Janet:
Thanks for the offer. Muttley was at one time under the care of Fallston
Animal Rescue Mission FARM), who may have named him "Buddy" or "Champ". My
friend Helene originally found him, and she arranged for me to pick him up
at the Jarrettsville Veterinary Clinic, who performed his exam, shots, and
castration. I took him to the same SPCA where you teach, and decided to do
something to save him from being put down.
I have learned that there are dog obedience classes at Lutherville-Timonium
Elementary and also Carroll Manor, but I don't know the times and dates. I
usually work in Westminster until 7 on Mondays (and Thursdays). I can
attend this coming Tuesday's class, which I assume is for owners only. By
then I should know details of the other classes. I will contact you
directly for more details and confirmation.

Clip his claws, neuter him, and use a squirt bottle
with water when he "attacks". You mayb also talk
to your vet about drug therapy. Place the cat if
you can't deal with this.

Rudy, my golden foster puppy, is a wonderful puppy. He is mostly
housebroken (not a good idea to wake up to greet DH without going out
first!), beautifully crate trained (had not been by his first 2
homes), obedient and snuggly and charming. For the most part, unless
ignored, sits politely for greeting and is generally a delight.
So why is he still here after 2+ weeks? I've had 5 interested
parties. I think the almost-6 months and high energy has scared
enough others away. 2 homes have been approved by the rescue org, but
neither is suitable (mutual agreement). The other 3 haven't been
approved yet, but I'm doubting that any of them will be "the" one.
One has no other dogs and does cat rescue. Has one retired owner but
no other dog to get exercise with. Next home has sons - 8 & 11, but
no other dog and they were used to an old and calm golden. Third home
has a 2 yo lab, but nobody home during day and not clear on some
lifestyle details yet. They haven't applied yet either.
I realize that a big responsibility of rescue is to make sure (as sure
as possible) that the home is a forever one. Rudy has been through 2
homes already and I don't want him to fail in another one, just
because someone can't meet his exercise (mind and body) needs.
Obviously *I* am the right home for this puppy ;-D, bit that isn't to
be, so I need to find the right home elsewhere. I'm in no hurry to
get rid of him (neither is DH, he just doesn't want him to be
permanent), so that's not an issue, but I always stress over whether
I'm too demanding in new home qualities, or whether I am just
reasonable and careful.

I think it's mostly instinctive, but an extension of knowing that I
don't
tolerate nasty behavior as well. They can nudge her off, avoid her,
stand up (thus knocking her off MOST of the time - she's amazingly
persistent!).
Leaving the area is probably reinforced by me ushering them outside
quickly, during some of her "attack modes". That's mostly for their own
safety, but also so it stops Carey from racing after them as they
escape
to other rooms/sides of a room.
This happened Sunday evening - had the back door open and Franklin
stood up with a startled WOOF at something outside (it was dark).
Carey
immediately "flipped". She went after him but then Lucy. Lucy gets
much
more upset about it - puts her ears back, looks worried, tries to get
away.
Franklin tends to meet it head on by slurping her. It was escalating,
so
I sent both dogs out and then plopped Carey in her carrier for about 10
minutes.
This has been a particularly bad week for her.
I think the dogs know that she's off her rocker.

She is a VERY odd little cat (all 7# of her). She goes into these
moods that are almost seizure-like (she saw a neurologist for awhile,
but we weren't getting anywhere except poorer). My other cat (twice
her size) can be the object of her hostility, as can the dogs, and
then other times, she's obsessively mauling them with affection. She
has transferred that behavior from dog, to dog, to dog. When she was
5 months old she got blocked from ingesting Golden Retriever hair.
After that, she stopped for almost 5 years. The night my Lindy was
killed, she started immediately again (on same Golden). That was
1998. She hasn't stopped since. She also has horrible vocalizations,
inappropriate urination, and well, she's a damn lucky cat, let's put
it that way. She was paralyzed for a few weeks, 3.5 years ago - we
still don't know why. Currently, she can't jump very high after
rupturing her ACL during the summer. She's 12.
During her good times, she's sweet, playful, affectionate
(appropriately), snuggles with the other cat or a dog (without
sucking), and almost seems normal.
She was born 3 days after the rest of her litter - obviously something
went wrong! I'm amazed she's still with us. She's hardy if nothing
else.

