I use a prong collar on my dog. I tried it on my arm first to
know what it would feel like. I'm satisfied that it feels like
a gentle tightening, not a jerk. My dog responds much better
to the prong than she did to the slip chain or flat collar.

The comparison with putting one on a small child is so
specious that I normally wouldn't reply, but I'm in a
strange mood so here goes: Dogs are not small children.
You wouldn't feed a small child dogfood either. You
wouldn't put ANY collar on a small child to be jerked
around.

For that matter, you don't jerk a dog on a prong.

That's not the way they're used properly. Oh, and dogs
aren't horses either. It sounds like you need a remedial
course in animal differentiation.

It caused injury on my 8 MONTH old puppy when a
"professional" trainer used one on her without my
permission or knowledge. You'd have a hell of a time
proving to me there is a "proper" way to use a prong collar.


>And why would anyone use any sort of

Why would someone use one on ANY dog? I have
some theories. Incompetence is one.

I always wonder if the prong collar cheerleaders have
ever put one on a small child and then periodically jerked
on the leash for at least one hour. My guess is no, they
haven't and they never would.

It's interesting how abuse is relative.

Better yet just put one on YOURSELF and hand the leash to a friend.

If I can walk my 1800 lb. Quarter Horse with a flat nylon
halter, surely a dog can be walked with a flat nylon collar.

I take it you're considering running the wire across
the top of the fence? I don't think I'd recommend
that, although it may be worth a try. Watch closely -
- the one case where I saw a hotwire used in this
fashion caused the dog undue stress and frustration,
and he tried even harder to get over the fence.

So be prepared to take it down right away.

That was a Dane, though. With a Saint

Cubbe got out in the neighborhood leashless for the
first time in roughly 2 years. The first few times were
when we first got her before she'd had any training
and before we got the electric fence to reinforce the
physical one.

It was horrible. She paid us no attention, ignored
clickers and treats and calls. Make that, it was
horrible for us. She had a blast running free and
chasing whatever she wanted.

For us it was 45 minutes of sheer terror as we
tried to catch her.

Luckily there wasn't too much traffic yesterday
morning. It had snowed, and the streets weren't
quite clear yet. Jim finally caught her when she
was preoccupied with her head down a hole.

For 2 years I've been giving her a daily long walk in the
neighborhood. She now walks pretty nicely on a leash.
She gets daily indoor clicker training sessions.

She has perfect recalls in the house. She gets intermittent
treats for those recalls. She gets plenty of time to run free
in the backyard.

Her recalls are less reliable there, but I've been
working on them. I haven't been as good about
introducing the variable reinforcement there, but
I have been good about making sure that she's
never tricked into coming into the house when
she'd rather be outside. I always call her, give
her a treat or praise and let her go again.

So I haven't been a perfect dog trainer, but I don't
think I'm a terrible one. I say that because I'm about
to ask y'all for some help in correcting my mistakes,
and while I don't mind criticism for past mistakes, I
am hoping you'll concentrate on what I should do now.

Yesterday morning Cubbe had had some nice backyard
time. I'd gotten her into the house and was preparing to
leave when she escaped straight through the front door
and right in front of our noses.

She was still wearing the zap collar, but the
battery was low. She gave a small yip when
she went over the wire, and the chase ensued.

We were careful not to scold her once she was caught.

Today I let her out in the backyard with her usual zap
collar now with a fresh battery. She was waiting by the
backdoor to come in when I went to call her. From her
excited behavior, I could tell that she fully expected
to be let out the front door again so she could have
another fun romp in the neighborhood.

I'm so filled with anxiety from yesterday's
escapade that I keep checking for her every
time I open the door.

Later in the afternoon, she was much worse
about coming when called even from the backyard.

My specific questions:

How do I teach recalls when she so clearly knows
when she's in a confined space and when she isn't?

She normally only wears the zap collar when she's in the
backyard because the wire goes around the house and
could zap her when she's near certain windows inside.

If I let her get zapped at the front door with the zap collar,
can I still take the zap collar off and walk her out the front
door with her leash on?

