My Dogs Not My Child He deserves Better

For those of you that insist your dogs are your children, I challenge you to treat your kids like your dog for one week and see if you still think your dog deserves the lowly status of "Child".

For those of you who have no human children or whose children have grown dont fret, just borrow a kid of a friend or relative or bring over the grandkids for a week. Theyll love you for this! What? You cant find any kids to hang around for a week. Thats ok, ask your spouse or a friend or, heck, go grab that homeless guy off the street corner and tell him you want to treat him like your dog for a week. Hell think hes won the lottey!

Heck, anyone will jump for a chance when they find out that youre going to:

Let them lay around in your bed all day. Pick at their dinner and snub it so youll feed them whats on your plate. Constantly lavish them with affection. Spend hundreds of $ on them at specialty stores for things they really dont need. Let them in and out of the house everytime they look at the door. Look the other way when they jump on the sofa between you and your special person growling and demanding attention. Laugh and joke while you hump their 80 year Nannas leg.

Well, ok, maybe you dont treat your dog this good. But if you really treated your dog like your "child" your dog would go to school to become a good citizen, greet people politely, eat what is put in front of them, and never be aggressive to anyone.

Dog Training Training Aids

Training Aids

Dog training aids are necessary if you are planning to go on a dog training program. Remember the dog-training aids that are out in the market are actually benefits for dog owners. Dog training aids are there to help you in succeeding in teaching and training your dog. These aids could help the owner in training your dog in obedience, agility and etc.

You will find many types of aids, but only a certain few will work well for you, so choose wisely.

However, I find that the reward method of training aids is the best. Giving small amount of food for a well-completed task will work wonders. This method may not be effective if your dog is not really interested in treats. This method is a really a cheap method of training aids.

For dog agility training aids that are available are e.g. anti bark collars. Many dogs have a problem when they do dog agility. They start barking constantly basically because of the hype involved. Anti bark collars do one of two things or sometimes both, they give a small electric charge when your dog barks and spray some water up into their face. People may think this is cruel but it is completely harmless. It just lets your dog know that barking is not acceptable. These collars are available at pet shops and on the Internet and are not too expensive.

Clicker is another interesting aid. Surprising, this aid is one of the aid many dog owners prefer to use. The dog is taught to associate a clicking sound with a reward, like a treat. The trainer clicks the clicker when the dog does something good, followed immediately by a treat. Eventually, the dog learns to respond to the clicker alone.

The leash or collar training aid is the main form of controlling and communicating with the dog in leash and collar training. This aids is the most popular method of dog training and have been around for a very long time and have proven to be a favored among dog trainers
Whatever aids you choose, you as a owner or trainer is in a better position to determine the best aid that will go well and give good result.
