg! Did NOT leave his side.. crib watching. Slept at corner of his bed. Followed him EVERYWHERE! Kept him safe., Iβm blessed to have seen that beautiful time. My guy has passed but it was so beautiful & it will stay in my heart forever.
Omg so cute of nose pushes
My pittie would get on his back and lick my off off the bed till she got off lol he didnβt want anyone on my bed but when Iβd tell him to stop he always stopped lol
My pit is the exact same. She gets a little feisty if a stranger gets too close while pregnant, but only if she notices itβs making me nervous.
I knew theyβd make the cut. Pittes are the best β€
If purchased from a reputable breeder, I agree.
The problem with pits is that sometimes that game line is bred into the pet line. That and inexperienced owners.
As a trainer, I would not recommend a cattle dog to a novice anymore than you would recommend a Belgian Malinois to a novice for much the same reasons. And they come juiced up right on ready from sunup to sundown. That can make it hell on anybody that doesnβt have that kind of energy level or doesnβt know how to direct it. And Iβm not trying to be rude by stating the obvious but they bite they were bred to nip and they will do just that they will find a way to get away to relieve that nip energy, shorts like yours just made it so much harder for those of us who just have to take up the slack in rescue
As a trainer, I disagree with all three of his recommendations. None of these dogs are good for the average dog owner. They all require intense and consistent training that most people just can’t give. Get a nice labrador.
β@@sarahmichelle5902I actually have to agree.
β@@sarahmichelle5902pitbulls aren’t high maintenance breeds. They’re very human friendly. Only thing I’ll say is they can be dog reactive but if both parents are dog friendly, then you’re good
Lol. I’ve had two dogs now that I hear are not for the “novice/beginner/know nothing dog owner”. An American Akita my dad brought home when I was 16 and a red heeler that recently passed away. I did absolutely zero training with these dogs yet they were both so smart and obedient you would think they were properly trained. Both would never leave my side. I could walk my red heeler unleashed without worry even when someone else was walking their dog nearby. All I did was spend a lot of time with them as puppies and sort of imprint on them who was the boss through a combo of both a lot of interaction with them starting at a young age and like a parent showing my displeasure to discipline them.
β @@segapena5033 dude that is training
1 slight correction, not all labradoodles will be hypoallergenic (and hypoallergenic dog is a sketchy term anyway as most people truly allergic to dogs will still be allergic to hypoallergenic dogs) as you are combining 2 fur types you have 50:50 chance depending what the cross will inherit.
Yeah…as a trainer and a groomer…I cringed so hard when he said labradoodle and hypoallergenic π¬
Yes, most people are allergic to dog dander, not hair, so doodles are not hypoallergenic.
Many of them still shed too. Iβve got a goldendoodle and he sheds lightly, but his hairs are so fine and wispy that they stick to everything and canβt even be lint rolled out of your clothes.
Itβs not really a sketchy term if youβre familiar with the English language βhypoβ means less than usual
I mean my dad is allergic to normal dogs but was totally fine around my labradoodle
Itβs not 50/50 as poodle hair is dominant but itβs not 100%. My wife is super sensitive to most allergens including dog and our poodle works great with her.
Every doodle I’ve met has been insane
Not sure why he would recommend a byb mix that’s all over the place in temperament. He should have just said, a shelter dog.
Fr, I work with lots of dogs and there are a handfull of doodles I have met that I genuinely like, because they’re well raised and well trained.
It’s the 50+ other ones that I work with who are All fucking crazy and drive me up the wall that make me dislike them as a “breed”
I have one and she is crazy, but sheβs also one of the smartest most loving dogs ever. Doodles make great family pets.
I have a boy doodle lab mix… Calm as ever. Lazy unless a walk or a ball is involved. Other than that. Calm calm calm.
@@owyn-s literally proved my point by saying she’s crazy. And so many other purebred, well bred, ethically bred dogs would make good family pets. Anyone who buys a doodle is supporting backyard breeding. If you wanted a mutt so badly, you could easily just go to the shelter
As a groomer, some doodles are not fully hypoallergenic. Poodles are, however they are mixed with a breed that sheds and can as a result be non hypoallergenic. Also doodles are so popular right now, there is tons of inbreeding going on which is causing all sorts of health and behavioral problems. They are great family dogs and if you are interested in getting one, please please do your research for a reputable breeder and ask your local groomer about the correct grooming regimen you’re going to need both at home and in the salon. Grooming salons are overrun right now with matted doodles that are not being brushed properly at home. They are high maintenance if you want a long, fluffy coat. Not the dog for everyone, but can be a great dog.
