 Air Force Academy and we're doing our close-out filming with Moshe. Moshe Caffrey, one of the best dog trainers I've ever met. I've worked dogs in the military and we've done a lot of aggression work and a whole bunch of different things. I just didn't have that special training that Moshe has and he got it from his mentor. My family and I called on him. In fact I researched the dog whisper. Richard Hines is how I found Moshe because I found his website and Richard is an like top-notch dog trainer and he understands dogs the way nobody else did. Well I found out that Moshe had gone through Richard's training Academy and I didn't have the skill set to deal with it. He, Picasso, was coming up on my boys, drew blood. It was to the point up on me. It was to the point where I almost had to put Picasso down until I found Richard and Moshe. And Moshe has been with us for months now working with Picasso and without him we wouldn't be where we are. I honestly believe that we would have had to put Picasso down because the aggression that he was displaying to the family and it came out of the blue. I've trained him. He's well trained but this was just way above my skill set. Moshe is a great dog trainer. If you need help in all kinds of different areas of dog training seek out Moshe and if you're in the Florida area seek out Richard. They're top-notch. Thank you so much to both of you. To Moshe and to Richard thank you so much from me and my family. We appreciate it. Hi everybody. Moshe Kafe is a difference make-a-dog trainer. Today's case is Picasso, a German Shepherd, a great dog, great pedigree, awesome drive. To a point that at four years old out of the blue he decided to turn on his family and attack everybody, attack the two sons, attack the mother and then turn on his master on team. It came out of nowhere. The family have some speculations about why it happened but he called me and we decided to work on the case and solve it. Team used to be a dog handler in the military for 14 years. He did a tremendous job training his dog but when it came to this sudden attack he was at a loss and he needed and out needed an outside help. This is where I came in. For me I implemented the method that I learned with my coach and mentor Richard Hines that goes by the Miami Dog Whisperer. In my opinion one of the best dog trainers in the world. Now this case different than normal aggression cases. Most cases the dog will attack me, strangers, other dogs. In this case which is pretty rare, it happened I have maybe six or seven cases like this before that the dog actually something flipped and he turns on the family and this was extreme aggression but we addressed it and you can see the results. The dog is back to his own, he's back to normal, he's doing great now and overall the system works. I can't give enough credit to team Valerie, Brandon and Michael the kids. They took everything I said and implemented it to the T. Now yes I'm a straight shooter and I say the way it is and sometimes it's hard for people to implement because I'm asking a lot but I'll tell you that we had some hard-to-hard talks when they felt sorry for the dog at times but then they got with the program and understood that this is the only way we're going to get out of this deep hole and you know what it worked so with this being said let's go and watch some stuff. So Michael and Brandon. Yep. Team and Valerie. Yes. Why my memory is still working guys. Get out of the mind. Okay. Talk to me. So Moshe the reason we called you out here today is because we have a four-year-old German Shepherd Picasso who is Michael's dog. We got him when Michael's 14 and here lately and when I say lately it's a couple times along the eight months, 10 months. Probably about a year, year and a half. It's when the first sign is here. Yeah a little bit of aggression came up then but it's really been progressively worse here in the recent month or so and so to the point where he's tried to attack Michael, he's tried to attack Brandon and so we want to try to get this corrected. It's causing a lot of stress in the family and you know Picasso is part of the family and we want to resolve this so that we can all live together the way we're supposed to. So I saw the dog whisper in Miami, Richard Hines. I saw some video on you training with him and way back when I used to be a dog handler in the military and I liked your approach. His approach was definitely different than all the 100% positive reinforcement which just doesn't work all the time and so that's why I reached out to you and that's kind of where we're at right now. I guess kind of just trying to help our dog Picasso and try and get him back on track because for the past I would say a year or so he's been kind of iffy with us and he's been trying to go at us a little bit but now it's really progressed to something that it can't really go on any longer because it's really just impacting the whole family and it's also making a negative environment for him I feel so it's pretty much it for me I guess. Did he broke skin with you? Yeah he broke skin and he kind of like jumped on me and scratched me a little bit but nothing too bad like and before that he's kind of broken skin a little bit but nothing. By fighting? Yeah okay. Let me jump in there briefly. When he says not too bad each time we'd have to pull him off so it hasn't had he hasn't Picasso hasn't had the ability to go full attack on him so we don't know how far he would go or not. Yeah pretty much the pretty much the same picking back off of Michael just trying to figure out what's going on with him to get the situation corrected because yeah it's definitely brought a lot of stress onto the household and you know we don't want to have anything bad happen to Picasso either you know because we want to keep him around part of the family we don't want to have to put him down or give him away and that's never the option at least with us but yeah I'm tired of getting jumped on and having to walk on eggshells so. For me because it's escalated in the last several weeks I'm becoming more fearful about correcting him because once he gets in the moment of his attack or defense then it's kind of like he doesn't hear anything and you know he's fixated on it so that's kind of you know I'm looking for I'm looking for all this to calm down where we don't have to get to that extreme and not be afraid to put a collar on our you know our dog and you know be afraid that my kids are going to get jumped out of the blue you know right so. Gospel night we're working together this was after he had shown