Hmmm, although in the light of day! And thinking back, I did the exact same thing as Richy! I came on the Boards GSD and Boxer "after" I got my "issues" with my GSD solved!
Human Aggression and life with "most" Boxers ill prepares one to deal with that! But what I did learn from Boxers was the KISS principle! Your voice and inflection carry a lot of power and show them what you want!
So applying that as a guideline I did this:
Leerburg | Who Pets Your Puppy or Dog (the walking part)
Keep people/dogs out of his face, move on and ignore, show him what you want! Pretty simple worked great and I do that with every dog I work with now!
It's so simple in fact...that I doubt "anyone" would have recommended it as a solution??
But in the middle of a "crisis" some of us have a hard time with two-way communications! So "some" of us just want to know what can I do right "freaking now??"
So we go online! The problem there is that without a guide and depending on the level of experience...all the info looks pretty much the same??
I try and break down what people like Cesar Millan do. First use real tools, second set rules, boundaries and limits! The rest...looks like "magic!"
Jeff Gellman has the largest volume of information available and he shows and explains what he does and how he does it!
Free Advice – Solid K9 Training
As he says "everything people need to know to "successfully" train there dog is available for free on my website!
The problem is the available information is uh "huge!" So where to start??? That's what I try and do! And yeah at times I can tend to be kinda "loud!" Trying to work on that!
And I have received lots of support here! THose that are here when I first got here, I'm sure have seen the changes?? I was kinda the "bad dawg" in the Dog Park!
So thanks all for sticking with me and to the BoxerForum for giving me the flexiability to actually cite sources! For the record that "was" a veild reference to another Boxer Forum! It did not go well, so I ,said see ya!
Good luck to anyone that goes there for a dog with real problems! If cookies and treat don't do it... PTS will!!
I was Gunther over there for the truly curious.
Hmm well...yet another long post, kinda odd for a welcome intro?? But that seems to be what I do! :chatterbox:
But yeah once again welcome Richy enjoy your stay!:clap:
