TRAINING YOUR DOG
The basis of training any animal is winning its trust,confidence and respect. True training cannot begin until theanimal has accepted you as its leader, respects you andentrusted you with his or her confidence. The mistake many puppy owners make is mistaking love andaffection for respect and confidence. While it is certainlyimportant to love your new puppy, it is also very important thatthe puppy respect you and see you as his leader. Dogs arenaturally pack animals, and every dog looks to the lead dog foradvice and direction. Making yourself the pack leader is vitalto the success of training any dog. Failure to gain the respect of the dog can create a dog who isdisobedient, out of control and even dangerous. Problem dogs aredangerous, whether they are created through bad breeding, ownerignorance or improper training. It is important to train the dogright from the start, since retraining a problem dog is muchmore difficult than training a puppy right the first time. It is important for any new dog owner, whether working with a 12week old puppy or a twelve year old dog, to immediately get therespect of the animal. That does not mean using rough ordangerous handling methods, but it does mean letting the dogknow that you are in control of the situation. Dogs needstructure in their lives, and they will not resent the ownertaking control. As a matter of fact, the dog will appreciateyour taking the role of trainer and coach as you begin yourtraining session. When working with the dog, it is important to keep the trainingsessions short at first. This is particularly important whenworking with a young puppy, since puppies tend to have muchshorter attention spans than older dogs. Keeping the trainingsessions short, and fun, is essential for proper training. Beginning training sessions should focus on the most basiccommands. The heel command is one of the most basic, and one ofthe easiest to teach. Start by putting the dog or puppy in aproperly fitted training collar. Be sure to follow theinstructions for fitting and sizing the color to ensure that itworks as intended. Begin to walk and allow your dog to walk beside you. If the dogbegins to pull, gently pull on the leash. This in turn willtighten the training collar and correct the dog. If the gentlepressure is ineffective, it may be necessary to slowly increasethe pressure. Always be careful to not over-correct the dog.Using too much pressure could frighten the dog and cause it tostrain more. I the opposite problem occurs and the dog lagsbehind, the owner should gently encourage it until it is walkingbeside the owner. Most dogs figure out the heeling concept fairly rapidly, andquickly figure out that they should walk beside their owners,neither lagging behind nor pulling ahead. Once the dog hasmastered heeling at a moderate pace, the owner should slow hisor her pace and allow the dog to adjust along with it. The ownershould also speed up the pace and allow the dog to speed up aswell. Finally, walking along and changing pace often willreinforce the lesson that the dog should always walk at the heelof the handler. >From heeling, the next step should be to halt on command. Thishalt command works well as an adjunct to heel. As you arewalking, stop and watch you dog. Many dogs immediately realizethat they are expected to stop when their handler does. Othersmay need the reminder of the leash and the training collar. After the halt on command has been mastered, the handler shouldencourage the dog to sit on command as well. Once the dog hasstopped, the handler gently pushes on the dog's hindquarters toencourage the sit. Usually, after this walk, halt, sit procedurehas been done a few times, the dog will begin to sit on his owneach time he stops. Of course, it is important to provide greatpraise, and perhaps even a treat, every time the dog does as heis expected.

