Help, new puppy growling at older dog !

Question:

HOWEDY leah,

We got a rescue puppy today, lab/shep mix Make sure she feels safe,

Yeah. Like you do your dogs. "For a quick sit and down, she needed corrections. When we first got out there and I told her to sit the normal way (verbal cue and hand signal), she totally blew me off. So Rick came over and showed me how to correct her. And she did yelp a couple of times.  Even once when I corrected her, and I know that *I* didn’t do it very hard. I think it was out of surprise, not pain. At first she gave him a hard time, rearing up and trying to back away from the leash.  But she very quickly settled down and did what he wanted.  When he praised her, she looked adoringly at him and wagged her tail." but don’t coddle her.

Your own dog bit you five times and you’ve been bit a few times at work and you murdered your own DEAD DOG Buck cause you was too lazy to walk him and wouldn’t restrict salt for his congestive heart failure and wouldn’t stop givin him french fries and pizza with his lasix. In other words,

IOW, you MURDERED your own DEAD DOG Buck cause you’re an ignorant lazy stupid dog abusing mental case. don’t start handing her around to people

You mean to untrained folks who’d accidentally jerk and choke IT on a pronged spiked pinch choke collar? or forcing her to interact with other dogs.

Like you taught your recent "GRADUATE STUDENT" who ate a other dog at the park last week?  Let her approach others at her own pace.

You mean let the dog train hisself? But also don’t "aw, poor baby" at her.

You mean don’t comfort her when she’s afraid. Whenever your lab approaches her, cheerlead her – "Oh, wow, a doggie, what fun!"

That might overstimulate the pup to bite her.  She’s going to take her cues from your tone of voice, not your words.

That so? You mean cause dogs don’t understand  words.  If you try to soothe her, she’ll get an entirely different message than if you cheerlead her.

Do we need cheerleading uniforms for this part?  Praise every encounter – even if she just looks at the lab – like she did something wonderful.

Yeah. Let her growl.

BWEEEAHAHAHAHAHAAA!!!   It’s her way of saying, "Don’t come too close –  I’m afraid of you."

So we should let her be afraid and threaten the other dog. Establish a routine with her as quickly as possible.

Like lettin her grHOWEL and be afraid.  Dogs love routine.

The Amazing Puppy Wizard loves cheerleading uniforms.  If she knows what to expect,

You mean from a routine. she’ll be more confident.

That so?  For at least the first few days, keep her life quiet –

Instead of actin normal? no visitors to see the new puppy,

Woudn’t wanna make the dog uncomfortable. no trips anywhere besides the vet, etc.

Yeah. That’ll be FUN. After she’s settled in (at least a couple of weeks),

You mean instead of TRAINING her in a couple days. get her into a puppy class that emphasizes socialization.

Oh? You mean instead of trainin? PetsMart Pet Trainer

You’re a FRAUD. My Kids, My Students, My Life:

Your own dog Madigan bit you five times and destroyed your HOWES and marriage. IOW, you’re a MENTAL CASE a LIAR and a DOG ABUSER. The Amazing Puppy Wizard. <{} ; ~  )

HOWEDY pat,

We got a rescue puppy today, lab/shep mix about 15 weeks old she’s pretty scared and totally untrained. Mark Hi Mark,   I was going to say all will be ok with two Labs.

That so, pat? You read that in today’s horoscope? However I read it again.

Good for you, pat. The fact that it is a lab /Shepherd….

A dog is a dog, pat. I would say stop it now.

Stop what, pat? I had an old Lab x and a GSD…

That so? You’re a mental case, pat. Shepherd died leaving the Lab x.

Sometimes death is a BLESSING, pat. Went out and got another Shepherd….

Well good for you, pat. she did bully/play with the old Lab.

IOW you had the same problem. Everyone said they will sort their out.

But everyWON was DEAD WRONG, eh pat? I did leave it and she bullied the Lab….

That’s kindly of you, pat. in play that is.

