			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dog’s obedience in the initial laying schooling </p>
<p>The laying is a trick, which causes greatest difficulties for many novice trainers. Often one can observe now, when the dog is rather good in the basic skills such as moving side by side, landing, staying. Self-control progresses here, all is ok with Oporto, but the dog keeps on refusing lie. Many books describe how to accustom the dog to the lying. They are based on the use of food motivation (food method of dog training), the mechanical action (mechanical method) or a combination of mechanics and food stimuli (contrast method). But the use of food motivation is not effective for every dog and does not provide reliability. When there are the slightest attempts of application of mechanical stimuli, the thing happens that animal encounters it with unexpected resistance. Dog can not be pressed hard on the withers in such case, it turns over on its back or tries to escape and jump aside. Often animal growls, resorts to the teeth, and even the five-month puppies can make this! </p>
<p>What is the reason for this behavior? Why the same lying by mechanical method does not cause much difficulty, although it applies no less harsh impact? </p>
<p>The fact that the description of laying technique, which can be found in the literature, is given without regard to hierarchical and gregarious behavior. </p>
<p>What is laying in the social behavior of the animal? Lying is a behavior that demonstrates a complete subordination to a higher rank. If the animal loses while the conflict inside of a troop, it always falls and does it often on the back. Sudden menacing cry of owner often makes a controlled dog lie down, and it is not necessary to conduct training here. Another thing is that at this moment the dog is lying in a wrong way, not fulfilling the respective norm, but that is another question. The leader or just someone who stands higher in the hierarchy of the troop always tries to be higher, forcing the opponent to pull over to the ground. Recall that during a walk the strongest and most &#8220;brazen&#8221; animals lay its head on the backs of other dogs and bitten them for their withers, or simply rudely knock to the ground and press others to the ground. </p>
<p>Laying skill under the command is a peculiar indicator, demonstrating the subordination of your pet. </p>
<p>While they are growing and maturing, it often happens that the dogs try to “check you for lice” when your pet is trying to verify the strength of relationships and where possible to correct them, naturally, at its own discretion. This is especially true for males, whose nature makes them take steps to obtain the status of the leader from time to time. The first thing that a dog begins in such a case &#8211; it ceases to lie down. If you can to fit your pet&#8217;s only with voice in any situation, this is one of the clearest indications that you are perfectly controlling the dog (I mean, of course, if speak about a trained animal).</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Puppies’ educational training courses are very popular. Steady increase in interest rate shows the understanding of the need to work with the dog by the owners. But many owners have question arisen: what to do after the last lesson of the course is worked out? After all to conduct &#8220;adult&#8221; dog training is too early but not to train a puppy at all means to erase the results of all the work. The answer is straightforward: to train the puppy. </p>
<p>What was the purpose of educational training? You had to develop initial skills of obedience and teach the puppy to exercise regularly, to the physical and psychological stress. It was not a question of clear controllability making &#8211; to achieve trouble-free performance skills in this age is impossible. You can see its examples every day: </p>
<p>- Your pet has started to sit on a command confidently, but if a familiar (or unfamiliar) dog had appeared in its field of view, it &#8220;forgets&#8221; everything it had been taught; </p>
<p>- A puppy can step up to you after your beckoning and beautifully seat in front of you, but if he is &#8220;busy&#8221; looking for favorite toys, he does not simply hear your command; </p>
<p>- Dog is walking beside and you virtually do not use leash jerks, but if a noisy car has driven near, your pet just may try to run away without paying any attention to you then.</p>
<p>In all these cases we are talking about work in terms of distracting stimuli. And the reason for the dog’s strong diversion is not only in the lack of training success, but also because its nervous system is just not ready for a normal response to such stimuli so far. </p>
