just had to ask something here...if i did roll her a couple times thinking it would help and then realized that she just didn't look right when i did it and stopped, will that still scar her for life, she's only 8 weeks old, will she be ok now since i quit doing it only did i maybe 3 times total and not for very long....oooopppsss....
also, the presence that chachi talks about is called "calm-assertivness" it's a Ceasar thing, it's about maintaining a calm even temper but still maintaining that presence and that control as a leader, a fair and loving leader, but you don't take any crap either, you are in control of all things, food, toys, and playtime, when you say a command the dog listens because you have that confidence as a leader, never train when angry, upset, or frustrated because you have lost that calm-assertiveness and you have lost leadership mood. the dogs know when you are in the right mood to lead and when you are crumbling with your own stress and problems. they need a confident, calm-assertive leader like Ceasar or Victoria act in their shows. a dog won't nip Victoria and she said its' because she gives a leading vibe off to dogs and they don't dare cross her. |
