Thinking Bloodhounds are the ultimate tracking dog? Think again! Garrett and @k9servicesunlimited Justin Rigney dive into why Bloodhounds might not cut it for police K9 tracking. Here's Why: 1️⃣ Sniffing Everything – Sure, they’ve got the best noses in the game, but they’ll happily ditch a target trail for a skunk or deer. Focused? Not so much. 2️⃣ Weak Nerves – Loud noises, chaotic social scenes, or even a car backfiring? Bloodhounds can fold under the pressure. 3️⃣ They Stink! – Yeah, literally. Their oily skin makes them some of the dirtiest dogs out there. Love ‘em or hate ‘em, Bloodhounds just aren’t the best for tracking in real-world, high-pressure situations. #DogTraining #puppytraining #puppyfun #dogoftheday #puppytrainer #dogobediencetraining #balanceddogtraining #dogsaregreat #recall #puppytrain #k9trainer #dogobedience #dogbehavior #dogtrainingtips #bloodhounds #bloodhoundpuppies #policek9 #k9officer #sheriffk9 #policedog

Alright folks, here we have a 4-year-old putting our 125-lb Cane Corso, Thanos, through his paces—and let me tell you, she’s got it DOWN! Watch as she confidently commands: 1️⃣ “Thanos, Down!” – Boom, he drops like a rock. 2️⃣ “Thanos, Here!” – Comes right to her without skipping a beat. 3️⃣ “Thanos, Sit!” – Nailed it. Now, you’ve got to admit, this is impressive stuff—especially from a kid who’s barely taller than his head! If a 4-year-old can do it, you can too, with the right training.

Alright folks, here’s reason #279 why we love using prong collars. Behind me, we’ve got three massive horses—each weighing over 1,000 lbs—and guess what? You don’t control them with brute strength. You use the right tools, like a bit, to make it manageable. It’s the same with dogs. Pound for pound, dogs are stronger than humans. That’s why a 100-lb dog can give even a 180-lb man a hard time on a leash. The prong collar gives you a mechanical advantage, allowing for: 🔹 Better control. 🔹 Easier communication. 🔹 A safer, less stressful experience for both you and your dog. So, what do you think? Love ‘em or hate ‘em? Drop your thoughts in the comments below. If you want to learn how to take your dog from Zero to Hero...

Alright folks, here’s the deal: I took Thanos, our well-trained Cane Corso, to the mall while sneaking in some Christmas shopping for the wife. Spoiler alert—it’s not about the gifts, it’s about training and control. Here’s what went down: 1️⃣ Thanos stayed off-leash in a crowded mall, proving why proper training is key. 2️⃣ Safety and obedience took center stage—because not every dog is ready for this! 3️⃣ PSA: If your dog struggles on a leash, don’t even think about going off-leash. Let’s be real, bringing your dog into public spaces requires control and respect for others. If this offends you, dial 911 and let them know “Uncle Garrett” sent you (SARCASM).

Purebred or inbred? 🤣 This hilarious short dives into the Chihuahua debate! I’ve given Chihuahuas a hard time in the past, but I might just have to get one now—especially if they’re as cute as this little guy. Might have to get Thanos a new tiny best friend! #chihuahua #canecorso #dogtrainerreacts #DogTraining #puppytraining #puppyfun #dogoftheday #puppytrainer #dogobediencetraining #balanceddogtraining #dogsaregreat #recall #puppytrain #k9trainer #dogobedience #dogbehavior #dogtrainingtips

Here’s the deal: your dog MUST master the down stay. Why? Because life happens, and sometimes you gotta go… literally. 🚻 Watch as Thanos, our Cane Corso, holds a perfect downstay outside a busy mall bathroom. There is no need to bring him inside and have him lick whatever is on the floor. Mastering the downstay is key to moving in and around the public without worry.