<p>Your puppy is happy when works, perform all your commands and is glad because of the promotion. But after 15 minutes passed (the time may vary), it suddenly loses interest in the work of every kind, not only ceases to respond to commands, but also on food reinforcement. This means that puppy has just tired (not physically, it is a stress on the nervous system). Endurance and the ability to work during long time and reliably also depend on the age and the degree of experience. </p>
<p>Therefore, all the disadvantages described above are not because of your failure. The precariousness of the work of a puppy is a normal phenomenon, because of which do not make a tragedy. In order to resolve these shortcomings and to teach the dog to work well and smoothly, you need such two things as time and training. </p>
<p>Over time, everything becomes more or less clear. Independently on how you would study with your pet, you should not count on the reliability of the work until the age of one. In practice of the dog training service the case often occurs when for one reason or another some begin to train a dog at an early age. For example, you can observe how the animal in the age of 5 or 6 months can be included in group. Yes, this puppy can have a wonderful innate ability, an excellent nervous system, and learning abilities. But it would be foolish to bring the final examination of such a dog to the general requirements. In practice, the inspection usually goes to some compromises, trying to see not what a dog is busy with now, but what can make the trainer with the dog in 2-3 months. And it is regardless of the fact whether investigative or special service is in question.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A young dog just can not be reliably controllable under all circumstances. It is necessary to know and consider this. </p>
<p>One of the main conditions for making persistent skills is training. <br />
Training should be conducted aiming to: </p>
<p>Make the dog work in conditions of strong distracting stimuli. </p>
<p>Bring developed reflexes to persistent skills. </p>
<p>Develop dynamic stereotypes as the reaction onto a command and environment. </p>
<p>The last point should be explained in greater detail. Imagine that during the walk you usually go to the store (for example, to buy bread). It is clear that in order to avoid conflicts your dog should be left at the door. What are you doing? You give the command &#8220;sit&#8221;, after setting a little dog aside to the side (so as not to interfere with passers-by, and that they did not interfere with the dog). For reliability, you may throw the loop of short leash on the fence or on some pin sticking out of the ground etc. Even if the dog falls through, it will be kept with the leash. It would be preferably for you to monitor the dog’s behavior through the shop’s window in order to have possibility to correct it in time. You look at the animal carefully, leaving for the store, and the puppy understands that you are serious here. </p>
<p>Firstly, the whole this process is quite complicated. But how will this event look like in 2-3 months? You will approach to the store, to the same place; will give the command &#8220;sit&#8221; then, throw the leash and boldly go into the room, not looking back. The dog will be angry and sit down and wait for you. Two months later, everything will look different. You will approach to the same place (the dog will be without a leash), you will not give any instruction and will not stop. A dog will sit without giving of any command, and, lazily glancing from side to side, will wait for you. </p>
<p>What happened? A dynamic stereotype has developed as a reaction on the command and the situation first, and just on the situation then. Repeating this technique every day, you have achieved reliable action of the animal under a particular circumstance. Such repetition is a real training (though, it seems that you just go to buy bread). </p>
<p>To repeat the conditions of these course exercises is not enough. You must go forward. Gradually complicate the work of the animal, increase the demands. If you have developed an action in the near park, go to the city streets. If you have coached a command of approach with the dog when it was calm and looked at you, move on to simulate beckoning of the animal in terms of distracting stimuli. </p>
<p>Discipline of your dog primarily depends on your own discipline. It is easy to get the animal to sit down before going over the carriageway. But it is hard to do this every time, independently on the fact that you hurry or not. </p>
