"Put a prong collar with a six-foot leash on the dog. Don't

a prong works better than a choke with less chance
of injury to the dog in this situation.

Electronics can be used to create an aversion
to cats, but should be used under the direction
of a trainer who knows how to instruct the owner
in their proper use.

Electronics can take the form of shock, sonic or
citronella collars. At that time the owner will train
with electronics instead of food or whatever other
reward system was being used."

8) Put a prong collar with a six-foot leash on the
dog. Don't forget to put the muzzle on the dog.
I think a prong works better than a choke with less
chance of injury to the dog in this situation.

Have the dog in a sit-stay next to you with most
of the slack out of the leash and let the cat walk
through the room and up to the dog if it wishes
(this is why you have the dog muzzled).

If the dog makes an aggressive move towards the
cat, it must be corrected strongly with both your
voice and the collar.

This is important - the correction must be physically
very strong - not a nag. (PS: not many dogs need
to be corrected at all)."

Dogs only respond in PREDICTABLE normal natural

The GL is NOT gentle nor is it a leader, it's a vicious
neck twisting torture device designed by your NADOI pals
with the help of a veterinary behaviorist who HURTS, DRUGS,
and KILLS dogs for a living, as a LAST RESORT.

You mean instead of shocking them as you've done to your dog.
That's HOWE COME your sar dog Jive can't SAR.

That's curious. PRYOR to The Puppy Wizzzard, the term
EXTINCTION has NEVER been used on this forum, EXCEPT
AS AN EXCUSE TO ALLOW THE DOG TO CONTINUE TO EXPERIENCE EXTREME
FRUSTRATION AND REINIFORCE
BAD BEHAVIOR IN THE FAR FETCHED HOPE OF OUTLASTING
THE UNWANTED BEHAVIOR BY IGNORING IT.

From: Elizabeth B. Naime (els...@kuhub.cc.ukans.edu)
Subject: Re: 3 Month old Puppy Problems?? LONG

"All the books say that "a behavior that is not reinforced or
rewarded will go away". It's generally true, BUT if something
has been rewarded in the past (like begging for food) the dog
will usually get worse before it starts to get better. I
think this is called an "extinction burst"? So when you
ignore her at table, she gets louder and more obnoxious. If
you can put up with it and just not respond at all, ever, it
will probably go away in time; but if you give in even just
once you have taught the dog that persistence pays off. So
you could do this (ignore it and it will go away) but it will
be a long hard road and you absolutely have to be consistent
about it or it'll get worse."

Subject: Re: bitch of a neighbour
Date: 1995/08/29

Ian,
Yep, big problem. *sigh* Fact is, your neighbor
DID train your dog to do someof these things
(come to her house and beg to be let in, bark to
be let out of the yard), but you've also let her do so.

Time to put a stop to the part you have control over.

First, confine the dog inside. He may still bark when left
alone, particularly at first, but the neighbor can't come by
to let him out (without breaking and entering at least) and
the noise should be somewhat muffled by the house. If the dog
is not used to being left alone in the house you will have to
begin by crating or otherwise confining him -- a bored,
annoyed, stressed dog who is used to getting his way and
doesn't undestand why it's not working now can do an amazing
amount of damage and most of it because he's worried. You can
work up to giving him the run of the house once he understands
what's expected of him and that he's not locked in there
forever.

Once you have him in the house and out of the neighbor's way
you will need to teach him not to bark in your absence. This
is normally a difficult task requiring lots of patience, so
start on a weekend or when you have all day to go away and
come back many times. Also be aware that since his barking
has been rewarded, it will get MUCH WORSE for a short while
before it gets better. I think behaviorists call this an
"extinction burst". It's very very important that you never
give in to the barking, from now on, because he has already
learned that persistence pays and one slip up on your part
will reinforce that."

> They know the science, just not the terminology.

That so? The Puppy Wizzzard doesn't play "word twister."

> the dog is going to respond

The Puppy Wizzzard sez dogs only respond to circumstances
and situations of their environment in instinctive, normal,
natural,
innate, reflexive, ways, as WE provide for them.

> and what it means to the dog.

What it means to the dog is irrelevant. What it means to
dog trainers is, "ALL DOG BEHAVIOR PROBLMES ARE
CAUSED BY MISHANDLING."

"While some form of aversive counterconditioning may be
eventually required (e.g., a toss of shaker can or resorting
to a repellent of some kind), I would advise a more
conservative approach for now involving extinction (ignore the
dog or leave the room), shape non-licking behavior with
rewards, redirect licking behavior into a more acceptable
outlet, and alter the environment so the behavior is less
likely to occur."

This is unfortunately too familiar to me.

My neurotic poster-child has gotten to the point where he
howls when we go away, even if we leave him uncrated, with
relatives! They're all very entertained by the howling, and
he eventually settles down and starts shadowing the relative.

But I digress.....

One way to combat the noise is to hide in the house or right
outside til the noise starts. Then burst into the room and
make a racket on the crate door (god doesn't like noisy
little dogs). Seems a bit cruel, but beats the alternatives."

I would suggest ignoring the dog **completely** when it comes
up to you to play. When it brings you a ball, let the ball
drop at your feet. Play with the dog when you initiate the
play. If the dog pesters you, and you give it attention (even
looking at the dog or pushing it away), you have given the dog
what he/she wants, and taught the dog to come and bite your
ankles when it wants attention.

