Step-by-Step Dog Obedience Training And Tips For Your Pet Dog

Archives for November, 2006

Never you blame the dog

Yes, unless you know the secrets for giving your dog the correct dog training, it will be so confused and problematic to the end. You must know that a dog wants to please at all times, yet it has to be taught how to behave in the home and out of the home. And my friend it is your responsibility, not the dog's to provide the required training. If you do not train your dog and it messes up your home and your visitors, never you blame the dog.

Dog Training Is Work Never Finished!

Just when I think I’ve got my dog Tuxcitto in control he gives
me a demonstration that this well may be a life long pursuit.
Tuxcitto is a Border Collie that has an uncanny learning
capability. Not from my dog training skills but from
observation. He watches everything that goes on around him.

And you never know when he’s going to add one and one to get
two. Tuxcitto excels in obedience training when in sight or
when his master is around. All I have to do is show him what I
want him to do and then repeat it for a few days and he nails
it after that. His ability to learn has always been obvious
from the first day we brought him home.

But he also learns on his own. We have a good-sized front and
back yard. And both dogs (I have an older female dog named
Spoofy) know that they can do anything they want as long as
it’s in our yard. We live in a small community and have lots of
neighbors with dogs. From time to time one of them comes over
for a visit.

No problem there except the temptation for our dogs to go run
with the visiting dogs is too much to handle sometimes. Since
most neighbors are dog owners this is not a problem. Except
that my dogs are supposed to stay in my yard. That’s the rule.
But we all know rules are made to be broken.

So one day a friend’s dog comes over to play and Tuxcitto
follows him back to his yard. I happen to see this and go out
and call Tuxcitto to come home. Tuxcitto comes back and
everything is fine. I look back out a few minutes later and no
Tuxcitto. So this time I call him home and bring him into the
house.

If he can’t follow the rules, inside he goes. I go about my
daily tasks and forget about it. Some time later I glance out
the window and to my surprise, there’s Tuxcitto out in the
front yard. And along with him are our two inside cats. Both
these cats stay inside since they are both scared of their own
shadows.

After a quick look around, I see that the back bedroom sliding
glass door is open. Great, Tuxcitto has learned how to open the
sliding glass door. This is not a good thing since we have
several around our house. And although it’s no big deal for
Tuxcitto to get out, the cats are a whole different issue. So I
close the sliding glass door and go round up the animals and
bring them inside.

Knowing that Tuxcitto will gladly give another demonstration of
his new trick, I walk out another door to the backyard and wait.
Within minutes I see him use his paws on the end of the door and
pull it open. It took him about 5 seconds. Did I mention that he
all ready knows how to open doors with doorknobs? He learned
that trick in his second week at the house.

Now I have a challenge in that it’s much easier to teach
Tuxcitto how to do something rather than teach him not to do
something. So now I had to figure out a way to teach Tuxcitto
not to open the door. One way that I’ve had some good success
with is to demonstrate a certain result that he doesn’t like
when he fails to follow my commands.

So I started with showing him the door, then telling him no.
Tuxcitto understands no, so I believe he understood that the
door was not something he was to go near in the future. But
that doesn’t always work when I’m not present to reinforce the
command.

So I then locked the door and both Tuxcitto and I went back to
the other part of the house. I don’t know if he went back and
tried to open the door that day but I believe he might have
knowing his nature. A few days went by and I decided to test
his memory.

I work out of a home office so the dogs and the cats generally
follow me around all day. If I’m in the office they usually
come in and lay down near me. If I go to the kitchen, or
anywhere else, they follow me. So I set up the test by going
back into the back bedroom and unlocking the door and going out
into the back yard.

I came back in and did not lock the sliding glass door. I then
went back to my office, with all in tow. So now I keep a close
eye on Tuxcitto to see if he would make his move. I’ve made the
mistake before of under estimating his intelligence and I’m not
going there again.

Sure enough, after a little while he got up and looked at me,
and I ignored him, and he sauntered off. As soon as he went
down the back hall I knew where he was going. I quickly slipped
out another door and went to stand out of sight but close to the
outside of the back bedroom sliding door.

I heard him start trying to slide the door back and walked up
close enough to be in direct sight when he came out the door.
As soon as the door opened I said his name and then told him no
in a very stern manner. He froze, caught in the act. I came in
through the door and told him no again and sent him to his
couch. When he does something he’s not supposed to he gets sent
to his couch, which is leather I might add so it’s not too harsh
a punishment.

