HELP - How do I stop my dog from howling?

Hey, no problem - glad there are some improvements.

Here’s something that may interest you:

From what I can gather, they employ similar techniques to Cesar Millan (or he to they), and they have branches in Taiwan. They guarantee to fix any problem in two hours … for life.

Now, I’ve wanted to get them over to chez Stray Dog to help me work with some of the more timid dogs here, but I’ve decided to wait until we move into the new holding facility, where there will be more space; however, if you live in northern Taiwan and would like to employ their services to teach your dog to calm down more, I would happily split the fee with you if I could sit in on the session - wann try it? :slight_smile:

Also, when I switched my youngest dogs from kibble (Science Diet) to a natural diet, they both calmed down considerably, but still maintained their playfulness at exercise time. There’s another thread on here about natural diets: [url]Dog Food Brands

BTW, by being calm and assertive around your dog, you’re encouraging your dog to be calm and submissive, and you’ve started to experience the benefits of letting your dog know who is boss; how do you feel the dog feels about his new, lower status in your pack?
