YOUR DOG’S BAD HABITS

and how to break them

BARKING AT THE DOORBELLDogs bark at the door-bell for any number of reasons. They could be excited or anxious about visitors, or they might bark as a watchdog tendency. Some dogs even equate their barking with you opening the door, so they think they're training you to open the door when they bark. One of the best ways to stop barking at the doorbell is to teach and reward an alternative behavior, like sitting on a nearby mat and waiting for the door to be opened.

STEALING FOOD OFF COUNTERSTrainers call this bad behavior “counter-surfing.” It’s one of the more difficult habits to break, since Fido experiences a huge reward for stealing the food: He gets to eat it! The easiest way to solve this problem is to eliminate the opportunity. Don’t leave food around, and use baby gates or fencing to restrict your dog’s access to the kitchen when you’re not there to supervise him. Teaching the “leave it” command is useful for when you catch him in the act of stealing snacks.

BARKING IN THE CARThose shrill yaps from the back-seat can be your dog expressing many emotions, from fear and frustration to exuberant joy. The best way to address barking in the car is to employ restraint equip-ment, like a harness or a crate to help your pet feel more secure. Other options include using a pheromone spray to help relax your dog, or giving him a chew toy to focus on during the car ride.

CHEWING INAPPROPRIATE OBJECTSChewing is a natural behavior for dogs, since they explore their environment with their mouth. It also relieves stress and boredom, and helps keep their teeth clean. When you catch your dog chewing inappropriate objects (like shoes, as many dogs do), redirect the chewing to an appropriate item, like a chew toy or stuffed Kong. Then praise your pup for selecting an acceptable outlet for his chewing behavior.

Source: www.vetstreet.com

BEGGING AT THE TABLENo matter how cute or desperate for food your dog looks, consistency is the key to curbing dinner-table begging. Even if his begging only

works once in a blue moon, he’ll repeat and escalate the behavior until all his barking and whining pays off with a rare food reward. Instead of giving in, provide your dog with an appropriate dinner-time activity, like enjoying his own toys or food puzzles.

URINE MARKING INSIDE THE HOUSEDogs pee on things to mark territory or leave messages for canine friends, which is gener-ally acceptable outdoors. If you catch your dog urine marking (or even preparing to mark) inside the house, quickly interrupt him with a “no” or an “oops” and take him outside. Then reward and praise him for choosing to urinate outdoors. To prevent frequent urination in the same household spot, remove the scent of previous urine marks with a good enzymatic cleaner.

DIGGING IN THE YARDDigging is an extremely reward-ing activity for dogs, whether they’re digging to reach a scent or simply to release pent-up en-ergy. Help your dog practice this behavior appropriately by giving him a sandbox or section of the yard where he’s allowed to dig. Make sure this area has clearly marked visual boundaries, and use treats and toys to make this new digging place more exciting than the old one.

Q: I have a ‘08 Nissan Setra. I just got new front brake pads and rotors. When coming to a stop it

hesitates like the brakes are slipping. I also noticed when I press the gas and let go of pedal, the car feels like it brakes on its own a little. - Joey

Joey, this sounds like you may be dealing with a cracked tone ring on an axle shaft at one of your wheels

for the anti lock speed sensor. However, if the speed sensor is internal to the wheel bearing, then you would have to replace the hub/bearing as an assembly. Other things to look for are fractured or rubbed through wires near the wheels. In most cases, if the problem, it is not visible. You will need to have it checked with a lab scope to be able to determine the cause so that you do not replace costly parts only to find it does not correct what you are experiencing.

HOT LINE CONTINUED

THESE GLOBAL WARMING folks never cease to amaze with their backtracking and redefinitions. Lately, it’s been CO2 causing warming. So-called high levels of CO2 the last 20 years and no aver-age warming has been observed. CO2 is 1½ times heavier than air and hugs the ground and dissipates into it.

THE MAY 5 vote, if passed, will replace the current gas tax with a percentage, a wholesale gas tax adjusted annually for inflation. Both the overall tax and the differ-ence will increase as gas prices increase.

A ‘NO’ VOTE on May 5 will give our leg-islators a second chance to find alternate solutions to fund Michigan roads without raising taxes.

AM I READING the Streetscape plan cor-rectly? All of the parallel parking downtown is going to be turned into runway-sized side-walks? The traffic is already bad enough! Make the sidewalk we have nicer first!

WOULD SOMEONE ASK Israel’s PM that if he feels so threatened and that the world is in such grave danger from Iran then why are they helping fight ISIS? Also, remind him that it was an Israel arms broker that sold them weapons for President Reagan.