This "extinction" can be extremely difficult, but it has been
very beneficial for my 16-month old dalmatial adopted from a
kennel. "

Actually, behaviors on nonvariable schedules of reinforcement
can have really obnoxious "extinction bursts", perhaps more
intensely than variably reinforced behaviors (I can try to
look this up if there's really an interest here).

But behaviors on a variable schedule take *longer* to
extinguish, which is precisely what we want in dog training
(as well as what we don't want in accidentally reinforced
nuisance behaviors)."

=========================

And here's HOWE you apply it, according to professora "CHIN
CHUCK absolutely doesn't mean slap" gingold:

From: AVRAMA GINGOLD (avrama_...@izone.com)
Subject: Re: harsh correction
Date: 1996/05/29

The harshness of a correction should also be a
function of how heinous the mistake is, and how
important it is that it never again occur. Thus if
you want to completely extinguish a response
(behavior) you might need a much harsher correction
than if you are willing to have a few more
repetitions of the undesirable behavior before it is
extinguished.

Please note I am also referring to the importance of
extinction, not just to the preference for
extinguishing a response. Thus if you have a pup who
manages to chew electric wires (even after you've
done everything possible to keep them out of reach),
it is understandable to give a harsh correction the
first time you see him chewing wires. A second
episode might leave you with a fatally electrocuted
puppy! On the other paw, failure to keep a
sit/stay, or to do a perfect heel, is not a life and
death matter.

I dislike the joining of "harsh" with "correction."
A correction is not really intended as a punishment.
It is exactly what it says: a correction, showing the
correct behavior. The "harsh correction" mentioned
above in conjunction with wire chewing is most
definitely a negative or noxious stimulus, intended
to create an avoidance response -- the pup sees wires
and avoids them like the plague. The pup eyes the
legs of a chair, you say "uh uh" or clear your
throat, and then give the pup a rawhide chewtoy, and
say "good boy" when he starts to chew the
rawhide--THAT is a correction. You have altered the
behavior and provided an alternative behavior.

avrama & shomer

Of curse, we know HURTING dogs to train them is CONTRAWIZE, AS IT
TEACHES THE DOG TO DO
THE BEHAVIOR WHEN YOU'RE NOT STANDING
THERE READY TO HURT IT SOMEMOORE, AND
CAUSES TEMPERAMENT AND HEALTH PROBLEMS.

LIKE AGGRESSION, SELF MUTILATION, AND DEATH.

Tell us HOWE COME professora chin chuck sez

Then we can talk about SAR and the term "RINGWIZE."

(stay on the ear until it does) (perhaps because the ear
is getting tender, or the dog has decided it isn't worth
it)" lying frosty dahl.

"Chin cuff absolutely does not mean slap," professora

Koehler Method Of Dog Training
by Koehler, W R
Published by HOWELL BOOK HOUSE
(0876056575,

========================================================

Here's some quotes and some methods right outta your
koehler book professor "SCRUFF SHAKE and scream "NO!"
into its face for 5 seconds:"

"The Koehler Method of Dog Training (1962). New York:
Howell Book Book House(p. 52-53)."

Hanging

"First, the trainer makes certain that the collar and leash
are more than adequate for any jerk or strain that the
dog's most frantic actions could cause. Then he starts
to work the dog deliberately and fairly to the point where
the dog makes his grab. Before the teeth have reached
their target, the dog, weight permitting, is jerked from
the ground.

As in coping with some of the afore-mentioned problems
the dog is suspended in mid-air.

However, to let the biting dog recover his footing while
he still had the strength to renew the attack would be
cruelty. The only justifiable course is to hold him
suspended until he has neither the strength nor
inclination to renew the fight. When finally it is
obvious that he is physically incapable of expressing his
resentment and is lowered to the ground, he will
probably stagger loop-legged for a few steps,
vomit once or twice, and roll over on his side.

The sight of a dog lying, thick-tongued, on his side,
is not pleasant, but do not let it alarm you

THE REAL "HOOD"

"If your dog is a real "hood" who would regard the
foregoing types of protest as "kid stuff" and would
express his resentment of your efforts by biting,
your problem is difficult -- and pressing.

"Professional trainers often get these extreme problems.
Nearly always the "protest biter" is the handiwork of a
person who, by avoiding situations that the dog might
resent, has nurtured the seeds of rebellion and then
cultivated the resultant growth with under correction.

When these people reap their inevitable and oftentimes
painful harvest, they are ready to avail themselves of
"the cruel trainer" whose advice they may have once
rejected because it was incompatible with the sugary
droolings of mealy-mouthed columnists, breed-ring
biddies, and dog psychologists who, by the broken skins
and broken hearts their misinformation causes, can be
proven guilty of the greatest act of cruelty to animals
since the dawn of time.

"With more genuine compassion for the biting dog than
would ever be demonstrated by those who are "too kind"
to make a correction and certainly with more disregard
for his safety, the professional trainer morally feels
obligated to perform a "major operation."

"Since we are presently concerned with the dog that bites
in resentment of the demands of training, we will set our
example in that situation. (In a later chapter we will
deal with the with the much easier problem of the dog
that bites someone other than his master."