Dog Training: Learn The Strategies To Train Your Puppy To Accept The Collar And Lead
Walking on a collar and lead is an important skill that everydog must learn. Even the best trained dog should never be takenoutside the home or yard without a sturdy collar and leash. Evenif your dog is trained perfectly to go off lead, accidents anddistractions do happen, and a collar, with proper identificationattached, is the best way to be sure you will get your belovedcompanion back. Of course before you can teach your new puppy to accept aleash, he or she must first learn to accept wearing a collar.The first step is to choose a collar that fits the dog properly.It is important to measure the puppy's neck, and to choose acollar size accordingly. After the collar has been put on the puppy, simply let him orher get used to it. It is not unusual for a puppy to try to pullon the collar, whine, roll or squirm when first introduced to acollar. The best strategy is to simply ignore the puppy and let him orher get used to the collar. It is a mistake to either punish thedog for playing with the collar or to encourage the behavior.Distracting the puppy often helps, and playing with a favoritetoy, or eating some favorite treats, can help the puppy quicklyforget that he or she is wearing this strange piece of equipment. After the dog has learned to accept the collar, try adding theleash. Hook the leash to the collar and simply sit and watch thepuppy. Obviously, this should only be done either in the houseor in a confined outdoor area. The puppy should be allowed todrag the leash around on its own, but of course the owner shouldkeep a close eye on the puppy to ensure that the leash does notbecome snagged or hung up on anything. At first, the leash should only be left on for a few minutes ata time. It is a good idea to attach the leash at mealtimes,playtime and other positive times in the life of the puppy. That way the puppy will begin to associate the leash with goodthings and look forward to it. If the puppy shows a high degreeof fear of the leash, it is a good idea to place it next to thefood bowl for awhile to let him get used to it slowly.Eventually, he will come to understand that the leash is nothingto be afraid of. After the puppy is comfortable with walking around the housewearing the leash, it is time for you to pick up the end of theleash for a few minutes. You should not try to walk the puppy onthe leash; simply hold the end of the leash and follow the puppyaround as he or she walks around. You should try to avoidsituations where the leash becomes taut, and any pulling orstraining on the leash should be avoided. It is fine for thepuppy to sit down. Try a few games with the collar and lead. For instance, back up and encourage the puppy to walk towardyou. Don't drag the puppy forward, simply encourage him to cometo you. If he does, praise him profusely and reward him with afood treat or toy. You should always strive to make all the timespent on the leash as pleasant as possible. It is important to give the puppy plenty of practice in gettingused to walking on the leash in the home. It is best to doplenty of work in the home, since it is a safe environment withfew distractions. After the puppy is comfortable walking indoorson a leash, it is time to start going outside, beginning ofcourse in a small, enclosed area like a fenced yard. After the puppy has mastered walking calmly outdoors on a leash,it is time to visit some places where there are moredistractions. You may want to start with a place like aneighbor's yard. Walking your new puppy around the neighborhoodis a good way to introduce your neighbors to the new puppy,while giving the puppy valuable experience in avoidingdistractions and focusing on his leash training. Puppies sometimes develop bad habits with their leashes, suchas biting or chewing on the leash. To discourage this type ofbehavior, try applying a little bit of bitter apple, Tabascosauce or similar substance (just make sure the substance you useis not toxic to dogs). This strategy usually convinces puppiesthat chewing the leash is a bad idea.

New business?
However small
it may be,
success requires
proper planning,
preparation and
insight.

YOUR
RIGHTS In business, there are no
guarantees. There’s simply
no way to eliminate risks
associated with starting an
enterprise. But you can improve
chances of success with good
planning, preparation and insight.
Find out what to consider when
starting a business.
Drawing up a business plan
It’s important to draft a
comprehensive and thoughtful
business plan. Much hinges on
it: Outside funding, credit from
suppliers, management of your
operation and finances, promotion
and marketing of your business,
and achievement of your goals
and objectives.
Creating a business plan will
force you to think about key issues
before you start your enterprise,
such as raising money and your
projected start-up costs and
marketing strategies. This will help
you figure out if your idea is
a winner.

