    Leash Training?? I have never leash trained before!

    I love the idea of a puppy or older dog to learn how to walk without the leash first. I train that... My pup is doing that now. But as for a collar and leash.... they are not used for above, not really, if you are a trainer. A colllar is only used for id purposes only, i.d. tags...

    How do you feel about "Assisted suicides"?

    Yes, you did start a good and interesting discussion. No worries here.... Everyone here comes from different backgrounds and beliefs, so I guess it is what you believe in your heart and mind. That is why I said you should decide early in life, heck, you can always change it. I trust my...

    How do you feel about "Assisted suicides"?

    That is why you plan ahead, no matter what your age. As for God and religion, that can be a whole other debate...a long one at that. For people that are that extreme, they won't even read this post, for others who also believe.. I thought I read somewhere that God was all forgiving. A good...

    Moderators

    I am not a mod here... (most of you know I hate rules) but just came back on recently. I, as a member, know/ or knew who the mods were. I think mods. should lead by example, regardless if the word "MODERATOR" shows up or not. Most people are going to say what they want anyway. I think as a...

    Leash Training?? I have never leash trained before!

    bubbatd: You KNOW we all love you here... But I do have to disagree, I believe a puppy should be shown how to walk on a leash as soon as possible. Now, I do know about the smaller breeds, and designer breeds coming out. There are also 50 million (lol) harness, collars and halters out on...

    prep for agility

    Sounds like you need to bring someone in that is accomplished in training. As for the distractions, "LEAVE IT" and then hand signal should do it. Watch Me should have been done at 10 weeks and after. I am the Queen of distractions, lol, since I had to train various animals in theme parks...

    My dog pissed on my gf TWICE in 10 mins

    Hey, that shows you care. Everyone can make mistakes, it's how we deal with them later, is what counts. You got a cute pup... I am also doing an "edit"... REALLY, that is cool, you flamed up for a bit, but took the resp. also. that takes character. I admire you for it. Take care, Amy

    Something I have yet to see on any forum...

    As some people know, I have been an animal trainer for a long time. This is not what I am speaking about here, just some experience. I have not been on this forum for a long time, only on the chat room. I do feel, however, that there is vast information to be learned from here. As for...

    Leash Training?? I have never leash trained before!

    Loose leash walking is very easy to correct, esp. in a puppy stage. Loose Leash Walking is defined: (by my terms,lol), you walking your dog/puppy with a 4 foot to 6 foot leash. The leash should be slack while walking, if the dog extends the leash, you become...a TREE. Take the handle of the...

    Home Prepared Dog Diets

    I was feeding Marley a good kibble, expensive... I am/have done a lot of research on the home cooked/human quality with some bones research... I have started it, and I am meeting with a nutritionist tomorrow. I would love an advice you have. I am done with a commercial pet foods, even...

    My dog pissed on my gf TWICE in 10 mins

    I could not even read the threads 2 through 4... I don't even know if his guy is still on here. I agreee about seeking medical advise first, the dog may be telling you something. Also, I believe he said the dog was 7 months old... if he had a child, that would be child abuse. Regardless...

    How do you feel about "Assisted suicides"?

    I believe the above also. I also think it is very important to speak your mind a head of time to one or two people you fully trust. This may sound bad, or not, but I have a father who did over 23 years, Special Forces, Green Beret... if anything he knows how to kill, in several different...

    Dogs & Chocolate & How Much is Deadly

    Being in the animal community, I have heard many stories.... I believe chocolate is bad for dogs in general. That is my opinion... I have, however, heard many more stories of dogs dying because of chocolate than not. I will share that I had a few people, a few "old timers" that didn't know any...
