- Terry Adams Jr., a former US Army working dog handler, rates eight military dogs in movies and television shows for realism.
Adams breaks down various breeds of military working dogs, particularly the Belgian Malinois, in the search-and-apprehension scenes in "SEAL Team" S1E7 and E14, the explosive-detection dog in "Megan Leavey," and the guard dogs in "John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum," with Keanu Reeves and Halle Berry. He looks at working dogs outside of the military, such as the narcotics-detection dog in "Breaking Bad" S4E12, starring Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul; and the German shepherd in "I Am Legend," who protects her owner - played by Will Smith - at all costs. He also explains the safety protocols and realities of dog handling during warfare, such as detecting weapons and explosives in "Max," and "NCIS" S10E18, and the realities of post-traumatic stress disorder among retired military working dogs in "Dog," starring Channing Tatum.
Adams has six years of experience as a military working dog handler for the US Army, as well as 10 years of experience handling and training civilian dogs. He had three military combat deployments, all in Afghanistan. He is the founder and head trainer of Tactical K9, a facility for training civilian and military dogs.

Military Dog Handler Rates 8 Military Dogs In Movies And TV | How Real Is It? | Insider
The movies are ranked from 0-10, but all the dogs get a 15/10 from me
As they should
If it was a 3/10 he always said “due to the handling”, but his 10/10s he directed at the doggos
Why so low???
I haven't seen the movie but I screamed for the dog injured at the explosion.
i made it 1k lol
Agreed
Dogs wearing goggles is just about the cutest thing you'll ever see.
doggles
Same with ear protection
Not a military dog but my hound has eye and ear pro, his goggles are mostly just for a little extra when he’s in the woods and as a bonus just to look cool but his ear pro is simply for going to the gun range or whenever he’s around gunfire, but I’m hoping to start tracking and scent work with him soon so having that bit of protection for rough tracks will be good, he also wears shoes and thick leather collars for protection (and they look nice) but having a thick collar like that has actually protected him from a few bites from other animals
Hadji getting mauled to death but the dog is wearing goggles: "AWWWWWWWW 🥹"
@@jekyllthebeast783
Why is your dog getting bit by other animals?? And what is in the woods that makes GOGGLES necessary??
Fun fact: that’s my dad! He sent this to me and I’m so proud him 🤭
IF true... IF... I wouldn't brag about being a family member of a now known military servant... that can put a target on you and you could compromise your military family member as well...
Since you can't even write properly, I think you are either a troll or just weird for lying..😅
That’s awesome! I would be so happy to have a family member showcased in one of these. Don’t mind the terminally online dude above me btw.
Awesome!
Really?
Or are you just saying that to get a lot of likes.
@@gingerbaker_toad696Criticizing a random person online for their writing skills while exhibiting inferior writing skills is the most internet thing one can do other than making threats behind a screen.
Terry Adams Jr. is a public figure now. His business is promoted and the website is linked in the description of this video. On TK9's website Adam's military service is touted as one of his credentials for being a trainer. The business address is public as well. It's no secret. If someone was intent on finding his family this person's comment would be the smallest breadcrumb amongst all the crumbs.
Chill out a bit. When you inevitably reply to me make it just as entertaining as your first reply and use correct punctuation this time.
0:13 Tiny's thoughts: "Be good dog. Be good dog. Be good dog. OK he said my name, bye" 😁
😂😂😂
lol Tiny's smile when she was introduced...perfect.
It’s so sad how he describes his K9s though - it really is just work and they really don’t have much of a real bond. I can’t imagine having to part with a dog after having it for years, yet he just casually talks about how his last dog retired with some random family.
I really hate how dogs are used for military and police. They don’t deserve it. They truly innocent beings that aren’t able to consent to giving up their lives or undergo great bodily harm that disables them for life and/or causes chronic pain for the rest of their life. 😢
@@anti-ethniccleansing465jesus christ
@@anti-ethniccleansing465 This is why they use WORKING dog breeds. Service dogs, seeing eye dogs, etc...spend their puppy years with families where they bond with the people in household, then they move to a trading facility, where they bond with their trainers, then they get placed with their person, where they bond with the person they help. The way dogs bond is different than the way humans bond. Stop assigning human behavior and emotions to non-human animals.
Megan Leavey is a very under rated film. A side note the Team dog Cerberus in Seal Team is a real Police dog out of Indiana. His handler is the
actor Justin Melnick. Her real name is Dita The Hair Missile.
Her Name is awesome XD I call my Cat Ginger the furnado lol
‘Hair Missile’ is amazing XD
In UK you hear "Furry Missile", "Furry Exocet", "Landshark" to.desctibe poice dogs...
Handlers called "Dumb end of Lead" or "Landshark Chauffeur"
A little known fact, during filming movies with guns most of the time they're silent on set and the bang bang is added in post
Except on the "Rust" movie set. Too soon?🤔
@@ivanlowjones hence 'most of the time' ;-)
@@ivanlowjonestoo soon my guy😂😂😂
As a former MWD handler, I can say that was a great and accurate breakdown.
If you can find it, I always recommend the movie 'chip the war dog'. It's an old movie, but a classic
Thanks for watching!
THIS is an awesome ratings angle... With humans, you could "well, Bob should have pulled right, and the green screen...". But with dogs, there's a huge "connected disconnection" between "movie", "stunt", and "real". The dog is moving on its own based on training and commands, it doesn't know it's in a movie. It's ON IT. No stunt guy pulling a punch. ❤❤❤
There are some dogs that certainly know when they are putting on a performance.
They might not understand that they are being filmed, but are very much aware that everyone around is watching them and expecting them to execute what they have trained as well as possible. And the best acting dogs are excited to show what they can do.
@@Yora21 - agreed! In my "oh wow" excitement I was thinking about how it would be to put a primary military dog in a situation like this. I should have qualified it. 🤪
This guy really has a very different view on dogs than the military. He was going to say the military views dogs as expandable but picked much more tactful phrasing instead.
He cares about the dogs and views the dogs he worked with as fellow brothers in arms, you can see him get very emotional from the clip where the handler and dog get hit by an IED.
Pet dog training here:
It would make no sense to me that the military would view dogs as expendable. It costs tens of thousands of dollars to train a military dog. Those dogs are absolutely precious assets. However, when it comes to how the dog is used, there will be situations where the dog is used to keep people safe and that inherently puts the dog at risk for a number of reasons. They will do what they can to limit those risks, but the top priority will be to preserve human life as it should be.
@@snubblebubble4937 not as it should be. How freaking disrespectful is that??
@@inwe1205 Are you saying that the military's top priority shouldn't be to bring the troops home safely? If it was my son, husband, brother, father... who was lost in combat and I learned that they could have deployed a K9 and saved his life, being upset about the situation would be an understatement.
All I'm saying is the reason the military uses K9s is because it saves human lives, and sometimes unfortunately that means losing the K9. Of course the officers will try to do everything they can not to let that happen. The dogs aren't expendable, but they do go into some really dangerous situations which is why they are there in the first place.
@@inwe1205not disrespectful at all. It's sad to lose a dog. But losing a human being hurts more. And the dog doesn't have a family left behind.
@@snubblebubble4937 that was a long way to say that the dogs are expendendable unlike a human life they'll send dogs in where its to dangerous KNOWING it would be high risk I'm not saying this is a bad thing but lets not act like that's not what they're there for 😂
Police and military doggos are amazing. Our EOD guys, while demining the north of Chile, used doggos to help them clear it. Even the "attack" doggos are super friendly, if you pet them they just lick your face with the tail waggling all around. All it took was 1 word from the handler to make the cuddly, adorable piece of fur into a laser-guided missile fur.
most service dogs have a switch that flips when they get their work vest/gear on. i got a aunt that has a dog who is also trained as an official service dog. without her vest she is like any big (goofy) dog that still thinks she is a lapdog but the moment you put her service vest on she goes into work mode and acts like you would expect for a service dog to act.
