*The Guide elaborates on the techniques used on the show. The examples given in the **dogy.training** are helpful and some of the techniques suggested very useful. One such technique/tool suggested was the lure stick to encourage a small dog to keep up with the heel command. I have a small dog who lags behind smelling any and everything and find it hard to keep bending over while walking to his level. The lure stick is great also for another dogs focus and sprinting at anything that catches her eye. The stories about different dogs, their different temperaments, have been helpful, especially Lulu's: After reading about Lulu's challenges I felt relief concerning one of my rescues that I have had for 10 years. Over many years I have checked out many training books from the library, watched different shows, DVDS, bought training books, taken lessons and this book is the best by far! Kindness, patience and perseverance works.*

Petsmart more like pet abuse for money

The clothes for dogs in summer can overheat them

[idk]

I don't have a dog. Why am I here?

What about “How to keep your pet cool while traveling “.

[colleenwhite]

Don't put clothes on the dog in the summer it's to hot & you should always have a portable car battery charger incase your battery dies & it's 90 degrees outside you don't have to worry about you or your pooch getting heat stroke over heating waiting for AAA to come jump you. Plus traveling with cold packs, a foam cooler & plenty of water.

I went to petsmart today to pick up everything I will need for my new puppy. I was shocked by the prices and left with barely anything. A bottle of puppy shampoo, $15.95 at PS and the exact same bottle on Amazon for $9.95. I ended up buying some puppy pads, and a few clearance toys. That's it. Sat in the parking lot and ordered a crate, collar, leash, harness, shampoo, enzyme spray, etc. Almost everything I picked up, I could get online for a significantly cheaper amount. Also, they had very few shirts for xs male dogs, and almost every one they did have had something to do with beer or alcohol. My puppy will not be "my drinking buddy" so he's not going to wear anything like that. Even my 12 yr old daughter commented on how almost all the pet clothes had an alcohol theme. I'm not opposed to alcohol, but for dog clothes?

Maybe the crate should be used while driving on the highway & the harness for letting doggo chill while inside the car during a stop