It's one of those situations where, do you face this yourself and have
the guts to PTS at your own vet, with you there, or surrender to a
shelter and plead ignorance about what's going to happen
I live with Carey day by day. Some days, I'm ready to toss her little
scrawny 7# declawed butt out the door. But that wouldn't be fair to
her and not a solution. I haven't yet confined her to a cage. That
would not be retraining, with her multiple issues, but a place to
guarantee she wouldn't be peeing all over the house or attacking the
dogs.
I choose to accommodate her weirdness. I cover my family room
furniture with plastic tablecloths every night. She hasn't peed on
those in months, but why take the risk? I have washable slipcovers
and baby waterproof pads under the cushion covers, but laundry gets
tiring after awhile. Citrus spray has worked in the past and present,
and not sometimes in between. She has peed on books, papers, shoes,
empty bowls, the top of the dryer, pretty much anything imaginable.
And then we go for weeks on end when she doesn't. Dog beds get
waterproof liners now. Leather living room furniture get scat mats.
There are places she never pees, and places she loves to pee. On top
of wires is one. Cleaning those off is a real treat.
She's 12 though. Not 7 months. I know that due to her many problems,
she probably won't live to be in her late teens. I didn't expect her
to make it to 9 though, given some problems, so she's turning out to
be the little bionic cat!
I have to admit, that although I love my cats, I won't miss this stuff
when they're gone. Dogs are SO much easier. So much more
straightforward in their problems, if they have any.
But I do love Skip on my lap every evening and on my legs every night.

"The IMBECILITY of some of the claims for operant

new words with alacrity. HOWEver, when REWARDS were

Distraction can be a BIG mistake! Why? Because if your manipulation
of the chew toy is reinforcing then you are inadvertently reinforcing
your dog for biting if you follow his biting with activating the
chew toy.
The standard way to curtail biting is to either "yelp loudly," "clamp
the
dog's mouth shut with your hand," or "pick him up by the scruff of his
neck"
and say "no" whenever he bites. All of these are punishment procedures
and
to work they must be put into place promptly, within say .5 sec, after
the
bite. Isolating the dog after a bite is another form of punishment
called
time-out (from reinforcement but it is hard to rapidly
implement--within .5
sec of a bite.
If one of these procedures does not work, that is, your dog behaves as
if it were a game, then you are not using an effective
punisher/procedure.

Well, be patient.
You can, of course, use differential reinforcement of other behavior
to
eliminate biting. If there is a situation in which your dog often
bites.
then create the situation and if your dog goes without biting for 1
sec.
offer a reinforcer (click and treat if you use a clicker). Then
gradually
increase the time that your dog must go without biting for the
reinforcer
to be delivered. Eventually, your dog will not bite and the other
behaviors
that you have been reinforcing will be more frequent.
Another factor to consider is whether your dog is getting sufficient
exercise. Mine will go "bonkers" if he has been exercise deprived.

I use sound to distract the dog and praise it immediately.
The reason for the immediate praise is that as soon as the
dog is distracted it's no longer thinking of the inappropriate
behaviour so the praise reinforces the "not doing" the unwanted
behaviour.
I use various sound sources, a soda can with stones in it,
car keys, click my fingers, etc. Varying the direction of
the sound each time is important too, otherwise the dog
may begin to anticipate the sound and it will lose it's
effect, if the noise direction is random the dog won't
get too familiar with it and it will remain an effective
distraction.
Remember too that we aren't trying to scare the bejesus
outta the dog, simply breaking it's train of thought while
it's thinking of the unwanted behaviour.
Sometimes you won't even see a reaction but the dog will
have been distracted fleetingly. (Recently one of my dogs
started habitually licking my feet while I was watching
TV, I clicked my fingers on her left side and told her
"good girl" even though she only paused her licking
briefly, next I clicked over her right side and praised,
by about the 4th repeat she suddenly stopped, I repeated
this over a few nights and now she doesn't lick any more,
on the few occasions she absent mindedly licks now all I
do is click and praise and she immediately stops).
Timing is important too, learn to anticipate when the dog
is thinking about doing the "dirty deed" and distract and
praise then, with any luck the dog will try again almost
immediately so distract and praise again, if the timing
is correct after about the 4th rep the dog will stop.
I could go on but this post is long enough already, remember
too that the dog isn't being a "bad dog", it's behaviour is
simply inappropriate for the circumstances.
Happy training, :-)

Paul B <pand...@zfree.co.nz> wrote in message
Hello James,
I have used his recommended techniques and ideas with great
success, and over the period I've used these methods the more
I've become to understand and appreciate how his methods work
and how effective they can be if carried out correctly.
His manual isn't conventional and as such gets critisized and
misunderstood. The basic concept is to allow the dog to choose
whatever behaviour it wants for any situation but to distract
(and immediately praise ) it from behaviours we deem undesirable,
because of the correctly timed distractions repeated usually
about 4 times (in each location) the dog decides of it own
accord that this behaviour is undesriable and therefore pursues
something else, if that behaviour is also inappropriate to us
then we carry on distracting, very soon the dog finds a behaviour
that is mutually acceptable. The benefits of this type of
approach are numerous, firstly we aren't challenging the dog so
there is no conflict so the dog does't develop any possible
negativity to us, the dog decides of it own free will that a
behaviour is unsatisfying so chooses to cease it (in other words
even if we are gone the dog won't have any desire to pursue that
behaviour i.e. bin raiding etc).
I would recommend his manual.
Paul

