Dog Crate Training – The Quick & Stress Free Way
The imperative rule to remember when dog crate training is under no circumstances whatsoever allow your dog to view the crate as punishment, they should never feel that they have been banished to their dog crate. Dogs need the crate to feel welcoming, to be a place of safety, their own little haven.
Dog crate training is generally easier with a puppy as they have no bad experiences to recall when you are enticing them into the crate. Adult dogs can be trickier, especially rescue dogs as you may not possess a lot of knowledge pertaining to the dog's history. For all you are aware the dog may have been traumatised during its past by being forced into a crate, or confined to a restricted area & abandoned.
Without intending to you could be asking your dog to relive a nightmare, this is where the magic word in dog training comes in "patience". You have to be respectful of your dog at all times & be tuned into their way of thinking. You will become accustomed to the signs they display when they are becoming agitated, sad, happy or playful - be sure to watch your dog closely.
When dog crate training, either a puppy or an adult dog, the method is very similar. Initially just simply place the dog crate on the floor, preferably in the location that it is to remain. Pop a lovely, cosy dog cushion inside & an item of your clothing. All dogs love to snuggle up with something soft with their owner's scent on. Along with these items also place one of the dog's favourite toys inside the dog crate. Then leave the door open & walk away.
Allow your dog the opportunity to explore the dog crate on its own with no pressure from anybody, pay no attention to the dog crate yourself, pretend it is not even there. This way your dog is not sensing any negative thoughts from you regarding the dog crate; it is so insignificant to you that you have not even noticed it.
Leave the dog crate like this for several days. Eventually your dog will give into its curiosity & feel compelled to investigate, when he/she does praise them & offer them a small reward. The first time your dog feels safe enough to enter the dog crate is an important step forward in the dog crate training regime.Therefore you really need to encourage the dog through praise & attempt to persuade them to possibly sit inside the dog crate, even just for a second. If they complete this task then really accentuate your pleasure with them.
By leaving your dog to its own devices it does not feel forced & will view the dog crate as simply a place to sleep. Dogs are fastidious creatures by nature & so will very rarely relieve themselves in their sleeping area.
If you wish to have the door closed eventually, perhaps overnight if you are potty training a puppy, then incorporate this into your dog crate training gradually by pushing the door further & further shut a bit at a time.
Do not alarm your dog to the fact that you are shutting the door just casually push it closed a tiny bit further each evening. When you have achieved actually closing the door always ensure you are present for the first several times as your dog may awaken & go into a panic if it cannot exit the dog crate.
Above all else, always be mindful of the golden rule never make the dog crate a place of punishment for your dog. The process of dog crate training need not be stressful for you or your dog, the calmer the approach that you adopt the better for both you & your canine friend.

I recommend you show hands on potty training on a “new” pet. One, this will provide for some interesting filming/editing- the unpredictable, the raw. And Two, you clearly have the answers, it’s just a mouthful in this vid.
Not sure what kind of show you're talking about here.
If you're talking about showing, as in confirmation showing, there are no tricks to be preformed. Basically, your dog needs to learn to stand still, be comfortable with being handled and poked by a complete stranger, quiet, collected, and walk nicely on leash. These things can be learned at handling classes usually done by a local AKC training club, and most of them are "drop-in" (meaning you don't have to sign up-you just, well, drop in) and cost about ten bucks. It might also be a good idea to enroll in a canine good citizen class as well-great for teaching good manners. A bit more expensive though, and usually runs for a number of weeks.
But maybe you're talking about a fun show type thing? We have one in my area every summer to benefit the local shelter-dogs are entered into competitions for five dollars, and there is one for "best trick" which owners will teach their dog some 'unique' or unusual trick to preform, and a panel of three judges watches and judge the dogs to pick what they thought was the best. If that's the case, you could pretty much teach your dog to do anything-be creative. I've seen dogs that know how to wave, bow, dance, and do all sorts of unique tricks and preformances at these silly shoes. The sky's the limit, just be creative.

No, but i beleive in miracles.
In skincare patience is a virtue that pays off handsomely. 6 months as a minimum. Follow regime religiously & results will astound you
Being "on-call for your patients" (note the spelling) means you have to be available to serve the patient's needs. You don't have to be at the office or the hospital necessarily, but you need to be able to pretty much drop what you're doing and go there if you need it.
Usually, medical professionals are only on-call a few days a week.
As for working hours for a cosmetic surgeon? The profession is highly scheduled, there's not too much call for emergency cosmetic surgery, so probably fairly regular office hours, 9-5 style.
Oh I’m sorry you failed to understand what I said. I do know the differences my dear. You see you would if you ever took any classes on genealogy. Where as one would study how traits and genes are passed on through out family lines. Where mutations and genetics make up it’s core. I am saying that if you wish to make an argument do not simply use the most basic examples. Mendel simply scratched the surface of inheritance, and is by no means an expert.
This worked for me…I had a crate in the bedroom and one in the living room. I only used the one in the living room if I was busy doing something and couldn't keep my eyes on her. I never fed her in the crate, but I did put a pillow and a blanket in the crate and hide pieces of treats everywhere or I would smear a little bit of peanut butter on a toy. That way she wanted to go in the crate and I didn't have to force her. I always put her in the crate at night while I slept until she was older and she started sleeping in bed with me. Good luck with your new puppy.
