T O P I C R E V I E WTwho hasn't been there? Pets Interrupting Yoga http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQYK5vT9TBI teaselI have one cat in particular, who jumps on me to cuddle up, when I'm sitting or even close to lying down for some reason. I wouldn't be able to do it with him around - not that I've tried recently. I really need to exercise.mirage29T!!! awwww, that was sooo adorable! I had a silver mountain tabby in college. She was my soulmate! When I'd play piano, she'd get up on the cabinet, fold in her little paws, and just listen. She played 'kitten-on-the-keys' during the night-time... could hear her play.It was uncanny how she always seemed to 'know' when I got into pose and started to meditate.... soon she'd creep in and would curl up in the space between my legs. She was already old when I got her. She had been 'roughed-up' before by previous occupant, and I gained her beautiful wonderful trust. She was 15 years old when I met her, and over 20 years old when I had to leave her behind. Hmmm, come to think of it, SHE was about the same age as me back then! wow... Great companion.(music) The Monk and His Cat (Samuel Barber) featuring Stich The Cat [2:07] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fDgsvqBj8ug&feature=related Good night...

Fennell, a dog trainer in England for 30 years, wants to change all that. Expanding upon the theories of horse trainer Monty Roberts (the basis for The Horse Whisperer), Fennell believes one can best train dogs by emulating natural behaviors, that is, by treating them as they would treat each other in the wild. Her intelligent, straightforward and humane method has engendered controversy and increasing enthusiasm. After Fennel's dog Purdey went manic, injured Fennell's young children and had to be euthanized, she was fearful of owning a dog again. Lured back into it by the pleasure of showing spaniels, she adopted a high-strung young shepherd, Sasha, and investigated alternative training methods. Fennell's simple and succinct method posits that domesticated dogs are confused, believing themselves to be the pack leaders, and humans their subordinates. Fennell retrains dogs to accept a human as their alpha leader. She spurns the use of force, even in training language, employing instead a system of Pavlovian rewards. Those wanting true canine companionship will find Fennell's commonsense approach attractive and easy to apply with puppies as well as with older dogs. She addresses common problems, from separation anxiety to barking at guests to the mistrust of strangers that rescued dogs often harbor. Her knowledge and love of dogs is expansive and her concern for their well-being balances kindness and appropriate discipline. (Aug.) Copyright 2001 Reed Business Information, Inc. --