So it was no problem, eh pat? So I stepped in and stopped it..

Despite that you didn’t know HOWE. wishing I had done it sooner

Right… She knew she was the strongest and used that.

IOW she wasn’t playin, pat. Shepherds are mainly dominant

That so, pat? so that maybe the part you are seeing.

Could be you haven’t taken your anti psychotic medications today, pat. OR it maybe she is just plain scared..

You think the dog is acting just plain scared cause she’s just plain scared, pat? which is possible.

INDEED? Trying to make her self look fierce.

That so? Better that than tryin to make yourself sHOWEND intelligent, pat. In which case all will be ok in a few days.

That so, pat? Pat.

You’re a MENTAL CASE, pat. – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text —— Original Message —– To: The Puppy Wizard Sent: Friday, March 12, 2004 4:35 AM Hey J, Glad to see you’re still trying to set the Abusegroup straight.  I dunno where you get your perseverance from, they exhausted me ages ago, I still read it occasionally and the advice isn’t getting any better, keep up the good work. Paul Disciple Paulie Writes: I’ve never forced my dogs to do anything, I tell them they are good dogs and they seem to follow me, once I told them they were bad dogs and they ran away from me, now I only ever tell them they are good dogs and they always are, always. Trust your dog, ask it to do your request and say "good dog" sincerely at the end of the request and I bet you’ll find your dog thinking then responding everytime. A bit of respect works wonders, the same rule applies to every aspect of the relationship with your dog. Obedience and affection are not related, if they were everyone would have obedient dogs. Paul. — Original Message —– To: The Puppy Wizard Sent: Thursday, August 07, 2003 8:00 AM Hey J, I see nothings changed on the NG. Still the same old crappy advice and misunderstanding of the only advice worth reading. The problem with your method J is that I can’t answer the questions on the NG no more, people are after a quick fix, they don’t want to understand that dog training requires a disiplined method, I’m now really understanding that they are all result orientated, they want the dog to sit, to down, to stay, to come, to stop it’s "bad" behaviours, they want to stamp out each anxiety one at a time not realising they create a new one as they deal with the last. I feel sorry for them, they don’t understand, they don’t even realise the errors of thier ways and they arn’t self thinkers, they follow the majority, after all if everyone says thats the way then it must be. I’ve finally realised people don’t want to learn to train dogs they want a trained dog, they want a little puppet that sits and stays and downs and does all the nice doggy stuff or so they think, then when the dog acts like a dog they come squealing to the NG asking how to stop the dog being a dog. I have a nice little visulisation of a dogs mind that I think demonstrates the way we approach dog training. Imagine lots of little circles all in a cluster, each one representing a dog anxiety or behaviour ( desied or not), each circle represents something about the dog, all of them create what a dog is. The traditional way to train a dog is to stamp out the "bad" circles, try to eliminate as many as you can, problem is each one you stamp out another takes it’s place (anxiety circles can’t be destroyed they just change), obviously it’s a futile exercise, but thats the traditional way. Now imagine a big circle that completely surrounds all the small circles, this big circle is the whole dog, that’s what we get hold of with all the little circles inside, we don’t see the little circles we see the BIG circle the macro as you put it and use that to train. I laugh now when I see posts critisising you, they are critising something they don’t even understand or even have the capacity to understand.

I’ve never heard you contradict yourself.  A trait that’s unheard of in newsgroups these days. And I’ll vouch it’s not bullshit. Ta N HOWEDY N, Indeed.

HOWEDY Mark,

We got a rescue puppy today,

Good. lab/shep mix

A dog is a dog. about 15 weeks old

A three week old pup is smart engough to learn anything you can teach him. she’s pretty scared and totally untrained.

