I've never understood this- why do some dogs automatically think to jump up onto something when a human pats their hand on the object?

Why do people automatically assume the dog will do it (some dogs do not)? Why do we "pat the seat" to entice a dog to sit in a certain spot?

I know caffeen is bad for dogs, but my dog loves the smell of coffee. She goes nuts when I come home with a cup of Dunkin!! I was wondering if it would be a problem if I baked her some plain dog cookies using a cup or so of decaffinated coffee in place of water? I guess the overall amount would be on cup of decaffinated coffee split up amongst 40 - 50 cookies. Thanks!

I dont really have any time to exercise because I am have so much work this year in school that I am constantly doing work or studying for a test. I recently lost 20 pounds, and now I feel like I'm starting to gain it back, but I have ZERO time to exercise. Does anyone know any diets that will work fast and help me loose another twenty pounds in around two months??

My roomate and I both just got dogs. I got mine, a blue heeler, about a week or two before he got his yellow lab. My blue heeler went after his dog right away but seemed to calm down that night. We went to bed, my dog escaped my makeshift pen and when I woke up they were both hanging out downstairs no problem. They are usually ok with each other but when I bring my dog in from a walk he always goes berzerk. It happens every single time that when he comes in he goes right after the lab. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
The first couple times the lab was right at the door and I attributed it to the surprise. The last few though he's been visible but on the other side of the house.

I've seen people go on diets and very very few work. But when I see someone come out of boot camp, whether 6, 8, 9, or 12 weeks they always come out more healthy than they did before. Is it true that boot camp is the best way to get into shape….and I know boot camp is supposed to get you ready for the real thing, just give me an honest answer.

Dog fighting is becoming more of a hot button issue. Dogs are virtually innocent creatures that should serve as a companion. Oftentimes they are used as an assistant in the recreational killing of other animals. Fighting dogs and roosters is no longer an acceptable form of entertainment. Why do people accept the killing of game for purposes other than food and warmth? How can a group of armed men chasing animals be considered a sport?
