  5. Damascus Khukri??????? Just carbon steel to start with . At least you remembered. Merry Christmas Matt.
  6. Had this problem with an ESS, there are a number of different operations available, all differing in cost, but most are based on having a plastic ring inserted into the joint to keep the thigh and lower leg together. My ESS still works for short periods but his leg is not the same. The standing jump is very bad on Cruciates - the sudden and explosive contraction and then expansion of those muscles in the back legs, can easily rupture the ligaments.

  20. Hunter, At the risk of repeating myself, you have a difficult task before you and use all means, treat & praise, to keep the bitch compliant. Obedience is about conditioning the dog to obey without thinking, that's why consistency is so important. EVERY time the dog is given a command, it must comply. When it doesn't, it is immediately taken back to where it disobeyed and made to obey - even if you have to repeat it 100 times! Training a puppy is easier than in your case, because it is a blank canvas. You present job is to undo the bad habits and then impose discipline. Is there
  21. Desperate times deserve desperate measures. The reasoning behind the suggestion of a rabbit pen is that 1) it is enclosed and secure, 2) There would be immediate distractions for the young bitch and an ideal opportunity to obtain compliance. I said that training is not rocket science but I suppose to some it is.

That is why, in my view, it is a mistake to commence formal training of a pup too early in it's life. Forget electric fences and any ideas of electric collars. Find yourself a secure area, is
