Jean, really impressive, you never stop! Only cuz I'm currently working with a Golden who's really reactive (mostly just overly-excitable to an extreme), how about (when on-leash) pulling/lunging after moving objects: cars, bikes, skateboards, people, birds (you get the idea).

Birds are almost the hardest (right now) - doggone things, keep landing/swooping/flying near us. :ROFLMAO: She melts down - and I'm really starting to cringe at the sight of a bird! :LOL: *sigh*

Was thinking the other day, when you started DTA, did you ever think it would get this big? (y)

That's a funny story. When I started the site was extremely basic. All there was on the website was some pictures that I took of myself training my dogs to do tricks. People loved the idea and wanted more, so I recorded some videos. Then the forum was created and here we are. :)

No I had no idea people would like the idea. For me, I just wanted to help, and honestly I am just grateful to do it. It's fun and I enjoy doing it.

That is an awesome and extensive list!!!

Just one thing stood out; so I thought I would mention it.

I have always considered growling not a problem itself; but the sign of another problem. In other words growling is the warning that a bite is coming so you never want to extinguish the growling because then you have no warning. Rather you want to identify the source of/ what is causing the growling and address that issue. I'm thinking that's what you mean and "growling" is "short hand". :cool:
