81 00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:57,680 I sure hope so. 82 00:03:57,680 --> 00:03:58,680 Let's give it a shot. 83 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:00,680 Bling, bling, bling here. 84 00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:06,680 With her shiny new training collar, Cece is ready for lesson number one, healing. 85 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:11,680 So the idea with the walk is you want the dog paying attention to you, not everything else around you. 86 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,680 If you think about, like, how a pack travels, there's one pack leader, 87 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,680 and the rest of the dogs are behind it just following naturally and easily. 88 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,680 And obviously right now she's trying to be that pack leader. 89 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:24,680 Beverly's theory about dog training is to let them know you're the pack leader. 90 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:31,680 So it's all about conditioning the dog both positively and negatively in ways that the pack leader would do. 91 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:34,680 You give them affection when they do right, you give them a scruff on the neck, 92 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:36,680 just like the pack leader would do when they do wrong. 93 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:41,680 And as long as you repeatedly do that, and you do that exactly when they're doing stuff right, 94 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:45,680 and exactly when they're doing stuff wrong, they become much more manageable, 95 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:47,680 because they all want to be part of a team. 96 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:49,680 That's the theory. 97 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:52,680 And for all dog Cece, it seems to be working. 98 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:57,680 Already she's surprisingly well healed, which begs the question, 99 00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:00,680 How old is old when it comes to dogs? 100 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:03,680 Well, how old is old when it comes to people? 101 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:05,680 It's pretty subjective. 102 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:09,680 However, the best estimates that the vet has is that Bobo and Cece were born about seven years ago, 103 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:15,680 which in human terms for their size makes them approximately 50 years old. 104 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:17,680 That didn't be about in the butters on for our test. 105 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:19,680 Indeed. 106 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:24,680 Outside and school starting for old dogs Jamie and Bobo. 107 00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:31,680 And headteach Jean Donaldson from the SPCA confirms we're starting from scratch. 108 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:33,680 Bobo, can you sit? 109 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:35,680 He probably has never been taught. 110 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:39,680 He's looking at it, he may as well be saying it in Swahili as no clue. 111 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:42,680 Undaunted, Jamie and Jean get classes started. 112 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:47,680 And at this dog school, the curriculum is slightly different. 113 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:53,680 Jean's technique is influenced by Pavlob, Skinner, even Darwin. 114 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:57,680 We could talk about it in terms of operant conditioning and other things, 115 00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:02,680 but it boils down to that if the dog's behavior is good, you reward it. 116 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:04,680 If it's bad, you ignore it. 117 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:10,680 So I've got leverage in my hand, and at the moment, he's not going to give me a full down, 118 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:12,680 but I've got to pay some things. 119 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:14,680 It's called shaping by successive approximations. 120 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:19,680 I'm waiting for that right front leg as soon as he crosses it, I'm going to pay him. 121 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:23,680 Waiting for the leg, there's the leg. 122 00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:29,680 With Bobo getting down and Cece also responding well to the first day's lessons, 123 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,680 doesn't that mean this myth is already busted? 124 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:34,680 I think the myth is looking pretty bad at this point. 125 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:39,680 The real test will come, I think, with the handshake. 126 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:46,680 I think all the other stuff, heal, sit, stay, those are your pack commands. 127 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:50,680 You know, just getting the dog to understand your words for what it naturally wants to do. 128 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:52,680 But shaking hands, that doesn't happen in the wild. 129 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,680 I think that's really going to be where the rubber meets the road 130 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,680 and whether or not these dogs can learn a real trick. 131 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:10,680 Our next myth could get you ripped limb from limb. 132 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:12,680 Cool!

