I believe I had one of the earliest Kais in this country as I chanced to rescue a dog in the early 90's that eventually turned out to be a Kai. He was one of the stocky types and may have been sent out into the world as a non favored type for breedi…

I watched a youtube video of 2 kai ken dogs (in Japan) agressive to each other and the owners put muzzles on both dogs and then took them out to run with them...at first it looked bad but after a while the dogs were running side by side and eventual…

Hi, I have a very unsocialble Kai. He is now 4 years old and just starting to be ok in social situations tho if we go downtown for a walk he still is pretty stressed. I accept that he is hard wired this way but you have to have a LOT of patience and…

This is my second kai and I live alone. Neither dog had any experience with kids so my first dog turned out he was aggressive with anyone that moved into his face and unfortunately kids are about face high to the dog and he did bite one kid and once…

Yes, my Genji is a vigorous blanket baller upper! And the Kai I had before was a big time pillow fluffer...I love it; hysterical!
-
Yes, I did. What do you want to know?

Well, I have now done a bunch of research and money spending on the GPS systems. Most people leaning to the tagg system. I read a lot of reviews that were not put out by tagg at how unhappy people were with it, not locating. So anyway I went with po…

That picture of him in action is wonderful! I heard shibas are too independent to take direction...NOT. Love to watch him go. We started baby agaility and will go back in the fall...love it!

My Kai ken, genji, I guess almost bit the dust when he was neutered. The vet said if ever he has anesthesia again to let the doctor know he's very sensitive. Maybe the Japanese breeds are super sensitive.

I'm on harness number 2 for Genji. He inherited the last one from my last dog and he decided to chew it off himself. I got a little heavier one but I only clip onto it if I'm not expecting other distractions or dogs. Otherwize I'm using a pronged co…

A tv show is not the best way to train dogs but for the vast majority of dog owners it might be the only training they will ever get. So it would be really nice and good for a lot of dogs and their owners if there was someone out there doing a good …

I'm looking at LoveMyPets GPS which must be a satellite. It you cannot get a read on your lost pet you call them and they can do it for you. I don't have an iphone or android and it's my understanding you need that to follow them on your phone or el…

I don't know. but I wouldn't do this. Strangest thing I've ever seen. I'm thinking there are too many dogs piled together looking worried. I don't see abusive here but what does it look like before they are all lined up. Have you seen what comes be…

My step daughter has this problem with her Kai. We haven't tried putting them in the house together yet but she said she'd have to clear out all the dogs personal stuff before trying it. Neither of my dogs seems to be possive of toys. Too much fun.
-
I'm thinking these uncomfrotable positions are arranged on purpose so that all of the dogs become equal...like a neutral territory. It is odd looking. I've never seen a training like that. As for prong collars. I don't use them in agilty where they…
-
What I'd like to know is will the tracker work if you are traveling? The most risky time is when I'm driving to a new area and I worry someone will bolt from the car. and also I have a place up north. there are places that don't get cell phone recep…

That video is excellent, I agree. It's the exact problem that I get with Molly on a walk. I haven't had an opportunity very often to possess her attention when a strange dog is crossing our path but it's what I try to do and have had some success bu…
-
Those are good ideas. I haven't tried covering the crate. And taking a friend to attend to Molly while working with the other dog is a good idea too and I think I know just the person. Thanks As to Brads question about how do I come in or leave...…
-
I just am not communicating my meaning to you, Shibamistress. I have not said you should harm a dog dogs in training. No. You have said you think CM is harming. And I never said I had ANY experience with collars; I'm not recommending them. You are p…
-
I never choose punishment over reward. 95% reward - rarely, negative which would not hurt. Kicking in the nuts would not be on my list. It would be a jerk on the leash or a poke, it would be something to redirect; the rattle cans, good idea. I sti…
-
Oh, and brad asked about leaving. I don't have a problem leaving them alone in the house...surprisingly even the puppy, genji is already fine being left alone not in a crate. I don't say anything I just leave. It's the crate problem tho. He's was b…
-
Ok, to fill in the blanks. Molly isn't a puppy, she's 6 and is crate trained and is fine in them. But I really don't need them for her anymore. But this was an odd situation where I had back to back agility classes, first with my puppy and second cl…
-
Good idea. I think barking problems are so common and annoying to neighbors that don't have dogs that people want to just do something drastic. There are the Ecollars. I have never tried them. But dogs are smart and figure out ways around. Nothing h…

I'm not really talking about my own dogs. As you guys are describing all the positive ways to train...that's what I do too. My dogs are the most pampered and never tormented in any way. I've been to dog training and agility classes for years. i have…

People on this site are avid dog people; either breeders or own these special breeds. We are talking about miliions of people out there that have dogs. They have no special knowledge about animal behavior and they are just wanting a nice dog to live…
-
Ok, so how do you stop a problem dog that is in the process of attacking another dog or person. Personally I have come close to having to deal with this and it can mean death to another dog or another person if you cannot make or divert the dog from…
-
Basically I like Ceasar. Don't all jump on me. If people who watch him don't get it right whose fault is that? I don't have his channel but I've seen lots of them and have never seen anything abusive. That said, there just is no replacing common se…

Genji is now 9 months old. When I first got him home he devoured food and was screaming, and I mean screaming for more food! I was giving 1/2 cup 3 times a day. I couldn't eat a sandwich without him trying to get at whatever food was around. And he …
