Dogs

Cats are good, Dogs are better, Boobies are BEST! :drooling:


You see, Greg, when you yell at a dog, his tail will go between his legs and cover his genitals, his ears will go down. A dog is very easy to break, but cats make you work for their affection. They don't sell out the way dogs do. .. Jack Byrnes

This is rare...you've put me at a loss for words! :drooling:
 
I currently have 3 dogs and 6 cats. [I am limited to the number of dogs at three by city ordinances.] However, I have had many many more dogs and cats that heave since passed on. As far as training, I have never needed or desired to "break" a dog. In fact, in my almost 60 years, I do not recall ever using this form of discipline or training. All of them are well-trained by positive reinforcement. And, all of them are well-balanced and happy.
 
That was a quote from the movie
Meet The Parents

I do like dogs.. Shit, they love me, cause I am
just a good person and I guess they sense it
so I like to pet them and see their tails wag

What I don't like, is the fact that people who live in
one bedroom apartments will get a fuckin monster
dog locked in the house all day barking its ass off

I guess it's like the kid who runs around the store
screaming at the top of its lungs knocking shit
over, while the dirt-bag mother watches

Can't really blame the kid, but it's hard not to
wanna kill the little fooker.

I am more of a cat person though.
They smell better and don't beg

A cat can't bark when someone tries to
break in the house, though.

If I had a house, and the land I would have a dog, no doubt.
My girl loves dogs.. She likes cats now since she met me

There is this dog across the street.. It's my landlords
daughter's dog and it's a mix between a poodle and something else

O wait, maybe a Labadoodle.. That sound right?

About the cats vs. dogs. My dog is much more responsive, to me, then my cats ever were. Cats remind me of a woman having a perpetual 'period'. :D

van der Zee E, Zulch H, Mills D. Word Generalization by a Dog (Canis familiaris): Is Shape Important? PLoS ONE 2012;7(11):e49382. PLOS ONE: Word Generalization by a Dog (Canis familiaris): Is Shape Important?

We investigated the presence of a key feature of human word comprehension in a five year old Border Collie: the generalization of a word referring to an object to other objects of the same shape, also known as shape bias.

Our first experiment confirmed a solid history of word learning in the dog, thus making it possible for certain object features to have become central in his word comprehension. Using an experimental paradigm originally employed to establish shape bias in children and human adults we taught the dog arbitrary object names (e.g. dax) for novel objects. Two experiments showed that when briefly familiarized with word-object mappings the dog did not generalize object names to object shape but to object size. A fourth experiment showed that when familiarized with a word-object mapping for a longer period of time the dog tended to generalize the word to objects with the same texture.

These results show that the dog tested did not display human-like word comprehension, but word generalization and word reference development of a qualitatively different nature compared to humans.

We conclude that a shape bias for word generalization in humans is due to the distinct evolutionary history of the human sensory system for object identification and that more research is necessary to confirm qualitative differences in word generalization between humans and dogs.

LOL. I have 2 game bread pit bulls, but they cannot be together.

My female has only 2 speeds: Snuggle and War. She is not very athletic (as far as Pit Bulls go) is not a particularly hard biter. However she is not afraid of anything.

On the other hand, my male, his father was a Grand Champion (IE won 5 documented big money match winner) as was grandfather, and Rom mother (Rom =register of merit,....that means you gave birth to at least 3 champions). I do not approve of dog fighting, however the best dogs I have ever owned came from game bread lines. He is incredibly athletic and bites like an alligator. He is also 15 lbs heavier than my female. Fortunately, he is very laid back, and has never been aggressive w/ people or dogs. Having said that, he won't star a fight, but he will definitely finish one.

Several years ago I built what I thought was a bullet proof pen for my female, and I left my male on a tie out. My dogs are indoor dogs, but I try and give them plenty of time outside as well.

Somehow, my female chewed her way through the steel double re-inforced pen, and attacked my male. I was gone for an hour and a half, and came home to find them fighting. My female was definitely on the loosing end. It looked as if they had gone over a full hour.

I brought her in and stayed up w/ her all night and eventually got some fluids into her and she was OK. Here is the crazy part: As soon as she could walk, what did she do? She went after my male again.

She thinks she is the Queen of all thing 4 legged. I have to keep my dogs crated, and only 1 can be loose (either in the house or back yard) and then I rotate their outdoor/indoor time.

I also try and give them some petting time every day as well. My female is especially cuddly, and will always try to snuggle in as close as she can (IE get on my lap).
