tlblake84 asked:
I am considering using a training collar to teach my dog boundaries. I need to be able to keep her off leash, but she runs off if I let her off the leash. A fence, even an invisible fence, is out of the question as its not my house. I’ve tried teaching her boundaries for the last 5 months but it is not working well. She won’t respond to “come” unless she’s in the mood. I want to use a shock collar but I worry it may be inhumane. Are they effective and are they safe to use?

Bryan702 asked:
My pug just turned two and I’ve had her ever since she was eight weeks old. She is very sweet and LOVES to give kisses! She is for the most part a very well behaved puggy. But one thing always bothered me…..Everytime I go to pet her, she always lowers her head. Now I’ve never hit her or even been the least bit hostile twords her, so it makes me wonder if it’s something I’m doing or if it’s just a dog thing?

anzforreal asked: Our
golden retriever is 17 weeks old and he runs away when he sees people from our neighbourhood, when we are taking a walk around our vicinity. He runs to the people, and kinda licks them. We are scared he might bite, but again, we can’t stop him because he is way too fast and he struggles when we catch him around the collar. We have a leash, tho he never likes to walk with the leash, occasionally dumping himself onto some grass and refusing to move.

Leslie C asked: I have 3 cats who are fond of scratching. One of them is also a chronic vomitter. By the way – they’re all female and spayed; 2 are mother and daughter. I’m in the market for new furniture and don’t want it to get destroyed by my feline housemates. I intend to buy more scratching posts, but am especially interested in an indoor invisible fence. The products I’ve seen are advertised for dogs – but are they safe for cats as well? Don’t even tell me about the sprays because those don’t work unless I use it on the cats directly (not the recommended use). I’ve also gotten into the habit of cutting their claws weekly, so I’m testing that strategy. Declawing is an absolute last resort.
I’ll amend my original question for those ready to call the ASPCA. I have 3 cats who like to scratch (as cats do). I’ve owned cats all my life, so I’m not new to their behavioral issues. I’m in the market for new furniture and don’t want it destroyed. I intend to buy more scratching posts, but am interested in an indoor invisible fence. The products I’ve seen are advertised for dogs – but are they safe for cats? Yes, I know about water bottles and shouting the word “no”. Yes, I’ve used the SoftClaws, aluminum foil, and sticky tape. Don’t even tell me about repellant sprays b/c those don’t work unless I use it on the cats directly (joking). I’ve also gotten into the habit of cutting their claws weekly, so I’m testing that strategy (yes, I know not to cut the veins). Declawing is an extreme and absolute last resort, regardless what anyone says. Looking for something that I haven’t already tried and will help us all live in peace. Thx for the sensible answers I’ve already recv’d
