I have stayed out of this discussion so far as my experience with prong
collars is only second hand. However when we were in Germany in 1990 we
watched two good Rottie friends (very experienced trainers) trying to
deprogramme a German Shepherd that had been trained on a prong collar. The

Just watched the story of Linman's dog Jackson on
ABC TV morning show. Someone stole his dog 3 1/2 years
ago in Washington DC. Linman had created a web site,

to get the dog back. Police moved in and

who we rescued in the nick of time from the Ohio shelter. Buzz

Water pressure is a problem at our house and getting all of the soap and debris out

OK, now, I don't want to get flamed here, it's not like this is a prong
collar, right? I just give the puppy the finger he/she wants; far enough
down the throat to get a mild gag reflex a couple of times. Half a dozen
times of that seems to associate biting me with no fun, and they stop. Mind

Hi guys,
We just got a new mini-van (dog-mobile!) and need to get a barrier for the
back for our 3yr old Bernerboy. We were looking at several different kinds

Hi:
I am wondering if anyone knows where I could buy marrow bones cheaply in
bulk in the Toronto area. I get them at Loblaws and Sobey's, but they are
not really that much cheaper than meat at those stores. The butchers here in
Bloor West village neither sell them nor give them away.
Please

When both our boys were puppies, we were their favorite chew-toy, so we
employed the OW method every time they bit. It worked wonders. They
were both quick to pull back, then try to bite again, but gentler and
gentler each time until they finally decided we were complete sissies
and quit

I also yip and carry on piteously when they bite someplace else. They seem
to find that strange enough that it helps, too.
In most cases, this only works on young puppies, less than 4 mos. of age.

Dear Andie,
First, I would make SURE that pain was not the issue. If the pup has
something going in his neck/back area, anything that puts strain on the neck
and sometimes causes pain can condition a response to the expectation of
pain. If we are 200% absolutely sure that cannot be the case,
Jorda's mast cell tumor was located, to the best of my recollection, on the

in 1990.
Treatment was, initially, surgical removal. My dogs'
