I worked for a guy who trained his pit to respond to German commands.

Apparently its not that rare. And usually involves German/Russian because dogs respond to it better?? Or some poo poo like that was his reasoning.

I knew a dog (sheperd) who was a 'failed' German police dog. I didn't have to spend enough time around him to bother learning German commands. To be fair he was happy protecting a newish tiny dog in the house so I figured 'gently caress it' why trigger him. He's in the zone enough as it were. And he was a good loving dog anyway so why bother him?

Yeah I guess I just wouldn't want the dog to be confused by the hundreds of people yelling at their dog to come here, stop, etc. Plus I feel like the commands would hold more assertiveness since the dog wouldn't hear it 100 times when it's around other dogs

Eh.. I have heard so many different things its hard to know which is accurate.

At one point I had someone I generally trust on training knowledge tell me they don't actually understand words. But your voice, tone and gestures.

I honestly don't know what the truth is on it any more. Last time I trained a dog, it was my sister's lab and she had rocks for brains. She responded to me walking in the room and guessed what I wanted. Worked 50% of the time since the commands were either scritches/treats or "shut the gently caress up idiot". If I had something in my hand she kept barking, just walked up to me while doing so.

That's fair. I work doggie day care and the owner is a stickler for posting pics. I'd add a link but don't want to self dox.
Picture a large German Shepherd and a small Bichon Frise. It was a cute pair. Except when the Shepherd would try to gently caress the Bichon. I was slow to stop him because it was mostly physically impossible. A misdemeanor as opposed to a felony as I say at work.

My girlfriend does clicker training for service dogs and what they do basically is click and treat when the dog performs the action they're trying to achieve without any cues.

As the dog learns that the thing its doing is a good thing, then they add in visual cues, and then add in a word.

So no, your dog has no clue what you're saying and mostly doesn't care because they mostly communicate through body language. For them, they just know that the sound "Sit" from your mouth means put my butt on the ground because I'm doing the good thing that you want.

So my girlfriend's aunt's house has a gated driveway that you have to open to get out. Sadie decided to run off into the wild and around the neighborhood. We're watching the house for her aunt right now so it was my responsibility to go find her. There's a horse stable across the street. Sadie came back covered in horse poo poo. Guess who got to clean her up :buddy:

That night we performed the rite and opened the gate.
Halfway through, I went to fix us both a coke float.
By the time I got back, he'd gone insane.
Plus, he'd left the gate open and there was evil everywhere.
