    Crate Training Help

    Some GREAT advise from lizzybeth727. Size matters when i comes to crates. I would put in a divider to make it smaller and take out the pee pad. Start slow with the howling. put her in and ignore her for a bit when she stops take her out. And/or put her in and take her right out. Back...

    Possessive and growling.

    the NILIF CharlieDog mentions is a great method. Not sure you have to go as for as going out of the room, and you should never use the crate as a punishment. Simply make Buddy sit back a few steps from Nitro and hand Nitro the toy (or whatever) let him play for a minute or so while Buddy sits...

    Leash Behaviors

    I am only allowed to have my head just in front of my walker's knee. Otherwise we stop and I have to sit and be calm. That is if we are training. If we are on a casual walk I am given the "ok" to have a little leeway and sniff all those interesting smells. Just as long as I dont pull too far...

    Finding a Toy - Help?

    I love to pull the stuffing out of those things. But I am a little OCD about it so I am only allowed to play with them under supervision because sometimes I just cant help myself and try to eat their insides!

    Grooming products?

    It's so fluffy! Sorry, I can't resist. One of my favorite lines from a movie is "It's so Fluffy!" (Agnes from Despicable Me) and when I read the beginning of this thread it brought it right to mind. So I thought I would share.

    Lots of pee

    I understand your concern to be the number of times she peed in such a short interval of time. Most likely she just had a full bladder and didn't wake up in time to let you know she had to go out. Was interrupted on the way out the door. And sometimes with a full bladder as a puppy, there can...

    Let the questions begin: Crate training.

    Keep in mind that the crate should never be used as a punishment. It is a place of safe haven for your dog. It keeps those of us whom are a little mischievous from getting ourselves into trouble while you are away. It is like a den to us. Another thing to keep in mind is the size of the...

    Outside Dog Run/kennel?

    Those buildings posted above are great! When I was living up the the arctic north (Michigan) I had to stay outside when no one was home. I had a chain link run with a dog house at one end. It was insulated and had a 150 watt light bulb inside to keep it all warm and toasty for me in the...

    Sighthounds Galore!

    I love rabbit hunting. Although, when I first started I was on a long leash and broke free. That darn rabbit ran a circle around a tree and I got caught with my ODC and ran circles around the tree until my leash was wrapped tight! :doh: Ah well, lesson learned! The funny things you do as a pup!

    Are your dogs lickers?

    I don't like to lick unless there is some food particles for a tasty treat. Even when I give "kisses" I really just nuzzle my nose. I guess I am kind of a germ-o-phobe that way :) Now my friend Ashley on the other hand... she doesn't stop licking! I just don't understand the fascination.

    Hi, I am Max the Beagle

    Hi! I am new to this forum, and my name is Max the beagle. I have trained hard to behave well and I have watched my trainer help other dogs for years now. I was thinking that perhaps I might have something to add here & that this old dog might also be able to learn a new trick or 2. Can't...
