Awe he looks just like my baby. And they act the same too. I look forward to the let go command because my girl has mastered every other basic command. But she won’t let go of the Frisbee ever. I take it out and once she has it she’ll keep it in her mouth for hours. She let’s go of other toys with ease tho.
Special Dog. Special Trainer. ❤️
I’m in love with George!!! Can’t wait to watch the rest of the series!!
You can just see the intelligence pouring out of George’s eyes…I am really looking forward to this series! He’s a gorgeous dog, and I’m excited to see how he progresses through positive reinforcement. I’ve always wondered how many focused training sessions a day you are doing with these project dogs besides just the “living like a good citizen in our life” training around the house while you’re focused on other stuff.
I can’t wait to see how George progresses in this series! Even in just the first 24 hours, I can see how smart of a dog he is. I hope this series will show others that just because pit bull’s get a bad reputation doesn’t mean all are mean and aggressive. They are really a sweet, lovely, playful, smart, and fun breed! And George is no exception! Thank you for creating your videos! You really show how easily a dog can be trained with positive reinforcement! Keep up the good work!
So excited to see how George progresses. What amazing progress so far! He’s so intelligent. I love your passion for this!!
Oh wow, what a gorgeous, handsome boy George is! He seemed to instantly have a connection with you. You can tell he’s really a special dog. My staffy had a lot of similar problem behaviours as George, and I haven’t managed to completely resolve them all yet so I’m watching with interest. Thanks for your videos! 🐾🥰
Where’s his harness from?
What an awesome dog. I’ve been “trained” to believe that pitties are dangerous. That fear was reinforced when my dog and I were almost attacked. The dog seemed more interested in my dog than me but I was terrified. Between George and watching another channel called The Dodo, my fear may be unfounded, at least in most cases. Great job Zak – I am so pumped for this series with George.
He’s super cute.
This really brought tears to our eyes… The way every dog transformed amazingly with you respect, training and love is so heartwarming. We look forward to this every Sunday!!!!
So nice also seeing Indy. Good old girl super polite and sweet.
Already crying in the intro…
I’m already in love with George. What a handsome, smart, wonderful boy he is. I’d love to see his DNA – I’ve got a big girl that George reminds me of very much. I fostered her and 2 of her brothers starting at 4 weeks old when they lost their mama, and ended up not being able to let her go. She’s over 50 % Staffy – the rest is lab, GSD and Sharpei 🙂
I’m not saying George is a genius pup but I’m not NOT saying that either.
Beautiful video. I can’t wait to see more of George’s journey.
Cue the InstaTrainers about the word “no.” 🤨
Oh George, what a sweet (crazy) boy! But so switched on, this series is going to be awesome.
I am amazed he is down bow & roll over with out reaching may be he had it in his blood
Hey Zak i just got a foster Dog that is horrible on the leash, what leash do you use?
George is such an amazing dog! With the challenges to come, it’ll be very relatable to watch and learn, not just from you, but from George as well. Thanks for what you do!
Swear to dog, you’re training my late Rufus. He was SUCH a challenge, but worth every bit of it. If we could’ve come up with an effective way to better manage his pain aggression……but it is what it is. I will warn you with the red ball……don’t be surprised if George becomes obsessed. lol
Amazing! I’m glad you are making this series with a pitbull type dog. I’m going to be paying close attention to this series because I been wanting to adopt a pitbull type dog and hopefully give one a home that I know they deserve! Thanks Zak!
That’s one awesome dog
You are a true genius Zak. It’s amazing to see the development of every dog, and to watch the relationship blossom.
I love this !!!!!!!!! I cant wait to see more
I’d like to support your channel more do you have a Patreon or you should set up a subscription service or we could donate three dollars a month or whatever
We just got our American Bully puppy – Winnifred ! Hoping to learn some good techniques to help with our training !
Everything that makes a pit bull so amazing 😊😊
Great episode….George is a super smart dog! Cant wait to see more. Have an awesome week guys.
I’ve had my pity puppy Appa now for 3-1/2 months and he’s 5 months old 48lbs and STRING! I commented on Moira’s first video. Since then he’s learned fetch, how to catch, he waits and so much more that has just become engraved in his behavior. The info in ur videos have really helped me bond and train Appa better than any dog we’ve had before. He has a long way to go but he learns crazy quick from all the training!
George!!! What a sweet boy!!! I am so interested to see how he does. All those brains ❤️
What a lovey George is !!!!!!! Can you recommend a pad, mat, bed, for the crate for my 7 month old puppy who has destroyed several already ?
question… about how many bags of treats do you use to train a dog???
Zak, could you have your people create a couple more playlists of videos you’ve done? The following would be very much appreciated:
Anything dealing with kids and dogs
Anything dealing with specific energy levels (mainly high energy)
Thank you. 💟 I want to watch everything you’ve done on the above topics, but searching has been giving me tons of videos from other creators too, and that doesn’t work for me.
I like that you use consequences as well, but in a kind way and not a “punishing” way!
Already can’t wait for the next episode. It’s really bad like a heroin addition lol.
