Dog trainer Sailor Ellis demonstrates how dogs read body language by training her dog Chance through hand signals and cue words. Even deaf dogs can learn this way. She also warns against hugging unfamiliar dogs, which can trigger fear and biting.
This one's mine. Yeah. Our next act involves a, a special canine named Chance. And his trainer, Sailor Ellis. Let's see what Chance can do. My name is Sailor Ellis. I love animals and my talent is dog training. Today I'm going to work with my dog, Tim, with my football chair. Something interesting about dogs is that they understand a lot just by watching and observing. Did you know they are masters at body language? That is why dogs that can't hear can still be trained. I'm going to ask Chance to do something with those hands and call her over. Sit. Good girl. K. 10. 11. 12. 13. Watch me. 1, 2, 3. Candy. Down, down, head down. I just wanted to say a word about safety. You should never hug a dog you don't know. Believe it or not, it can be really scary for them. If they didn't feel scared, they might nip or bite. So play it safe and never hug a dog you don't know. That's great. That was great.
