New Dog Training Website Provides a Wealth of Free Advice to Owners- Users ... - Emailwire (press release)


(EMAILWIRE.COM, July 12, 2011 ) Los Angeles, Ca -- TheDogTrainingClub.com recently launched its website to bring dog owners all of the information they need to make dog training and care easy. With hundreds of helpful tips and articles, the site covers a wide range of topics including: breed specific training techniques, dog problem-solvers, general training, house training and dog breed information.

In the breed specific training techniques section, dog owners can browse through an alphabetized list of dog breeds to learn the proper methods specific to their pet.

Suzanne Dale with TheDogTrainingClub.com says when training a dog it is important to take into account their breed as all dogs do not respond to the same things.

?Many people approach dog training in a generic way,? said Dale. ?They believe the same training techniques will work for any dog. This is not the case.? She adds, ?All breeds have different characteristics and personality traits so you need to adapt and change your training style and methods to match.?

TheDogTrainingClub.com aims to help owners with their dog issues in the dog problem-solvers section. Here, owners can read extensive articles regarding common problems when training their puppy. Dog training tips include: separation anxiety causes and solutions, how to stop dogs from jumping up, how to overcome chewing issues, ways to cut back on barking, as well as helpful hints on putting an end to biting.

Besides covering common dog problems, TheDogTrainingClub.com offers insight into a vast array of additional dog training questions in its general training section. Topics addressed in this section include: obedience training tips, dog tricks, dog agility, how to be more in tune with a dog?s emotions, common training mistakes and more. The site even provides information regarding dog food, grooming and health.

To get more specific, TheDogTrainingClub.com recognizes house training as an imperative part of owning a dog and focuses directly on topics relating to this in its house training section. Dog owners can learn about crate training, housebreaking dos and don?ts and more.

In addition to providing dog training online, the new site offers standard information about a range of dog breeds to help current and potential dog owners learn more about their new best friend. This data gives a snapshot about the breed; typical size, lifespan and breed-specific needs; a brief history of the breed; caring requirements; health information; and how to tell what breed is right for the owner.

Suzanne Dale points out that if a breed is not currently listed on the site, visitors should check back as the site is updated regularly.

The San Francisco SPCA has announced that it will offer free spay and neuter procedures for Chihuahuas and Chihuahua mixes for the entire month of May in an effort to curb overpopulation and abandonment of these adorable dogs.

To kick-off the month-long campaign, the SF SPCA is hosting, "The Whole Enchihuahua," for dogs of all breeds and sizes at Dolores Park on Sunday, May 1 from 1 to 4 pm. The SF SPCA will also continue the "Small Dog. Big Heart" campaign in May, which reduces the dog adoption fee to $100 for dogs under 20 pounds.

"Chihuahuas, unfortunately, are often victims of their own cuteness, leading many to buy a dog before they're necessarily ready to commit to proper animal care and training throughout the life of their pet, so the animals end up in shelters," said Dr. Jennifer Scarlett, DVM and Co-President of the SF SPCA. "Through 'The Whole Enchihuahua' campaign and our month-long promotion of free spay and neuter procedures, we are raising awareness of the importance of responsible pet guardianship."

"The Whole Enchihuahua" event will feature a number of fun activities, including:
A runway costume contest for dogs of all breeds and sizes from 2 to 3 pm. Participants will compete for prizes that include two round trip tickets on Virgin America, a two night stay at the Hotel Monaco and two tickets to Grub Crawl. Registration for the contest will occur at Dolores Park on the day of the event. $100 adoption fee special for dogs 20 lbs and under for dogs adopted from the SF SPCA. Along with a new best friend, each adoption includes a certificate for a Chipotle burrito. Additional dog adoptions from partner pet rescue organizations, including Animal Care and Control, Family Dog Rescue and Muttville. "Ask A Vet" session with Dr. Jeannette Goh, DVM and Director of the SF SPCA Spay/Neuter Clinic. Dog training advice from pet behavior expert Amy Kott. Delicious food from Off The Grid trucks and live mariachi music by Trio sol de America. A trivia prize wheel, face painting and much more.

The Chihuahua Meetup group of San Francisco will also participate in the event.

The Whole Enchihuahua is made possible thanks to the support of the following sponsors: 7x7, Off The Grid, San Francisco Recreation and Parks Department, Virgin America, BMW, KOIT, Kimpton Hotels, Grub Crawl, Chipotle and Trio Sol de America.
