In part 2 of Vigilance Elite's "Shawn Ryan Show" #005 with Mike Ritland we discuss some of his methods as a top tier K9 dog trainer working with military, police, and many other government agencies. We go into great detail about the psychology and mindset of the warrior dogs and the toll that a deployment full of combat has on the dogs as they return home from war. Mike opens up about his non-profit "The Warrior Dog Foundation" which rehabilitates and gives dogs coming back from war a home they can be comfortable in.

The use of corrections is only necessary in cases of challenging and dangerous dog behavior. It's crucial to create a positive environment when teaching dogs new behaviors.
The SEAL Team Six had to train their own members to handle dogs that are capable of performing combat operations. It is crucial for all members to understand how to handle the dogs in medevac situations or when accompanying the handler in case of injuries during operations.
In high-level tier one units, dogs are attached to their handler and the team, making it difficult for someone else to pick up the leash. However, there are some dogs that can easily adapt to different handlers and working conditions.
The growling behavior of a dog is often a sign of discomfort, fear or nervousness. While it is important for an adversary to use this weakness to defeat a dog, a good handler and owner should be observant enough to understand why the dog is growling.
Joe Rogan talks about his experience with training dogs and the progression from wanting to be tough to learning how to effectively mind trick dogs into not messing with him.
The way people communicate with their dogs through cues and mannerisms is often mirrored by the dogs themselves, leading to better understanding of each other's emotions and behaviors.
A former cop explains how he trained police dogs and deaf dogs to communicate with flashlights instead of using vocal commands.
To become a successful service dog, it is necessary to be a socially submissive dog without resources guarding, environmentally stable, relatively unresponsive to emotion and social competition while still being confident enough to not be threatened by an angry person.
It's important to understand the different types of barks that a dog may exhibit, including a prey bark and a defensive bark, and to condition the dog appropriately in order to ensure a healthy balance and prevent reactivity and aggression towards the wrong people.
Having a police dog with high prey drive can aid them in stressful situations and make their training more effective. This can better equip them for situations where they need to protect their handler and stop criminals.
A police officer discusses the danger of dog attacks during training and how preventative measures can prevent serious injury, but without it the potential for deadly attacks is very high.
The importance of dog bite pressure as a requirement for military, police, and personal protection dogs to incite prey drive and fire them up is discussed in this episode. Techniques for training these dogs to bite harder are also provided.
The use of dogs for law enforcement purposes is relatively rare and the risks associated with such operations are very minimal.
In the context of using dogs in combat, the question arises of whether or not they can discern innocence in civilians. While they are trained to only attack displays of aggression, it is unclear whether they have the ability to identify targets.
The speaker is discussing the impressive capabilities of military dogs and the tendency for handlers to measure their success based on the number of bites their dog has rather than the overall success of their team.
The length of a military dog's service can vary, but efforts can be made to rehabilitate them for civilian life and possibly even therapy work.
A former Navy Seal and Sirius-Certified dog trainer shares insights into the process of training dogs to join elite forces like seals, SF, and SWAT teams. The training process generally takes around five to six months and has seen almost 200 dogs join the teams in the last decade.
