Last week I was lucky enough to be on vacation in the Dominican Republic, where I spent my days soaking up the sun and reading books on the beach. The first book on my list was Cesar’s Rules by Cesar Millan. For his latest book the Dog Whisperer invited a handful of trainers to meet with him and show him their techniques and methods for working with dogs. The really cool thing about this is that Cesar chose people who use very different training...
have a dog, his name is Tuxcitto. Tuxcitto is a Border Collie who is always looking for the possibility of using its herds. It does not matter if the animals need or want livestock if they roam in the area of livestock, they parked. Tuxcitto is a very intelligent dog and it is very easy to train for most. But if you try to train a dog against their natural instincts, it is a battle. Tuxcitto and I agreed that if he does not want to run around harassing people and other animals, he gets a treat. The system runs on 95% of the time. But there is one...

Looking for information on how to use training dogs to stop a dog barking? If so, then the answer is quite simple. There are two ways to do so and ways of working both to stop any new dog beagles for older dogs. The easiest way is to do it yourself approach, but others have found success with the help of dog training to stop barking behavior in its tracks. The first step of this method of training dogs to stop barking dogs is to punish bad behavior. The animal will probably bark at any time of day and night, but in some cases, it can react in May...
As a dog behavior consultant and trainer I’ve been around all kinds of dogs. I’ve also spent countless hours in dog parks and doggie daycares interacting with every variety of breed, size and shape the canine world has to offer. All this pooch exposure has led me to form some interesting conclusions. The most obvious thing that jumps out at me time and time again is that little dogs have many more behavioral issues than their larger counterparts....

Traveling with a cat or dog loose in the car can result in accidents, runaway animals, and even death to pet and driver. Christina Selter, founder of pet safety group BarkBuckleUp in San Diego, says these disasters can be avoided by using special devices that keep pets safely restrained. The organization drew attention to the issue at a recent Volvo-sponsored exhibit at the Chicago Auto Show. Volvo, known for its safety efforts, offers factory-installed kennels for pets in its XC90 or V70 wagons, for instance. Other car companies are considering...
Keeping pets healthy and happy is what I try to do on a daily basis. Every day I am afforded opportunities to help or educate pet owners and their pets on natural pet care. It’s my calling in life so to speak. It’s my passion. I always first promote proactive prevention for our pets. If a pet is healthy, is fed well, has adequate exercise, proper leadership, is not exposed to unnecessary toxins and lives in a healthy environment, offering natural...

The Boxer is an amazing dog and is extremely playful, energetic and definitely a handful (in a good way of course). This breed if dog is extremely loyal and when a friendship is built it lasts forever. The boxer is very unique and not for everyone, if you’re a new owner of a boxer you have to be aware that they need a lot of attention and training. They are extremely intelligent dogs which can work to your advantage when it comes to training, but then again can be very disadvantageous as they know how to use their intelligence to get what they...
Watch any cartoon with a dog and you’ll learn that dogs come preloaded with two things: chasing cats and barking at the mailman. The cat thing we can chalk up to a run of the mill species rivalry, but why the mailman? After all, the mailman (and femailman) seems pretty nice - the only crime there’re guilty of is delivering us too many bills. So why do so many dogs go postal when the mailman makes his daily approach toward our house?The answer is...

But if Fran doesnt end up exhausted by the event, I can see her having a great time training this little thing to be a gun dog.As for Tasha - I dont think shell forget...

Its very unusual that nearly a month goes by without an update of whats been happening, but the truth is Ive been rather busy !
I usually work 7 day weeks which, although tiring, are very enjoyable and obviously by choice. The days are full, what with "sheep chasing" lessons, day courses and training my residential guests.
