Teaching "heel" and what it means by
Paul E. Schoen[_4_]
There may be some tips and methods to teach a dog to "heel" in the other
thread but it has gone so far off-topic and has so many exchanges of
unpleasantries that I think a new topic is appropriate. I posted some links
to videos there and I'll repeat them he

I was sitting in my living room playing on the computer a few minutes ago.
Tuck was asleep by my feet. I thought I heard something in the kitchen. I
thought nothing of it, thinking it was a dog moving around. (Duh.. Tuck was
asleep at my feet, and Reka is in Cincinnati with her co-owner this...

Reinforcement off leash by
Sharon Delarose[_2_]
Now that Sierra knows sit, stay, and come (among others) the goal is to
work those three in particular hard especially off leash under
distraction. I've been working with her every day both indoors and out
to reinforce those. Treats and/or praise is involved when she does well.

What would you do? by
Chris
So, okay. In my recovery from losing Mac, I left the shelter for
several days. In my absence, a member of the 'Dog Welfare Committee"
brought in a traditional trainer to deal with Mongo, a big, exuberant,
Rottie/mix puppy. He dragged Mongo from his run, and, when Mongo bit
him, slipped on a...

Chew Toys for Yellow Labs (or larger dogs) by
Candy
I was wondering if anyone who has a yellow lab or large dogs has any
recommendations for good chew toys. We've given our dog various toys
that are supposedly for "strong chewers," but she gets through them
right away. Recently we've found a good nylabone, but she gets bored
of it rather easily. I...

rheatoomuch
Hi all
My 8 month old (labradoodle) puppy Eddie loves to eat fruit so I
always given him a little bit when I eat some(Peach, apple, cherries).
He's never reacted badly(i.e diarrhea or gas) but today I gave him 1/2
a banana and he has been farting continuously.
Anyone else have any similar...

Need help naming puppy - we give up! by

Ok...we are stuck. I think we have looked through at least 100 dog
name lists, baby name lists, but we can not find a name that suits his
face.
We have one dog named Sophie already - so my husband wants a name that
does not end with a "y" sound.
Any suggestions
What name does this face say to...

TazLab safety stretch collar, free Muttley, and EZ Walk harness by
Paul E. Schoen[_4_]
I was looking on-line for a good deal on an Easy-Walk harness for Muttley,
and came across this collar. It is made so that it will stretch if not
hooked to a leash, so the dog can pull out of it in a life-threatening
situation such as getting it caught on a fence. It looks like it has two
rings...

Dilemma by

ELB called last night to tell me that his house was broken into. SIL is
really freaked out, and I can't say I blame her. They took her laptop
(a gift from her father who can't really afford it), and a crucifix her
grandmother gave her. Their spare key was missing, and they later found
it outside...

In defense of Leah and her LLW...
I believe Leah's experiences with using training collars for heel/LLW are
drawn from limited experience with some very poor trainers in our area.

have observed using training collars...