He is so beautiful. I’m so glad you are doing a pit. Our baby pit is much like George and so loveable as well
I’m so glad you took on his sweetie, I have to babies and didn’t hesitate to get one of these kinds of dogs, they are just beautiful. Just curious, I live in Australia and is that red collar needed because of his breed? Or is it just the collar you chose?
Love watching your series, I really am looking forward to watching your training with George because he seems to have a lot of normal issues you would have with an untrained fur buddy. Watching you really does help us to deal with things that we may have allowed our own buddy’s to get away with.
funny how some dogs take his microphone off! like George!
Oh, he’s soooo gorgeous!! We fostered our pit bull from birth and then adopted her (aka “foster failed” lol). I was slightly nervous because of the bad reputation this breed gets but ever since knowing her I just adore Pit Bulls! Amazing, strong, goofy and VERY loving dogs, and just oh so cute!!
Brilliant episode. I can’t wait to watch the rest. Love the long episode. I could watch George all day. I’m so excited for next episode
Pitts are truly such a special breed. I just lost my 8 yr old Pitt, Kobe, after he was diagnosed with Lymphoma. I am still dealing with such a huge heartbreak. Seeing George just warmed my heart for they are such good pets but can have a bad reputation. Keep up the great work you do & I am praying for sweet George to find his best forever home ❤️🐶
Aw well done this is a cracking series, so good to see real dogs and to see how different George is from Moira. I’m just a normal person trying to train two border collies, both from pups, I’ve made loads of mistakes and they are so different from each other but I love it when we have some success and have learned loads from watching your channel. My first dog Luna is so like Inertia and I’m trying to train her with our sheep! She is so keen to work but so excited that she finds it hard to listen to me when she is with sheep. Hey if you ever want to do a series on working dogs and come visit our Croft in Scotland you are most welcome! 😊
Wow amazing I love your training techniques and George is amazing love these episodes
He seems like he’s going to be the goodest boy around 🙂
I’m so excited to watch this series, George is SOOOO like our rescue dog was when she arrived in every way, it’s like watching us on our first walk!! We’ve had her 3 months and we have this exact response to fetch every time. I’m really looking forward to seeing how you work with him on it… although I’m not sure I’m strong enough! 😂
If you ever pick another dog to train from a shelter I would love to see more of that process. Maybe showing other dogs you considered and your first interaction if the shelter agrees
Zak and Bree you simply have to keep him – this connection is surely a once in a lifetime????
What do you do when he doesn’t return the toy for fetch? My dog will either lie down and chew the toy or come back without it!
Really enjoy your new series, Moyra and now George! Two breeds that can be challenging!
❤️🥰omg my heart is melting!! He is soo sweet and cute I love the brindle color! I think I am in love!
I am fascinated. He looks so close to my dog and he shows a very similar bevior when i took him out of the shelter back than. Happy to see a story like this. 🙂
You would be wise to swat up on play Zak. I don’t ever teach “fetch” now, I teach “chase and catch”. I don’t ever teach “tug” – I teach “possession games”. You are missing a big chunk of play skills that you would massively benefit from. Ivan Balabanov has an amazing understanding of play, he’s well worth learning from. Craig Ogilvie taught me how to properly play with dogs and it’s changed my whole approach.
He is absolutely amazing, 10/10!! I’d have fallen in love with him in this first 24 hours. He just seems to be so people-oriented and cheerful/easy-going in general. I find it heartbreaking that there are so many dogs in the shelters and everyday people still tend to choose to get their dogs from a breeder. So many lives go to waste while there are long waiting lists for popular breeder dogs.. What made You not rescue but buy Inertia from a breeder, @Zak George?
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
This channel warms my heart. Thank you both for all the work you do and love you bring!
Can you link the harness and leash you are using?
This series is gonna make me cry isn’t it
I think it would be really interesting to see Zak do training for a dog with a job once the reality dog training series has had many candidates already. The job could be service work, carting, “single” dog sled team, detection, show dog, etc. It doesn’t have to even be the whole training journey, it could just be the beginning he shows. It would be a good side series I think if Zak wanted to and had the space and time for it.
my family are getting a new puppy in just under 2 weeks, and these series have helped me already so much with understanding how to train a dog
LOVE these series!! thank you for the great work and i’m excited for what’s to come 🙂 one of few dog trainers who set dogs up for success instead of waiting for them to fail – great to watch!
George is such a sweetie…❤ pitties! Question. How do you curb aggression from frustration when a dog doesn’t get what he wants?
I was always a little nervous about bully breeds, until I got a bully puppy 5 months ago. They are smart, and total lovers! I hope George finds the perfect, loving home.
As the saying goes: “Don’t judge a book by its cover”. Pitbull breeds get such a bad and misinterpreted rep… Pitbulls are great dogs, they can be loving, caring, and even a great family dog… Especially if trained properly. My mom loves Pits and been around them and other dogs since her father was a vet.
I’ve been so excited for this series!!! George is adorable!! I’d love to see you foster a very fearful dog who gets triggered and turns to mouthing.
Really enjoy it. George is sooo sweet ❤️. He is so grateful to be out of the shelter and to with you guys.
George is such a smart boy, I’m super excited for this series!!
