Aloha Jerry,

Just wanted to let you know that the surrogate toy
technique is working wonders. I have not had a
shredded sheet for over a week now. It is nice
to be able to leave the bed made and come home
to a made bed.

Your program is awesome, but you already know
that. Keep up the good work!

Aloha Sunny,
Just follow the training program to the letter, no matter how
insignificant some of the step seem to be and your pupy will
be a very well behaved dog in a few days.

I would seriously consider backing out of the training classes
as they will conflict with the Wit's End principles.

I went the training route first, and still had problems until I
found Wits' End. Now I have two "new and improved" dogs.
You won't be dissapointed if you follow the program.

Good luck,
Hoku

It helped clear problems from my dogs in the
field using the can penny distraction technique.

Works like a charm.

My dogs get distracted easy from their jobs ie,
retrieving or training to find lost people, oh did
I mention that I am a Search and Rescue Team
Leader.

Sorry that slipped my mind.

I have read volumes of training books and don't
know where people get that Jerry copied others
work as I have NEVER come across his methods
before. I would like to see proof.

Just like Jerry outlined I eliminated problems one
at at time as they arose. I used to try and train to
the way I wanted them but this is backward, you
train out the problems leaving what you want left over.

Funny part is the second dog who had the same
problems as the other didn't need correcting for
some of his habits after I cleared it from the first
dog.

Seemed he learned through osmosis.

Nice side benefit there.

It nearly came to giving them up to a 3rd party
trainer as they were not performing well. The
VAST majority of working dog trainers are
agressive in their actions with the dogs.

I tried it and it didn't work and guess what I
was at my "Whits End" then someone I new
turned me onto Jerry and the rest is history.

I referred friends and families to Jerry's manual
and all have had great results. Starting puppies
out on the distraction technique is especially
good because they never develop the habit.

I had my sisters dog healing, sitting and down
stay reliably at 8-9 weeks. The first night home
following Jerrys advice we ditched the crate and
put the pup on the floor beside the bed and after
2 whimpers NOT A SOUND OUT OF THAT DOG
FOR 6 HRS! first night, that has never happened
in all my days.

Sorry, the man understands dogs its that simple.

Tracy,

What worked for me, in just one storm,
was to praise the dog after each clap
of thunder, telling him he's a Good Dog!

This is an almost 13 year old Doberman, BTW.

The next time it thundered, he did not even react at
all--you could not tell it was the same dog as before.

There was more thunder just the other day, and same
thing, nada, nothing, zilch, no cowering, whimpering,
trying to hide at all, it was that simple.

I got this idea from Jerry Howe, who might seem
to be a "wild and crazy" character, but his non-
abusive way of handling dogs WORKS.

Wonderfully.

Praise.

It's that simple.

Hi Jerald, Just wanted to tell you we read
your manual and have started working with
the dogs...

"Chloe" (the one we adopted--a. k. a.
"The Destroyer") has already shown
great improvement! (In Just 1 DAY!)

She responds even better than our other
(better-behaved) dog "Poe".

We tried out the surrogate toy technique, and
not a thing was touched when we got back!

We were both surprised because Chloe isn't
that interested in toys and was still very uptight
about us reaching for the door... anyway, it
seemed to work.

We both work all day today so we'll see
how that goes... Regardless, we will be
cool as cukes when we get home! ;)

I'm just so thankful we might have a chance
to get through to her! We're very excited about
her progress thus far...

Thank You!

Nicole, Michael, Poe and especially Chloe!

Hi !
Our black lab girl is 3 months old (she will be 4 months
on the 30th).

When we first brought her home she had a bad habit
of trying to nip our faces (including my 3 year old twins)
during playtime. It drove everyone in the house nuts
and it brought my little girls to tears as you can imagine.
We tried saying no, and that would just get her even
more excited, so we would yell no and that would just
get her "scared" but still excited. In short it just wasn't
working.

So we finally did what Jerry has suggested to you.
We used a sound do distract her and we would
immediately praise her.

I have to say that it worked great. BUT she
then moved on to nipping at the feet LOL silly
little thing.

So again, we tried no, and then louder no, but again
it didn't work so we went for the distraction and praise.

I must say that she is doing great!

I hope that helps.

Re: Barking Deterrants Needed...

Hi. Please understand that I do not know Jerry
and have spoken with him briefly once by email.

I have no stake or interest in the success of  his
business.  I simply want to thank him publicly for
one of his tips, with regards to separation anxiety.

I thought it seemed far fetched to praise a stuffed
animal and then say good bye to my own dog, but
I am usually a very open minded person, so I tried it.

Well, lo and behold- the damn trick worked!

I think Jerry has some intriguing techniques, and
personally I think everyone who constantly criticizes
him is not understanding his logic.

Thank you Jerry!

I've been having a problem with my dog, Axel,
relieving himself in the house while I'm away
from home.

I've used TPW method's, and yesterday I was out
for 12 hours, and Axel didn't have one single "accident".

Today, I had hoped that the results would be just as
good - and they were (I was out for 11 hours).

The problem began when, as a puppy, Axel would
relieve himself in the house and I would point at the
mess and tell him "NO" or "Bad Dog".

That made him afraid to relieve himself in the house
or infront of me.

After I got TPW's training manual, I corrected my
mishandling of these instances.

When I came home to an "accident", I would simply
drop a can near the area and ask Axel "What's that?"
Then I would clean it up - with out showing him I was
the least bit upset about the mess, and when he looked
at the spot I would tell him "Good boy, you're a good dog".

