[simpleaffiliate source="chitika" results="0"][/simpleaffiliate] Is it safe to train chihuahuas to use the doggy door when left alone during the day?
I live in Avondale, AZ which is a suburb of Phoenix, it is an area that is surrounded by other home developments and farms. I am thinking about getting a chihuahua, however, I work full time and do not have the luxury to come home during the day. Therefore, I would like the dog to use the doggy door instead of using puppy pads or what not in the house. My yard is completely enclosed with 7ft brick walls with a equally tall wooden gate. The yard is maintained and Arizona's winters are short and mild (so that can be flexible).
If you're getting a puppy i would not recommend it as you might not know if the puppy ate something he shouldn't outside(he might be sick, I've been there and the vet bill is not good) and since cihuahua are small(even as adults) there are birds and other animals out there that might see your puppy as a delicious meal. hope this helps, best of luck

Phoenix Dog Training: Understanding Dog Aggression and Aggressive Dogs
Treating Severe Dog Aggression
Part I: Understanding Your Dog With Aggression
READ THIS BEFORE EUTHANIZING YOUR DOG
Figure 1 Severe Dog Aggression Training Solutions
By: Bill Glatzel, M.S. Animal Behaviorist ,
FACT: 95% of aggression can be managed and controlled, yet over 80% of dogs reported to have severe aggression die each year and are euthanize because of lack of training or the wrong kind of training.
Most Veterinarians, and most Dog Trainers, are well intentioned, but don't have a clue how to deal with aggression effectively. The first thing that needs to be said is aggression is very serious. No one should ever attempt to deal with aggression without the help of an experienced and professional dog trainer who specializes in aggression. Two things usually happen. The dog gets put to death, or a poor attempt is made to fix the problem with someone or some dogs getting hurt, in some cases very seriously hurt.
Q: Do I need a Dog Trainer, an Animal Behaviorist, a Veterinarian, or Someone who specializes in Behavioral Medicine?
A: It is best to consult with an Animal Behaviorist who specializes in Behavioral Medicine and one who works with many Veterinarians' who have a good understanding of many complicated medical factors that typically involve neurochemical, hormonal, metabolic, and genetic factors, and sometimes dietary and nutritional components as well.

Q: I've always been told I should go see my vet first. Why is this not correct?
A: Probably not alone. Most dog trainers teach basic obedience commands like sit, stay, come. They may also help with basic manners, stop jumping, and stop barking, potty training. But when it comes to severe aggression, this is not basic manners; this is not just about training. The best person to help you is an Animal Behaviorist that is also a trainer and one who specializes in Behavioral Medicine. Most dog trainers often can't deal with severe aggression and tell you to put the dog down, or they make the dog more aggressive because they don't understand canine behavior from a multifaceted approach and perspective. Anyone can call themselves a dog trainer. There are no standards, no licensing, and no qualification requirements. On the other hand an Animal Behaviorist has earned either a Masters Degree or a PhD, from an accredited college or university and has extensive education in animal behavior along with real field work and research. An Animal Behaviorist is a Behavioral Scientist. Many dog trainers may mean well and be very well intentioned, but they ethically should except their limitations in training, education and experience, and refer you to an Animal Behaviorist.
Q: Isn't aggression in dogs kind of normal? Aren't they predators by nature?
A: NO. Aggression in dogs is abnormal. Most all dogs are not aggressive; most all dogs do not bite. Most severe aggression is a combination of unwanted learned behavior, genetics, neurochemical imbalance, hormonal imbalance, metabolic deficiencies, and also possible diet and nutritional factors. There are other medical factors that can be implicated in a causative factor in aggression such as diabetes, encephalitis, seizure disorders, spinal cord and brain injuries, head trauma, these are just to name a few.
Q: I watch Cesar Milan on the "Dog Whisperer." Can't I do what he does and fix my dogs aggression?
Figure 3 Dog Bite Prevention with Kids
A: Cesar has been bit many times; he also always recommends you hire a professional. Cesar admits he is not a behaviorist. Most Animal Behaviorists disagree with many of his methods and consider them to be of more hurt and danger to the dog that real help. We don't recommend his training methods for severe behavioral problems like aggression and anxiety.
TLC K9 ACADEMY is known Nationwide as the premier Aggression experts and Off-LeashObedience specialists. Their approach to aggression may be a bit different, but the fact is it works! TLC K9 ACADEMY saves the lives of many extremely aggressive dogs when other trainers/behaviorists and Veterinarians offer no hope but to euthanize and put to death the dog, someone's beloved pet and companion. Our goal is to manage the dog's aggression and manage the space of the dog so to prevent aggression. All aggression is because of a "real" or "perceived" threat. It is important to evaluate if the threat is real or not. A reaction that manifests itself in aggression may be very real. In some of these instances, we need to evaluate if the response of aggression is appropriate or not. If a person is attempting to hurt you or your dog, an aggressive response by your dog may be very appropriate and welcomed by you in this type of situation. However, having family guests over for the holidays and having your dog tear into uncle Ted just because he sits on the couch in your living room is very inappropriate and unwelcomed. Next in Part II; First Steps to Managing Aggression.

Feedback & Overview
Actual Customer Feedback:
“Following the H & S pattern I showed you a couple of days ago, I rode the euro up for over a 100+ pips gain. But then it stalled and last night I saw a negative divergence of MACD on the 1hr chart and shorted it at 1.2266 and so far I am up about 60+ pips. Your course is amazing and so much simpler than the so called 4xmade****. Can't thank you enough Peter. Keep up the good work.” Max O., Phoenix, AZ
I am quite literally astounded at your accuracy of predictions day after day of receiving your daily news letter. I almost feel I should be paying you for it. I have already done well this month simply because I had the guts to listen to you and know your predictions are usually right on. I have a tiny little account I play with that is only $200.00 but it is fun and hopefully will grow over time. I am in no hurry. Down the road a bit I think I will open up a larger account and trade with you full-time. After all you can't knock success and proof is in my trading. I don't know where you get your info on the commercial traders (big dogs) but do keep up the good work. Marc Abramsky
