dog food Advice

Dogs can be amazing at understanding spoken communication. Many dogs take two years to learn anything beyond the easiest basics to the point that it consistently sticks. But they don't reason out or get context the way humans do. Simultaneously, gently take both the dog's forelegs and pull toward you, issuing the voice command. When the behavior is complete, praise lavishly.- Get impatient and frustrated when they don't behave as you want them to. When the dog starts to sit, give the command and signal. Hold off on food treats until you really need them. But dogs make choices very differently from people. Some will get it fast, some will take ten or more or won't get it without further prompting. We can wsh it were so but it's not and never will be! Though the average grown dog has a mental development someplace approximately on the level of a human two year old, there are more deviations than there are similarities. Take special care with young hips - don't force a completely uncooperative dog this way.After several repetitions try just using a 'waving down' hand movement, palm toward the floor or ground. So, the dog hasn't evolved to understand why you're hitting them. Be patient, clear and consistent. With repetition comes understanding. That way a dog associates the behavior with the command.Difficulty training 'sit' varies by breed, individual and training style. When you see it give a unique voice command and hand gesture pair. But if these are not the results you desire, be prepared to change YOUR behaviour, before you try to alter the dog's. Dog Training - How NOT To Train Your DogJust about every dog owner truly wants to train their dog well. As important is what he is not doing! In a sit dogs can't chase cats, knock over furniture, run into the street. It's totally counter-productive and won't help anyway. Most times, they are not ignoring the command as much as failing to understand it.Repetition, consistency (reward only for the proper action), and enthusiasm will quickly lead to learning the 'sit'.Patience is the number one required quality, therefore. When a dog is 'down' it can't knock over furniture or children.Lets

Hello Andrew, Virgil61 from UNRV (and wikipedia), just ran across your name and discovered you here. Thought I'd pop in and say hello, look forward to reading some of your contributions. Virgil61 16:13, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the contribution! It's a pleasure to see you editing around here. Take care -- Samir 04:39, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

By chance, do you know where is physically that bust of Cato the Elder?

Hello, Andrew! A short question: would you happen to know the museum/collection where this bust/statue belongs? Maybe the British Museum? (I am deeply intrigued by its source.) Thanks in advance! -- Pichote 20:06, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the articles on vida and razo! They're a big help! And thanks for the compliment on the work being done on Trobairitz . If you have any further ideas on how to improve the article, they would be greatly appreciated. Keep up the awesome work, Mak (talk) 16:00, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks

and thank you for fixing the entry up. This is my first real foray into editing, so I'm still rather green.

Lord's late take on dictation

Since you said I whetted your appetite, I'll look up the reference and write you.

Giving lectures

Thank you for the short lecture you gave . As English is not my native tongue every improvement is welcome but will you please re-edit the Iman Wilkens article to how it was before you changed it? (Except for the lecture-bit of course). Regards Antiphus 18:45, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

No I'm not Iman and I don't have any other purpose or reason for editing articles other than contributing to the global effort to find out about our history. I'm shure that the book is not too expensive for you and there must be a library near you but I am really not interested in having this conversation with you as I'm shure you're never going to read the book. I know other people like you; You read a newspaper article about some theory being (as you call it) "crackpot" and immediately you loose interest, afraid of openly showing any curiosity about the theory, scared of not being taken seriously any more by your friends and colleages. Now will you please remove the line? Regards Antiphus 19:33, 14 August 2006 (UTC)


Hallo Andrew I edited the line that you put in the article myself because somehow I don't think that you're going to. Was I right about the crackpot- thing I wrote or are you really interested? If so I apologize for my reaction. The location Wilkens gives is the Gog Magog Downs. This theory is not about moving entire countries as sometimes seems to have been claimed watching the unbelief but about migration of the orally transmitted poems and locations being re-named in the Mediterranean; that's not impossible, is it? RegardsAntiphus 19:58, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

Hi Andrew, Thank you for editing the article (I see now it only improved) and please feel free to make me aware of any grammar or other mistake that I'll make in the future. I'm sorry for the ill-tempered guesses I made about you and if you ever need any lines translated into Dutch or have any questions in that direction don't hesitate to ask. Regards Antiphus 05:25, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Userboxes/Writing systems

thanks for your comment. Maybe Wikipedia:Userboxes/Writing systems can answwer the ISO conform question. I think the old grk cats still work. Of course they should be moved to Grek. Tobias Conradi (Talk) 13:25, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

thx for saying thank you :-). Saw you allready added a new script. Fine, so it seems not tooooo hard to edit the stuff. Only the category management via the template is not fully ready yet. Some more if/else coding is needed. But I could not easily figure out how to do it. Tobias Conradi (Talk) 00:10, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

dominic

hello. thanks for straightening out my clumsy addition of jane of aza to the dominic page. i will find out the earlist mention of jane of aza soon and pass that info along to you. i have access to the library of a convent of dominican sisters, so if anyone would know, it would be them. Hongkyongnae 14:59, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

hello again, some quick research turned this up about jane of aza. A castilian preacher named rodrigo de cerrato who had visisted caleruega shortly after 1280 described saint cominic's father as "honorable and rich among the people ofhis village." he goes on to discuss saint dominic's relatives, including jane of aza. my source for this is "Saint Dominic and his Times" by M. H. Vicaire, O.P., translated by Kathleen Pond. McGraw-Hill Book Company, 1964, p. 403. I hope that is of some help. Hongkyongnae 02:02, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

false link

for me there are two. Arbanass is not mentioned at Albanians page, so this is kind of false here. Can you write something about the Arbanasses? :-) Tobias Conradi (Talk) 19:58, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Seljuk Turks

I'm not involved in the Turkey WikiProject, so I guess they can do whatever they want, I'm not going to change anything...that guy does have a point, the Seljuks are only marginally connected to modern Turkey, it just bothers me that the English Wikipedia is being used by non-native speakers to push various stupid agenda.

cats for deletion

need your help at Wikipedia:Categories_for_deletion/Log/2006_August_26#Category:Writing_systems_categories

pschemp just set up something for deletion without talking. Category:User Cyrl-N is heavily populated. But proably all the people in this cat are not aware of the deltion. Tobias Conradi (Talk) 01:41, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

agree with you. We should think about the levels. Currently I try to phase out some few used templates, i.e. I try to replace them with the param template. Tobias Conradi (Talk) 11:59, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

would be nice if you post a keep vote. The main point is that Fooo is not the same as Fooo-5. Tobias Conradi (Talk) 12:01, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

I never proposed the whole category system for deletion, just a merging of the redundant ones if you read carefully. Tobais has taken great offence to this obviously, but having 3 cats for templates that say the same things is silly and redundant. Needless to say, since you suggested merging the templates, it is logical that you would want the categories they create to be merged. pschemp | talk 18:03, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Kayah Li

would like your comment at Talk:Kayah Li. Do you think it met WP:CSD#Articles? Tobias Conradi (Talk) 15:45, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

Re: your note on my talk page.

I would expect that either the indexing is on the first word in the name, which is "De", or the first meaningful word, which in this case
