For a very good guide to all sorts of dog training processes and dog behavior challenges, I use and recommend Clickertraining ...that link goes to the description of this terrific ebook you download immediately, wherever you are! -- Rosana
Chances are that what I am about to say doesn’t apply to you. Most of us can afford to keep our pets. But a significant number of the people, in the US and around the world, are facing – or will be – such basic challenges that they will have to consider giving up their beloved dogs or cats. Already shelters are reporting increases in the number of animals turned in by owners who haven’t found a way to keep them. If you have friends in such circumstances, or belong to online groups, I encourage you to give them the website address of this page, or even to cut and paste this entire article (keeping my name and website name please), and put it in emails or post it around the web.
If you are thinking about giving up your dog or dogs, or other beloved pets, because of hard times…

What do you do if you have clicker trained your dog but then you are out together somewhere and have forgotten your clicker? I’ve heard this question from people who haven’t started clicker training, as they are thinking through whether they want to give it a try.

One of my very favorite places online to buy dog supplies of all kinds is SitStay, a business selling toys, crates, good quality food.. well, actually everything they sell is good quality. Darcie and Kent run the place, though arguably their dogs do, from the occasional references to the dogs you see at the site.
Anyway, I went there for something yesterday, when I wasn’t glued to the television watching the inauguration, and found that they had had an active response to all the positive energy. Here’s what Darcie says:
Beginning January 20, 2009, Inauguration Day, we’re starting our own “First 100 Days” countdown to celebrate the first 100 days of the new administration. We’ll use any excuse to have some fun and help you save money. We’ll have new items in this category every day that will be 15% off. They’ll only be on special for just that one day. We’ll change them out every day around 10:00 PM Central time. So, spread the word and check back each day!
I like to buy from other small businesses as much as possible, when they offer quality and good prices, as SitStay does.
Take a look… this link takes you right to the page:
