Local kook reborn, or competition?
Oh my goodness! This turned up (NOT endorsed or recommended!) on my Danes
forum today. Seems oddly familiar, if slicker and more professional.... I don't believe it's the same person--in fact, it contradicts some of our local nut's claims, and the spelling and grammar is MUCH better than his manual--but are we going to start seeing a lot of these folks now? As to the claims... hmmm. Don't buy it. OK, it's true that Danes train differently to other dogs. It's true that they respond to a conversational approach for giving commands. But without using this guy's system, my Dane is already, as he claims to be able to make her, "so well trained my friends are jealous"... but of course that's partly because she IS a Dane and although far from settled into perfect behavior by any means is better-behaved than other puppies often are at 5 1/2 months, and also in part due to the fact that most of my neighbors don't really seem to have a clue about training and let their dogs drag them around and stuff. Any moderately well trained dog (just the basics) would have them jealous. The rest just doesn't wash with me--"special mental triggers" that operate a Dane like "remote control"? "Hard-wired" for obedience? Nah! Anyway, just had to share the new nut-system ad with everyone! Here's the URL: http://dogism.com/n/Great_Dane.php |