Naming
The core of naming a business lies
in understanding the trademark
law. Trademarks help consumers
identify the makers of the goods
or services. Often, the name of
your company may also be used
as a trademark to identify your
company’s offerings. What’s in a
name, you may wonder. But if you
choose something too similar to a
competitor’s name, you might be
accused of violating the their legal
rights, and you could be forced to
change it and even pay monetary
damages. A good business name
should be:
■ Distinctive
■ Memorable
■ Easily spelled and
pronounced
■ Suggest the products or
services you offer
■ Distinguish you from your
competitors
Partnerships
Many people opt for partnerships
with their friends or relatives for
doing business, because they
feel very comfortable dealing with
people they have known for a long
time. But before you do, create
a Partnership Agreement which
should include the following:
■ Amount of equity invested by
each partner
■ Type of business
■ How profit and loss will be
shared
■ Each partner’s pay and
compensation
■ Distribution of assets on
dissolution
■ Provisions for changes or
dissolving the partnership
■ Dispute settlement clause
■ Settlement in case of death or
incapacitation
■ Restrictions of authority
and expenditures
Financing A new business
Money can be raised either by
borrowing it from a friend, family
member, bank or selling ownership
interests (equity) in your business.
There’s no hard and fast rule on
the best way to raise money; you’ll
have to evaluate your situation
and decide what kind of loan or
investment you’re willing to take.
If you are going beyond family
and friends for loans or equity
investments, you’ll definitely need
a business plan.
If you take a loan, you will
have to repay the money over
time (usually monthly), with
interest. The lender won’t receive
an ownership interest in your
business, and you won’t have to
share any of your future profits
with the lender. On the other hand,
if you raise money by selling equity
(ownership interests), you will
not have to make these monthly
payments or repay the investment
at any particular date. L e g a l
All about you
The business of
doing business
your business is profitable, you’ll
need to share the profits with your
investors, generally in proportion
to the percentage of the business
they own.
Licences and permits
Business licences and permits
can range from the general (a
basic trade licence to operate
a business within a city), to the
specific (a permit to sell alcohol/
firearms/food items). Bear in mind
that regulations vary by industry.
Investigate into the licensing
and permit requirements that
affect your industry, and avoid
any temptation to ignore these
important regulatory details.
Being out of licensing and permit
compliance could leave you
unprotected legally, which may
lead to expensive penalties, and
can jeopardise your business.
Location of workplace
There is no universal rule for
choosing a business location.
The biggest consideration is
sometimes not where it is but
what it is. The building facilities
need to be appropriate for your
business whether you are working
from home, a business centre or
a rented space. Or you could take
up space in a market with similar
businesses or consumer groups.
Entering into agreements
Be mindful of employment
contracts as these take different
forms. All employees at a
company may be asked to sign
the same form of contract, or
each employee may have a
contract with the employer that
is exclusively applicable to his
or her employment agreement.
It mentions the kind of work the
employee will do, for how long,
and at what rate of pay. Please
consult an attorney who can
advise you about Confidentiality
and Non-Competition Agreements,
and clauses pertaining to
ownership of inventions, exclusive
employment, termination,
minimum wages, bonus,
arbitration and jurisdiction.
In almost all business dealings,
every time you or your company
agrees to take some action or
make a payment in exchange
for anything of value, a legal
contract is created. Make sure
that you and the other party
agree on the meaning of any
potentially ambiguous words or
phrases. Even a misplaced (or
unnoticed) punctuation mark can
dramatically change the scope of
your rights and obligations under a
contract. Watch out for commonly
misused words. When you agree to
bimonthly payments, for instance,
do you understand that you will be
paid every other month? Or do you
expect to be paid twice a month?
Some business agreements may
be simple enough for the regular
person to draft, while others may
require the help of a lawyer.
Advertising
If your advertisement is deceptive,
you’ll face legal problems even
if you had the best intentions
while framing it. In addition, if
your advertisement contains a
false statement, you have already
violated the law. The fact that you
didn’t know ‘the information was
false’ is irrelevant. Advertisements
should conform to laws and
should not go against morality,
decency and the religious
susceptibilities of people.
Business Advisors
Finally, the key to success for any
entrepreneur is to have the best
set of advisors, not necessarily
the most expensive but the
ones you can trust totally. These
may includes lawyers, chartered
accountants, insurance advisors,
and bankers among others.

Decide on the meaing of potentially
ambiguous phrases. Even a misplaced
punctuat ion mark can change the
scope of your rights and obligations..
