 from being incredibly offensive and self-
righteous, this post shows and absence of knowledge
in the differences in dogs' temperaments, or perhaps
a lack of ability to perceive same.

 The fact that you, Alison, have never met a dog to
whom corrections and discomfort, even pain, were
unim****tant does not mean that such dogs do not exist.

What it means is that you don't know as much about
dogs as you think you do, and you surely don't know
a damn thing about Harlan or anyone else's dog here.

I had a Dalmatian that would instigate fights with
one of her housemates; that dog had no fear or
anything, and pain incurred during a fight meant
nothing to her.

I know that that dog is not unique, and I'm sure many
people here can tell similar stories.  The fact that
you, Alison, continue to say things to people such as
what you said to Theresa about causing her dog to
suffer (at least I guess that's what you meant by
"you cause your dog suffers" - - must be the King's
English you guys talk about over there) means that
you are an ignorant, arrogant, insensitive person
who is not worth further notice.

 Nope.  No more than you'd convince Patch that
 prongs and e-collars, in the right hands, are not
 intrinsically abusive; or that dogs trained properly
 with prongs or e-collars are not fearful, in pain, or
 intimidated; or that any one of us here knows our
 own dogs and their reactions better than someone
 who has never seen them or us...hmmm.

 I'm starting to see some similarities here.

I guess this is just one of those instances in which I feel
that the US is turning into a nation of victims.  And please,
don't anybody jump all over me, because I am not talking about
anyone personally. Everything seems to be a compensatable (not
sure if that's actually a word) disability.  If 3/4 of the people are
physically disabled or mentally ill, what's 'normal'?

Terrible parents, painful childhoods, physical illnesses,
psychological problems, etc. are all part of who a person is,
and therefore how s/he sees the world and interacts in it. But
life isn't about who you are and what you've got, it's what
you do with it.

 For me anyway, the more I think of myself as
partially disabled, the more I am that way.

Sorry, I don't mean to sound like Dr. Phil.

 First, I punish behavior, not dogs.

 Second, I rarely issue corrections.


 Third, as time goes on my dog uses the pillow less frequently.


 I would say he uses it about once a month. Finally, I'm not
 really concerned about my dog's masturbating; I don't find
 such dog behavior offensive.


 Eating dog poop, for me, is another story. And the rate
 of that behavior has also diminished with time. :-)

 What is wrong with "The Puppy Wizard"?

 I know his posts are a little wacky but his sound
 distraction technique has worked very well for me.
 After using traditional training with mixed results,
 I was able to stop my dog from jumping up, eating
 poop, begging from the table and excessive barking
 using his methods.

Just wanted to say thanks. The method you told me
to stop my dog from eating my other Labs sh-t in
the backyard has worked well. She has also improved
greatly when off leash out in the woods.

She still sniffs (ofcourse), but I rarely need to stop
her from anything else. I've always been diligent about
watching her, and cleaning up the yard, but ya just
can't be there every second. And she is quick!

So, thanks again for the advice.

I feel more confident now when I turn my back.

And to all you folks going yea, sure, right.

THIS IS NOT A TROLL POST.

HE gave me advice. It worked. Plain and simple.

Nothing more, nothing less.

So Jerry, allthough I don't lurk here, I'm sure
you're still putting up with DogButt and his ilk.

So good keep up the good work!

Of course DogButt will read this, even thoe it doesn't
have his name on it. Cause he thinks he owns the group.

So to you DogButt.........Well,,,,never mind.

You're already a loser. I don't need to tell you that.

Please feel free to correct my spelling/grammer, etc.
Yes, goodbye, good riddance, blah blah blah.

The sound distraction and praise method he uses is VERY effective,
I use those techniques on my dogs and the results are great.  From
teaching a dog to recall to preventing unwanted behaviours (****
eating, eating the cats food, growling when taking a bone from a
dog, jumping up, even escaping from the property, any behaviour).