Many years ago i met a British Army dog handler who said that his dog, when off duty was a family pet, his kids would play with him and go for walks and he`d be a goofy doggo, but once that chest harness went on then the dog knew it was time to go to work and then he was all business
This was so interesting, I absolutely love dogs and really enjoyed Terry's take on these movie clips. Would love a part 2
Thanks for watching!
I find the comment about switching from the german shepherd to the belgian malinois in part due to the size interesting. The shepherd used to be quite a bit smaller, similar to the malinois. It was in part the demand for military and guard dogs being larger that led to the shepherd being bred larger.
The Malinois used to be a lot smaller than what's commonly found now. The Malinois is smaller, more athletic, has more stamina, and is more intelligent. For what the U.S. military does these days (and for the past 22 years) the Malinois is the better choice. Having a 70lb dog attached to you is easier than having a 90lb dog attached.
GSDs are still badass. I think they look more intimidating than Malinois.
Incorrect.
German Shepherds were over 100 pounds before a written blueprint (aka breed standard) was even created as they were living fences for sheep. The breed has since been bred smaller.
What you have to realize is today's military & law enforcement carry more equipment than before - so to carry all the equipment plus a dog - wouldn't a 45-pound dog be easier than an 85-pound dog?
@user-dh4um4qi7h except for there being no evidence (that I can find) of German shepherds being that large when the breed was codified from 1 specific family of dogs in the 1890s. Additionally, working herd dogs (what they were originally bred from) are not meant to be a "fence" to the sheep, but to use the sheep's instinctive reactions to preditors to move the sheep around. No herding breed is very large, since the larger the dog the harder it has to work just to move, reducing its endurance. Every breed still commonly used for herding is smaller, like the border collie. The German sheep herding communities dwindled in numbers not long after the breed was created, which was also when various kennel clubs were codifying dog breeds. It was since then, especially during various wars (ww1 and ww2 in particular), that the breed increased in size. There has been an increase in the weight the average soldier carries, though dogs frequently are able to move themselves most of the time.
There are dogs used to protect animals, called livestock guardian dogs as a general term. Those are intended to ward off preditors, but are not generally used to herd the animals as that wasn't the point of them being there. Those breeds are often quite a bit larger
@@patrickdix772 The German Shepherd Dog wasn't exhibited in conformation show until 1882 in Hanover, Germany....herding dogs have existed since ancient times....
@@titanium7992you are correct on the Mal being preferable due to size and agility. However, the GSD is still ranked higher on intelligence.
This video gets a 10/10 for Terry and Tiny!
Thanks for watching!
Finally we get an expert in his field ok with giving credit where it’s due and not coming off as THE definitive professional whose seen it all\ done it all and every thing is bad except there own experience PLEASE have him back a genuine breath of un pompous air
The SEAL Team gets a 10/10. I never thought I'd ever experience that 😅
SEAL Team as a show has a pretty fantastic and strict commitment to realism. Their original dog was a police dog handled by a real military veteran ex cop. A lot of the lesser team members are real ex-military, even real ex-special forces (but no SEALs as far as I know). Their main jobs are really being realism consultants, not actors.
Mark Semos who played TJ was a Seal
@@leithcrowther6086 Yeah, the show has a great combat and realism standpoint when it comes to military action scenes. The show fails at the homeland drama stuff, which is necessary for the full picture but too hollywood cliche imo.
Spoiler alert
Which one was tj is he the guy who replaces clay and technically ray as bravo 2
Spoiler alert
Still hate that clay died only just finished the show and Spenser was my fav character in seal team
The first time I saw the John wick dog scene I was blown away
The choreography is amazing, definitely my favorite scene of the movie
@@alilweeb7684 Halle Berry has an interview where she talks about the months of training she went through to be
able to pull off these scenes.