Are you thinking about getting a protection dog? @k9servicesunlimited Justin Rigney and Garrett break down the top 3 things you MUST consider before making this huge investment. 1️⃣ The Cost – If you don’t have $100k to play with, don’t even start the conversation. Protection dogs require a serious financial commitment. 2️⃣ Time and Training – This isn’t a “buy it and forget it” deal. Be ready to invest time in daily maintenance training and real-world scenarios. Planes, trains, helicopters, cars—your dog needs to be prepared for it all. 3️⃣ Who You’re Buying From – The dog training industry is full of shady characters. Work with someone who’s got a proven track record, a long list of satisfied clients, and has trained dogs that have actually deployed in real-world situations. If your trainer can’t tell you they’ve prepared a dog for real-world action, it’s fantasy—not experience. #protectiondog #k9trainer #k9officer #DogTraining #dogoftheday #dogobediencetraining #balanceddogtraining #dogsaregreat #recall #puppytrain #k9trainer #dogobedience #dogbehavior #dogtrainingtips

So, I’m leaving the gun store, just picked up a new toy, and bam—run into one of our fans who’s already bought a few of our courses.

@treynkennedy nailed it, y’all. This is exactly why most dogs don’t respect their owners anymore—because society has gone soft! Dog owners have turned into pushovers. This video is still funny though! #comedy #dogtrainerreacts #thatmoment #dogtrainer #puppytrainer #DogTraining #puppytrain #k9trainer #dogrehabilitation #dogobedience #dogtrainingadvice #dogbehavior #dogtrainingtips #dogvideo

The first thing every dog owner needs to master with your dog: are doorways and thresholds! 🚪 Whether it's your car door, front door, or even a mall entrance, your dog needs to know how to wait and respect the space. An implied Sit Stay or Down Stay is a game-changer—it keeps your dog safe and under control. No darting into traffic. No lunging out the door. Just calm, collected behavior—and it all starts with mastering thresholds. If you want to learn how to train your dog from Zero to Hero...

Who needs a protection dog when you’ve got a killer turkey on your side? 🦃 Watch as this fearless bird turns the tables and chases the dog, proving turkeys aren’t just for Thanksgiving dinner! Usually, it’s the owner chasing the dog that’s chasing the bird… but not today. This time, it’s the bird doing all the work! #dogtrainerreacts #turkey #fail #thatmoment #dogtrainer #puppytrainer #DogTraining #puppytrain #k9trainer #dogrehabilitation #dogobedience #dogtrainingadvice #dogbehavior #dogtrainingtips #dogvideo

Alright folks, here’s something cool about Rottweilers—even if you’ve never met one, chances are you’d recognize them instantly. Why? They’re iconic! From their unique look to their roles in pop culture, these dogs have made a lasting impression. Here are some unforgettable Rottweiler moments: 🎥 Lethal Weapon 3 – Mel Gibson face-to-face with a badass Rottie. 🎥 The Dark Knight – Heath Ledger’s Joker protected by three imposing Rottweilers. 🎥 Ferris Bueller’s Day Off – The principal gets OWNED by the family Rottweiler. 🎮 Grand Theft Auto V – Meet Chop, the street-smart Rottweiler handling business.

Okay, this dog leaving a 50-yard pee trail is giving me flashbacks to my 20s… wandering out of the bar, thinking I was showing off some kind of ‘trick.’ 😂 Gross then, gross now.

Let’s stir the pot in the comments—what’s the biggest mistake in the police K9 world? @k9servicesunlimited Justin Rigney joins me to break down one of the most overlooked mistakes in the police K9 world: relying on floppy dogs like Bloodhounds and Labradors for high-stakes scenarios. Sure, they’re great at tracking, but when it’s time to face a bad guy, these dogs become more of a liability than an asset. A K9 trained to bite shifts the bad guy’s focus, giving officers that critical second to neutralize a threat. #k9protection #bloodhound #policedogs #dogtrainer #puppytrainer #DogTraining #puppytrain #k9trainer #dogrehabilitation #dogobedience #dogtrainingadvice #dogbehavior #dogtrainingtips #dogvideo

I’ve been telling y’all for years—stop using flexi-leashes! They’re dangerous, you have zero control over your dog, and they’ll eventually get you or someone else hurt. If a dented truck and a forehead smack aren’t convincing enough, I don’t know what will be. If you want to learn how to train your dog from Zero to Hero...
