All About Dog Behavior



It's been almost a year since I wrote a post here at Blogger. Sorry about that. I've been busy writing a lot of articles ( over I think 270 dog behavior related posts) on TheSpiritDog over at wordpress.

Funny thing is, I love all things Google. I should really re-familiarize myself with blogger. But until I do, you can learn a ton of stuff about "Real" dog behavior at the above link.

Thanks have a great day.

How to find a lost dog

The best ways for you to find your lost dog are:
  1. Visit your animal shelter every week. Do not just call them, when you call you will be speaking to an office worker. They don't always know what type of dogs are in the shelter.
  2. Put flyer's up everywhere.
  3. Bring a stack of flyer's to your local police station.
  4. Put an add in your local newspapers classified section. These adds are usually free.
You have to be very proactive, if you want to find your lost dog. Don't just wait around hoping to get a call, that somebody found your dog.

I will be updating this post on a more regular basis. In the meantime, if you want much more information on this subject, visit thespiritdog.wordpress.com.

Thank You

Huxley ; One Month Later

Huxley, we now call him Huck-a-bee. Has turned into what every other new family member turns into in a very short time. A pain in the butt. You see, when a dog gets really happy they become very excited, all the time. This is the best part of our job. When one of our new guys leaves all the baggage that they come with, at the door. Now he is at a place, where he can finally be what he always wanted to be, A DOG.

Talking to your Dog "Tip#3"

Today I want to teach you the Best and ONLY way, you should ever talk to your little guy, if you truly want to communicate with him. Are you ready? This is so simple your going to wonder, "How come I didn't think of that". Here it is, are you sitting down, are you becoming breathless with anticipation, Huh?
Talk to him, just like you would talk to a baby. That's right , a Baby. Because they are just like little babies, your dog understands you by reading your body language. But more importantly the way you say things, and the way you act.
You have the ability to make them happy, sad, calm, or excited just by the way we act with them. When we try to communicate with a baby, we usually get very excited,and in turn, the baby starts laughing and becoming happier if she was sad or crying. This is the exact same way we must talk to dogs if we want to have any success at all in being able to communicate at all with them.
So try it today, try talking to your dog by letting your emotions come through your words.

Dog Training "Tip number two"

Don't get angry!
Don't get angry when Fido chews up the brand new

pet bed you bought him. Every new thing you buy ,
is , in his eyes a new toy. So don't get mad when he

chews his stuff up.
After all it is his stuff , not yours.
So, if he doesn't mind, you shouldn't mind.
