I get the same reactions to Petey....people have Doberman predudice that's just not true. Petey will attack you....and lick you to death! I hated training class, the trainer is old fashioned....and cruel. He has people jerking puppies around with choke collars. I may not go back, I couldn't stand seeing these happy puppies all being bullied to be obedient. They looked so sad and confused. I've already been to positive obedience with Petey, so I know there is a better way for a young puppy. Petey is older and stronger, he needs to know who is boss with a bit of force, but a 3 month old little lab puppy, needs treats and guidance, not being choked! I was sooooo mad, I wanted to put a choke collar on the trainer and jerk him around for a bit!!! Too late for me to get my money back. I still feel sick over it.

Good Dog books to read. Merles Door and the Loved Dog.

Have a great Thursday.

HI TO SENROCK!

I've been involved in a couple of really severe dog attacks by Pit Bulls and I don't even hate them, those particular animals or the breed in general. I just understand that they were doing what they do when their owners aren't worthy of them and have treated them poorly and taught them badly. I find it sad that so many people seem so afraid of particular breeds now when a lot of the time it's their own inability to interact with animals that causes the problem in the first place!
I didn't get to take Lukin to Obedience School this morning but I'll take him on Sunday instead. It's only $45 for the rest of the year and you can go twice a week. I've spoken to the guy, he sounded nice and he said to bring a pouch of treats, so I'm assuming it's a reward based training, and it was recommended by my vet. If anybody thinks I'll be beating or choking my dog into submission they're sadly mistaken. I think you're right to go back to the positive obedience place and give that other jerk a wide berth! People like that really bug me!
