Couple all rewards with verbal praise and your dog will soon form a positive association with the sound of your praise. Dominance-Based Training is Disrespectful to Your Dog But that’s all about wolves anyway, not dogs. For these reasons, electronic collars are now totally safe and humane.

In general: •Male dogs tend to be “lovable slobs” and “good ol’ boys” •Male dogs tend to be more outgoing, more vigorously affectionate, more “in your face” •Male dogs tend to be more stable and reliable in mood and less prone to emotional swings •Young Male dogs tend to be clumsy and silly and prone to acting like oversized kids. •Male dogs mean well and are easy to love •Female dogs tend to be more subtle than males and tend to be affectionate on their own terms. They’ll request or demand petting, then reassert their independence by walking away when they have had enough. •Female dogs tend to be quicker to learn and are not as easily distracted during training sessions. •Female dogs are less likely to be openly defiant or to engage in blunt power struggles or dominance challenges, yet they can be clever, passively resistant and manipulative about getting their own way. •Female dogs are prone to mood swings and emotional theatrics. •Female dogs are experts at “The Dirty Look” and “The Sulk” •Male Greater Swiss Mountain Dogs are typically slower to mature and require a strong, steady hand along with patience through their juvenile stages. •Male Greater Swiss Mountain Dogs require hormones to achieve their distinctly masculine look. I recommend neutering between 15 and 18 months of age and strongly discourage earlier sterilization. Neutering does not solve behavoir problems, training does. •Male Greater Swiss Mountain Dogs average between 110 and 135 lbs and range from 25 ½ and 28 ½ inches tall at the shoulder, though it is possible to see some that are a bit smaller and some that are a bit larger. The size they are as a puppy gives no indication of their mature size. They are considerably taller if you were to measure to the top of their head. Certainly, most male Swissys can easily reach the tops of tables and kitchen counters. •Female Greater Swiss Mountain Dogs are typically faster to mature and quicker to housetrain (though bladder control is still much slower to acheive than other breeds), but no young Swissy should be left unattended without being safely confined to a crate. •Female Greater Swiss Mountain Dogs are distinctly feminine in appearance when compared to males. •Female Greater Swiss Mountain Dogs average between 85 and 105 lbs and range from 23 1/2 and 27 inches tall at the shoulder, though they too can be smaller or larger. They too will remove food from kitchen counters. •Female Greater Swiss Mountain Dogs should go through a heat cycle before they are spayed and should not be spayed before the age of 15 months and are 100% housetrained. Urinary incontinence is a serious potential issue in the Greater Swiss Mountain Dog and no Swissy female should be spayed early. The incidence of mammary tumors is very low in Swissys, but the incidence of urinary incontinence is high compared to other breeds. Waiting to spay far outweighs drastically improves the odds of avoiding urinary incontinence as the Female Swissy matures.Over and over again the dog would suddenly start barking at someone and I would hear people say, "Oh that dog was abused." Never did I see anyone communicate to the dog that her barking and circling was an unwanted reaction.

Our dog changed so much within that one day, and it has been amazing to see his progress from that point. The only exposure he got was to Jefferson's sweet hunting dog and literally all we did was spend 15-20 minutes outside my apartment in the outer sunset walking past Jefferson's dog, which wasn't working because as he started to pull, we were to zap him repeatedly with the e-collar on and he would attack us.
