GARYSWORLD THEORY ON GETTING A PUPPY
**********************************
OK LETS GET STARTED...YOU WANT A PUPPY...WHAT DO YOU LOOK FOR...ALL PEOPLE ARE DIFFERENT AND SO ARE PUPPIES...FIRST OF ALL LOOK FOR WHAT YOU WANT NOT WHAT SOMEONE MIGHT TELL YOU...SOME THINGS I LOOK FOR ARE... ...AN ENERGETIC BRIGHT EYED DOG ...A PUPPY THAT COMES TO ME WHEN I CALL IT SHOWING LITTLE FEAR (ALTHOUGH I HAVE BEEN KNOWN TO TAKE A SHY DOG IF THEY SHOW ANY SIGNS OF BEING FRIENDLY) ...WHERE I GET THE PUP FROM IS IMPORTANT TO ME SO I WOULD TELL YOU ALWAYS TRY AND CHECK OUT THE PLACE YOU ARE GETTING THE PUP FROM ...OF COURSE IF YOU WANT PAPERS WITH THE DOG YOU MUST BE PREPARED TO RESEARCH THE PEDIGREE AS THOROUGHLY AS YOU CAN...TO DO THIS YOU COULD ASK OTHERS WHO MIGHT HAVE BOUGHT A DOG THERE OR CHECK WITH AKC REGISTRATION ...OF ONE THING I AM CERTAIN ABOUT WHEN I GET A PUP...ITS NOT THE AMOUNT OF MONEY I MIGHT PAY OR THE PAPERS...ITS MY GUT FEELING ABOUT THAT PUP AFTER OBSERVING IT...OF COURSE IF YOU ORDER THE PUP YOU CAN ONLY HOPE ITS WHAT YOU WANT...SOME OF THE BEST DOGS IVE OWNED WERE THOSE THAT WERE GIVEN TO ME OR THAT I PAID A NOMINAL AMOUNT OF MONEY FOR... THESE ARE JUST SOME GENERAL THINGS THAT I HOPE WILL HELP YOU DECIDE ON WHAT TO DO...REMEMBER GARYSWORLD IS HERE TO HELP...I AM HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE ON ANY TOPIC I DISCUSS...IF I DONT KNOW THE ANSWER I WILL CERTAINLY TELL YOU...AND WHAT WORKS FOR GARYSWORLD MAY NOT ALWAYS WORK FOR YOU...
***************************************************
GARYSWORLD THEORY ON STARTING A PUPPY
************************************
YOU NOW HAVE YOUR NEW PUPPY...SO WHAT DO YOU DO NEXT...WELL THE OBVIOUS THINGS FOOD, WATER, SHELTER, SHOTS, AND OTHERS YOU PROBABLY KNOW ALREADY...IF NOT ASK...AND MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THEM CHECKED REGULARLY BY A VET... LET'S TALK ABOUT GETTING YOUR PUPPY STARTED ON TRAINING...HOW SOON SHOULD YOU START TRAINING IS SOMETIMES A BIG SUBJECT...SO I WILL TELL YOU WHEN I START...USE IT AS A GUIDELINE... EVERY DOG I GET MY TRAINING STARTS THE FIRST DAY UNLESS THE DOG GETS SICK FROM ITS TRIP TO ITS NEW HOME...OF COURSE IF ITS FROM MY STOCK THERES NO PROBLEM...THE SOONER YOU GET TO KNOW YOUR DOG THE BETTER...IF YOU HAVE TO KEEP THE DOG IN SOMEONE ELSES KENNEL IT BECOMES A LITTLE MORE TRICKY SOMETIMES IF THEY HELP TAKE CARE OF IT...THE BETTER YOUR YOUNG DOG GETS TO KNOW YOU THE BETTER FOR YOU... I TRY AND TAKE YOUNG DOGS OUT FOR SHORT WALKS EVERY CHANCE I GET...THEY LOVE IT FOR ONE THING AND THEY GET USED TO BEING WITH YOU OUTDOORS...IN THIS SECTION I ONLY WANT TO DISCUSS WHAT I DO THE FIRST FEW WEEKS...I GET TO KNOW MY PUP FIRST...THAT MEANS THEY NEED TO EXPLORE AND I NEED TO OBSERVE WHAT THEY ARE DOING...I DONT USE HARDLY ANY COMMANDS IN THE FIRST FEW WEEKS...THE BASIC ONES ARE (LET'S GO) AND (HERE WITH THEIR NAME)...THIS LET'S THEM KNOW WHERE I AM AND MY VOICE ...I NEVER YELL AT A PUP...EVERYTHING IS IN A SOFT VOICE BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO STARTLE THEM..TOO MANY PEOPLE WANT INSTANT OBEYANCE FROM A DOG...IF A DOG MAKES A MISTAKE YOU CAN EVENTUALLY CORRECT IT...IF YOU MAKE A MISTAKE WITH THAT DOG YOU HAVE TO START OVER...JUST ALWYS REMEMBER EVERY ONE OF US ARE DIFFERENT AND SO ARE DOGS...THATS WHY IT IS SO IMPORTANT TO GET TO KNOW THAT DOG'S HABITS BEFORE FORMAL TRAINING BEGINS...I HAVE SEEN SO MANY DOGS RUINED IN THE FIRST FEW WEEKS BECAUSE THE OWNER PUSHED THE DOG TOO HARD TRYING TO MAKE THEM DO WHAT THEY WEREN'T READY TO DO...ESPECIALLY BIRD DOGS...IN MY OPINION IT IS JUST NOT A WISE THING TO DO... IF YOU DO THESE SIMPLE THINGS IN THE FIRST FEW WEEKS YOU STAND A GOOD CHANCE OF MAKING THAT PUPPY YOUR FRIEND FOR LIFE AND A PUPPY THAT WANTS TO BE WITH YOU NOT JUST ANYONE WHO HAPPENS TO BE AROUND... IN MY NEXT ARTICLE I WILL DISCUSS MY THEORY ON WHEN TO START A PUPPY ON FORMAL TRAINING...GOOD LUCK WITH YOURS...