...so were the bad guys ^^
The movie "Dog" had some very unrealistic parts, but the way she trashed the vehicle is 100 percent accurate.
This guy is awesome! He needs to come back for a part 2.
Thanks for watching!
Great advice and review. I adopted a "Labrador retriever" as a puppy from the SPCA. Got it home and it's ears stood up and for a year I couldn't understand why he wasn't like a German shepherd. Turns out through DNA he's a Belgian malonois ! Now that I know he is getting much better with extra exercise and understanding. ❤
I swear my Labrador retriever has Belgian malonois in him.
In I am legend, he's actually not trying to get the dog to attack, rather the opposite. The dog only responds to the danger.
And also those dog, are zombie dog.
This guy is so chill! I hope he comes back for more.
Like many military guys, he's chill until he's not.
@@IamnotJohnFord , Amen!
@@IamnotJohnForddefinitely don’t want to see his bad side
Came to learn, stayed for the doggy ear protection ❤❤❤
On Seal Team, the dog and his handler are partners in real life in the police department. SO... Seal Team is 100% accurate.
That was a fair bit of commentary, and all very no-nonsense
I bet you have a good rapport with dogs or clients / dog owners as you come across very calm. Like nothing would send you into a panic, amazing quiet strength coming off you, in a good way (sorry, no native speaker)
I don't know if that I am Legend clip deserves a 3/10. That dog did everything that he said a regular German Shephard would do and thats what it was.
I agree, its not the best scene to showcase for the movie, he didn't really send the dog to fight other dogs, it was in protection mode at that point
@stefaniealex6775 yeah that's what I was thinking. They shoulda showed clips where Will's character had him go in to rooms/buildings to sniff around and let him know it was safe.
I didn't know dogs can have PTSD, and they use the same drugs as to human.
If it can be stressed, it can get PTSD.
It depends. Humans are animals. Dogs are animals. Some animals get the same problems and need the same solutions as human animals. I give my dog 50 mg of Benadryl every night for hay fever. I use to crush potassium phosphate pills I got from CVS for my cat due to a kidney issue. Did that for over 10 years.
Just make sure you check before giving any pet human medicine.
A tons of medications that people take, animals take too, just different dosing. Animals get mental illnesses like depression and anxiety too, so they use prozac most often for it. Dogs, cats, parrots, and a lot of other pets all get it for those issues.
My dog is a rescue with dog fighting trauma, and we have her on prozac. Sometimes I have to wake her up from night terrors.
My rescue Australian cattle dog had ptsd. We had to get rid of anything flyswatter like and couldn’t toss laundry anywhere around him. He didn’t need meds but lifestyle changes by us and also he needed to be in constant contact with me or the kids if he was triggered. When he got old he couldn’t be away from me for even a few minutes and the kids babysat him if I went to the store. Prozac made his anxiety worse so dogs also have undesirable side effects from meds. His cheaper pain medication were human meds but the fancy expensive stuff was dog only. He made it to over 21 and was the best dog ever with a decent amount of resilience to cope with his trauma but definitely never got over the flyswatter thing until the day he died(when he was old I had to constantly put towels under him so he was triggered by that at times).
My aunt’s job after her military service was to work with army dog handler’s division to help find homes for the dogs who couldn’t make it through training. Some dogs just don’t have the right personality for it. Some are just big old goofballs. So her job was to arrange to get them into loving foster homes so they could be adopted out instead of put into shelters. Where she was REALLY cared about every single puppy that came into training whether they went the distance or not.
Those were the lucky ones, who failed out of training.
@@anti-ethniccleansing465 My aunt said that the dogs in training were treated very VERY well if it makes you feel better. She is a MASSIVE animal lover. If the dogs were being treated badly at the base she was at she would have immediately quit and made a huge stink about it to the government. She is pretty high ranking in her military branch. She more than likely could get a meeting at minimum to issue a big complaint. Again I am not saying at all they are treated perfectly at every base but at the base she was employed at, they were treated with positive reinforcement only and love.
@@allshookup1640
I don’t think my point was received. My point is that dogs are not able to give consent to their risk to great bodily harm or death on the job, and it is really inexcusable that humans exploit their innocence to use them for our needs.
I would give my life to protect my dog..best mate ever.
What I love about “vicious” dogs in movies is that 99% of the time the dog actor is just living their best life and having a great time! They have to CGI out their tails or lightly tie them down because the sweet pups are wagging them like crazy because they are having fun. A lot of the time to make them lunge or jump, their handler is standing off camera with a treat or a toy to make them excited. They jump on someone who subtly hands them a treat and gives them kisses between takes. You can tell most of the time if you understand dog body language that dog actors are usually very chill during scenes or just excited. VERY rarely will the dog actually look aggressive or scary body language wise and when they do it is usually due to effects added or makeup like blood matting the fur.
Dog actors are just happy to be there and happy to Have a new friend to play with most of the time
Very interesting. And thank you for your service, both military and civilian. And a big thanks and a toy to your super pup!❤❤
A big thank you for your service to the dogs. And to those who are serving.
God bless the EOD guys
what a lovely video. Those reviews from specialists are my favorite content... and including dogs, couldn't be better. Hope to see a part 2 with Terry and Tiny
I would think the military wouldn't send a dog into harm's way without a pretty good tactical reason. As the guy mentioned, it would probably get shot pretty quickly. No doubt a lot of hours go into training those dogs! I bet they are used for tracking and detection far more than "restraint."
When I trained service puppies the cutest thing I learned is that the dogs have to want to work. Mine was a bit lazy so he got retired to his handlers house lol. He just wanted to play and get pets 😅😅
Thank you for your service. This was so informative and Terry is very impressive with his knowledge behind his details given. Hi Tiny!!! I enjoyed the rating.
I wish they had had him comment on the fact that Halle Berry trained and handled the dogs for that scene!
Or the the dog Cerberus was a real life MWD
I got busted at Dulles by a beagle. No bark just sat next to me. Thinking i may have a way out of this, i turned to give him scritches and tell him hes a good boi.
"DON'T TOUCH THE DOG, SIR."
That was the 90s, but everything this guy is saying holds true in my experience.
Lol! What did they find on you, and what was the punishment?
@@anti-ethniccleansing465 They didn't find the little bit of hash I had stashed in my underwear, after several VIGOROUS frisks. (I was so nervous I kept asking to go to the bathroom, so glad I didn't.) What *_was_* a surprise was the huge lump (of the same) that I thought I had lost on vacation, but was in the deep corner of my jeans pocket in the suitcase they tossed _hard_.
I was in the frisking/questions room for so long they started basically giving me reasons why the dog would have alerted on me. "Have you been around people who were using drugs recently?"
(lightbulb flickers)
YES! YES!! I WAS AT A RAVE LAST NIGHT! All my friends are felonious party animals!
They let me go, and I found the massive hash ball in my jeans a week later. It was better than a surprise $100 in the laundry.
A beagle took 10 years off my life.
@@anti-ethniccleansing465 I had been to Holland, and got some killer incense. I was afraid someone would covet my incense and so I hid a small amount in my underwear. For safekeeping.
When the beagle sent me to secondary (inspection, I grew up in a border town) I was *_thoroughly_* frisked multiple times. I was so scared they'd find my awesome air flavor, I asked repeatedly to go to the bathroom. Thank God I they didn't let me.
So, this beagle LOVES INCENSE. And he told them where to find some. After my suitcase and basically salad was tossed, the uniforms started essentially giving me reasons why I'd have gotten the doggos attention.
Have you been around anyone who DJs? Anyone who is a fan of reggae?
Yessir!! At a rave last night! Yup! Party animals, the lot of them.
So they let me go.