This has been an ongoing problem, and thanks to the
Puppy Wizard, we've finally got it taken care of...

Also, Axel LOVES the cat's litter box...He enjoys the
"snacks" he can find in there...I followed TPW's methods
by alternating sounds and praising him while or before
he sticks his nose in it, and today, he's been going into
the room with the cat box and barking.  That's because
he's thinking about getting into the box, but he knows he
shouldn't.

Thank you, Jerry, for all you help.  You've been a
blessing to all of us.

From: AIMEE (countrygirl0...@yahoo.com):

I own a black an tan coonhound.  We got him
as a puppy, and due to constant mishandling
(pulling on his lead, negative corrections, and
the occasional use of a bark collar) I ended
up with a very anxious dog.

I couldn't leave him home alone, I couldn't
crate him, I couldn't even take my dog for
walks because he feared EVERYTHING.

I was going to have to get rid of him if things
didn't turn around.

My husband and I searched the internet for
answers - AND WE FOUND THE PUPPY WIZARD.

For all of you disbeliveers out there HIS METHODS WORK!

I've followed his manual, and we now have a
dog that can be  left home  alone, that heels
on command, that can go outside and NOT
be afraid of everything he sees.

Not only have his methods helped our dog, but
our marriage has gotten better.  We had fallen
into a rut - constant bickering and tension, we
never laughed or had FUN together - but now,
with the same mindset used in THE PUPPY
WIZARDS dog training, our communications
channels have opened, and we now work
together instead of against one another.

For all the "Literalists" out there, NO WE DID
NOT TEACH EACH OTHER TO SIT, STAY,
OR HEEL.

We simply eliminated the nagging and the
acting out to get NEGATIVE attention from
one another since we weren't getting
the POSITIVE attention we wanted.

So, it's been proven - THE PUPPY WIZARDS
METHODS WORK.

It's up to you to accept them.  Yes, there's alot
of blame that we have to accept, but once we
realize that we've caused these problems to
arise, we can strive to make things better.

         The Puppy Wizard's Wits End Training Method

       I have studied canine behavior and dog training for
       years. I have a huge library that covers every system
       of training.

       The Puppy Wizard's (Jerry Howe's) Wits' End Training
       Method is by far the most scientific, the most advanced,
       the kindest, the quickest and the most effective training
       method yet discovered.

       It is not an assortment of training tips and tricks; it is
       a logically consistent system. Every behavior problem
       and every obedience skill is treated in the same logically
       consistent manner.

       Please study his manual carefully. Please endeavor to
       understand the basis of his system and please follow
       his directions exactly. His manual is a masterpiece.
       It is dense with theory, with explanation, with detailed
       descriptions about why behavior problems occur and
       how their solution should be approached.

       One should not pick and choose from among his methods
       based upon what you personally like or dislike. His is not a
       bag of tricks but a complete and integrated system for not
       only training a dog but for raising a loving companion.

       When I once said to Jerry that his system creates for
       you the dog of your dreams, his response was that it
       produces for your dog the owner of his dreams.

       You see, Jerry has discovered that if you are gentle
       with your dog then he will be gentle with you, if you
       praise your dog every time he looks at you, then you
       will become the center of your dogs world, if you use
       Jerry's sound distraction with praise, then it takes
       just minutes-sometimes merely seconds-to train your
       dog to not misbehave (even in your absence) (Just 15
       seconds this morning to train my 10 week old puppy to
       lie quietly and let me clip his nails).

       Using Jerry's scientific method (sound distraction /
       praise / alteration / variation) it takes just minutes to
       train you dog to respond to your commands.

       What a pleasure it was for me to see my 6 week old
       puppy running as fast has his wobbly little legs would
       carry him in response to my recall command-and he
       comes running every time I call no matter where we are
       or what he is doing.

       At ten weeks old now, my puppy never strains upon
       his leash thanks to Jerry's hot & cold exercises and
       his Family Pack Leadership exercises.

      Jerry has discovered that if you scold your dog, if you
      scream at him, if you intimidate him, if you hurt him,
      if you force him then his natural response is to oppose
      you.

      Is Jerry a nut?

     It doesn't make any difference to me whether he is or not.
     It is a logical fallacy to judge a person's ideas based upon
     their personality. As far as dogs are concerned, Jerry
     wears his heart upon his sleeve. It touches him deeply
     when he hears of trainers forcing, intimidating, scolding
     or hurting dogs.

     More than that, he knows  that force is not effective
     and that it will certainly  lead to behavior problems;
     sometime problems so severe  that people put their
     dogs down because of those problems.

    I believe that it is natural for humans to want to control
    their dog by force. Jerry knows this too. We have all been
    at our wits' end, haven't we?

    Dogs have a natural tendency to mimic. In scientific
    literature it is referred to allelomimetic behavior. Dogs
    respond in like kind to force; they respond in like kind
    to praise.

   Don't bribe your dog with treats; give him what he
   wants most-your kind attention. Give him your praise.
   You will be astonished at how your dog 's anxiety will
   dissipate and how their behavior problems will dissipate
   along with their anxiety.

   Treat Jerry Howe's (The Puppy Wizard) Wits' End
   Training Method as a scientific principle just as you
   would the law of gravity and you will have astounding
   success.

   Dog behavior is just as scientific as is gravity.

   If you follow Jerry's puppy rules you will get a sweet little
   Magwai; if you don't you will surely get a little gremlin
   (anyone see The Gremlins?). --Larry