<p>However, set the key rules of behavior in any given situation and always ask for their implementation. Having loosened the requirements once (allowing the dog go on the sofa, ignoring the failure of the team) you will quell the weeks of work.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In order to understand the behavior of your dog better, you must correctly identify what it is motivated by. One of the most confusing moments is the aggression. The dog may growl at the cat while walking, bark at the casual passer-by, bark at the &#8220;Brothers in Mind&#8221; at the meeting. Some dogs may respond by grin, growl or bite at the owner&#8217;s attempting to take away a toy, food or even making dog go away from the sofa. In each of these cases we can see the aggressive behavior. How to control this aggression, should we promote or suppress it achieving the reaction that is desirable for you?<br />
Aggression is associated with the greatest number of legends and &#8220;folk&#8221; methods, often leading to unpredictable results. English cocker, I helped to correct the dominant aggression of, risked losing its life because of such legends. A young veterinarian, having seen as the ten-puppy growls at the hosts during feeding, said that the dog had &#8220;an aggression gene&#8221; and it should be put to sleep. Otherwise, the doctor described the prospect of the whole family to be slaughtered at night&#8230; No more, no less. Dog was lucky – before the lulling, owners decided to consult a trainer. <br />
To control aggression, it is necessary to know what it is called with, and what the purpose of your dog’s behavior is. Despite the similarity of its external manifestations, the aggression can be different. We can distinguish the types of it as follows. <br />
Dominant aggression <br />
This social behavior is related to hierarchical relationships in the troop. You have to understand that a dog, living in a human family, takes the laws of troop’s relationships for people. Therefore, the owner and relatives so as children may become the object of domination. Often happens, that the owner controls the dog, but the dominant aggression can manifest itself in relation to the often coming relatives. The dog knows these people and considers them as &#8220;its own&#8221;, but demonstrates its superiority, putting them in place. <br />
Territorial aggression <br />
This type of aggression is also connected with social behavior. But, unlike the previous type, this behavior is directed to members of other, competing troops. The growling and barking at a knock at the door, barking of passersby who walk near the frontage &#8211; all this is the territorial aggression. The same dog can be aggressive toward your friend at your home, and does not react to his appearance on the street. The key point of this type of aggression that it is manifested in its territory. <br />
Defensive aggression <br />
If the dog or members of its troop are in danger, the dog could show the protective aggression. Your pet may bark on furiously stranger while walking, if he behaves &#8220;suspiciously&#8221;: stops, looks at you, trying to get closer. All of these actions the dog sees as a direct threat, and can react to them aggressively. It should be noted that over the millennia of co-existence with the man specific reactions developed in the dogs that are not characteristic for wild animals. Thus, most dogs, even puppies aged react aggressively to a stranger carrying a bag in his hands or chest. This reaction is innate, dogs with such reactions are artificially chosen as the most &#8220;smart&#8221; ones.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Barking is the natural way for dogs to express their emotions. With rare exception, dogs successfully open their mouth when they wish to please neighbours and guests, to welcome the &#8220;brothers on reason&#8221; and simply &#8220;for the good of their soul.&#8221; But in practice it is often necessary to open their mouth when it is necessary for trainer. Barking is not only a part of the training sport system, but it is used in applied work. For example, search and rescue dogs must denote the human finding with voice. Many special dogs have to bark at a laying. Besides that, the usual owners of dogs do not mind if their pet barks, when someone touches the door or gate in an apartment or in a private house. </p>
<p>To develop barking and make it aggressive, assertive and dependable is usually not a problem for the trainer. The greatest difficulty is precisely to develop the original conditioned reflex. </p>
<p>There are several methods how to develop the skill. Each of them is based on the use of certain reactions of behaviour. </p>
<p>1. Voice developing with the food motivation using </p>
<p>It is used when working with dogs with the prevailing food response behaviour. It should be noted that the food reaction quite flexibly varies depending on the condition of the dog. Thus, if the animal does not feed during last 12-24 hours, the food reaction will be strong even in dogs, calmly acting toward delicacies. Therefore, if other methods fail, try to work with a hungry dog, using a treat. </p>
