DOG OBEDIENCE TRAINING
+++++++++++++++++++++++++

MAKE THE PUPS KNOW WHO’S IN CHARGE
—————————————

Do you wish there was a way of teaching them not to do those things? Travelling on your whim sometimes, do you wish there were a language exclusively for you and your pup so that he can fully understand your complains?.

HUNTING THE RIGHT HOUND
—————————————

Generally, sturdier, active dogs love kids, but unless your dog is well-trained, he may pose a risk to your children. Due to some unscrupulous breeders and unmindful owners, a few breeds within the terrier group have developed rather notorious reputations. A diverse group skilled in a number of disciplines, most working breeds are robust, intelligent and headstrong, often unsuitable for apprentice owners. A retired racer should be tested with small children or other pets, as some of these dogs make a habit of chasing them as they have chased mechanical rabbits in their earlier career. Saluki and pharaoh hounds, in particular, can trace their origins back to antiquity. The Akita (Japan), the Komondor (Hungary), the Portuguese water dog, the Newfoundland, the Saint Bernard (Switzerland), the Alaskan Malamute, the Bernese Mountain dog (Switzerland) and many more make this group a veritable United Nations of dogs. These breeds generally and originally assisted hunters in the field with either excellent scenting abilities or incomparable speed. Images of dogs closely resembling these breeds are depicted on the walls of the tombs of the Egyptian pharaohs. Combining the taut muscles and compact power of the bulldog with the tenacity and aggressiveness of the terrier, some controversial bull terrier breeds have been involved in some highly publicized biting incidents, several involving small children. This is the list of dog Herding Breeds according to The American Kennel Club:Australian Cattle Dog, Australian Shepherd, Bearded Collie, Beauceron, Belgian Malinois, Belgian Sheepdog, Belgian Tervuren, Border Collie, Bouvier des Flandres Briard, Canaan Dog, Cardigan Welsh Corgi, Collie, German Shepherd Dog, Old, English Sheepdog, Pembroke Welsh Corgi, Polish Lowland Sheepdog, Puli, Shetland Sheepdog, Swedish Vallhund. A pampered, yet surprisingly active companion today, it once was a skilled truffle hunter. The millions of mixed-breed dogs around the world are a testament to that. For best results, choose from known kid-friendly breeds such as Golden or Labrador retriever, boxer, beagle, West Highland white terriers or Shetland sheepdogs. Motivated by rising inner-city crime rates and by the rather twisted notion that owning a powerful dog somehow enhances one’s social standing, all too many people have invested a lot of money in acquiring one of these dogs, but sometimes nothing can convince some of these dogs that not all strangers, especially children, pose a threat. But despite what those who breed and sell crossbreeds might try to tell you, these are not, nor will they likely ever be, recognized as purebred dogs.

THE ANATOMY OF A CANINE
—————————————

Like all mammals, the canid family is able to control body temperature through various physical functions. Paws. They – and a large common pad in the center – act as shock absorbers. Even the size of a canid’s ears plays a part in temperature control. A small stopper pad, located higher up on the back of the leg, provides a better grip for walking or running on slick surfaces. Canids also rely on their coats to control body temperature. All dog paws are the same, although there are variations in shape depending on the breed’s digital bones. Canids, including domestic dogs, have 42 teeth, although there are a few exceptions:The bat-eared fox has 48. Rose Ears. The arctic fox, on the other hand, has minuscule ears to minimize the effects of the frigid weather in its northern homeland. As omnivores, canids need a variety of specialized teeth to eat the different types of foods in their varied diets.

german shepherd dogs
how do i prevent our dogs (german shepherd) from digging our plants and everything in our yard?

we have three dogs, a mini pin and two german shepherds. the female shepherd is already two years old and quite behaved, the male, a young 9 month old, is so hyper. he has been digging around the yard; eating my plants, and gnawing on everything. i tried giving him all sorts of toys to nibble but he eventually gets back to my plants. please help :-)

I have a German Shepherd who is also a digger. I had to put down chicken wire (flat on the ground) to keep her from turning my backyard into a moonscape.
My husband thought I was crazy, but it was the only thing that worked.

