The Puppy Wizard's Wits End Training Method
I have studied canine behavior and dog training for
years. I have a huge library that covers every system
of training.
The Puppy Wizard's (Jerry Howe's) Wits' End Training
Method is by far the most scientific, the most advanced,
the kindest, the quickest and the most effective training
method yet discovered.
It is not an assortment of training tips and tricks; it is
a logically consistent system. Every behavior problem
and every obedience skill is treated in the same logically
consistent manner.
Please study his manual carefully. Please endeavor to
understand the basis of his system and please follow
his directions exactly. His manual is a masterpiece.
It is dense with theory, with explanation, with detailed
descriptions about why behavior problems occur and
how their solution should be approached.
One should not pick and choose from among his methods
based upon what you personally like or dislike. His is
not a bag of tricks but a complete and integrated system
for not only training a dog but for raising a loving companion.
When I once said to Jerry that his system creates for
you the dog of your dreams, his response was that it
produces for your dog the owner of his dreams.
You see, Jerry has discovered that if you are gentle
with your dog then he will be gentle with you, if you
praise your dog every time he looks at you, then you
will become the center of your dogs world, if you use
Jerry's sound distraction with praise, then it takes
just minutes-sometimes merely seconds-to train your
dog to not misbehave (even in your absence) (Just 15
seconds this morning to train my 10 week old puppy to
lie quietly and let me clip his nails).
Using Jerry's scientific method (sound distraction /
praise / alteration / variation) it takes just minutes to
train you dog to respond to your commands.
What a pleasure it was for me to see my 6 week old
puppy running as fast has his wobbly little legs would
carry him in response to my recall command-and he
comes running every time I call no matter where we are
or what he is doing.
At ten weeks old now, my puppy never strains upon
his leash thanks to Jerry's hot & cold exercises and
his Family Pack Leadership exercises.
Jerry has discovered that if you scold your dog, if you
scream at him, if you intimidate him, if you hurt him,
if you force him then his natural response is to oppose
you.
Is Jerry a nut?
It doesn't make any difference to me whether he is or not.
It is a logical fallacy to judge a person's ideas based
upon their personality. As far as dogs are concerned, Jerry
wears his heart upon his sleeve. It touches him deeply when
he hears of trainers forcing, intimidating, scolding or
hurting dogs.
More than that, he knows that force is not effective
and that it will certainly lead to behavior problems;
sometime problems so severe that people put their
dogs down because of those problems.
I believe that it is natural for humans to want to control
their dog by force. Jerry knows this too. We have all been
at our wits' end, haven't we?
Dogs have a natural tendency to mimic. In scientific
literature it is referred to allelomimetic behavior. Dogs
respond in like kind to force; they respond in like kind
to praise.
Don't bribe your dog with treats; give him what he
wants most-your kind attention. Give him your praise.
You will be astonished at how your dog 's anxiety will
dissipate and how their behavior problems will dissipate
along with their anxiety.
Treat Jerry Howe's (The Puppy Wizard) Wits' End
Training Method as a scientific principle just as you
would the law of gravity and you will have astounding
success.
Dog behavior is just as scientific as is gravity.
If you follow Jerry's puppy rules you will get a sweet
little Magwai; if you don't you will surely get a little
gremlin (anyone see The Gremlins?). --Larry

Jen, your request for a positive only dog training list,
needs the same answer as I give the folk who ask why I
don't have a list for what I do with biofeedback.
The method is so simple, and if you adopt it and relate
to your dog in such a positive manner you won't have any
more problems and there is no need for any more technique.
With Puppies we Ph.D. psychologists have been outflanked
by the entirely practical and effective methods described
in http://www.tinyurl.com/7bl5u. Free download, nothing
sold, no mailing list, no distribution of your name. Free
support if needed.
With ADHD kids I provide similar information at
www.drbiofeedback.com and there is no need for
a list dealing with problems with kids. Apply
as directed and have happy healthy doggies or
kiddies.
Not difficult.

P.S. jerk and choke, spanking, shocking, scruff shake,
choke, chin chucks, all those negatives, denial of
affection etc. are harmful, dranging, obscenities.
You might want to consider Pavlov's typology to
understand "hard and soft dogs" - essentially he
taught that there are outward and inward responding
organisms in weak and strong nervous systems and if
you grasp this firmly you'll shape your training
methods effectively.
Punishment ALWAYS deranges behavior, and so is
recommended and given only by deranged humans.
Of course, it doesn't matter if we are talking
dogs, cats, people, sheep, even husbands.

It helped clear problems from my dogs in the
field using the can penny distraction technique.
Works like a charm.
My dogs get distracted easy from their jobs ie,
retrieving or training to find lost people, oh did
I mention that I am a Search and Rescue Team
Leader.
Sorry that slipped my mind.
I have read volumes of training books and don't
know where people get that Jerry copied others
work as I have NEVER come across his methods
before. I would like to see proof.
Just like Jerry outlined I eliminated problems one
at at time as they arose. I used to try and train to
the way I wanted them but this is backward, you
train out the problems leaving what you want left over.
Funny part is the second dog who had the same
problems as the other didn't need correcting for
some of his habits after I cleared it from the first
dog.
Seemed he learned through osmosis.
Nice side benefit there.
It nearly came to giving them up to a 3rd party
trainer as they were not performing well. The
VAST majority of working dog trainers are
agressive in their actions with the dogs.
I tried it and it didn't work and guess what I
was at my "Whits End" then someone I new
turned me onto Jerry and the rest is history.
I referred friends and families to Jerry's manual
and all have had great results. Starting puppies
out on the distraction technique is especially
good because they never develop the habit.
I had my sisters dog healing, sitting and down
stay reliably at 8-9 weeks. The first night home
following Jerrys advice we ditched the crate and
put the pup on the floor beside the bed and after
2 whimpers NOT A SOUND OUT OF THAT DOG
FOR 6 HRS! first night, that has never happened
in all my days.
Sorry, the man understands dogs its that simple.

walking and she could go.. and if there wasn't

Then when she got done doing *her* thing, she would
heel.. smile at me and wait for me to say "let's go"
and finish *my* thing. I would refuse to move .. i
looked like an idiot.. freezing mid walk for minutes
waiting for *my* dog to heel and give *me* permission

I did the treats and the let's go... she got to do her

I wound up calling Jerry.. as I have a half red nose

we had a new pup on the way.. and i needed help.. i
followed petsmarts trainnign guides.. memorized them...
and they *did* work, don't get me wrong.. but only
when my pet wanted a cookie or felt the cookie was
better than what she wanted.. which was not often.
She quickly learned to ignore my commands if she
could see my hands were empty. So I called Jerry...
he chatted me for about an hour and a half.. gave me
his link... and even when i had probs intro'ing the
pup he called me withn i5 mins of my email for help
at 10pm on a sunday night.
One.. singular.. uno family pack exercise after
the hot and cold exercise and i could zig zag
down my street.. about face .. whatever.. and
never had tension.
two men were acrossed the street and she walked right
by them... ordinarily she'd snarl and protect us.
And in two days.. my dog.. who bit the puppy if he
even looked like he was going near my husband or kids..
is nursing him every hour.. cleaning him.. rough housing
gently.. and teaching him to go potty outside..
actually watches him to make sure he doesn't go in
the house... and has milk.. which is awesome since
she's 19 months old and has never had a litter.
She also has stopped barking non stop at our neighbor's
dogs and pig.. does not bark at eveyr car that drives by
and has stopped jumping on people. she's even starting
to ignore our cat who has lived on her dome litter box
and our window sill (literally) for over a year and a half.
She also does her commands on cue.. and doesn't look for a treat.