We went through this ritual about 3 more times before he
figured out that it was a trap. I don’t care if he doesn’t open
the door because I told him no or because he thinks I’m waiting
outside to catch him. Either way he understands that you don’t
go open that sliding glass door.

From time to time I do catch him looking or even walking up to
the sliding glass door but he doesn’t try to open it. The crazy
thing about this whole deal is he can go outside anytime he
wants. All he needs to do is go sit by the front door. I let
the dogs out many times each day, whenever they want.

Now if I could just get Tuxcitto to resist the temptation to go
out of the yard I would be overjoyed. But I know that that may
be too much for his personality to handle so I cut him some
slack. After all we all have our weak spots and his are few.

Your dog has a mouth just like anyone else, so give it the same oral hygience care as your would give you child. If you don't, it will develop all sorts of oral diseases and you won't like it, especially if your dog kisses you unawares. Look after your dog's oral hygiene and both of you will be happy together.

Maintaining Your Dogs Teeth And Oral Health

The most common oral condition suffered by dogs is periodontal
disease. This disease affects the tissues that surround and
support the teeth. Plaque is the usual cause of periodontal
disease. It gradually covers the teeth, quickly hardening into
tartar.

The bacteria in plaque irritate the gums, causing them to
swell. This swelling is called gingivitis. Each day the gums
grow more inflamed, producing other damaging bacteria, causing
the gums to recede. Over time the tooth becomes loose, followed
by tooth loss.

Aside from being very painful, and the possible loss of teeth,
periodontal disease can become a reservoir of infection and
bacteria to the blood, and from the bloodstream, to the vital
organs, such as heart, kidneys, lungs, and liver. Common
symptoms of periodontal disease are consistently bad breath,
yellow to brown masks on the teeth, reddened gums and exposed
tooth roots, reluctance to eat, drooling, difficulty in
chewing, and mouth pain, usually shown by pawing at the mouth,
or rubbing his face against the ground.

All dogs are at risk, especially in dogs with small mouths,
short muzzles and flat faces, as well as senior dogs. Tooth
brushing on a regular basis can minimize plaque buildup, and
regular visits to the vet can identify any hidden damage to the
teeth and gums before it gets out of hand.

Treatment can range from tooth brushing, descaling, usually
carried out by the vet with the patient under a general
anesthetic, to advanced dental-surgery techniques. Early
detection is the best treatment of all. Controlling your dog’s
diet can have a big impact on his teeth. Dogs who are fed
mostly soft foods suffer more periodontal disease than those
who must chew.

Help your dog maintain his good health by frequent visits to
the vet, regular tooth brushing, maintaining a healthy diet,
and occasionally giving him a chew toy or bone. The benefits
will last a lifetime.

Your Dog And Your Furniture



Some dog owners believe that a dog is a dog, and that his place
is on the floor exclusively. Some feel that he is a member of
the family, and that he should be allowed up on chairs or sofas
if he feels like it. And there are attitudes in between that may
dictate permission for him to get up on one "favorite chair."
Generally the split is between country and city, with country
dogs being relegated to the floor and city dogs having the run
of the place.

If he is going to be strictly a floor dog, then he should never
be allowed up on any piece of furniture, right from the start.
Being up on the couch with you or solo hold little distinction
for him and it will only confuse him later if you deny him the
privilege. When he is little, he won't be able to negotiate the
height, so there is no problem with him climbing up.

As he grows and investigates, he will try to climb up just to
see what is there. Push him off gently and tell him "no" a few
times and he will get the idea. Later he may try to occupy it
while you are out of the house. An easy solution to train him
is a few light mousetraps covered with a sheet or newspaper set
near the back of the cushion. The trap can't hurt him and the
snapping noise will solve the problem.

If you decide that he is going to be a full member of the
household with all privileges, the problems are only those of
dirt and reactions. As for dirt, he should be trained to wait
at the door for a quick cleaning with an old rag after he has
been out of doors. By the time he is old enough to climb onto
chairs easily he will be old enough to have learned the "sit
and stay" and there ends the problem.

As far as reactions go, this is really something between you
and your friends. Somewhat fastidious friends who come to visit
may find dogs on furniture disagreeable, particularly if the dog
has to be shooed off of the chair they are about to sit in. If
he is a chair sitter in your house, he may try to be one when
he goes visiting with you. So set up a rigid rule for him –
okay at home, forbidden elsewhere, and don't make exceptions
and he won't be likely to be confused.