I don't want her to become afraid of the front door.

What's the best emergency procedure if, god
forbid, it should happen again?

Might Cubbe be ready for harsher training techniques?
By this I mean, I've been using clicker and treats for
Cubbe because she so obviously freaked when we used
leash corrections and scoldings when we first got her.

I know this is a hard subject to bring up without
starting the whole cruelty thread again so I'll state
my opinion once and won't defend it further: any
method can be cruel for some dogs.

Even the slightest punishment was wrong for
Cubbe at the beginning, but we've come a long
way since then.

She trusts us now as I mentioned in a recent post.
Point is, she's been rewarded for coming, but she's
never been punished, even in the mildest way, for
not coming.

Is it time for that?

What might I look for to tell?

Last night we had friends over for dinner with their
3 daughters ages 14, 10 and 7. The girls loved Cubbe
and were having a blast clicker training her.

I was impressed with how quickly they caught on and
how little correction they needed to be consistent
with the clicks and treats.

Cubbe was fine with the children; she always
has been. Just as they were getting ready to
go, the 10 year old went to give Cubbe a hug.

Cubbe must have felt threatened and confined
because she gave a snarl-snap.

I was right there, and without thinking I quickly yelled,
turned Cubbe over on her back, got in the face and let
her know that no snarling is allowed. The girl wasn't
frightened at all, and her parents who were also right
there hadn't realized what had happened. I then asked
the snarlee to rub Cubbe's belly further to reinforce
that Cubbe is the submissive one in that relationship.

I let Cubbe up and all was fine.

I suppose that's another issue, but I bring it up as part
of wondering if Cubbe should be trained with punishments now.

Like I said, I did that without thinking, and now I think it
was the right thing to do. So how do I apply this to dealing
with Cubbe the escapee?

"Julia Altshuler" <jaltshu...@attbi.com> wrote in message
news:3DC4A3BD...@attbi.com...

I need help deciding if I have a real problem with
Cubbe that needs immediate attention or if I'm
imagining trouble where there is none.

Here's what happened last April the way I described
it to a friend at the time:

I'm worried about Cubbe. Or rather, I'm kicking
myself for doing something stupid. Ellie has been
over many times and has always gotten along great
with Cubbe. Cubbe is always at the door when I let
Ellie in.

She's barky-protective but then stops barking once

Ellie is inside. She's never shown any real
aggression. The other night Ellie and I went out
together to run an errand.

Ellie was coming in the house with packages so
I came in first and put Cubbe in the bedroom with
Jim so Ellie could get through the door more easily.

I could hear Cubbe barking. Once Ellie was inside,
I opened the bedroom door for Cubbe. She ran out
to attack the intruder.

Ellie was trying to be friendly.

Ellie put a tooth in Ellie's finger. Granted the resulting
scratch was no worse than the way my cuticles bleed
when they get dry and I don't rub lotion into them every
night, but Ellie was understandably scared.

Jim ran out and got control of Cubbe right away.
I got Ellie some alcohol and a bandage. The scary
thing is that, even though the damage is minor, it
does qualify as a bite since Cubbe did mean to do it.

I guess I should just learn from it and never let
Cubbe greet someone like that again, but I'm
horribly torn up.

I've said that I would never keep an aggressive
dog. Now the whole issue is so complicated.

Cubbe is great even with kids when we meet
them in the neighborhood.

Since then I've been careful not to do anything like that.

Then Halloween night Cubbe spent most of the
night in the computer room with Jim while I answered
the door. She did bark each time she heard the
doorbell ring. We did nothing to discourage that.

We want her to be barky protective so
it made sense for her to bark when she

heard people in the neighborhood, especially
at night. Later in the evening, Jim put Cubbe
on a leash and was hanging out with her in the
front hall while I still got the door. One of the first
people to come to the door once she was out of the
computer room was our neighbor Nicky.

I think Nicky is 11 now. He's known Cubbe since
we got her 4 years ago, has always liked her, petted
her and asked to come on walks. Nick lifted his mask
on the porch so I'd know who it was.

Then I invited him into the hall to pet Cubbe.

