The issue rotates around having the capacity to control the pooch, and to control him in his condition. This is finished by putting a straightforward lead on him. You'll see what a distinction it makes – when he's not wild, you can control him.<br />
<br />
On the principal endeavor he's as yet yelping entirely all out. Thus, what I'm doing is honing – practically experiencing the entryway, in and out, in and out. When he barks, this enables me to take lead and simply say: hello! Without the lead on you, truly just of lose a great deal of control.<br />
<br />
The more I rehash the in-out activity, you can see the Bichon Frise getting more quiet and more settled. He's improving and better at taking my lead. Be that as it may, essentially, you can see I'm not yelling at him. I'm not touching him. I'm quite recently taking control of him and pointing at him and coordinating my fingers saying: hello, that conduct is inadmissible.<br />
<br />
He truly begins to quiet down and get it. Furthermore, this is the place it's critical to bring up that on the off chance that you didn't have that lead on him, he would be circling – on the grounds that he's a shrewd, legitimate little pooch, he'd realize that you couldn't get him. He gets himself into such a state making all, to the point that commotion and turns out to be absolutely wild. However, as should be obvious with the lead on, he's significantly more quiet.<br />
<br />
It's somewhat genuine that old propensities hardcore – he's so used to yelping that he needs to have two or three barks. In any case, once more, in the event that I didn't have this straightforward lead on him, this little Bichon Frise would be yapping, running here and there these stairs as he did some time recently, going distraught. Yet, when you can take control of the earth and stop it, he checks it from developing in any way before long. What's more, you simply rehash.<br />
<br />
And after that, when he's carrying on the you need, lead the pack off. Perceive how it goes. You'll be astounded at how rapidly your pooch will change, however you may in any case need to practice to truly engrave this conduct.gamiruhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01930708225561147237noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8194020862618823345.post-16571604230777815912016-03-04T06:25:00.001-08:002017-09-17T19:22:10.476-07:00Turn Your Puppy Into The Perfect Dog<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

</tbody></table>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
There's a lot of talk about how to raise the perfect dog. It's what we all
want but the question is... </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
do they exist?
I suppose the answer is a bit like... is there a perfect person? </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Of
course, the answer to that is... Nope! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
However there are some pretty great people out there, and there are
some really amazing dogs too. So what’s the trick?
This is my best advice.
Before you get hung up about going to <b>puppy </b>school and learning how
to do high-fives, roly-polies and the commando crawl, ask yourself
this... </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Is this what my dream dog does? Is my dream dog basically a
performing monkey whom I wheel out when visitors come around so
they can say “Wow that’s cool, how clever is he...How did you <b>train</b> him
to do that...” and so on and so forth.
The kicker is that in many of these cases the next thing that the dog
owner has to do is warn the visitors “Now...don’t go near his food bowl
when he’s eating, and careful when you pat him not to go near his head,
and keep the children away from his toys..!” </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It’s crazy isn’t it?
We spend so much time and effort focusing on how to do commands
such as sit and stay but never even think about some of the really
important stuff. And when we do it's often too late.
Want to know why this is so?
Because most <b>dog trainers</b> are stuck doing what everyone else is doing...
And that’s <b>training </b>the sit, the down and the stay! That’s right. Its like
sheep, everyone following each other and nobody asking WHY? </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Think about it... has a dog ever been put to sleep (yes, I am talking
about euthanized) because they didn't do a proper sit? Or because their
down command was a bit slow? Or because they had a poor stay? Of
course not... nobody really cares about that stuff.
Yet that’s what we all learn at <b>puppy</b> school! WHY?!
But... Aggression? Oh Boy.
More dogs are put to sleep for aggression, barking, growling, and
challenging than any other reason. Aggressive to children, owners,
strangers – its all bad news. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
There is nothing more dangerous than an out of control dog, pulling you
along on the leash, ignoring you when you let them off. Never mind the
danger to themselves around cars and other dogs.
Yet so few <b>dog trainers</b> show you how to prevent all of this, because
very few actually understand it themselves!
Most people's real idea of a perfect dog, in no particular order, will
include all of the following 5 important behaviors: </div>
<ol>
<li>Calm around all other animals including dogs </li>
<li>Friendly to all people including children </li>
<li>Relaxed and obedient around the home </li>
<li>Amazing at coming when called at the park </li>
<li>A real angel when walking on the leash in public </li>
</ol>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Hhmmm... I can hear you thinking....</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
You’ve got a point!