How A Dog Helps You Lose Weight

If you are one of those people that find it hard to motivate
yourself to exercise like you should, enlist the help of your
furry four legged friend, your dog.

Dogs love to go for walks. Even if you are not feeling
motivated and up to a daily walk, your dog is still more than
happy to follow you around with those puppy dog eyes waiting
for you to give in and go.

At our dog's last vet visit, we were told our dog needed to
lose a few pounds and were asked about how much exercise she
got. Although we live in the country on several acres of land
where our dog has the freedom to romp and play at will; our vet
pointed out it's not the same as giving her daily exercise like
a walk or run would. And, he only half-jokingly pointed out as
he patted my husband's found stomach, it a daily walk with the
dog wouldn't do my husband any harm either.

So a few month's ago the daily walks with our dog and my
husband started. I go along on the walks but I don't actually
hold the leash because our dog doesn't really walk, she pulls
on the leash like an Alaskan sled dog because she wants to go
faster and smell more things. I have a hard time controlling
the dog when she's in the mood to pull on the leash like that,
which is most of the time and she's not a huge dog, she weighs
less than 50 pounds but she's strong enough to nearly pull my
husband off his feet if he's not paying attention when she sees
a rabbit or squirrel that she thinks needs to be chased.

At first the walks were only a mile in duration. Now my husband
and dog, her name is Montana, walk three to four miles a day,
walking for about 45 minutes to 1 hour. There are days my
husband does not feel like going for a walk. But, Montana knows
the routine at our house. After my husband walks in the door at
night and has eaten she knows it is time for a walk. That's
when Montana starts to act like she glued to my husband. She
follows him around the house, dancing around him, licking his
hand when she can, wagging her tail, and looking at him in that
happy "we are going for a walk now aren't we" way.

Even on the nights he has looked at her and said "Montana, I
don't feel like going for a walk tonight," the dog just tilts
her head as if to say "But we have to go." Now that the dog is
used to the routine of walking, my husband never lasts more
than 10 minutes after saying he doesn't want to walk. He gives
in and goes because he can tell how much Montana wants to go
because like any dog worth its furry coat, she doesn't give in.
She just keeps waiting and being excited about that walk and
stays right next to my husband as a reminder that he needs to
take her. Now, even if it's raining (or snowing) they go for a
walk.

They have only missed a few nights and that was because it was
storming with lightning. On those nights my husband rewarded
the dog by playing a game where he chased the dog (yes, he
chased her around the house much to her delight), and played a
long game of tug of war with her to tire her out and make her
not miss her walk too much.

Has all that walking helped? It sure has. When our dog got her
shots last week she had lost two pounds. My husband has lost
nearly 10 pounds over the last three months by going on the
daily walks. He hasn't made any modifications to his diet or
added any other exercise. Just the walking itself has resulted
in the weight loss for him.

I'm not advocating that you get a dog just to help you exercise
every day. But if already have a dog, get up off that couch and
take him or her for a walk every day. It will be good for both
of you. And, if you have been wanting to get a dog anyway and
are ready for the commitment of caring for a dog and giving it
the exercise it needs, then visit your local pound and talk to
them about adopting a dog who needs a loving home.

How to Successfully Housebreak Your Dog

The most instant anxiety of fresh dog owners is that of housebreaking the pet. In order to achieve this task, the necessary principle that the owner must distinguish is that it
is at all times the wish of the dog to satisfy its master. Nothing can give the dog better delight than to recognize that its actions have met with endorsement; nothing can cause the dog bigger unhappiness than to know that its deeds have called forth dissatisfaction.

When the dog does its functions right, it should instantly be rewarded by a lot of charming words or even with an indulgence. When the dog does its functions wrongly , it should be made to understand, quickly in a deep, unyielding and prevailing voice -- but not essentially noisy -- and with no hesitant language that it has done the wrong thing, make it understand what it has done wrong.

It ought to also be understood that your language of approval or disapproval have to be made at once after the dog does or is about to do what is expected of it. If there is a interruption of even a moment, your dog simply will not relate the commendation or reprimand with its expected functions, and will be at a total loss to appreciate the good or bad outbursts on your part. In any case, you must be unbendingly regular in rewards and punishments in the housebreaking routine.