German Shepherd Dogs

German Shepherd dogs are one of the most intelligent breeds of dog. They are a solid, sturdy and very muscular dog. Their strength and agility, combined with their superior mental capacity, allow them to be trained in many special areas of expertise.

German Shepherds have been the dog of choice for police and military operatives around the globe for many years. They have been trained and used for sniffing out bombs and explosives with their very acute sense of smell. They have been used for sniffing out illegal drugs and other contraband from places it shouldn’t be. German Shepherds have saved countless lives of people in countless situations in just about every region of the world.

The German Shepherd is the dog most used and trained as a “Service Dog” that serve as a set of eyes for blind people. They have given otherwise home bound persons with epilepsy or severe diabetic disorders, a renewed sense of independence, by being able to sense when their master is about to have a seizure. They can alert the owner in advance, allowing enough time for preventative measures, or medication that will halt the seizure, to be administered. Lately they have been trained to be companions to autistic children, as to help with their development and confidence. These alliances have had the results characterized as nothing short of a miracle.

If you are planning on getting a dog, especially if you are handicapped (in any number of ways), a German Shepherd would be an excellent choice. Just remember that training must start from the point they are taken away from the mother at birth. Make sure you choose the breeder from where you get the dog wisely and avoid a “Puppy Mill” at all costs.

Service dogs are specially bred, and must be hand picked from a group of dogs that show superior intelligence. After being carefully chosen, the pup then moves on to a year or so of rigorous training, before being matched up with a new, compatible handicapped owner. There are so many different things that a German Shepherd can be trained to do, that if you were to get a puppy, you would probably be confused on where to start. Make sure that you get a good, comprehensive and in depth book, specializing in German Shepherds, to be your guide.

German Shepherd Sickness

german shepherd sickness
dog sickness question?

I have a 5 month old German Shepherd puppy. Tonight I took him to my warehouse when I was doing some work. On my way back he threw up in the back of my cargo van. I think it is just the motion and noise the van makes, he is fine in my SUV. I have a 2 hour trip to the breeders house tomorrow and don’t have time to stop by the vets. Is there anything I can get for him that will help with that? Will he grow out of it?

You may want to try :::
Found this online—
Static grounding strap – A final remedy for carsickness. It works for pets and people – guaranteed. Attach a rubber strip to the bottom of the car. It must be long enough to hang on the ground, eliminating the static electricity while driving. I took a bungee cord. It works like magic.

I know people who give their pets Dramamine around an hour before they are to leave but you need to check with your vet first b4 doings this you must get the right dosage please do not try to dose on your own.

Also do not feed or give any water for 2 or more hours yu want nothing on their belly b4 a car ride. Also lots of air helps keep a window open or windows but not down enough your dog could junp out but enough to get just his head or nose out.

Hope this helps

Bloat Do You Know How To Spot This Common Dog Ailment?

Dog Bloat is a sickness that strikes millions of dogs without warning each year. It moves fast and without the proper diagnosis and treatment many dogs die.  The problem with dog bloat is that most dog owners do not know what symptoms to look for or how to respond if their dog visibly has symptoms.  This is an absolutely horrific and painful way to die, so join us as we discuss what bloat is and how you can learn to recognize and respond to the symptoms.

Bloat begins by causing an excessive amount of gas to build up in the stomach.  This causes the stomach to twist itself 180 degrees around and even a full 360 degrees from the esophagus down to the bottom of the stomach.  What this does is stop the blood flow to that part of the body and causes the tissue to die off.

This is where identifying the symptoms becomes crucial and demands timeliness.  Many specific breeds are known to have a bigger risk at developing bloat. Often they are larger breeds such as German Shepherds, Bloodhound, Great Dane, Akita, St. Bernard, Golden Retriever, Irish Setter and Doberman.

You may be thinking dog bloat is something that will never occur with your dog but statistics clearly show that bloat is the second leading cause of dog deaths and is second only to cancer!