A week later I found a golf ball sized hunk of incense in my deep corner jeans pocket. I thought I'd lost it on vacation. It was in that suitcase. It was 10x what I had in my shorts. It was like finding a $100 bill in the laundry.
Still scared of beagles.
@@anti-ethniccleansing465 my re-reply got scrubbed too. Might have to take this to discord.

I don’t use that app, but it’s cool. I know what you mean… YT drives me up the wall with it’s censorship. Was it marijuana, or worse?
As a dog lover, I really enjoyed this tremendously!
I like this video, more of Terry and Tiny please :)
Wow, such a great video! The level of detail the speaker provides is amazing! Also, it's so great that you provide text and video explanations of terms and situations mentioned!
This video gets a 10/10 from me! Very informative!
Sad fact military and police dogs get PTSD like humans as well 😔
This is incredible. I think a lot more animals are more intelligent than we give them credit for.
A lack of oral communication does not automatically mean "dumb".
You can see in my dogs eyes the level of intelligence he possesses. He is insanely smart…Belgian Malenois typically are a smart breed. My dog Kilo is.
YES! I was hoping yall would make a video like this

Love the Video! Love listening to Mr. Adams, sharing his knowledge and experiences!
Thank you for your service.
Great video,informative. Enjoyed your calm commentary and the dogs, magnificent.
Really appreciated and enjoyed Terry’s assessment. Thanks for your service.
Very good video, thanks Terry! Now do another with the worst examples. Or just another, you did a great job.
Such a thoroughly informative clip. Nice work Terry.
Very informative.
Thank you.
Thank you sir and all the doggos for their service!!!
This was awesome to see! Thank you for this! All dogs in these movies were good doggies! 😊
Great video, would love a part two and include Bear from Person of interest.
Really good video. Thank you for your service 😊
Thank you for your service and sharing this information 👍
tiny is so precious 🥺🥺
This is the type of youtube content im here for 💪🐕
Pupper power
experts be like , yeah that’s a real dog 10/10
10/10 good boys all of them.
crazy to find terry on youtube, being a local to me. im sending my lab to him for a 3 week obidience training and boarding service and this makes me even more confident of his capabilities. seems like a great guy cant wait to meet him and see how he can make my dog great.
Great information and deals how to train the safe way great job
Cute fun fact: almost all dogs you see on the screen are partially cgi. They just can't stop wagging their tails, because they are playing, following what their handler says and just know they are good boys/girls, which doesn't really fit in a scene where the dogs front is barking and flashing teeth.
So adorable.
It would have been absolutely amazing to also have Mike Ritland on this episode along with this expert. I have learned so much from Ritland's videos
4:20 oh my heart just melted! Little ear protectors
You can really tell his emotion change, when talk about the movie have same situation with his passed dog ❤
Cool thing about SEAL Team is that the dog handler, Brock, and his dog, Cerberus, are a real Police K9 handler duo.
Dita, aka Cerby, had to leave the show because dogs can't tell the difference between acting and real life and she was starting to show signs of trauma
The movie dog was a tearjerker. I actually recommend you watch that it will give a little bit of backstory on the dog and the character of the handler.
Realistic or not, john wick dog scene was badass though
This was really interesting to watch
Great video, great presentation, thanks for the entertainment
Cool to see ‘I Am Legend’ in this it’s not really a Military movie but it’s still a heart-warming scene.
As plenty of others have already noted, the dog and hander from SEAL Team are real partners. They're both former K9 cops that worked together. In one of the behind-the-scenes things, they said the biggest "fictional" part is that he gives the dog commands in another language (I can't remember if it was German or not), so when you see him give commands in English (such as the "Cerberus, left!" command in this clip), that was just for the camera/audience.
I'd give this video a 10/10.
My partner is a retired search rescue recovery k9 handler. The stuff the dogs could do was just amazing. I used to love 'bodying' for them to train. The dogs were trained bark to alert. We had Australian Kelpies.
