    The Chazhound Book Thread.

    Wow, I am a freelance book reader, or was, until just about two months ago. I would read books and write opinion for my publishing company - did it for 7 years. However, my "real" job takes to much of my time - mother and full time VP managing 4 servicing departments. The last year or so most...

    How do I train my dog to stay housetrained when I'm gone?

    That's a nice thought but did you know that dogs don't run around and play while your gone, they sleep!! At 1 year old you are asking alot of your dog, IMO. My dog wasn't reliable (even with me home) until he was 17 months old. The crate is a wonderful training tool and.. it becomes a space...

    Breastfeeding......

    What devotion to pump for 20 years!! Once that Milk starts it dosen't stop until the supply and demand goes away. Look at Wet Nurses back in the old days. And slaves who were wet nurses for the plantation woman , they actually breast fed babies of other woman.

    Breastfeeding......

    I nursed all three of my children and would not have changed that expierenced for the world. You have gotten good advice, pumping to release engorgment is not the right thing to dog. Just expressing a little bit in the bathroom will relieve it. Warm showers or compresses help too. The more...

    *EVIL PLAN* Shall I do it? NEED OPINIONS!!

    About 10 years ago I live in a small house on a dead end street. The neighbor's rented their house to a girl with a greyhound. Nice dog but he pooped all over the "road". It was a small, lake community road on a dead end so the only people affected by it were me and one neighbor. It got so...

    Growling

    When I got my new rescue she growled every time she anywhere near out other dogs. But she would look like she was trying to play. I was nervous about this at first and so were my resident dogs. They were taken about too. Then on night my husband was playing with her and growling started, it...

    Hello everyone

    If that is true, that is really bad!! I don't think I care to go back much. So they treat their moderators like their members? Unimportant: :confused:

    Default obedience?

    Dogs need to be trained hand signals. Training with hand signals starts with combining your verbal command with the hand signal. Your dog will soon learn to associate your hand signal with the desired action and will respond to either verbal or hand signal. Dogs often learn hand signals...

    Default obedience?

    All of my dogs know their hand signals without the verbal and respond well to most verbal without hand signals. But for the most part I use both together. For my Swissy verbal commands come, sit and heel are 100%. But down and stay ususally need a my hand signal for reliablility. I think...
