The Most Creative Way of Feeding a Puppy

July 6, 2010 by admin  
Filed under Videos

This is my siberian husky dog and her newborn baby. Strangely, she only gave birth to one puppy. Her baby is the most ferocious milk sucking puppy you’ve ever seem. He is sucking his mother’s milk 24/7 non-stop and since he is the only puppy he gets all the milk. My dog is not dead, she is just too tire from all the feeding and simply passing out…hence the ferocious milk sucking baby you’ve ever seem. :)

The Single Most Important Aspect Of Your Career

January 25, 2010 by admin  
Filed under Articles

Do you want to get a promotion and make a lot more money? Do you want to be recognized for your hard work? Do you want to keep your job and not be downsized? In fact, do you want to know the secret to be Upsized? The most important skill you will ever learn is how to study and understand Office Politics.

Office politics plays a very important role in whether you get a promotion, an award, the job that you want, or the compensation that you receive. Virtually every aspect of your professional career is influenced by social politics. The proper understanding of the social ?food chain? in your work space is essential for your professional success and financial well-being.

To understand why the organization works and how to use that information to your advantage, you must first understand how the ?Big Fish? act and think. Who are the ?Big Fish?? They are the decision makers, the people who are up-and-coming in the company and the people who hold ultimate power in the company. These are the CEO?s, Presidents, VPs, managers, and supervisors who are what I consider to be ?in favor?.

When it comes to these ?Big Fish? they typically care only about two things. The first is how they can take credit for increasing the effectiveness of the company and the second is who around them can get the results they need to be successful. To summarize, for these people it is all about self-preservation and self-promotion.

Are the ?Big Fish? unethical or self-absorbed? No, the successful people just want excellent employees working for them and they expect results. If you were in a dog-sled race would you want a team of Siberian Huskies or Chihuahuas? The answer is obvious; you would want to win the race so you would want the best team available.

Can this information be helpful to you? Let me ask you:

1. Do you think you stand a better chance of getting a promotion working for a ?little fish? or a ?Big Fish??

2. Is your chance of getting a good raise better or worse if the VP knows your name and the projects you have worked on?

3. Are you more or less likely to move up in the company if you are working on a ?Big Fish?s? pet project?

The bottom line is this?If you align yourself with a ?Big Fish? you will be considered for more opportunities than you would ever have working for a ?little fish?. Why? The reason is because people trust people who can get the job done. If the ?Big Fish? trusts you then he/she will be comfortable giving you more and more responsibility. And with more responsibility comes promotions and A LOT more money.

Study your office politics and align yourself with a ?Big Fish? and will progress your career farther and faster than you ever could have imagined.

The Most Important Marketing Principle

January 20, 2010 by admin  
Filed under Articles

Several times people have asked me what the most important marketing principle was. What is the one thing you absolutely have to know in order to attract more clients?

Is it your marketing message or powerful marketing materials? Is it the ability to persuasively speak about your services? Perhaps it’s a killer marketing tactic that I keep under wraps. Or is it more a matter of persistence and commitment?

Well, all of those are very important. But there is one marketing idea that is the most important of all.

It might be exemplified best in this story I heard years ago.

Two friends were talking about another friend who was a great fisherman. They related stories about how he always caught more fish than everyone else, yet he didn’t really do anything different than other fishermen did.

He used a similar boat, the same fishing rods and lures. He fished in the same places and at the same times of day. So why in the heck did he always catch more fish? What was his secret?

Well, his secret was pretty simple: He loved fishing.

If you love what you do, you’ll always be better at it. You’ll find subtle ways to do things that others wouldn’t even think of. You’ll read more about it. You’ll put your heart and soul into it.

So when it comes to marketing your services, I promise that you’ll get better results if you love marketing yourself. But how do you do that? What if you don’t like marketing at all?

Let me tell you another story.

I once worked with a writer who needed to market herself. But the first time we met, she told me she hated networking and wouldn’t call people she didn’t know.

So I asked her what she did love.

She told me that she loved her Siberian Husky, Mutombo. She was nuts about that dog and talked my ear off for about half an hour. Then she said, rather sheepishly, “I’ve been thinking of sending out mailings to prospects with pictures of Mutombo on them. What do you think?”

Well, on the surface, it didn’t seem like a great idea. But what was clear was the love she had for that dog and the enthusiasm she had for the idea. So I said, “Why not?”

She worked with her husband, who was a photographer, to create a series of very innovative mailing pieces that featured Mutombo. She then tied the pictures into themes about corporate writing.

Yes, it sounds like a stretch, but the mailings were an amazing success. They were fun, attention-getting and different. People started calling her. And she generated some very big clients with this wacky idea of putting her dog on her mailings.

She was doing what she loved. She found a marketing approach that she could really get into. And it was a huge success.

