I told him that since my art dolls were very impressionistic in style & feel that I wanted my web site to reflect that & give the “impressionist” emotional response for my viewers.

He agreed & created my dream web site from scratch. For the launching of my new figurative art dolls web site I needed to find a qualified & talented website design guru that could pull off the near impossible- make my web pages pleasing enough to increase my sales by at least 25%.

FREE Dog Training Tips: Easy Steps to YOU Leading the Pack part 3

22 08 2008

[This article is the third in a 3-part series about changing dog behavior using positive dog training methods.]

Be a leader, a dog will follow.

From the last two articles, remember King and his dominant dog behavior? King was the leader of his pack — Mom, Dad, 2 kids. King set the rules in the house and didn’t hesitate to enforce them, with growling, snapping, and even biting. I introduced 3 simple dog training steps to help you begin to take the leadership role back from King.

Then there was Queenie and her family (especially Mom), who gently took the leadership position. Queenie learned dog manners and wonderful dog behavior through Mom’s gentle but firm positive dog training methods and her consistency in teaching Queenie house rules. Queenie was eager to learn and to please and received lots of praise and tons of treats. With humans as pack leaders and dogs as pack members (preferably at the bottom of the hierarchy!), the whole household is calm and happy.

Let’s talk about your household. Your angel might not be as dominant or aggressive as King, and you may have worked with her some but not quite enough to have a dog similar to Queenie. Time is sometimes a factor — with our lives as busy as they are, sometimes it’s difficult to make time to for even short periods of dog training. But if you’ll give it a little effort, the payoff will be tremendous. You can change your dog’s behavior in no time at all.

I want to give you a few more new recommendations for regaining leadership in your pack. But first, I want to review some of the ones found in the first two articles. For the complete list, go to http://www.best-dog-articles.com.

SOME REVIEW STEPS

Get their attention first — say Fido’s name before you say the command.

Be kind — Use a gentle voice, give commands and direction calmly and lovingly.

Let’s play — YOU start and end all games. Keep them wanting more.

Let’s EAT — YOU eat before feeding the dog.

Praise, praise, praise – Pour on the praise for good dog behavior and good manners.

NEW STEPS

1. Are you sick?!

One of the first concerns with new or unwanted behaviors (e.g., excessive urination) is a health concern. Get a vet check to address any health concerns that might cause behaviors your dog has no control over.

2. Down every day!

Put your dog in a “down” position for 5-10 minutes every day. This reinforces for your dog that you are the leader. Beginning this program may involve many jump-ups. Just gently and firmly put the dog back down. (No need to restart time.) You will notice that the breaks of command quickly fall away. It’s fine for your dog to sleep through this one!

3. Do that AGAIN!

Dogs love routine. They have incredible internal clocks. One activity that dogs love and that routine is important is mealtime. I suggest feeding dogs two times a day (no running buffet) within an hour window each time (e.g., 7-8AM and 5-6PM). Watch your dog — if you do something regularly, they come to expect it and act appropriately. Other activities that can become routine are morning or evening walks, Saturday errands, the time you come home from work. If it’s a regular thing, your dog knows it’s going to happen.

4. Brush, brush, brush the coat!

One activity you both can enjoy is grooming. Daily gentle grooming reinforces a loving relationship with your dog. This can become prized private time for both of you.

5. Through the paces– Every day!

Obedience training is very important to do every day, even for 5 minutes at a time. Try to avoid the military commando approach. Be consistent and kind, get your dog’s attention first, praise, praise, praise for his willingness and compliance to your commands. Practicing obedience reinforces that you are the leader.

CONCLUSION

That’s it! You now have the arsenal for regaining the leadership position in your pack and getting some good dog behavior practices in place. Emphasizing the positive in your dog training efforts pays off exponentially — your dog will be your friend for life and won’t be scared of you. When you establish yourself as leader, dogs respect you and will work so hard to please you. Take the time to get these easy steps into your daily routine and watch the changes magically occur.

Wishing you a calm and happy adventure with your canine companions.

Hair Loss: Don’t Rule Out a Thyroid Condition

21 08 2008

If you suffer from hair loss you might want to make sure that your problem is not caused by a thyroid condition. Although the usual reasons for hair loss are genetic predetermination, hormonal changes, or certain cancer treatments, thyroid hair loss should also be considered.

