There are dogs... and then there is the Dogo Argentino...

09/05/2024

ℹ️ 📖 Dogo Argentino history | Archives of the glory days: 1975...
..Back when the Dogo Argentino was exactly what Dr. Antonio Nores Martínez had imagined it to be: an amazing, UNIQUE dog, true to its function.
..Back when there were no impostors, no compromises being made for financial gains around these dogs, and no ’paper champions’.

Today, most so-called Dogos are just a bunch of ‘white dogs’ with very little in common with the TRUE Dogo Argentino of old.

❗The faith of hyper-aggressive livestock guardian dogs: they either get killed by predators or by their own pack that turns against them following repeated, constant, unnecessary attacks.

🚫 Livestock guardian dogs DO NOT engage predators: they keep them AT BAY. Nothing more, nothing less.

⬇️
🚫 Livestock guardian dogs (Central Asian shepherd dogs, Caucasian Shepherd dogs, Tibetan Mastiffs etc etc etc) ARE NOT FIGHTING DOGS.
In addition, a dog –any dog– that tries to fight a wolf or bear '1 on 1' = a DEAD DOG.

⬇️
🚫 A few Kangal shepherd dogs (a mediocre breed of dogs inferior to any half-decent Central Asian shepherd dog) pitted against a SMALL, CAPTIVE, CLAWLESS, TOOTHLESS, BEATEN-UP bear –all for an Internet video/cheap marketing for simpletons– means NOTHING.
Watch our previous videos to understand that, in Turkey and in neighbouring countries, Kangal shepherd dogs –even in packs– are nothing more than 'wolf food' (and you're dreaming about killing bears... in your modern world... with your modern, city Kangal...).

🚫 'Do not make the mistake of treating your dogs like humans, or they will treat you like dogs.'
—Martha Scott.

VIDEO here: https://fb.watch/oX8Q1NIUPj/

ℹ️ If one truly understands canine psychology and behavior, thinking of/treating your pet as human is -truly- a disservice to the animal.
⬇️

My DOG:

My dog is not my 'child'.

My dog is not my 'fur baby'.

I am not ITS 'mother/father'.

My dog is my dog. IT is my animal partner. To treat IT like a child, to infantilise IT, and make it seem as though IT 'needs' my constant coddling and/or protection, would be -extremely- unfair to IT.

My dog is a carnivore that I have brought into my human world. Because of this, it is my responsibility as ITS owner:

1) To communicate with IT in a way that IT can understand.

2) To provide leadership, discipline and (mutual) respect.

3) To understand ITS instincts and needs, and provide appropriate outlets for them.

4) To train IT and provide IT with the necessary skills in order for IT to be able to function -effectively- in our human world.

Our dogs deserve to be given responsibility, and allowed to be the animals that they are, and not 'babies'. Don't try to make them into 'tiny humans'. They are not, and they do not want to be.
Dogs are wonderful because they are dogs.

Let them be dogs.

🚫 Why You Should NOT Let Strangers Feed Your Pup
⬇️

ℹ️ It is important to note why letting strangers feed your dog treats and food is not a solution to your socialisation problem.
⬇️

First, it starts with the actual definition of socialisation, and NOT what we PERCEIVE socialisation to mean. Socialisation is your dog's ability to handle new stress and stimuli in a way that we deem 'acceptable' -i.e. going to new places without getting overly excited, meeting new people without jumping up on them, and even seeing/meeting new dogs- without becoming reactive (agressive, etc).

⬇️
So, when it comes to introducing your dog to new people, it seems 'logical' to want that person to feed your dog some treats to show the dog that the new person is not 'bad' and that they should 'like' them. In all actuality, this is highly counter-productive.

⬇️
First, this teaches the dog that new people are 'treat machines' which leads to your dog becoming even more excited when they meet new people, instead of remaining calm.

⬇️
Secondly, this teaches your dog that they do not have to engage with you and keep their focus on you. It teaches them that outside stimulus is more important that whatever you say, do or want/ask of them.

⬇️
So, what is the right way to deal with this? The correct way to act when around someone’s new puppy is to ignore the pup: do not invade its space; do not look at it; do not talk to it, and do not try to pet it.

⬇️
The correct way to handle strangers is to always be prepared with a bait bag full of high value food treats and one with praises. And if you see that your pup is a little concerned about someone/something, then get the pup engaged with you. It is your job to become more 'interesting' than the stranger (human, animal) or thing, and if the praises and food rewards are high enough, the pup will look at strangers and other stimuli as the 'trigger' for their owner to play with them and give them those fu***ng treats.
