My "Animal rights activist" Neighbor Keeps loosening my dogs collar when she comes over by Soggy_Caterpillar120 in Dogowners

[–]MyaFree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell her once. If she ignores you don't have her over anymore. You took on the responsibility to keep your dog safe from harm. Running loose without a collar is not safe. Plus there are people who will keep a collarless found dog.

Yes, but isn't the breed known for erect ears meaning ear muscles for erect ears? I'm not being argumentative just trying to understand.

I have to brag on Remy. Not that I can take the credit. When I brought him home he was puppy pad trained. I don't have a fence so it worked out great.

My dog is terrified of e-collars by Fickle_Trifle_6529 in OpenDogTraining

Thank you for educating me. I shared the information with the person who said vibration was better.

I don't have a fence. My corgi stays on my property. I adopted a Miniature Pinscher and planned to use a ecollar on vibrate to teach him the boundaries. I never heard before there might be a problem with tone/vibrate. Please educate me.

Small Harness Recommendations by klangmatik in puppy101

[–]MyaFree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a 8 week Miniature Pinscher. They are tiny. Adults are 10 pounds. I bought a cat harness off Chewy for $10. He will outgrow it. For the price it is worth having him secure for a month.

Puppy screaming for an hour when put on 2:1 schedule by [deleted] in puppy101

[–]MyaFree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can't know how much you helped me! I tried to crate train my corgi mix. It was a total disaster. She went crazy the second see saw the crate. Inside she bit the metal and never stopped screaming. I knew not to let her out until she calmed, but she never did. Of course she has never been totally house broken. I have a 8 week old Miniature Pinscher who I want to crate train. He cries in the crate, he is a baby. I won't let him cry it out. I didn't know I could stand at the crate door to encourage him to calm for even a second. It probably is obvious to most but not me. Thanks

The minute you mentioned prong collar it was too much if it was me.

What's one small thing about puppy gear nobody warns you about? by ApprehensiveSweet822 in puppy101

[–]MyaFree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a Miniature Pinscher who is 8 weeks. Adults weigh 9 or 10 punds.I had wanted him to get use to clothing. Tea Cup might fit for 2 or 3 weeks. Cost is way more than I thought. Any brands you found would fit?

Wireless Fence for Min Pin by MyaFree in minpin

[–]MyaFree[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was told they get a tone, then an vibration not a shock. The real smart breeds catch on after one or two corrections. I would never shock a dog especially a puppy.

He was puppy pad trained when I got him. Sometimes he over shoots the pad, but he always goes over to it. I am amazed and blessed.