Dog Kennesl: More Than A Home For Your Dopg

Dog kennels can be really handy for many pet owners as they
provide a safe haven for your pampered pooch. There are many
reasons why pet owners decide to have a kennel for their dog
and these include:

* If the house isn’t big enough to keep a dog in but the owner
has a big garden

Sometimes people want a dog but their house just isn’t big
enough to keep one in. If they have a big enough garden, a dog
kennel can be a really good idea.

* To keep the dog in whilst strangers visit the home

Not all dogs are friendly, and even if they are they can be
unpredictable around strangers. This means that a dog kennel
can come in really handy if repairs ever have to be done to
your home and a professional has to visit the house.

* To keep the dog in at night

Dogs can sometimes play up at night and so it is sometimes
better to keep them in a kennel. That way a dog can whine, mark
it’s territory, and go to the toilet whenever it wants to,
depending on whether the kennel has a run attached to it or
not. Some people just prefer to keep their dog in a kennel
overnight, because they don’t want to risk the dog misbehaving
whilst they are not there to supervise them.

* To leave the dog in whilst the owners are away

If a dog owner wants to go out during the day and they do not
want to take their dog with them, but they also don’t want to
leave it alone in the house, a dog kennel may be the perfect
answer. They provide a secure, safe place for the dog and the
owners mind is at ease until they get back home.

Finding the Right One for Your Dog

Whilst kennels can and do make good temporary or permanent
homes for your dog, you have to make sure that you provide the
dog with plenty of space within the kennel. The best ones to
invest in are ones with runs attached to them and generally the
rule is always ‘the bigger the better’.

Obviously you would not expect your dog to live in something
that was uncomfortable for them to be in. For example, you
would not put a Saint Bernard in a kennel that was designed for
a Chihuahua. It simply wouldn’t be kind to the animal and it
more than likely wouldn’t fit in it. So always provide the dog
with the right sized kennel and ask an expert if you need to!

Overall, a kennel can be a great asset to all dog owners
providing that they are the right size and that they get plenty
of exercise out of the kennel.

Drink your way to better health with a Water Ionizer

• Do you want to look and feel younger?
• Do you want to lose weight or detoxify your body?
• Do you have digestive problems or suffer from chronic
sickness?

If you answer yes to any of these questions, you must read this
article.


Our bodies are made up of 70% water; it is an essential
nutrient for our body. Water is needed for virtually all body
processes, from digestion to elimination. Water is involved in
metabolism, circulation and detoxification. Your body needs
water.

Alkaline Water - The Healthiest Water in the World!

Not all water is created equal and because water is vital to
our bodies and for our health, we recommend drinking the best
water available. Typically bottled and filtered water is better
than drinking tap water. Distilled water is not recommended
because everything has been taken out of it – including the
minerals. It is essentially dead water because it has no life
in it.

The best water for your health is Alkaline Water. A water
ionizer takes regular tap water and purifies and alkalizes it
to create Alkaline Water. Before we explain the many health
benefits of a water ionizer and the “miracle” water it creates,
let’s first explain the concept of alkaline water and how it
affects our body.

Better Health with a Water Ionizer

Regardless if you eat an apple or a veggie casserole, all food
generates waste. This waste is then removed from our body
through our skin and when we eliminate. The problem is that
many times our body can not get rid of all the waste it
produces. This is due to several things including our dietary
habits, stress, and our inability to properly digest our food.
This acid waste builds up in our systems and show up in the
form of i.e. cholesterol, kidney stones and arterial plaque. It
also causes premature aging and disease. To help our bodies get
rid of these wastes its imperative to decrease our intake of
acidic foods such as coffee, alcohol, soft drinks and sugar and
increase our consumption of alkaline foods like fresh fruits and
vegetables, green drinks and alkaline water.

The pH scale measures the acidity or alkalinity of a substance.
The scale ranges from 0 (pure acid) to 14 (pure alkaline) with 7
being neutral. In our blood we have substances which aid in
stabilizing our blood pH called alkaline reserves or buffers.
The blood pH must remain at a constant rate of 7.36. If the
blood becomes too acidic the alkaline reserves will immediately
raise the pH in order to maintain the blood pH at 7.36. These
alkaline reserves consist of bicarbonates and we need these
bicarbonates to get rid of the acid waste our body produces. If
we don’t have a sufficient amount of bicarbonates in our blood
our health will be compromised and we won’t be able to get rid
of the acid waste from our body resulting in cholesterol,
premature aging, kidney stones, etc..

