Dog Obedience Training Ideas

Posts Tagged ‘several times’

I am fostering a sick un-neutered male dog until he gets better. I already have a female dog and a male dog (Both fixed). The foster dog gets along great with the female and he has not been showing agression towards the male. My male dog however has tried to attack him several times and I have to keep them seperated which is causing stress on them as well as me. I know that male dogs don’t always get along but if anyone has any tips from similar situations I would really appreciate it.

Our 6-year-old lab mix is becoming intolerant of our 10-month-old daughter now that she is crawling after the dog. The dog has growled at her several times and snapped at her twice. The dog has never bitten anyone hard enough to draw blood. These incidents seem to happen when the dog feels "cornered" by the baby. The baby just wants to touch the dog. How can we stop the aggressive dog behavior?

So…. I was out almost all day Sunday with friends & when I came home there was a new addition to my family! My husband had been talking about this for a few months, but I didn’t realize how serious he was until I saw the cute little puppy napping in the carrier on the kitchen floor!
Surprise!!!!
I didn’t know what to think, but I fell instantly in love!
Now I told him before, when he was talking about getting a dog, that it would be his & my son’s responsibility… & he agreed "Oh, yes.. you won’t have to worry about it!" But guess who is home most of the day…. that’s right—Me! I know nothing about potty training a dog, etc. & there have already been a few accidents. The place he bought the puppy from did, however, provide us with some handouts & info.
Right now the puppy is confined to the kitchen until he is house-broken. We have paper on the floor, & he has all the essentials. I take him outside about every 2 hours to try to get him to ‘go’.
(to be continued….)
Now I am a little worried about how the four cats in my house are going to handle the adjustment. My one, Kayla, doesn’t seem to be bothered by the puppy, & has been in the kitchen several times, looked at it, & walked away. The others are keeping their distance. I put one of the litter boxes in the other end of the house , just incase the cats get too scared to go to the back room(which is past the kitchen) to use it.
I could use some suggestions…..
Also, we are working on a name. There is a pic & description of the puppy on my 360 page, if anyone cares to check it out & leave some ideas. You may leave a comment on my blog or here.

Thank you !
Thanks for your responses so far!
Please do not send me advertisements for videos &/or books. I’m asking for advice from others who have had the same experience.

Our neighbor’s dogs will not stop barking and since we live in a rural area we can’t just shut the windows and ignore it. Regardless of whether they are home or not, the dogs bark essentially non-stop all day, very early in the morning and sometimes at night. (They are pit bulls so it is a terrible, shrieking sound.) We have spoken to them about it several times and they constantly say that they will "take care of it," but clearly they are either unable or unwilling to do so. We live in a nice, essentially no-crime area and they are making most people in the neighborhood extremely stressed out and several different neighbors have called the police and animal control. Animal control told us that they have been fined, but this doesn’t appear to have done anything.
We are so stressed out at this point that any time we hear a dog anywhere we cringe and we are unable to focus on homework or anything because of the sound and our fear of it starting up again. Like I said, we have already contacted both the police and animal control, what is our next step to have this dealt with? Someone once suggested buying a "no-bark collar," but this is not an option because they are expensive and we are not going to spend our hard-earned money on them when they are the ones who should be taking care of the problem. (Our neighbors clearly will not invest in dog training so they are certainly not going to buy anything either.) We would like to know who we should speak to next, such as a specific person in the police department or perhaps something specific we could request of animal control, who come out to the house very often.
Thanks for the suggestions, but I can’t feed the dog because it is in a fenced in pen. Also, we think that our neighbors know we have called the police and will be very angry if we try to feed their dog anything.

P.S. We are in the U.S., any suggestions about who to call or write here?
