Apollo is a 6 yr old Doberman (more like a pony dressed as a doberman) and came in for a board and train program. Apollo has had some Schutzhund training will bite a sleeve, & knows his obedience but is non-compliant at this point, dragging his owners down the road on walks and wanting to chase moving objects and animals. He is very prey driven and drawn to anything that moves outside (can you spell s-q-u-i-r-r-e-l?).
When Nick went to pickup Apollo - he refused to get in the truck and into a crate and bit Nick in the arm 2 times before we just decided to let him ride free in the back of the truck to avoid any further problems for the time being. This video was filmed the same day at the kennel with approx. 1/2 hour of training prior to filming it. No more conflict in the dog and a willing boy to jump in and wait for permission to come out. A sign of great things to come:-)
Check back in three weeks and let’s see what he becomes...