Why do you need a Water Ionizer?

A Water Ionizer converts tap water to strong alkaline water
with a high pH. By using a water ionizer and drinking alkaline
water, you will increase the amount of bicarbonates which help
our bodies get rid of acidic waste.

Alkaline water is more easily absorbed into the body tissues
because it has smaller water clusters, with only 5-6 molecules
and is in a hexagonal shape. Regular tap water has about 10-13
molecules with an irregular shape, making it more difficult for
the body to absorb. As a result, alkaline water from a water
ionizer is 6 times more hydrating than regular water, offering
improved detoxification and health benefits.

Alkaline Water will also increase your energy. It is rich in
oxygen and will increase the amount of oxygen in the blood.
This additional oxygen has antioxidant properties and helps to
neutralize free radicals.

Water Ionizers are proven to treat fungal disease, skin
conditions like eczema, psoriasis, rashes, and acne. A water
ionizer can help high blood pressure, burns, wounds, blisters,
insect bites, cold sores, gallstones, kidney stones, gout, and
dandruff. Ionized, alkaline water helps treat conditions such
as osteoporosis, arthritis, headaches, muscle pain and relief
from the effects of cancer treatment.

What is a Water Ionizer and how does it Work?

A water ionizer is a small appliance that typically sits on
your counter, connected to your kitchen faucet. A special
attachment redirects tap water from the faucet to the water
ionizer. As the water moves through the water ionizer it is
filtered through the activated charcoal. From there it passes
into a chamber equipped with platinum coated titanium
electrodes. This is where electrolysis takes place - the most
important part of the process. During this process the water
ionizer splits the water into 2 flows, alkaline water and
acidic water, both offering incredible health benefits. The
alkaline water comes out of the faucet in the sink - ready to
drink! A separate hose coming from the water ionizer sits in
the sink releases acidic (oxidized) water. This acidic water is
excellent for sterilizing, washing hands, treating minor wounds
and burns and insect bits. It destroys over 99% of bacteria,
including E-Coli.

A water ionizer turns ordinary tap water into strong alkaline
water with a high pH. It is a powerful antioxidant with
antiaging properties and help to treat disease and many health
problems. One of the best things you can do for your health is
use a water ionizer and drink more water. After all, nothing is
more important than your health.

Bringing That Sweetest Little 'puppy' Home


The cutest dog you must have seen is not of any certain breed
and if you think hard enough you'll find that the cutest and
prettiest of dogs are not actually dogs; they are puppies.

There is nothing quite as cut as a little doggy. He jumps
around like a furry tennis ball. Energetic, bubbly and happy,
it ever seems so pleased, so unbothered and so unperturbed by
the worries of life and living. A ball of happy innocence. What
else do you need to relax after a hectic day of work. No massage
in the world can relax you as completely as the very sight of
little doggy. And if you have kids, nothing like it. They make
the best picture together- little ones playing together.

So far as training is concerned, puppies are best pupils
because they learn quickly and without their personal
prejudices. Now if you are ready to get a puppy for yourself
you may rush to the nearby pet store to check if they have
anything that catches your fancy. It is best to bring in a
puppy in the morning so that it gets enough time to get used to
its surroundings before it's bedtime.

Do not leave the puppy alone for long durations immediately
after having brought him home. The little one should not be
left alone at home from day two because it is likely to sadden
him a lot. The fellow would miss its companions a lot after
being separated from them. So, make sure that someone is there
to take care of it when you are not around.

These little things have a simple life, especially those who
have just weaned. All they do is eat-sleep-play,
eat-sleep-play. Nothing else. Take care that you have his
little sleeping bed ready when he feels tired because the
fellow is likely to stretch right there where it feels tired.
Cuddle it and take it to his bed and lay him there. Eventually,
he will get into the habit of coming around to sleep where he
wakes up regularly.

Feeding is important too because they are frequent eaters in
the beginning. A 12 week old puppy eats four times a day. When
it is 12 weeks to 6 months old, you may reduce it to 3 times a
day. Between six months and one year of age, it would be happy
with one meal a day, of course depending upon the overall size
and weight of it.

And don't forget the puppies are much like children. Scold them
gently and praise them profusely. That's the best way to train
them.
