eliminate any allergic responses from your
critter. The CONCEPT of an ELIMINATION
diet and following it PRECISELY till ALL the
potential allergens are ELIMINATED and then
REINTRODUCED to OBSERVE a response, is
the beast way to ELIMINATE allergic responses.

Both my dogs at some stage have***ed a spot somewhere on their bodies
and I have always
managed to train them to stop.
In all cases there was nothing wrong that
***ing would have helped (Roz has had cut
pads, stitches in her belly and skin irritations,
all tempting her to***), none of their***ing
has been due to any allergies.
When I see the dog***ing more than normal
I look at the spot to see whats there and decide
if a vet appointment is needed or to wait and
see, keeping a close eye.
To stop the***ing I distract the dog and give it
some friendly banter, when it starts***ing again
I repeat, usually after about 4 times the dog stops,
for the moment at least, if it starts again then repeat,
before long the dog has no more desire to*** that
spot at all.

The same thing worked with my lab***ing/
chewing problem too. He had an itch due to
blocked ***glands and started chewing and
***ing his tail at the root.
After the glands were squeezed, and the itch
was gone he still wouldn't stop. (because the
place he chewed raw was itching).
After some training (roughly the same
methode as yours) he stopped.

at the root (Vet said his ***gland was blocked, and
was causing an itch).
After squeezing it, he still wouldn't stop biting his
tail. The vet advised a neck-funnel (don't know wat
you US-guy's call those) so he couldn't reach his butt.
I hate those things, i think they will drive a dog nuts.
I tried the wits end method. (difficult to read
such a long textfile if English is not your native
language) Luckily this is without all the "HOWE's"
etc.so at least it's readable for somebody like me.
The minute he started to bite i trew my key's
next to him on the floor, and praised him (he
stopped biting and looked up when he heard
the sound) I did this 7 times,
after that the tailbiting completely stopped.
Just give the wits end method a try.

For a fact i tought him to heel in 15min's without
beeing on a leach at-all !!! When he spotted a dog,
he used to run towards it, but now i tought him to "ask
permission" first, and to my surprise it worked!
My dogs never went to puppy-training (lucky for
them), maybe this helped too.

Subject: Doggy advice
Scott, Jerry Howe forwarded me the letter below.
I'm glad that you referred negatively to Jerry's
habit of CAPITALIZING and HOWEING everything.
I personally hate this habit of his. I think it is his
way of diluting his authority - IME he is a very modest
fellow. However, contrary to your sneer, he is very
competent at living with dogs.
I thought I'd list a series of actions which I found
on the list, folk asking advice on what to do about
dogs doing this and that, for example:
whining,
humping, hunching,
pacing,
self *** - paw***ing, side sucking,
spinning,
prolonged barking, barking at shadows,
overstimulated barking,
fighting, bullying other dogs,
compulsive digging,
compulsive scratching,
compulsive chewing,
frantic behavior,
chasing light, chasing shadow,
stealing food,
digging in garbage can,
loosing house (toilet) training.
inappropriate fearfulness
aggression.
The thing that is fascinating to me, as an ethologist who
graduated from college 50 years ago and has spent all of
the intervening time working with animals (including the
human animal), is that you never see any of these behaviors in wild dingoes,
jackals, coyotes or wolves,
you don't even see these behaviors in hyenas (who
aren't dog related).
You see these behaviors in human managed animals, especially animals who
live with neurotic hysterical humans.
As Sam Corson (Pavlov's last student) demonstrated for
nearly 50 years at Ohio University (Oxford, O.) there
is no treatment more useful for dogs than tender loving
care.