To say sound distraction and praise methods don't work is pure
ignorance.

I can understand you not liking Jerry and being pissed off with
the posts he submits but please keep things in context and don't
slam a technique just because you can't stand the person suggesting
using it.

Date: 2003-10-08 16:18:56 PST

I've been having a problem with my dog, Axel,
relieving himself in the house while I'm away
from home.

I've used TPW method's, and yesterday I was out
for 12 hours, and Axel didn't have one single "accident".

Today, I had hoped that the results would be just as
good - and they were (I was out for 11 hours).

The problem began when, as a puppy, Axel would
relieve himself in the house and I would point
at the mess and tell him "NO" or "Bad Dog".

That made him afraid to relieve himself in the
house or infront of me.

After I got TPW's training manual, I corrected my
mishandling of these instances.

When I came home to an "accident", I would simply
drop a can near the area and ask Axel "What's that?"
Then I would clean it up - with out showing him I was
the least bit upset about the mess, and when he looked
at the spot I would tell him "Good boy, you're a good dog".

This has been an ongoing problem, and thanks to the
Puppy Wizard, we've finally got it taken care of...

Also, Axel LOVES the cat's litter box...He enjoys the
"snacks" he can find in there...I followed TPW's methods
by alternating sounds and praising him while or before
he sticks his nose in it, and today, he's been going into
the room with the cat box and barking.  That's because
he's thinking about getting into the box, but he knows he
shouldn't.

Thank you, Jerry, for all you help.

 You've been a blessing to all of us.

I'm not exactly sure why Jerry is saying to ignore me, it's his
advice that I found was the most successful.  During walks in a
particular park the dogs would come across fresh cow pats and
munch away happily.

To stop this I'd set them up, I'd find a nice fresh cow turd and
stand next to it, when the dogs came over and saw it they would
start to munch, at the onset of this I'd chuck a throw chain near
the dog to distract it and praise straight away, the reason for
the praise is the dog stops eating as soon as it hears the
distraction so I'm praising that behaviour, the not eating.

I'd set them up again and repeat, but make the sound come from
a  different direction, maybe the first time chuck the chain to
the right of the dog, the next time to the left, then behind etc,
it's the randomness that is effective and always sincerely praise
immediately.

Now when I walk through the park they leave the turds alone,
they aren't interested in them anymore due to the distraction
training.  Don't let the dog know that you made the sound, the
sound just "occurs" this is im****tant as it removes "you" out
of the problem.

I hate to be in such agreement all the time, but am excited
about Coco the Rotti we have boarded here. Yes she made my
job easier (no poo to pick up) as at her home she eats poo
due to major anxiety and being punished with a stick for it.
She was living on it just about.

It was gross, and she is a beautiful dog.

I decided to change this. It has taken 6 days for HER to
get an appetite and I PICK up poo now. We have yard kennels
here, so it's hard to catch every dog doing everything. I
took all the pressure off her. SHE is using a dog house,
not cowering at her gate. SHE is breaking the habit of body
blocking me so I cannot leave her area. SHE is now playing
ike a normal doggie.

What did I do?  Not much. Just ask as the other's are doing,
and be patient. Not making a big deal out of behavior she is
used to being punished for.

 I can snap a finger now to distract her, and say "Coco
 back good girl"  I move into Hot and Cold on a bad day.
 The owner just got done putting up a security door due
 to her taking out the old one. The dog has quit blocking
 me from getting in my door when out for play. My job is
 getting easier, it's a pain to be rushed by a pack of
 dogs all trying to come in.

Call the dogs puppets, they don't care!

Last reply/post from me just to explain to Joshua.
Then I'm outta here(yippee).

No I was not trying to TROLL. I wanted to post a
thank you to Jerry. That's it. Never said I didn't
want anyone else to read it. I did say that I knew
DogButt would read it even thoe it wasn't for him.
He thinks everything in here is his business.

