Some people just clip them short all over, but I think they look fancier with a continental cut( like the ones in dog shows) I was wondering what percentage of people like which cut better. Poodle lovers only please.

My 5yr old pomeranian barks at everyone except people in our immediate family. How do I get him to stop barking at my friends and anyone else that comes to my house. I dont want to put a barking collar on him, and I highly doubt the Dog Whisperer will come to this small town to help me?

What are the basic commands used in training a puppy or controlling a dog? I’m looking for whoever can come up with the most, best commands. 10 points, people, 10 points.

I remember a time when the “rolled up newspaper” method of dog training was the accepted norm. Back then, many trainers taught their dogs to do amazing things (and do them quite well) using methods that most folks today would consider “cruel”. I’m not advocating any particular school of training here, but I was wondering: What happened that most people changed their training habits? How did positive reinforcement start, and do you think it will continue to be the preferred method of dog training?
Does anybody here really believe that folks who trained their dogs using harsh methods actually loved their dogs any less?
Is it really so bad to learn out of fear? Once again, I’m not advocating a particular training method, but if it works is it such a bad thing?
St. Lady raises a good point … I too learned many things out of fear of my parents’ reactions to things I did when I was younger. I learned right from wrong because I knew that wrong behaviors had negative consequences. I think I turned out OK. Couldn’t a dog?
Anybody who wants to read a good article about how Ian Dinbar started positive reinforcement and how he compares to Caesar Milan’s methods should definately click DogJudge’s link.

sunluvr_1976 asked:


I have a 7 month Shepherd/lab mix who I found wandering the streets. She has been “diagnosed” (by the vet)with fear aggression and it was suggested (by the Petsmart people) that I get her into some puppy classes. I am just leary of what kind of actual training these people have had working with dogs that have behavior issues? Does anyone have any positive or negative experiences with the Petsmart training classes?
Thank you
She is fine with other dogs and people once she gets to know them. It just seems that everytime I watch those Petsmart classes the trainers look so young?
