Shih Tzu dogs are highly intelligent creatures and many pet owners do not give them enough credit when it comes to the way they can read and understand our body language. Some people have no idea that the body language that we display has a major impact on how well a Shih Tzu dog will listen to us and obey our commands. Using the correct form of body language can also quickly stop your Shih Tzu dog from displaying an improper behavior. Let's use a very common example, such as the overexcited Shih Tzu dog who likes to jump on every guest that comes to your door.

TRAINING AREA FOR PIT BULLS FOUND - Concealed in a wooded area off a dead end street on the east side of Pine Bluff, police and animal control officers discovered what appeared to be a fully operational training ground for pit bulldogs Thursday morning. Director of Animal Control DeLoyd Cleveland said the find, in the woods beside 4201 Texas St., was made almost by accident.
"We were in the area of looking for a stray dog and when we pulled into the driveway of the house to turn around, we saw a pit bulldog come out of the woods," he said. 'We followed the dog into the woods and when we got a little way in, we could hear all that barking and saw the dogs staked out in the woods."
After obtaining a search warrant, animal control officers and police returned to the area Thursday to seize the dogs, who were being kept in violation of a city ordinance that regulates pit bulldogs, as well as another ordinance that limits the number of animals that can be kept in the city limits.

Dog Obedience Issues or Bored Dog? - Dogs, especially younger dogs, need something to do. If you don't provide it, they'll find it. Chewing shoes and digging in the garbage are fun when there's nothing else to do. Everyone knows that! Often, taking your dog outside for a run or a rousing game of frisbee will burn up that excess energy and solve your dog obedience issues, but what if you can't get outside? What if it's too darn cold and icy out there? You don't need to break a leg! For simple and enjoyable exercise inside the house, teach your dog to jump! I have a set of standards made from PVC pipe that can be taken apart for storage. But you don't even need that.