So he had to post some childish response because he
can't help it. He is sooo predictable. He will read
this too and again post a childish response. If he
doesn't, it will show a strength of will that I don't
 believe he has.

Not trying to be a rat or anything else. I clearly said
what I wanted to say about Jerry's help with my dog problem.

It is sad that this group is still so antagonistic all the time.

There is a lot of knowledge here, but it is rarely
disseminated in a kindly manner. Most newbies get
ran off in fairly short order, and go over to r.p.d.breeds
where people are much freindlier. Seems like most
posters in here have been around each other too long.

Some sort of internet cabin fever or something (IMHO).

Anyway, I won't be reading your's or DogButt's reply. So feel
free to go at each other's throats as usual,flame me and my
post, whatever.

Again, thanks Jerry and all of you have a nice day......
well except you DogButt!

Maybe Jerry can help you stop eating sh-t!

Yeah? Your friend Mistress ****rley is a B&D/S&M SPECIALIST
who can't train the come command withHOWET her trusty SHOCK
COLLAR you pathetic lyin animal murderin ignorameHOWES:

Here's your PAL, MISTRESS ****rly chong,
crapHOWES CLICKER TRAINER:

"To be effective as a positive punisher, I set the level
of shock at a level high enough (in my best guesstimation)
to be unpleasant to the dog. I want the dog to startle a
bit and even yelp when they get shocked.

No, this is not pleasant.

After each shock, I call the dog again (because many
dogs tend to panic when something mysteriously reaches
out and stings them)."

But don't go away yet, my pretty flying monkey, there's MOORE:

"If the dog is still refusing the recall, then I escalate my
aversive  a bit--usually, to taking two big handfuls of ruff
as I move backwards.

Some dogs do get "long line wise.""

No, some trainers are just long line stupid.

You can't force a dog to come.

"That is, they never refuse a recall while on the long line
but when the long line is gone, they are unreliable even if
the handler started with close recalls off lead in a familiar
(and safely fenced) area."

That's because you can't teach compliance with force no
matter HOWE gently you try to force. ANY force, even verbal
intimidation, will cause the opposition reflex to compel the
dog to do other than what you want.

Too bad you sharp trainers here don't understand that. It's
called positive thigmotaxis, and it's just as valid with a
choke collar as it is with a mental attitude. Force causes
the dog to not respond.

"IF the dog never ever refuses a recall while on the long
line, no matter what the distraction (and I am pretty good
at devising distractions for this test!), then I move to a
shock collar."

That's a competent clicker trainer, by golly!

Where do you people come off with that kind of crap?

Here's Miss ****rly, the CLICKER TRAINER you recommended to us:

Congratulations!

My advice is to ask your doctor. Because your doctor is the
one who knows your specific conditions, because there's a
lot of advice out there of varying quality (including this!)
and because it's im****tant to have peace of mind that you
are doing the right thing at a time like this.

Most doctors have heard it all. If they haven't heard it all,
they should have. <G> If you have reason to believe that your
doctor may react badly then maybe that's an indication this
isn't the doctor for you.

Better to find this out now rather than when you are in
labor and not in the mood to holler at some rank narrow
mindedness and unable to gather your dignity and march out.

Those hospital gowns just don't cut it for dignified exits
unless you back out the door and then there's the little
problem of who is out in the hall.

Much easier in the long run to tell the truth.

I don't slap them around so much. I'll pop em, and all
when they do something wrong, and fuss at em.  But I have
found something even better to make them stop what they
are doing.

A dustbuster.  Just turn it on.  Or show it to them.  They
hate any type of va*** cleaner.  It's worked about keeping
Jake out of the garbage.  I sat in the kitchen a whole day,
and every time he went to the garbage can and went to stick
his head in, I turned it on.  He stopped that.