He's vicious. 180 00:10:05,680 --> 00:10:09,680 Yeah, that dog was biting with over 550 pounds of pressure. 181 00:10:09,680 --> 00:10:11,680 Yeah, I wouldn't want that biting on my leg. 182 00:10:11,680 --> 00:10:14,680 So what kind of mythical techniques do we have to get past him? 183 00:10:14,680 --> 00:10:16,680 We have distracting them with a big juicy steak. 184 00:10:16,680 --> 00:10:20,680 We have acting aggressive, acting submissive. 185 00:10:20,680 --> 00:10:22,680 We also have wolf urine. 186 00:10:22,680 --> 00:10:25,680 We have scent of a lactating bitch. 187 00:10:25,680 --> 00:10:26,680 What? 188 00:10:26,680 --> 00:10:28,680 It's supposed to calm them down. 189 00:10:28,680 --> 00:10:33,680 We also have urine from a bitch in heat, which is obviously supposed to distract them. 190 00:10:33,680 --> 00:10:35,680 Well, he is a male dog. 191 00:10:35,680 --> 00:10:40,680 Well, we can't forget the enclosure that we're supposed to build to do our experiments. 192 00:10:40,680 --> 00:10:41,680 Well, let's keep that simple. 193 00:10:41,680 --> 00:10:43,680 We'll close off an area with the chain link fence. 194 00:10:43,680 --> 00:10:51,680 We'll put a safe in the middle, put treasure in it, and then we'll try our different techniques to see if we can get to the safe, get the treasure, and get out safely. 195 00:10:51,680 --> 00:10:54,680 Coming right up, it's the moment of truth for our old dogs. 196 00:10:54,680 --> 00:10:55,680 Sit. 197 00:10:55,680 --> 00:10:56,680 Good girl. 198 00:10:56,680 --> 00:11:00,680 And then Adam turns Convict to beat the bloodhound. 199 00:11:00,680 --> 00:11:02,680 It's a dog eat Convict world out there. 200 00:11:12,680 --> 00:11:18,680 Carrie, Grant and Tori are attempting to beat E1, the well-trained guard dog. 201 00:11:18,680 --> 00:11:28,680 They're going to test several techniques to sneak past the four-legged guardian, get into the safe in the center of the compound, and then escape safely with the loot. 202 00:11:28,680 --> 00:11:32,680 The first tactic I'm going to utilize is diversion. 203 00:11:32,680 --> 00:11:33,680 I've got some stakes. 204 00:11:33,680 --> 00:11:37,680 I'm going to chuck it in one set of the yard, and then I'm going to try to make a run for it. 205 00:11:37,680 --> 00:11:41,680 I see, and that's supposed to draw the dog's attention away from you. 206 00:11:41,680 --> 00:11:43,680 It always works in the cartoons. 207 00:11:43,680 --> 00:11:44,680 Good luck with that. 208 00:11:45,680 --> 00:11:50,680 Carrie gets into the dog-proof safety suit and then gives it a test run. 209 00:11:55,680 --> 00:12:01,680 With Carrie about as mobile as a dog's chew toy, she adapts her heist plan. 210 00:12:01,680 --> 00:12:03,680 I'm not going to be able to throw anything with this. 211 00:12:03,680 --> 00:12:05,680 I'm going to get one of the boys to go over the corner and throw it. 212 00:12:05,680 --> 00:12:06,680 That's not cheating. 213 00:12:06,680 --> 00:12:08,680 Everybody's got a partner in crime. 214 00:12:09,680 --> 00:12:14,680 Tori gets the plan underway by interesting E1 in his meaty treat. 215 00:12:14,680 --> 00:12:16,680 Oh, look, he likes. 216 00:12:16,680 --> 00:12:17,680 Oh, you're looking at him. 217 00:12:17,680 --> 00:12:18,680 He likes, oh, you like these. 218 00:12:18,680 --> 00:12:20,680 You like the meat. 219 00:12:21,680 --> 00:12:23,680 I think you guys should probably go for it now, no? 220 00:12:27,680 --> 00:12:33,680 Tori's tasty T-bone taunting has bought Carrie enough time to get to the safe. 221 00:12:38,680 --> 00:12:44,680 But then Carrie's accomplice turns nasty as Tori throws the steak into the compound. 222 00:12:44,680 --> 00:12:46,680 Not at me! Not at me! 223 00:12:46,680 --> 00:12:52,680 It's a poor throw, but E1 stays focused on the meat and starts to chow down as Carrie 224 00:12:52,680 --> 00:12:56,680 heads for an unofficial exit on the far side of the compound. 225 00:12:56,680 --> 00:12:57,680 But it's locked. 226 00:12:57,680 --> 00:12:59,680 Hurry, he's eating the meat. 227 00:12:59,680 --> 00:13:04,680 Meanwhile, E1 has finished the first course and goes back to Tori for more. 228 00:13:04,680 --> 00:13:09,680 But when Tori doesn't have another steak ready, E1 goes to work. 229 00:13:22,680 --> 00:13:23,680 Well, kinda. 230 00:13:23,680 --> 00:13:29,680 The delicious diversion did distract E1 long enough to get to the safe and secure the loot. 231 00:13:29,680 --> 00:13:33,680 But poor planning meant that Carrie ended up as the main course. 232 00:13:33,680 --> 00:13:35,680 But the necklace is somewhere inside the suit. 233 00:13:35,680 --> 00:13:38,680 I swear it's in here. I grabbed it. 234 00:13:38,680 --> 00:13:42,680 So it's plausible to distract a guard dog with tasty treats. 235 00:13:42,680 --> 00:13:46,680 But without that suit, Carrie would have been breakfast. 236 00:13:46,680 --> 00:13:47,680 Well done. 237 00:13:47,680 --> 00:13:54,680 Next up, Grant and Tori are tackling two myths which an animal behaviorist and fan of the show suggested. 238 00:13:55,680 --> 00:14:04,680 And they're both based on the concept that by using body language, you can persuade the dog to leave you alone. 239 00:14:04,680 --> 00:14:12,680 First into the ring is Grant, and the theory is E1 will take Grant's submissive posture as proof he's not a threat. 240 00:14:12,680 --> 00:14:15,680 Oh my god, this is not working, this is not working, this is not working! 241 00:14:15,680 --> 00:14:18,680 I don't think it's working. 242 00:14:18,680 --> 00:14:20,680 But it doesn't work. 243 00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:25,680 Next, Tori attempts to take Alpha Dog status by getting aggressive. 244 00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:32,680 But his top dog impression simply results in him being the dog's lunch. 245 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:38,680 With the score Mythbusters 1, Guard Dog 2, it's back to Adam and Jamie. 