Cubbe snarled and sort of air snapped at him.
Of course Jim was right there so no damage was
done. Nick didn't even have to draw his hand away,
and he didn't get scared.

Nothing scares that boy.

I don't like this. Twice now Cubbe has been overly
protective-aggressive when people have entered the
house.

Both times they've been people she knows and
should like. She's wonderfully nice to people on
walks. We don't have guests over too often so
I can't comment if it's a growing thing or not.

Comments please. Is this a major growing
aggression problem?

I'd guess it's territoriality about the house and yard.
What do I do about it?

I usually put Cubbe on a leash when friends come over
and then walk her outside while the friend gets out of
her car, and then we walk in together.

She'll still bark when they're in the house and then
calm down. Is that a good idea? Should I be
doing something more to make sure this doesn't
escalate?

Subject: Cubbe report: Chief
Date: 2003-09-12 21:04:11 PST

Chief if my neighbor Jo's 40# 1 1/2 year old Sheltie.
Jim has been running into them on his morning walks
with Cubbe. For a week he's been feeding me glowing
reports about how Cubbe is terrific with Chief.

Cubbe has never been particularly wonderful with any
other dog, so terrible in fact that I'd despaired at ever
seeing Cubbe frolic and play with other dogs.

I'd resigned myself to the idea that Cubbe is happy
with her people, her yard, her squirrels, her spot on
the couch, and that makes a pretty good life, one
that doesn't involve the companionship of her own
species. Jim's reports were encouraging.

Jim convinced Jo to bring Chief over for a playdate.
We put Cubbe on a leash so she could meet Chief
again on neutral territory. They sniffed as dogs
normally do.

Chief and Cubbe entered the front door. To my
amazement, all was fine. Out in the backyard
and off leash, Cubbe didn't pay much attention
to Chief, but there was no trouble even though
she and Chief were close to each other.

Both dogs seemed more interested that their
people were handing out treats (for good behaviors
like SITs).

Jim went into the house for some balls thinking the 2
dogs would like to chase them together. He did not
consult me about this hare brained scheme.

Jo and I were 5 feet away from the dogs when Cubbe
decided to attack Chief. She's not an experienced
fighter so I don't know if attack is the right word. She
was snarfing, making growly noises, jumping on Chief,
had her mouth on Chief's neck (on his back, behind his
ears) and basically not looking friendly, but I think if she'd
wanted to do real damage, she would have, and Chief
was fine, nary a hair out of place.

Naturally with us all right there, we were able to
intervene in seconds.

A second later, it was all over. Cubbe looked like she'd
like to be friends again, but Chief, while not running away
or anything was obviously spooked and keeping his distance.

Jo and Chief went home. (I went with them for chat and
apologies, but that's not part of the Cubbe story.)

Cubbe has never food or toy guarded with people.

Might she have been guarding the balls Jim brought
out? Or was it the fact that we let our guard down for
a few seconds and she got scared of Chief when we
all weren't practically on top of her?

Or did we push her too far by leaving her and
Chief together for too many minutes when a
few seconds would have been better for a first try?

Or other theories?

Do we continue trying to find a dog that will put up with
Cubbe? Or do we give up again and go back to letting
Cubbe live a dogless existence?

only friend Ellie done?

> We'd said he could pet the dog

You mean your FEAR AGGRESSIVE dog Cubbe, liea?

Hey liea? You remember when you first started
OBEDIENCE TRAININ IT, and IT began to
TURN ON YOU for HURTIN her on your
PRONGED SPIKED PINCH CHOKE COLLAR?

> and gave instructions on how to do so properly.

Oh, you mean to offer IT a cookie an let IT smell the
back of your hand, offered from UNDERNEATH,
like a CHIN CHUCK, so the dog don't think you're
fixin to STRIKE IT liea?

Perhaps you can EXXXPLAIN again HOWE a
CHIN CHUCK AIN'T HITTIN THE DOG, liea,
and HOWE IT IS that a dog bein CHIN CHUCKED
don't KNOW it's the lyin dog abusin mental case with
the HANDS who HIT HIM?

