Your dog is havin those "small seizures" because
EVERY TIME you take her out for a walk you jerk
and choke her to prevent her eatin chicken bones
pizza crusts needles and rubber gloves sticks
dirt and shit, david. IOW, your dog got STRESS
INDUCED SEIZURES JUST LIKE matty's dog Rocky got.
AND YOU'LL NEVER CURE HER DIS-EASE UNLESS YOU STUDY
and FOLLOW the INSTRUCTIONS in your own FREE COPY of

Your dog will end up with facial or lyrangeal paralysis,
and maybe need a tieback surgery or be DESTROYED because
she won't be able to eat drink or swallow, david.
We're not talking about doggy SICKNESS, david, we're talkin
about HUMAN MENTAL ILLNESS, aka The Puppy Wizard's SYNDROME.

INDEED. That's all part of The Puppy Wizard's SYNDROME,
david. It's a DEATHLY DIS-EASE and YOUR DOG GOT IT ONLY
because YOU DIDN'T LIKE The Amazing Puppy Wizard "PREACHING"
at you about CHOKING and PUNISHING your dog, david.
Well, you got your JUST DESSERTS and The Amazing Puppy
Wizard GOT ANOTHER CASE HISTORY to PROVE The Puppy Wizard
SYNDROME, david. THANK YOU, this is the ONLY WAY I can
make it into the medical books without going to ten years
of university education.

He shoulda done that FIRST, david. But don't forget,
I AM NOT A VET so I don't know all about TREATIN
DIS-EASES, david, but it ONLY MAKES SENSE that those
issues should be done FIRST instead of LAST, as your
vet has chosen to do.

INDEED, david. THEY GOT THE SAME PROBLEMS, david,
because they are KNOWN DOG ABUSING MENTALLY ILL
COWARDS and LIARS.

That so?
> Why steroids?
BECAUSE THE VETS ONLY SELL PHARMACUTICALS,
not CURE DIS-EASES, david. Your dog didn't
need to GET "SICK", david, had you BELIEVED
The Amazing Puppy WIzard.
IN FACT, you can CURE HER DIS-EASE IN A COUPLE
DAYS if you study and follow the INSTRUCTIONS
PRECISELY, david, but you WON'T, because to do
so will SHAME and EMBARRASS you, david, and you'd
PREFER TO MURDER YOUR DOG FIRST than admit The
Amazing Puppy Wizard was RIGHT, david.
NO PROBLEMO, david, I NEED YOUR CASE HISTORY
either way, david. HOWEver, it WOULD BE NICE
to have you study my manual and follow the
instructions precisely and CURE your dog's
DEATHLY DIS-EASE in a couple days and report
your SUCCESS RIGHT HERE, but YOU WON'T, because
that too, is PART OF The Puppy Wizard's SYNDROME.
It's very similar to MuncHOWESEN BY PROXY, david.

dog's condition.

And it's GONNA GET WORSE because livin in NYC
you'll NEVER be able to walk your dog without
encountering chicken bones pizza crusts and
needles and being a dog abuser you'll NEVER
be able to TRAIN her not to pick up crap from
the ground, david.
Here's the NEW CURE for your dog's condition,
david. Put your dog on a harness and DO NOT
SCOLD her when you pass by chicken bones and
pizza crusts and MAYBE, JUST MAYBE, your dog
will be able to go outside to relieve herself
without you HURTING and INTIMIDATING her, david.
Yours, The Amazing Puppy Wizard <{); ~ ) >
CORRECTION!
In the folowing post I said harness but
FORGOT to say "AND MUZZLE", that's the
secret to get your dog to walk without
being choked and punished, unless of
curse, you chose to TRAIN HER according
to my methods, which you steadfastly
REFUSE to do because THAT is the NATURE
of a dog abusing coward.
At any rate, your forthcoming SUCCESS
heeling your dog with a harness and
MUZZLE will likeWIZE PROVE The Puppy

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."
Are we havin FUN yet?
Got a lite, professor SCRUFF SHAKE?
Have you ever stayed quiet long enough to actually hear what goes on
within yourself? If not, how can you want to cure your dog of her
ailments if you have not cured yourself of your own?
I am no scientist but do know that our own issues must first be dealt
with before we decide to become a stuart of another living entity.
Ask yourself: What was your initial intention when you thought about
getting a dog?