246 00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:44,680 So how old is the phrase you can't teach an old dog new tricks? 247 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:53,680 Well, it's pretty old. It originated from some guy named Fitz Herbert who wrote a paper on animal husbandry in 1523. 248 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:54,680 That's it? 249 00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:55,680 Yeah. 250 00:14:55,680 --> 00:15:05,680 Alright, the dogger must learn it when he is a well-be, or else it will not be, for it is hard to make an old dog to stoop. 251 00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:08,680 Like I said, you can't teach an old dog new tricks. 252 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:14,680 It's an age-old adage and the Mythbusters can't resist putting it to the test. 253 00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:18,680 On day one, the training went so well, the myth looked busted. 254 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:19,680 Sit. 255 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:21,680 Good girl. 256 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:26,680 But in today's session, without pack leaders Beverly and Jean to show them who's boss, 257 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:28,680 Cici, sit. 258 00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:34,680 Well, the dog's personalities are proving obstructive. 259 00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:36,680 We're a little too excited this morning. 260 00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:38,680 Bubbles of brat. 261 00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:40,680 First of all, I don't think he's as smart as Cici. 262 00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:41,680 I can see it in his eyes. 263 00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:47,680 He's a little like, hey, you cut that with a shot of him, you'll see it looks the same. 264 00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:49,680 Cici is a very shy dog. 265 00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:56,680 She is submissive, used to being submissive, and it's very easy for her to just shut down entirely. 266 00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:57,680 Oh. 267 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:02,680 Clearly, Adam and Jamie need help from the professionals. 268 00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:06,680 What I'm seeing here that might be happening is she might be a little more intimidated by you. 269 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:10,680 A lot of times a dog, especially she's a female dog, she may be more intimidated by males, 270 00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:15,680 either just by nature or because whatever men she's been with in her life have been a little rough on her, 271 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:19,680 or firm with her, such that she's feeling that way. 272 00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:26,680 But a session or two with confidence inspiring Beverly and Timid Cici is responding not only to the expert. 273 00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:27,680 I'm going to sit. 274 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:28,680 Good baby. 275 00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:29,680 Good girl. 276 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:31,680 She's listening to Adam. 277 00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:32,680 Down. 278 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:33,680 There you go. 279 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:34,680 Good down. 280 00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:35,680 Good girl. 281 00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:36,680 Good down. 282 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:37,680 Now she's really engaging. 283 00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:38,680 This is great. 284 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:44,680 Outside, Gene has Bobo the brat focused, and he's flying through all his lessons. 285 00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:46,680 And Jamie's not doing so bad either. 286 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:47,680 Nice job. 287 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:52,680 I tell you, I've seen a million genius dogs go nowhere because of crappy training. 288 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:58,680 With four days of training complete, our elderly Alaskan Malamutes have come a long way. 289 00:16:58,680 --> 00:16:59,680 Okay. 290 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:00,680 Yes, I can give them a... 291 00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:01,680 Good boy. 292 00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:02,680 Good boy. 293 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:03,680 Good boy. 294 00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:04,680 Good boy. 295 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:05,680 Good boy. 296 00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:09,680 But the proof will come in the final exam, when Adam and Cici go head to head with Jamie 297 00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:12,680 and Bobo in a show dog showdown. 298 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:17,680 Bobo, you've got to behave or we're going to make you into a coat. 299 00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:27,680 Adam and Jamie are competing in the Mythbusters Best in Show dog trial. 