Let me guess your next question...
So how do we achieve it? </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Well the great news is that it's not complicated. At least it's not
complicated or tricky anymore... all thanks to Doggy Dan’s The Online

</tbody></table>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Have you ever been in the situation where you are out for a walk with your
dog, happily going down the street when your heart misses a beat and then
sinks because you see another dog coming?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It means only one thing. Your lovely but very <u><i><b>dominant dog</b></i></u> is going to try to
leave their mark on yet another dog. And you've no idea how badly this could
go!
Even though the other dog is on a leash you know you're in trouble if they
come too close, and so you start looking for an exit strategy...
But before you know it your dog is pulling like crazy and the hair on their back
is starting to rise.
You’ve tried everything to stop this behavior. Like tugging on the leash, a
different collar, distraction with food but nothing has made the slightest bit of
difference.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now it’s just a case of keeping them separated at all costs.
You've started to give up all hope.
So where did it all go so horribly wrong?
The thing that so many dog owners and trainers don’t seem to understand is
that if you’ve been giving your dog the wrong messages at home then it's too
late to turn it around when you see another dog on the street.
The simple fact is this...</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Dogs are simple animals. And I mean that in a very loving way. But they’re
simply not interested in bigger TVs, faster cars or their next holiday.
Rather, dogs are about survival. First and foremost. Which includes protect
the property and the pack, especially when they are outside.
Now. Think about it. Dogs are pack animals. They understand there are
leaders and followers.
And the leaders decide what is dangerous and take the initiative protecting the
pack.
So what do you think happens when your dog thinks that they are the pack
leader and they walk down the street and see another strange dog coming?
That’s right.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
They walk up to them chest-up, head-up, tail-up and try to get
them to back down.
And that’s when it all goes pear-shaped.
But what started the reaction was giving your dog the message that they were
in charge in the first place! That they're in fact the Pack Leader in your home.
This is where Doggy Dan’s <b>dog training method<i></i></b> is so cool. He totally
understands how to show dogs that you're the pack leader and the site
explains how YOU can do all of that in a very simple way. Dan even offers
YOU a 3 Day $1 trial of the site that you can take advantage of.
But what's really impressive is that he does it in such a kind and gentle way.
And its very simple, he uses 5 Golden Rules.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When you can see Doggy Dan's pack around other dogs they do not overplay
their role because they all know that he is the pack leader and so can take it
easy.
Now of course all dogs are different and some dogs are naturally more
<u><b>dominant</b></u> than others, and there are some who like to be more submissive. It
doesn't really matter what kind your dog is.
The secret is this:
YOU need to be the Pack Leader. Once you establish this you will find all the
other <b>training</b> tricks will start to work. A gentle pull on the leash, the distraction
using a food treat and the gentle word of warning.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The fact is that the<b> training approaches</b> that you're currently using are
probably really good ones but without a solid foundation they simply don’t
work.
Because in summary your dog is not taking any notice of you once the other
dog shows up. Your dog has bigger things to worry about, like protecting
followers in their pack (you).
So, to turn it around... again, YOU need to become the pack leader.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Doggy Dan has given me some<b> great training tricks<i></i></b> that I can share that will
help you achieve that calmer dog as the other dogs approach, so here are a
couple.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But remember, the pack leader foundation HAS to be in place first.</div>
<ol style="text-align: justify;">
<li><h4>
Food distractions
: This approach can really work with some food
hounds! The key is this: use it as a distraction. Do not reward your dog
after they have lunged towards the oncoming dog. Use amazing food,
such as chicken or cheese. Not their usual biscuits! </h4>
</li>
<li><h4>
Take it slowly
: Do not expect miracles overnight. Unless you've just put
the pack leader rules in place! Often pushing things too fast will result in
it going wrong, but going slowly builds confidence. </h4>
</li>
<li><h4>
Master the walk
: Make sure that you've gotten control of your dog's
walking before you meet the oncoming dog. If you need to consider a
device other than a flat collar to achieve this then do so.</h4>
</li>
<li><h4>
Stay focused on what you want
: It’s easy to get sucked into following
your dog's behavior but remember that you need to continue to show
your dog exactly how you want them to behave.</h4>
</li>
<li><h4>
Be ready to step in
: Stay focused on the best result but be ready to
step in and quickly guide your dog away or gently tug or correct them.
Once you've done this remember to relax immediately afterwards. </h4>
</li>
</ol>
<ol style="text-align: justify;">One of the things that I love about this whole method is that it works with your
dog's natural instincts.
For example it’s natural that one dog will be above another. You can’t take that
out of dogs. But by positioning yourself as the top dog in the pack, they will not
be nearly as likely to become overly protective, tense, <b>dominant<i></i></b> or take things
too far.
If you want to watch a great video of two dogs playing at <b>being dominant<i></i></b> and
submissive then check this video out.</ol>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Wo98RlvjFEI" width="560"></iframe>
</div>
<ol style="text-align: justify;">If you're thinking that it's time to take control back from your dog, and become
the kind and gentle pack leader that they are looking for then
To get your 3 day $1 trial and take a look around this amazing site now, <insert affiliate="" here="" link=""> Remember that trying to deal with the problem when you see the other<span style="color: blue;"> <b><i>dog
approaching</i></b></span> is always going to be too late. It’s about sorting out the real
cause of the issue that will turn things around.
Your dog is just waiting for you to give them the right messages!

Few things in life can drive you crazy as a <b><i>constantly barking dog</i></b>.
Whether they have that deep shuddering “Woof, woof, woof” or that ear
piercing “Yap, Yap, Yap” it can do your head in very quickly. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The great news is that <b>barking </b>is not something that dogs need to do in
order to be happy. In fact, generally <u><b>speaking barking</b></u> is a sign of
stress,
frustration, anxiety or over excitement and none of these emotions are
particularly good for your dog.
Or you! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Remember a content, relaxed dog does not bark! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So lets take a look at one specific type of<b> barking </b>and get you started
on
putting a stop to it... </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Dogs who bark when you are not at home is a very common issue.
Usually people have no idea that they have a problem until the
neighbour or even worse the dog control officer pays you a visit.
Understanding why your dog is<i> barking </i>is the key to stopping it so you
can actually address the cause of your dogs problem and not just treat
the symptoms. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now bear with me on this one because... you MUST remember you
have to see it all through your dogs eyes! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So think of it like this... </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Your dog is a pack animal and understands that there are leaders and
followers.
And one of the pack leader's jobs is to protect the pack. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So when on Monday morning everybody leaves the house to go to work and
leaves the dog at home alone they become stressed... and so
would you if you lost your pack!
That’s the reason why they're stressed and <b>barking</b>. They are calling out
to you to come back. They just are trying to do their job.
Think about it... If you are a parent with a young 3 year old child, one
of
your main jobs is to keep that child safe, so you keep an eye on them.
All the time. All over the house you know where they are. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
They are safe.
You are relaxed.
If they suddenly walk out of the house and shut the front door behind
them locking you in what would you do?
Chase after them? Of course...
But. What if the door was locked and you couldn’t open in. And all the
other doors and windows are locked. Then what would you do...
Phone for help? Your dog doesn't have that option!
Shout for help? Well that is exactly what your dog is doing...
You certainly wouldn't sit down, relax and have a cup of tea, knowing
your young child was wandering around the streets alone.
Are you starting to see why your dog is stressed and <u>barking </u>when you
leave now?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And all those other annoying behaviors such as chewing, destruction
and trying to dig under the fence, or jump over the fence that only
happen when you're not around... Yep, that’s right. They are all
symptoms of a stressed dog that’s desperately concerned about you not
being home and safe. Remember your dog can’t speak English to tell
you any of this!
So what’s the solution? Well it’s almost certainly not by giving them a
bone to chew on whilst you are away. Imagine saying to the parent who
is totally stressed that their young child is out on the streets... </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“Don’t worry, here’s a box of chocolates”! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
You may love chocolates but
it
is not going to work in this situation.
Toys jammed full of food and other distractions do not treat the cause
of the problem either. They are only treating the symptoms and so may
work, if you’re lucky, for half an hour or so – max – but not long term.
Most of you will know that this doesn't work because you'll have already
tried it!
The solution is actually very simple.
You need to become the pack leader in your dog’s eyes.
Once you do this correctly your dog will not see it as their job to
protect
you.
You will be able to come and go as you please and they will be totally
relaxed. This is the real solution to having a calm relaxed dog. No tricks here,
just an honest understanding. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now. Becoming the pack leader is not complicated. Anyone can do it,
however it's not really something that I can explain in 2 minutes here.
If
you take a look at Doggy Dan’s website he explains very powerfully how to establish yourself as the
<b>pack leader and stop dogs</b> from <u><b><span style="color: orange;">barking</span></b></u> when you leave them. There is
even a $1 trial of the site that you can take advantage of right now.
Here though are additional tips that you can use in conjunction with
becoming the pack leader that will help stop your<b> dogs barking</b>. </div>

: Exercise your dog before you leave them – a tired dog
is more likely to relax </h4>
</li>
<li><h4>
Find the right space
: Try leaving your <b>dog </b>in different areas –
some <b>dogs </b>will relax more outside, others inside and some prefer
smaller areas such as a washroom </h4>
</li>
<li><h4>
Fed and watered
: Always leave water down and make sure that
your <b>dog </b>is warm and fed before you leave </h4>
</li>
<li><h4>
Pick up the bones
: Leave toys around for your <b>dog </b>but not
bones </h4>
</li>
<li><h4>
Music and TV
: Consider leaving music on for <u><b>your dog</b></u> or the TV
– these distractions can help.</h4>
</li>
<li><h4>
Herbal remedies
: There are some herbal products for <b>dogs
</b>which can help relax them – but again they do not really treat the
cause of the issue, they simply help relax them, and are also
quite costly.</h4>
</li>
<li><h4>
Dog walkers
: A break in the middle of the day can certainly help break up your dogs day. </h4>
</li>
<li><h4>
Leave calmly
: Leave your dog calmly – whilst it's fun to get
excited when you leave your dog it's better if you leave calmly.
Say goodbye 5 minutes before leaving to help them stay relaxed
as you go</h4>
</li>
<li><h4>
Comfort jackets
: There are also jackets and shirts available that
are designed to comfort them – however they are very expensive
and have limited success in my experience. I even know of one
<b>dog</b> that actually ate it!</h4>
</li>
</ol>
<ol style="text-align: justify;">Unfortunately the popular idea that getting another <b>dog </b>is going to stop
the problem is something I would stay well away from. Remember the
source of your dogs issue is not boredom. After all,<i> many dogs</i> who
bark all day when the owners leave are the same dogs who lie around
the house doing nothing most of the weekend when they are at home!</ol>
<ol style="text-align: justify;">So with all that said hopefully now you have a far better understanding
of your dog's problem!
I would suggest if you are really serious about stopping the barking
immediately then take a look at Doggy Dans site and become the pack
leader. That will be the end of your issue.
To take advantage of your 3 Day $1 trial and take a look around this
amazing site =>http://bit.ly/1T423Nw. There is actually an entire section dedicated to stopping this sort of
barking under the <b>dog problem</b> section "Separation Anxiety".</ol>
<ol style="text-align: justify;">It’s not hard but you have to understand your <b>dog's problem</b> through
their eyes rather than human eyes! They do not want more bones, or
biscuits shoved into a ball – what they want is a strong pack leader.
So get started now, take advantage of the 3 Day $1 trial now, don’t hang
around. The sooner you turn things around the sooner your neighbours
will be thanking you for it!</ol>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Have you ever asked yourself whether or not <span style="color: red;"><b><u>using food is cheating
when training your dog? </u></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If you have, then I can promise you that you
are not alone.
It’s something that many people never actually get clear in their minds
and yet it is one of the most powerful topics to understand and also very
simple to
master!
What I am about to explain in this article will almost certainly surprise
you but also make total sense. It will contradict some of the things that
you have
heard through the grapevine, but getting tips from other dog owners at
the park is not always the best place to get your <b>dog training </b>advice
from. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Once
you have read this I’m sure that both you and your dog will have a
better understanding and appreciation for each other.
Firstly, let’s look at the comment that you should never <u><b>use food </b></u>to get
your dog to respond to you because your dog will then only listen to you
if you
have food in your hand. This is simply not true. Doggy Dan, the world
famous <b>dog trainer </b>from TheOnlineDogTrainer.com, tells me his dogs
listen to him
whether he has <b>food </b>or not, yet he trained them all initially with <b>food
rewards</b>.
If you would like to take a look at Doggy Dan’s complete dog and<b> puppy
training site</b> for $1 then you can do. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The reason you can start by <b>using food</b> is because once your dog has learnt to respond to your command without thinking about it, you simply
fade the <b>food
</b>out gradually.
Fading the <b>food </b>out is such an important concept, and is also referred to
as using ‘random rewards’. In a nutshell you simply start giving your dog
the treat
from inside your hand so they can’t see it. Then you slowly start to
reward only every 2nd and then every 3rd time. Eventually you can
space out the
treats until they become random rewards.
In a separate article I’ll explain how to boost your results with the
random rewards and leave your dog totally focused and awaiting your
next command
without using up all your <b>food </b>too fast! So look out for that one… </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The second myth about <b>using food </b>is this: dogs should just be happy to
work for you without any <b>food rewards</b>. I have heard this said and I have
noticed
that it’s nearly always said by people who have not owned or trained
many dogs or by people who are quite happy to use a lot of force, fear
and
aggression in <b>their training</b>. In a way, this approach was the “old school”
way – that dogs should just be obedient or else.
Well the way I see it is this… How long would you work for nothing? Not
long I am guessing! And for many dogs that’s exactly how they see it.
They get
bored working so hard with absolutely no reward in return. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now <span style="color: red;"><i><u><b>not all dogs need food treats</b></u></i></span>, some dogs are just so happy to
please and with them the rewards are optional. However put very
simply, dogs are all
different. There are those who’ll do anything you ask with a smile on
their face, and those who are always thinking about their next meal.
With a dog
who just wants to please there may be no need to use<b> food rewards</b>
once they have understood what you want. On the other hand, dogs
who do not care for
your pats, cuddles or their ball when they are racing around the park
playing with other dogs are the ones that will seriously benefit from
some very tactical<span style="color: red;"><u><b>
food training</b></u></span>. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
By now you’re probably thinking that you always end up giving your<b>
dogs food treats</b>, but that couldn’t be further from the truth! As I
mentioned earlier when
you understand how to fade out your <b>food treats</b> and use a boost-effect
to maximize the use of your treats (which is another topic I’ll cover
soon), you
too will find your dog responding to you lightening fast every time.
So next time you are out with your dog feel free to use<b> food as a reward
</b>when they do something good and don’t worry about anybody telling
you otherwise.
But also remember to start to fading out the rewards over a long period
of time. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
There is no rush though, and we are talking months not days!
Eventually
you may end up only using the <i><b>food rewards</b></i> every 5th time, then every
20th time…
And by the way, if you’re worried about them eating too much, simply
take it out of their dinner so their total amount eaten during the day
stays the same.
Hopefully that helps clear a few things up about the <b>use of food</b>. It’s
always going to be the number one reward for most dogs.
Soon I’ll explain how to boost the effect of using<b> food rewards </b>and also
go into a little more about exactly which<b> food treats</b> will get the best
results. </div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So what’s the score with <b>my dogs digging</b>? I hear you asking…</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Why are they doing it and how do I stop them destroying my beautiful
back garden?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Well here’s the way your <b>dog </b>see’s it and its very different from how you
think! In fact it will answer a lot of your questions.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Firstly though here’s what <b>your dogs digging</b> is not. Your <b>dogs digging</b> is
not their attempt to annoy you, wind you up or simply ruin your new
flower garden out of spite.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Dogs </b>simply are not like that…(you’re thinking like a human)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Natural behavior
<b>
Dogs </b>are fun loving animals however and so many <b>dogs </b>will dig for fun.
Younger <b>dogs </b>and puppies especially simply love exploring,
investigating and having a good time in the soil, sand, mud, stones
etc…it really doesn’t matter to them.
Sometimes <b>dogs </b>are doing it for specific reasons, such as they are too
hot and are looking to dig into the cooler ground. Alternatively they
could be cold and looking to build a bit of a den. They could simply have
too much energy and are trying to channel it into something in which
case more exercise will certainly help.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
You need to cover off all these things before you simply start blaming
your <b>dog </b>as a naughty <b>dog</b>!