Subject: The Amazing Jerry's take on psychobabble
Date: Fri, 29 Jul 2005 12:13:44 -0400
You might improve the learning of folk who actually
live with and train dogs to do useful things if you
excluded everyone who uses psychobabble from your lists.
I recommend to all of you who wish to taste the flavor
of sensible animal behaviorists to read THE MISBEHAVIOR
OF ORGANISMS, Breland and Breland.
This married pair of psychologists began the long trail
of highly trained animals who are symbolized by Shamu
eating a mackrel from a girl's hand instead of eating
the much more tasty pretty girl who is exactly the size
of the natural food of killer whales, seals. Yum!
The essay, by the way, is a chapter in B.F. Skinner's
summing up book, CUMULATIVE RECORD. They include a
sentence which more or less says, "unless you understand
the personal history of the particular animal, and the
history of this animal's species and group, the developmental
history of the animal, you cannot effectively train the animal.
Pigs root and hen's scratch, if you try to train hens without
scratching or pigs without scratching or pigeons without pecking,
you aren't going to have much success.
A conditional reflex is one which is learned, the original
primitive reflex occurs no matter what the history of the
animal, and is hard wired. If you train the animal to respond,
say by ringing a bell immediately before turning on a bright
light, then you've taught the animal and made his native reflex
of pupil constriction conditional upon the ringing of a bell.
Thorndyke added some terminology to this kind of training
and insisted that when you train the animal to make gross
motor responses that this learning is "instrumental", the
animal takes action and uses an instrument.
The Russian word translated as "conditional" in all other
contexts was mistranslated by Pavlov's American translator,
Horsley Gannt, as "conditioned" and so American psychology
went haring after phantasmagora.
The major theorists for the development of the language of
operant conditioning are Edward Thorndike, John Watson, and
B. F. Skinner. Their approach to behaviorism played a major
role in the development of American psychology.
They proposed that learning is the result of the application
of consequences; that is, learners begin to connect certain
responses with certain stimuli. This connection causes the
probability of the response to change (i.e., learning occurs.)
Thorndike labeled this type of learning instrumental. Using
consequences, he taught kittens to manipulate a latch (e.g.,
an instrument). Skinner renamed instrumental as "operant"
because in this learning, one is "operating" on, and is
influenced by, the environment. Where classical conditioning
illustrates S-->R learning, operant conditioning is often
viewed as R-->S learning since it is the consequence that
follows the response that influences whether the response
is likely or unlikely to occur again.
It is through operant conditioning that
voluntary responses are learned.
One should note that Russian Psychology did very well
without the operant language, and only pettifogging
university professors ought to worry about what kind
of label we attach to the learning. Pfui!
Even Skinner understood this!
And please note if you saw the original movie, THE
MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE, you saw a Chinese psychologist
who was based on Andrew Salter, CONDITIONED REFLEX
THERAPY.
Alas, Salter didn't have a Ph.D., but he basically rescued
us from the long Freudian nightmare and returned psychotherapy
to a scientific basis. Alas, the 2nd movie didn't even cite
Salter as a source. "...all the highest nervous activity, as
it manifests itself in the conditional reflex, consists of a
continual change of these three fundamental processes --
excitation, inhibition and disinhibition." Ivan P. Pavlov

Subject: Doggy advice
Scott, Jerry Howe forwarded me the letter below.
I'm glad that you referred negatively to Jerry's
habit of CAPITALIZING and HOWEING everything.
I personally hate this habit of his. I think it is his
way of diluting his authority - IME he is a very modest
fellow. However, contrary to your sneer, he is very
competent at living with dogs.
I thought I'd list a series of actions which I found
on the list, folk asking advice on what to do about
dogs doing this and that, for example:
whining,
humping, hunching,
pacing,
self mutilation - paw licking, side sucking,
spinning,
prolonged barking, barking at shadows,
overstimulated barking,
fighting, bullying other dogs,
compulsive digging,
compulsive scratching,
compulsive chewing,
frantic behavior,
chasing light, chasing shadow,
stealing food,
digging in garbage can,
loosing house (toilet) training.
inappropriate fearfulness
aggression.
The thing that is fascinating to me, as an ethologist who
graduated from college 50 years ago and has spent all of
the intervening time working with animals (including the
human animal), is that you never see any of these behaviors
in wild dingoes, jackals, coyotes or wolves, you don't even
see these behaviors in hyenas (who aren't dog related).
You see these behaviors in human managed animals, especially
animals who live with neurotic hysterical humans.
As Sam Corson (Pavlov's last student) demonstrated for
nearly 50 years at Ohio University (Oxford, O.) there
is no treatment more useful for dogs than tender loving
care.

news:
I have been trying for the last 18 months to help my
dog who became fear aggressive at 18 month of age.
I do not know what started the problem but he came
aggressive first with dogs and then began lunging and
snapping at people. Until this time he loved everyone
and could play with any dog. He was well socialized
ad I took him with me everywhere.
At 13 months he passed the Canine Good Citizens
Test except he could let me leave him. I had used
clicker training to teach him manners and tricks but
it was not working on his aggression problem.
I took him to vets who suggested a low protein diet,
trainers who charged $800 to only make him worse.
They tried to use a prong collar and he froze, urinated
and tried to climb on my head to help him. they then
suggested a shock collar I knew this approach was not
working as he was becoming more aggressive.
I took him to an animal behaviorist with Ph. D. 400 miles
away who told me to "KEEP HIM SAFE" and read a book
on the fearful canine. I tried another trainer who tried to
use a nylon chock collar but it only made him worse.
I read hundreds of books,"CULTURE CLASH", "DOG
ARE FROM NEPTUNE", "THE OTHER END OF THE
LEASH", ETC looking for help. We finally went to Purdue
University Small Animal Behavior Clinic and they said he
had fear aggression, punishment would not work, use the
gentle leader and when out walking and he got stressed
have the people stop until he could get in control using
treats, and work on clicker training.
At that point I knew more about clicker training and using
the gentle leader than they did! Nothing was working--he
would not come when I called him and would run away when
I tried to catch him. I was afraid to walk him even in the
neighborhood as we had become that "mean dog and women who
hasn't trained her dog"
I went to four trainers in both Michigan and Florida who
were trainer/specialists in aggression and the last two
were so afraid of him they could not approach him. No one
said I should give up on him and kill him but they would
say "You have to realize he is dangerous and you are
responsible for him."
*(You got LUCKY, Linda... They coulda got Sunshine
DEAD on us. Damned near did... too.)
As last resort I tried the internet again--I had had on
going discussions with trainers from Triple Crown and Dr
Meister with out any help-and I found the ad to Doggy Do
Right and messaged Jerry to ask if this might help my dog.
He said solving the aggression problem was EZ but I could
not believe him even when I downloaded the manual.
The name of the method was right I was at my Wits End.
I had been working for 18 months!
Using the can sound three time he came, and still comes
from anywhere with the command-"comegoodboy" Next
I tried the can when walking him--when he saw a dog three
blocks away he went off-lunging and snapping-I used the
can sound and he looked at me like uhn?
I used it three more times and we got to the other dog-
-the looked at me wagging his tail--the other person
looked at me like why are shaking that can but just walked
on by.
When ever I try to explain about the sound people look at
me like "you must be out of your mind"
The results can make a believer!!!
Three weeks since beginning the Wits End Training
Manual program I walked him without the gentle leader
in a busy shopping area with many dogs.
He just seemed to not notice any one.
When people talked to him or ask his name he would
look at then and wag his tail and let then pet him.
I still can not believe the change in him--we can now
enjoy life out in public.
If I had not found the Wits End method I know there
was no hope for him and he would have hurt someone
Through all this he never growled at me, guarded his
toys or food or showed any sign of aggression with me.
My goal is to get the message out to all dog lovers that
dogs can be trained fast, easily and problems solved with
out force, pain, food or anything but sound and praise!!!!
I know most people would have given up on him a long time
ago but he was and is my life. Solving the problem was EZ
but only with the right approach-sound and praise.
I know because I tried everything else and nothing worked!!!