There are many symptoms that may appear with bloat, so you will have to be diligent in observing you dog.  Start by looking for restlessness and anxiety.  Look to see if they are vomiting or have the dry heaves or even if they are attempting to vomit.  Are they whining, drooling, swollen abdomen, no digestive sounds or rumbling of the stomach?  Monitor their breathing for difficulty, increased heart rate and any weakness or collapsing.

Other factors that can influence dog bloat are your dogs age.  Older dogs tend to be more susceptible.  Underweight dogs, dogs that are hyper or anxious or dogs that are aggressive in nature are often prone to developing bloat.  So if a dog eats to fast or they skip a meal they potentially are more likely to develop dog bloat.  It is suggested that you spread their meals out to two or three small meals a day.

I personally believe in free feeding if it’s done correctly. A dog that is allowed to eat what they naturally need from the very beginning and is given a good quality food source will not overeat or eat like they are starving because they know the food source is always there for them to access. There is no need for them to pig out and eat it all in one setting when they can come back later and eat if they need to. I do want to point out that this does not work for all dogs and you may need to pick the bowl up if your dog overeats.

As we discussed above, if your dog has symptoms, you absolutely have to get them to the vets immediately.  Treating the dog bloat is the only chance at saving their life.  To treat the bloat, your vet will start by inserting a tube into the wall of the stomach.  This removes the excess gas.  After the gas is removed, the vet finishes operating on the stomach and untwisting it.

Should the dog continue to show signs of bloat following the surgery, then a second set of treatment procedures will be started.  These start with treating the shock symptoms your dog displays by hydrating them and allowing them to rest and treating any other complications that may pop up.

Because Doctors and Scientist have not actually come up with the exact cause of dog bloat, it is impossible to prevent.  However, since we do know some facts, you can implement a few prevention techniques.  Do not overfeed your dog or allow them to overeat in a single setting.  If your dog continues to overeat, then start giving them smaller amounts of food 2 or 3 times a day.

They do not recommend using elevated food or watering dishes and you should be adding enzyme supplements to your dog’s food to assist with digestion.  Limit their water intake right after they are finished eating.  Always keep your local veterinarian’s phone number hand and current for emergencies.

There is really nothing you can do to prevent bloat except to educate yourself and watch for the symptoms.  Then you will know how to diagnose and react should your dog ever begin to exhibit signs of bloat.

REMEMBER – Do NOT wait to get treatment for your dog!  This is the precious window of time that can save your dog’s life.  This is not the time to debate whether or not you want to pay for that vet call.  Acting promptly can save your dog’s life.

I love to include stories about my spoiled rotten pups – you never know what antics they’ll pull next! We also have two all but grown beautiful teenage daughters that we love very much. Although they don’t spend much time with us anymore, so we have to depend on the dogs to fulfill our parenting needs! lol

Dog Adoption Agencies in NYC or NJ?

I went to:
Save a Pet Animal Rescue

Is there any other one that is good and allows to adopt becuase the one above didn’t let me because apparently I wouldn’t have time when I work only 5 hours a day Mon-Fri…

Is there any good large place that has a variety of dogs/puppies… in particular looking for German Shepherd / Hound Mix…

I remember you asked similar question before saying that North Shore turned you down for a dog. The reason you are giving here is not legit. Shelters and adoption agencies don’t have a problem with people working 5 hours a day. The problem is you and the fact that the dog that you own is not neutered, spoiled and not trained (according to your previous posts your training method is spanking). So, no adoption agency or shelter will give you a dog until you become responsible. I have worked at North Shore and I processed adoptions, so I know why people get rejected, don’t try to make up excuses.

i already have a white german shepherd male, should i get a husky or another shepherd for my female?

i am getting another dog, but i don’t think i want ANOTHER german shepherd, i like to change things up, i know i want a girl. but should i get a solid black german shepherd or a siberian husky?
wouldn’t a siberian husky/german shepheerd be a really good mix?

If you mean would a GSD and husky be a good choice for 2 pets, then yes, they would get on well as they have similar drives, are similar in size and temperament.
However, if you mean to bred them, then no. There are 2 many mixed breeds around today already, and husky/GSD mixes are one of the more common ones.

The pom likes to play and the border collie doesn’t tolerate it very long. But it’s getting better every day.

