Can anyone explain to me how to teach Growl?

  • Knipper: Kicked him in the head??? :eek::eek::eek:

    I'd have done more than tear just a stripe out of her. My stomach turns to knots just thinking of someone kicking a dog in the head!:mad::mad:

    Can't say I blame Blaze at all for growling at her and meaning it.

    Too bad about kids, though. :( It makes me sad the things folks can do to change a dog's attitude.

    @Tayda_Lenny: yeah, I saw that too.. but then why call it "early" entries… if really that is the only time to enter? Oh well... Exactly.. that would be my question too….. really confusing... maybe that is how they always do their premiums, but it is really confusing to new people.... and I have seen many a premium in my day...gggg

    @Duke: Just try and convince a trainer that doesn't do the "positive reward" or "treat based" training methods that their methods are not as effective. The guy who installed our underground fence has since gotten into dog training. He tried to sell me his services when I ordered a collar for Daisy last year. When I asked if his training methods were click and treat based, he said "behavior modification". When I tried to discuss the benefits of the positive reinfocement methods that helped me with Duke, he scoffed that dogs should learn without bribery! Well - I ended the chat since I knew we disagreed. And that is when you just "agree" to disagree and know that is one person you will never use…...

    My advice besides the crate training is to empty him before you leave. Make time to go on a short walk until he goes potty before you leave. My dogs sometimes will poop three times on a short walk. They actually strain to get everything out of them to mark as much as the neighborhood as they can. Our female even backs up and pees on trees. If the he is empty & maybe give him a chewy to keep him busy, and a really nice blanket to sleep on. They love snuggling certain things. He's going to have a hard time pooping/peeing in the house if he has nothing inside of him. [image: P1020271.jpg]

    I wouldnt be surprised if he does or would if you asked. I definately paid too much ($25) for mine when I was at an event and had to have one.