There are three types of hair loss; thyroid hair loss, autoimmune alopecia, and male pattern hair loss. Thyroid hair loss can manifest in both hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism. In those with thyroid hair loss, there will be a general thinning of the hair, without the bald patches characteristic of male pattern baldness.

Symptoms of hypothyroidism include fatigue, dry skin, abnormal sensitivity to cold, constipation and depression. If you one or more of these symptoms along with loss of hair, think about getting tested for thyroid problems.

Synthroid is commonly prescribed in hypothyroidism; this medication is effective however, it can produce thyroid hair loss as a side effect for some people. Your hair loss may be due to Synthroid, so speak to your doctor about the possibility. Thyroid hair loss can also occur if you are under-treated. A Thyroid Stimulating Hormone level of around 1-2 is optimal for a large number of people who are suffering from hypothyroidism with no hair falling.

Evening primrose oil supplements are one alternative therapy that some have found to be useful in alleviating thyroid hair loss. Aromatherapy is another which is reported to be effective. Essential oils of thyme, cedar wood oil, lavender, and rosemary can be blended and applied to the scalp to help encourage hair growth.

Ayurveda medicines such as Bhingaraj oil or brahmi oil have also been used to treat hair loss due to thyroid conditions. Both these oils applied to the scalp continuously for at least 3 months are said to aid hair growth. Growth of hair will also be aided by supplementation with the ayurvedic herbs amla and ashwagandha.

The ultimate remedy for thyroid hair loss is hair transplantation. Tiny hair plugs are removed from the scalp’s back or side and then implanted to bald portions of the scalp. Results can be seen after several months. This procedure is expensive and is not always covered by insurance providers, but can be worth every penny for those suffering from this discouraging condition.



Celebrate Your Failures, every Failure Is A Step Closer To Success…

21 08 2008

Dear friend, have you been trying and failing in every business opportunities that you have tried? Have you bought so many ebooks and still get nowhere…perhaps you have invested and lost money in many ventures, well i have a quote for you from the author of ‘Think and Grow Rich’. He said..

“A man is not whipped until he quits in his own mind”

So you are not finished till you quit. Every failure is a step closer to success. Thomas Edison, the famous inventor tried over 10,000 times before he finally got his desire, the electric bulb. 10,000 failures!! What a great man he was, because he knew that…Quiters Never Win.

Why did i say you should celebrate your failures? Well, if you look around you, 90% of the people don’t fail anymore which also means they never succeed.

These people have given up their future to their bosses and the government to help them with salaries and pention.

They have the so called ‘job security’ so they don’t take any risk. They move up the corporate ladder one step at a time till they retire. They never fail because they don’t take risks.

“Successful people do what unsuccessful people won’t do”

You are planning to shape your financial future. You want to have more control over your life, you want to decide your income, when to go on holidays and what to do with your free time. You take business risks, you invest in opportunities, you work hard and so on.

None of those might be paying off now but if you quit looking then you are whipped. Have you heard the story of the guy that stopped 3 feet from the vein of gold because he could not be bothered to dig anymore?

Don’t quit now. Keep going. When you initially started looking for opportunities you know you can do it but maybe now the self confidence is wearing out. I suggest you make an analysis of yourself to know what business is best for you. Don’t be distrcted by other’s resutls. If someone is making millions the easy way in a business, it does not mean you’ll have the same result doing same business.

You must fall in love with what you do. Heart connection is important. Find something that sets you on fire. Find something that involves your passion. Passion first, then money will come.

Every successful people were faced with temporary defeat but they never quit. Keep going, and don’t quit.

I leave you with last quote from Henry Ford, he said…

“If you think you can or you think you can’t, you are absolutely right.”

See you at the top.

Oh! by the way, the best way to get very very rich in this new century is through network marketing business. So to avoid many unneccessary failures check out what MLM has got to offer you.

Anti Government, Pro Democracy

14 08 2008

Many Americans feel betrayed by their government, our government. I recently met a gentleman at a coffee shop who said he was; Anti-Government and Pro-Democracy. He went into a complete tirade of all the things that are wrong with the government; the typical nightly news events. You know; social security, illegal aliens, over regulation, homosexual marriage, corporate corruption, SPAM, Identity Theft, black-outs, fuel prices; on and on and on. My gosh, I was beginning to actually feel bad that I am an American. I mean all the stuff he mentioned did have a little validity to it. Even though he blew each issue out of proportion completely. I said to him that I am Anti-Hypocrisy and Pro-government. He asked what is the difference?