Dogs are just so freaking amazing creatures. I swear my partner and our girl had their own language on searches.
This was great, clear reasoning behind the scores. Those working dogs are brilliant, better trained than the actors!(and in a lot of cases better looking)😂❤️❤️
Finally "Megan Leavey" movie is getting more attention on CZcams. I want the reactors with dogs to watch it. 👀😁
Cool and chill guest. 👌
Hi Terry! HI TINY!
This was a very interesting video, well done. You sir and your dog have my respect for serving your country even though i'm not American🫡.
The Belgian Malenois is a great working dog. I got to see German Shepards in action over there. But, the Malenois is on a different level athletically. In addition, it is one of the most intuitive dogs you can encounter. Mine learned his responsibilities as a service dog at a very young age. He has been with me since my separation from service.
This guy knows his stuff. He’s awesome.
my heart breaks when im thinking of a retired army dog with depression and Ptsd ❤ dogs that usually are so happy🥺
A friend of mine from the Army helped train the dog from the movie with Channing Tatum. Eric from Coastline K9. He was a handler in Ranger Battalion
I know is a break down video, but we need more Tiny
This is one I've been waiting on. Let's see
Yep. I could watch the John Wick dogs all day. One of my favorite videos was when they were training with Halle Berry in preproduction for hours each day & the trainers said the dogs looked at her as a trainer.
so cool to see how happy the working dogs are
I have an ex idf explosive sniffing malinois, having dogs all my life, this dog is the best dog I've ever had. They are telepathic and just a truly amazing animal.
i don't know if this would change his rating, but in the john wick films I believe the dogs have body armor to prevent what he mentioned
This guy actuality trained my dog! He is truly amazing!
in the "Dog" clip, I'd add that you wouldn't approach an unknown / possibly traumatised / with possible agression issues dog upfront if you're not in front of a military trained dog. You CAN definitely do it slowly (I'd recommend it, but I'm a civilian behaviourist, not a military trained one, so the military training is definitely a factor for those dogs, i. e. they are probably more used to the military way of approaching them with confidence). The most important thing in dogs with phobia (I'm talking about civilian dogs here ^^ ), is that you don't want to trigger a fear (attack) response, so you'll want to approach them "from the side" and slowly (while watching also slightly to the side, yawning can also be a big help, the dog will understand you're not a threat to him most of the time). Speaking in a soothing tone is right, but crouching so close to them is a big no no (crouching is good, but doing it further from them is better). You don't want your face smack dab in front of that muzzle, even when the bite is restricted, them dogs can pack a punch ^^ I've worked a few times with military trainers here in France, and the work they do is absolutely fabulous, but people really have to remember that training such dogs is very far from what we do with "pets" (since our goals are so far apart)
You can just feel how much this guy loves dogs--very cool.
Well there is a great difference between a 31 kilo (MP) , an 11 Bravo (Infantry) or a18 series (Special Forces) handler ….. so yeah I’m tracking but there is no catch all for handlers.
Are those weight ratings? Wow, other than the MP, they all seem... low. I know how strong dogs are, but I can't imagine an infantry dog being the size of the goofball lying at my feet...
Shows you what good training can do!
The expert I didn't know I needed.
oh!!! I hope the Seal Team the show would make an appearance cause cerberus is my favorite. First Clip! yay
Really wanted to see person on interest clip on this maybe on a part 2
Since you got NCIS in there, I'd now like to see what he would think of that NCIS episode where apparently they swapped out a drug-sniffer dog (owned by the Navy) with an attack dog and used that dog to frame a dog attack on a fellow drug-sniffer dog
Lackland AFB in San Antonio Texas. This is where MWD’s are made for every branch of the military.
I really love my Belgian, and I am even more proud to have him, after hearing accounts like this!
Should have looked at Bear from Person of Interest.
I always thought the introduction scene with the dog took some poetic licence, are Malamutes really only trained in Dutch?
