andyfriends and giomanach,
The most powerful of these is knowledge,Dog education is the key! participate in training, watch education DVD, read books and magazines, enjoy- training with your dog and then dog will say "please and Thanks you"
pee and poop in its cage? it might hard for clean up,it dirty and bad smell. I dont think it is good idea. Maybe is space concern or other else. Remember your dog is buddy always.

erm, dogs cant eat chocolate. i found 1 link about that here.. google it for more articles about it.

my dog so likes chocolate..
he will wake up once smell the chocolate when i eat.;..

Dogs smell abilities is many times more than humans, so waking up to food is normal. If you want your dog to die, feed it more chocolate. Google for more info.

chocolate will definately cost your dog's life if u feed it..
a lot of dog owners like to think "ohhh he is begging so cute n so pity, haiyas nvm la jus a lil bit ma nvm de la...gv lo jus gv lo...!!"

but as a matter of fact is choclate contains a compound that attack your dogs immune system...so your dog more prone to so many other diseases....later all tick fever, distemper all come then your dog will die a very painful death...

Is that right? But then again, casper is in short coat so it is fine for him.

Fur dry or skin dry? I have not heard such a thing as fur dry. The skin will lose its oilyness if showered one too many times. In the west, most dogs are only given shower when they are really dirty. We Asians are the only ones who shower our dogs so regularly.

Short or long coat does not make a difference. It is the skin. The poster above has posted wrongly stating it's the fur.

Close, wrong post

huh..
meaning??
it is got another thread??

Hi all,

Thanks a lot to all those who contributed to this forum. Just bought a 2-months old aussie silky terrier, and had been reading this forum for the basic training. Now my dear pup can poo and pee by itself on the newspaper, so happy! It used to pee and poo everywhere over the house and never listen. And now it learnt the command "NO" as well. Hehe..but still unsure whether it really knows its own name..Keke. This is my cute litte April, so cute hor...:
