Only thing is a chihuahua in rescue would cost more than
$150.00. Paps in rescue cost up to $400.00 depending on
age.

I do agree that it would be in the best interest of the
dog to seek assistance from rescue. As for
the keeping it, well maybe it is better off in a new
home that would love it. One that wouldn't be inclined
to dump the dog at the drop of the pin as this post
appears to be.

Paps are not nearly as common as Chihuahuas. At my local shelter, you can
find anywhere from 2-10 Chihuahuas at any time of the year. There are four
right now, and adoption fees include vaccinations and spay/neuter. Rescue
groups may charge more, but they are taking in animals in a variety of ages
and conditions, including puppies and senior dogs; they are getting them vet
care and speutering, and they are fostering the dogs, evaluating the dogs
and potential homes, and putting on adoption events, all of which costs a
considerable amount of time and money. I highly doubt this half-hearted dog
owner is doing anything to benefit the $150 fee.

It only takes a few minutes a day to care for a dog.
Most people who give up their dogs do so because
of behavior problems.

SO CALLED professional dog trainers don't LIKE

simply CANNOT understand the concept that in
order to get 100% TOTAL NON PHYSICAL CONTROL
they've got to GIVE UP PHYSICAL CON-TROLL
and start workin with their BRAINS.

But that makes them FEEL like they're not

SO CALLED professional trainers CANNOT
UNDERSTAND HOWE a dog can LEARN
if they're not "CORRECTING" and bribing
or "REWARDING" IT.

Punishment and bribery have NO place in training.
You CANNOT REWARD a past behavior the dog
AIN'T THINKIN of doin.

It's MOORE important. Praise in advance
will usually cause the dog to think correctly.

And if it don't, NO PROBLEMO! We can

Bribing can only teach GREED and distracts
the dog or child from THINKING of the lesson.
Withholding bribes as in clicker training INCREASES
anxiHOWESNESS to dangerHOWES levels.

THAT'S HOWE COME click / treat trained
dogs often FAIL when facing REAL LIFE
situations. Every time the C/T trained dog
is asked to do a command he REFLEXES
to the anxiHOWESNESS of the initial training
perhaps months or years earlier; add THAT to
the stress of a WORKING situation, like greetin
a guest and the dog CANNOT contain hisself.

At that, the so called professional trainer
responds with physical CON-TROLL which
likeWIZE INCREASES anxiHOWESNESS.

The entire time the guest is in the HOWES
his anxiHOWESNESS level continues to
rise until when the guest is leaving, the dog
makes an aggressive move, cause he's never
been PUNISHED for sayin GOODBYE to a
guest exiting as he has on their entrance.

That's been a curiHOWEsity to The Amazing

only a couple years ago that HE figgered THAT

INDEED. That's HOWE COME we don't
FEAR dangerHOWES behaviors, cause
all behaviors are the same same. Worryin
abHOWET innane BUNK like the FEAR
CARD when training risky behaviors causes
us to disregard the PROVEN EFFECTIVE
methods and cater to PARANOIA and "tailor"
force methods to suit the DOG or the problem,
thus avoiding addressing and trainscending
all behavior problems NEARLY INSTANTLY.

IOW, we NEVER tell the dog "NO!" or otherWIZE
EVER have ANY negative interaction whatsoever
OR YOU WILL SURELY FAIL to get 100% TOTAL
NON PHYSICAL CON-TROLL.

Simple, AIN'T IT, dog lovers.

> For example, to teach a dog not to forge

If the dog fails to return to heel, NO PROBLEMO!
We GIVE UP on the heel command and ask him
to come and PRAISE INSTANTLY and THEN we
can return to the original problem of breakin the
heel command.

SO CALLED professional trainers FEAR teachin
BAD BEAHVIORS by NOT CORRECTING the dog
for makin mistakes. That couldn't be further from
reality. Dogs DO NOT LEARN BAD BEHAVIORS
by being "allHOWED" to "get away" with doin a
"self rewarding" behavior, they LEARN BAD
BEHAVIORS when incomptent trainers FOCUS
on punishing avoiding bribing and offering alternate
incompatible behaviors and physically distracting
the dog, thereby disavailing themselves of training
opportunites.

DOGS DO NOT DO BAD BEHAVIORS.

And as for "self rewarding" behaviors, there
ain't NUTHIN MOORE REWARDING than
his handler's "GOOD BOY, NICE DOG, YOU'RE
A GOOOD FELLA." UNLESS OF CURSE, you're
in the HABIT of HURTIN your dog.

> Another example: if your dog strains upon his

That's HOWE COME pupperly handling the
lead EXXXACTLY as instructed, not using
a restrictive collar or harness and the Hot
& Cold Exercise are so important. It teaches
the dog to TRUST his handler and not fear
being jerked and choked and to pay attention
to the handler with WON eye and WON ear
at all times.

From there on HOWET, the rest of the
trainin is like shootin fish in a barrel or
The Amazing Puppy Wizard DISCREDITING
these lying dog abusing COWARDS and

Yeah, it amazes me how people don't seem to think about stuff like, "What if
the baby gets sick? Will we still be willing to give the dog what it needs
in life?" or, "Oh look, pregnant again--is this going to work well with the
other child and the dog or should we start doing some serious thinking now?"

