"It
is the human's
role in the
dog-owner
relationship to
teach the dog
how to behave
appropriately in
a world run by
humans. Far too
often, owners
seem
to assume that
dogs come
already
programmed with
good manners.
Then they become
frustrated &
angry when Rowdy
engages in a
behavior that,
to him, seems
perfectly
acceptable. If
we are ever to
make headway in
reducing the
seemingly
endless number
of dogs who end
up looking for
new homes in
shelter kennels,
it is critically
important that
we humans begin
to gain a more
realistic
perspective on
what it means to
be a dog." - Pat
Miller

The Importance of Puppy Socialization
From the very start, a puppy learns important lessons through his experience
of
the world around him. Even in the first few weeks as he snuggles with his
dam, wrestles with his littermates, and is handled by his breeder each day,
the personality traits and social skills that he will have all his life are
beginning to form.
As the weeks go by, exposure to a variety of experiences is crucial to his
becoming a well-rounded adult. Studies have shown that a puppy's experiences
in the first three months of life strongly influence what kind of companion
he will grow to be and how he will react to the world. Will he shy away from
children? Will he be afraid of people in hats? Will he be aggressive toward
other dogs? Or will he be easygoing and adaptable in a variety of
situations?

Dealing Dogs
Documentary
An animal rights outfit, Last Chance for
Animals, outraged that 42,000 dogs are sold to vet schools
and research labs by vile kennel keepers, sets out on one of
the most notorious: Martin Creek Kennel in Arkansas. It sent
in investigator "Pete" with a hidden camera for six months.
He worked for the owners and collected his sickening images
and commentated on the atrocities as he went. Many of
the dogs that ended up at this kennel had been stolen from
their own
backyards and sold. Not just
from Arkansas but in areas around St. Louis Mo and all
throughout the south.

On a lighter note:
|
Even though your dog can't read a word, he
could be destined to be the best teacher ever. You still have time
to check out
www.librarydogs.com and summer reading programs. If your dog is
gentle and good with children, he or she could qualify as a Reading
Therapy Dog for children who benefit from a nonjudgmental, patient
listener. Sure there could be some process to get certified, but any
lazy, canine with a good listening ear could make the cut. What a
brilliant accomplishment!

"Fun at the Beach"
 "Fun at
Work"
This is a real
combination of symptoms that spells out EMERGENCY. These are the classic
symptoms of a condition referred to as "bloat" - a dog that is pacing,
restless and has unproductive attempts to vomit.
This is a common problem in large breed
deep-chested dogs but can also occur in smaller dogs.
Basically what happens is this - the
stomach twists causing the blood supply to the stomach to be compromised
then leads to tissue death. As tissues are damaged, toxins are released
and a sequence of events occurs that if left untreated, leads to death.
If you ever notice these symptoms in
your dog, call your local veterinarian or emergency clinic as soon as
possible.
This is a condition that is fairly
common and often occurs in the evening or nighttime hours. It is also a
very expensive condition to treat.

GOT FLEAS?
Place a white baking dish half full of water with a
couple drops of Lemon Joy dishwashing liquid in the center of the room
with a small lamp next to it. Turn off all other lights and go to
bed. When you wake up in the morning all the fleas will be in the
baking dish! For a bad infestation treat each room twice.
Dealing with Excessive Barking
The first step to stopping barking is to understand why it is
happening. Dogs bark for all kinds of reasons, including
anxiety, boredom and/or loneliness. Sometimes they bark just
because it feels good. Luckily, most dogs will respond to
one or other intervention to curtail their barking. Whether you
simply bring an outdoor dog inside or take the time to apply
behavior-modification techniques, you can cause a dog to be less
of a nuisance and to be more socially acceptable. |
Removing Skunk Odor
|
|
No need for the tomato juice. Use a mixture of 10 parts hydrogen
peroxide to 1 part baking soda. Add a dash of degreasing
dishwashing soap and pour into a spray bottle. Spray liberally
over dry coat and allow to air dry. Avoid eyes. Works on other
objects, too! |

German Shepherd
Imports/Adults/Young Females for Sale
Unfortunately I am not in a position to keep as many dogs as
I have before and it breaks my heart. All of these
dogs are excellent and looking for good forever homes.
Some are more expensive than others due to the high cost of
their training titles
and hip and elbow certifications; meaning they are free of
hip and elbow dysplasia. |
