That's dr. nicholas dodman, of tufts university, the most
pathetic veterinary college on the face of the earth, other
than perhaps, the black school in Alabama or some such
place which did the shock collar study PAID FOR by the
shock collar manufacturer that jeff dege used to sup****t
shocking dogs to train them.

> among others,

I been tellin you to not read that kind of IDIOCY, paulie. dr.
dodman, like dr. ian dunbar *(altHOWE they are LOATH to
ADMIT it), are SHOCK COLLAR FANS who SELL anti-
psychotic medications to treat phobic and aggressive behaviors
 CAUSED BY shock collars, intimidation and bribery <{}: ~ ( >

COINcidentally, paulie, I've REtrained many dogs and their owners
who had been "treated" by dr. dodman and "trained" by his associate
dra. amy marter who writes the veterinary column in Readers Digest,
whom I've talked to, personally. She's a IMBECILE, paulie.

 She couldn't even understand the basic functioning of the brain as
I QUOTED to her from "The Oxford Companion To The Brain" to
substantiate my "WILD A$$ED CLAIMS" for the rehabilitation of
NORMAL doggy behaviors AS PROVEN by Pavlov, Corson, Lorenz
and company:

Sam Corson, Pavlov's Last Student Demonstrated At UofOH,
That Rehabilitation Of Hyperactive Dogs Can Easily And
Readily Be Done Using TLC. Tender Loving Care Is At The
Root Of The Scientific Management Of Doggies.

"All animals learn best through play," Lorenz.

"The IMBECILITY of some of the claims for operant
technique simply take the breath away. Lovas et al
(1966) re****t a standard contingent reward/punishment
procedure developing imitative speech in two severly
disturbed non verbal schizophrenic boys. After twenty-
six days the boys are re****ted to have been learning
new words with alacrity. HOWEver, when REWARDS
were moved to a delayed contingency the behavior and
learning immediately deteriorated.

Programs utilizing the "contingencies of reinforcement
model" proposed by Skinner (1963) are no more well
established in research than the various dynamic
therapists."

Research in four areas : 1) direct evaluation of
programmed systems for learning; 2) reinforcement;
3) cognitive dissonance; and 4) motivation, MOST
SURELY DEMOLISH the claims of operant programers."

"It is NO WONDER that the marked changes in
deviant behavior of children can be achieved
through brief, simple educative routines with
their mothers which modify the mother's social
behaviors shaping the child (Whaler, 1966).

Some clinics have re****ted ELIMINATION of the
need for child THERAPY through changing the
clinical emphasis from clinical to parental
HANDLING of the child (Szrynski 1965).

A large number of cases improved sufficiently after
preliminary contact with parents that NO treatment
of children was required, and almost ALL cases
SHOWE a remarkably shortened period for therapy.
Quite severe cases of anorexia nervosa have been
treated in own to five months by simply REPLACING
the parents tem****arily with EFFUSIVELY LOVING
SUBSTITUTES (Groen, 1966)."

The entire article is MEANINGLESS BUNK, paulie. I MIGHT
be willin to review it if I'm not entirely disgusted after replying
to your pathetic post <{}: ~ ( >

*LUCKY* dog, eh, paulie?? I mean, given your own

AS STATED, paulie, MHOWETHING is a BONDING behavior.

You can ***(well, NOT YOU, but ANY WON ***well, NOT
ANY WON HERE***), CAN EXXXTINGUISH MHOWETHING
NEARLY INSTANTLY by simply PRAISING IN ADVANCE
and failing THAT, briefly, non physically, alternately distracting
and INSTANTLY PRAISING the "BAD BEHAVIOR" for five
to fifteen seconds.

Try Jerry Howe's training manual and check out his Doggy
Do Right (And Kitty Will And A Rooster Did And A Cockatoo
Or Two Did Too) machine....it is for this.


Please do not listen to the others in here that don't like
him or his methods, they have never tried them....I  have
and it works!!!!


I broke my dog from nipping almost 100% in 1 day and
she usually does this SEVERAL times a day and actually
makes my kids bleed!


Try it or contact him!  The manual is at the above website
also, and it is free!