Thanks for writing--I would be happy to do almost anything
to get your approach out to dog owners as I know it would
save so many lives. I know at times I was so frustrated I
thought of giving up on Sunshine but of course I never would
have but many people would have. The world just does not
know you can train a dog in just a few sessions and actually
solve problems.
We will be here until late April and we really have no plans-
-just to enjoy the warmth and sun of Florida, so any time
you could meet us would be great. I drive so I would be
happy to come to you anytime anywhere!
We went to Celebration today and two little poodles got
right into his face and he just sat there--I GOT a little
scared but he handled it just fine.--a couple of times people
would ask his name and want to pet him and he just went
to them tail wagging and rolled over for them rub his tummy.
He really just is not concerned about people passing, even
those on rollerblades! I have always used a gentle leader
in public but he spent most of time rubbing his face on the
grass--today I used his collar and he was so much happier!!
Only problem is he will stop to smell and I can not get
stopped soon enough to keep the leash loose. He never
pulled ahead of me but when he gets into smelling I have
a hard time getting him going--at times I think he could
smell a blade of grass for 10 minutes.
I can never thank you enough for giving Sunshine back!!!!!
I wrote to Purdue and told them about him being able to
walk in a crowd with out the /gentle leader and not having
a problem with other people and dogs.
I told them their advice did not work. Their advice was
to use the gentle leader at all times and when he was
around people or dogs to have him sit and reward with
treats--one really good suggestions was to have people
coming toward us stop when he got stressed or aroused
and not move until we backed away-
- can you just see me yelling at people to stop on the street
until I get his attention with treats.
They also suggested the possibility of using drugs-prozac-
but thought he was too dangerous as the drug would make
him less fearful and then he might attack or become more
sure of himself and become dominate aggressive. Just had
to share their great advice with you but I am sure you have
heard it all--even I am becoming an expert on bad advice.
INTRO TO WITS' END DOG TRAINING MANUAL
George von Hilsheimer, Ph.D. F.R.S.H.
Several years ago one of my old students telephoned
to me and asked me what I knew about Doggie Do
Right, a device to cause your neighbor's dog to stop
barking.
I had not heard of the device, nor its inventor, Jerry
Howe, but I telephoned, read his website, and told
my graduate that I thought the device was worth a
trial - indeed I shut up the dogs in my neighborhood
by turning on Jerry's supersonic device.
After all we all know that dogs respond to whistles
humans cannot hear, so why not respond to "attaboy"
sounds which humans cannot hear.
My student lived far from my Florida homestead, so
he tried it on the three incredibly savage, hyperactive
and noisy dogs who lived behind a tall fence just 3 feet
back of his bedroom.
Hot rats! The device worked,
Andy got his sleep and I didn't think much of the
matter again.
A few months ago I had new neighbors on each
side of my house, four of them, all with noisy
unshuttupable dogs. Argh!
So I foned Andrew in Virgina, received the intelligence
that his neighbors dogs were still quiet, and then I foned
Jerry Howe, the inventor of Doggie Do Right, who came
to visit me.
Merlin walked into my office.
Jerry is a slender fellow with a belly button lenghth grey
beard tapering down his chest. I liked him immediately,
and I applied his instrument to the neighborhood again
which again became silent.
It occured to me that if this ultrasonic field worked with
dogs that we ought at least to ask the question, what
happens to humans in range of the device???
I asked Jerry to give me a list of customers and began
inquiring among them. One thing became immediately
evident. The Doggie Do Right not only shuts up your
neighbors' dogs, it calms and modifies your husband's behavior.
Holey Moley, Captain Marvel, this device has major potential.
In the meantime Jerry gave me a copy of his Wits End
Dog Training Manual. I was delighted. He also introduced
me to the world of professional dog trainers some of whom
even have Ph.D.s in psychology.
This was not such a delight as it appeared that none
of these luminaries had actually read Skinner, Lazarus
or other fountains of wisdom in psychology. Indeed, it
seemed as though they knew very little about the laws
of behavior at all!
Punishment and confrontation seemed to be their
major stock in trade.
Well, if you go to my website, www.drbiofeedback.com
you can read of the career of Sam Corson, I.P. Pavlov's
last student.
Sam demonstrated that rehabilitation of hyperactive
dogs can easily and readily be done using TLC, tender
loving care is at the root of the scientific management
of doggies.
Pavlov told us so 100 years ago.
So what are these degreed morons doing punishing
dogs, and shouting "NO" into their doggie faces? If
you pick up B.F.Skinner's last book, CUMULATIVE
RECORD, included in it is an essay by Keller Breland
and Maryann Breland entitled THE MISBEHAVIOR OF ORGANISMS.
Skinner deliberately included his students' chapter
to emphasize that you cannot manage the behavior
of animals unless you take into consideration 1. the
animal's evolutionary niche (who is the animal?);
2. the animal's personal history (who is the animal?)
and 3, the instinctive repetoire of the animal (who is
the animal?) and 4. the personality of the animal (who is the
animal?).
The Brelands moved far from the white rat. "Thirty-eight species,
totaling over 6,000 individual animals, have been conditioned, and
we have dared to tackle such unlikely
subjects as reindeer, cockatoos, raccoons, porpoises,
and whales. "
Jerry Howe spends most of his times with dogs, but
he has learned Pavlov's lesson well. Dogs are individuals,
they are individual DOGS, and they respond most directly
and immediately to love and tender loving care.
Read with pleasure, and then go love your dog.

Who's Who Honoree since 1983
----------------------------
http://www.belfield.com/article5.html
Canine Hip Dysplasia (CHD), a crippling disease of the coxofemoral
joint (hip), was first observed and reported in 1945 by the late Dr.
Gary Schnelle. Dr. Schnelle was the staff radiologist at Angels
Memorial Hospital at Boston, Massachusetts and reported his
observations in The North American Veterinarian Journal and termed the
condition "Congenital Coxofemoral Subluxation". Though "congenital", by
definition, means "existing at birth but not hereditary", Schnelle
theorized the cause to be a recessive gene. Today, this condition is
associated with the large breeds of canines, however Schnelle's initial
observations were in the smaller breeds i.e., cocker spaniels,
terriers, etc..
During the 1960's, Dr. Wayne Riser, a veterinary pathologist,
collaborated with a geneticist and postulated the concept that CHD was
"polygenetic with environmental overtones" and during this time frame,
the term "Canine Hip Dysplasia" was born. There has been a string of
professionals who have perpetuated the heredity theory even until the
present. We have been encouraged to breed selectively, alter, and in
some cases, euthanize the afflicted canines. This is what the
veterinary experts have been insisting the dog breeders and fanciers do
to prevent CHD for the past fifty-two years. Is it possible we have
been on the wrong track for more than a half century? One authority, of
a veterinary teaching institution in a personal correspondence to the
author, admitted the "experts" have failed to solve the CHD problem.
In 1976, The author published his observations ("Chronic Subclinical
Scurvy and Canine Hip Dysplasia") in his small animal practice through
the administration of vitamin C to prevent CHD. Whether this concept
has been accepted or not it has sparked controversy, and has some
veterinarians reassessing the archaic heredity theory. There are two
unanswered relevant questions the "experts" have failed to answer to
prove the heredity theory.
1. What is the action of the gene/genes, how do they create the
disease?
2. How does the veterinary practitioner differentiate between a hip
subluxation due to trauma (injury) from true CHD?
Since the mid 1970's, the author has been successful in preventing CHD
through the administration of nutritional supplements to the pregnant
female and within hours of birth to the newborn.
As earlier presented, the first canines observed with CHD were the
smaller breeds; yet today the larger canines are most affected. The
reason for this phenomenon is that the present day dog food is
considerably more nutritious than that being fed in the 1940's, i.e.,
more attention is now being given to nutritional requirements. The
requirements that have been established over the past four decades have
eliminated the CHD problem in the smaller breeds but these requirements
are not adequate for the large and giant breeds. One cannot expect the
nutritional requirements for a Chihuahua be the same for that of a
Great Dane. When these large and giant breeds of canines are adequately
subsidized through nutritional supplementation, the condition is
prevented.
CHD must be more specifically defined. At the present, any abnormality
in the coxofemoral joint is considered hip dysplasia. The first
photograph shows a dog who was diagnosed with unilateral dysplasia. No
consideration was given to the history of this patient. The fact of the
matter is, this subluxation was due to a falling bail of hay impacting
the right pelvic region. Bitches often sit on their new born causing
subluxations which are not manifested for some weeks later when the
pups begin to walk. For this reason the author, in his practice, does
not diagnose or recognize "unilateral" hip dysplasia.
The second photograph is without a doubt CHD. Both hips are subluxated
with accompanying osteoarthritis. The problem of CHD is directly
associated with collagen synthesis. Inadequate collagen synthesis will
adversely affect osteogenesis (development and formation of bone),
chondrogenesis (development and formation of cartilage), and myogenesis
(develop and formation of muscle). These three physiological processes
are dependent on good collagen synthesis which is dependent on good
nutrition.
Research biochemists, during the 90's, have established the involvement
of good nutrition for good collagen synthesis. This supports the
author's concept set forth in 1976 that CHD is nutritionally related
rather than hereditary. If it can be established that these alleged
genes, in fact, inhibit bone, cartilage, and muscle formation, then it
would be possible to control dysplasia through nutritional
supplementation. Some genetic tendencies can be overridden by other
factors, such as nutritional supplementation. The bottom line is, if
CHD can be prevented be it hereditary or nutritional there is more to
gain than to lose with the nutritional concept.
The author has developed a nutritional protocol for the prevention and
control of CHD. The protocol begins with the pregnant bitch. To ensure
a healthy pregnancy, the female is administered Mega C Plus. This
supplement will aid in the maintenance of a good pregnancy and a
healthy litter. This vitamin/mineral compound will enhance immune
function and most importantly, aid in the synthesis of collagen while
the pups are developing in utero. After the birth of the litter, Mega C
Drops (pediatric formula) is administered to each pup within two hours
and is continued through weaning. Mega C Drops is a formula containing
hydrolyzed protein (collagen), vitamin C as sodium ascorbate, plus
other essential nutrients that enhances collagen synthesis. Post
weaning, the pups are placed on a Mega C Plus regimen through two years
of age.
The author discusses CHD, at the cell level, in the forthcoming
textbook "Complementary and Alternative Veterinary Medicine: Practices
and Principle" published by Mosby. There has been extensive research in
recent years concerning collagen synthesis by many renown biochemists
that supports the author's nutritional concept. This new textbook is
targeting veterinary practitioners and educators and will be available
September, 1997.

