Can you believe it?! So I'm looking up things that I'm going to need before I bring home my new puppy and I just happened to fall upon this website. All seemed well until I read the section about nighttime. "...put a towel over the front of the crate so the puppy can't see you, clap your hands and firmly say NO! If he still insists on crying, than take a heavy object (hammer, club, baseball bat, combat boot or my personal favorite a cast iron skillet) and slam the top of the cage with it and firmly say NO!! This loud noise and vibration will instill the word "NO" into your puppy's memory..." Is it just me, or does this seem TERRIBLE!!! That isn't training your puppy, its scaring it to death! :eek: :mad: |
:eek: :thumbdown I cringed just reading that! I barely say "no" to mine!!!! (in a normal voice!) LOL |

uggghh! that sounds horrible!! I agree maybe when trying to get them to stop some things with the banging of a metal spoon on a pan once or twive to get their attention. But that sounds horrid. I feel for their puppies :( |
OMG! that is terrible!!!--- Belle cried the first nite... then after that she didn't...and now she sleeps on the bed with me :cool: |
pups And people wonder why their new puppy is afraid of thunder, the vaccum or any loud noises..! |

wow .. i put a towel over the crate... but all that i have read says not to respond to crying ... kinda like a baby.. i cant imagine doing something like that.. how sad . poor baby |
Oh wow! I just kept reading to see what else this person had to say and they said to make sure you have a flyswatter with you at all times to hit the puppy with it if he is doing something wrong! This person claims to be a renowned breeder?!? |
How awful! Would you mind posting the link to the website? I may just have to send them a note! |

I wouldn't do that to ANY Animal!!! thats just being Aweful!! but wut really sadins me is people who don't know any better.. and sadly enough there are people out there... Will and prob have been doing it... Poor baby!! |
There's a good way to have a dog that's petrified for life with some serious behavioral issues....:mad: :thumbdown "Use a flyswatter on the dog..." What is wrong with these people!? I got a place in mind for their flyswatters! |

:cry: How horrible:mad: |
Ugggg this upsets me to say the least, Can you just imagain how scared that babie would be:( I never even did the towel thing, all mine are crate trained and very well to, They only wimper for a night or 2, Id like to bang something over that persons head:mad: |
It's people like that, that don't deserve dogs, I would hit her with that fly swatter, smack that head for even coming up with the S*@t she did (sry that site just made me SICK:( ) |

I heard that what you can do is bang on the wall on the other side of the room or squirt them with a water bottle, without them seeing you. That's still pretty sad. I tried to do that with my kitty cat so she wouldn't keep scratching at the door trying to come in (the water thing) but then I just decided to let her upstairs. I gave in...so now she sleeps with me, but right she sleeps with my sisters, since I'm in another country. But hopefully I will be home next Friday. Yahhhh!:D |
:eek: :eek: That is horrible... I'll clap my hands to get Toby's attention but nothing that extreme .... can you say traumatized :thumbdown |
I hope you didn't hear that on hear. That's just plain cruelty. |
That's just sickening. Train your dog by scaring him and beating him...wow :mad: Whose all sending messages to this person? I think I want too! |
The way I taught Lacy not to whine in her crate was to bang on the top of it when she would start whining. I just banged the top of it with my hand though...it made a loud noise that she didn't like so she would stop crying. She quickly learned to be quiet in her crate. Banging on the top of the crate does NOT hurt them and isn't any different than using a can with coins in it to make a noise. I do NOT think it is necessary to use a heavy object to bang the top of a crate though...and definitely wrong to use a flyswatter to hit a dog |

Honestly, my first reaction was to laugh! Really, who in their right mind would even think of such a thing, except to get your goat. Do you think they actually ment it? |
OK, how many of us are contacting that breeder. I can't imagine the terror a poor little puppy would feel if his crate were hammered. God help the ones that have had to go through that already! |
