Dogs Attacking Coyote in Fox Pen

Posted on 27 December 2010 by trickac

Coyote being attacked by multiple dogs at the Countyline Fox Pen in Holt, Florida. This video was taken on 12/23/2008 and demonstrates the animal abuse that occurs inside of these fenced enclosures. What you cannot see is that the coyote moved along the fence line and was attacked by even more dogs. The hunter at the end could not get the dogs to release from the attack in the woods. The video also demonstrates the panic and horror the adjoining neighbors endured time and time again.

Group 5 – .22′s Blazing away at Prairie Dogs – Eastern Montana Varmint Hunt

Posted on 11 December 2010 by trickac

This group used a lot of .22 shells (about 500 per day each). Occasionally you’ll hear a .223 or .22-250 reach out and poke a prairie dog. We managed to find some unwary groups of dogs that allowed multiple shots at less than 100 yards. You’ll see these guys weren’t shy about using ammo to shoot .22′s at 100-200 yards.

Today I talk about 3 major types of calls that are used in Predator hunting. First is the Closed Reed Call witch is very easy to master. Second is the Open reed call it’ll take some practice but you’ll get it. Thrid is the Diaphragm it could kill you if used wrong. but it makes the best howls. Next week I’ll be talking about coyote vocalizations.

Eastern Coyote Hunting: Rick and Andy call in FOUR dogs and miss

Posted on 30 November 2010 by trickac

At the start of a blizzard, Rick calls in 4 coyotes with Andy and misses one sitting there at 200 yards. I guess he can’t hit them all. After some amazing shots this year, he missed this cake shot at the end. With a full audience! FOUR coyotes in frame.

The Domestication Of Dogs And Their Training

Posted on 29 October 2010 by trickac

The Domestication Of Dogs And Their Training

The domestic dog that we know today is thought to be most likely derived from wild dogs such as the wolf, jackal and the coyote. Out of these three wild dogs the wolf is the more social one and thus it is most likely that they had the most influence on the ancestry of the pet dog of today. They are likely to have been cross bred with other species of wild dogs. The association between domestic dogs and humans is thought to date between 12-15,000 years ago and in fact were the first species of animal to be domesticated. Taming wolfs would have been difficult but some wolfs would have been easier to tame than others – many would have been tamed through a gradual selection – by selecting different breeds of wolfs that were more tolerant than others or wolf pups may have been taken from the den and tamed. The main reason why dogs were tamed and trained in the first place was because when the first communities started to settle they found dogs useful for hunting reasons.

This explains a lot about the behaviour of the domestic dog today and can explain some of their behavioural problems but most importantly it can help solve some of these behavioural problems. Dog trainers who are qualified and worth their salt know everything there is to know about the history and instincts of dogs so if you have a dog who seems impossible to train and is displaying signs of behavioural problems you should seek professional help.

When to Use a Dog Muzzle – Why Do Dogs Nip and Bite

Posted on 27 October 2010 by trickac

When to Use a Dog Muzzle – Why Do Dogs Nip and Bite

Sometimes you have tried everything. From clicker training, to professional dog trainers, nothing will keep your dog from biting and nipping. It may be time to try the muzzle. A muzzle, either a wire basket or a fabric strap, will keep your dog from opening his mouth all the way, and could be your only way of curbing your dog’s biting habit. Used properly, it can be a great training tool. Used improperly, a dog owner with little patience may turn to a muzzle because they can’t be bothered to train their dog well.

Dog training is a necessary part of dog ownership, and one that is often neglected, at least in part, by dog owners. Training can be arduous, and it can take weeks for a dog to learn not to behave in a certain way or how to do a certain task, and many owners, especially those with busy lives and full time jobs, will leave the training until too late, or sometimes lose patience.

Nipping is an instinctive dog behavior, therefore you can almost expect a new pup to nip. Although it is an instinctive behavior, it does not mean that it is an acceptable form of behavior. It is not difficult to train a dog not to nip and bite.

Firstly, let’s understand where dogs pick up their instinctive nipping and biting behaviors.

While there are canines of many species, from coyotes, wolves to dingos and dogs, all canines have certain traits in common. When you relate your dog to the canine family, you should also know that domestic dogs are the offsprings of only one direct ancestor – the gray wolf. Over the years, these “gray wolves” have slowly been bred for various tasks, be it the speed and agility of hunting, the powerful nose of a tracking dog, the strength of a fighting or guard dog, or simply for the soft and cuddly pleasure of companionship.

Wolves have a pack structure that relies on dominance, and while dogs have been bred to be submissive, to look at you as boss and leader, this innate need for hierarchy and leadership remains. Because the wolf pack structure is part of their living in the wild, wolves always test each other to make sure the leaders are the most powerful among them. This is done by play.

