			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey ya&#8217;ll! Its time! Its time to really start thinking about taking the plunge and adopting a pet!  With our community going through such a huge economic decline, we all know that houses are being foreclosed on and that pets are being left behind.  This post goes out there to those people who aren&#8217;t necessarily looking for a puppy, and have a big back yard and are open to older pets!  Please, please, adopt before going to a breeder! There are so many avenues you can go through to adopt a local pet, such as the pound, the spca, and local rescue groups!  If you are interested, please contact me and I will give you any details that you need! Foreclosed pets are pets too!!!!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Come on, we don&#8217;t still believe that old line, right?! Thats right there along with &#8220;we walked uphill both ways in a snowstorm without shoes!&#8221;  Of course, you can&#8217;t change your dogs personality, but at any age you can teach your pet how to react to certain situations that may seem threatening to them, and you can also teach your pet to adapt to a new routine.  Ruby, my new adult pet, had a totally different routine with her old owner, compared to her new routine with me.  Since I don&#8217;t really know what the key words for her to go potty were, or if her owner had her do any tricks before she got a treat, I just had to start anew. And guess what, she&#8217;s adapting!  I have already gotten her used to sitting for a treat, and she already goes potty in a designated area in our back yard.  Since she has never been in our backyard, I would say its pretty awesome that in less than a week she knows exactly where to go, and sits patiently to receive a treat after doing so (to <a class="zem_slink" title="Reinforcement" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reinforcement">reinforce</a> that positive <a class="zem_slink" title="Ethology" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethology">behavior</a> that we are learning!)  If your pet displays a problematic behavior that you just feel will <em>never </em>be fixed, think again!  All you need is patience, and  a <a class="zem_slink" title="Athletic shoe" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Athletic_shoe">trainer</a> to teach you how to interact with your pet in such a way to illicit this new behavior you are seeking.</p>