No problem: – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text —— Original Message —– Sent: Friday, November 29, 2002 7:54 AM Jerry! You helped me with my pal Dundee about a year ago regarding submissive peeing.  Just wanted to let you know he’s doing great- he was "cured" in about 2 days using your techniques! He has since become the "smartest dog in the world"! Once I stopped thinking like a human and got inside his head, I can teach him ANYTHING, usually in a matter of minutes.  Makes me look like an expert dog-trainer. I rescued two strays last week, cleaned ‘em up, wormed ‘em, and am getting them their shots. Time to get inside their heads and teach them to teach themselves how to be good dogs! Instead of feeling like "training" is a chore, I look forward to working with these guys a couple times a day… Although I don’t follow your instructions "to a T", I learned from you to "think like a dog" and stimulate their brain rather than beating ass or pinching, or any of that nonsense. I know damn well I would NOT be loyal to someone who beat MY ass lol! Well, just wanted to thank you for rattling the bushes out there and teaching folks the RIGHT way to "train" dogs. A horseman friend of mine uses very similar techniques in training his horses- he calls it "natural horsemanship".  He is hated by nearly all the local "trainers" yet somehow he repeatedly wins at every show he attends. He rarely shows any more, but goes now and then to rub their noses in it (pun intended)…  Too cool…. Have a great holiday season and keep up the good work! Eric , Dundee, Sammy, and Maynard When our 4 year old yellow lab goes near the puppy it growls at her. Any behavior that’s predictably repeatable can be EXXXTINGUISHED NEARLY INSTANTLY if you know HOWE. "The Methods, Principles, And Philosophy Of Behavior Never Change, Or They’d Not Be Scientific And Would Not Obtain Consistent, Reliable, Fast, Effective Results For All Handler’s And All Dogs, As Taught In Your FREE Copy Of The Puppy Wizard’s FREE WWW Wits’ End Dog Training Method Manual." Of course the 4 yr old lab is a big chicken and backs away from the puppy. That’s kindly of him. This is gonna sound stupid but we’ve only had the puppy about 4 hours and she is very scared so we’re hoping that this is not a sign of things to come and that once the puppy settles and gets used to everyone we won’t have a problem. Study your FREE copy of The Puppy Wizard’s FREE WWW Wits’ End Dog Training Method Manual available for FREE at http://www.doggydoright.com It’ll only take an HOWER or so to study and implement the scientific and psychological non physical techniques to make your dog naturally want to do every thing you ask. She was the shy one of the two puppies that were available and she was covered with dirt and other stuff and had a bath when we got home so it has been a pretty traumatic 4 hours for her. Yeah. There wasn’t much history on her except she came from VA with her 6 sisters. Don’t need history. A dog’s a dog. Dogs respond in predictable innate normal natural instinctive reflexive ways to sitauations and circumstances of their environment which we create for them. Any thoughts on this behavior? Yeah. All behavior problems are caused by mishandling. You’ll be told to bribe and ignore your pup cause giving attention to bad behaviors reinforces them. HOWEver, the PROBLEM IS the good folks who tell us THAT are the same good folks who jerk and choke dogs on pronged spiked pinch choke collars and spray aversives in their faces and shock and lock their dogs in boxes and know when to MURDER dogs they’re afraid to hurt someMOORE. Thanks, —– Original Message —– Hi Jerry, Send the post to whom ever you wish to. Believe me I will keep you updated. I got to tell you His amazing progress almost makes me cry. Kay Pierce —– Original Message —– Hello Jerry, Hunter and I started working the recall and family pack exercise today. On leash and in the house he has a perfect recall. And I think he really started to relax and enjoy himself I swear he was laughing. I had taught him to go to  the heel position when he comes to me years ago. And over the past few months I have had to tell him to go there. Today he flew into the heel position each and every time without me saying a word to him about it. He has never bounced