Doggie Issues!!
Giovani sitting calm near the vacuum, I never thought I would see the day. Unfortunately some dogs fear certain objects such as, balloons, leaves, bags and yes even vacuums. In some dogs this can be fear, stress or anxiety. Giovani is a nervous Chihuahua or I should say he was, now he is well socialized and at the age of two is a bit calmer. Part of his socialization consisted of puppy class, riding bike, swimming, long walks, being introduced properly to children and trips to pet supply stores for meets and greets with other dogs. Had Giovani not received proper training early on he would be one barking, possessive ankle biting boy. He is very sweet and sociable loves to stop and say hi to people and other dogs and he has become a real cuddle bug. Some people seem to think this type of behavior is amusing and at first glance I can understand why, however it really only displays stress in the dog.
As you can see in this video he is highly stressed http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fG4BiNzSnJE after months of training, managing him and rewarding him for positive behavior when using the vacuum Giovani has moved passed his fear of the vacum and many other objects. As you can see in this second video he now loves the vacuum http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Fgml5Qwhsg all it takes is time and patientice. Bearing in mind what works for one dog may not work for another it is key to find and use the techniques and styles for each indivaul dog. We all should evalutate our own behvior and how it may effect our dogs behaviors. Great work Gio your are the sweetest loving Chihuahua boy ever! ![]()

Hello! My family simply like your website! I couldn’t see a contact form so I hope you take offense to me posting here. Wow, I ran by a brilliant concept for your interesting website
. I’m an internet marketer (for a while) and I spend a lot of time making and going through websites like Doggie Issues!! | Little Paws of Hope everyday. Times got hard and I was only making a few bucks here and there from google adsense but i discovered something SO much more powerful and better. I *swear* I made $351.76 $$CASH$$ in the last few hours after optimizing my blogs with a simple little program. Here is where I learned all my tricks: http://alturl.com/ruc6k Just giving your site a look I can tell you’ll probably pull in a few hundred bucks a month if you modify just a little code. I hope that it serves you well and you have all my blessings. Cheers! Shawna Baker
Hey! I loved your post; it’s better than 90% of the other blog posts I read (and I mean it)! I didn’t see a contact form so I hope you don’t mind me posting here. My hubby insisted that I offer you some advice. Both of us have been into blogging since 2007, so it’s safe to say we’re a bit talented and skillful. Both of us live extremely comfortably just by posting on our blogs. I wanted to let you know there’s a couple changes you can make to your blog that would increase revenue by AT LEAST triple whatever you’re making right now! There’s this site called http://alturl.com/edo8e – it tripled (almost even quadrupled!) the revenue for all my blogs. The tool will actually send targeted traffic to YOUR blog. I had Google AdSense on my blog and I went from making $2-5 a day to $100-200 a day within one week! Cool, huh? Yesterday I even made a whopping $331 when I setup two more blogs and used the software on them! I just learned about it a few weeks ago and I never plan on running a blog without it again.
Take care and good luck!
Hey! I definitely love your site! I couldn’t locate a contact page so I hope you take offense to me posting here. Hmmm, I came across a brilliant idea for your interesting blog

All my life I had to fight like a soldier, hustling even though I knew it wasn’t right. I just want to say thank you, even if you don’t know me you’ve made a difference in my life. You see, a couple weeks ago I started reaching blog owners mostly to exchange idea, etc… and I came across an amazing software that’s literally too good to be true. I *swear to god* on my honor that July 26th 2011, I made $968.46 USD and so far this week I’ve netted over $2,000, proof in the link below. I almost went crazy!! It was the easiest thing and cost virtually too, I spent about 25 minutes setting it up and was good to go. In my life, I know that opportunities like these don’t come often and don’t last for long so if you’re at all interested, I would check this FREE video out immediately
so here you go: http://snurl.com/comissiondominationguide This is my way of giving back I guess, I hope you find whatever you’re looking for today. Cheers! Mary Arzola

! But hey bud, I got some bad news, you’re really missing out of a lot of visitors. I’m a blogger myself and I spend a lot of time making and reading them, ones like Doggie Issues!! | Little Paws of Hope. I recently got a new tool and it’s done *wonders* to my entire business, this crazy thing is SO much more powerful and better. It’s only been a week but my revenue has gone up to $258.11 $$CASH$$, all in one day! So want me to do you a favor? Ok, here’s my big secret, where I learned all my tricks: –>> http://sn.im/incomedominator <– Just giving your site a look I can tell you'll probably pull in a couple hundred bucks a month if you just spend a few minutes tweaking some stuff. Damn, I feel like I just made someone's day today. But keep it a secret! I don't want too many people using it. Amelia Iniguez
This site looks great on my iPhone, many look horrible or unreadable, but this design looks real crisp and clear on the screen. Nice one!
Thank you so much for sharing this excellent content! Looking forward to seeintg more!
Amazing write up, bookmarked your blog in hopes to read more!
That is some transformation from attacking the vacum to doing commands near it. Great work
Jackie
pretty impressive
Wow I like how you got him to sit near the vacuum.
Good work
How long did it take to train him not to attache the vacuum?
Thank you very much
It was a process over time, and in increments. Probably after a month he was done attacking the vacumm.
My dog does that, can you help us?
Sure I would love to. Where are you located! send me an email at info@littlepawsofhope.com
Oh thank you so much!