 Hi !
 Our black lab girl is 3 months old (she
 will be 4 months on the 30th).
When we first brought her home she had
 a bad habit of trying to nip our faces (including
 my 3 year old twins) during playtime.  It drove
everyone in the house nuts and it brought my
 little girls to tears as you can imagine.


We tried saying no, and that would just get
 her even more excited, so we would yell no
 and that would just get her "scared" but still
 excited.  In short it just wasn't working.


 So we finally did what Jerry has suggested
 to you. We used a sound do distract her and
 we would immediately praise her.


 I have to say that it worked great.  BUT she
 then moved on to nipping at the feet LOL silly
 little thing.


So again, we tried no, and then louder no,
 but again it didn't work so we went for the
 distraction and praise.


 I must say that she is doing great!


I hope that helps.
 Edyta aka Ned

Your fellHOWE "DOG LOVER" pals recommended
IGNORING the dog's BONDING BEHAVIOR or
INTIMIDATING and PUNI****NG and BRIBING IT.

WHAAAT could you possibly tell them, paulie? You
MIGHT tell them to GET RID of the dog JUST LIKE
HOWE YOU DONE your second "RESCUE DOG"
Lucky when YOU COULDN'T TRAIN IT to be PALS
with your OPPOSITE *** "rescue dog" Muttley who

Your PATHETIC MISERABLE STINKIN ROTTEN LYIN

No, paulie. SOME mom dogs intimidate their puppys JUST
LIKE HOWE SOME human moms, like yours, intimidate
and abuse their children. We got BAD parents in ALL species.

COINcidentally, MOST BAD MOM DOGS are OWNED by
DOG ABUSIN COWARDS like yourself and your pals here.

DISCOURAGING undesirable behaviors REINFORCES them, paulie.

you was TRYIN to train Muttley to BE NICE to him by PUNI****NG

THAT MAKES DOGS AGGRESSIVE:

"Despite Skinner's clear denunciation of "negative
reinforcement" (1958) NEARLY EVER LEARNING
THEORY model involves the USE OF PUNISHMENT.

Of curse, Skinner has never to my knowledge,
demonstrated HOWE we escape the phenomenon that
 an expected reward not received is experienced as a
punishment and can produce extensive and persistent
aggression (Azrin et al, 1966)."

Ahhh, "CLASSICAL CON-ditioning"~! IOW, dr. dodman
AIN'T GOT NO METHOD other than to offer and withold
bribes.

So, THAT MEANS the dog needs to be COMMANDED

dr. dodman means the alphalpha idiocy.

Well paulie, that WAS difficult to review.

           Why Do You Reward The Dog For Being Bad?
                                  Was:
        Punish Dogs Children SP-HOWESESWith PRAISE,
          Unconditional LOVE, TRUST, And RESPECT
                             <{) ; -  )   >

Always praise the dog to show him that you affectionally
sup****t or love him. Praising the dog has nothing to do
with what he has just done, it has to do with your
relation****p with him.

"Good dog" means "I love you, dog".

If the dog is anxious, then you make certain that he
knows that he is in a safe and trusting environment.
You praise and admire him.

Correction is the opposite signal, you are my enemy,
and this results, quite naturally, in the dog behaving
aggresively - why not, you've declared that you are his
enemy.

Why does paradoxical reward work?

The dog defecates on the floor.  You come up and say
"Good Dog" you love and praise him.

THE DOG KNOWS YOU LOVE HIM.

The dog defecates on the floor because he is anxious.
No wild wolf, jackal, or coyote defecates in his den.
If he defecates in his den its because a bear is outside
trying to get in and eat him.

The dog knows that it is stupid to
defecate where he eats or sleeps.

Don't you?

If the dog feels safe he'll behave as if he
is safe, no pooping on the living room floor.

Almost all maladaptive behavior is due to fear, anxiety,
expectation of disaster. Correct the situation, and the
dog behaves fluently like a ..... Dog!

Punishment deranges behavior, it is never never never appropriate.

Love the dog.

Praise is never punishment, praise is like giving a
piece of steak. If you give a piece of steak to a dog
after he defecates on the floor he'll stop defecating
on the floor.

Fondly, Dr. Von