300 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:35,680 They've gone head to head to see whether it's really impossible to teach an old dog new tricks. 301 00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:36,680 This is their final exam. 302 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:39,680 We have set up a little dog show place here. 303 00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:40,680 We have a scorecard. 304 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:42,680 We have five tricks that we've taught them. 305 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:44,680 I'm going to see how well we do. 306 00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:50,680 With Myth Turn Jess in position as judge and jury, everyone and every dog is ready. 307 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:54,680 All right, everybody, and welcome to the old dog new trick final exam. 308 00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:56,680 Adam and Cici, you're up first. 309 00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:58,680 Let's start with the heel. 310 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:00,680 Good girl. 311 00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:07,680 With Cici in good position alongside Adam and not pulling on the lead, judge Jess hands out full marks. 312 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:09,680 Nice work, Adam. 313 00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:12,680 And that's the story of Cici's day. 314 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:13,680 Sit. 315 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:15,680 Good girl. 316 00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:18,680 She obediently follows all of Adam's commands. 317 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:20,680 Down. 318 00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:22,680 Good down. 319 00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:23,680 Good down. 320 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:24,680 Back up. 321 00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:25,680 Okay, shake. 322 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:26,680 Good shake. 323 00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:27,680 Very good. 324 00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:31,680 Proving that in just one week, stay. 325 00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:34,680 She's learned all five of the new tricks. 326 00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:36,680 Okay, I need it. 327 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:38,680 Good girl. 328 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:40,680 Very good girl. 329 00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:42,680 The pressure's on. 330 00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:43,680 Jamie hates losing. 331 00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:47,680 He'll be determined to match Adam's faultless performance. 332 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:48,680 Down. 333 00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:49,680 Down. 334 00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:52,680 Good shake. 335 00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:53,680 Good boy. 336 00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:58,680 Bobo succeeds in all of the tasks to judge Jess's satisfaction. 337 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:00,680 Bobo, stay. 338 00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:01,680 Stay. 339 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:03,680 Until the stay. 340 00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:06,680 Maybe Jamie's fur coat threat backfired. 341 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:09,680 You stay there. 342 00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:18,680 Bobo wouldn't hold for the required 20 seconds, but judge Jess has generously given him a half point for his efforts. 343 00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:25,680 9.5 out of 10 ain't bad at all, so it seems to me that you can in fact teach an old dog new tricks. 344 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:26,680 I agree. 345 00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:27,680 This one's totally busted. 346 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:32,680 And one of the more cuddly myths we've ever done. 347 00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:39,680 With old dogs busted, Adam and Jamie have sniffed out another mutt myth. 348 00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:44,680 So can you clearly communicate what clever canine conundrum you're currently concocting? 349 00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:45,680 What? 350 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:47,680 What's the myth? 351 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:48,680 Bloodhounds. 352 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:49,680 What about them? 353 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:52,680 We're going to test whether you can trick bloodhounds like they show in the movies. 354 00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:54,680 You want to get to play

myth. 360 00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:17,680 Flick on a fugitive film and you'll likely see bloodhounds being baffled with ease. 361 00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:19,680 But is this really true? 362 00:20:19,680

run him through the paces of things we'd seen him get tricked by in the movies. 365 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:31,680 Backtracking, running in a river, changing your scent? 366 00:20:31,680 -->