<p>The technology of the skill’s development is simple. The main thing is to ensure inaccessibility of delicacies. The best way is to tie the leash to a tree, to work with a treat near the dog’s nose. The animal should not be free to run around you, as a dog in this case will try to get a treat. If your pet is tied, his nervous system will be overexcited and it may start barking. </p>
<p>2. Using of the Oporto subject </p>
<p>The method is applicable only for dogs with a high interest in Oportation. It is not necessary to tie the dog. Let your pet move freely, play with him, call the desire to grasp the object. You can work with the ball, with skill, with any object, which is the most interesting for dog. At the time when the dog is excited most, lift the object over the head and try to call the voice response. Do not wait, &#8220;revive&#8221; the object. </p>
<p>3. Using of active-defensive behaviour reaction </p>
<p>Some dogs bark well while protecting its territory. You can use this reaction. You will need an assistant for the exercises. Let your assistant appear in the territory the dog considers as its own one at the desired time. If necessary, let the assistant knock on the gate, make noise. Just reward the dog when it barks. </p>
<p>4. Mimetic method </p>
<p>You can also try to use mimetic method. As the main motivation the delicacy, Oporto object or assistant help, depending on the development of dog’s appropriate reaction of the behaviour. Once a well-trained dog barks, your pet will also institute and give the voice. You must encourage it at the same time.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Nothing pleases trainer more then dog that is active, interested in Oporto and being in the mood for fighting the man. Interested persecution of a &#8220;prey&#8221;, absence of fear to struggle and the desire to work &#8211; all these qualities make it possible to introduce more complications easily and to lead a dog on all steps of protective training planned. But the learning process is never smooth. One of the problems that are often faced by the trainer is reluctance to slacken a bite (of a sleeve) under the &#8220;Give&#8221; command when needed. </p>
<p>It is known that not slackening under a command, for example, in the IPO, causes the same ruthless dismissing from a test as when there is no bite at all. But taking into consideration that the lack of bite may be caused by various causes, including congenital defects of a nervous system, not slackening under a command is a consequence of methodological and technical mistakes in dog training, which can and should be avoided. </p>
<p>Why a dog does not slacken the bite? This occurs because the protective training is conducted with a minimum inhibitory stimuli, the stimulation of the nervous system is maintained at a very high level. Figurant (or a trainer &#8211; dog owner, when the exercises are processed without assistance) encourages a bite, tightens the object to him and re-releases it then, making the dog compress the prey more and more harder. As a result, some dogs become overexcited, and the bite could become almost mortal. In this case, it may be quite problematic to get the dog to switch and throw the prey, and many inexperienced trainers are not able to manage with such a task. </p>
<p>Typically, in such cases, the dog throws a prey after a lengthy of &#8220;persuasion&#8221;, soothing strokes, and it happens after the natural decay of excitation. Teaching a dog to throw a prey &#8220;in a nice”, soothing and “persuading” it, you can not reach the main objective: to instantly switch from a state of excitation in the state of inhibition. In other words, the sleeve is not only thrown after the person involved has made a minimum resistance to the dog’s movement, but it will not be thrown quickly immediately after the command &#8220;Give!&#8221; </p>
<p>You can get a quick throwing of a sleeve only if the force of the stimulus impact that compel to do it is higher than the force of &#8220;prey&#8221; excitation. What specifically stimuli should be applied, depends on the individual characteristics of dogs. Following step is suitable for most of dogs. </p>
<p>1. Put the dog with a grip in the teeth left to your leg (due to excitation of the nervous system, the animal can be unruly with a voice, so make your pet sit with use of mechanical stimuli). This will make excitement a little bit less.</p>
<p> 2. Take the grip with one hand, and on top of the jaw with another, tightly clutching the dog&#8217;s lips with your fingers. </p>
<p>3. Say &#8220;Give!&#8221; It is important that the command is sounded loudly and clearly. </p>
<p>4. After 1-2 seconds after the command have passed (note – not at once, but after a short pause) &#8220;open&#8221; the dog’s jaw with a sharp movement. Do it in one motion. You may have to cause pain in your pet. The main thing that the association is evolved in the dog: after 1-2 seconds after the command &#8220;Give&#8221; sharp unpleasant effects is used. </p>
<p>If it is done correctly, even in the most severe cases a dog starts throwing a grip after the command within three or four classes.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Before the talk about the shot fear correcting, you need to understand the causes of this phenomenon. As it is with any behavior, fear of the shot is formed under the influence of two main components: <br />
  innate predisposition; <br />
  experience gained <br />
Under an innate predisposition, first and foremost the lack of effect of the nervous system should be understood. Excitability and mobility of the nervous system have its influence also, as well as the predominance of the orienting behavior reaction. </p>
<p>Gained experience is usually connected with fear of sudden and violent claps. Sometimes, the puppy suddenly falls under the fireworks or the firecracker is just broken beside. If the nervous system is most vulnerable currently (the dog is under a stress), that forms strong phobia.</p>
<p>There is no fear of shot that is caused only by negative experiences. Also there is not only an innate fear of shots. The innate predispositions and the negative impact should coincide. </p>
<p>That is to say, if your dog is afraid of shots, this means that it has a congenital disposition to this fear, and there was some case that served as the formation of such behavior. </p>
<p>Can I fix a fear of shots? With an innate component of this behavior to do anything is impossible. However, to change the negative consequences of the experience gained by the animal is within our reach. Depending on the strength of phobias, it may require different time and different efforts. It is impossible to remove the fear of strong sound stimuli completely, but it is absolutely real to weaken this fear. Simply put, if the dog panics when there are explosions of firecrackers at a distance of one hundred meters, animal would only be afraid of firecrackers, exploded a few meters away from it after the correction of the behavior. But for the majority of urban dog owners it will be happiness. </p>
<p>The method of shots fear correction is based on a very simple principle: in the different of its states, the nervous system responds differently to strong stimuli. </p>
<p>There is a condition when the dog is sensitive most. Remember how excited the dog is and how sensitively it reacts to the situation in the first few minutes of walk. But there are states in which the nervous system is not so much reacting to stimuli. These states are as follows: <br />
  physical fatigue; <br />
  game excitement (game with Oporto object); <br />
 work during the development of obedience skills <br />
 In addition, there is a force of sound, which the dog is not afraid of. If a firecracker explodes in ten meters, then the dog panics, in a hundred – it nervous, but from a distance of five hundred meters, the animal may simply not react. If hundred meters are not enough, you can withdraw per kilometer. </p>
<p>Schooling to explosions should be hold, having organized small classes. You need assistant, who will depart at a specified distance and explode firecrackers. It is important that he do it on your signal (for instance, when the hand is raised), and do not make explosions on its own.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Every year we humans like to send each other presents and greeting cards to mark  Easter, Christmas and Birthdays amongst other occasions.  As we also think of dogs as part of the family it is only right that they join in the fun, for that reason  an array of dog gifts have been made especially for them. You can now purchase greeting cards that you can send from your dog and also edible cards that you can send to dogs, in addition to a whole host of other dog gifts.</p>
<p>You will be pleased to hear that dogs aren&#8217;t interested in the latest electronic gadgets or laptop computers so you won&#8217;t have to to break the bank when buying a dog gift. Dogs have no concept of designer labels or value, and are just as pleased with a toy costing a couple of pounds, as an high-priced gift. While dogs aren&#8217;t bothered about style or designer labels they are however interested in food and fun, there is no happier sight than a dog playing with a new toy.</p>
<p>When it comes to choosing dog gifts you have lots of products to select from, ranging from edible greeting cards to toys or even clothing. If you are thinking of buying  a gift for your own dog or a  friends dog, I will list some items you might like to consider below: </p>
