Dresaj canin – Preluarea Controlului

V-ati uitat vreodata la niste dresori de caini? Fiecare dintre ei
ARE  un stil diferit de dresaj si diferite tehnici, dar toti au un
singur lucru in comun. Acela este atitudinea de SEF sau Caine Alfa.
Toti cainii li se supun. Toti SEFII vorbesc pe un ton prin care le
spune " Eu sunt seful aici".

Le da oridine cainilor ce sa faca si
nu le cere incuvintarea sau instiintarea. Alpha este doar o
atitudine. Toti dresorii de caini stiu acest lucru si daca se va
intampla vreodata sa-ti dresezi cainele, trebuie sa adopti si sa
perfectionezi atitudinea Alpha. Asta nu presupune ca prietenului
tau patruped sa ii fie frica de tine, ci doar sa te respecte.

Este mult mai simplu si convenabil sa convingi un catelus ca tu
esti seful din prima zi, decat sa fii temator cu un caine care deja
si-a "impus" sefia si care trebuie sa il dresezi din nou.

Stabilirea sefiei tale la un catelus este chiar foarte
simpla.(IMPUNEREA AUTORITATII ASUPRA UNUI CATELUS..poate ) Pozitia
pe spate cu labele in aer, este ultima postura prin care semnifica
supunerea. Uita-te la o catea, cum face cu catelusii ei. Cand un
catelus nu se comporta "frumos" sau  nu asculta  mama imediat il ia
si-l intoarce pe spate si il lasa asa.
Cand noul catelus nu "asculta" comanda,  intoarceti-l pur si simplu
pe spate si tineti-l pentru un minut. Nu trebuie sa-l loviti saU sa
tipati la el.  Ceea ce inteleg canii cel mai bine este limbajul
trupului. Cand il intoarceti pe spate, ii demonstrati ca dvs
dominati sau ca sunteti seful. Va "puneti" ca sef , in ceea ce
catelusul crede ca este o "haita".

Probabil ati vazut si la cainii bagabonti..( ;))...SE SCRIE
VAGABONZI

Cand doi caini straini se intalnesc deseori vezi pozita
stand-pe-spate, dar s-ar putea de asemenea sa vezi si alte posturi
prin care indica supunerea, prin care unul dintre caini il
recunoate pe celalalt ca "seful".

Retrogradarea "sefiei" unui caine
care si-a asumat-o  intr-o familie, este mult mai grea decat s-o
dobandeasca. Asta nu inseamna ca nu si-o poate "retrage", dar
necesita asistenta profesionala si reglarea atitudinii din partea
fiecarui membru al familie.

CAND DOI CAINI STRAINI SE INTALNESC DESEORI II VEZI ASEZANDU-SE PE
SPATE DAR SI ALTE POSTURI CARE INDICA SUPUNEREA. DECI UNUL DINTRE
CAINI IL RECUNOASTE PE CELALALT CA FIIND SEF.  RETROGADAREA SEFIEI
PE CARE SI-A ASUMAT-O INTR-O FAMILIE ESTE MULT MAI GREA DECAT SA O
DOBANDEASCA. CEEA CE NU INSEAMNA CA NU SI-O POATE RETRAGE. Este
necesara insa asistenta profesionala si reglarea (moderarea?
)atitudinii fiecarui membru al familiei.

[ PHOTO ] Incredible Muscular Dog — Wendy

Maybe they should call her a whoppet - after all, she's a whopper of a whippet.

This is Wendy, the dog whose appearance is a long way from the usual long, 

lean and sleek look of her breed. 

Beware: Wendy on the prowl

She was born with a genetic defect which has left her looking like the Incredible Hulk of Hounds.

While her head, heart, lungs and legs are the size of those of a normal whippet, her gene defect means she is "double muscled".

She weighs 4st4lb - twice as much as she should - and has bulging neck muscles, burly shoulders and haunches like a baboon. And unlike ordinary whippets known for their lithe and narrow frame, this four-year-old pedigree doesn't just have a sixpack stomach, she has a 24-pack.

The Incredible Hulk: The dog made of muscle

Sadly, her mixed-up genes mean she may have a shorter life expectancy than most breeds.

But while she may look oddly menacing, her doting owner Ingrid Hansen claims the giant pooch likes nothing better than clambering up on to your lap to have her back scratched.

"People have referred to her as Arnold Schwarzenegger," she said.

"She's healthy and happy. That's all that counts.

"She doesn't know she's got a genetic defect. She might give you a nasty lick, that's all."

Huge Wendy towers over a regular whippet

The whippet, who lives on a farm in Victoria, Canada, has been the subject of an American genetics study. Although the dogs are customarily bred for hunting, racing and showing, Wendy enjoys a slower pace of life.

She spends her days prowling around the fields, chasing other dogs and horses and sleeping on her owner's bed.

This week the Daily Mail reported on another canine phenomenon, 19st10lb Samson.

A cross between a Great Dane and a Newfoundland, the dog from Boston, Lincolnshire, is 37in at the shoulder and stands 6ft5in on his hind legs.

[ PHOTO ] Mummified Remains of 2000 Year Old Egyptian Cat

The Mystery of a mummified Egyptian cat left languishing in a Roseland attic has been partly solved.

Robert Gray, from Portscatho, inherited the remarkable object from his father, renowned Egyptologist Peter Gray, who died in 1984. Mr Gray never knew what the arcane package might contain, as many mummified cats were sold by disreputable traders in the ancient world with nothing but rags inside. However, X-rays carried out at a Truro veterinary surgery have clearly shown the figure of a cat that has been preserved for more than 2,000 years. 

Mr Gray said: "My father acquired the cat in the 1970s as a token of thanks from a museum.

"It's been in the loft in Portscatho, where my father had a house; it's been languishing there for 50 years."

Mr Gray said he had always been unsure whether the mummy bundle actually contained a cat: "You went to the mummifiers and said you wanted to send goodwill to the afterlife and some naughty mummifiers would take your money and stuff a bunch of rags inside."

Mr Gray met Jane Marley, from the Royal Cornwall Museum, to open the X-rays, taken at Clifton Villa Vets.

Mr Gray said: "History was made today. I felt quite emotional when I opened it up. It's something that has lived with me for most of my life and it's revealed itself today."

The X-ray showed the cat's neck was intact, he said, which suggested the cat was a prized pet rather than deliberately killed as a sacrifice to the gods.

Mrs Marley, curator of archaeology and world culture at the museum, said: "It was very exciting to see the X-ray. It's a lovely face and the wrapping is very good – it's been very well kept."

Mr Gray's father also played a part in the story of the 2,500-year-old mummy of Iset Tayef Nakht, kept out of sight in storage at the Royal Cornwall Museum until Dr Gray inquired about it in the 1960s.

It is now the River Street museum's most popular exhibit.

The moment of revelation was filmed by the Cornwall Channel. The programmes are broadcast on Monday at 9pm on Sky channel 212 or Freesat 401. Via — Link