> The kid promptly disobeyed every instruction.

Oh, you mean he went up to IT an sez 'HOWEDY' an
SCARED your FEAR AGGRESSIVE dog Cubbe?

> Cubbe got scared and gave a brief snap.

Naaah? She got a BAD HABIT of ATTACKIN
innocent defenseless critters, like that 12 year
old dog Chief, DHOWEN the street?

Hey liea? HOWE did you manage to get your neighbor
with the barkin Pit Bull to GET RID OF HER DOG?
Did you have to call animal CON-TROLL on her very
often?

> I'd have given the kid a kiss,

That'd be the kiss of death, eh, liea?

> a band-aid

You mean for the BITE he DIDN'T GET, liea?

> and lesson on listening to instructions,

You mean YOUR instructions, liea? Even a CHILD
knows you're a pathetic miserable stinkin lyin dog
an child abusin imbecile <{}: ~ ( >

> but the parents took him to the emergency

"I don't even think she broke the kid's skin".

Perhaps you're in DENIAL, eh, liea?

> At the time, we were terrified that Cubbe would be killed.

Seems it was YOU who WANTED TO KILL HER, liea.

> We were white with fear for every part of the process.

Well that's NORMAL for a NATURAL BORN COWARD.

NHOWE you know HOWE your neighbor with the Pit
Bull felt when YOU MADE HER GET RID OF HER
DOGS on accHOWENTA THEY SCARED YOU.

Oh THAT'S on accHOWENTA she's ALWAYS BEEN
UN-CON-TROLLABLE at the vets, REMEMBER, liea?

IN FACT, your own FEAR AGGRESSIVE dog Cubbe
ATTACKED YOUR VETERINARIAN, remember
NHOWE, liea?

> During the 10 days she had to be on a leash when

Do you use a standard or CUSTOM MADE PRONGED
SPIKED PINCH CHOKE COLLAR, like janet SOLD
paulie an Muttley, liea?

Not to be the grammar police, but it's like 'AS I SEZ', liea,

BWEEEAAAHAHAHAAAA!!!

That so, liea?

You mean like HOWE when you think of as a

That's kindly of you, liea.

Rabies is only seriHOWES if you're a ignorameHOWES
an get yourself ATTACKED by a infected critter or pick
up sumpthin you shouldn't be touchin, liea.

Your dog Cubbe MURDERS innocent defenseless
dumb wild critters, REMEMBER, liea?

Oh, so you let your FEAR CON-TROLL

Oh? Did the kid BITE the DOG, liea?

That so? Does their ill mannered KID attack very
often, like HOWE YOUR OWN FEAR AGGRESSIVE
HOWETA CON-TROLL dog Cubbe has done ON
THREE OCCASIONS with people and WON with
your vet and at least WON with the old dog DHOWEN
the street, liea?

That's like FIVE BITES your own FEAR AGGRESSIVE
DOG Cubbe has done on INNOCENT DEFENSELESS
PEOPLE, not countin the DOG she attacked and probably
a few others you ain't mentioned.

BY ANY STANDARDS CUBBE SHOUL DIE.

UNLESS she's a POLICE DOG attackin HOODLUM KIDS
and a HOWEsbreaker personal friend and a HOWEstile vet.

Let's talk abHOWET the LAW in your
city regardin DOG BITES, liea?

Shameful, eh, liea?

You mean on accHOWENTA WON BAD APPLE

just what the Pit Bull people worry abHOWET, liea.
WON BAD EXXXAMPLE like Cubbe gettin their

You mean you CHANGED YOUR MIND AGAIN, liea?

PERHAPS your FEAR AGGRESSIVE dog Cubbe

Subject: OT: occasional post-this newsgroup

He *is* nuts. Don't answer him.

--Lia

This message is posted to rec.pets.dogs.behavior (r.p.d.b.)
regularly and occasionally to other newsgroups including
alt.animals.dog, rec.pets.dogs.rescue, alt.pets.dog, and
rec.pets.dogs.misc. These are unmoderated groups meaning
that no one checks the messages to make sure they're on-
topic, civil or sensible before they go through.

