[Nomad]

Did you all see what the Dog Whisperer, Cesar Milan wrote in Parade Magazine today (Sun./Jan. 11th)?

Some items...
Live in the moment....don't look back...don't worry about the future.
Nurture a balanced life...exercise, discipline and affection daily.
Trust your instincts...pay attention to non verbal cues.
Be direct and consistent in your communication..enforce rules consistently, be clear and consistent in your communication. We teach people how to treat us.
Learn to listen...make the time to lend an ear to those you love or for those who want to transform their lives. Don't try to fix their problems.
Don't hold grudges...try to resolve the problem at hand and move forward quickly.
Live with purpose...don't get bored...contribute...we have an inborn need to work/contribute.
Celebrate every day...rejoice in life's simplest moments. Enjoy and celebrate life's gifts.

This guy is WONDERFUL!

If only my difficult child could hear a whisper when he's raging,,,,,,SIGH,,,,,,

Thanks for posting this though- I guess I should pay more attention to what my dogs already know!!

And SPEAKING of dogs....

Believe it, or don't -- when I got married, my MOTHER gave me a book on DOG TRAINING, with the brief yet crystal clear message that the techniques therein were also adaptable for HUSBANDS.



Yeah, some men are dogs, and some are just trained that way.