Smelly fertilizers
One of the biggest motivators for <i><u><b>dogs digging </b></u></i>is if you have sprinkled
some sort of fertilizer such as “blood and bone” or anything that has a
smelly element to it. This will drive your <b>dog </b>wild so be careful where you sprinkle your magic garden food.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Whilst we are on this topic be
very careful with slug pellets which can be deadly for <b>dogs</b>. Some
products on the market claim to be safe however if they do not say they
are then you can assume that they are deadly and so do not use them!
Now back to <b>the digging</b>…so once you have given your <b>dog</b> plenty of
exercise, removed any buried bones, stopped using smelly garden
products and given your <b>dog </b>a nice shelter to stay warm you start to ask
the question…</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“What now?”</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Well <b>digging </b>like I say is a very normal activity, however excessive
<b>
digging </b>is not. In other words, most <b>dogs dig </b>and the secret is not to
stop it but to work with your <b>dog </b>and manage their <b>digging</b>.
And don’t worry I shall explain how to stop any excessive <b>digging
</b>aswell.
<b>
Digging </b>pits
If you can focus your <b>dogs digging </b>into one area then you are halfway
there.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This can be done by creating a<b> clear digging pit</b>, possibly just a
few pieces of wood with a couple of nails….You could even start the
<b>
digging </b>with a spade! If you put a few toys in, bury them and encourage
your dog to dig in and maybe even bury a couple of tasty treats…just a
couple of times you will be amazed at how quickly your dog starts to
pay attention and get involved!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Once your <b>dog </b>understand that they are
ok to dig in one area but not in the middle of the lawn you are on your
way to success.
Holes in the lawn
But what about the holes in the lawn? I here you ask, well…
he best solution for holes that have started is to put a small brick or rock
at the bottom of the hole and wedge it in. Then bury it back in a pack
the earth in around it. Then if your <b>dog </b>tries to return to dig in that area
they will become stuck when they get to the rock. No fun for your <b>dog</b>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Most will give up. If they continue, I would walk over to them, guide
them back over to your <b>digging pit</b> and encourage them to dig. If they
keep going back to the lawn to dig, place them in timeout somewhere.
They will soon learn that they are not allowed to dig in the lawn.
<b>
Digging</b> when you are not there
One of the biggest problems that people have is <b>digging </b>when they
leave the property however the solution is quite simple. Rather than this
being a excessive energy problem or a <b>dog </b>who loves <b>digging </b>problem it is a pack leader issue.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
That’s right, your <b>dog </b>is <b>digging </b>most likely to try to escape the property
to find you. That is why so many <b>dogs </b>who dig when the owner is away
are <b>digging </b>around the base of the fence or gate. Owners will often say
to me “my <b>dog </b>never digs when I am home, only when I am away”
That’s right when you are home they relax and are happy, when you
leave they try to find you.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
They see it as their job to protect you and look after you. Many <b>dogs </b>will
simply become stressed when they are left and channel their stress into
<b>
digging</b>, anywhere. Destructive behavior such as chewing is the same
thing, they are simply stressed as they think that their job is to protect
and look after you.
Become the pack leader
In a nutshell you need to become the pack leader and then they will
relax when you are not around. Not only this but so many other issues
will also likely disappear when your <b>dog </b>understands that they are not in
charge.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
That’s right, Dan gives you a $1 trial of the site for 3 days just so you
can first see if you like it!
Becoming the pack leader using Doggy Dan’s method is not harsh or
difficult it is a very kind and gentle way of working with your <b>dog</b>.
It explains in some very simple steps exactly how to become the pack
leader and the site also has fantastic sections on both raising the
perfect puppy dog and stopping any unwanted behaviors.
Quite simply it is a fantastic site and one that I fully recommend you
take a look at.</div>

</tbody></table>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We all know somebody who’s got a dog that only listens when <b>food </b>is shown
to them. Or even worse a dog who simply doesn’t listen even when treats are
on offer. Maybe it's you and your dog?
Sometimes it really does seem like the only way to get your dog to listen to
you is to bribe them, and that just doesn’t feel right. Well the good news is that
it doesn’t have to be this way and the solution certainly isn’t complicated… as
you’re going to see.
