Quote

If you give only 80 percent leadership, your dog will give you 80 percent following. And the other 20 percent of the time he will run the show. If you give your dog any opportunity for him to lead you, he will take it.

The dog is a reflection of your energy, of your behavior. You have to ask, 'What am I doing?' That's the right question to ask.

Repetition creates the master.

Owners lavish love on their pets, which is why so many go from non-aggressive pups to being out of control when they're older. People just don't realise their dog must respect them as leader of the pack.

You can also hurt a dog if it's insecure, if a dog is nervous and then you try to pet him, you can make him more nervous. It's not just the aggressive dogs that you can get hurt. It's also the dogs that you can actually hurt. It works both ways.

The dog can only become what's in your bubble. The dog is imitating the energy that is in your bubble. You are the source, the feast of energy. If you feel anxious, the dog becomes anxious with you. If you become nervous, the dog wakes up nervous with you.

Give your dog something to do before you share food, water, toys or affection. This way the dog earns his treat. For example, have him or her perform the sit or down command.

Puppies and kids naturally go together, but it's up to the adults to teach them how to do it the right way.

Dogs do know how comfortable you are with yourself, how happy you are, how fearful you are, and what is missing inside of you.

There are a lot of things that people are doing unconsciously wrong.

It's important to note that aggression isn't the problem. It's the outcome of a problem.

Aggression is not a breed thing. Its a state of mind, and it comes from how the human is with the dog. There are four levels of energy, regardless of the breed: low, medium, high, very high. The idea is to get a dog in your same level or lower than you.

It's an up and down thing, the human goals, because the human is always an explorer, an adventurist.
