			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It is annoying when you are woken up in the middle of the night to your dog barking. As much as this is annoying to you just imagine what it is like for your neighbors. This is why it is important that you teach a dog not to bark excessively.</p>
<p>As with any other behavior with a do you need to understand the reasons behind your dog, doing what it is they are doing. There are a few main reasons as to why a dog barks. The first is to show any intruder or another dog that they are the alpha dog in that yard. Another reason is they are trying to alert you to something, either danger or simply to remind you it is feeding time. Third, they may feel stress; this could come because of being left alone for too long.</p>
<p>Now that you know the reasons as to why, how do you stop it. If it is a case of he is trying to prove his dominance, then he needs to learn that among your pack you are the alpha dog. It is also to remember that dogs tend to have a pack mentality. If you show your dominance then he will learn his place among the pack.</p>
<p>Spend some time to pamper your dog with <a href="http://www.evolutionsupply.com/dog-shampoo.html">medicated dog shampoo</a> that are high quality and smells good like the <a href="http://www.evolutionsupply.com">neem pet shampoo</a>. You&#8217;ll thank yourself for it later.</p>
<p>If he is trying to alert you to something, then you naturally need to take action. If it is simply a matter of he wants to be fed, then you need to ignore him. This may be hard to do but eventually he will give up on his barking to get what he wants.</p>
<p>The last reason is stress; dogs cannot tell you what happened to them. Therefore, you need to try to understand the reason for his stress. Maybe something happened while you were gone. Regardless of the reasons, the best option is obedience training as soon as you can start this will help deter any future problems from developing.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Many dog owners often worry about the safety of the dog when they are out on duty. This is because dogs love to roam within the compound, and it is very risky if you have a swimming pool within the compound. Dogs can easily dive in the pool thus subjecting them to the risk of drowning. But dog owners no longer have to worry about the safety of their pets, because electric dog fence collar is a highly sophisticated device that keeps the dog off restricted areas within the yard.</p>
<p>The collar is fastened around the dog’s neck so that every time it roams around the pool and other risk areas in compound, it delivers a warning tone to the dog. The tone is a signal that keeps the dog off the containment area. Some dogs may be persistent and would love to test the limits of the containment area by all means. With such dogs, the collar will deliver a mild shock that will correct the dog to stay off its boundaries.  <a href="http://www.electricdogfence.com/">Electric dog fence collar</a> will keep correcting the dog for a few days and it will soon learn of its new boundaries in the compound.  With the high technology device, dog owners can relax with no concerns over the dog’s safety.</p>
