While Training Your Pet

Adopting a furry pal is always an exciting thought but with that comes along the worry of training your pet, and to be honest that is not a very good a part to think about. There are number of audio books, guides and articles available in the market about training your pet, than you would have ever think but to be honest the advice in few of those books simply turn out to be impractical sometimes. Some of them are unnecessary and then there are few, which are quite sensible and work like a charm.

This surely does not means that every advice you come across to train your pet is just crappy, its just that a lot of what works and what doesn't work depends on the individual pet — on its personality and smartness.

The central idea is that the transition from a new pet to a trained pet should be accomplished in a series of stages. Start the procedure with a small change and then give your pet time to adjust before you make another small change.

If at any time your pet gives the whole thing up and goes back to the first day, you are pushing him too far too fast; its time to back up a stage or two. Give it a rest and then try again, more slowly this time.

In the following instructions, I have used the word "rest" that mean: “do nothing for a period of between a day and a week, depending on how flappable your pet is.”

How Good is Your Pet at Decision Making?

Choosing is one of the basic signs of intellect and self-perseverance. This sense does not only exist in humans but in pets as well. Do you know how good is your pet at decision making?

The ability of decision-making varies in animals. Rats are the smartest of all, when it comes to decision-making. According to one of the reports posted on yahoo news, rats are as good at decision-making as humans. The news says:

“Comparing the rats to humans who were given similar tests, they found that both groups made decisions that were in line with the "statistically optimal" curve -- in other words, the best way possible.” Source: Yahoonews

The degree of the ability of decision-making can actually help you decide how active your pet is! The more active it is the healthier it will stay. So if your dog, cat or other furry pal is not that active, its time for you to work for it and train them. You can even take help of Phoenix pet sitters at The Animals Kingdom.