Loved the first episode!!!! Thank you 💜
I been waiting pitbull dogs so much! George seems so sweet boy, cant wait how good behaving boy he will be❤️
Why did you spend the first night sleeping next to him? How long will you spend sleeping in the same room?
SOOOO happy you’ve included more cuddles! 😍❤😀 and thanks for a nice, long video. 👍
Zak my dog is like a mirror image of Jorge
highly intelligent and rambunctious
when she gets excited on walks she’ll have episodes of biting and pulling on the leash and it is extremely difficult to get her to cut that out
that has been my main challenge with her she’s 1 year and 6 months. I got her at 6 months from the shelter
I love George so much! I can tell this will be my favorite series yet!
Please tell me they are gonna keep him. It’d break my heart if they don’t :’)
own his flop ears are sooo cute
Episode 1 felt like…..Christmas to me!! 😊 I was so very surprised to find out that the series started today,and I thank you,Bree,Indy,and Inertia for your patience,kind hearts,and expertise. I absolutely can’t wait for the next episode. If I had 10 thumbs,I’d give them all to this video 👍
Is George a girl cause it says he’s a boy but when he pees he does not lift his leg
OMG throughout the video you can see how Zak and Bree are falling in love with George … I hope so much you can keep him!
Oh no no u was NOT prepared when I said I needed this now I didn’t mean I needed this NOW
Thankyou for this series! I got the family watching so we can all partake in our 10 month pitbull! We’ve learned so much from your videos to have this now obedient family member!
This foster mom and dog adopter from rescues gets a little happy spot inside her whenever a dog like George (or a person) gets a shot in a loving environment. He is smart and it is going to take a lot to keep that brain busy!!
Wonderful episode. This is going to be great
I would LOVE to see Zac do a series with a rescue dog who shows very little interest in food and toys. It’s a problem many owners run into, and they don’t know how to proceed with training and often feel at a loss (since most easily accessible training tips mention giving treats as reinforcement). It would be a one-of-a-kind training series! I think another great series idea would be working with a more quiet, timid, and nervous rescue dog.
WHAT A KEEPER! (pun intended)
And he is doing so good! Watching this 1st video of George, I’m thinking “Wow, he doesn’t look overly traumatized by his months in the shelter and his previous life. This is so good… and very lucky!”
So many dogs will show agression out of fear but be labeled dangerous for life… they need a “REHAB Dog Training” from you, Mister George (the man, not the dog 😁)
Could you do one next?
I loved, loved, loved this first episode! I can’t wait to see many more with George.
Lovoly dog
GOOSE POOP! my 6months old Golden is acing her training but with goose poop she loses all sense of reality and wants to eat it ALL. I’m hoping she will get better at leaving it alone as she gains maturity.
,
When you were doing leave it look at me training every time he looked at you his tail wagged and my heart melted 😭
A bit late to comment but that trailer REALLY pulled me in, considering I’ve been watching the videos from when he very first got Inertia and every series since.
George has so much love to give and I can see that he has already made such a huge impact on Zak and Bree, and many others in the comments, including myself… he deserves all the love he’s getting! He’s very intelligent and eager to please, too.
I honestly really hope that this is going to wind up a foster failure, but totally understand that he also deserves the full attention somebody else can give him, whilst Zak opens up his home to helping even more dogs from the shelter find loving homes.
I can’t wait to see more of George, keep up the good work!
may be a good idea to write EP1S2 so we know what season this episode is in
Finally something I can relate to. I have an olde English bulldogge and he is something else.
I’m so excited about this series! I’m getting a Staffy puppy next year. I have been researching and watching tons of videos since February. I really want to be a good dog parent/owner.
I so excited for these episodes with Goerge. He looks like a combo of my 2 pittys.
I am so rooting for Zak to keep George.
I love these series that you do. You posting your training methods with full transparency, with strong untrained breed – really adds to your credibility.
What a sweet boy. I can tell this is going to be a great series.
Omg love this series already 🥰
I am SO EXCITED OMG
Where did you get that red ball that George likes so much?
George is so beautyfull and good nature dog. I love the episodes are getting this long 👏👏
The intro made me cry! Both of my rescue dogs are pit mixes and George’s flopping /kissing of Bree reminds me of their behavior! <3
“Leave it” and “look at me” in minutes! Brilliant trainer and dog! Looking forward to this series.
We adopted an American Pitbull Terrier over a year ago and she is a WONDERFUL dog and has many of the same traits as George. We are still dealing with issues of pulling, lunging at some people and dogs, and jumping. Enjoyed the first episode and are looking forward to the rest of the series hoping to find the right techniques to solve the rest of these problems.
I’ve been checking daily to see if episode 1 was out. So excited that it was 46 minutes! Loved every part of it! I’m looking forward to this.
I’m a vet tech and when clients ask about training I will mention you channel! Love you guys and all your doing!
The Team George! Wonderful work, men. I’ve already learned so much from you guys and I’ll keep watching.
That shot of you guys crying had me crying. I’m a former kitten foster (health stopped me from continuing), and I’ve cried over so many of them. I did a lot of medically-needy ones, including one that couldn’t walk, stand, or use a litter box.
