I am pleased to announce the founding of Every Chance Rescue. Not another charity you might say and you’d be right. Every Chance aims to do what it says in it’s title, give every dog, every chance. Countless dogs are needlessly put down because events out of their control have led them to bite or even just show verbal aggression. Many of these deaths could be [... continue reading 'Every Chance Rescue'] The good news is that the Welsh Assembly have banned Electric ShockCollars. The bad news is that it remains legal to buy sell and use them for the forseeable future until further legislation is enacted.The very bad news is that the UK Government is not following suit. I remember a certain Anthony (call me Tony. I’m just a regular guy) Blair promising ‘joined up government’ [... continue reading 'Electric Shock Collars Banned in Wales'] As you may have read in an earlier blog, a friend and colleague of mine Caroline Spencer have been supporting the rehabilitation of two dogs, Nowzad and Tali rescued by Royal Marine Sergeant ‘Penny’ Farthing from the abuse they were suffering in Afghanistan. They now live a life of luxury with Pen and his wife Lisa in the UK.

The [... continue reading 'How To Use A Shock Collar'] As promised by a dog owner and mentioned in an earlier post I was sent an electric shock collar which they had bought on advice to deal with a behavioural problem. It arrived with me earlier this week and as a result I am able to share the delights of this piece of equipment with you. Great news! We are making an early start. As I mentioned in my previous post my intention was to build towards 29th April 2007 The International Day of the Dog (IDOD) to encourage caring dog owners who have been badly advised to hand in the various cruel gadgets they been sold to deal with behavioural issues. As I’ve said so many times before THEY DON’T [... continue reading 'Progress on Cruel Training Aids!!'] Recently I did a consultation with a really nice family and their two dogs, one twelve months the other seven months. They were of good temperament and eager to please but very exuberant. They moved around the house like a tornado and climbed all over people, family and visitors alike. Common problems that can be dealt with in a stress free way using Amichien Bonding. [... continue reading 'Amnesty For Cruel ‘Training Aids’'] |