PRECIPITATED by STRESS and POOR DIET:
by Sylvia Hammarstrom
The following article has been provided by the above author.
All copy rights are held by the author and any reproduction
of this material in whole or in part must have the authors
approval.
As you probably know by now, I 'm a great believer in
nutrition, "YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT". I feel strongly that a
good natural diet will prevent many health problems later
in your dogs life, eg; skin problems, cancer, arthritis,
and most important HIP DYSPLASIA.
Hip dysplasia is actually a form of arthritis of the
hipbones, which is often discovered as loose joints shown
in an X-ray.
I have raised dogs here at SKANSEN KENNEL for 25 plus
years. I have raised several working breeds like the German
Shepherd and Rottweilers, as well as the Schnauzers. In all
of these years, It have NEVER raised a clinically dysplastic
dog . I 'm quite sure the general public would have a difficult
time believing this.
Statistically, I certainly should have ended up with at least
one or two out of the hundreds of dogs that I have raised.
The fact is, I never have and have often wondered why I was
so lucky, or what factor was present for me that wasn't there
for other people .
I have finally come to the conclusion that HIP DYSPLASIA
simply is a lack of VITAMIN C in your dogs diet. Almost all
dogs in the U. S . are raised on commercial dog food- with
no NATURAL VITAMIN C.
True, the manufacturers add ascorbic acid, but this chemical
form of Vitamin C just isn't good enough. Your dog MUST get
Vitamin C in his diet on a daily basis from a natural source,
like fresh vegetables or RAW MILK or Vitamin C made from a
VEGETABLE SOURCE"
Here's another EXXXCELLENT study on dysplasia
and vitamin C: http://www.workingdogs.com/doc0039.htm
> She has since been on Glucosamine.
Yeah, I had EXXXCELLENT results using Glucosamine
and Condroitin with an older dog who suffered an
injury. Took just a few days to see a REMARKABLE
improvement. LikeWIZE vitamin C may have an anti
inflamatory effect and could possibly CURE or
PREVENT dysplasia which is similar to SCURVEY:
http://www.johnpratt.com/items/docs/health/packer/antioxidants.html
Does your daily food supplement contain 50 mg of lipoic acid?
Mine does. Did I even know that name until recently? No. So
what's the big deal with antioxidants?
My wife has been taking antioxidants, which I had understood
were some kind of immunity booster. I took vitamins and minerals
and didn't get sick much, so I figured my immunity was okay.
Recently I've read a book which has changed my life by
summarizing the vast amount of research which has been
done in the past few decades on antioxidants and their
role in preventing degenerative diseases.
If you read the Antioxidant Miracle you won't be without
antioxidants afterward. Dr. Lester Packer is perhaps the
world's leading authority on antioxidants, having pioneered
much of the research himself at Packer Lab at U. C. Berkeley
over the last three decades.
The level of research is not mostly anecdotal, like, "I
took vitamin E and my heart didn't hurt as much." Instead,
it is at the high scientific level of being able to induce
heart disease in laboratory animals by simply withholding
vitamin E, and then seeing them improve when it is restored.
There are clinical studies involving thousands of patients,
which provide overwhelming evidence that antioxidants are
major factors in preventing cancer, heart disease, strokes,
Alzheimer's disease, arthritis and a host of others.
How long will it take us to get it? To figure out what we
need to do to be healthy? To discover that major fatal diseases
can be prevented by simple diet and supplements?
The answer is often measured in centuries.
Consider the killer disease scurvy, caused by a lack of vitamin C:
A.D. 1227: Gilbertus de Aguilla advised sailors to bring
ample apples, pears, and lemons to avoid getting scurvy.
A.D. 1500's: World explorers Vasco de Gama and Magellan
reported losing over half their crew to scurvy.
A.D. 1753: British physician James Lind published his
results of testing several supposed cures. He found
that sailors with scurvy who ate two oranges and one
lemon per day were cured in a few days.
A.D. 1795: British Admiralty begins to require sailors
to eat lemons and limes and scurvey ceases to be a problem.
Why did it take 500 years to for sailors to take the advice
seriously to eat citrus fruit? And why 42 years after it was
published by a physician? Probably because it is hard to believe
that such a simple thing as eating an orange can prevent such
a horrible disease.
Why are we so loathe to believe the idea today that so many
of our killers today such as cancer and heart disease can
be prevented by getting enough of the substances found in
fresh fruits and vegetables and other healthy foods?
Perhaps in the past we had the excuse of a lack of evidence,
but today that dodge is no longer an acceptable excuse for
neglecting healthy practices. And Dr. Packer points out that
a healthy diet is not nearly enough, we need to supplement
our modern diets to get the optimum amounts of these antioxidants.
Dr. Packer explains that of the hundreds of known antioxidants
there are five which seem to be the most important, and which
operate as a network, meaning that they help balance and recycle
each other. Cells are essentially filled with water surrounded
by a fatty wall, so both fat and water soluble varieties are
important.
Two of the network antioxidants are water soluble (vitamin C
and glutathione), two are fat soluble (vitamin E and CoQ10),
and one (lipoic acid) is both fat and water soluble. The
importance of this latter team member has only been known in
the last decade. It may be the most important of all and most
daily supplement manufacturers don't even include it.
I have made a table summarizing the main results presented
in The Antioxidant Miracle , including the optimum amounts
recommended by Dr. Packer. It fits well on one page if printed
in landscape mode. There are also links to a few bulleted
charts below which summarize the importance of each of the
network antioxidants and some others.
After reading his book, I went to both grocery and health
food stores and hunted for a supplement that had something
close to all his optimum amounts of antioxidants, as well
as other usual vitamins and minerals. I found none.
It is possible to buy most of them separately, but that
is very expensive and way too hard for me to open all
those bottles twice a day. I found that simply looking
for at least 50 mg of lipoic acid is a good test of the
entire supplement because few companies have kept up
with the most recent research.
The best I've found so far are Life-Pak Prime by Pharmanex,
which is about $70 per month but is guaranteed to be very
high quality, the one by Dr. David Williams which has more
in it for about $55, and one you can get at health stores
called Life Essence for about $30 per month. Find better
if you can, but in any case, if you read his book, you will
build up your antioxidant protection. But if you are taking
prescribed medication, you should check with your doctor
before adding new supplements to your diet to verify compatibility.

