Raising the Rufus: July 26, 2009
THIS IS AWESOME!
My favorite dog trainer and dog whisperer of all time has just released a free video online explaining how to eliminate 94% of all unwanted behavior in ANY dog.
Her name is Krista Cantrell and I absolutely LOVE the way she teaches.

To give Rufus more of a “mission” on our daily walks, we picked up his first piece of adventure gear: a backpack.
At the moment, it only carries two of his toys and some poop-scooping bags (don’t tell him that’s all, though). As he gets older - and the weather a bit cooler - he’ll be able to start carrying around his own water bottle, and maybe some treats for when we take a break. ‘Till then, I think I’ll be doing most of the heavy lifting.
Oh, and about the “moose” comment: since we’re supposed to be traveling together, I tell Rufus that when he wanders too far or gets too spastic, we’ll be eaten by the wild moose wandering the tundrid plains (of Dallas, TX). So far, his husky instincts have been deaf to my protestations.

I think given the choice, he’d opt to take a bag of treats, another bag of treats, an aluminum can to crush (he loves the noise it makes), and one of our cats. And a shoe. And another bag of treats, just in case mom and dad are eaten by moose, and he has to fend for himself.
