The best way is to adapt.

a couple of moments as The Amazing Puppy Wizard teaches

over the Whole Wild World who REPORT their NEARLY INSTANT

You and your mentally ill lying dog abusing punk thug
coward mental case pals call them LIARS and their posts
FORGERIES, diddler.

Take a multipronged approach.

INDEEDY!

The Amazing Puppy Wizard IDENTIFIES EXXXPOSES and DISCREDITS
you and your mentally ill dog abusing punk thug cowards with
every post you make.

You got a lot of nerve postin here abHOWETS you dog murderin
retard.

Assuming that he is digging just because he finds it fun

When dogs dig for FUN they seldom dig constantly and in different
places like a dog who's diggin as an anXXXIHOWESNESS
RELIEF MECHANISM, diddler.

the most effective solution is to give him a digging spot.

That's absurd, diddler. If the dog is diggin from ANXXXIHOWESNESS he
AIN'T gonna dig in a sand box
UNLESS you're standing there holding IT in the box.

Supervise his outdoors time so you
can redirect him to the correct spot.

Redirecting the behavior WILL NOT TRAIN the dog to
do it when HE wants to do it elsewhere, diddler.

THAT'S NOT an effective method to train ANY behavior.

Give the dog a sandbox.

BWEEEEEEEEEAAHAHAHAHHAHAAAA!!!

Then they have an assigned area to dig.

Yeah. Then you got to take the dog to the box
and ENFORCE that IT dig ONLY there. The dog will
ONLY dig there IF YOU FORCE HIM not to dig elsewhere.

You got NO method, diddler.

You're a dog abusing mental case.

Another is to use a dog safe yard insect killer.

BWEEEEEEEEAAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAAAAA!!!

You was tellin a other poster to use DIAZANON.
Diazanon has been taken off the market, REMEMBER
diddler?

Right now, there are tons of yummy grubs/pupae emerging
and the dogs love to dig them up.

That so? You PRESUME the OP lives in the same hemisphere you live in,
diddler.

Walk the dog elsewhere for a couple of days after yard
application. You will have fewer bugs as well as a dog
hole free yard.

You mean, ONLY if the dog is digging for bugs, diddler.
The dog can be TRAINED not to eat bugs in a couple of
moments, if you know HOWE, diddler. You don't, on accHOWENT
of you only know FEAR FORCE INTIMIDATION BRIBERY AVOIDANCE
and DEATH, diddler.

When you fill in the holes, put their own poop in them,
and give it a dose of capsacin before filling in.

Lots of dogs eat ****, diddler. Some of them will PREFER it
with a little pepper. NO SALT, diddler, dogs can't do salt.

And for good measure, add some chicken wire mesh just under
the surface.

That's sheer idiocy, diddler. A tiny dog can tear up chicken wire.

It will allow grass growth,

That so? You think chicken wire is grass food, diddler?

and eventually disintegrate after the dog has long learned
not to dig

What's gonna teach the dog not to dig in the yard, diddler?

except in their assigned sand box.

You mean, when you're standing there to ENFORCE it, eh diddler.

couple cats last summer while nuisance trapping an orchard,
but it wasn't intentional)

BUT IF YOU DO TRAP, DO IT RIGHT (The cat went nuts.... they
weren't supposed to go ape, to get themselves in this
situation).


"I run a state authorized and monitored nuisance
animal trapline. This morning there was a cat in a snare.
Ordinarily, an animal caught in a snare can be released
unharmed. One of the animals I am targeting is coyotes
(and the complaint was that coyotes were killing area cats)
Duh.. If your cats are becoming lunch for wild animals, to
me .. It makes sense to keep your cats in where they can't
become lunch.. whatever.

Regarding this cat in the snare. It went nuts. It leaped,
and tangled itself, and most certainly strangulated it's
intestines. It had the snare pulled tight down to the
diameter of a dime (just large enough to encircle the
spine) around the waist area. This cats snarled, and
attacked. Trying to extricate this cat was exceedingly
difficult, not to mention dangerous. Because I feared
damage to the intestines and death of the gut, I imagined
this cat was not likely to survive.

It would have been much simpler to dispatch the
unfortunate cat and take out the dead body. Instead,
this cat wore a collar. it deserved a chance, and the
owner deserved closure. (no id on the collar) . It
escaped, just as I released it and it couldn't be taken
to the vet for examination. I will probably never know
if this particular cat survives the experience or not.

Had that cat not been wearing a collar, I would not have
tried to release this hostile cat. Releasing it may not have
been a kindness, but then... cats weren't supposed to be
attracted to this type of trap, in this position, and then
they weren't supposed to go ape, to get themselves in this
situation. If you like your pet, you keep them home."

Two nights ago, Reka started acting frantic about 11pm.
I let her out. It's coyote breeding season, and she is
fascinated by them. I assumed she wanted to go out and
listen to them howling. I brought her in, and she spent
the night franticly and desperately demanding to go out.

After about 4am, I finally put her in the barn, locked
securely in a horse stall for the night.