<p>Edible Greeting Cards – Normally being made of natural rawhide they are a safe treat for dogs to eat. As well as the rawhide card itself you also get a paper tag that you can write a personal message on along with an envelope so that you can put it in the post if needed.</p>
<p>Dog Toys – There is a massive variety of toys on the market for dogs nowadays, so you will be able to find one for any breed of  dog. If the dog you are buying for is non destructive then plush toys or vinyl squeaky toys are a good choice of <a href='http://www.happydogproducts.co.uk/store/category/dog-gifts/' target='_blank'>dog gifts</a>. If however the dog is an avid chewer then something like rubber Kong toys or a Nylabone chew toy would most likely be a better alternative.</p>
<p>Dog Treats – At one point the variety of dog treats was limited to natural products such as pigs ears or a variety of dog biscuits. Nowadays however there is a far better choice that includes such things as dog chocolate and even specially made dog cakes such as birthday cakes.</p>
<p>Dog Beds – These make excellent dog gifts and need not cost a lot of money. Basic items of dog bedding such as mattresses start at around £10 and are excellent for taking with you when visiting friends and family, or handy to keep in your house if you have a family member that visits with their dog. Also available are a range of reasonably priced travel dog beds,, or if you are in a generous mood there is a great variety of novelty and <a href='http://www.cosydogbeds.co.uk/home/category/luxury-dog-beds/' target='_blank'>luxury dog beds</a> available.</p>
<p>As I write this Christmas is just a few months away and Christmas gifts are starting to fill the shelves in stores, which also include dog gifts. Festive plush and vinyl dog toys, as well as tasty festive dog treats such as dog Christmas pudding, and even dog garments in the form of Santa or reindeer suits.</p>
<p>No matter what the size of your budget you can always locate a gift for the dog in your life so that he/she can join in the celebrations.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Your dog can benefit from wearing a <a href='http://www.slumberdog.co.uk/dog-coats.html' target='_blank'>Secure Dog Coat</a> as it can provide them with extra warmth and it can also provide your Dog with extra protection from the rain and when you take then for walks through the bush from the scraps and grazes from outlying bushes. If your Dog is an active outdoor dog then buying a protective Dog Coat for them is one of the best decisions you can make.</p>
<p>One thing that you need to remember though is that not all Dog Coats are created equal. Coats differ greatly in terms of quality both in regards to the material they are made from and also in terms of the way they fit your dog.</p>
<p>To start off with you need to ensure that the coat that you purchase is the right size. If the coat is too small your Dog will likely find it uncomfortable and if it’s too tight then the coat may not fit at all. As dogs have a tendency to get themselves into a wide range of situations you also don’t want a coat that has any loose ends as your dog could get tangled up. To get the exact measurements for the coat, measure the distance from the base of the dogs neck to the base of the tail. If in doubt always go a size up and ensure that you leave a little bit of room if you expect your dog to grow.</p>
<p>Another point of consideration is too ensure that the Dog Coat is water resistant. A waterproof Dog Coat will keep your dogs fur dry on wet days and also from wet and dew covered bushes and grass.   </p>
<p>High quality dog coats should also have practical features such as openings for harness leashes, quick adjustment closures, and enough room for your pooch to relieve himself without making a mess.</p>
<p>My recommendation for the perfect coat is the <a href='http://slumberdog.co.uk/the-ultimate-2-in-1-four-seasons-performance-dog-coat.html' target='_blank'>2-in-1 All Seasons performance Dog Coat</a>. In the colder months the coat has a removable polar fleece lining for extra winter warmth and the warmers months the coat has a waterproof/breathable outer coat. </p>
<p>The Ultimate 2-in-1 Performance Dog Coat is a unique design, featuring an innovative concept, which produces total adaptability to the weather. For colder months, the polar fleece lining provides the comfort and warmth to protect against the cold. As the weather improves, the fleece lining can be removed, leaving a lightweight, waterproof and breathable jacket to combat the vagaries of the British weather.</p>
<p>The Four Seasons 2-in-1 also features full chest protection, light reflective beading and light reflective central fastening straps for extra safety at night, as well as easy Velcro fastening.</p>
<p>So if you are looking for a dog coat for your dog make sure that you measure your dog before you shop and get a well-fitting dog coat that’ll keep your dog safe and warm! </p>
