7.01 We&#039;re Back! 

We had more thoughts about food in training! Specifically, what constitutes a bribe?

6.03 The Myth of Food in Training - Part 2

Dr. Dunbar's iWOOFs Radio covering a wide variety of topics, including: Pet Dog Training; The Birth of Puppy Training; Behavior Problems or Normal Behavior?; Errorless Housetraining &amp; Chewtoy Training, Home Alone!; Socialization for Dogs &amp;Their Owners; Come Here!; Hyperdog!; Pulling On-Leash; Dog Fears &amp; Quarrels; Choosing &amp; Adopting an Adult Dog; Fun &amp; Games; and Animal Behavior in the Home &amp; Office.

They are speaking so rapidly that I thought it was a foreign language at first. Almost like listening to Alvin and the Chipmunks! Please put your speed to a normal pace! It’s too annoying to listen to an auctioneer teach me dog behavior! Thanks, as the content seems interesting. 
BTW there’s no way the obscure combinations of words could all be used as nicknames. I will just write some letters.

Myth of Intent

When it comes to dogs I have found that Dr. Dunbar is unparalleled in his knowledge. iWoofs has helped me understand my dogs more than I did before.

5.01 Puppy Husbandry Practices

5.03 Deprivation in Dog Training

This highly devoted owner has a huge Newfoundland that they’ve been working hard to train all through puppyhood.  Now that adolescence has hit though, the owners are having new problems with controlling their dog’s attention and aggression.  As an un-neutered male dog he is the target of additional hostile attention from other dogs.  With such a powerful dog it’s incredibly important to get things under control as quickly as possible.  Fortunately Kelly &amp; Jamie have some easy tips for dealing with the difficulties of adolescence, testicles included.  A rock-solid sit, with eye-contact on cue, will mean your dog is always under control, and unlikely to provoke an aggressive response.  Add in plenty of classical conditioning and your dog can be calm and collected in any situation.Super-Sit: http://dogstardaily.com/training/ultra-super-sit

Many veterinarians are sufficiently concerned about the risk posed by canine parvovirus that they advise dog owners to keep their puppies at home until their vaccinations are complete. This poses some serious limitations for socializing your puppy.

4.07 Boulder Dog at SBDTwF

Last week we found ourselves in the position of being able to put the SIRIUS Puppy Raising Initiative into practice.  It turns out that one of Jamie's friend's father had bred a litter of German Shepherd Puppies.  Unfortunately, he'd done so quite a while ago and the pups were already nine weeks old by the time we learned about them and no one had given him BEFORE or AFTER You Get Your Puppy.  While his heart was in the right place, he didn't have all the information he needed to help the pups be their very best selves. However, young pups are super-malleable and puppy training and socialization is what we're all about. We offered to help and he was very enthusiastic, so we got to work.  First we helped him set up the housetraining program and address some important socialization issues in their home, then we took all the pups to our SIRIUS training facility in El Cerrito to work on some training and socialization outside the home, which we filmed.

4.08 German Shepherd Litter

A listener has a sweet three-your old Rottweiler that likes to mouth people.  He’s never hurt people, but the owner recognizes that this is a potential problem.  With a large, potentially intimidating dog like a Rottweiler it’s a particular pressing problem, because people may be very scared.

4.10 Dealing with a Mouthy Rottweiler

In this iWoofs episode we address an article that appears on The Kennel Club website, by Robert Alleyne, a Board member of the Kennel Club Accreditation Scheme for Instructors.  As major advocates for puppy classes you can probably imagine that we have a few bones to pick with t

4.11 Ian&#039;s Fun &amp; Games Training Workshops

Shirley in New Jersey has a problem with her dog being reactive when off-leash, jumping her fence and chasing down bikers and joggers. She’s tried setting up training scenarios, but the dog doesn’t seem to react when it’s on-leash, so how should she address the problem?

5.08 Over the Top Dog Aggression

5.05 What is Socialization?

When it comes to dogs, people say and do a lot of silly things. Sometimes they record those things and publish them on the internet. Today we're looking at just two examples of this sort of behavior.

5.04 It Came from the Internet

Our perception of dog aggression is easily distorted by fear. That’s why it’s important to evaluate "dog bites" by an objective measure. The Bite Scale provides a consistent way of looking at a dog’s history of aggression by measuring the amount of injury that was inflicted.

4.03 John Rogerson &amp; The Mongrel Dog

Many dogs end up in shelters because of relatively minor behavior problems.  Unfortunately, most dogs then become less adoptable the longer they spend in a shelter, because whatever housetraining or socialization they do have begins to deteriorate.  But it doesn’t have to be that way.  In this ep
