acorntoy.jpg
Treat your super cool pet to a new fall toy. This durable rubber Acorn Dog Toy is one tough nut to crack. It combines two activities doggies love best--eating and chasing after something that moves. The colorful Acorn contains a treats compartment for fun and effective training.

Thumbnail image for dog_tags_chewyshoe.jpg This Acorn Dog Toy is from the folks who brought us the Chewy Shoe Dog Toy, Vibram K9. They support Dog Tags: "Service Dogs for Those Who've Served Us" and have donated, along with their retail partners, $72,000 to the Puppies Behind Bars program that provides inmate-trained service dogs to injured United States veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan. They continue to donate $2 from the sale of each Chewy Shoe in red, white and blue.

JetCare Anti-Bark Water Spray Collar

wagandbarkjetspray.jpg

If you would like to improve your pet's behavior without using shock or citronella spray collars, this new (to the US and Canada) cold air spray anti-bark training collar should cause no pain or distress.

When your dog misbehaves, the cold air spray in the anti-bark spray collar is directed towards the neck, to surprise your dog. The goal is to interrupt the behavior, so you can then re-direct your dog's attention to another appropriate activity.

As recommended on the site WagandBark, optimally you can train your dog without fear and pain. Try to follow up with positive reinforcement and rewards such as playtime and/or small treats such as bits of kibble.

pawsawaybarrier.jpg

Is your dog getting into the trash, jumping on the furniture or the beds, eating off the kitchen counter and the dining room table, or hounding your baby?

Here at Super Cool Pets we generally shy away from products that deliver shock correction to pets, no matter how mild. But we concede there are times that pet owners truly need to keep their dog away from certain areas inside the home.

The PetSafe Pawz Away Instant Pet Barrier requires no training or installation and runs on batteries. The Zone covers an area between 2 and 12 feet in diameter.

Dog Whisperer Cesar Millan Mastering Leadership DVD Series 5th Ed: Common Canine Misbehaviors

cm_dvd.jpg

You may be familiar with Dog Whisperer Cesar Millan's Cesar Millan's Mastering Leadership - Volumes 1-4. Here's a few helpful hints from his latest DVD Mastering Leadership DVD Series Vol. 5 Common Canine Misbehaviors:Solutions to the 5 Most Common Dog Problems:


1.) Problems on the walk - A canine pack leader leads, and so should you! Your dog should always be next to you or behind you, never out in front. Make sure you are the first one out the door and the first one to come back in.

2.) Barking at a specific stimulus - Take time to simulate the cause of the barking, and practice correcting your dog. If it's the doorbell that sets your dog off, ring it when no one is coming over, so you can stay focused on the task at hand: helping your dog overcome this unwanted behavior.

3.) Barking while the owner is away - This is most often a symptom of separation anxiety. You can help your dog to relax by communicating that being apart is no big deal. Instead of showering your dog with affection, practice no touch, no talk, and no eye contact for at least five minutes when entering or leaving your home.

4.) Overexcitement or hyperactivity - Overexcited or hyperactive dogs are not being challenged enough. Most often, they just require more exercise! Find a new activity to try with your dog - hiking, swimming, agility courses - or step up your current walk routine. Dogs require at least 30 minutes of a structured walk every day. Talk to your vet about how much exercise your dog can safely handle.

5.) Aggression towards other dogs - Watch your temper! If you are tense, frustrated, or angry, your dog will mirror that energy right back at you, so it's especially important to remain calm when dealing with an aggressive dog. But remember, always put your safety first! Seek the help of a professional to deal with this potentially dangerous issue.
