Petsmart is a very nice, large, clean store with a lot of variety and I actually do buy dogfood there--blue buffalo. However it really burns my butt :x to overpay for dog paraphenalia--toys, balls, leashes, etc. Petco is equally as bad in pricing if not more. Victoria is plugging Animal Planet toys ...

Ok now I do remember that Victoria handfed the lab, which did slow him down a little. Recently I seen a dog bowl that supposedly helps turbo eaters to slow down. It is a round dish with a big bump in the middle, similiar to a bundt cake pan. The dog just has the narrow sides around the bump in which...

Personally I feel clickers are unnecessary and that praise, a pat on the head, mini belly rub, toy or treat sufficiently marks the desired behavi...

DEAR VICTORIA RE: PETSMART PLUG

Dear Victoria: I see that you do reply to posts from time to time. I can only hope you will reply to this sometime in the not too distant future. Why are you now plugging Petsmart on IMOTD? They seriously overcharge for their products. One ex: A box of Iams dog biscuits cost $2.25 at a nearby discou...

"PLACE" TRAINING

Hello All: I am a newbie here. I have seen Victoria do "place" training just a few times and I can't remember the exact sequence of executing the command. Do I lure dog with a treat, or guide him by collar/leash? When do I treat, when all 4s are on the place or after he lays down? Do I giv...
