Breaking Mental Illness News, JUNE 2004!
HATTIE @[EMAIL PROTECTED]
47 lbs!
Hattie, a boxer owned by shelly couvrette is
now down to 47 pounds. Couvrette, a librarian
at Indiana U. who suffers from obsessive/
compulsive disorder (OCD), was told by three
different Veterinarians that Hattie was "way
too skinny" when Hattie weighed 53 lbs.
Undeterred by that, and the reactions from
family and strangers on the street, shelly
continued shopping for vets and cutting
calories until Hattie, a chronic counter
surfer at age 5 now weighs just 47 lbs!
shelly finds all the symptoms of a starving
dog searching for nutrients to be entertaining.
Couvrette has developed a unique
technique to fool dogs who are having
pangs of starvation. She feeds them
green beans and canned pumpkin, so
there will be some "filler" in their
stomachs when they give her the
"I'm Starving--no, really" routine.
shelly is not nearly as obsessed with her
own weight, and has never been told by a
medical professional that she is "way too
skinny." If so, that medical professional would
be end up on this crazy person list as well.

Severe OCD, depression, prescribed Paxil
for mental illness, but claims she does
not take it, resulting in an obsessive
basket case online persona. Posts more than
any other female in all dog newsgroups
(familial mental illness, possibly related
to family bed) obsessively starves her
dogs according to friends, family,
strangers and 3 different vets, but
not herself (see below). Still thinks
of herself as a five year old ballerina
despite the fact that she is a fat
adult in her mid thirties.

A SPECIAL BONUS ON shelly couvrette,
All in the Mental Family
shelly: severe OCD
shelly's mom: chronic depression
shelly's brother: severe BiPolar
shelly's dogs are victims of Munchausens
Anorexia by proxy Syndrome. Here, she goes
off the deep end because she OCD'd on a
conversation she overheard about the quantity
of food being fed to her coworker's son's
****h tzus.
hattie, shelly's starving boxer (who,
theoretically, if she was not being
systematically starved by a psychotic
owner) should weigh at least five times
more than a ****h tzu, yet she doesn't
get five times as much food. She
doesn't even get twice as much.
Can you say "KUCKOOOO!!!"
IT DRIVES ME CRAZY THAT MY COWORKER'S
SON DOESN'T STARVE HIS DOG
****H TZUS EATS MORE THAN HALF AS MUCH
AS HATTIE
one of my cow-orkers was just on the phone
with her son.....
and, get this! the were discussing feeding
amounts. her ****h Tzus eat more than half
as much as my dogs! i don't know if that's
because Iams is less calorically dense than
the foods my dogs eat or what, but i'm
boggled. *boggled*, i tell ya'.
so, anyway, i've bitten my tongue nearly
in half.

EMACIATED, VET WAS SURPRISED
"when i got harriet she was emaciated, so
i asked my vet for advice on slowly adding
weight to her. six months later i took
harriet in for her spring check-up and my
vet was surprised that at how thin she still
was."

STILL VET SHOPPING
"<raises hand> i've been told by three
different vets that harriet (53lbs) is
*way* too skinny. we're still vet-shopping,
BTW."
--shelly couvrette
THE OL' "I'M STARVING" ROUTINE
"if you really can't resist it when your dog pulls
the "i'm starving!" routine <G>, you can give
him some frozen green beans or a small amount
of plain pureed pumpkin. i would also suggest
putting the food out of his sight. i keep my
food--still inside the bags, which are tightly
rolled down--inside trash cans in the closed
laundry room. that keeps it fresh and keeps
it out of my dogs' sight."
--shelly couvrette
POSITIVELY STARVED
"heh. i get the opposite response. people think
that poor little harriet is positively starved
to death. i've actually had people stop me in
the pet supply shop and tell me that i need to
fatten her up!"
--shelly couvrette
WHO WANTS TO BE TOLD YOU ARE
HURTING YOUR WIDDLE PRECIOUS?
"i think that may be part of the problem. who
wants to go to a vet who tells you you're
hurting your .widdle precious? i think the
other part is that some vets really don't
*realize* that what they consider proper weight
is fat. after having been told by a couple of
vets that my dogs are too thin, i've got a dim
view of vets on that topic."
--shelly couvrette
JUST A BITE WON'T HURT
--shelly's mom
FEED HER AND I'LL RIP YOUR
ARM OFF, *****
-shelly
"my mom is kinda that way, but not *as* bad.
she thinks that harriet is awfully skinny,
so feeding her table snax is okay. she
tells me that just a bite won't hurt."

March 2004, HATTIE DOWN TO 47 POUNDS
"while i was sick,
elliott was *pretty* good (he got really
needy and pathetic toward the end), but
harriet turned into 47lbs of pure
orneriness."

NOBODY IS STARVING SHELLY
NOBODY WILL STOP SHELLY ON THE STREET
AND TELL HER SHE IS STARVING HERSELF
shelly's fat face
http://home.bluemarble.net/~sc
ouvrette/Wshelly2.jpg
There are a lot of big fat women on these groups who
starve their dogs out of vanity, but shelly is a special case.
shelly is more than a little bit beyond the pale
Shelly has OCD, and maybe she's just a little
obsessive about measuring out extra tiny and
discrete ****tions with a tiny measuring
cup, or counting out pieces of green bean or
pumpkin that she gives her dogs when they give
her the "I'm Starving" routine. When grandma
tried to give Hattie a snack, shelly probably
went ape****, because it was in violation of
her Obsessive need to oversee every tiny
calorie that goes into her widdle precious'
mouth.
shelly's a special case, a special kind of
dog abuser.
NEWSFLASH
in late september, 2004 shelly left the group
because diddy was a meanie pants to her.
shelly's illness prevented her from seeing
the reality that she was the # 1
meanie pants in the history of the dog
newsgroups. We hope she gets the treatment
she needs.

Won't make any difference.
I've been using an e-collar with my JRT, and it's
worked wonders for his recall. But the one time
he bolted after something small and furry, he paid
no attention to the collar until after he'd brought
it to bay.

Near [sic] is a Jack Russell. And I trust that when he's
in prey-drive, he'll not even hear me call him.

Subject: Chasing squirrels
I have not posted to the group for awhile but
want to share my success of teaching my dog
Sun****ne, who has a very high prey drive, to
not go after squirrels when on a walk. It
took a few trials but he can now walk right
past squirrels running up a tree or in a yard.
Using Jerry Howe's approach I used a sound to
get his attention when he saw a squirrel and
then praised him and kept on walking past the
squirrel. Where we live in Michigan we lots of
squirrels and he was always wanting to chase
them up a tree. Jerry's approach of sound
and praise really works.
I think the people who discount his methods
have never tried the method because it works
everytine. Sometimes it takes a little practice
to get the sound from different directions but
I was able to change Sun****ne's behavior in
just a week after we moved back to Michigan.
Sun****ne is a very sensitive dog so any physical
corrections just won't work but using sound and
praise he is a really great dog who opens doors,
picks up things I drop, and and helps me a lot.
If you have a behavior problem with your dog get
a copy of Jerrry's manual and solve your problem!

Well, let me tell you, your Wits' End
Dog Training Method works.
My dog, Dasie, Loves to chase chameleons
around the barbecue on the patio. I
used this system on four different occasions.
When she went out today, she looked
everywhere else but the barbecue.
Amazing, just amazing.
I will write to Amanda about the video.
I am really excited to learn more, and
understand. Maybe just a little reassurance
that I am going about it the right way.
Thanks again

is how I was greeted when I got home today.
http://www.flickr.com/photos/cat-sidh/3019519911/
Harriet had stopped licking her feet, but suddenly started again over
the weekend, only this time, she was gnawing the hell out of them.
In the time it took me to take a shower, she chewed open the skin on
one of her pinkie toes. She was also rubbing her ears. This is the
first time in years that she's had an ear infection. It cropped up
just before she started chewing her feet, so I'm assuming the two are
related.
She spent the day in the Cone of Shame, and we went back to the vet
this afternoon. (Yes, the cone is too long. I tried a shorter cone
on her, and she was still able to chew. Bendy Dog is a pain in the
ass.) She'll probably have to be in the cone for a few days, while
I'm not home. I will be sleeping with one eye open.
Anyway, I got a refill of cephalexin (her skin infection is almost
cleared up, but not completely), some hydrocortisone spray, and some
antibacterial/anti-fungal wipes for her ears and feet.
We had a longer than normal wait at the vet. We saw the world's
smallest and cutest land manatee (I think it was a Pug mix; it had a
short, fat tail that did not curl), a ****htzu that totally thought he
got a raw deal, because Harriet got treats and he didn't (I
remembered them this time), and an absolutely gorgeous GSD mix
with brindle legs.
Harriet com****ted herself beautifully. Minimal hrmphing and no
crankiness about other dogs--not even the ****htzu on the ubiquitous
Flexi, who made a bee-line for her when he came in.
