    No name, however, I can recommend an EXCELLENT book on training your new puppy. The Art of Raising a Puppy by The Monks of New Skete is a fabulous resource of information on puppy training. I highly recommend it.

    I used the techniques in the book to train our German Shepherd you see below when he was a puppy. He's now 6 or 7 years old, I forget.. but he listens REALLY well. I've even stopped him, mid stride, from taking off after a rabbit just by commanding him with my voice.

    Oops.. that picture shows up WAY to large... To see it, go here.

    Half the fun of getting a new pet is picking out a name. Not that im accusing you but isnt it more fun, not to mention personal, to name it yourself?

    Anyways, im partial to real names. I hate when people name their dog or cat something stupid like Fluffy, Oreo, Brownie... whatever.

    Should have got a cat. Dogs are stupid creatures that wouldn't even exist if they hadn't been inbred from wolves.

    Insecure people buy dogs so they can feel special and important.

    As Oscar Wilde said "To every dog, his master is Napoleon. Hence the constant popularity of dogs".

    You call dogs stupid, yet you suggest a CAT? An animal that knows little more than to sleep and eat? Dogs live to please their master its true, but a cat is a useless creature that does little more than cover your furniture with hair.

    Yes, but cats haven't evolved artifically and if left to their own devices they will forget you in a heartbeat.

    Some people prefer a pet that can't possibly survive without them and some people prefer a pet that can survive using its own instinct. Dogs are so instinctively lost they crap in the street without a second thought and can't even look after their own personal hygiene. Cats, on the other hand, will clean themselves regularly and will always bury their fecal matter rather than subject small children to diseases by unloading in the street.

    Different pets for different types of people I guess.

    Recommend you have the animal for a few days before coming up with a name.  It can be a very difficult choice, but sometimes the pet's personality will help make it easier for you to decide.

    Cats chase "imaginary" things in order to keep their instincts in check.

    If you're gonna tell me cats act like they're on acid, please explain how a dog chasing its tail for half an hour is perfectly normal behavior.

    And while you're busy dismantling my argument, please point out why cats instinctively bury their fecal matter and tend to their own hygiene while dogs are unable to do either.

    My dogs never chase their tails, and one of my dogs, Josie, has the cleanest toenails I have ever seen on a dog.  They are spotless and she cleans them often.  She also cleans herself regularly.

    LOL. So the fact that "your" dogs don't chase their tails means that the argument that dogs pointlessly chase their tails is moot? Thanks for the laugh. And the fact that your dog picks her nails means she has an instinctive personal hygiene program? Hilarious.

    "Imaginary things"? So you're telling me that cats preparing themselves for a scuffle with a bird or another animal proves that they act like they're on LSD?

    So when an army platoon does the same thing by carrying out exercises and pretending to engage the enemy, are they acting like they're on LSD too?

    You weren't "stating facts", you were stating opinions.

    Mybe it is "hillarious" but sterotyping dogs into your categories is wrong and I proved it.  Sure, many dogs don't clean themselves regularly, but stating all dogs don't is clearly wrong.

    I have a cat and a dog.

     

    I don't know about you guys but my cat is almost like a woman.....mehimage

    Sometimes my cat get to effectuate. Sometimes when im in bed she sits on top of me and stretch her arms over my neck and start licking my chin.

    I don't know much about cats, but I wish cats would speak more than "purr"

     

    I like my dog more than my cat though.image