"Paul B" <pand...@zfree.co.nz> wrote in message
Bollocks, the manual has no dangerous suggestions at
all, people who find the manual useful are those that
don't need to control a dog to satisfy their own ego
but simply want a well behaved dog that is easy to
live with. I would suggest the people who follow the
advice in his manual are people who have already
tried other inefficient methods and are fed up with
the poor results.
The more I think about the methods he suggests the
more sense it makes, the biggest problem is people
believe they have to be in control of the dog, tell it
whats right and wrong, dogs don't understand
our values and I don't believe they are capable of
understanding them either, so to train them we use
methods they understand. That means abstract
training, doing sometimes what appears to
almost be the opposite of what makes sense to us.
If you are purely result orientated then you will not
find Jerry's manual much use, if you love your dogs
and love to work WITH them then his manual is
your dream come true. Distraction and praise works
with any dog, when you sit back and really think about
it, it's very obvious why.
When a dog is properly distracted (and praised) of a
particular behaviour then that behaviour very quickly
becomes unfulfilling so the dog will no longer have any
interest in pursuing it, whether we are about or not,
thats the key to stopping garbage can raids and food
stealing etc etc, no force, no bad dog, just distracting it
in an appropriate manner that it no longer wishes to
pursue that behaviour.
Better than hiding the garbage can eh?

When the dog is digging out to beat the stick
and seems totally reliable without any ear pinch,
you are finished
If the dog drops it, chuck it solidly under the chin,
say "No! Hold!"
(stay on the ear until it does) (perhaps because
the ear is getting tender, or the dog has decided
it isn't worth it)" lying frosty dahl.

Aside from being incredibly offensive and self-
righteous, this post shows and absence of knowledge
in the differences in dogs' temperaments, or perhaps
a lack of ability to perceive same.
The fact that you, Alison, have never met a dog to
whom corrections and discomfort, even pain, were
unimportant does not mean that such dogs do not exist.
What it means is that you don't know as much about
dogs as you think you do, and you surely don't know
a damn thing about Harlan or anyone else's dog here.
I had a Dalmatian that would instigate fights with
one of her housemates; that dog had no fear or
anything, and pain incurred during a fight meant
nothing to her.
I know that that dog is not unique, and I'm sure many
people here can tell similar stories. The fact that
you, Alison, continue to say things to people such as
what you said to Theresa about causing her dog to
suffer (at least I guess that's what you meant by
"you cause your dog suffers" - - must be the King's
English you guys talk about over there) means that
you are an ignorant, arrogant, insensitive person
who is not worth further notice.

Nope. No more than you'd convince Patch that
prongs and e-collars, in the right hands, are not
intrinsically abusive; or that dogs trained properly
with prongs or e-collars are not fearful, in pain, or
intimidated; or that any one of us here knows our
own dogs and their reactions better than someone
who has never seen them or us...hmmm.
I'm starting to see some similarities here.

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
closed for a few seconds.) whereas "Bad Dog" came
before stronger punishement (the kind discussed above).

P.S. Contacting Dr. P:
Please note that due to the large number of
requests I receive, I can no longer give free,
personal advice on problems related to dog
training and behavior.
In order for me to give such advice we would
have to "talk" about the problem at length.
That is, I would need detailed information about
the dog, it's environment and routine, the problem,
and the situation in which the problem occurs.
Thus, this type of consultation takes time which
I cannot afford to give away for free.
If you wish such advice, please see the information
I have provided about my K9 Behavioral Consulting
practice. Another alternative to obtaining personal
advice is to participate in e-mail, chat room, &
newsgroup discussions.

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.

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

I assume that I and my wife are those two naive childs

This naive child would like to say thank you to both
Jerry and Marilyn for putting up with a constant barrage
of really infantile crap at the hands of supposedly
adult dog lovers.
The other naive child (LSW) has to put up with the
nagging idea that if people like them had been posting
earlier, maybe we would not have had to hold the head
of a really magnificent animal in our arms while he was
given the needle and having to hug him and wait until he
gasped his last gasp.
To my mind, "naive" is believing you can terrorize a dog.
Naive is believing that people that hide behind fake
names are more honest than people that use their real
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
level insults for what they are. Really stupid is believing
that people like Jerry Howe and Marilyn Rammell are
going to just go away because you people act like fools.
Why do you act like fools? I really have no idea, and I
don't really care.