I’m sure you can mix and match those two breeds. Your shepherd needs to be well adjusted first. Make sure your shepherd knows you are the boss and the dogs will be your pack. Check out Cesar Milans latest book if you don’t know what I’m talking about. Good luck.

Jessica Biel Celebrity Biography

Name : Jessica Biel

Birth Date : March 3, 1982

Birth Place : Ely, Minnesota, USA

Birth Name : Jessica Claire Biel

Height : 5′ 7”

Education : Private Tutor on set of 7th Heaven; Private School when not working; Tufts University in Medford, Massachusetts

Profession : Actress

Claim to fame : as Mary Camden in 7th Heaven TV Series (1996-2000)

Years active : 1996-present

Jessica Claire Biel (born March 3, 1982)[1] is an American actress and former model, who has appeared in several Hollywood films, including Summer Catch, the remake of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, The Illusionist and I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry. She is also known for her television role as Mary Camden in the long-running family-drama series 7th Heaven.
Early life Born Jessica Claire Biel in Ely, Minnesota, to Kimberly Biel (n?Conroe), a homemaker, and Jon Biel, an entrepreneur. She has a younger brother, Justin, born in 1985. Biel has German, English, French, Irish, and Choctaw lineage[2] Biel’s family moved frequently during her childhood, living in Texas, Connecticut and Woodstock, Illinois, before finally settling in Boulder, Colorado.
Jessica Biel, with her striking good looks and wide range of talent, has become one of Hollywood’s most sought-out actresses. Her television series acting debut on the WB’s #1-rated show, “7th Heaven” (1996), has helped her emerge as a breakout star.

As a child Jessica initially pursued a career as a vocalist, performing in musical theater. Beginning at age nine, she starred in such productions as “Annie,” “The Sound of Music,” and “Beauty and the Beast.” A natural beauty, Jessica soon turned to modeling and commercial work by competing in The International Modeling and Talent Association’s Annual Conference in 1994.

After completing a year and a half of college at Tufts University in Medford Massachusetts, Jessica plans on going back to school in California for the remainder of her college years. In her spare time, she is involved with charities such as Best Friends Animal Sanctuary and PETA. Her hobbies include ballet, soccer, running, yoga and hiking with her dog “East.” Jessica currently resides in Los Angeles.

Born in Ely, Minnesota, and raised in Boulder, Colorado, Jessica Biel has paid her dues in the Hollywood scene. A breakout star as Mary Camden on the WB’s highest rated show, “7th Heaven” (1996), Jessica still manages to make a few appearances per season, even though she has left the show, in the midst of an exploding film career. Last fall she excited and terrified moviegoers with her portrayal of Erin, “Leatherface’s” greatest nemesis to date, in New Line Cinema’s The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003), a remake of the famous original. Having finished filming, Blade: Trinity (2004) in Vancouver with Wesley Snipes, Ryan Reynolds, and Kris Kristofferson, she has recently transported her toned and trained body of a vampire hunter/killer to Australia to fill the uniform and project the integrity of one of filmdom’s first female jet-fighter pilots in Columbia/Sony Pictures new film, Stealth (2005), starring Josh Lucas, Jamie Foxx, and Sam Shepherd, for director Rob Cohen.

Jessica’s film career began at age 14 when she played alongside Peter Fonda in his Golden Globe-winning performance in Ulee’s Gold (1997). Her other film credits include I’ll Be Home for Christmas (1998), Summer Catch (2001), Roger Avary’s The Rules of Attraction (2002), and the recently completed Cellular (2004), which stars Chris Evans, Kim Basinger, and William H. Macy. Few people know that this powerhouse of acting talent and versatility has a secret talent that has been put on hold for the past eight years, but surfaced last fall when she was offered lead roles on Broadway in “Rent” and “Beauty and the Beast.” Demands from her film career took precedence, but hopefully, one of these days soon, we will get to experience just another aspect of this fascinating young woman.

