Well, it’s official.
Another 4 to 12 inches of snow expected tonight into tomorrow morning.
We already have two and half feet of the stuff and I had to shovel out a place for my dog to take care of business. It would also be nice to take a long hike in the woods, but I think I am going to have to invest in some snow shoes.
Anyway, the last time we had a winter this bad I got a call from a very distressed border collie owner.
She worked long hours and because of work and weather conditions her poor dog was really going nuts. Every dog needs exercise but border collies need jobs. They really have an incredible desire to work and run.
By the time I got called in, things had gone from bad to really, really bad.
You see, she lived in an apartment and her dog had chewed a hole in the wall and gone right through it. Her dog was in her neighbor’s apartment when she came home. The neighbor was none too happy and that’s when I got the call.
I put together a program for her that included a lot of exercise for her dog. Luckily, there was a dog daycare in the area that her dog could go to a few times a week. We also taught her what was acceptable and what was UN-Acceptable to chew on.
Within a few weeks, the neighbor got over the hole in the wall and the border collie responded very well to the training.
The scary part of all of this was what was going to happen if the training program that I recommended did not work. She knew that she was going to have to find her dog a new home which would have broken her heart.
But, it all turned out good.
A lot of what I showed her to do is in the Good K9 Manners program that you can still get at a reduced price for two more days.
Hop on over to Good K9 Manners and use the code 10-OFFK9MANNERS to get the special discount.
All the best,

Tiny Dog Has Been Barking Nonstop For 6 Years
Funny little video a friend sent to me. My friend sent it to me because he has a little eight month old beagle that likes to bark all the time. He sent it to thank me because I helped him bring his dog’s barking problem under control.
You see, when he contacted me a few months ago I sent him to the Good K9 Manners course which has a section on how to fix any barking problem. Barking is no longer a problem.
In case you missed it you can still get the Good K9 Manners course for less than you think.
Go to Good K9 Manners and type DOGTVMANNERS to get the complete course at a special price but it won’t last much longer.

Get this… Hungarian scientists are working on computer
software that analyzes dog barks so people can better
recognize their emotions.
It’s true.
And get this… the researchers tested the software in 6
situations: when the dog is alone, when it sees a ball, it
fights, it plays, it encounters a stranger or it goes for
a walk.
But here’s the best part: The computer correctly recognized
the emotional reaction of the dogs based on their barks and
yelps in 43 percent of the cases. People had judged correctly
in 40 percent of cases.
Scientists said the software could be improved.
Why is this important to you?
Imagine if your dog could let you know that they need to go
outside to pee, or if your dog could let you know that they
are pent up and need some exercise before they chew your shoes.
Unfortunately, we have to make do without the software and we
have to communicate what is acceptable and un-acceptable behavior
in the house.
It is one of the reasons I developed the Good K9 Manners course.
The course will help you communicate to your dog that:
* Chewing
* Jumping
* Stealing
* Unruly Behavior
* Barking uncontrollably
are all un-acceptable behaviors.
In case you missed it in yesterday’s Train Your Dog TV, you
can get the Good K9 Manners course for less than you think.
Go to Good K9 Manners and type DOGTVMANNERS and you’ll
get the reduced price.
This won’t last long.
Good K9 Manners and don’t forget DOGTVMANNERS.
All the best,
Eric
