The two most important commands your dog should know!
As I have stressed throughout my website and in other articles I have written “Safety” is the driving force behind these two commands.

If you think about this seriously you will see that there is a far more basic reasoning than obedience, its “Safety”.
Dog Training Guide On Debarking Surgery
Filed Under Pets | Posted on March 1, 2008
One of the most controversial subjects in the field of dog training is the question of debarking surgery. Debarking surgery is a procedure designed to minimize the volume of a dog’s bark. It is generally used by those with dogs who have both a loud bark and a tendency to bark incessantly. The procedure is most commonly used on very loud larger dog breeds. Shetlands and collies, for instance, make up a large percentage of those dogs subjected to the surgery.The procedure generally requires the use of a general anesthesia and involves punching, cutting or otherwise manipulating the tissue around a dog’s vocal chords to soften or significantly reduce his ability to bark.

Filed Under Pets | Posted on February 28, 2008
You see it everywhere there is a pet dog — scratch marks on the door, chewed edges of otherwise-perfectly-good rugs, holes dug in lawns (and flower beds!) and holes in furniture covers. All these are signs that the dog is in control of the home. That he’s a restive, lively pet who has never learned where the boundaries are. And you can be sure the owner suddenly goes on edge every time their canine friend comes near a well-frayed carpet or sofa cover.
It’s a common problem. Can it be stopped?

Filed Under Pets | Posted on February 26, 2008
Who said that “the dog is man’s best friend” didn’t talk nonsense, and the saying is old enough to confirm its value of truth: not only is the dog a reliable friend and a playful giddy presence, but if passed through the “fire” of a guide dog training, he can become the only support a person with disabilities has, when going out, helping them and teaching them in return how to live. The experts that transform the animals into indispensable professionals are very patient and have different special methods to do so. Certain dogs have become famous in the industry of film-making, in police- the capture of wrongdoers and the finding of narcotics –have guided blind people out of their homes for the first time and so on. These are the heroes of the species, and they need a far more complicated method of training than the usual.
