I have a year old beagle. He alway barks in his crate like crazy when we leave the house. I'm not sure what to do to stop it. He doesn't see his crate as a den...
Hi, If you want to leave your dog crated, you should spend time creating positive associations with the crate... otherwise he'll just see it as punishment....
Well I began all over again today. I put his food and water in the crate. Took him a few tries but he finally went in to eat. He vacuumed rather than chewed...
My dog, Wilson, who has SA also has hurt himself on a crate. He has gotten his mouth stuck on the bars of the door and had to be cut out...twice! It was a...
My dog, Wilson, has separation anxiety and is fearful of strangers, especially males. For this reason, he has formed a much closer bond with me than my...
I use a tape recorder for Wilson while I'm not home so that I can monitor his whining/ howling. The recorder has a timer on it so I can see exactly how many...
I have recently adopted a 2 year old black lab -- who, by the way, is responding very well to crate training (thanks everybody!). However, I am seeing that...
Hi everybody, I was wondering if anybody has tried melatonin on their SA dogs in order to take the edge off ? I was considering it as an option to real...
Re << I have learned that crates are not safe for some dogs!!!>> It is nice to hear someone agree with me on this one. Wylie is doing better now with being by...
Where did you get Wilson? I wonder if he was scared or something by males and that is why he is skitish around them? Wylie is much more affectionate with me,...
If Wilson doesn't bite everybody (or everybody but one person) then we can assume that there is something different about Wilson and that person. I've lost...
Sorry for misreading your post. I would like ask a question. Does he speak Cajun? ... -- Doug Tir na nOg [Tir na nOg is a mythical place of Gaelic legend where...
Sure, the real natives of LA speak Cajun. Some will argue the language is more French than Parisian French since it has changed little since the 18th century....
She/he means West Los Angeles, not Louisiana. :) Holly ... From: chelwy To: k9sepanx@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday, August 10, 2004 10:17 PM Subject:...
HA HA HA HA. Oh Holly thank you for straightening me out. I have tears in my eyes from laughing. <g> But come on they don¹t speak Cajun there? ... -- Doug Tir...
Re: [k9sepanx] Re: WilsonThat gave me a good chuckle too when I read your post. I don't believe Cajun is one of South Central LA's dialects, but I could be...
We have a 6 month old Spinone with SA. We got her when she was 9 weeks old. My husband works out of our home, so we do not need to leave her nor have never...
How have you been working on the desensitization? The key is to go very slowly and not any faster than the dog is comfortable with. Jean Clark and the gang ...
My 4.5 year old has moved on from howling to urinating. I decided it was time to try meds and am starting him on Clomicalm (SP?). At the same time, I am...
From someone who's been there, Just as an aside...we finally resorted to Clomicalm (the generic is clomipramine...not nearly as expensive, but still about...
... I don't think I understand. Is this behavior in response to your leaving or does the urinating happen spontaneously at other times too? There may be a ...
We have been putting on our shoes, picking up the keys, walking in and out of the front door, sometimes locking it and sometimes just closing it for 1 sec up...
Thanks for all of the information. I have ordered "I'll be home soon". I'm hoping that this book will also give us more training ideas. I'll keep you posted....
So happy to hear this! I put off trying the medication, both from a financial as well as health issue (for Cody). I totally know where you are coming from -...
You might be proceeding too fast for her. I wouldn't even start walking in and out of the door until she shows absolutely no response to you putting on your...