She came in by morning, and had a normal active, playful
day. Last night, at 11pm, She franticly DEMANDED to go
out. I let her out, and brought her in. At midnight, she
DEMANDED to be let out. I let her out, but I went out
to the barn and got a crate, and decided she could
spend the rest of the night in the crate. We were NOT
going to do a repeat of the previous night AGAIN.

At 3am, she whined so loudly, I then decided not to
allow her to set a precedence of this type of behavior.
So I took her crate out to the heated gun shop and
decided to let her act out her bad behavior in peace,
and send a message that her obnoxious behavior
was not going to be tolerated.

This morning at 6am, I went out, and she had vomited
(normal looking dog food) and defecated in her crate
(not normal for Reka, but then, She normally didn't
sleep in a crate, NEVER gets corrected (she never does
anything to GET corrected for) and was probably nerves
from the outside experience, plus reprimand and solitary
confinement.)

I let her in the house while I cleaned the cage. Hoping
I had made my point. She acted healthy and normal, and
playful and chipper. But then I noticed a spot of blood on
the bathroom linoleum and in the bathtub. I was the last to
take a bath, so I knew REKA was the last in the tub.

That blood didnt come from me, so it HAD to come from
Reka. Thinking about her nearing the end of her heat cycle,
I still didnt think a lot about it. I thought her obnoxious
behavior the past couple nights WAS her heat cycle..
and corresponding coyote breeding season.

Then while feeding her breakfast, I saw the whole story.
She had blood (fresh) streaming from her RECTUM. UhOh.

I had her at the vets office this morning before he
opened. He just said her intestines were all bunched
up with huge air pockets.

Was there any chance that she ate strings of carpets? I
said, last Thursday we took a plastic tarp out of the yard
that we had over the grill to protect it from the weather
because she was chewing it. That would explain
EVERYTHING.

The strings are binding and bunching up her intestines,
cutting her internally and tying her intestines in knots as
it works its way through.

Reka is in a very critical situation. She is going to
require extensive and expensive surgery that I cant
afford. I will manage.

Even with the surgery, her condition will be critical
for awhile. Scary thoughts. I would never have
treated her the way I did last night, if I had even a
clue that she was sick. I feel so badly.

Actually, I borrowed the vets office kitten once for a
couple days for school education on pet care and safe
handling as well as responsible pet ownership.

I kept the kitten over night in a crate within a crate
and yet my dog (yes, Angelic Danny, as well as Taya
and Toby tore that kittne to threads from between the
crate bars. (apparently he stuck his paws through the
crate to bat at the dogs. I was out doing yard work
and rushed in to find the little kittens pieces and
parts being torn through by ALL the dogs.

I called my girl friend to come get my dogs. I screamed
displeasure, and stalked out with the kitten. Danny, et
al spent 3 days in a kennel until I finally felt like I
could interact with them without doing bodily harm. All
three dogs were never touched, but knew they had done
something so unspeakable that I wouldn't associate with
them and they got banished.

To this day, Taya (mom and Dad's dog) and Danny will not
look at a cat. When confronted with one, Danny wees
himself and cowers hiding behind me for help. I'm not
saying this would work this way with all dogs, But mom
and dad now have a house cat, and she has never been
harmed by any of the dogs. Danny is there all the time,
unsupervised, and has no interest in harming the cat.

diddler on fence / perimeter training:

"I admit our system fails occassionally"

We have a beagle. Before we got our last one, we knew what
to expect and spent a year re-enforcing the fence.

"I admit our system fails occassionally"

What we did.

"I admit our system fails occassionally"

Double fencing, hardware cloth lined on the inside. Wood
ties under gates. A chicken wire apron extending out into
the yard 12 inches. (hog ringed to the upright fencing).
We chose chicken wire because it was flexible and ground
conforming. grass grows right over it, making it invisible
and easy to mow over. It's tacked down by tent stakes
every 10 inches. (this is our most considerable investment)

"I admit our system fails occassionally"

The problems with it is that it eventually disintegrates,
rusts, pulls apart and need repair a lot. We placed tile
blocks over the top, because the tent stakes stick up, and
sometimes get hit by the lawnmower.

"I admit our system fails occassionally"

Overall, it's a pretty decent system and works MOST of the
time.

"I admit our system fails occassionally"

The beagle is persistent, and tends to work the inner
fencing, that's flimsy down, or tear it, making exit holes.
We recently cut down a couple yard trees that broke down
sections of the fence and they need re-enforcement.

"I admit our system fails occassionally"

When the weather breaks, a whole new fence is in order,
but the system works MOST of the time.

"I admit our system fails occassionally"

We did install an underground perimeter E-fence at the fence
line, and found a single strand 12 inch high electric cattle
fence around the perimeter was just as effective, cheaper,
less bothersome (no need to wear heavy e-collars..
especially that mess up coats), but both needed occassional
maintenence.

"I admit our system fails occassionally"

What we did.