Yes but at the same time doodles of any kind are completely unnecessary. Why even get an ethically bred one (if that even exists?!) when you come get another breed that looks very similar eg a toy poodle or a Maltese.
β@@chanellethomas6886 exactly! For any doodle type, you can get an actual poodle with the exact same look except with a predictable temperament and fur type
i was going to say the same thing. i’ve become a groomer amidst the doodle craze and the f1 pups are usually okay but inbreeding and whatnot is a big problem i see. a lot of people constantly come in saying they have original goldendoodles, labradoodles, or f1s and even as a new groomer and someone who owns cats i can tell at a glance that they were scammed. most of them are too proud to be told they were lied to so i’ve learned to keep it to myself (older groomers usually dont and occasionally i do love to see a pet parent argue about their inbred dog). most doodles i meet are super sweet but have no sense of space. out of the dozens i’ve met i’ve probably only been impressed by a handful
Topics like this need more pet groomers telling people how much care/maintenance a little/non shedding dog needs.
AKA if you’re too lazy to brush the dog daily you’ll need to do more visits to the groomers to keep it shortish because matting is very painful and the dog may even need to be sedated to get the matting off.
Agreed Iβm a groomer as well. You canβt predict their temperament, size, health, etc. I have pictures of desheds Iβve done on doodles. Highly dont recommend
Australian cattle dogs need to come with the VERY important note, they are WORKING dogs they NEED to run and work, if you donβt let them do that they will destroy your home
Not necessarily running or working they need metal stimulation.
Mental stimulation is right. I watched an Australian Working Dog Rescue livestream and they made this point. They spoke about a dog they adopted to a guy who lives in an apartment, but fishes for a living and takes the dog out on his boat. By the end of the day the dog’s happy to come back to the little apartment and chill out.
We had one of these when I was younger. It would heard my friends, chase the neighbor kids, slam the door behind you when you left. We had no idea what we were getting into when we bought her. I miss that little monster.
@@MeadowsMiniFarm can confirm. Australian Shepardβs do love Metal. My dogs favorite band is WhiteChapel
My cattle dog was the only dog Iβve ever regretted getting
We had an Australian Cattle Dog/ Labrador mix. That dude was on another plain of consciousness for a dog. He was almost like a human trapped in a dogs body he was so smart. I think the natural intelligence of the Heeler and the charisma of the Lab really came out in his personality. Goes to show ya that mutts can surprise you!
What kind of Lab? Red(and yes these are a real breed of dog but most people seem to not know what they are lol) Yellow, Chocolate, or Black? Cuz they have differing levels of intelligences as far as I can tell because a friend of mine had 2 black labs and those 2 were so much smarter then my red labs I mean one of mine literally jumped out of a moving car so that’s just proof mine were stupid lol the car was only going like 5MPH so he didn’t get that hurt but still.
@@KenpachiZaraki001 black lab haha!
@@jameskile5113 so at least the dog was smart unlike mine who if they were a Australian Cattle Dog/Red Lab mix π
Give an example please
Both are super great dogs
Before you get a doodle mix make sure you can afford to take them to the grooming salon every couple months. Depending on the coat type and cost of living in your area it can easily be 70-100 bucks to get them groomed, and if you don’t brush them every day or two they will get matted
You can also learn how to cut fur. Like… My aunt worked at a beaty salon and she was very used at cutting hair with scissors or the machine. One day she noticed we were spending too much with our Doodle mix (even tho she was a small breed, the pet shop we used to go had a nasty price) and tried to cut her fur one day. It ended up so well our doodle never went to a groomer ever again. We bathed her and our other dogs inside our house and it was easier to take care of her fur by ourselves than going to a groomer.
we have teo poodles (same fur) and we just got a dog cutting machine (bit like a razor where you can adjust the length on the front piece to your desired fur length) and just groom them ourselves. If you just do a simple cut every few weeks it takes like 15-20 mins each so it’s fast and affordable. We take them to a professional groomer about once a year.
