CARE & TRAINING

A Dog's Best Friend

O Lord, don't let me once forget
How I love my trusty pet-
Help me learn to disregard
canine craters in my yard
Show me how to be a buddy
even when my sofa's muddy,
Don't allow my pooch to munch
postal carriers for lunch,
Shield my neighbor's cat from view,
guide my steps around the doo,
Train me not to curse and scowl,
when it's puppy's night to howl,
Grant I shan't awake in fear
with a cold nose in my ear,
Give me patience without end-
Help me be "A DOG'S BEST FRIEND."

TEN COMMANDMENTS OF A RESPONSIBLE PET OWNER

1. My life is likely to last 10 to 15 years. Any seperation from you will be very painful.
2. Give me time to understand what you want of me.
3. Place your trust in me- it is crucial for my well-being.
4. Don't be angry with me for long, and don't lock me up for my punishment. You have your work, your friends, your entertainment. I have only you!
5. Talk to me. Even if I don't understand your words, I understand your voice when it's speaking to me.
6. Be aware that however you treat me, I'll NEVER forget it.
7. Before you hit me, remember that I have teeth that could easily crush the bones in your hand, but I choose not to bite you.
8. Before you scold be for being lazy or uncooperative, ask yourself if something might be bothering me. Perhaps I'm not getting the right food, I've been out in the sun too long, or my heart may be getting old and weak.
9. Take care of me when I get old. You, too, will grow old.
10. Go with me on difficult journeys. Never say, "I can't bear to watch it" or, "Let it happen on my absence." Everything is easier for ME if you are there. Remember, I love you.

UNCHAIN YOUR DOG

Obedience training is a wonderful outlet for your amstaff.
It encourages him to employ his myriad talents by making demands on
his intelligence, trainability, agility, cleverness and memory.
  Besides stimulating your dog's inborn desire
to please and educating him in self control, obedience training fosters the 
human-animal bond and molds you and your dog into a team.
  It is highly recommeded that all dogs be trained, at least, in basic obedience. 
The discipline of obedience training will bring direction and stability
into their lives, making them more agreeable companions whether or not
they go on to compete in obedience trials.

THE DOG WHISPERER

THE CANINE BILL OF RIGHTS

I have the right to give and receive unconditional love

I have the right to a life that is beyond mere survival

I have the right to be trained so I do not become the prisoner of my own misbehavior

I have the right to adequate food and medical care

I have the right to socialize with people and dogs outside of my family    

I have the right to have my needs and wants respected

I have the right to special time with my people

I have the right to only be bred responsibly-if not at all

I have the right to some time and space all my own

I have the right to be foolish and silly, and to make my person laugh

I have the right to earn my person's trust and to be trusted in return

I have the right to be forgiven

I have the right to die with dignity
