  • Sorry i have been MIA for awhile busy with all the holiday things but i mentioned a while back how i wanted to get Phoenix a treadmill to get him to loss a few pounds well it's been a few weeks now and he's lost 2 pds i know that doesn't sound like much but for him it sure is lol He took very well to the treadmill only gave me a hard time the first couple times now he jumps right on it and looks at me like MOM come on and get the cookies i need to work out LOL i got a couple pics {sorry so dark there from a camera phone} it's hard to try and keep him walking in a straight line and also hold the camera lol the first one is him getting ready for his run and the other is him trying to push Aspen off. and the last is the wonderful thing that happens after a 10 min run on the treadmill LOL :)

    I am not in your area, but ... you should know that dog training is about teaching you how to interact with your dog, as opposed to teaching your dog how to do things. Most area Kennel Clubs offer training where you are your dogs partner in the class. The things you will learn will last your lifetime. I applaud the non-punitive approach. A lot of people fly off the handle when their dog chews on the wrong thing, or doesn't quite have potty training down. One of the best things you can do is give them love when they do it right and don't react when they don't. Recognize that he's just a pup. You can trade an acceptable chew toy for your shoes, and you can avoid the problem by closing the closet door so your pup can't get to your shoes. Accidents will happen and learning to potty doesn't happen overnight. Just provide a lot of verbal love when the pup gets it right and don't react when he doesn't. Love and praise are the best tools in your training bag. Congrats on your pup. Can't wait to hear about all of your adventures!

    @elbrant Yes, she's good an patient sometimes, I've been taking pics of her from day 1 so she's used to it, I'm allowed a couple of mins and no more though.
