Whether
it's the nuisance of a dog who piddles on the carpet, or the serious
danger of a dog who is aggressive toward humans or other dogs, dog
behavior problems are a major cause of people giving up their dogs.
I have been very happy to discover that positive training methods
can often work wonders. Not always -- there are some dogs with serious
aggression for whom the best choice is probably euthanasia. But
before going that route, a lot of things can be tried...
For books and DVDs on any dog behavior problems you are dealing
with, search Dogwise:
Rosana's Ramblings:
I've had my share of dog behavior problems, and while they have
even driven me to tears a few times, I have also learned a lot
by working to overcome them.
If you are dealing with some difficult
canine behaviors, be sure to get enough help. It may be from the
internet or from books, ebooks, or DVDs that you buy. It may be
from a local trainer though do be sure to ask some specific questions
before meeting with a trainer, as there are some trainers who will
use very painful methods to try to subdue a dog.
Do know that you aren't alone as you try to solve the challenges
in dog behavior problems. |