With any foster, you’re pouring all the love and care into them you can, but I think with ones with high medical or training needs, you pour even more of you into them. Giving medicine 6+ times daily, running IV fluids twice a day, emergency vet visits in the middle of the night, bottle feeding, the chance of them losing their eyes if the meds regimen isn’t enough, one of them losing their fight… fostering is so, so rewarding but it’s also so, so hard.
Excited for this series- my dog is a pittie-mix and I’m working hard on desentization/counter conditioning with her. I can’t wait to see what you achieve with George!
I’m in love, he reminds me so much of my rescue staffy. She’s so derpy and clever, if George is anything like Bella, then things are gonna be super interesting, she does the most random stuff and goes from bone tired and barely able to jump on the furniture cos she’s so tired to super alert and hi energy in a matter of moments. Can’t wait for the next episode
Thank you so much for doing this. Hopefully this will encourage more people to adopt from shelters!!
I’m SO excited for this! George and my bully have the same “problems” I can’t wait to learn more on educating his breed.
How come George doesnt lift his leg when he pees? He seems to be almost fully grown up. Is it because he was fixed at the shelter?
oh man just after the trailer i knew i was gonna like this series a lot. boy was i wrong, i ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!! 40 minutes went by like nothing i cant wait for the next episode! thanks zak!
Reminds me so much of my Sally girl! Crazy walks, super excitable, and CUDDLY the first night. She’s also a pittie mix who spent the majority of her life in a shelter (got her at 9 months).
Oh no, I already love him
It looks like George is going to being teaching you just as much as you will teach him. 🙂 I love your attitude and commitment to these animals. Keep up the good work.
LMAO! This is what most owners I know give up on right away. I used to train dogs before I was disabled. These were my favorite ones to work with. Thank you for showing the world how you can work with and train a difficult dog (no matter the breed there is always this personality) you are in for a workout mentally and physically! All the good vibes to you and him!
I bet you end up keeping him! I think he was sent to you by a higher power!!! I so love your training techniques!!!!
Even without the look ahead to your affection for him, you can tell such a difference between how you feel about him on the first day, from how you were with Moira. You were wonderful with Moira, but you can just plainly see how much you like him already. I LOVE this series!
What a sweet dog! I’m in love with him already!
I love this new series. What smart Georges! 😅I know this may not be addressed in this series, but I would be interested in seeing Zak make a video on how to use positive reinforcement to train the “escape artist” tendencies out of dogs. People in my puppy play group have started the use of E-collars, but I know it is a very real threat that they just run through the invisible fence. Can’t wait to see more with George!
I love your honesty and openness. Nothing worth while comes easy. George is luck to have you on his team.
I’ve only watched through the intro so far and I’m already crying oh man
Ep1= great! Will be watching them all. 😀
Yes, good idea, promoting such dangerous dogs that are usually bought by insecure idiots and then become a menace to society… or end up in the pound…
Thank you so much for choosing a Pitbull! They get such a bad rap but are an amazing a wonderful breed. Saving my pitty Athena was the best thing that I ever did.
And thank you for working with a pit bull. They truly can be some of the best dogs.
These series are just getting better and better every time.
Love this Zak!
Wow! I’m so impressed with George! He’s sweet, smart, and so good for just out of the shelter! I’d love it if every dog we pulled from a shelter were like George! He’s really a good boy. And I hate it that so many good dogs like George don’t get homes because of what they look like.
I didn’t warm to George in the beginning, but by the end of the film, when i saw him with Brie and then with his puppy-like smile right at the end, I was sold.
Thank you so much for your commitment and love to dogs, to all the amazing content you give us, and your new focus on the untrained real world shelter dogs. And thank you for being honest and authentic in your work. All the dogs (and dog people) thank you for your mission.
Whoever adopts George is going to be VERY lucky 🥰
This will be one of the best dog training series, i am sure about that😍.. And patiently Waiting for the next episodes……
such an amazing dog :’)
My little mini golden doodle is just like inertia she loves dogs but doesn’t like new dogs to jump in then her. She need at least 4 hours with any new dogs before she is ready to do any intense play. Anything before that is all nipping and warning barks.
He is such a great boy, so docile and smart. He is not “rude” at all, the leash pulling is not even that bad. He is going to do so well! 🥰🐕❤
such a great intro to george!! so excited to see all his progress because he seems amazing already ♥️
Wow! What a great intro to “civilian” life for George! Fascinating to see how quickly he is able to adapt. From the preview clip, I know some tough training is coming, and some crazy amazing successes. Looking forward to every episode. 🙂
“look he’s peeing” *zooms in on pee stream*
I’m getting my new puppy in a month and these videos really help me for the new adventure!!
YAY! SOOOO EXCITED. HE IS SUCH A BABE. 😁😁😁
I cried with that trailer 😭 Im already in love with George
Thank you for choosing George,
Never thought I would be excited to see that a dog trainer just came out with a new long video on a new dog, lol I cant wait to see how things turn out!
Great to also see the first stages all in one go. Sometimes it feels as though success is achieved quickly with a lot going on off camera which we dont see. Didn’t get the sense of this today so loving it so far!! 🙂😊❤❤
46 minutes jackpot !!!!!! Love the longer videos . So excited to have a weekly video to watch ! Me and my husband watched your videos every week. And are so excited for these especially with a pittie . We have one who is our baby !
Love it!! Scavenging is a HUGE problem for my dog after living on the streets. He knows leave it etc but mostly he just cannot resist when its outside and he can smell bread FEET away which makes it difficult for me to spot first. Doesn’t matter whether I have a high value treat!! The bread wins and he knows he shouldn’t do it! Looking forward to seeing how Zak overcome this 😍
Can you tell us how old George is. I am having difficulty in figuring this out. Wow, what a wonderful dog. Very intelligent.
Where do I sign up? I want to adopt him If he doesn’t already have a home.
does anyone know which harness/leash is zack using???
I LOVE George already! My fiance and I have a young (5mo) pit/lab mix that has some of George’s issues so we’re STOKED to see how you address these =D
Thank you for taking on the pit bull challenge! We adopted a young pittie off the street several months ago and I’ve been waiting for you to train a dog like ours. George is exactly like our little pittie. While she has come so far, I’m excited to follow George’s training for more tips. Love these dogs!
Can you please do a series with a small shy dog next?
When is the next episode coming out? I can’t wait!!
Oh this is going to be GOOD!!! What an intro! Cannot wait for each episode. I hope you end up taking him! Pit-type dogs are just the best dogs ever when under loving guidance.
yea youre keeping him….
Can u make a video bout meeting a cat and a dog for the first time?
Toy “put away” out of reach on mantel.
Me- This dog better NOT allow things to be THAT simple!
Also me- YES, YES, YES GEORGE!!!
This is going to be a great series!!!
Great video and he’s a beautiful dog.
Yay! So excited for this series 😆
Any idea on age?
Hey Zach, great video. I have a pit mixed with a lab that has a very similar personality to George. He does great in all his training and is super smart but as with any 1 year old puppy he has tons of energy and can be a bit rough around small children. Do you think you can incorporate how to teach your dog to be respectful around small children with this video series?
Thank you
How could you NOT love George?! He is so smart and beautiful to boot and that’s from a small dog girl.
Brilliant Job George, both of you !!!!!!! 😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰😍🥰🥰😍
👍💪
ahhh you guys have a kia telluride! i just got one in november and i love it!
As a dog fosterer from the UK the trailer put tears in my eyes, totally feel your heartache. But thank you so much for helping him, really looking forward to seeing the journey! 🥰
Pitties and staffys are one of the most loyal, smart, loving and beautiful breeds ever ❤️ the love they give you and the pure happiness and excitement they give you when you come home, it’s amazing❤️ i love my pittie more than anything else💖
You are SO brave! I hope to get some good tips for my over reactive Yorkies.
I am so grateful to have the antidote to these horrible trainers like Cesar Milan who fed me and many others really bad information about dogs and how to interact with them. Thank you SO MUCH.
Hey, Zak ! After watching this video, I’m pretty excited for upcoming series !
Make sure you post remaining videos ASAP 😇👍
Is he sweet?
he is so smart and cute omg
Absolutely loving this! I’ve cried five times in the first episode! This type of breed is SO easy to love and they love their humans more than anything. I have two pitties of my own, and like George, they are SO smart and learn new tricks easily! Definitely a powerful and excitable breed though. We recently reached out to a dog trainer who recommended more dominating techniques, but Zak, I started training my puppy watching your videos almost 3 years ago and really only your methods and a lot of persistence and repetition has worked! And I don’t want to dominate my dogs, much rather train with a positive experience! Thank you for this series, I hope I can hold back crying as much as possible!
amazing vid! I see a little of my dog here, he’s also a jumper, strong and energetic dog obviously a puller, I’ll be watching the whole series <3
How much does he weigh?
Bree : “Uh oh, I just started to love him”
Me too, Bree…me too ❤️❤️
KEEP HIM
Woohoo! This is awesome!!! Training takes patience, today might not be good but keep in mind the dog they can be in the future 🐾
I’m 4 minutes in and I’m crying. This is going to really hit home for me 🥰
I have an amstaff puppy he is so sweet but I need to work on his puppy biting and potty training everything else is perfect … I would like any tips.
Loved this Zak!
not George calling a swann “a duck” at 9:56! lol
I love when George is playing he goes butt up and bouncy. It’s what my terrier does all of the time! They are a very playful energetic breeds.
Definitely trying some of these things on my dog
George is adorable <3
this is gonna be a great series!
His tail is always wagging! How adorable!
Ah I hope he keeps him. Aw the love
I think George needs a great dad, just like Zak! He learns very fast, he is energetic, playful, adorable! I trust that Zak will be a good magician again 🙂
Tears again. You’re the absolute best Zak George!!!
Can’t wait to see the final result.. but most importantly he finds a loving precious home..🥰
He has his issues, but George is such a special dog! If I can throw an idea in here, could you choose a very frightful dog once in the series? I think terrified dogs are absolutely the hardest to manage and train, given their set of trauma….
