Sam Small is a renowned Police dog trainer and life long dog lover that stumbled upon a new way to train dogs that’s both highly effective and humane. The problem, according to Small, is that many dogs will train themselves to bark at all the wrong times, as well as to continue barking even after you, the owner, have determined that the bark is unwarranted.

Dog Lover in Your DNA?
There may be a genetic explanation for why John Wick (played in the film series by Keanu Reeves) cared so much about his puppy that he embarked on a murderous rampage after a team of hit men killed the innocent pup.
OK, maybe not. But scientists did recently discover that people who love dogs may do so in part because of their DNA. Read more...

I have been following the Chinese Corona Virus called Covid-19 for some time now. It is, as you all know, a global pandemic and that the source of it, the Chinese Communist Government is not very forth coming as to it's origins or mutation. So was the media scares the population into accepting many changes to their liberties - we are on the verge of a socialist lock-down from which the USA will not recover without significant blood shed. Keep that in mind as you look at this website that chronicles the numbers. Note that there used to be three line on the bottom right.. China, Recovered, and others. China and recovered are gone - why is that? Here is the link.

Is the government trying to stop pet owners from feeding raw pet food?
It certainly looks like it. And Answers Pet Food is courageously tackling the issue … head-on. This is big news for dog owners.
It’s not just about Answers … it’s about your right to feed your pets a raw diet. Something health officials don’t want you to do.
The CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) actively discourages people from feeding raw pet foods. Their main concern is humans getting sick from bacteria in the foods.
Tell us what you think after reading the article.

Interesting. There are no reports of people or dogs getting sick from their products. Yet they are concerned and trying to force some regulation. On the other hand there has been numerous cases of dogs getting sick from contaminated kibble which pose the same potential of contamination and there’s no concerns with selling kibble.
Follow the money. Who stands to profit want to force raw food suppliers to comply.

You are so right. I think is funded by the giant companies that combine and extrude kibble, pretending it great for your dog. The spend millions on lobbying governments and earn billions in return. Yep. Follow the money trail.
Thanks for posting eliteguardianpresa

One of the most popular and numerous breeds on the planet, the German Shepherd Dog is the result of a dedicated effort to create a worker of unmatched resilience, train-ability, intelligence and versatility. The early ancestors of the GSD were developed from crosses between old Ryoden Wolfdogs, Altdeutsche Hutenhunds, Germanische Baerenhunds, Howavarts, Harz Foxdogs, Serbian Shumadiners, Karavlach Herders, Belgian and Dutch Shepherd Dogs, Karst Sheepdogs, Scottish Collies, Bohemian Shepherd Dogs, Tatras, Beaucerons, Great Pyrs and other European working breeds. These "aboriginal" herders of Germany came in a variety of types, from bearded and wirehaired to shortcoated and longhaired dogs of different colours, sizes and temperaments found in Bavaria, Thuringia, Swabia, Wurttemberg, Frankonia and elsewhere. Just as today, they were known as the Altdeutscher Schaeferhund breed.
Only a few of the variants were somewhat standardized, seeing how dogs were bred primarily for their working ability and not for looks. Two of these relatively established types were the smaller, short-haired, gray-colored Thuringian Wolfdog and the taller, long-coated, black Wurttemberg Sheepdog. Crosses between these and all the other types were common, but the dogs of Thuringia and Wurttemberg are believed to be the foundation for the Deutsche Schaeferhund breed.

I have a great friend who joined this site who is an expert on this breed. Just made this group to see if he wants to share some of that "know how" with us whom are not so knowledgeable about this awesome and often misunderstood breed.

Thanks for posting that article. It is probably the most thorough and comprehensive examination of the separation between working and show that I have ever read. As is so well documented, it is a problem that has been going on for a long time and is getting worse. The reasons for the divide are complex and numerous, made worse by the changes in attitudes of the general public towards the aggressive nature of "working dogs" as exemplified by the many rule changes that have been made in recent years to the working trials, including changing the names and terms used. It is partially for that reason, I believe, that the show line dogs have become softer and more like pets than police dogs. There simply is no benefit to do otherwise, as the vast majority of dogs bred for show go to pet homes anyway and the few that actually go on to have top level show careers don't receive any extra points or ranking for having a crowd pleasing courage test performance or high scores in their working trial book. The judges don't care so the breeders don't care either.

Unfortunately this has happened with many breeds. The
#Caucasian Ovcharka, Cane Corso,#Boerboel,#Kangal,#Neapolitan Mastiff to name a few. The urbanization of our society has definitely affected the need for the good working dogs.0 0 0 0 0 0 0