signs of aggression to my sons and we were doing some stuff Moshe had had us use a muzzle and I was just trying to get him into the car and he wasn't going all of a sudden he came up on me he was trying to get my throat in my face had that muzzle not been on he would have got me and he kept coming and then finally and that stopped the attack but for a good I don't know it was at least a solid minute he was coming after me clawing me and trying to get my face that happened in the garage but it also happened in the house a couple times and then it's happened to my sons as well. Hey how you doing? How you doing? How you doing? And I'm just going to come walking out with him right I want you to stand I want you to come with him right here and I'll tell you when you know then okay when he if I go there and he shows son that you want to attack me go with him forward until he engages me okay but let him get close to me and let him bite me okay no today when we did a lot of the stuff that he would normally growl at me taken off the or playing with the ecology the muzzle feeding whatever he didn't growl and I think it's because you're here and that adds a different dynamic but also it could well be that he's feeling your energy as opposed to ours because now we're a little we're a little reluctant because he's come up on us a little bit so maybe he is sensing the fear in us more so and then when you're here we feel more confident with you being here and then our fears goes away and he doesn't pick up those pheromones or whatever so it's just a theory I don't know for sure but it might be all right see how he's doing yes okay so put it back and say it okay that's fine here we go so it took a couple times that's fine let me understand something before let me ask you a question so you say that when you take it off or put it on the muzzle he growls when he sometimes when I'm just reaching for around there he'll growl okay let's see stand right next to him right next to him okay that's it okay okay now back again yeah muzzle muzzle alone here you are ready yes okay be ready stand like sit good very good put it back down sit okay all right that's good that's you read my mind slow having cut no no having come to you now yeah never go to him okay pause yep okay do we have more food yeah I do standing back house you may call him to me first and then house or straight to house straight to house okay house now calling back out here and back here say house house you understand why I ask you to do it in different angle in different position because I'm standing over him it's different form so okay do it like you always do all the commands everything I want to say something to you the job that you did in training him okay it's beautiful again do it say again he loves these games you know yep no we are going to go back to it because I want what I want to do I want to take a break just to get him to to coming down right now what I see today at least at least if I'm here wife not here I don't know where the difference is but I don't think it's me but okay find it we stopped all yes but this is a way of this is a way of um hold him up a little he'll get pissed hold him off his front feet I need to see you know just go around he's supposed to follow go the other way he's supposed to sit on there okay okay sit sit sit ready go play that's what he's been doing well that's good well there's no attacks that's the important thing I'm trying to house here from there yep yeah we're supposed to be loving you know we are the air force academy in Colorado Springs and we are going to do some drills with Picasso this is team and Picasso is German Shepherd team was a dog handler for 14 years in the military in his past what we call in the in his good days right it's young prime days here you go and we are going to show some drills that he does with his dogs and to show the drives that Picasso have here down he's behaving like a normal dog right now good boy because then it has all those different distractions yes and different dogs you see yes down sit I've worked as a dog handler in the army and uh we we couldn't get under control uh he actually drew blood on Michael uh he was going after Brennan he went up on me when we were doing some stuff I had the muzzle after we were training and he almost got my face had I not had the muzzle on he would have got my throat and my face all I can tell you is listen to what Moshe says because we could have sped this up a whole lot faster but we the family weren't on board so I highly recommend Moshe's training techniques and if you've got a problem dog he'll be able to help you we needed help so we found Moshe and I have to say you know since this journey began we've made some mistakes like Tim said the you know it's a little bit more difficult when you're dealing with multiple people trying to stay on a training program because we all have our opinions but at the end of the day um you know once we started to focus and and implement you know the recommendations and the training uh recommendations that um that Moshe brought to the table I think that we were able to accomplish a lot and get to where we are today so um yeah with that said thank you Moshe Brendan yeah yeah piggybacking off of after my parents um Picasso was getting real aggressive and starting to go up on me and my brother and then my dad after and uh that's when that's when they found you and then we started this whole this whole thing to try to get Picasso back to back to somewhere predictable and to a better state of mind but yeah it is definitely been a process I mean I haven't been part of I mean part of the whole process but after going through a couple of lessons with you and and adhering to what you had to say um Picasso has definitely changed his attitude for the most part him and I have been able to work it out and and move on um the attitude changed tremendously though and I haven't felt worried or scared or anything like that I can feel come up come up the stairs with confidence without without him ripping my face off so definitely uh definitely recommend Moshe services because he's definitely helped out helped out a whole bunch so and again those hiccups of Brendan's referencing it's because we're not following the plan save yourself some pain listen to what Moshe says apply it of course you know your dog as well but just get on the plan and he will get your dog squared away so thank you so much Moshe we appreciate it thank you thank you I hope you enjoyed this video until next time the difference maker dog trainer Moshe Kaffee at your service
