I'm here in Falls Church (7 Corners) and will keep a lookout here. If I remember right, that food store is next to the bike path. Hope you posted fliers there. If I was a dog, that would be a heavenly place to keep running because of its flatness, less traffic, and doggie scents. Good luck!

First, I sort of thought this thread would have gone away by now, whatever. Granted, there are many different ways to teach proper bite and I have used three of them. None were nearly as fast or effective as the rag on the hand. The added plus to that method is two fold, as far as the way I...

Sorry, fell asleep last night to SNL. Thanx Lizzy. Actually I'm working on helping convert pets into helper dogs for those in need but can't afford thousands to pay for it. You know, the elders and ill, or even the people that have trouble picking things up off the floor. Even before sending...

Once again... showing bite control, not biting. Bane has never drawn a drop of blood. Still looking for someone to help me remove my posts. Would they go away if I just quit the forum?

Actually, I only want to remove the post. I've been out of work for four months after paying my fair share to save the banks and credit card companies. I need the vid to show perspective clients, but don't wish to further offend anyone. The rough play is my favorite thing about Bane. I know...

I was just made aware that my video is in bad taste in another forum. Can anyone tell me how I can remove it before offending anyone else?

I went ahead and made a better video of Bane at work doing some of his daily chores. I intend to use this to get some small in-home training jobs to help make ends meet until I get back to my regular job. Think it'll work? You should note that a very important aspect of "doing chores" around...

School is a great place to start, but if you aren't inclined to do a lot of reading and studying other trainers, you've pigeon-holed yourself into one style. You want to teach others in the method(s) you are most comfortable with, especially the people. I'm just starting out on my own and don't...

You mean like this? Google Image Result for http://roflamo.files.wordpress.com/2007/12/dog-on-toilet.jpg

I've been out of work for three months and am finally working towards a new career in dog training. I've done really well with all the guys I have trained in the past, but with my present guy (Bane), I've worked on training him as an in-house assistance dog, with a little protection skills on...

Thanx to all for your input. I think I will keep looking for a better fit. Study every style I can get my hands on.

I was looking into it until I checked out complaints against them on the web. They're out of California and named Animal Behavior College.

I also had another incident with my last two dobes They were brother and sister. The rabbits around here are just plain stupid. One year the mom plops her kids right next to a fence, unfortunately on the wrong side of that fence. My kids were finishing them off before I found out what they were...

I have some of my guys "tricks" on Youtube He gets me anything I point at or ask for if it's something he can identify. Just today he brought my laundry bag down from upstairs (again), turns on/off lights, brings in bags or light boxes from my truck. I don't like the term tricks tho. I have...

Thanx, When I looked I finally saw the "non-pet" description. Newbies... don't you hate our manners.