I agree! Plus they arenβt hypo allergenic
@@reneelittle2055yes they areπ‘ i have one!!!
“Herd your children” ππ
Most kids need herding.
Get to work doggo.
I have heard stories about how herding dogs have herded humans without them realizing it (at first). Time for bed => dog starts subtly acting in a way to get the human to do their bedtime ritual.
Personally, I’m picturing calling dinner time and the family pet starts corralling the kids to the dinner table. π
Not funny, you may have to get rid of the dog.
Itβs accurate though. We had a herding dog when I was growing up and he herded me π€£π€£
Bluey!!!!
“They may try to herd your children” ππ
My labradoodle is the best trainined dog I’ve ever met and we basically just talk to him like a person, super easy. Great breed!!
I agree I got one and he’s the best dog ever can’t believe all these comments trashing them
Not a breed. Just a mix or mongrel if you prefer. A mix, sold for huge money to gullible who think they and other doodles are a breed. Find them at your local shelter for next to no money.
@@tomtom-or3wc its bc theyre unpredictable like all mutts and unethically bred
Am I the only one who thought the dog making herds of children sounds just slightly funny to watch so long as no one is hurtπ
As an Aussie, the Bluey is a great dog.
After 15 years, we lost our Bluey to cancer last year, and she was so calm and gentle with all our kids that we couldn’t have asked for a better dog.
Miss her even to this day.
I had a red heeler growing up from 8 to 16 he was a great dog, he loved the water a little too much, soo much that you couldn’t turn the hose on in front of him and if ya took him to the beach he’d literally swim in a circle for half an hourπ
@JimmyJohnson7077Β haha, yeah, reds and blueys are the best, aren’t they
I love that show lol.
After owning a Blue Heeler I would highly advise against it unless you are like an Iron Man triathlete. I took this dog for like 10km runs everyday and it didn’t even begin to touch the sides. It was well trained but its energy levels were just insane. I eventually gave him to a cattle farmer who said that he made a great cattle dog and could run all day, everyday. These dogs are not for suburbia.
I have a blue heeler and she is unlike any dog I have ever been around. She was potty trained in a week and by the time she was 6 months old I had already taught her 7 different tricks (she now knows 14 and we are working on dancing). I had no experience training dogs tricks prior to her and literally YouTubed everything. But she is also very sensitive to emotion so the only way to go with her personally was positive reinforcement training because she in no way shape or form wants to do anything that will make me upset and only wants to please, she is also very tapped into my emotions at all times and is the service dog I never knew I needed. Basically my review of the heeler is they are the best dog breed ever and I wonβt own anything but a cattle dog ever again.
I toilet trained my lab within a week when he was 9 weeks old, but it took him until 5 months old before he could hold it in his crate and for some reason could easily sleep through the night in my room without any accidents.
I’ve recently got a 14 week old lab puppy and she’s going to be difficult because she’s “too old” for easy toilet training. I’ll take her outside for 20-30 minutes and she does nothing and even if she does, I’ll leave her in her crate for a little bit and within 20 minutes she’s done a protest pee and poop. I’m not leaving her loose when I’m not around either because puppy pads are a waste of money and make training difficult. They also get chewed up whenever I have used them in the past.
She’ll have to learn the hard way and I’ll just have to “waterboard”/bathe her on a daily basis until she “gets it” like I did with my boy.
Yay for the Pittie! Iβve got an Amstaff/Pit mix and Iβve had him since he was a puppy. I took care to socialise and train him and heβs the best companion you could imagine. Gentle, funny, sweet, and he just KNOWS when itβs time to switch to guard mode. Heβs never aggressive, but heβll just beβ¦ extremely present. If need be, a rumble will rise from his throat. Then heβll give me a look that says βYou good?β He knows Iβm in charge.
Iβve seen him chase off foxes (the Chicken Murderers terrorising the neighbourhood) and cuddle with kittens and ducklings. Heβs loyal, child-friendly (adores kids), and the biggest snuggler around. When something seems off, he comes and gets me, then stays close by to make sure I can handle whateverβs up.