Breakfast At The Puppy Wizard's -
Chez du Chien - Gourmet Recipies
Here's HOWE The Puppy Wizard feeds his dogs:
HOWEDY People,
Unbeknownst to yourselves, this has been a difficult
couple weeks for Your Puppy Wizard. Not to complain,
but he's been necessarily temporarily abandoned by
his Mrs.Puppy Wizard who had to attend to affairs out
of town for nine days.
Left alone, helpless and hapless to cope with domestic
and personal needs, to fend for HISSELF and his pups by
his own devices, his Mrs. Puppy Wizard HOWEver, is
considerate and foresighted enough to prepare His table
before him, in advance, and even calls to remind him to
breath, when necessary.
Your Puppy Wizard requires little from the physical realm,
existing primarily on prahana and nirvana as his staple diet.
HOWEver, HIS puppies unfortunately cannot thrive in the
physical world without the grounding effects of the evils
of wholesome food.
Mrs. Puppy Wizard prepares daily, fresh, well balanced
HOWES cooked meals. When Mrs. Puppy Wizard travels
occasionally, she prepares for the days of lean in advance,
by freezing two weeks worth of puppy chow and posting the
culinary instructions on the Puppy Wizard's coffee can, the
only physical need The Puppy Wizard requires, beyond his
internet connection and of course, his Mrs. Puppy Wizard
and puppies. But those are givens, naturally.
Mrs. Puppy Wizard prepares 2 meals a day. The following
recipe is for about a 100 pound dog:
Breakfast is half pound raw ground turkey, green
Source, and 1gram vitamin C, and a *Iams cookie
*(cause she LIKES to).
Dinner is 2 cups cooked rice, a tablespoon of rolled
oats and an ounce of hamburg. When the rice and oats
cool, add half cup pinto or similar beans, ground fine
in the food processor with equal amounts raw collard or
similar greens or your dog's favorite vegetable or cabbage,
a tablespoon or two Olive or Cannola oil, half clove garlic,
mixed with 1/2 pound raw ground turkey, a good vitamin /
mineral supplement (Green Source for People), calcium and
magnesium, 1 gram vitamin C.
Addition of table scraps is encouraged, bear in mind
salt can be dangerous. The Puppy Wizard's diet is
environmentally friendly and will not produce noxious
gasses provided the vegetable and beans are ground
finely and because the Green Source contains digestive
enzmyes.

"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.
**********IS THAT A CONSISTENT 5 SECONDS?************
When our dog was a puppy, "No" came before mild
forms of punishment (I would hold my dog's mouth

To my mind, "naive" is believing you can terrorize a dog.
Naive is believing that people that hide behind fake

names. Naive is thinking that dilettante dog breeders
and amateur "trainers" like Joey (lyingdogDUMMY, j.h.)
are the equal or better than those that have studied and
lived by their craft for decades.
"Stupid" is believing that people do not see kindergarten

Why do you act like fools? I really have no idea, and I

Dear Jerry, I paged through some of the "dog business"
and was astonished at the low quality of opinions arising
from professors of behavior analysis.
I had the very great privilege of meeting Sam Corson
(Pavlov's last Ph.D. student) and his dogs at Ohio
University. I even got to spend a night at Sam's house.
There is no question but that you are a spiritual brother
to Corson and to Pavlov, both of whom knew that the dog's
great capacity for love was the key to shaping doggie behavior.
Paradoxical reward and paradoxical fixing of attention are
both well documented Pavlovian techniques. Even so humorless
a chap as B.F. Skinner taught students like the Breland's whose
"The Misbehavior of Organisms" demonstrate the utility of your
methods and their deep roots in scientific (as opposed to
commercial) psychology.

Ok, so I care for an unusually large number of cats...
And when you have this many, there are behavior
problems. Not due to crowding, but some cats are
territorial by nature.
I checked out Jerry's site and found the science behind
the BIOSOUND box to be sound. (no pun intended <G)
I am familiar with the concept of using sound therapy
from my studies on deep meditation and had experimented
with it already.
So, I bought one.
Results?
The cats now sleep thru the night instead
of spatting at 3 a.m.
Taz, my brain damaged kitty, no longer wanders up the
hall in the middle of the night, yowling when he gets "lost".
(He's not the brightest bannana in the bunch. ;-) )
He's been sleeping quietly at my feet now for the past 3
nights I left the box running. He suffered a severe head
injury as a kitten when he got hit by a car. That is how I
got him. I picked him up out of the middle of the highway. :-(
Thank the gods for good vets...
Feeding frenzy time, when I dole out the canned food,
used to be fraught with the more dominant kitties hissing
at the undercats to get the best place at mom's feet. They
always settled down once the food dishes were down, but
now there has been NO fighting!
They have been more obedient about staying off the
sink and the dining room table, and, whomever it was
that kept pooping in FRONT of the litter box on the floor
has quit!
Yay! I never did catch who was doing it.
Overall, much calmer behavior from the cats.
As for the dogs, the jury is still out on them. The
shelties seem unaffected but it's impossible to
tell with them as they were already calm, sedate,
obedient and well trained dogs.
With hyper Jewely, well, tonight she did not try to jump
on me when I let her out of the bedroom to go potty, and
she calmly sat at the door waiting to be let out instead of
getting all anxious. I have not really tried serious training
with her indoors near the box yet, except once, but not for
long enough to see if it'd really work.
Since some of the usual training methods are not working
with her on the jumping problem, I plan to give Jerry's method
a fair shake. The one time I tried it, yeah, she piddled, but I
think that's because I did not do it right. I spoke with Jerry
further by e-mail and I was not supposed to jump straight in
to working on a specific behavior problem. I need to to the
pre-training excercizes first!
I'll post later on the results when I have more time
to really concentrate on working with her near the box.
In the meantime, the box DOES seem to calm the
animals and make it easier to work with them. The
results alone on the cats have made it worth every
penny. And if it can increase Jewely's attention span........

Subject: My Experience with the Doggy Do Right (And Kitty Will Too)
Date: 2001-07-04 20:45:19 PST
After using Jerry's training manual, I became curious about the
Doggy Do Right (DDR) machine, and a few weeks ago I received one.
I thought the group might be interested in some things I've noticed
since using it. (This is a bit of an understatement as I certainly
expect a flurry of responses... most of them will probably be nasty.
But we'll see.)
Anyway, at first I would leave it on only when I left the house, but
one
day I forgot and left it on all night. My dogs used to wake me up
between 8 and 8:30 a.m. The morning after I left it on all night, they
slept until 9:30 a.m. At first I wondered why they had slept in so
late, and then I noticed that the DDR was on.
(And no, I'm not an early riser.) :-)
Now they consistently sleep until 9:30 or 10:00 a.m., unless I wake
them
up earlier. One night the power went out, and the DDR was switched
off. They woke me around 8:30 that day.
The second thing was something my husband noticed. If the light on the
DDR is flashing, it is in "rest" mode... when it's solid, it is playing
the program. He came home, the dogs were doing their usual growl and
"bitey face" rowdiness... when the machine's light became solid
(programon), they laid down in the same room with the machine.
Pepper even laid on her side and started taking a little nap.
Often, I will see the dogs in the room with the DDR when the program is
playing, usually around their nap time. That is, they will nap in the
same room as the machine and not in other areas of the house... even
though their "preferred" sleeping spot at other times seems to be my
bed.
The last two things I've noticed have been with my 7 yr old Dalmatian,
Beau. He is normally terrified of thunderstorms, so much that he will
try to crawl into my lap, or he will shake and shed hair everywhere.
(Shedding hair is a symptom of stress I suppose... he does the same
thing at the vet's.)
On Sunday, we had a really severe thunderstorm, with hail, etc. When
the storm began, I turned the machine to play mode. He laid on the
floor next to where I was sitting. He still didn't want to let me get
out of his sight, but his behavior was much improved from earlier
episodes.
The last thing has to do with Beau and the vacuum cleaner. The surest
way for me to clear him out of a room used to be for me to start
vacuuming. He'd race into another room and hide. Now, he will stay in
the same room. He's still wary of it, and leaves his "escape route"
open, but he will stay in the same room while I'm using it, something
he's never done before.
I've done no training to address these issues, but since using the
DDR for approximately three weeks, these are some of the calmer
behaviors that I've noticed.
As I said, I'm sure this will create a storm. May I say in advance,
that only polite posts will be considered for a response by me.
Regards, Lisa

Jerry sent me the DDR when I mentioned my cockatoo was stressed
out by
my then just learning to walk baby.
Buddy was screaming day and night..lunging at Joey whenever he
crawled
up to Buddy's cage and nipping the baby ( if Buddy wanted to his
beak
is powerful enough to sever an adult's finger in one snap!)
At first we noticed nothing... after a few days ..nothing..nothing
except quiet :-)
That's not to say Buddy never screams.. heh.. he'a a 'Too.. but
the
late night scream-a-thons ended.
He also tolerates Joey playing in his water dish <sigh> just what
I
want...2 splashers! Buddy loves to bathe in his water until
there's
more water on the floor and walls than in his dish :-)
Twice now Buddy has had marathon scream-a-thons... for a few days
each time. It takes that long for me to realize the DDR is
unplugged:-O
Once cos DH did some maintenance and forgot to plug it back in (
of
course he remembered to plug the washing machine back in ;-P)
The second time I had unplugged it while sweeping...and forgot to
plug it back in...
We sure enjoy him being such a good bird! He's been so loving to
everyone... my older 2 boys love being able to give him scritches
again.