"I admit our system fails occassionally"

I admit our system fails occassionally, especially when snow
drifts are over the top of the fences and erase any
identifiable fenceline.

"I admit our system fails occassionally"

We installed (BEFORE getting the beagle) a 100 foot trolly
line that crosses the yard.

"I admit our system fails occassionally"

This is a safe, effective restraint system that has always
worked when immediate repairs or extra security is desired.

If I go away and leave the beagle outside. He goes to the
trolly line, whether the containment system is currently
working or not.

"I admit our system fails occassionally"

It's great for emergency situations, and the $17 last resort
system gets used for the beagle far more than I ever
expected. It still allows reasonable exercise range of area
and mobility. The elkhounds and the beagle still play
avidly, and it's the cheapest piece of mind security ever.

"I admit our system fails occassionally"

A trolly tether system is the best for temporary containment
while discovering where the leak is. In the snow, it's easy
to discover the leak. In the summer, it's more difficult.

"I admit our system fails occassionally"

I do not like, or use our current underground collar system

"I admit our system fails occassionally"

one time intrusion. We are desperate to find these
dogs....Please, if you have any information, contact the
e-mail address at the bottom of the note. Thank you for
your understanding.........

Karyl Parks' dog Danny - Ch. Alpha's Decorum (I think that
is his correct registered name) is missing . For those
that have never met Danny - he is very special. Both
trained for Search and Rescue as well as service dog
trained, CDX, etc. He does all the things that service
dogs do from opening doors, turning on lights, getting
clothes and shoes. He is a marvel. He is nine years old
but does not show his age - he is about 60 pounds 22 1/2
inches, dark face. By tomorrow I will have a picture
available.

Monday night he was put out to do his business along with
Taya another elkie. At 10:00pm - both he and Taya were
gone from Karyl's yard. She heard nothing and the gate
was open but opened inward. Danny was neutered in the last
year so is not of any use to anyone for breeding.

Karyl has handed out over 1,200 flyers today - gone to the
schools where Danny was well known - he did demonstrations,
talked to neighbors

and combed the neighborhood. She lives in farm country
outside Greenville, Ohio.

Danny is a tall elkie - very handsome - microchipped. I
am looking for a picture I took when he visited here two
years ago. He was not wearing a collar when lost. Karyl
will talk to postal workers, garbage truck drivers, county
road crews, meter readers, tomorrow - has already contacted
law enforcement and shelters. Please for anyone in the area
or who can cross post this to other lists do it. This dog
is Karyl's life and she can not imagine life without him.

Taya - also an elkhound her parents dog - spayed female five
years old. Small size - I think only about 18 inches. They
could be together or separate - Taya did have a collar on.
Do not know if she is microchipped.

Karyl's email is

Thank you for your understanding......we're posting this to
every list we are involved with and pray for their safe
return.

Hey Tobias!
I just sent some of my husband's trap line catches to
http://www.wild-about-trapping=AD.com

I didn't get all his catch so far this year. In fact, I
didn't get most. So far he's had 14 beaver (largest ohio
beaver weighing in at 75 pounds, smallest at 35 pounds,
and the average about 45 pounds), 10 coyotes, 4 red fox, 3
muskrats, 38 raccoon, 1 mink. Fur Prices are WAY down,
and he sold those wonderful beaver for $8 apeice from the
raw fur buyer.

coyotes pay $3 a piece for raw furs. Raccoons $.50 a piece.
Hardly worth doing, but he's got to do SOMETHING or sitting
around the house with me would drive him stir crazy. grin
I love seeing what he brings home, and even helping him (or
even actually running) his trap line with/for him.

Now when TrapperKD, Webmaster of wild-about-trapping.com
posts them, you can see somewhat the difference between ohio
Red Fox and German Reds. Also posted a Coyote too, i think

and it had been shot at by MANY of the neighbors,
but it never frightened it off enough to keep it from
NOT tearing up the road the next trash day)

DIDDY AND THE DOBERMAN WHO BLED TOO MUCH for her OWN GOOD

It's explained on the AKC website. And I'm very sorry to
hear this. I too had a dog that I wanted to finish


Oh, here's one you finished alright, you finished her real
good because she made you late for work after you cut her
ears off.

There is a detailed explanation of the pain side of things

lead for my scanner [hopefully today], would you like me to
e-mail it to you so you have the veterinary
view of it ?

I someone crops ears, I feel it's for hygenic methods
as well as aesthetics. I'm not saying cropping is not
painful, taking two dobermans through cropping (one with
von Willebrawns.. and THAT was ugly -- and I finally put her
to sleep at one year old because I kept coming home from
work finding my house in a bloodbath every time I came home
from work, and was told I was going to get fired for
absentee if I continued to miss work in the afternoons after
coming home for lunch, and having to run the dog to the vet.
The mental stress of dealing with such a dog was unreal,
dealing with the unknowns of what she was going to do next
(tear a nail, puncture herself, bruise herself.. the
emergencies she created for herself were unreal)She also
kept catchingher dew claws on things, and I finally had them
removed.