The purpose of this occasional posting is to give information
about the newsgroup so that discussion about the newsgroup
itself is cut down and discussion about dogs increases.

Like so many usenet groups, this group has people who
post annoyingly and constantly, people who post angry
and abusive messages, people who post to irritate others.

It's up to individuals to decide which posters bother them.

Here are some guidelines that many people follow to
make this newsgroup pleasant and informative:

1. Use your killfile. A killfile (or filter) makes invisible
posts by any particular person or with any particular words
in the subject line.

The posts are still there, but they don't show up on the
screen of the person using the killfile. Look at
http://www.hyphenologist.co.uk/killfile/killfilefaq.htm
for instructions.

2. Don't make more noise. The only thing more annoying
than a troll is an otherwise rational person arguing with or
about a troll.

That's known as feeding the trolls. Please don't feed the
trolls. It really is insane to attempt rational discussion with
the insane.

3. Want to exercise your right to free speech and argue
about or with trolls anyway? Put "ninnyboy" in the
subject line. That way the people who want to join the
fracas can, and those who don't can opt out by killfiling
"ninnyboy." If you don't do this, expect to be killfiled
yourself. [Jerry], with the brackets is also a recognized
signal.

4. Figured out that arguing with trolls is useless but
still want to talk about trolls by referring to them in
the third person? Put "ninnyboy" in the subject line
then too. That subject is boring too.

5. Trim quoted posts to include only the part you're
responding to. Quoting an entire long post in order to
respond to only a small piece of it is annoying. Again,
if you don't do this, expect to be killfiled.

6. Understand Candace. Candace is an automatic
program that answers troll posts automatically,
repetititively and relentlessly.

Most of us find these posts boring after a
short while and killfile it too.

That's O.K. You can't hurt its feelings.

7. Show no fear. Have a question or need to admit that
you've made errors in dog training in the past? This is
still a good place to come for (often contradictory) advice.

Use your own judgment to decide what advice to follow
and what not to. No harm can come to you even if people
vehemently disagree, call you names or repost your old
messages.

8. Label off-topic threads as "OT." A label helps people
decide what to read and what not to.

9. Check the F.A.Q. for answers to frequent non-
complicated questions.

10. Don't post pictures. This is not a binary newsgroup.
That's plain text only, no HTML, no attachments. If you'd
like, post a pointer to a website with pictures on it.

11. Don't crosspost. It's bad enough when someone posts
something dog related to all the groups having to do with
dogs. It's worse when totally unrelated groups get tossed
in the mix. Feel like you absolutely have to jump in on
something that's been crossposted to unrelated groups?

Erase the extraneous ones when you answer.

Subject: OT - Should I bring back the occasional post?

The subject line says it all.

When I started posting the occasional post, the idea
was to help new people understand what's going on with
the annoyances on this newsgroup.

I wanted to help them understand that anything they had
to say on the subject had been said before, wouldn't do
any long term good and would bore a bunch of people in
the short term. I stopped because I wasn't sure I was
accomplishing my goal. Now I'm not so sure. I'm seeing
so many unmarked arguments with the annoyances.

Any opinions?

I'm not taking a vote, but I do care what the regulars think.

For new people, the occasional post is as follows. Do you
think that seeing it when you first started posting would
have helped?

Would it be more useful if it weren't so precise and wordy?
Maybe something shorter? I'm thinking it needs an update.

You sound like a first class immature asshole. You'll live to regret
it someday - and that will be your just desserts.

Some dogs need that type of collar, for various reasons. One is dense
hair and an inability to feel pressure - another is for social skills
training of dogs that are dominate by nature/breeding. It also sounds
like you've never owned a Rottweiler that you adopted as a "spoiled
teenager".

In any case, I sincerely doubt you have the ability to train dogs in
"manners" because you don't exhibit any acceptable social skills of
your own.

Don't worry about him. He's the resident dog-newsgroup troll. Google
for "Candace the border collie" (someone who dedicated time to debunking
him) to find out more about him.