So what do you love? What would you enjoy doing? What could you put your heart and soul into?

In my Fast Track Marketing Model, I point out that there are essentially three effective marketing strategies or vehicles for Independent Professionals: Networking, Publishing and Speaking. But there are infinite variations on these three. My client used a form of publishing through direct mail.

When I started my business, I started with networking. But my style is to be an initiator, not just a participant. So I started my own networking groups. I met a lot of people and I loved bringing people together. So this was very successful.

Only a month or two after buying my first Macintosh, I created a monthly newsletter. I also happened to love design and project-oriented things. So I had a lot of fun with this, and also had very good results. The newsletter also pulled people into the networking events.

Finally, at these events, I had the opportunity to make presentations and discovered that I loved to be in the front of a group. (I think I’m a frustrated stand-up comedian at heart.) It turned out that speaking was the most effective marketing tactic of all for me.

I was lucky. I found three areas of marketing that I loved. But the key was that I found my particular way of doing these marketing activities that fit with my style and personality. Over the years I’ve adapted these tactics to the online world through this eZine and introductory teleclasses.

And you can do this as well.

Don’t worry about three strategies to start. Find one. And don’t fall for some hyped-up marketing strategy that you read about on the Internet that promises to make you kazillions of dollars. Trust me. It won’t. (Unless you love it.)

Find some aspect of networking, publishing or speaking that you can make your own, where you can express your authentic self, that you can have fun at, and you’ll get better results than you could possibly imagine.

THE TOP TEN MOST INTELLIGENT DOGS – How Intelligent are dogs and wolves? What breeds are the smartest dogs today?

December 2, 2009 by admin  
Filed under Articles

1. “Left for the wolves.”

In the late Spring of 1902, Constable Richard Morris, of the North-West Mounted Police, reported an incident dealing with the native Cree Indians and their dogs. Stationed in a community north of Lake Winnipeg, he noticed that a number of dogs had been staked out in the forest. Each one was left alone and fastened to an iron stake by a chain. When he asked the reason for this, the Crees told him that the dogs were “left for the wolves.”

When Constable Morris objected to this treatment, the Crees explained that the dogs wouldn’t be harmed by the wolves. The dogs — Ungava huskies — were females in heat. Male wolves without mates of their own would be attracted to the females and mate with them, resulting in cross-bred puppies with “wolfblood.”

Morris said, “Oh, I see. This is so your sled-dogs will be bigger and stronger.”

“No,” said one Cree. “A wolf can outrace our dogs in a quick dash — but our huskies have much more stamina than wolves and can easily outlast them in a long run. Wolves make poor work dogs.”

“Then,” concluded Morris, “it’s because wolves are healthier.”

“No. They are the same.”

“Then — why?” asked the Mountie.

“Up here,” replied the Indian, tapping his forehead.

Father LeBeaux, an Oblate Missionary, later explained, “The Cree people believe that when an animal becomes domesticated, each generation loses in intelligence. That’s why wolves are more intelligent than dogs. The Indians say, ‘The closer to the wolf, the smarter the dog.’ If it is true of domesticated animals, what does that say of civilized man, eh?”

 

 

2. “How intelligent are they?”

Our ancestors might have asked this 15,000 years ago when they played with their adopted wolf or jackal pups — the first dogs.

Even the ancient Egyptians asked that question, and studied their own dogs to answer it.

The first modern attempt was by Rene Descartes, who only went one step beyond the cloudy thinking of his time, saying all animals were just soulless biological machines. Descartes set up the narrow, human-centered theory of behaviorism that would dominate until well into the 20th Century.

For decades, behaviorists put animals — including dogs — through sterile tests in sterile labs, looking for mechanical results that proved worthless.

In the middle of this muddle came one sane voice: Donald Griffin, professor of biology at Rockefeller University, who said, “Behaviorism should be abandoned not so much because it belittles the value of living animals, but because it leads to a serious incomplete and hence misleading picture of reality.”

In 1953, Konrad Lorenz’s MAN MEETS DOG created an instant classic about canine intelligence. Written with humor, wisdom and great insight, the German Nobel Laureate almost single-handedly recreated our methods of exploring animal behavior.

In his ground-breaking 1994 book THE INTELLIGENCE OF DOGS — CANINE CONSCIOUSNESS AND CAPABILITIES, Canadian Stanley Coren, psychologist, dog trainer, “and avowed dog lover,” presented his controversial Ranking of Dogs for Obedience and Working Intelligence.

Coren ranked 133 breeds, from #1 on… The reaction was predictable: “The Poodle? He ranked a POODLE above my Belgian sheepdog?” “Come on! My Samoyed is smarter than any Australian Cattle Dog!” “No Papillon can out-think my Lassie.” “OK, maybe a Poodle is intelligent –but…”

“Controversial” doesn’t begin to describe the reaction to “Coren’s Ranking.”