MY GOD he’s smart… jesus. And I love that you choose to do this series on a breed that’s usually known for being ‘naturally aggressive’. Helps break down that dangerous stereotype
Does anyone know what brand of harness he’s using?
This is amazing. You are genuinely one of the most amazing patient people I’ve ever seen. You do such an incredible job. George is a almost identical copy of our dog Ginny, and it’s been so difficult. Thank you so much for all you do!
Oh goodness, I’m in love with George!
A couple of questions:
Do you know an approximate age on George? I don’t recall you mentioning in your Facebook posts.
Can you talk a little about the decision making process to introduce George to Indy and Inertia right away, as opposed to viewers never saw interaction between Miora and your dogs? Might be helpful to viewers to learn some things to look out for when deciding when/when NOT to introduce animals.
In the beginning of the video we see Zak having to pick up George to get him into the crate/car, will you be training him to enter the car on his own? I have a strong/overpowering dog and as he gets older (heavier) it’s hard for my housemates to lift him. I’m disabled so I can’t lift him at all.
Lastly, you mention that George had sores on his feet from not being able to sleep on a soft surface in the shelter. Can you post if his shelter has a donation/Wishlist and an address to send items to? I’d love to help if able.
Looooooooooooved the first episode!!! I can’t wait for the next one. My dog gets scared by people sometimes and i really want to hlp him overcome this. Thank you so much for this amazing content!!! You are the best trainer i know and you have inspired me to train my rescue border collie mix. All the love from sunny Grecce!!!!
I love this video. You are doing a good job.
I’m so glad you selected a bully breed for this. They get such a bad rap and too many people generalize the breeds as ‘viscous’ mostly due to sensationalism by the news. The vast majority of these dogs are sweet and gentle when given the proper love and training.
I have a feeling George has found his forever home in the George household!. Excited to see his journey!
wow, i mean, w o w, that dog is a genius💡i do believe in the whole stereotypes about pit bulls but it really is a shame that such wonderful dogs have such bad reputations. they just wanna be loved. thank you for changing the life of one pit bull! ❤️🐾
Keep himmmm
I volunteer at a big shelter in California. I mentor canine foster families and Zak’s channel is the first link I send out to them when they bring their foster home. I love Zak’s training methods and that he also shows his own mistakes. We get so many pitties at the shelter and I couldn’t wait for this series to start. Thanks Zak!
Very cool video!
Good work as always Zak! Love ur videos keep it up. Very inspiring
Great start. Hope this week goes quick. Looking forward to next episode.
Yes!!! Obsessed with this long-form George and George content ❤️
Foster fail on day 1?
He was like shhhhhh asmr
This is going to be an awesome series. You can see the love in both George’s eyes.
Would love to see you tackle a Heeler or Texas Heeler to train. Helping those who didn’t know what they were getting into with a high energy cattle dog, with an intense urge to Herd.
Awesome! I’m wondering why you let George interact with Inertia but not Moira?
I enjoyed it n have a dog that is a puller n jumps at other dogs. . So hope to learn from you
I trained my pups to sit stay and other impressive things just by watching his vids for a day
Good Looking Pittie
This is so cuuuuute he is such a good boy!!
Thank you for helping this beautiful animal. The shelters are full of them and they deserve a great home. You’re amazing.
That trailer!!
Looking forward to your progress with George.
Ahh!!!! Can’t wait to see his progress !!! Love it already he is so brilliant !!!
you and George match soooo well! bully breeds are so loving and you can see George is the type of dog that would give everything to please and just be with you. I’m hoping you keep him and after the series end we watch more of you and him!
i hope u will keep George.
This trailer took me down memory lane hard. My old dog (pit/Australian healer) was married to his hex ball and could pull you in a sled across concrete. This is great for the pit community to show how awesome they are when owners put the effort in. Have a pit/irish wolfhound mix now.
*Reality dog training series is epic, you are Zak the God for Dog’s*
Why do you use crates in the us? Just curious because in Sweden it is only allowed to use them in cars during transport. Wonderful dog though!
I love this dog!!😍😍
Zak george is the best ive been watching him since last year before I was going get my dog my dog is fully trained cause I have learnt from his vids all my dog just needs to learn is not to bark at everything like dogs and humans so I am hoping to see that in some of these episodes
my dog is this strong and stubborn …. she has broken 2 of my fingers trying to hold her
This is my rescue, Hiccup, to a T! Same look, same mannerisms, exact same behaviours! We’ve come a long way so far but this series will be incredibly helpful for our training! Thank you George, Zak and Bree ♥️
Great start to the new series , Zac 😃. I’m looking forward to seeing how you stop gorgeous George pulling while walking on his lead
Gosh, he is soooo sweet ❤ I really hope I’ll find a dog like him when I look for my future dog once the shelters open for visitors again here in Germany 🙆🏼♀️
How old is George? Doesn’t seem too old, especially as he’s not lifting is leg pee
I already know that this series is going to be emotional!
Oh my goodness, I am in love with George and how much he loves you both. This is going to be my favorite series yet.