German Shepherds – Some of the Most Loyal Canine Friends

We live in a world where making friends has become a truly difficult thing and keeping one’s friends is not exactly an easy task to accomplish. People surround us all the time and, still, most of us feel alone. Friendship is one of the most beautiful things that we have and, if we are too busy to make friends or to keep contact with our old ones, we can always have a man’s best friend. Dogs are always there when we need companionship and they will never stop being our best friends.

The German Shepherd dog has existed as a distinct breed for ninety years and its ancestors were sheepherding and farming dogs from Germany. The German Shepherd is a middle-sized dog, usually weighing 75-95 pounds. Nowadays, the German Shepherds represent an appreciated breed due to their courage, loyalty and numerous abilities. However, if you consider this breed of dog for your family, you should be aware of the fact that they need love, attention and guidance.

German Shepherds represent one of the most popular and cherished breeds of dogs, due to the fact that they are intelligent, agile and very active. German Shepherds are also large, strong and very faithful. Although most people know that German Shepherds are black and tan, few are aware of the fact that these dogs come in a variety of colors and patterns, such as black and red, black and brown, black and silver, black and cream and blue and ten. These dogs represent ideal companions, watchdogs and guardians.

Before buying your puppy, it is important to do some research concerning puppy breeders. The most important thing is to buy a healthy puppy, from a breeder who is interested in finding a proper home for the puppy and who can provide you certification about its parents. Take a very good look at the puppy before buying it. Make sure it has a proper weight, it is clean and it does not smell, and that it appears to be friendly and playful. Another important thing is to test the puppy, see if it suffers from hip, and elbow dysplasia, which is a very common disease.

If you are considering purchasing a German Shepherd puppy, you should not think twice about it. German Shepherd puppies are very sociable and they need your attention and patience. They are excellent family dogs because they are friendly to all members of the household.

Of course, it does happen most of the times for them to have a favorite person. German Shepherd puppies will begin to be aware of their family after five or six months of age. Raising a puppy with young children will be an effort for the parents, but one that is worth making. The German Shepherd puppies will grow side by side with your children and become their best friends.

The German Shepherd puppy will bond with your family and will become a loyal friend. German Shepherd puppies have a good nature, although they need firm training. The training of your puppy is of utmost importance and it will last a lifetime.

Choosing a puppy requires a lot of research, time and effort, but few dogs have the qualities of a German Shepherd. If you choose such a dog, you can be certain that you will not regret your choice. They make one of the best picks from among the friendly canine beings.

My dog looks like a small german shepherd, what could his mix be ?

He has the exact face of a german shepherd but about 1/4 of a shepherd’s size.

Maybe an Australian Shepherd…18-23 inches in height and weighs around 40+ pounds

Training German Shepherd: What You Need

When it comes to training German shepherd, no one will be able to compare the results that experts can achieve. While this may indeed appear such an impossible feat for you to accomplish, there are still methods and techniques that you will be able to do on your own. Of course nothing will be able to compare to the pride that you will feel knowing that it’s through your hard work that your pet is obedient. Not only that, your pet will have this stronger sense of bond because it is through you that he was able to learn all of what he knows.

But training your pet is not easy. You will need the help of established techniques as well as the right information and tools in hand to help you out in this venture. For this, you will probably want to try a few things. Asking a knowledgeable friend for example will yield valuable results that can go a long way in your pet’s training. The problem is; what if you don’t have that type of friend?

You’d probably be finding yourself in a slump just about now. You very well know that fetching a stick is not the only trick that your German shepherd will need in order to become not only a lovable companion but also a loyal protector. No amount of toys or training materials will be enough if you do not have the proper information in hand.

Looking for information? Then the internet might just be the key to your problems. But where will you be able to find such in depth information that will help you in each step of the way? Well, admittedly, not every site will be able to offer you this. Sure, information will be right in front of your face, the problem that it will be insufficient to supply you with the data that you need in order to get through the entire training program. Need a better option? Start looking up on the available training e-books online. Sure you will be somewhat paying for it, but the advantage is that e-books will contain more useful information than your usual article.

So what are you waiting for? Training German shepherd won’t be easy and it is this particular reason that you will need all the help that you can get. Search on the available products online right now. Sure, you will be spending a bit, but considering all the value that you will be getting in turn, it will be more than worth it.