Best dog ever.
A rough collie was my babysitter when I was a toddler. He herded me around the yard. He made sure I wouldnβt go into a ditch that always had running water. He was a sweetheart.
Yes! I have a rough collie and he’s amazing. Mine is a mutt, so he’s mixed, but we live on 20 acres and he’s an amazing alert dog, letting us know about threats on the property and even chasing away the odd bear. He’s also super friendly to people except for if they’re being unsafe. For example, I once had the police banging on my door in the middle of the night (looking for someone and had the wrong house) and omg his bark turned so mean, I’d never heard him like that.
Before I was born my brother had a border collie when he was young and wild that my mom would trust to go in the woods with him because he fought off snakes and wild dogs.
For this reason we are considering herding dog breeds for my adhd son.
I had a Rough Collie growing up and she was like my nanny and my best friend.
It’s a shame Rough/Smooth Collies are almost never mentioned by dog content creators, they’re amazing dogs.
I’m actually looking for a Scotch Collie (landrace breed the Rough/Smooth Collie was supposedly bred from) soon π
@@priestesslucyProbably because as dog trainers, they donβt need to work with dogs who naturally are well behaved and as such, have no experience with them. Literally all 3 of the breeds this guy mentioned have notorious behavioral issues and so he has lots of experience with them
πππ
“They can herd your children”
I’m sold
Makes me think of the one smash skit where they leave their kid with the dog because they didn’t have a babysitter
πππ
right? Like why would I train that out of them ? π
He said hurt not herd.
@@JohnWick-stardawg no, I’m pretty sure he says herd
So glad to see the Pittie featured. We have a rescue pittie and she is the sweetest dog. In fact she’s literally glued to me in bed right now cuz she knows I’ve been up all night with stomach flu.
Theyβre the most understood dogs. They have big hearts thatβs why they were bred for fighting. When raised right theyre the most loving and protective dogs you could own
β@guero210 serious question. If everything you said about raising pits right is true, why do they turn on their owners at a dissproportionate rate compared to other dog breeds? Are you saying all of their owners raised them wrong?
@@nonames5139 cause pits were bred to be fighting dogs. They are naturally dominant. Those owners were too weak to be owning a pit in the first place, so naturally the dog ends up challenging itβs owner. This is not the case with proper training, and proper treatment of the dog. Usually those owners treat them like a spoiled baby, thus resulting in such behavior. You have to be stern and dominant with them aswell as setting clear boundaries and that will never happen. I have been around pit bulls and pit bull trainers/owners my whole life. Never had I seen or heard of such incident other than the media.
β@nonames5139 cause people are stupid. There is also a bias and people will say it was a pit bull, but it really isn’t. They suck at identifying breeds
@@nonames5139poor breeding/over breeding can also cause this, in combination with poor training and socialization. Iβve seen what poor breeding can do to a dog and itβs so sad to see a legit mentally unstable dog.
Just rescued a Pitbull from a shelter and heβs an angel! Loves people and other dogs and is very calm at the house
πππππππ
Hell nah
Every pit bull that Iβve ever met is so sweet
I rescued my pit from the shelter and she’s about to turn 10. Never bit or gets aggressive. She’s the best
I am so grateful and happy a professional dog trainer validating pitbull terriers as great family dog, they are highly intelligent but you must also acknowledge the American Staffordshire terrier. I had one for 14 yrs + she was fantastic with kids and everyone I introduced as friendly. Super gentle with other animals including kittens, ducks and squirrels. But was also an amazing protector and guard dog for your home as well. Super athletic, the most intelligent dog I have ever experienced, literally problem solving intelligence. You could speak full sentences to her and she would understand. People who say you cannot teach an old dog new tricks, well they never owned an Am Staff. She learned how to swim under water in the Colorado River after she was 9 years old and continued to handle new tasks and challenges daily. A hunting dog, catch frisbies and would swim for an hour straight
I had a stafforshire pit terrier too and I confirm this statement to be true. Mine attended nose work classes for few years and she was very good at finding scents (until a year before she died of heart murmur complications). She also was able to understand a wide vocabulary of words and was able to communicate her needs effectively all with paws.