Amazing first video with a pit bull, and finally someone that can handle one properly. Everyone I know that’s had one has used the wrong approach with them. Every single time. Everyone seems to have the insane idea that because they are a naturally powerful breed that they have to be handled with muscle and severity. and usually turns out with them abandoning the dog to a shelter in the end. I will ABSOLUTELY be recommending this series to those I know with a dog like this. To show them how wrong they were in how they raised them… Well done!!
🙂

“Good boy, ur responding VeRy well to ur Ahe Ahe”
Zak George 2021…
Just like my dogg my God @miloaventura
I am literally in tears 4 min in…I loved the Moira series, but this dog is more like my Macy in terms of behavior and determination. I am so happy you are doing this for me and for her. We have come a long way, but we still have work to do. And I look forward to working along with this series and getting tips and watching you handle him.
The moment i saw that teaser… Goodness! How good it was! All it did was just hype me more about this series!
This is dog like my dog but some things
Can’t wait to see the whole series
Omg this dog! Bully breeds aren’t “my breed” but I’m pretty sure this dog would be a foster fail for me 😍🐶🤗
@netflix has to get you a show. Ot YouTube but this has to go bigger! Thank you.
!
you are going to keep him <3 he is awesome.
Thank you for this one. Beautiful dog. Reminds me of my first dog, it takes work, but he turned out to be the best, smartest dog in the park.
I swear, we rescued “George’s” twin in November – same breed, same coloring, same loveable and exhausting untrained behaviors…looking forward to this series!
Top
wow….isnt he just the sweetest 🥺💞 he already seems so smart, i cannot wait to see what youll be able to teach him😍
How do I find that ball?
I was in for a most challenging….. 😅😌
This had me laughing and crying at the same time! I can’t wait to see this series!
C’mon… I know you’re more creative with your thumbnails than this… 2nd series, different dog and same old thumbnails.
Great start to another great series!
Is George wearing the same brand of harness Moria had?
All the ppl who dislike just need a bully breed in their lives
I was afraid that this series would be too similar to Moira but after seeing that first walk I knew this was going to be a wild ride! Can’t wait to see how this series progresses
The same thing again just teaching tricks not obedience. The gsd. Couldn’t even walk close to other dogs not even 10 ft. Away.. Excuse was dog aggressive and young and little training. So what happened to his dog? Can inertia walk freely no leash with out treats or toys and just listen out of love when other stimulus get her attention. You wonder why he never does check ups with his old dogs he trained with its gonna be the same result and excuse not enough training even after so many years and its the owners fault. After how many dog you trained and no one comes back and show their progress. Wow.
He’s adorable!💕
Thank you for showing how you introduced inertia. My dog also gets unsure around some dogs sometimes, could you show how you worked with that with inertia?
It’s always so motivational for me in the intros and the episodes themselves when you’re just able to train dogs that seem untrainable! Magician!
That is nice, I’m just expecting Dr Pawfessor reaction to Zak’s new series…
George is sooooooooo adorable…I am so excited for this series after the Moira series…loving these videos a lot
Zak I am totally amazed on how much patience you have with dogs bcause you love what you do!
Kudos to you and your wife for this channel and teaching people how to teach our dogs o behave.
I’m so happy your doing this series! We took in a dumped pity mix towards at the beginning of the pandemic. And we are still struggling everyday. Luna has more problems than George because she started from a place of being terrified of humans and human hands.
Yay it’s finally here! 🙂
Fantastic dog. Obviously smart and kind. He will be perfect with some training. We would take him immediately. 👍
George is such a sweet boy, I can see how it was easy to fall in love with him right away! I won’t lie, I hope he found his forever home with you guys. I can’t wait to see where this series goes.
I have a stubborn basset hound. Had I known how stubborn they were I would have not chosen this breed. However Its to late I love him he is family and I keep trying to train him. He is house trained and basic things but his stubbornness is unreal. Anything on Bassetts would be helpful. 🙂
Sooo excited to watch George!!!❤❤❤
How old is the little guy?
25:50 “Okkkay We are not that friendly just yet. ” 😂😂😂
By the end of this series.
OK he’s not leaving this 🏡.❤️❤️
George ♥️♥️♥️
Oh my gosh I am so in love with George and I’ve never even met him, I can’t even imagine how much you must love him!
Finally training a bully breed properly without “Dominating ” it….
Excellent! Lucy (gsd rescue ) and I had fun. George looks like a wonderful dog. I’ve rescued everyone of my dogs- foster failure twice (I’ve learned… no more fostering!). I truly believe those who foster have a heart bigger than mine- got to love these dogs and beyond to give them your heart and let them go! Lucy keeps working on her reactivity so we can hopefully adopt a pit! Can’t wait to see his transformation…. you can tell on day 1 George has so much potential.
I like that your training a boy dog, it’s been a while!
😭😭😭 < me. Thank you for doing a series like this and taking on homeless dogs!
Is there an anti-pull halter that hooks to the leash on a dog’s back? I’m in a wheelchair and as it is my dog gets tangled up a bit in the leash when he’s hooked to the current halter at his chest.
Love love love this!!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love him😭😭😭broke my heart to see the sores on his paws
He is definitely smart, but more importantly (I think), he seems to absolutely love people and so much want to please you! I know his jumping is rude, but it’s because he’s so excited by people. Especially given his background, it’s amazing how happy and comfortable he is around people (and other dogs!) His strength and bad habits will be a challenge, but he’s going to make someone an amazing dog.
George was like my pitty 14 years ago. I thought he would never stop jumping and pulling. I was Not going to take him back to the shelter and I thought I was going to resign to have a crazy pit bull. But he is the smartest dog, not just smart but clever. Now I have two Pitts and the are the BEST DOGS EVER! No pulling, no jumping and lots of tricks.
@zak pls help me. I have been emailing you since a long. I have a pitbull and need help. urgent. pls pls pls help.
I love this series already!! 💕
this is the best thing ever
Sad to see so many homeless dogs..
I’m only a minute and a half into the video but thank you already for choosing a Pittie to train! That “breed” gets such a bad rap all the time…I have owned more than one and they are wonderful, loving and incredible smart dogs…people need to give them a chance and I think this will be very helpful! Maybe people will consider rescuing a “pibble” after seeing how trainable they are! Thank you!
George is the cutest thing I’ve ever seen 🥰
I’ve rescued two pitbulls now. This video will definitely come in handy. Thanks for respecting the breed. 👍👍
Zach: I try to use the least aversive method
Also Zach: 2:05
Bully breeds are so amazing. They’re smart, strong, extremely loyal and devoted to their families. I wasn’t a dog person until one was abandoned on my parents porch. Keeping him has been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I’m really excited about this series. Thank you for this 🙏🏽
I’m Glad he’s doing this. I’ve had Pittys my entire life. I can tell you from experience that you won’t be successful if you try to train a Border Collie the same way as you train a PitBull. This will be interesting
Hello!!
i am looking for your video like i am waiting for some television thriller series.
Makes me just sick to see all those in shelters. I be a lot more impressed if he arranged to get the others ,something , that would make stand out for the public so they could get adopted. I do think he’s a pretty good trainer.
YESSSS! Pit bull. I have a pit bull. Im really going to be invested in this series. Thank you!
These videos are the highlight of my week
So excited for this series 😀
Obviously this first episode is amazing, but I was blown away by the stunning nature shots from the walks!!! Go Bree 👏🏻
I have a pit bull, that though he’s had training, and is a good guy, he does have reactive problems. It does make life interesting.
Zac I am so excited about your new series. I tell everyone I know about how much you are/have taught me while working with my own pup Anubis. You are the absolute BEST people and dog trainer I’ve ever seen. Thank you for showing people you don’t have to dominate or bully your dog into learning.
The trailer for this series was so captivating! Can’t wait to watch how George does!
I’m SOOOOOO EXCITED for this series I rescued a Great Dane/lab from a shelter and I have similar issues especially with the strength and not releasing
I know the dogs don’t understand it but the fact that you address George as ‘Sir’ and Moira as ‘Ma’am’ every so often subtly emphasizes to the humans watching that the foundation of your relationship is always respect.
Everyone should know that training any dog takes patience and hard work.
Wow I’m super excited for this series
Loving it! Looking forward to more episodes but just a small request for them to be a bit smaller like previous ones, 46 minutes is a lotttt hah
I always enjoy watching your videos because I learn a lot about dogs.
Just out of curiosity, what is the best and worse part about dog training? What are your thoughts on dog shows? Would you ever put one of your dogs in a dog show?
I’m so excited for this series omg !!
Since 2018❤️
Yay! I love him!!!! George is amazing! You did amazing!👏👏👏👏
seeing all those dogs in the shelter was heartbreaking. I wouldn’t be able to choose!
“And this is George. No relation.” 😅
i would recommend this video to people who dont even have a dog
Yay new episode
TIP! Hey for the collar scratching some pitbulls skin is very sensitive I had my pitbull on one and changed it to a leather collar and no more scratching !
No relation 😂😂
Zak, can you make a video about traveling with a dog in the future? Like by airline, car, first aid, etc,… for example how did you take inertia to Alaska!
Awesome!
Yes omg it’s here I’m so happy! 🙂
This series has already made me cry. I love George already. He’s a special one. ❤❤
So did you keep him?? I sure hope so! When will we find out?
awww in the teaser he changed so much! Im so impressed. I really think you should adopt him! Pit bulls are the best!
Really excited for this series
Wow I have a pitbull who acts the same way.. We love you man for all you do!!!!!! Pit bulls are amazing with proper training
I’m worried, not reading comments yet?
Ive watched all your vids & will be heavily into this one , for help raising my 6month Anerican Bandogge
Excited for this new series I am so happy!
I love pitties
I fear Rescue American Bullies after one bit me and my puppy Husky. However good luck with that Zak.
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Who is this Zak George guy, he can’t even train a dog to let go of a ball! 😉
Loving the last series and this one looks great as well, keep it up!
Thank you so much for this series, I’m having trouble with my pit, so hopefully this series guides me
I love it
Every time I see that intro, I well up. Thank you so much for everything you do and for showing the world that dogs like George just need a chance <3
This is gonna help quite a lot
I wish zak would keep George he seems like a really good boy
What a handsome boy 🥺 he’s so eager to interact with the world.