david's dog is sufferin SEIZURES because EVERY TIME
he goes out for a walk he gets jerked and choked to
prevent him from eatin garbage. The "CURE" is for
david to walk his dog on a harness with a basket
muzzle. That will avoid the PROBLEM of TRAININ his
dog apupriately and not havin to HURT and INTIMIDATE

"At this point, "No" does not have any behavioral function.
But, if you say "No,"pick up the puppy by its neck and
shake it a bit, and the frequency of the biting decreases
then you will have achieved too things.
First, the frequency of unwanted chewing has decreased;
and two, you have established "No" as a conditioned punisher.
How much neck pulling and shaking? Just the
minimum necessary to decrease the unwanted
biting.

Dear Mr. Puppy Wizard,
I have, of late, come to recognize your genius
and now must applaud your attempts to save
animals from painful training procedures.
You are indeed a hero, a man of exceptional talentÂ,
who tirelessly devotes his days to crafting posts Âto
alert the world to animal abuse.
We are lucky to have you, and more people should
come to their senses and support your valuable
work.
Have you thought of establishing a nonprofit
charity to fund your important work?
Have you thought about holding a press conference
so others can learn of your highly worthwhile
and significant work?
In closing, my only suggestion is that you
try to keep your messages short for most
readers may refuse to read a long message
even if it is from the wise, heroic Puppy Wizard.
I wish you well in your endeavors.

Marisa you have much hard reading ahead of you because
Jerry's manual is verbose and spends about as many lines
condeming other approaches as describing what to do.

Different events function as rewards for different dogs.
Some dogs seek praise, some seek petting, and some seek
food. If you are lucky your dog will value all three,
but don't count on it.
I doubt any major publishing house would distribute Jerry's
manual because it is so verbose, so here you find Jerry giving
it away.
There is some wisdom in his manual but IMHO there is even
more wisdom in clicker training approaches which are positive
and though they use food, food need not always be presented.
My favorite video, so far, is Karen Pryor's _Clicker Magic_.
Perhaps you can view it through your public library. The
major pet supply retailers sell clickers for about $2.
Also, try a keyword search with "clicker training" at
www.google.com as well as "Jerry Howe" or the
name of his method.
Then ask yourself this question: Why is there so
much interest in "clicker training" and so little
interest in Jerry's method?

Subject: one day
I started some of the simple techniques in Jerrys manual today.
The family pack exercise....come command.....that's all
so far though. I did get the proper equipment as well.
20 foot leash, cans with pennies partially crushed, flat
collar, etc.
I have also stopped any negative reinforcment such as
loud "No" and "Bad girl Sonique!" (Sonique is my Jack
russell) and holding her back, which I normally MUST
do or she'll jump and nip sometimes, but always jumping
and barking.
Already tonight some has started working. When someone
came to the door, Sonique went nuts as usual. I said
"Thank you Sonique!" "It's o.k. girl, thank you!" And
we got a total of about 6 barks and then no jumping on
guests, no biting, growling or the worst, the continued
barking she normally does.
She accepted my praise, and trooted around, still excited
over guests, but she was WAY more under control. Even my
roomates noticed this. She repeated this same thing without
all her normal fuss later when another two friends came over.
So I do need more time, going to keep with it another day,
another month whatever until I know I am getting results,
although I must say, so far I am impressed with my dog.
She really responds to praise better than she ever has
responded to treats as distraction from the guests and
doorbell, or me yelling "bad girl! go away now! shoosh
up!" all the time.
I am also verbally praising her everytime she makes eye
contact with me. so hopefully things will continue going well!

