Is that really the plot for horse whisperer? I never seen it but I can understand why all the girls I know that love that movie are hosed up.

No, the horse whisperer was about doing the exact opposite of this.

The Horse Whisperer was about a man who kills a horse in front of another horse, so the surviving horse knows to obey.

Putting a horse head in a human's bed is intimidating, but guess what: it's even more effective on horses.

Isn't that alpha wolf stuff complete bullshit that someone just made up anyway?

It's a great idea because it's awesome for an aggressive dog to see you as another dog instead of a human. Also pack hierarchies never change in the wild.

Better to beat a dog than neuter it

This reason why anyone gets a dog is because the human is stupid and needs to be superior to something. That's why it is super funny when you go over to a house and Mr. Ruffers is jumping all over the loving place, and the owner is all like "Mr. Ruffers get down", and Mr.Ruffers doesn't give a poo poo. That human introduced a dog into their life to feel like they're not the dumbest person in the room, and the dog beat them. That's hilarious.

My friend has a dog that she won't neuter but also will not get a girl dog for him to plow so he just pathetically fucks his bed. She should just cut his drat balls off

dogs humping other dogs really is a dominance display so your dog is probably real proud of dominating the weird furry thing that's like 10x her size. you should give her a biscuit

gonna Real Post here for a second:

me and my partner have a frenchie who is amazingly docile chill and friendly when its just me and him, but as soon as she's around he gets wild stupid and constantly barks at her and will dig at a blanket if she has one over here

how do i fix this before i throw his expensive rear end in the dumpster?

get some really awesome treats like raw hot dog chunks or cheese or something, and have her give them to the dog a lot. Have all visitors give them to your dog. Do it a lot.

That's it, that's really all you need to do :shrug:

e: works better when guests give different, REALLY good treats from what you'd normally use yourself

they also make your house smell like rancid piss. If you think your cat is one of the perfect clean ones, your nose has just adjusted to the constant state of piss stink and you just aren't noticing it.

Rabbits have to eat their own poo poo because god wanted something to laugh at.

Cats do it because they are emotionally unstable.

LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT MY DOG
By the way, about food 'aggression' it's really resource guarding, the dog is guarding his food and getting up in his face while he's eating is the actual aggression. Resource guarding is instinctive for pretty much all dogs, it's instinctive for wolves and guarding behavior has been reinforced by thousands of years of selective breeding. You don't overcome this with one simple trick whether it's a throat punch or petting or anything.

Feed the dog yummy things from your hands. Do that a lot. Hold a bowl with yummy things in it and let the dog eat from the bowl while you hold it, do that a lot. If the dog already has a problem with resource guarding, don't punish or take food away, that just makes it worse. Give him the food and have some other special yummy poo poo, sit nearby and offer it from your hand. Do this a lot, if the dog is growling or raising his lips then back away a little bit. Speak quietly in a faggy high pitched voice. If your dog is like most dogs, gradually he realizes protecting his food from you isn't really a big deal and humans are OK because they give you tasty poo poo to eat.

E: if this isn't working find a professional dog trainer

one time i ran into cesar milan at a sushi restaurant and he was sitting there trying to have some kind of important conversation with his child, i think about him and his wife's divorce. i eavesdropped for a little then i went up to him and interrupted him so i could ask him if he was cesar milan from the TV. he was a good sport.
