A good training professional will be able to help you eliminate your dog’s urge to chew on your furniture, shoes, and other valuable items.&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;This will also reduce your stress and anxieties aimed at your dog, and provide a healthier atmosphere for you and your dog.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;End Neighbor Complaints&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Are you tired of your neighbor’s complaining about your dog?&lt;span style=""&gt;

 &lt;/span&gt;While a dog can suffer from disease or accident, often health issues focus around lack of proper diet.&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Using a professional dog behavior program helps you learn the best diet for your type of dog.&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Many behavioral problems are also caused by improper diet.&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Not too mention the mental health of your dog as he/she feels secure in their environment without having to be defensive.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Improve Your Dog's Mental Health&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Does your dog have anxiety problems?&lt;span style=""&gt;

There is hope! There are plenty of methods you can use to control or eliminate these bad behavioral issues.  Here are 7 tips you can use to help make your dog your best friend again.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Give Your Dog Plenty of Attention&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Make sure your dog is getting enough attention.&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;One of the main reasons for behavioral problems in most pets is lack of attention from the owner.&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;From being home alone for long periods of time to inattention while you are home, these problems can be ways to get attention.&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;If your dog is only used to being fed and taken outside (if it is an indoor dog), your pet needs more attention.&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Giving plenty of attention to your dog will help alleviate some of his/her anxiety  or boredom which is a common reason for dogs to misbehave.&lt;span style=""&gt;   &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;Give Your Dog A Proper Diet&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;Ensuring your dog has a proper diet&lt;/span&gt; can have a huge impact on their behavior.  This can range from whether your dog is not getting enough food to overfeeding your dog.&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;The right foods can also make a difference in their behavior.&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Most popular cheap name brands that we see in grocery stores and chain stores are made from sugar and can make your dog hyper just as sugar filled foods can make children hyperactive.  Giving your dog a healthy naturally made dog food can really make a difference in whether or not they misbehave.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;Provide Appropriate Space&lt;/b&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Do you have a large dog or a small dog?&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;How big is their kennel?&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;How big is their outdoor pen?&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;If you have too small of an area for the type of dog it can build up anxiety and frustration which leads to behavior problems.  Creat&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;Acceptable Toys&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Does your dog have “toys” besides your shoes that give them the opportunity to stimulate their minds?&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;As with not getting enough personal attention, your dog needs to be able to stimulate his/her mind during times of boredom in order to keep them from wandering over to your favorite antique chair or shoes and making them their new favorite chew toy.  If you have a large dog and give him a small dog toy, he will "enjoy" the small toy quickly and move on to bigger and better prizes such as your prized possessions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Enough Exercise&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Does your dog get enough exercise&lt;span style=""&gt;?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;Do you take your dog for walks on a regular basis?&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Do you play with your dog?&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;These things are very important for the overall health of your dog, not to mention, they relieve stress.&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Imagine yourself being pent up all day and not being able to get rid of that extra energy.&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;You would probably be pretty anxious, I know I would.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Socializing With Your Dog&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Do you know your dog's trigger signs for behavior problems?&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Get to learn your dog’s triggers.&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Just like a child, your pet has things that entice it to lash out, whether it be barking, biting, or chewing.&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;If you can figure those trigger points out, you can really reduce your dog’s bad habits.&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;In order to figure your dog out, you have to spend time with them which as we’ve already discussed can help them deal with their loneliness.&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Be in Charge&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Are you in control?&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Do you have control of the dog or does the dog have control of you?&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Dogs just like people can tend to want to be in control.&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;I’m not talking about controlling your dog to the point of abuse.&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Besides the unethical and unlawful nature of that kind of control, abuse is not necessary to control your dog.&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Firmness is what is needed.&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;If your dog knows you are not firm, you need to be firm until the dog realizes you mean business.&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;The dog will test you just as children test parents.&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;These are just a few of the ways you can really make a difference in your dog's behavior problems.  Seeing how if you've gotten this far, you bought your pet with pleasure, entertainment, and friendship in mind why not give these things a try.  I think you'll enjoy having your best friend back again! &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3010345639559782053-5623319980676315419?l=atdogbehaviortraining.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='related' href='http://atdogbehaviortraining.blogspot.com/' title='7 Tips to Make Your Uncontrollable Dog Enjoyable Again'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://atdogbehaviortraining.blogspot.com/feeds/5623319980676315419/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3010345639559782053&amp;postID=5623319980676315419&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3010345639559782053/posts/default/5623319980676315419'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3010345639559782053/posts/default/5623319980676315419'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://atdogbehaviortraining.blogspot.com/2008/05/7-tips-to-make-your-uncontrollable-dog.html' title='7 Tips to Make Your Uncontrollable Dog Enjoyable Again'/><author><name>Andie Thomas</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03052352924917667129</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