Mainly I just pet them.  They lay there by my chair and I
reach down and scratch them.  They get up in the chair with
me.  Tha'ts not easy when they are that big.  But they still
think they are puppies.  I do spoil them sometimes, but they
are my boys, and I love them.

I have a solution for that one. When some clueless idjit
allows their dog to come up to mine, I call over sweetly
"don't worry, the vet doesn't think he's infectious anymore."

A carryover from my years showing horses when idjits leading
a horse down the aisle of a barn would let their horse poke
it's head into my horse's stall. I'd grab a bottle of Ring-Ex
(ringworm medication) and start spritzing ostentatiously. And
mention that my vet thought we had the infestation cleared up.

I never mentioned that the bottle was full of plain water. <G>

If I'm not in a nice mood, I just scare the bejeebers out
of the oncoming dog to send it away. When they say "but
he's friendly" I say "well, I'm not." My dogs never have
to defend themselves on leash. I think they sort of enjoy
seeing me chase other dogs away, there's a certain smugness
in the way they lean against me while looking at the other dog.

Katherine, I have nothing against the use of prong collars
and recommend them when I feel it is appropriate. Just like
any tool, there are situations when a prong collar is the
best tool for a job and there situations where a prong
collar is the worst tool for a job.

Prong collars do tend to magnify a dog's aggressive tendencies.
If the dog is at all inclined to bite unreasonably, the prong
collar will often send it right over the edge.

i worry that he reacted out of fear
 and i gave him more reason to fear.

luce is a huge barrier-pusher. i've wigged out
on her a few times, too, and that i don't think
was necessarily a bad thing. but with this guy,
because he's kinda timid and i think kinda
fearful, i feel bad about.

i put a harness on him and he seems much more
comfortable with having that held. he simply
cannot be handle-less until he learns things like
come, stay, and to go in his crate.

Oh, like HOWE you done for your own fear
aggressive DEAD "RESCUE" dog Homer?

                Oh, you mean LIKE THIS:

Homer 1994 - 03.01.2007"
brothers and sisters i bid you beware
of giving your heart to a dog to tear

i put homer to sleep yesterday.

it was quite possibly the hardest thing i've ever done.

monday night i was trying to teach him to down using a
food lure. he wasn't getting it, so i put a hand on him to
try to encourage him to down. he attacked me, biting me
twice on the hand, and then when i stood up and backed
away, he came after me more and bit me on the leg as well.

i was shocked and devestated and a hundred other things.

i ended up emailing my trainer (who has turned out to be a
very kind friend) and she called me and i spent an hour on
the phone with her crying. she doesn't deal with aggression
cases, but she listened to me and talked me down. i hardly
slept that night.

tuesday i took homer in to work with me and had the vet
feel his neck. i didn't think it was a reaction due to pain
but i had to check it out. the vet put his hands on the sides
of homer's head and manipulated his head around. homer
didn't show any signs of pain or discomfort. he went
through the motions some more.

homer flipped out, with no warning, extremely violently. it
took him a long time (it felt like a lifetime. it was probably
around 3 minutes) to calm down enough that the vet could
take his hands off of homer without anybody getting hurt.

i went home for lunch and called a behaviorist. i spent a lot
of the day reading the brenda aloff aggression book and the
karen overall behavior book.

that night the behaviorist called me and i told her what had
happened and she asked questions and i answered them as
best i could.

she gave him a pretty poor prognosis.

everything that she said made sense to me, and nothing
she said was earth-shattering or even really anything
that i didn't already know.

this morning i took him in and held him close and cried into
his fur and told him how much i love him and let him go.

he was a dangerous dog. he bit unpredictably and with no
warning. he was a love, a snugglebug, a sweet sweet dog
as long as you didn't do anything he didn't want done. but
if you tried to "make" him do something he didn't want to
do, all bets were off. his reaction could be a snap or it could
be an over-the-top meltdown.

i couldn't live with a dog like that.

i *will not* live with a dog like that.