Subject: Obsessive behav. *longish*...help please!
Hi- My name is marisa and I have two Jack Russells,
a male and a female. My female is long legged and
long hair and 1 and 1/2 years old. I have had her
since she was just a wee pup and she is the most
wonderful dog. No problems with her!
Recently I adopted another Jack Russell. A short
legged, short haired male named "Tug" his age is
unknown but he is pretty old, his has few teeth
left, all are molars. He is in good shape and
pretty well behaved. We do have one odd problem.
Tug has some sort of obsessive compulsive behaviour
I have not been able to correct let alone even improve,
and this behaviour was there from day one.
Tug will run in very tight fast circles outside my
bathroom door. I have four budgies in there, but he
has yet to have actual acsess to them. He is stimulated
to do this "circling" whenever in my room, and whenever
the birds chirp. He will be outside the door and circling
for an hour sometimes. Most of the time I try and break
it up by distraction because I am uncertain if he should
be scoulded for this or helped medically, emotionally, or
what....even when I close my bedroom door (bathroom with
birds is IN my room) he will choose to wait outside my
bedroom door over being downstairs with us in the living room.
He will stay there until someone goes in, then he will
sneak in and start his growling and circling. We have
been trying to keep him out of my room all day, and he
is only inside the room at night in his crate. During
that time (in the crate) he will stare at the bathroom
door for hours sometimes, or sleep. And rarely he will
even circle in the crate.
I am not sure what to do. I am not sure if scoulding him
is right, or letting him circle, or stopping it like I
have been by distraction, which sometimes doesnt even work.
When circling like this he only listens to me calling him
less than half the time.
He is obsessed!
Any help? thanks in advance.

Any form of obsessive behaviour is stress related so
scolding and punishments will only further the stress.
He's obviously worried about these birds - it's not
something he's encountered before, they make a strange
noise and he feel there must be some problem that if
no one else is going to do it, it's best that he sorts
it out - and not being able to is stressing him.
Jerry, no doubt, has sent you his manual. He may be
a bit off with peole but in his manual you will find
instructions for distraction and praise which, ultimately
for this problem, there is no topping.
Unfortunately he does no use winzip so it will take
a while to download - meant to talk to him about that!

Diana's (Luscious Lugs) old alsation has degenerative

being able to use her back legs properly. My Judy has
kidney problems and sometimes her back leg muscles shake.
If you do a Google search I'm sure you'll find some old

Watching Uncle Matty train a Golden Retriever not to chase
cars using a 30' (?) rope and a choke chain nearly made me
throw up. I'm amazed his head stayed on.
Prior to that I could see that they worked and was always
of the belief that it was the sound as much as anything
that did the job.
Now we have haltis which are easy and kind, we have greater
understanding and (hopefully) respect for our dogs as emotional
beings ~ there are so many kind methods, why should anyone want
to choose one that can cause physical pain or even injury to
their pet?
We have a light hearted group site on the newsgroup
alt.animals.dog on which Helle Haugenes has offered
an article on choke collars. This has been translated
from Norwegian but does tell of some of the physical
damage that can occur to dogs trained with these collars:

The Wizard? ~ I think you are getting Uncle Matty
and 'The Puppy Wizard' confused! LOL
I personally think Uncle Matty's dog training methods
are extremely dangerous to the physical well-being of
a dog and that choke chains have no better use than as
items to remind us of the barbaric means by which we
once 'trained' our dogs...
Also, because they really do hurt the dog and frighten
it, you are destroying the great relationship that you
should be working to vbuild with your dog...
I know there are a lot of people who disagree with me,
but then there are many who share my point of view...
but ultimately why use a method to teach your dog that
will hurt it when there are many other ways of getting
the same instruction to your dog without hurting it.
The Puppy Wizard on the other hand is otherwise known
as Jerry Howe and alleges that he is a dog trainer but
apart from on these newsgroups where he rants abusive
posts, no one has ever heard of him. For all his faults,
his approach as written in 'his manual' is very anti the
use of choke chains.
Hope that clarifies!

Hi Stuart,
Just be a little careful, you can also pick up a lot
of garbage on the WWW! ~ If you venture in to any of
the other dog groups, you'll find a character called
Jerry Howe aka the Puppy wizard who might at first
seem to be offering a lot of very good advice.
As you read on though, you learn that many of his
ideas in his 'free manual' have been copied / stolen
from other peoples works ands some of his ideas are
downright dangerous.
Poor chap is surely insane.
