For those who do not know Deanne Braye, she is a deaf actress that played Sue Thomas on the program Sue Thomas FBEye who also had a hearing dog. I don't know if a hearing dog will be used in Heroes or not, there is no mentioning but it appears that they are going to support deaf actors this...

Hope it helps! I had to sensitize Jessie to the sound first (by c/t for listening, then reacting-looking at the sound) before I moved on to the alert behavior and then combining the sound with the alert behavior. She is not a dog I would have picked as an actual hearing alert dog-too laid...

One Way Alert video now complete! Have a look!

All of my dogs habve been allowed/encouraged to sleep on the bed. Our GRs chose not to because it was too warm for them, but our short-coated dogs all loved it, some even sleeping under the covers. My daxie I had as a teen used to burrow down uner the covers and sleep at my feet until she got...

I'd highly recommned a free onloine train site called Training levesl. It teaches you to train your dog step by step. Levels.html By level 3, he'll be a great house dog, by level 5, you'll be able to figure how to teach anything! Just doing 10 minutes once or twice a day! I used it...

Just like having a baby, you need to plan for a dog. If you've never had one, most training facilities will not give you one as the biggest issue they find is once they get them, people who have not had a dog before don't want it because it is a lot of work-think having a baby in the house that...

I wonder if they've considered retraining the dog? Get a clicker and start clikc and treating for calm behavior (and keep the dog on a leash as they train).

I have just posted a couple of posts on training one way sound alert (there is a sound you need to attend to!) and two way sound alerts (there is a sound and follow me to the source!) on my 'how to' blog (top link below).

I have just posted a couple of posts on training one way sound alert (there is a sound you need to attend to!) and two way sound alerts (there is a sound and follow me to the source!) on my 'how to' blog (top link below). Have a look and see if it might help you train your dog! A CC video...

You might be okay then in approaching your building manager/owner and asking what they require in the way of allowing a companion dog. Get it in writing. If the building chances owners/managers you want proof that you are allowed. Also, in case they change their policy down the road, you will...

A dog can only be used as a service dog for only one person officially, although it may serve more than one person in the household. However, it is very hard on a dog to alert for two or more people. By law, they only have to accept a dog that IS a service dog. It is up to the owners...

In Canada, there are many more regulations than the US. Check out my blog, post number 4 for the list of things an owner-trained dog needs to be certified in BC. The province of BC regulates certification.

Yesterday I was contacted by another training organization that might help you. I think she said she was out of Burnaby but serves the Lower Mainland. West Coast Assistance Teams 604 293-1211.

Back in the 1970's, we had a basset. She was a doll! My sister's girl guide leaders bred her and my dad brought her home (without my mom's knowledge as he had habit to do with dogs). She was a great family dog: very tolerant and very long so counch have many hands on her at once! LOL! Loved to...

My dog is a demo dog to help me teach other people to train their own service dogs! She is just now learning to do 2 way sound alerts. She is a miniature pinscher/cattle dog mix. You can see Jessie on my how to videos!

You could also select and train your own! I am about half way through training Jessie to do a 2 way sound alert. Soon, I'll be putting together a video to help you train this task. Check out our how to blog! We are in BC!

Brayden's Mom, we know nagging doesn't work. Have you read "Don't Shoot the Dog" by Karen Pryor? It will teach you how to positively reinforce any tiny step in the right direction to get hubby moving! Also works with kids and other animals like dogs etc. My hubby brags he didn't come out of...

How many days was Gabby missing before she was adopted out? Each shelter has a different number of days they hold the aniamls before adopting them out (some 72 hours, some 7 days etc). If they waited the required number, sadly, the dog legally belongs to the new owners. However, that doesn't...

I understand that it aired on Animal Planet first. They cancelled it after 3 seasons because they felt its drama format didn't fit their network. (I am guessing not enough focus on the dog's role).