like that before. I trained him using conventional methods with a choker and pinch collar. Over the past few days we have been using his regular collar. I can tell that he enjoys it more. As I mentioned before I am a dog trainer and when I trained my latest dog I used all positive reinforcements techniques. When I trained for that I had been amazed at the results. Your method takes positive training to the next level and should really be used by all trainers who call themselves trainers. My Hunter is concentrating on me and not on the treat he thinks he wants. My other dog wants treats before she’ll do anything. As soon as I get Hunter straightened out she’s next. Thank you so much, Kay Pierce —– Original Message —– Sent: Saturday, July 27, 2002 10:26 PM Should Always Be Given The Cold, Hard Facts: They Should NEVER FEEL GUILTY For Having An Aggressive Dog Euthanized." Dear Jerry, It’s Kay here. I don’t know who these people are that maligning you and your training manual but tell them from me that it does work. Hunter is just doing so well even the people who advocated putting him down are impressed with him. I even started using it with the neighbor’s dog. I went over there to help her cut his nails. She started yelling at him for growling at me. I told her to tell him what a good boy he is instead. Lo and behold he stopped growling and I could do his nails. All 4 feet. My dog Hunter was trained with the old jerk and pull method and my other dog was trained with treats. Hunter has gotten his enthusiam back for his training and I couldn’t be more pleased. He even tried to kiss a child the other day. Major break through. This is the dog that a few months ago tried to eat the kids through the fence. I can now take him in the car with me again without him trying to chase cars through the windshield. So Jerry tell these people that the first rule of dog training is Do No Harm. The 2nd rule is whatever works without breaking the first rule. Aggesive dogs don’t need to be put down. Hunter was diagnosed aggresive and he is going to stay alive and by my side where he belongs. Thank you so much. Kay HOWEDY Group, Here some SUCCESS STORIES ive had using JERRY’S MANUAL 1) My dogz, two bitches – Vicious, barking, aggressive, pulled on leash, wanted to kill any dogs they saw, fought between each other. TWO WEEKS using Jerry’s manual, they were calm, friends, my companions. 2) ADDED A BEAGLE PUPPY (male) to my "PACK", the girls had -NO PROBLEMS- with him from the moment I dropped him by their noses. 3) My FRIENDS dogs  2 MALES barking and jumping at the fence all night 3 DAYS TRAINING WITH JERRY’S MANUAL they were CALMED AND HAVEN’T BARKED ONCE! Added a NEW MALE DOG (2 yrs old) AND WELCOMED HIM WITH NO WUCKAS ! 4) POODLE that ATE food from the KITCHEN BENCH – lock him in a box? NO! USE JERRYS MANUAL! 4 DAYS AND HES NEVER DONE IT SINCE! 5) ABUSED DOGS AT THE SHELTER I WORK AT – HAD TO BE FED WITH A BUCKET ON  A STICK – ONE WEEK ON JERRYS MANUAL, THE SUPERVISOR TOLD ME TO PUT THEM IN THE PUBLIC KENNELS FOR SALE ! Quite amazing to – I thought they were just dull coloured dogs, but after I had removed the fear and anxiety their hairs coloured up amazingly. 6) STAFFY FEMALE who would NOT DROP HER BALL! She carried it around all day and night – 3 DAYS on jerrys MANUAL and she now DROPS it when u ASK her to! BWHWHAHAHAHAAHA !!!! Nevyn I read through his manual and tried the techniques on my puppy, who looked like growing up to be a mean-assed dog like her daddy. Guess what?  It worked. More forceful methods might have allowed me to control her, but I don’t think I’d have the exquisitely gentle and well-behaved dog I do now. Charlie Hell, if Jerry Howe had simply pointed to his training manual occasionally instead of trying to bludgeon people with his "method", I might have given it a 3rd read to try to find something I could use in there.  Maybe not. Lynn K. I came here almost two years ago with an aggressive female pup from hard-core "protection" stock. The message I got from nearly everyone was that I need to show my dog who is boss, draw lines in the sand, absolutely refuse to tolerate this and that. Jerry has a different approach, and he delivered some extremely helpful insights. Now, my dog is not quite two years old, and I could probably put her in some kind of