But his observations have proven to be pretty accurate. Coren was testing, of course, pure breeds. The “purebred” Siberian husky, for instance, isn’t as quick-witted as the native husky of northern Siberia. This is even more true of the Alaskan malamute. We deliberately breed out some of the “wolfishness” in our pets.

 

 

3. “Never Cry Wolf!”

In 1963, Farley Mowat’s NEVER CRY WOLF appeared on the bookshelves. Described as “an intimate casebook in wolf sociology,” Mowat described how, as a biologist employed by the Canadian Wildlife Service, he had spent a summer on his own, studying a pack of Arctic wolves. The book sparked an avid interest in wolf research that has never dimmed.

IN PRAISE OF WOLVES and SECRET GO THE WOLVES described R D Lawrence’s close experiences with wolves in Canada. DANCE OF THE WOLVES by Roger Peters describes his three winters in the forests of northern Michigan. These and others have shown us the remarkable lives and intelligence of the wolf.

R D Lawrence wrote: “Reality, particularly in the case of wolves, means that these animals have keen intelligence, excellent memory, and demonstrable capacity of conscious thought. When Shawano fed his pack before keeping a piece of chicken for himself, he demonstrated not only that he could profit from experience in a profitable way, but that other wolves could do so as well.

“This demonstration is alone sufficient to discredit the mechanistic theory which contends that evolution, by means of hereditary imprinting, has led to the thoughtless or automatic responses of animals to any one of an enormously wide variety of natural stimuli…

“Memory, by allowing an animal to benefit from experience, plays an important role in the formulation of conscious decisions; the better its memory, the better able will the animal be to adapt to a changing environment.”

It’s the wolf’s intelligence, as well as its loyalty and great heart that caused our ancient Northern ancestors to bring the wolf into their families, or to interbreed their existing dogs (probably of ancient jackal ancestry) with wolves.

Today, we mingle with wolves, in sanctuary and in the wild.

And fictional works, from Jack London’s THE CALL OF THE WILD to the latest movie EIGHT BELOW have celebrated the wild wolf dog in Literature and in Hollywood.

 

 

“THE TOP 10 MOST INTELLIGENT DOGS!”

What, then are the smartest breeds?

Taking in the conclusions of dog trainers, psychologists and researchers, as well as those who work with dogs in life and death situations, such as police, search & rescuers, and wilderness inhabitants — and balancing the Cree wisdom: “the closer to the wolf, the smarter the dog!” with ongoing research into the evolution of dogs (remember, the earliest dogs were probably adopted jackal pups), here are the TEN MOST INTELLIGENT DOGS:

1. Ungava Husky, or Wolf Dog

2. German Shepherd

3. Golden Retriever

4. Labrador Retriever

5. Border Collie

6. Poodle

7. Doberman Pinscher

8. Papillon

9. Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever

10. Alaskan Malamute

 

If your dog is not on this list, you can be sure it’s #11!

Dog Breed – Which One Is The Most Popular

December 1, 2009 by admin  
Filed under Articles

Since the domestication of the dogs (roughly 15000 years ago according to some estimates), there has been a wide range of breeds available. There are about 475 registered breeds in the world today. This is due to the selective breeding of the dogs which allow pups with certain desirable trait in them. Some breeds are more suited to heavy works such as Siberian Husky, others are more suited to family life such as the Labrador, while there are other breeds like the Chihuahua which are more of a playful pet.

While there are a number of breeds but the most popular breeds for the year 2008 in the U.S.A according to the AKC (American kennel club) registration records is the Labrador Retriever. The other popular breeds in the top five according to the registration records were Yorkshire terrier, German Shepherd Dog, Golden Retrieve, Beagle in the decreasing order of popularity. The bulldog was the eighth popular breed, making it to the top ten for the first time in more than 70 years.

The Labrador Retriever has been the most popular dog in America since 1991. The popularity of the Labrador Retriever speaks of its ability to adapt in the role of a family dog. Some qualities and attributes of the Labrador Retriever are:

General Temperament – The Labrador Retriever is an intelligent and family loving dog. It is quite affable and energetic, adapting well to indoors as well as outdoors, and its great love and patience for children make it the ideal dog for a home. It adapts easily to the apartment life. Also its good intelligence, loyalty, patience and eager to please attitude make it ideal for the role of helper dog. In its role as a helper dog it is used a guide dog to the physically challenged as well as companions to the elderly people.

Physical Appearance – The male weighs about 30-35 kg while the female is lighter, in range of 26-32kg. Their coat is quite short and straight. The tail is otter like, broad and strong, while the toes are webbed. Their coat is interwoven and hence somewhat waterproof.

Life Expectancy – The average healthy Labrador Retriever is expected to live for 12- 14 years. It is quite prone to obesity. Due to its floppy ears, it may get ear infections.
