As a way of inspiring more ppl to spend more time working with and trainong thier dogs, I am currently working on a new section for my BD4U website. It is obviously called "Dog Training Success Stories".

The goal of this new section is to show ppl that it's not that hard to train a dog as long as you do it in the correct way.

Stories will be submitted by site visitors as well as from sites like this one. The point is, the stories will come from regular ppl and not just from professional trainers.

All stories need to contain the obvious things.

- The behaivor or trick that you trained
- The method your used to train the behavior (step by step details)
- Comments about the training process (any special things you may have done)
- A photo of the dog
- Any conclussions you have drawn from the experence
- Advice to others about training this or others behaviors in genera

- A link to any video you may have posted about this behaivor or trick (YouTube, etc) ... (OPTIONAL)

Please note that All submissions should be sent to: betterdog@live.com with the subject line "Success Stories"
By submitting a story to BD4U, you agree to allow BD4U to edit spelling, readability and content that does not alter the overall story. For legal reasons all submissions will need to become the property of BD4U. In exchange we will post a link to the writer's website or personal page on the internet.

I might just have to videotape my little guy doing some of his tricks and send them in!
great idea for your site!

That will be great. But dont forget to write and tell us how you did it (step by step) so other ppl can follow your instruction. This area is all about showing ppl "how to" and giving them the motivation to work with their dogs.

Thats definitely a good idea! It will not only motivate people to see that just about anyone can train their dog, but also will help those that are in similar situations. Good idea, hope you get some submission, I'll be sure to participate when I get Jr's prey drive under control.lol.

Im looking for ALL kINDS of training, not only the hard ones ... I did a SS on getting Neka to stop pulling, and I'm doing one for Patchs on a trick and one on Chip too.
