Canine Intervention

Redemption, consistency, strong boundaries, compassion, treats/praise/play! And so much more about how to be in the world, be you Dog or Human. Jas' heart for his life's work is so present, in every episode. And if you love dogs.... you cannot help but love seeing them transform.

Everybody misses the point of this show. Yes they talk to the owners a lot but there's a good reason for it. 90% of the problems isn't the dogs it's the owners. The owners have no idea how to train the dog. Once they realize they have to be the leader then that fixes most of their problems. I feel this show is more of a basic training for owners who have no idea what they are doing. He's just counselling them and helping them figure out what they are doing wrong. It's a system and a mindset change that he is enforcing.

I never write reviews on this site but I saw so many trolls commenting that I had to give my own 2 cents.

I went into watching this knowing it was going to have reality show qualities. Hello people - this is Netflix. 🙄

I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed the series as a whole. No we didn't see the exact techniques used for every dog but Jas did an amazing job showing that the owners ultimately control the situation. It's up to them to be the "alpha" ( I can tell a lot of the reviewers were also triggered by this word because they are clearly betas.) I also appreciated the different people they had on, not every pet owner is going to be the same. Regardless of whether you agree with peoples lifestyles or not, this is the reality of the world.

There was never any abuse (as so many of these weird PETA like reviews claim) and the dogs all look extremely happy. In fact. Over and over again you can see positive reinforcement being made with treats in hand.

Overall I believe this show reminds us that owning and training a dog also teaches you to be the better version of yourself. Don't let all the negative reviews on here let you think otherwise.

I've read lots of reviews saying that Jas's training methods are not humane but I really don't get it? As far as I can tell he advocates giving the dogs lots of praise and treats during training. What is bad about that? I've also seen people criticising the theory that dogs are pack animals but surely, whether that is true or not, dogs need boundaries just like children do? I can only assume that either I am missing something from the show or that the people that like to criticise it are the same naive people that think that it's ok to tolerate bad behaviour. Anyway, I loved seeing the dogs becoming happier and calmer, my criticism would be that there's a little too much focus on the trainer and not enough on the dogs. Worth watching though.

Not sure why so many people are hating on this show, too many people crying about abusive methods used by Jas but im not sure if they were watching a different show. Apparantly telling the owner to not let the dog wear shoes is cruel. I watched a great show about a dog trainer helping owners and dogs. Hope we get a season 2.
