Bully Breed's and the right way to train them!!!!!!!!

Pitbulls, Bull Dogs, French Bull dogs etc...

When you see a bully breed or if you have one, most of the time trainers will say use treats to get them out of aggression, or pop the collar.. and say with a hard NO!!!!!!

well that all good and dandy but why bully a bully breed...
even ceaser millan does it, just remember too much tention is not a good thing for a bully breed, they challange and challange, and a lot of owners are not good with a challange... So here are a bunch of tips for you to know that way it's easy on you.....

First, apply a halti on your dog, if your havd a bull dog, or French bull dog, then a chest harnest, or Martin-Gale is reqired for this.....

not if your dog lunges then stand in front and relax the leash,

have your dog look at you, and have the dog sit.. Rule of Thumb is when the dog sits they are calm, if the dog lays they are in the most submissive position,
Alpha dog is required if your losing control of your dog, (Alpha dog is placing your dog on the side and holding your dog down)

everything with a bully breed needs to be in a calm way, challange if nesseary, if you are able to really control your dog, do your best to control before walking past a dog, ....

Please contact a professional behaviorist (not a trainer) to get a good method on your dogs behavior and how to work with it, don't use shock collars, you will make the behavior worst..

Why dogs don't like cats

Why cats don't like dogs, or the other way around... There many thyrus for this...

But many time people try to avoid them, sometimes good to do cause well dogs are off the walls, but if you have a cat at home and you have a dog or puppy, then you have to have them co-exist,

I get this call everyday so I feel like this must be said, don't listen to a trainer, read this blog and try it, this is the only real method that will work...

Things you need

1. Crate
2. Collar and leash
3. Treats

set the crate up, make sure it's comfortable for the cat, insert the cat in, (please make sure the dog has gotten a lot of excersie, and knows basic obediance, before doing this, as well make sure you have someone with you in the room)
now apply the collar and leash on your dog.. Start with a heal apporching the cat in the crate, have the dog sniff the crate, make sure the cat knows your apporching, if the cat hisses, starts to go nuts it will set the dog off, therefore the extra person will calm the cat down, if the dog starts to go nuts make sure you use the correction, if that doesn't work exit the room and try again, when the dog is doing good you reward, prasie, have the dog sit and lay next to the crate with the cat in it, once you have accomplished a common ground...

This excersie needs to be done everyday, you will establish dog and cat relationship, sometimes it takes longer, sometimes it's right away... But you will have peace
