We will be moving to germany and getting a dog there. We want a dog thats going to be smart(with training from us) and good for a future family. I want a big dog, like a sharpei (not sure on spelling), but I think he enjoys smaller dogs with more energy. Whats some good options for us?

Dog Training is one of the most important aspects of owning a pet. Dog training is a great confidence building experience for the entire family. Dog training is a process that we do with our dogs not to our dogs. Dog training is most effective when both you and your dog are enjoying yourselves and having fun. Dog training is a physical skill, so it’s easier to learn when you have an instructor showing you how to do it. Dog Training Isn’t About Your Dog Despite what other dog training books, videos, and experts may say, dog training isn’t about the dog. Dog training is communication — showing your dog how you want him to act in a way he understands.

Training Collar Main Features of a Dog Training Collar consists of two main components: A receiver that comes attached to an all-weather collar and a hand-held remote control transmitter that send signals to the receiver. Training is fun for you and your dog; it strengthens the bond, and improves your dog’s behavior. Training your dog not to pull on a leash is much more likely to be accomplished if he does not have free reign to pull as he pleases. Training opens up a line of communication between you and your dog. Training is bonding — working together so you and your dog enjoy each other’s company.

Behavior challenges: How to get your dog’s attention, both at home and around distractions how to deal with problem behaviors like barking, digging, mouthing, bolting through doors, chewing, and stealing food or objects from tables and counters. What to do about house training problems for puppies, young dogs and rescues how to teach your dog what you WANT him to do, how to teach your dog to behave and have fun while doing it. There is a strong correlation between homeless dogs and training/behavioral problems. Most behavioral problems are the results of a lack of understanding and interaction with our dogs.

Positive dog training is on the rise. Learn how to use Positive Training methods without becoming a doormat. You’ll find your relationship with your dog is enhanced when you apply proven positive reinforcement techniques. Take a positive approach to your dog training and it will become both an enjoyable and fulfilling activity. You should look for dog training classes that people and dogs enjoy attending, where they learn good techniques using humane and positive methods.

Anyone who considers a pet a beloved friend, companion, or family member knows the intense pain that accompanies the loss of that friend. The philosophy of Happy Dog Training is to integrate your dog into your family, thereby increasing his or her chances of a happy co-existence with the family. Dog training is a great confidence building experience for the entire family. You should make sure it is done the right way to achieve the best outcome for your entire family. A well-behaved dog can be a wonderful member of the family. A dog that is part of the family offers affection and fun. Give your four-legged family member a vacation, too. For instance, you should: Never feed your dog from the table - Your dog should be fed from his own dish after you and your family have eaten. Every dog requires understanding, patience and persistence on the human family’s part.

Dog Training is one of the most important aspects of owning a pet. Dog training is a great confidence building experience for the entire family. Dog training is a process that we do with our dogs not to our dogs. Dog training is most effective when both you and your dog are enjoying yourselves and having fun.

So_Wat asked:


How do you stop a dog from chewing furnitures and walls when you’re not home? The dog has severe separation anxiety from the family. Most of the time, there’s someone home, but when everyone’s out, the dog gets really anxious and scared. There are literally puddles of drool all over the floor. The family decided to keep the dog in a big laundry while the family’s away, but the dog manages to bite off the door frames and the wall. They’ve had this dog for 14 years, and he’s just begun doing this. The vet told them it’s old age. Does anyone have any solution?

John Williams Dog Training asked:


There comes a time in most home families when the children get a bit older and their dog or teddy is no longer the best thing in the world to play with, every new friend or existing friend your children make seems to have a cute little dog, and its only a matter of time before your children are going to start pestering you for one. So what should you look for is your serious about getting a family dog?

For starters your dog will need to be able to take everything your children can throw at it, children often don’t have any idea of how to handle a new pet dog so don’t expect them to play gently all the time, unknowing children have a tendency to be a little rough wile playing with dogs so a dog breed that can take some rough playing is essential.

Different dogs have different personalities just like humans do so be aware of this when purchasing a new dog, just because a dog breed is normally playful, energetic, and nice , this does not mean the one you get will be the same. Being prepared to put in work and time with your dog is also essential with a family dog because dog’s often take the things your children tell it to do as acceptable when this may not be the case, so dog behavior training will be needed at some point.

After considering the previous paragraphs I’m sure you will be pretty certain on whether you still want a dog for your home or not, if you do then here are some suggestions on different breeds that you may want to consider.

Golden Retriever. The golden retriever is a good popular choice for families because of their active and loyal personality and a good all round dog.

Boxer. Although the boxer may look big and intimidating to some, the boxer is a very good family dog in that they love being around people, they take care of the family members, and are always willing to play.

Labrador Retreiver. An extremely popular pet in many households across the world, the Labrador is a very friendly loving dog that loves to play and be very active for your kids to play with.

Beagle. The beagle is a very sturdy dog that can take plenty of roughness and playing, and loves to be active and meet new people. A very excited and curious dog that is great for family life.

Boston Terrier. The terrier is a gentle, well mannered dog and enjoys a challenge. Boston terriers are very easy to train and make for great family dogs and friends.

Irish Setter. A very affectionate dog, the Irish setter is a very good choice for families due to its liking for children and constant happy playful attitude.

I built the ball machine because I thought my dog Jerry, might like it and that it would be something fun for me to build. So after two years of on and off work, with many safety features such as IR proximity sensors to protect Jerry and my son from the machine, I finally complete.

Far from being a replacement for me, I was always right there with him enjoying his fun. And with all the troubles that I went through to build the ball machine, I still end up throwing more balls than that the machine could count! According to the computer, he played with the machine by himself only 3 times in his life.

I recently put this video on YouTube to keep alive my earlier memories of him and (hopefully) provide some “humorous distractions” for anyone that might drop by.

Please enjoy the video.