Brick veneer gives a look of substance to the Ryland. Decorative supports highlight gable peaks and eaves, while raised brick trim accentuates the graceful curves of the arched entry and window openings. This hand-some ranch home could easily be adapted for wheel-chair accessibility. Vaulted ceilings increase the sense of spaciousness in the foyer, den, living room and nook. Soft light spills into the foyer through a sidelight and transom window. Double doors on the left open into a den, which could be used as a home office or a fourth bedroom, if needed.

SUNDAY SCRAMBLERUnscramble the letters within each rectangle to form four ordinary words.

Then rearrange the boxed letters to form the mystery word, which will complete the gag!

Cohabiting couple need to negotiate housing expensesDEAR AMY: My boyfriend and I have been together for almost two years. He moved into my house a few months ago. He pays $600 a month to help with our expenses, but I would like for him to pay half (about $900). I told him our arrangement was not fair, and he responded that he would pay half of our expenses if he owned half my house. That was where the conversation ended. I am absolutely not willing to add him to the house deed unless we are married. I know that if we ever get married, he would own half of my house and half of the equity that I began establishing years before I met him. If he is serious about me and our relationship, is it unreasonable to expect him to pay half of the mortgage and utilities now? And if he is not paying for half, should I be expected to give him half of what I’ve established by myself? I want to be a team player, but I also want a mate who will be my

equal if he is financially able. I feel like the little red hen. No one wants to help me make bread, but everyone wants

a piece of it when it’s already made. — Little Red Hen

DEAR HEN: Your boyfriend should pay the market amount for rent (check local comparables). As it is, you derive the benefits of ownership; he believes if he contributes equally, he should also benefit equally. Don’t cave to his pressure. Adding his name to the deed would have major legal and financial

consequences. For instance, you could not refinance, sell or make changes without him signing off on it. If he wants to be a co-owner, he should offer to purchase (not be given) half the house at its current market value. You two would benefit from going through the process of getting a prenup, whether or not you decide to get married. You will emerge with transparency and insight together — or you will break under the weight of the negotiation.

THE CAPTIVEMatthew steps briefly into a diner and comes out to find that his young daughter Cassandra has vanished without a trace from the back of his truck. Her unsolved abduction destroys Matthew’s once-happy relationship with

his wife, Tina, who, haunted by mementos of Cassandra that appear mysteriously at her work, suspects her husband of foul play. Years later, when detectives Nicole and Jef-frey discover recent images of Cassandra online, Matthew risks everything to ensure his daughter’s safe return-and to save him-self and Tina from the limbo of unrelenting despair. R, 1 hr. 52 min

FOXCATCHERSteve Carell steps into dramatic territory with this docudrama about John du Pont, the schizo-phrenic millionaire who infamously shot and killed his friend and Olympic gold-medal wrestler Dave Schultz before locking

himself in his mansion as police officers negotiated his surrender for two days. MONEYBALL’s Bennett Miller directed from a script by E. Max Frye and Dan Fut-terman. R, 2 hr. 10 min

Eyeglasses cause skin to blisterDR. ROACH: I recently purchased two new pairs of prescription eyeglasses that are in plastic frames. Forty-eight hours after I began wearing the first pair, the bridge of my nose became very red, and small, flat blisters appeared. The same behind both ears — anywhere the plastic touched my skin. I got this to heal with cortisone cream, and a week later I tried the other pair. This time, the reaction came within about 14 hours and involved swelling of my nose as well as the blistering and bright redness. What causes this — an allergy or some sort of chemical burn? The area itched yet felt like a burn and peeled after the cortisone treatment brought the blistering down. — N.W.

ANSWER: This sounds like a case of contact dermatitis, probably related to the chemicals used in the manufacturing of the plastic. Some people are just sensitive to any of the many chemicals used; however, I am increasingly seeing bad reactions to manufactured goods, especially to those made overseas. Not

every country has the same safeguards we have in place in North America. Some of these chemicals are volatile and disappear after a short while. It’s possible that washing the glasses in hot, soapy water could have been able to remove them. However, in your case, the reaction was so strong that I would avoid that brand in the future.

2. Next, stir in the tomato paste, water, vinegar, sugar, maple syrup and beans and bring to a boil.

3. Reduce heat to a low simmer, cover the pot and cook for 1-1½ hours; stirring occasionally until the sauce has thickened.Recipe from carriesexperimentalkitchen.com