We got into a lengthy discussion at that point and I explained to him that we are the government and if there was something wrong with it, then in fact he needed to buy a mirror so he could see who is really to blame. He started to get a bit hostile and told me we do not own the government anymore, it is now so large it tries to control every aspect of our lives; he launched into another tirade. This time he talked about; legalizing certain drugs, FCC control of his TV set, Political Correctness in the schools, seat belt and helmet laws, standing in lines at airports, right to shoot someone who tries to steal from you; on and on he went. I mean really another 15-minutes ensued. Patiently taking in all his complaints about the over litigation and trampling of civil rights and freedoms.

We got into another lengthy discussion/debate about whose fault all that might be? In unison this time we said; “look in the mirror.” You see we own the government and if it gets out of control or starts to impede our freedoms, basic civil rights, then look no further as to whom to blame. We all vote? We some of us anyway; Iraq had a better turnout this time around. Our government system is being abused no doubt, by who? By us, that’s who. Every government worker comes from our population; we are not yet in an era of organic robots doing all the work; yet? Every lawmaker comes from the population; we pick em’ they do not pick themselves.

Everyone should be pro-government. If you are anti-government and the government is made up of us. That means you too, don’t try to get out of it; then in fact if you are anti-government you are in fact anti-you. So if you think you suck; well you are right and until you change your opinion, there is nothing much I can do for you. Stop being a hypocrite. Live and let live; develop a little sense of responsibility in that mind of yours. It is a great design and it is a terrible thing to waste. Speak up silent majority. This is your conscious talking. Can you hear me now? Drop the hypocrisy in your own life and vote with what’s left of your mind. If you surrender your mind to the TV set and keep having temper tantrums about the government; then do it in front of a mirror so you can see how silly you look. Thanks for listening and think on this; if you still can; you silly human.

Mini Skirts To Church?

12 08 2008

Have you noticed that many of the new churches today allow their congregation to wear pretty much what ever they want to church? Even some of the pastors wear Hawaiian shirts instead of suits and ties. Some members might arrive wearing jeans with holes in them and flip-flops. Others might be sporting t-shirts with that have controversial statements on them. Would Jesus approve?

I used to attend this church back in my hometown that had an unspoken dress code that didn’t allow the women to wear any long pants to church. Only dresses and skirts that fell far below the knee. The men only wore dress pants and shirts, or suits with a tie. I really liked this church, but I was finding that trying to get ready to go was really tough for me because somehow I could never put together the right clothes! I normally never wore dresses that length so my selection was difficult at times unfortunately, even though I did specifically buy the clothes just to wear to church. Okay I’m not a fashion model or anything, but I just wanted to fit in!

I admit, maybe it seems like not dressing up might somehow be disrespecting the Church and maybe even God himself. I have thought about that, but I really think that there has to be a happy medium somewhere. If you’re going to attend a church, it seems right or should I say “proper” to dress in a way that would be pleasing to Jesus. Imagine him sitting in a pew next to you. Wouldn’t that really bring the appropriate attire issue into perspective? But my theory is as long as you dress respectfully and you are there to learn the good word of God, then it’s what is in your heart that really matters.

Boxer Dogs

9 08 2008

One of the most amazing breeds that one can get is a boxer. The funny thing is that no matter who you are you know what a boxer looks like when you hear it. The boxer dog is a breed that has a fabulous history. Over time the boxer dog has been used as a companion, a guard dog and even a working dog which makes them quite a well rounded breed. The boxer dog is a highly muscular dog with a clean and hard build. This dog breed is very alert, active, strong and agile.

For those of you that live in warmer areas the boxer dog is great with its short, shiny and smooth coat. For those of you with children this may be a fantastic choice of breed as well. A boxer dog is known for its temperament being patient and highly playful making him good to be around children. As for protection the boxer dog is known for its curiosity and fearlessness.

The boxer dog is a highly loyal, very affectionate and extremely dignified dog. I can honestly say when I think of a boxer dog only good traits come to mind. Out of all of the boxer dogs that I have seen it has to be the brindle that catches my eye the most. The other thing that I like about the boxer dog’s appearance is the short snout and large jowls. How could you not fall in love with that right off the bat.

The size of the boxer dog is one that can fit into most people’s lives. Considered a medium dog breed this dog is about two feet high making it a good option for people who have enough room for more than a small breed but not enough for a hulking monster of a breed. Yes, the boxer dog is elegant and beautiful and should be given a look when in the market for a new dog or puppy.
