User talk:THe dog trainer

Hi, welcome and thanks for editing Wikipedia. I'm sorry to say, I reverted your dog training external links from various dog breed article article. The sort of external link provided is not apropriate for wikipedia, since wikipedia is not a link farm, a method of link exchange to generate higher google search results. or a vehicle for promotion of products websites. You can read the article on External links for a list of what is apropriate to put in the external links section of an article. Simply having useful information alone doesn't make a site merit an external link.

The text added in individual training sections isn't specific to to the individual breeds of dog in question, so I removed those as well. That is useful information, it's just not the right place for it.

I hope that this does not discourage you from contributing.

You could consider looking at the Dog training article, and maybe putting some of your information there.

You may wish to review the welcome page, tutorial, and stylebook, as well as the avoiding common mistakes and Wikipedia is not pages. The Wikipedia directory is also quite useful. In addition, you might want to add yourself to the new user log;

By the way, an important tip: To sign comments on talk pages, simply type four tildes, like this: ~. This automatically adds your name and the time after your comments.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask on my talk page.

 * I just wanted to add a note that your dog-training tips indeed look useful and I hope you do investigate starting at Category:Dogs and go through the category tree to find articles where your pages are appropriate (as in the dog whistle article, which I just put back). If we linked to every possible dog-related web site on every dog-related article here, there'd be thousands of links in every article and it would be hard to find the ones that were really specifically related to the topic of the article. You'll get the hang of it, I'm sure.  Also continuing discussion on User talk:Trysha. Elf | Talk 18:54, 18 December 2005 (UTC)

Daschund
I'd actually be very interested in potty training tips for Daschunds...ours is not really getting the whole outside is good versus inside is bad thing.....she just does both....although she understnads that outside is a time to go potty, she just doesn;t yet get the fact that isnide is not acceptable. Any tips int hsi area would be of great interest to me.Gator (talk) 14:40, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

Hi, I have scheduled a housebreaking and potty training article i ngeneral, but I wil probably write it after the New Year. However, here are a few short tips: choose a command and spot you want your dog to use. Choosing a non grassy spot will avoid brown spots later. When you bring it home, take it to the spot and give it the command in a firm, but friendly voice. Keep repeating the command and let the dog sniff around. If it eliminates, praise the dog. If it doesn't go, take it inside and give it a drink and any meals scheduled and then go to the spot and follow the above routine. This should probably work even if your dog is older. So, in conclusion, a lot of praise and treats when she goes outside and a firm NO when she eliminates inside. Hope this will help :)

Oh, if you have a pic of your dog and you would like it posted on my site, just email me and I will find a place for it :)

BTW, since I am quite new here, I was just wondering what my Daschund training article lacked in information. What do you think I should add so that an external link is valuable for wikipedia as well?

Thanks! THe dog trainer 16:19, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

I have a picture of our current Doxie on my user page, feel free to use it, it's use is open to anyone. I'll tell my wife what you said as she is the one doing almost all of the training while I'm at work all day.

The artcile had a lot of info on what problems Doxie's pose but very little solutions (like what you jsut told me for example). I'd beef up the solutions section or else its just an artcile that tells you how much a pain int he butt Doxies can be. lol.Gator (talk) 16:28, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for your reply - you are right, the Daschund tips were few and not very compelling - I just added some extra info to the article - thanks for pointing this out. And hey, check out who the new star of the Daschund page is :) Please let me know if the external link would be appropriate now - thanks!

If you have any other suggestions for my site I'd be happy to hear them - as you can see, my site is just an "ambitious puppy" - I still have a lot of work to do on it.

I wish you an excellent Christmaas, if you celebrate it, and may 2006 start off on the right foot :)

Yeah it's much better. I wouldn't remove it now. Where do I go to see this "new star?"Gator (talk) 18:21, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

http://www.expert-dog-training.com/Dachshund-training.php She's much cuter than the pic I had, so Wilma is the new star :) THe dog trainer 18:23, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

Oh LOL, I needed to reload the site to see her. My wife will be thrilled, she took that picture this November. Thanks!Gator (talk) 18:25, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

I might use another pic from your profile when I add more content. I put the daschund training link back as well - please let me know if thst's ok otherwise I will remove it. I'll check back in Jan to see if the potty training methods I sent you worked :) Enjoy the Holidays! THe dog trainer 19:16, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

moving the discussion to the project page
Heya! I moved the discussion about your web site here to the dog project talk page, I hope you don't take it personally, I think that you have a nifty idea, i just don't think your site merits extensive inclusion (yet, maybe it will some day), feel free to continue the discussion there.

Oh, and a tip, to reply to something on a talk place, it's standard convention to preceed your line with a colon, that way it is indented, it's much easier to see who replied to what. - Trysha (talk) 21:44, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

Merry Christmas to everyone!
Hello, this is probably my last comment on Wikipedia in 2005 and I prefer not to talk about links, articles, contributions or visitor numbers :) However, I take advantage of this opportunity and wish everyone a Merry Christmas and an excellent start for 2006!

Talk to you next year!

Michael