Here’s four very simply tricks that I’ve picked up from leading dog trainer,
Doggy Dan, that make so much sense and have transformed my own way of
<u><b>training and motivating my dog.</b></u> I’ve seen this in action so I know it all works. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1. The Jackpot: </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The first secret is simply this… Dogs are far more motivated and excited by<u><b>
food rewards</b></u> when the size of the reward varies. In other words it's much
better to give your dog a couple of smaller treats followed by a big one than
just to give small ones all the time. I know it sounds so simple and yet I can
promise you that 95% of dog owners are giving their dog the same boring
treat every time!
That’s right, the surprise is everything! And here’s why…
How many times have you been more excited when you are told that you are
going to get a present than when you actually open it up and get the present!
Think about it. When people play the lottery and buy a ticket the excitement
builds as soon as you have your ticket… </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Then the excitement continues to
increase right up to the point when the numbers are announced. Then you
realize that you’ve NOT won the $24 Million Jackpot…maybe next time.
Still we buy a ticket the following week. Why?
Because we are holding out for the jackpot!
It's the small chance that we may win something really big that keeps people
buying tickets again and again. And it's the same for your dog. If you very
occasionally call your dog over and give him the biggest reward of his life they will remember if for a long time. <b>Your training</b> will probably go onto turbo boost
performance for many weeks.
Doggy Dan tells a story he calls the “The story of the magic sausage” about a
man who used to feed his dog off the BBQ. Not surprisingly his dog sat by it<i><b>
begging for food </b></i>every time that it was fired up. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The recommendation was
simply this… Never feed your dog from the BBQ, but later in the day, when
the BBQ is turned off and everything cleared away call your dog to you when
they are not expecting it. Then as soon as they arrive out of the blue give
them a whole sausage.
Your dog will look at you and think…“WOW. You can produce sausages out
of thin air!”
The magic sausage story is a great example of using a jackpot to motivate a
dog to another level. You will not need to use many to get them second
guessing every time you call them if it's going to be a big treat. The result:
They will be totally motivated and come running every time.
Of course a whole sausage may be too much if you only have a tiny dog but
you get the idea. This trick makes <u>the use of food</u> far more exciting, and
motivating for your dog than the old “one dry biscuit, one dry biscuit, one dry
biscuit” approach. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<h3>
2. What is even better to a dog than one big sausage? </h3>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now the second secret to using food to motivate your dog actually builds upon
secret number one which is the jackpot. That's where we use a whole
sausage as a reward.
Now I am actually going to suggest that you make that jackpot of one whole
sausage even more appealing to your dog. How could you possibly do that
without giving the dog two sausages I hear you ask!
The solution is this… </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Chop the sausage into a handful of nice pieces, maybe
5 or 6.
Now when your dog gets the Jackpot feed them into your dogs mouth, one
after another as if all their Christmas’ have come at once.
Your dog will not believe their luck. To them getting 5 or 6 pieces is far more
rewarding than getting one whole sausage which they probably will swallow in
a couple of mouthfuls.
So now you know the answer to the question what is even better to a dog
than a whole sausage? Answer: A whole sausage chopped into five or six
pieces… </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<h3>
3. Not all food is created equal: </h3>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Do you like Lemon Meringue pie best or Chocolate Pudding? Dogs, like
people, all have their favorite <b>food treats </b>and if you want your dog to perform
like a rock star then find out what spins their wheels!
There is a huge difference in performance between a dog who’s totally
motivated to win the reward compared to the same dog when they are only
half semi-interested. So often that motivation is directly related to whether you
are using the same dry biscuits that they ate for breakfast or some new
tasting ones.
But it's not just about dry biscuits! You should also think outside the square. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For example, does your dog love a large dog biscuits with some peanut butter
spread all over it, does chicken, sausage, bacon or cheese get them doing
cart wheels? You could also try some of the healthy manufactured treats.
Of course some of these fattier high end treats may not be especially good for
your dog in large quantities, so as with our own diet the volume needs to be
monitored. The flip side of this is that since these top end treats are not going
to be given out very often so you can actually afford to splash out a bit. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<h3>
4. Random rewards: </h3>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Most importantly is to keep in mind the end goal that you are going to fade the
<b>
food </b>treats out over time… until they become very random rewards. Don’t
forget!
So there you go. Four ways to maximize the use of <b>food </b>when <u><b>training your
dog</b></u>. If you have enjoyed these then you will just love Doggy Dan's approach
to <i>dog training</i>, especially when you actually see it all in action with his videos. </div>
