Subject: Rubbing the lamp again!!
HOWEDY Ziggy,
Nice to hear from you again. We're all outta crow at the minute... but you had your fill of that the last time, so it's not necessary noMOORE (cindy moore being the author of HOWER faq's pages.) Care for some dessert?
INDEED. Sweet, hunh?
For SHORE!
Thank you for being a dilligent student.
It's MOORE than that, it's the effect of ceasing the negative interactions and allowing the dog to make choices that he's comfortable with, which coincidentally suite HOWER desires.
Hmm. That sounds like he may be viewing the can as a punisher. The idea is not to threaten with the can, just briefly distract from different directions so the dog can focus on the praise and the blank spot the distraction makes. Any sound will do, so long as it never comes from the same point twice in a row and is always instantly followed by prolonged non physical praise.
Ain't that sweet though!
My Danes and English Mastiffs often came to me after several trainers had messed them up BIG TIME...
Yeah, that's the state of the art around here. The term oik is unfamiliar to me.
That OTOH, IS familiar to me. It's SHAMEFUL HOWE the dog trainers mishandle their dogs and think they're training them.
The Puppy Wizzzard will wager $100.00 US he can train any dog to heel sit and stay in 5 minutes flat without hurting him or doin anything you wouldn't do to an infant...
We're gonna get you a working partner.
HOWER dogs DIVE INTO their commands cause they LOVE doin what we ask, cause that's the nature of the beast.
We shouldn't have to make a second request, but if that's the case, we simply create a sound on the cue word in the command phrase and praise, and the command will be followed by conditioned reflex. If that second request fails, we repate the command phrase and praise and the dog will probably respond based on the reconditioning of the cue in the second request. Should the third request fail, we repeat the conditioning creating the sound from the alternate direction with the cue word in the command phrase and the dog will likely follow.
Barring that, we give up on conditioning the command phrase and ask for the come command, teaching the pup any time he fails a command, to come to us for help, subordinating hiim.
We then pay him off for that by returning him to heel, the equal partner position. And he's ready to work harder at the command the next time, startin off on a clean slate with no anxiety about the failure.
The Puppy Wizzzard only uses that for ladies...
Me too. The Puppy Wizzzard is workin on a plan...
For SHORE. HOWER dogs LOVE to work.
INDEED. My sound machine sounds remarkably like Gongyo.
There's many forms of Buddhism. What kind are you?
Not at all, anytime. That's HOWE COME I'm here.
Darn...
Perhaps I can change your mind. I don't mind being 'bothered' constantly.
That's EZ! Just ASK him.
Put him on command and follow the techniques. It's EZ.
RIGHT! That's on account of you've broken the TECHNIQUE!
CAUSE YOU'RE VIOLATING THE RULES!
No problem! You just figgered it out, I think.
Simply self defense.
NOOO! That's not training. Just ASK him to do as you prefer and follow the techniques. Just cause you're in the car is no different.
You can train him to relax in a seat belt. I wouldn't use one because I want the dog to be able to get outta the car when he needs to.
It's entirely up to you. I mighta bought the farm a while back has I been strapped down.
I can't help with the dough but if you need help training him to the seat belt, NO PROBLEMO, we can do that in WON session.
I just tell the dogs where they're to sit and ask them to sit or down and stay, whatever's best for the situation.
Right. You'll have to train him to understand and tolerate the belt.
Right. It's the restraint you're trying to impose on him without following the techniques. Put him on command, ask him to sit or down and stay and praise and use the technqiues to keep him on command. If he breaks position, that's O.K., repeate the command or tell him 'back to work' and follow through with the routine.
Right. Just a little mishandling.
Should take about ten minutes handling him pupperly on lead and putting him in the car as you want and working the pup till he's sittin pretty and your lead is handled pupperly to get him used to what you're asking.
Hmm. Maybe The Puppy Wizzzard will have a look see at what benefits we get for HOWER dog license fees...