Wolves, dogs, and every canine in between, love to play. It is common to see dogs chase and wrestle one another in the dog park. Dog owners are usually very worried when they see their dogs wrestling and putting their mouths on each others neck, however these behaviors are very common when dogs are playing. Nevertheless, this play has undertones of dominance. In the wild, while having a great time together, two wolves would be testing each other while they play-fought, trying to ascertain whether or not the other animal was stronger.

Dogs do the same thing. When a dog is wrestled onto its back or flops over in front of another, it is in a submissive position, meaning that the other dog is the “top dog”. Since this is how dogs are used to playing, inevitably, your dog will play with you in this way. While this is a great way to bond with your dog, the nipping behavior can worry your neighbors and worse, call the police on you.

Training a dog not to nip should be a simple task. It is vital for you to understand that if you do not want your dog to nip, you should not encourage it. One of the most common ways to stop this behavior is to cry out loud when your dog puts his mouth on you. Reward him when he removes his mouth.

If your dog is very persistent, a muzzle may be an effective way to curb the behavior. You should not use a muzzle as a form of punishment. Make sure your dog is comfortable around the muzzle first. Lay it out and allow him to sniff it, and get used to it. Later, try touching it on your dogs face. Finally, put it on your dog and remove it soon after, slowly working the amount of time it is on your dog’s snout up until he is comfortable wearing it for an extended period of time.

You must remember that having a muzzle on your dog will restrict his ability to eat, drink and pant properly. You should not muzzle your dog for long period of time.

When toilet training your puppy, take note that she is not able to control her bladder overnight before she reaches four months old. To learn more about canine health care and canine dog supplies, visit us at CanineTouch.com.

Shih Tzu – For The Love Of Dogs

Posted on 25 October 2010 by trickac

Shih Tzu – For The Love Of Dogs

I have wondered just who are the ancestors of the shih tzu. Like all other dog breeds, shih tzu ancestors most likely come from five choices: Grey Wolf, Golden Jackal, Coyote, African Wild Dog. It is hard to imagine our little shih tzu baby dolls has any of these wild characters in their background. According to researchers, all canines have their roots in one of these five categories. I don’t think I could ever be in love with a real live wolf or a coyote. A coyote makes those strange sounding “howls.” I have some shih tzu that have a howl sound rather than a bark.

Out of the five groups, wolves and dogs share 71 of 90 charted behavioral patterns, more than any other two canid species. My thinking is then probably most breeds as we know them today have the wolf as its ancestor. The fact that the shih tzu has ancestors in the wolf family, however, does not thrill me in the least. I cannot imagine sharing my bed with a real live wolf. The shih tzu faces are so sweet and innocent. A lot of my shih tzu look like chinese men and women in the face. They do not seem like even “dogs” to me.

The Egyptians had a real talent for taming animals and kept a variety of pets. They probably receive the most credit for the domestication of the cat, but there were dogs in the Egyptians’ homes as well. We can imagine this because of the many canines that prance across egyptian tomb paintings. Some of those canines have been identified as greyhounds, salukis, pharoah hounds and Ibizan hounds. I have to admit the only one in this group I recognize is the “greyhound.” Our shih tzu was not in this group at all it seems. However, less frequently, were paintings of small, short-legged dogs, (not our shih tzu) in domestic settings. They could have been the watchdogs for the Egyptians or just simply pets.

The Romans were crazy about dogs and seemed to realize they could choose dogs to mate based on appearance or behavior and develop specific abilities. They had guard dogs and dogs who fought in battles. They had a variety of house dogs including one that most likely was of the Maltese type.

The Chinese emperors were quite fond of pets. Their puppies had human nurses and their adult dogs had human servants. The Pekingese exists as a breed at least from the period of A.D. 700. They were developed to resemble the spirit lion to ward off evil and bring good luck. The chin were sometimes called “sleeve dogs.” There are ancient imperial dog cemeteries scattered about Beijing in China. Pekingese dogs were very often entombed with their emperors. The thing that really amazes me is how the faces of some our shih tzu look like the faces of chinese men and women. How did the Chinese accomplish that?

During the 14th Century the Chinese began to recognize the dog’s many functions such as being able to lead the blind.

Henry III of France was noted to have kept at least 2,000 lap dogs, who lived in luxury. Louis XIV spent 200,000 gold francs for the construction of the royal kennels at Versailles where he kenneled hunting hounds, truffle terriers and toy poodles. Tsuanayoshi of Japan nearly plunged Japan into bankruptcy to feed his 100,000 dogs. Connie Limon (writer of this article) built her shih tzu a cabin costing around ,000 and she may be plunged into bankruptcy to feed her dogs……and the list just goes on and on and on. What people will do “for the love of dogs” is estounding. It is a bond that sometimes transcends the bond even between humans.