It was amazing how many people in our lives seemed to assume we'd jsut
marginalize Saskia as soon as Walter was born, no matter how many times we
explained exactly why we were getting an 8 week old puppy while I was 8
weeks pregnant instead of 8 months or with a new baby, no matter how often
we demonstrated a strong working knowledge (even as first-time parents
ourselves) of raising dogs and kids together (a family without a dog is
somehow empty...), etc. People even tried to explain that it would be a lot
of work, as if we hadn't even paused to consider that before shelling out
950 Euros on a champion lines Dane puppy (some of the same people are now
shocked we've had her spayed--since her father is National Champion here
they just assumed we'd be breeding her "to sell the puppies"... and then for
some reason they forget to say that THAT would be a lot of work, seems they
think it's jsut fun and cuteness...).

People even tried to say that a much smaller dog would be less work...
Saskia needs a short Frisbee chase in the morning and a grand romp in the
field in the evening, and a bit of tug now and then between. She spends
nearly all her time blissfully asleep on the sofa already, and she's only
eight months old. Yeah, much more work than, say, a border collie (love
'em, but you do see my point, energy-level-wise).

But what all this said to me is that a huge number of people indeed do NOT
think! They just say, "Wow, cute dog, let's buy it like it was a toy and be
caught totally by surprise that it still has needs and wants to be part of
the family even after we have what we consider to be more important things
to think about". Sorry to rant, but I just get really worked up by people
who don't think before getting into something, especially when living,
thinking, emotional creatures are involved.

Koehler Method Of Dog Training
by Koehler, W R
Published by HOWELL BOOK HOUSE
(0876056575,

========================================================

Here's some quotes and some methods right outta your
koehler book professor "SCRUFF SHAKE and scream "NO!"
into its face for 5 seconds:"

"The Koehler Method of Dog Training (1962). New York:
Howell Book Book House(p. 52-53)."

Hanging

"First, the trainer makes certain that the collar and leash
are more than adequate for any jerk or strain that the
dog's most frantic actions could cause. Then he starts
to work the dog deliberately and fairly to the point where
the dog makes his grab. Before the teeth have reached
their target, the dog, weight permitting, is jerked from
the ground.

As in coping with some of the afore-mentioned problems
the dog is suspended in mid-air.

However, to let the biting dog recover his footing while
he still had the strength to renew the attack would be
cruelty. The only justifiable course is to hold him
suspended until he has neither the strength nor
inclination to renew the fight. When finally it is obvious
that he is physically incapable of expressing his
resentment and is lowered to the ground, he will
probably stagger loop-legged for a few steps,
vomit once or twice, and roll over on his side.

The sight of a dog lying, thick-tongued, on his side,
is not pleasant, but do not let it alarm you

THE REAL "HOOD"

"If your dog is a real "hood" who would regard the
foregoing types of protest as "kid stuff" and would
express his resentment of your efforts by biting,
your problem is difficult -- and pressing.

"Professional trainers often get these extreme problems.
Nearly always the "protest biter" is the handiwork of a
person who, by avoiding situations that the dog might
resent, has nurtured the seeds of rebellion and then
cultivated the resultant growth with under correction.

When these people reap their inevitable and oftentimes
painful harvest, they are ready to avail themselves of "the
cruel trainer" whose advice they may have once rejected
because it was incompatible with the sugary droolings of
mealy-mouthed columnists, breed-ring biddies, and dog
psychologists who, by the broken skins and broken hearts
their misinformation causes, can be proven guilty of the
greatest act of cruelty to animals since the dawn of time.

"With more genuine compassion for the biting dog than
would ever be demonstrated by those who are "too kind"
to make a correction and certainly with more disregard for
his safety, the professional trainer morally feels obligated
to perform a "major operation."

"Since we are presently concerned with the dog that bites
in resentment of the demands of training, we will set our
example in that situation. (In a later chapter we will deal
with the with the much easier problem of the dog that bites
someone other than his master."

I have been running a Chihuahua rescue here in Michigan for the past 17
years and at no time are there a bunch of Chihuahuas in the local
shelters...and as luck would have it when one does come in there are
long lists of people waiting to adopt.I have gotten only 3 Chihuahuas
from the shelters in a 150 mile area in the past year.Yes rescues do
ask more for their dogs but as you pointed out all medical is done.
Our rescue asks 200.00 per dog....and we never never never had a puppy
in rescue...that is just a fantast people have...I know tons of other
breed-rescues and none ever have pups.
The youngest dogs we have are just under a year old.
The biggest problem is housebreaking...Chi's who were not trained will
have a hard time adjusting,it takes us months and months to train a dog
and then in some cases they can never be trained....(thank God for the
carpet washer)
I think asking 150.00 for the dog is fine but I'd advertise on sites
like 57dogs.com or qualitydogs.com
I do believe this person meant well in trying to sell/place her dog and
I don't think there is a single person in this world who is so-perfect
to cast stones at this girl for posting.
We should be gently advising her to other places to advertise or sugest
rescues but attacking someone because you don't agree with their
posting is impolite.
To the person who posted if you do need help finding a rescue to take
your dog(remember rescues do not pay for dogs) I would be happy to
point you to rescues in your state, My email is
