A dog trainer shared with me, and I also read it somewhere, that one of a dog's greatest fear is to be left alone, because they fear their owner will never return for them.<br />

Cones, I read, are used to prevent a dog from
licking a wound, aggravating a hot spot, tearing out surgical
stitches or removing a bandage.<br />
<br />
Joaqui wears one because he scratches his ears once in a while. I take it out when he eats and drinks of course when he takes he baths). It's also off when I take him for a walk or whenever I have the time to monitor his actions.<br />
<br />
He doesn't mind wearing it. I see to it that there is no issue on comfort, mobility and visibility on his part.<br />

<span style="font-style: italic;">Josh Billings</span><br />
<br />
Animals are such agreeable friends. They ask no questions, they pass no criticisms.<br />
<span style="font-style: italic;">George Elliot</span><br />
<br />
I
used to look at (my dog) Smokey and think, 'If you were a little
smarter, you could tell me what you were thinking,' and he'd look at me
like he was saying, 'If you were a little smarter, I wouldn't have to.<br />
<span style="font-style: italic;">Fred Jungclaus</span><br />
<br />
I
have a great dog. She's half Lab, half pit bull. A good combination.
Sure, she might bite off my leg, but she'll bring it back to me.<br />
<span style="font-style: italic;">Jimi Celeste</span><br />
<br />
Don't make the mistake of treating your dogs like humans, or they'll treat you like dogs.<br />
<span style="font-style: italic;">Martha Scott</span><br />
<br />
When
you leave them in the morning, they stick their nose in the door crack
and stand there like a portrait until you turn the key eight hours
later.<br />
<span style="font-style: italic;">Erma Bombeck </span><br />
<br />
My little dog, a heartbeat at my feet.<br />
<span style="font-style: italic;">Edith Wharton</span><br />
<br />
You
can say any foolish thing to a dog, and the dog will give you a look
that says, 'My God, you're right! I never would've thought of that!'<br />
<span style="font-style: italic;">Dave Barry </span><br />
<br />
Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole.<br />
Roger Caras<br />
Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened.<br />
<span style="font-style: italic;">Anatole France</span><br />
<br />
They
[dogs] never talk about themselves but listen to you while you talk
about yourself, and keep up an appearance of being interested in the
conversation.<br />
<span style="font-style: italic;">Jerome K. Jerome </span><br />
<br />
In order to really enjoy a dog, one doesn't merely try to train him to be semi human.<br />
The point of it is to open oneself to the possibility of becoming partly a dog.<br />
<span style="font-style: italic;">Edward Hoagland</span><br />

Money will buy you a pretty good dog, but it won't buy the wag of his tail.<br />

<span style="font-weight: bold;">Tom's Little Dog by Walter de la Mare</span><br />
Tom told his dog called Tim to beg,<br />
And up at once he sat,<br />
His two clear amber eyes fixed fast,<br />
His haunches on his mat.Tom poised a lump of sugar on<br />
His nose; then, "Trust!" says he;<br />
Stiff as a guardsman sat his Tim;<br />
Never a hair stirred he.<br />
"Paid for!" says Tom; and in a trice<br />
Up jerked that moist black nose;<br />
A snap of teeth, a crunch, a munch,<br />
And down the sugar goes!Next Big Ideahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07979899058292087584noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7646454317045712896.post-3371792033875435622012-10-25T21:36:00.000-07:002013-04-27T07:58:17.621-07:00Home, But Not AloneMy dogs are my constant companions.

<br />
We have the training area for ourselves, so we went ahead and proceeded to our "NO-LEASH" training. Great!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Not that easy, even the trainer should be fit, or else he would be getting tired ahead of the dog, LOL.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Weave poles are the hardest for us. One trainer advised us to focus on the long dog walk first then everything else will be easier. Of course the see-saw is a challenge because of the thumping sound when the plank hits the ground.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I guess the easiest to master would be the A-frame then the hurdles then the tire ring (though not that easy at first, and still with leash-on, take note).<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
The tunnels are also great challenges because the dog can only hear your voice but cannot see you guiding him, especially the collapsed tunnel.<br />