i've spent the last three days crying my eyes out. i never
imagined i could get that attached to a dog who i had for
all of 12 days and who bit me several times during those
12 days.

 but i was. i loved him.

i loved him ferociously, but i had to let him go.

 for his sake.

for my sake.

for the sake of luce and mushroom.

i feel horrible. heartbroken. guilty. angry.

and yet i don't regret him, not for one moment,
despite how things turned out.

 never meant to own a poodle. i used to take those
online "what breed of dog is right for you tests"
and get poodle and go back and change my answers.

 i especially never meant to own a little poodle.

 sometimes life turns out to be the last thing you expect.

 the first time i met her i had just started working
 overnights by myself. she was hospitalized with
 pneumonia and an ugly anal gland abscess. she
 barked and carried on and peed in her cage every
 twenty minutes and pretty much drove me crazy
 all night and i absolutely couldn't stand her.

 then one of our doctors brought her back to the
 hospital for good. her owner had alzheimers and
 had to go into a home, and pam said she'd take
 siren and try to find her a home. the womans
 other dog was an easy rehome- a 2 year old mini
 poodle, cute as a button. but siren was 16, senile,
 with advanced heart disease, not great kidneys,
 full cataracts in both eyes, and no potty training
 whatsoever.

 she stayed about 2 months in the kennels. she
 grew on me. i would leave her out with me at
 night so she'd get some exercise and some
 attention. one night i mentioned to the vet who
 had brought her in that i wished i could take
 her but was afraid i couldn't afford her.

  she'd need multiple medications, regular bloodwork,
  x-rays, etc. the vet offered to pay for her medical bills
  if i'd give her a good home.

 she told me she didn't expect siren to live more than
 a year.  she lasted 18 months and 4 days. she could
 have kept going physically. but her little brain had
 just run out. the past two weeks she's just been terrible.

she was pacing nonstop and wouldn't or couldn't stop.

 i'd pick her up and try to bring her back to bed and
 quiet her down, and her legs would just keep pacing
 as i held her.

she was getting lost and stuck in corners, and at walls,
 and in weird places i can't figure out how she got into.
 she hardly knew where she was or what was going on
anymore.

and when i asked her what she wanted, all i got was
an overwhelming feeling of apathy.

so i took her in tonight after appointments and we
put her to sleep. it was one of the hardest decisions
 i've ever had to make.

 i think i've been crying for a week. i thought i was
cried out, but when the vet was giving her the
injection and started crying,

 i lost it.

i'm home now and just feel so empty. i have to
figure out what  to do with all her things. her bed.
her coats. i feel so lost.

 they got me beautiful flowers at work and i keep
 looking at them and tearing up again because i
 am just so touched.

 she was a special dog and she touched a lot of
 people's lives. i miss her very much.

 goodnight my little space princess. sleep sweet
 and remember me in your dreams.

thanks. i'm amazed by how quickly he settled in here,
to be honest. i thought it was going to take much longer
for the young dogs to settle down around him.

02/25/2007: "the new dog."

Last saturday i adopted a 12 1/2 year old mixed breed dog from a local
shelter. my best guess is pit bull x beagle (does that make him a
piggle?). there's definitely beagle in there. anyway, he was at the
shelter because his owners got divorced. it was so cold there and he
was so sad and ****vering and it was just terrible. it took me a long
time and several trips to see him before i made a decision, but in
the
end, i had to save him.

so homer is here now, 18" at the shoulder, a skinny 37 pounds. he's
doing great. it was a little rocky at the beginning, because the wild
young dogs want to play with him, and he doesn't appreciate their
demolition derby style of play. everybody's getting used to everybody
else though, now, and life is much more peaceful. homer's favorite
thing in the world is the red dog bed in my livingroom.

he's such a great dog. old dogs are so often overlooked in the
shelter, but he's fantastic. he's housebroken, quiet in the crate,
polite on a leash, friendly with people, tolerent of other dogs,
doesn't bark, doesn't chew, just wants to snuggle. i am so glad he's
here.

and he's got cool ears.

i worry that he reacted out of fear
 and i gave him more reason to fear.

luce is a huge barrier-pusher. i've wigged out
 on her a few times, too, and that i don't think
was necessarily a bad thing. but with this guy,
 because he's kinda timid and i think kinda
fearful, i feel bad about.

i put a harness on him and he seems much more
comfortable with having that held. he simply
cannot be handle-less until he learns things like
come, stay, and to go in his crate.

"(38) golden rule of pit bull owner****p"

never trust a pit bull not to fight.

we need to remember where these dogs came
 from, what image we created them in.

we designed these dogs as the ultimate canine gladiators,
faced them off in combat, selected for those who won.

we humans have been doing this selective dog breeding
thing for a long time. we're good at it.

and the result, with pit bulls, is dogs who will fight to the death,
dogs who will not back down, dogs who fight to win. period. because
it's instinct.

so when we keep multiple dogs together, multiple pit bulls especially,
there's always some risk. it's im****tant to be careful, to be
vigilant, to take precautions, and to accept that there's always the
possibility of something happening and the responsibility of taking
care of it.

my dogs are never together unsupervised. if they're outside, i'm with
them. if i'm not home, they're crated. i'd prefer it be otherwise, but
it's not safe. 99% of the time they're great together. they adore each
other. they snuggle with each other. they play with each other.

but every once in awhile tempers flare. every once in awhile
they have a go at each other. it's never come to anything serious- a
bit of blood, dogs who have had to be separated- but when it was over
it's always been over.

but someday it could be otherwise. people who keep multiple pit bulls
always live with the chance that one day those dogs won't get along,
that one day the winds will change and they'll have two dogs who
cannot be together, period. there are people who make households work
with separated dogs. i don't envy them one bit. it can't be easy.

so i take what precautions i can, stop what fights i can before they
start. i only give extremely valuable goodies like fresh bones when
the dogs are in their crates (used bones are fine loose). i don't
allow humping or any blatant dominance displays. normal behavior?

sure. a big fight trigger? you better believe it. so it doesn't happen
here. because i said so.

and i keep my fingers crossed and hope that we will always have peace
and two puppies piled in my bed at night happily snoring.

I have to keep mine seperated sometimes, but it's not constant or
definate. If one is having a bad day, they're in one place and the
others are somewhere else.

it must suck bigtime.

if it came to that with my dogs, my parents would
 probably take mushroom for me, but it'd break my heart.

Subject: why is it

that people think that the things that you think about and tell them
about are never bad enough to be the cause of what you're feeling?

 oh he didn't do this or do that. well it means a lot to a two year
old. or a ten year old.

or a mother who denies that things are bad. is it some kind of
competition for sadness? or abandonment? i want someone to tell me
this.

I hear this. I could have written this.

 And my mother will probably never hear me.

 is going swimmingly. the biting issue has been resolved
with a harness, but he's also learning/listening to commands better,
so there's not really much need to
physically direct him now, which is good.

he's sleeping upstairs on a dogbed on my bedroom floor at night
instead of in his crate, he's eating better (though he still takes for
freaking ever) and things have settled down so that it's not such a
three ring circus here. i am grateful.

this morning i invited him up on the bed for a snuggle and he hopped
up, spun around, flopped down, rolled on his back, and gazed at me so
adoringly. i am so glad he is here.

<http://shattering.org/images/homer****trait.jpg>

you know what's funny? i didn't meet him out of the kennel the first
time i saw him because he was humping his blanket non-stop and that
kinda grossed me out. he doesn't hump anything here.

my only gripes about him is that he's a wandering pooper, and that his
nails are so freaking disgustingly long but i can't take more than a
tiny sliver off the ends because his quicks are also so freaking long.

poor guy.
