Pay attention to your Yorkies whiskers!

Recently I have started to learn how to trim my Yorkies face. Whenever I was getting close to my dog's face, she was becoming apparently very nervous. So I decided to read more and i found out about the special role of whiskers psychology.today.com Dogs have a set of stiff hairs protruding from the sides of their muzzles that are popularly called "whiskers." These are not at all like the nonfunctional whiskers that men sometimes grow on their faces and they are technically called vibrissae.

Travelling - with a dog by plane - my holiday begins

Finally it is Saturday, I am thrilled cause today my small holiday begins. Today I will take a plane to Pisa, Italy.

My clicker for dog training

My clicker has finally arrived in the post, below some pictures, this is how a clicker looks like:-) it is small and you use it by simply pressing it. This is used to train dogs by positive reinforcement (some psychology :-) B. F. Skinner (March 20, 1904 – August 18, 1990) was an American psychologist, behaviorist, author, inventor, and social philosopher and he first described this type of conditioning (source Wikipedia) . Ok, but now leaving psychology apart, how to use it? The website Wiki-How will tell us http://www.wikihow.com/Clicker-Train-Your-Dog on this website you will find training instructions with some pictures. Training your dog can be fun! It takes some effort for sure, but if you hope that your dog's manners will improve without your effort, then you are not correct.