Jerry has taken the time to help me out off the NG. I have a very
loud cockatoo who has been having problems adjusting to my 8
month old son.
Joey is learning to walk. He likes to use Buddy's cage as a hold on
for dear life object.
Buddy wasn't exposed to toddlers prior to Joey.. my older two boys
went through this stage in a different house where Buddy had his own
room and the boys had only visits, not daily contact 24/7.
Buddy has always been spooked by "tiny" humans. Joey has been driving
him nuts! He showed his disapproval by non-stop screaming. A
cockatoo scream can be heard a block away with all the widows
shut <g> being in the house it makes your ears pop and your nerves
crawl.
Jerry sent me Free his DDR. He sent instructions on how to use it.
He answered my questions quite politely.
I have been using the DDR in my kitchen ( where Buddy is located~
teensy 4 room house) for 3 weeks.
At first I noticed no difference in Buddy's behavior. Then I realized
after a week that he no longer screamed for hours on end. This isn't
to say he stopped completely <bg> he still demands his share of all
meals. But he doesn't start screaming at 10 pm when he wants
_everyone_ to go to bed.
Last week he had a day where he screamed all day. My nerves were
frazzled. I went to turn the DDR up a notch per Jerry's instructions.
I discovered the DDR was shut off! I turned it back on and left it on
the lowest setting. Buddy calmed back down and quit screaming.
In the time that I've had the DDR on I've had a lot of c*ts come to my
house. One I adopted and he's quite the sweetie. He's a yellow tiger
named Gatomon ( means c*t monster) who is very friendly with my kids
and Zelda.
I may not like how Jerry treats other posters but I do like the
methods he shares. Being on a limited budget I like things that are
free. I also like the fact that I can e-mail him and get advice
whenever
I need it.
Even my DH who is a technical minded kind of guy thinks the DDR is
working. ( He went to Devry and has a degree in electronics, knows
alot about radios and anything mechanical... he's a jack of all trades
around the house <g>). He does NDT for a living.
We don't expect to need the DDR forever.. As soon as Joey is walking,
Buddy will realize that he's not a strange animal.. some kind of
furless dog or c*t <bg>.
So, yes, there are some of us out here who do appreciate Jerry's
methods if not his condemnation of other "regulars". Honey, flies
that sort of thing....

Hi Jerry,
I received email from Mark Shaw on 10/6 which I just read today.
Sorry I didn't have time to get to it sooner. We have had a lot
going on in our area concerning animals. We formed a new Task
Force to address spay/neuter, pet overpopulation and animal
abuse. I needed to do a lot of research before the first meeting and
time was just not available for anything else.
Anyway the letter went on to say that we are in collusion, I tried
to defraud him, and have sent none of the materials that he has
asked for although he has yet to furnish the P.O. Box number that
he wanted them sent to in the first place. He goes on to state that
I am no longer eligible for the "fictions reward." All of this is in
answer to postings that prove I was "sharing" his email with you
which in his opinion was a breach of good manners. His email only
had terms and conditions of the reward which I would consider
"public information."
Be that as it may, I would like to state that you had my permission
to post any email I have sent you regarding DDR including this
email.
I'm very sorry that you have to put up with this type of situation
from someone that obviously never intended to make good on his
reward offer in the first place.
I had a call from a friend of mine with a very aggressive cat. I
have loaned her my DDR for a few weeks to see if it will calm JR
down. I will let you know the results. She goes to the same holistic
vet that I go to and he is also interested.
In case Mark does post to the list again I would like to say that I
do very much believe that DDR will help JR as I know it has helped
my dogs and cats. I have entirely too much to do, to worry about his
opinions or reward.
The only reason I was willing to apply for the reward was on your
behalf as I do think your product is a valuable tool in helping with
aggression and other behavior problems.
I am in Feral Cat Network (we spay and neuter approximately 100
feral cats a month), I am also a member of a local AKC dog
obedience club, member of a local AKC agility club, president of
Pet Rescue, board member of the Alliance for Care and Welfare of
Animals (on the board are: county commissioner, vet. rep., rep. from
AKC dog club, CFA cat club, assistant County manager, head of
animal control, director of two different shelters, etc.).
I listed these not to be on an ego trip but to let Mark know that I
am involved with animals and have very little time to play games
with him also I would not recommend your product if I did not
believe in it.
Please feel free to post this email as it has no copyright on it as
did Mark Shaw's last email to me.
Take care Jerry and don't let the Mark's of the world get you down.
Elaine
Thank you, Elaine. I have been trying to educate the mark's of this
world, with some occasional successes. I guess that's variable
reinforcement?
Yours, Jerry.

She now plays with Dok, even to the point of allowing him

Hi Jerry,
I wrote to you a week or so ago about the unit. I have since
borrowed one from Elaine Mc Clung. She speaks very
highly of it.
So, I brought it home and plugged it in. Of course, I
wanted it to come on, all the barking stop, and have every
one immediately fall to the floor in little comas for a few
hours. Well, after I got all 27 of them to be quiet, still no
comas. But, it had only been 36 seconds at that point. So,
I gave it a little longer. Still no comas. Was this really
going to work? I mean, I do have an unusual situation.
So, by bedtime, a few hours later. I started to notice just
how many were asleep already - with their feet in the air! I
started to have hope. During the night, all was calm. In the
morning when I got up, only a few of them WALKED quietly
to the door to go out. Not the usual evacuation.
I had the unit from Sunday afternoon until Tuesday
Morning. I was certainly pleased with the night effect. I
wasn't so sure about the amount of the day time effect.
Until I took it back. Within half an hour, the monsters had
resurfaced. I wondered if I could break into Elaine's house
and if she would notice :)
I know another person who does dog rescue. She rescues
Beagles. She has 23 in an 1100 square foot house. God
bless her. She is interested to see if it will work for her. I
also spoke to someone else who does cat rescue, and
she is interested. The cat rescue people have monthly
meetings. Maybe Elaine could give a word or two about it.
So, if there are any words of advice you can send my way
about the best way to use it in my case, I would appreciate
it. I of course wanted to keep it on the highest setting, but
don't know if that is advised, even with my situation of so
many new ones coming and (too few) going.
Also, how I and others can go about getting one, etc. I
think the vets should have the info in their offices. It must
help dogs with separation anxiety. My vet practices
homeopathic as well as traditional medicine, so I
would think it would be right up her alley.
Thank you.

Dear Jerry-
I just wanted to let you know how wonderful your Doggy Do
Right product is. I was skeptical at first, but have been
tremendously pleased.
As you know, we had a neighbor's dog that was extremely
bothersome, at times barking loudly for 3 hours straight.
Within a few days, the barking decreased, and now it is just
the occasional bark. this dog lives approximately 500 feet
away, and even at that distance, the machine has done wonders.
You were always available and patient to answer my
questions, and now I can be in my own home without going
nuts from the barking. As an added pleasure, all the other
minor barking nuisances in the neighborhood have stopped
as well.
Quiet is wonderful! Thank you.

Doggy Do Right and Jerry Howe
I just recently looked at this newsgroup and I found it
incredible. I do have a Doggy Do Right and have had it for
about one year. It truly does work - at least on my Dobe,
Chelsea. Chelsea was the unhappy recipient of several failed
attempts at obedience training, both in a "class" environment
and with a personal trainer. She is very high spirited and
strong and, unfortunately, spoiled, since we are an older
couple who doted on our dog. We were lucky enough to find Jerry
Howe and to not only buy a Doggy Do Right, but to also have him
personally work with Chelsea.
His methods are wonderful and effective. Chelsea is not a dog
that you will bully, and I wouldn't dream of hurting her. After
Jerry spent time with her, she no longer jumped on furniture,
ate food off the counter, pulled me incessantly on the leash.
She is calmer and we are all happier. Well, it is a very long
story and I won't bore you with all the details, but suffice it
to say that Jerry Howe saved the day for our dog and for us.
Marge Hoffman. (REWARD PAID BY DW.)
P.S. You can send me the reward money, but I won't sell you my DDR!

It's a smallish box with ac adapter. It emits a "song". A sound
unheard by the tympanic membrane. It regulates brain waves
and calms the subject down. I got mine yesterday.
I have two pitties, my neighbor on one side has an infant pitty
and the other neighbor on my left has a pitty mix, greyhound
and pig. Her dogs bark CONSTANTLY!
All hours of the night.. she lets em out for last call around 1am.
We put ours on our kicthen window sill so the animals outside
and inside can hear it. Anyway.. for the first time my dogs slept
peacefully.
I also did some training with jerry and hise wife yesterday,
between that and the machine my dogs ignored the dogs barking.
A mere quiet growl from my oldest dog, a good girl good job! and
she went back to sleep.. an abolsolute first in this house.
My nieghbors dogs continued barking.. the machine was
not set to play.. so i reset it.. and they shut right up.
The whole nieghborhood was quiet for the first time.
Neighbors dogs are still behaving today.
I will be loaning it to my father in two weeks, once my dogs
remember the "song" and can learn to replay it to themselves
to calm themselves down, for his cockatiel who is home alone
alot.. and very bitchy.
I will also be buying one for my mom for her feuding kitty cats.
And finally I will be buying one for my friend who has two dogs
and a child with major seizure problems. I think this device will
help her daughters seizures since it controls and regulates brain
waves.
Since i'm not rich.. and these machines are $135 with shipping ...
when i say I am planning on buying three of them for friends.. you
know it works. I could always let them borrow it for free.. but
this machine is so kickass.. they need their own so their
neighbors dogs can be happy too.

Fortunately, I happen to believe he is too.
I took a rescued three year old beagle that
had been kept outside all of its life that didn't
even recognize or respond to its name to
Jerry's home (That ugly cinder block shack???
get real) and in just over one hour of working
with the dog, he was coming on command
(not a quickly as he does now, but still...) and
walking with us on a loose lead.
His "hot/cold" exercise and "come when called"
command and pack exercise WORK!

Well, he's been near mine, and done wonders for him.
You don't have to like him. You don't have
to agree with his methods, but as far as I
am concerned, I've never seen any other
training approach that was as fast and easy.

one is a protective/aggressive 20 month old female who is my

he and his wife helped me with my kids.
I was and always have been a spanker. It is all i knew how.. i

Since he and his wife came down sunday we've had a HUGE change...
for the first time the kids didn't destroy my house before i woke
up... my 3yo was in my bed coloring waiting for us to wake up...
this is the first time she ever used paper :) she usually does
walls, furniture.
Anyway.. he told me to use sound/praise.. and it works. I have a
6 yo, 3.5 yo who is psycho child :) and a very bad-a$$ 19 month old.
They are all smarter than I am and know it :) There has not been a
temper tantrum in two days in my house.
You guys have no idea how great this is. But best of all.. this
method does NOT use the evil eye or a tone of that is in any way
short of absolute praise.. no shouting.. not even a quiet Chloe!..
nada..
ONLY praise.
They even taught my kids not to take candy unless i say so..
(my oldest will literally let you pierce her ears for candy..
it's been done twice and i keep taking em out) and now the bag
of blow pops i forget on the floor in my closet (where we keep
the girl's dresses) is still there and NO ONE has eaten one!
My 3 yo is even helping me pick up the house.. the baby took my
lingerie chest apart.. and she cleaned it up! first time!
They don't even go out the open door without my offering it!
they helped me sort laundry.. clean the living room... im amazed.
The 3 yo got some yogurt from the fridge andwalked to our kitchen
table, sat down and ate it.. she REFUSES to sit at the table and eat!
We also taught them and the dogs to sit pretty so when they're
climbing on my couch.. i go Can you show me how you sit pretty??
and they ALL hop down and show me to sit pretty with their feet NOT
on the cofee table.. hands friggin folded.. i almost fell over..

Your reply doesn't even pertain to the subject...
Why don't we discuss why you feel you need hurt
animals to "train" them?
I've actually met TPW. I called him a few times with
questions about the training method, and he realized
that there were some underlying problems. Axel (my dog)
had a special situation. So, TPW met with us in our home.
The first thing he noticed was that Axel's collar was too tight.
We loosened it, and immediately Axel calmed down quite a bit.
We went outside and worked on the HOT AND COLD
HANDLING EXERCISE and THE FAMILY PACK
LEADERSHIP EXERCIZE. That seemed to get us
headed in the right direction, but we were still having
a few problems with Axel's anxiety.
The main reason TPW visited our home - I found this
our recently during one of our conversations- was to
see how my husband and I interacted with one another.
I had been following the methods precisely, but Axel
was still having difficulty.
TPW's assumptions were correct - we were causing
alot of Axel's anxiety with our arguments and tension.
TPW told me that Axel has been one of his most difficult
dogs to work with.
Axel had his anxieties from mishandling and
from my husband and myself.
We had a few problems because I was unwilling to
accept the fact that I needed to be "nice" eventhough
I wasn't being treated "nicely", but once I realized that
was the only way I could really get Axel past his anxiety,
I worked on being a loving wife (eventhough I didn't really
want to be).
AND GUESS WHAT? My husband saw the difference,
and he followed suit. Now, we have a stress free dog,
and a good marriage.
Can you tell me how forcing someone (dog, person, cat)
to do what YOU want them to do, is going to improve a
situation? I tried that with my husband and with my dog,
and it didn't work with either of them.
Your methods have an 85% success rate - and my
dog was one of the 15% that doesn't accept your methods.
TPW has 100% success rate. You do the math.
If TPW hadn't helped us, Axel wouldn't be where he is today.

From: AIMEE (countrygirl0...@yahoo.com):
I own a black an tan coonhound. We got him
as a puppy, and due to constant mishandling
(pulling on his lead, negative corrections, and
the occasional use of a bark collar) I ended
up with a very anxious dog.
I couldn't leave him home alone, I couldn't
crate him, I couldn't even take my dog for
walks because he feared EVERYTHING.
I was going to have to get rid of him if things
didn't turn around.
My husband and I searched the internet for
answers - AND WE FOUND THE PUPPY WIZARD.
For all of you disbeliveers out there HIS METHODS WORK!
I've followed his manual, and we now have a
dog that can be left home alone, that heels
on command, that can go outside and NOT
be afraid of everything he sees.
Not only have his methods helped our dog, but
our marriage has gotten better. We had fallen
into a rut - constant bickering and tension, we
never laughed or had FUN together - but now,
with the same mindset used in THE PUPPY
WIZARDS dog training, our communications
channels have opened, and we now work
together instead of against one another.
For all the "Literalists" out there, NO WE DID
NOT TEACH EACH OTHER TO SIT, STAY,
OR HEEL.
We simply eliminated the nagging and the
acting out to get NEGATIVE attention from
one another since we weren't getting
the POSITIVE attention we wanted.
So, it's been proven - THE PUPPY WIZARDS
METHODS WORK.
It's up to you to accept them. Yes, there's alot
of blame that we have to accept, but once we
realize that we've caused these problems to
arise, we can strive to make things better.

Subject: House training and such...
Date: 2003-10-08 16:18:56 PST
I've been having a problem with my dog, Axel,
relieving himself in the house while I'm away
from home.
I've used TPW method's, and yesterday I was out
for 12 hours, and Axel didn't have one single "accident".
Today, I had hoped that the results would be just as
good - and they were (I was out for 11 hours).
The problem began when, as a puppy, Axel would
relieve himself in the house and I would point at the
mess and tell him "NO" or "Bad Dog".
That made him afraid to relieve himself in the house
or infront of me.
After I got TPW's training manual, I corrected my
mishandling of these instances.
When I came home to an "accident", I would simply
drop a can near the area and ask Axel "What's that?"
Then I would clean it up - with out showing him I was
the least bit upset about the mess, and when he looked
at the spot I would tell him "Good boy, you're a good dog".
This has been an ongoing problem, and thanks to the
Puppy Wizard, we've finally got it taken care of...
Also, Axel LOVES the cat's litter box...He enjoys the
"snacks" he can find in there...I followed TPW's methods
by alternating sounds and praising him while or before
he sticks his nose in it, and today, he's been going into
the room with the cat box and barking. That's because
he's thinking about getting into the box, but he knows he
shouldn't.
Thank you, Jerry, for all you help. You've been a
blessing to all of us.

