On August 17, 2011, around 8:00 p.m. four-year-old Ayen Chol was watching television with her cousins in the living room of a relative’s home when a neighbor’s Pit Bull Terrier-mix ran into the house and attacked and killed her as she fought against the animal.

Her cousin, Anglina Mayout, 30, was bitten on her hands and arms trying to stop the attack by the dog, even beating it with a table to protect the children. Anglina’s five-year-old daughter also suffered serious bite wounds to the back of her head.  The attack occurred in the Melbourne, Australia, suburb of St. Albans, which is governed by New South Wales (NSW).

The Herald Sun reports, “Ayen was clinging to her mum's leg when she was fatally mauled.” feeds@yuku.com (MyGully) http://forum.caninesupportgroup.com/topic/4731 Sun, 04 Sep 2011 21:47:26 PST http://forum.caninesupportgroup.com/topic/4304/Puppy-with-an-attitude-problem feeds@yuku.com (Kapuahone) http://forum.caninesupportgroup.com/topic/4304 Fri, 18 Feb 2011 01:43:53 PST http://forum.caninesupportgroup.com/topic/4064/Merry-Christmas-To-all-here I wanted to wish everyone a wonderful Christmas and an even more wonderful New  Year!

I got 'Coupe' a "CRATE"
Seems to be going good, thus far...

I put in there, a blanket and a 'chewy toy'
and...
Covered the crate with another blanket to make it feel 'cozy'

Anything I am missing?

I hope...and PRay...this will solve the 'mis haps...'
Accidents, with pees and poos...

How 'bout that?'

Doing good?
Am I a good puppy mom? YET?

TRYING!

Now I am just telling her no and saying off and pushing her feet on the floor. But then I think she see that as attention and will keep doing it. So I tried to reward her when she doesn't jump on the counter. She is trained to go to the mat and if I say mat she will go sit on the mat. The minute I release her she is back to the table or the counter. The only good thing from this she has learned the drop it and leave it command. The minute I say drop it and leave it she will. I am not sure if she thinks this is part of the plan to... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Brandy mom) http://forum.caninesupportgroup.com/topic/3607 Sun, 05 Sep 2010 14:23:06 PST http://forum.caninesupportgroup.com/topic/3584/This-darn-DOG-

She will not come from her yard trip.  I have fenced yard and she does fine in it but when she is ready to come in she just lies down for me to come get her.  she will not come back.  She at times will come to my hand and sniff in the house if I am in the floor.  She wants to come to be fed but will then run and I have to go get her and take her to her food bowl and close her in the bedroom then she eats well.   I... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (birdk) http://forum.caninesupportgroup.com/topic/3564 Sun, 29 Aug 2010 10:01:25 PST http://forum.caninesupportgroup.com/topic/3519/Whining-

Heels?

You know what I mean?
So...

I'm walking 'Coupe' and things are pretty good.
But...

Every so often, she'll nip at my heals, and I pull her away, and scold her for it, but...
Well, she keeps doing this...why?

I don't 'get it'
Any help?

What is the 'right thing to do?'
I don't like scolding her...Does this make me a bad puppy mom?

She ignores me, runs around...like it's a big game...I don't know how to deal with it!

She's driving me...cuz I wish to let her off the leash, at our local park, but...when I call her, she 'ignores me'
orrr...worse yet, she runs circles around me, and I can't catch her.

I'm disabled, this is not 'fun' NOT FUN!

what's the 'trick?'

Establishing and Keeping Alpha Position 
Letting your dog know you are the boss
(Top Dog)

Below are a list of rules every dog owner should follow to ensure your dog knows his place in your human pack. If your dog guards his food, or growls at humans in the family, and especially if you own a wolf hybrid, these rules should be strictly followed. Dogs need to have a clear place in their pack. A dog lacking in this clear order is an unhappy dog.
Sometimes, a dog might not be showing signs of aggression, however the dog is suddenly showing signs of separation anxiety, such as destructive behaviors when you leave the house. A dog who questions his place in the household pack can sometimes cause him... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Johanna13) http://forum.caninesupportgroup.com/topic/3108 Mon, 05 Jul 2010 22:08:09 PST
