I, too, am enraptured by the Lincoln painting. What a cool effect. Where can we see more of your work, Kevin?

I've read this with great interest because I am going to be getting my first dog this year and this is one issue with which I would be very concerned. The crying would break my heart, but what to do? Thanks to those who have posted ideas and suggestions, I now have some answers.

I hope it's not a stupid question to ask if you have ever heard of Cesar Millan? He is a very knowledgeable, intuitive, and compassionate expert dog trainer/therapist who has a TV show called "The Dog Whisperer" (National Geographic channel). I only recently heard of this guy and he is so inspiring in his success at helping a different "problem" dog each episode. This forum prompted me to look up his website for you (where I found out he's written a couple of books as well) & here's a snippet that might help steer things in the right direction http://www.cesarmillaninc.com/tips/issues_separation.php. He stresses calm and assertive energy and the principle that you are the pack leader; it's not mean to be very firm about being the one in charge.

I apologize if this is contribution is redundant or not specific enough; I just really felt compelled to add this at least as a general resource because--and this is just my own personal endorsement--I have become a big fan of Cesar and truly believe you couldn't go wrong with anything he says.

Best of luck.

Please tell me all about those fab multicoloured dining chairs!