Never had a chance to try them on her... I was still
using the e-fence and chains to keep her in the yard.
The suggestions I received here to keep Peach home
were: build a fence... wasn't going to happen.. we plan
on putting a modular home here within the next few years...
put more fence at the top of the pen I used so both dogs
could play bitey face w/o tangling, and similar suggestions.
Jerry was the only one to mention border training... but he
was kook supreme ;-P So I ignored him... no killfiles with
webtv.. at that time Jerry had his own troll, somewhat like
Candace, so the group was not very conducive to learning
anything. At one point I even b*tched about Jerry.
By the time I tried out Jerry's manual Peach had
already ran away.
Not very good at the google groups search but you'll find my
first post at "runaway dog message 30" within that thread is
mention of the dogs taking off and being gone for 2 days. I
stopped posting for a bit... my middle boy was devastated that
his dog was gone... Zelda came home but not her mom.
The next few posts from me were ones about/to Jerry.
Then Jerry made the WETM accessible for webbes, I put it in
my e-mail ( no storage otherwise on webby unless you put stuff
on a webpage) and read it, read it and read it.
Once I understood what the concept was, I implemented it on
Zelda. It worked and I now have a great housedog!
I only regret that my own distrust of Jerry caused me to lose
another wonderful dog. Peach was an absolute gem with little
kids. I and my boys still miss her. Sometimes I still look
to see if she came home when we get back from trips. Maybe
Peach would still have ran away... I don't know and never
will....

who ignored your advice. I did it because of how you write/wrote. I
was unwilling to accept the idea that my using a shock collar could
have
any bearing on Peach not wanting to stay home. Up until I started
using
it my main concern had been keeping my dogs in their own yard. Once I
started using the e-fence...well, then my concern became how to keep
them from running off for days on end.
I lost valuable training time becoming embroiled in the anti-shock

We just installed a PetSafe brand fence this Spring.
Two dogs, two collars We now have one dog and no
collars.
Peach and Zelda would run thru the fence, not want to
come back in the yard and would run for days. The
last time, Peach didn't come back home.
I used the Wit's End Training Manual to learn how to
train my dog. She is now border trained. A few
minutes each day reinforces her desire to stay in the
yard.
nShe no longer runs out into the road, I can stop her
from chasing cats and she no longer cringes when we
walk around the yard.
I can not say loud or long enough how much I hate the
e-fence and its collars. If you can't get a regular fence
then you need to train your dog. I will never rely on an
electronic collar to keep my dog in our yard again.
The price was too high:-(

How does diagnosis shape treatment?
Nearly every week I have a visit from Jerry Howe, who
publicizes himself as The Puppy Wizard. Jerry is a
master at behavioral modification of dogs.
His fundamental bedrock is the work Pavlov's last student,
the late Sam Corson, Ph.D., did at the U of Ohio (at Oxford,O).
Sam always pointed out if the dog stopped working for
you in the lab, Pavlov and he always took the dog away
from the lab, and put him in a loving home and gave him
TLC for a couple of months, and then started, very carefully,
over again.
Jerry believes that reward and constraint focused training
is immoral. I've watched him in one short session calm
impossible dogs, just about to be murdered (oops "put to
sleep") because of their "incorrigibly" violent behavior.
Sam was one of the first people to apply amphetamine to
hyperactivity (he searched the Middle West for hyperactive
dogs); but he never lost sight of the fundamental reality that
a dog is not a human, but does respond, doggily, to dog love.
You might be surprised to go to B. F. Skinner's "Cumulative
Record" and read the essay by Breland and Breland, "The
Misbehavior of Organisms".
Animals cannot be successfully trained unless the
trainer attends to the evolutionary history, the individual's
developmental history, and the environmental niche of
the animal being trained.
Yep, right there in Skinner's last and summary book.
Even with behavior mod, you must know the animal.
I took dinner last night with a 40ish young man (PK) whose
parents I met when he was 4. The very first night I asked
his mother about the boy, talk about HYPER! PK was ZOOOM!
I had to put a malpractice threat gun to the head of his
pediatrician to get him to try amphetamine 40 years ago.
The father of the boy became furious when the pediatrician
later started shovelling out amphetamine to almost every
little boy whose parents consulted him.
PK is a big successful man, now, and, no surprise, his
son is classically hyper. PK's sister was a gentle angel,
and so is PK's daughter. I am now training the little guy
with a Play Attention helmet, and we are skipping the
amphetamine.
However, I do think if PK showed up at age 4 today, I'd
be grateful my pediatric neighbor has his prescription
pad even though we would quickly train him and dispense
with the amphetamine within 20 sessions or so.
My fourth over neighbor has a boy who could be PK's twin.
However, if we had given him amphetamine, despite his
raging hyperactivity, we would have harmed him markedly. His
diagnosis is mild Asperger's syndrome, it was autism, and all
we did with him was EEG BF (Mom was firmly opposed to all
drugs).
Dogs or little boys, you have to know the individual history,
and the nature of he disorder.

Gee, and you can't show any abuse in my Mc Protection method, can
you. But your pals lying "I LOVE KOEHLER" lynn and freaky frantik
fraud die both BEAT their dogs to turn them on...
Now, the only question is, do their dogs get an increase in
temperature after a few minutes of being beaten like amys' retreiver
dogs tied to the tree? Do you think if we took their temperatures
there would be an increase?
I doubt it. Not for pain, marybeth. It's a different sort of emotion.
My dogs don't fear pain because they don't know it.

Funny how different dogs are so, well, different.
Java gets extremely frustrated by repeatedly
having to pick up split sheep, particularly when
I'm the reason for it. If I cause him that kind
of work too many times he'll simply take it upon
himself to work the sheep alone. It's humbling.

Like most GSDs, Java has a LOT of power. But
there's a bottle-raised wether at the barn that
is useless for herding because he ignores
pressure. He just walks towards the dog. Java
gets madder than hell at him and recognizes him
on sight :-)

Boy, are you ever right about that, Fred! We've had 2 in the
past 2 weeks that were a real "challenge & opportunity". One
was a private plane that crashed into a mtn. side and gave all
sorts of opportunities to learn about ELT emergency signals
and stabilizing aircraft to extract a body. The other was a
person with a psychotic disorder that was running and hiding
from the searchers. What was interesting about that was that
his scent was everywhere because he was looping and crossing
within an area multiple times. I learned tons about scent
pooling and aging from the Bloodhound/Coonhound cross I was
working with.
I've never seen a trailing dog give a clearer indication of a
problem on a trail or lost scent. She would raise her head,
shake out the accumulated drool & scent, and try again. If
she didn't pick up the scent, she would turn and try at right
angles to both sides, shaking out each time. 3 shake outs and
she would turn and look for further direction from the humans.
That dog is incredibly easy to read. So easy that I could
almost "see" the way scent was moving from her actions.
There were 2 other searches in the same time period and 2 new
Bloodhound pups to start training. My big learning from them
is that Bloodhound pups are not necessarily looking for a
place to pee when their noses are on the ground - their noses
are always on the ground!
And it isn't just in SAR work. A trainer I work with made a
brilliant call recently on a really sharp/shy dog. He quickly
picked up that the dog has CEA and has no peripheral vision.
I was indeed impressed.
Frankly, if I ever think I know it all or am not open to
learning something from every incident and every dog, I hope
to hell someone tells me to hang up both my uniform and my
leashes. And I'll always be distrustful of anyone who claims
to know everything.

- That I don't agree with the conventional wisdom of
scores of "3" across the board in the Volhard test
indicate the best SAR prospect.
- That a bringsel alert is not the best choice for a long
backed dog in very hilly terrain with large distances
between handler & victim.
- That GSDs should be given more time to mature
and brought along more slowly than Labs or BCs.
- That endurance should be tested earlier in a training program.
Since you asked. (All of which has nothing

the dog in a sit-stay next to you with most of the

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

important - the correction must be physically very

Jo,
The correct solution to your problem is quite
simple, you haven't yet established a 'reliable
punishment cycle' for your dog.
The complete explanation can be quite complex,
but the shortened version is.. if you try to
stop a dog doing something by punishing it
and the dogs behaviour does not diminish or
extinguishthen the level of punishment that
you have administered is not high enough.
All dogs just like people have there own different
thresholds to pain and punishment, just as some
people have a high tolerance for criticism, some
dogs have a high tolerence for correction.
You should escalate your correction to a level
where the dog yelps when you punish him, thus
making the experience one which the dog will
want to avoid in the future.

Um, may I suggest a re-wording that might make
it clearer- given that "scruff shake" is too easily
misinterpreted as "pick the puppy up by the scruff
of the neck and shake the puppy in the air"?
"The actual quote is misleading when taken out of context"
I think I'd phrase it something like "if the puppy is very
persistant, it can be appropriate to take hold of the
loose skin at the back of the neck and give a slight
shake to the *skin*".
Janet's not talking about actually shaking
the puppy, which I think we ALL agree is
abusive."
