Dog Signal Episode 11 Review - Positive Reinforcement

Dog Signal returns from a one week break due to the holidays in Japan. While the issue with Hana and Mrs. Asanuma concludes on a good note, another problem arises. I take back what I said about Mrs. Asanuma being the most infuriating dog owner in this show because Miyu’s ex-girlfriend Yuko usurps that title by a long shot. Man, she’s so selfish.

Niwa tells Mrs. Asanuma that because Hana gets so stressed from eating, she believes that if she eats, she gets scolded. That’s the reason why Hana refuses to eat. In order for her to get used to eating, Hana needs positive reinforcement and no discipline. Niwa shows how its done with Ourson. Ourson always seemed like the perfectly trained dog, but, like people, dogs have their own set of issues as well. In Ourson’s case, what he is bad at is toilet training. Ourson used to be bad at peeing on the pad as he got older because of his size and belief that if his paws are on the pad, then his whole body is on the bad. That’s why he had the tendency to pee on the side of the pad and not on it. I actually learned a lot from this segment because my dogs tend to pee on the side of the pad to and not on the full area.

Niwa didn’t scold him out loud for the peeing issues, but Ourson could sense Niwa’s frustrations which was why he became stressed and developed urinary cysts. Because of this, Niwa changed his methods. He tolerated Ourson’s toilet behaviors and would praise him whenever he did it right. Ourson can pee normally now, but because of the past issues, it took a toll on his psyche, which was why he never smiles whenever Niwa praises him for peeing. I think this opened my eyes a bit. Now, I feel bad for scolding my dogs for making peeing mistakes on their pads at home. I’ve been trying to be tolerant these days, but I’m glad that Niwa proves that this does work.

I’m glad that the story helped Mrs. Asanuma understand that she has to be tolerant and patient. I’m also glad that she still loves her dog that she’s willing to change her disciplining methods. From what Miyu said at the pizza party, Mrs. Asanuma calls frequently to tell them about Hana’s eating habits, which have changed positively. I’m amazed that stubborn dog owners like her are able to change like that.

I do like that Miyu and Niwa help each other in ways that they lack. Niwa isn’t the friendliest or liveliest person, so he has a hard time being too excited to praise Ourson. Fortunately, Miyu is there to help out with that as he was the one who danced around and praised Ourson for peeing, which worked! Seeing Niwa hug his dog and thanking Miyu for his efforts really showed that not only is Miyu growing as a dog trainer, but as a friend to Niwa.

Will Yuko be able to change like Mrs. Asanuma? That’s a very hard question to answer. All I can say is that Yuko is super annoying and selfish. She’s easily the worst dog owner so far. She has all the red flags that dog owners should not be doing. She wears strong perfume, which dogs don’t like. She wears heels, which could be dangerous around small dogs. She puts Tiara in a bag and carries her around like she’s some posh rich girl. She also goes to Proud Dog, thinking they’ll accept her, but Niwa hated her the moment she walked in. She’s totally going to abandon Tiara when she gets older and will be buying another small dog to be her new accessory.

Her worst crime is buying a dog. She bought Singe, but then abandoned and gave him to Miyu because she was told that having a large dog like him would be embarrassing; she treats Singe like an after thought—heck, she didn’t even ask Miyu if Singe was doing okay and even called him “that one”. After abandoning Singe, she buys her teacup poodle named Tiara for one million yen (Basically around $7000) and carries her around in a bag and dresses her up in clothes. Whether dogs should wear clothes is a debate I’ve seen a bit, but it really depends on the weather. I make my dogs wear clothes only when its cold because poodles don’t have an undercoat, meaning they’re more prone to feeling cold; they’re getting old too, so I want them to be warm. Back on topic, she doesn’t even have a leash or a collar for Tiara. While Tiara doesn’t look like she’s uncomfortable, it’s because Tiara is still a puppy and a very young one at that. When she gets older, she’ll start expressing herself more with her likes and dislikes.

I feel so bad for Miyu, honestly. He went through so much trying to raise Singe, but it did bring him two good things in his life: raising Singe helped him meet Niwa and realize his dream of being a dog trainer. Not only he meets all sorts of people, he also learns a lot about himself. And all of that started with Yuko dumping him and then abandoning Singe in his place. I just hope this is an opportunity to show Yuko that he has become a better person after she left him. Can he become a competent dog trainer to show up Yuko? Will Yuko be able to change?

I really like how Miyu defends Niwa from Yuko as she accused him of being a rude person. Niwa isn’t rude; he’s blunt and I’m glad that Miyu understands that compared to Yuko who only judges people from how they behave towards her. I do wonder if the reason for their breakup will be explained next episode. Other than that, I hope Miyu puts Yuko in her place. What are your thoughts on this episode?

My Fairy-Dog Son, Bear.

He an old man, and a total diva, but he cute.

Drew it to cheer up my chronically ill friend while she's busy surviving.

(stammering au) Say Dog owners, why don't you tell us more about your precious pooches?

"Well, Buddy is a yellow lab. He's s-s-s-seventeen inches at the shoulder with a short coat, and technically still a puppy. My mom got him for me as a g-g-g-gift when a friend of hers had a litter of puppies. He's very… He's very playful. His favorite game is Fetch. I play it with him almost every day. He's a lot of responsibility, but he's absolutely w-w-w-worth it."

"My Sophie is a white standard poodle. She's the sweetest thing, very cuddly. She's about twenty-three and a half inches at the shoulder, and we got her a modified continental cut so she looks pretty. Sophie also loves to go swimming and play in puddles. She can get muddy once in a while, I don't mind. I love making my Sophie Baby look all clean and pretty."

"Rex is a European Doberman. He's loyal, intelligent, and tough as nails. My parents got him for me as a gift. He's got a short coat and is twenty-eight inches at the shoulder. Before we adopted him, someone cropped his ears and docked his tail. That's illegal in my country, but whoever did it to him is bound to be dealt with eventually. Rex LOVES to roughhouse. It's exhausting, but whatever makes my Champion happy."

"My little Mitsi is a golden teacup Pomeranian. I found her at the animal shelter and simply had to have her. She's a tiny little thing, about eight and a half inches tall, but that only makes us love her more. She loves playing with her squeaky toys and will play tug-of-war with Rex and one of his rope toys. I almost named her "Fluffy" because of her coat, but "Fluffy" is more of a cat name, so I named her after my great aunt."

I have a Shiba Inu named Gigi. She's around sixteen inches at the shoulder, has a beautiful, golden goat, and the cutest curly tail. Giselle and I picked her up about a year ago when she was just a little puppy. She's such a precious little dog."

"My mom got Luka and me a red wiener dog named Lola. She's adorable. Smart too. She already knows "roll over," "sit up," "shake," and "play dead." She's only nine inches at the shoulder, so she's pretty low to the ground, but she has more love than a truckload of dogs. Sometimes she sneaks into one of our rooms and crawls into bed with us to snuggle. Such an awesome little dog."

"My mother recently gifted me with a Corgi named Toby. He's twelve inches at the shoulder and has a soft red and white coat. I love him, honestly. He's a friendly little guy. It's fun to watch him scamper around, and play with his chew toys. I've never had a pet before, so it's a new experience for me but Toby seems to like me enough. I'm sure it'll work out, as long as I give him food, water, and lots of love."

"I have a yellow Pomeranian named Winston. He's eleven inches tall. I found him at the animal shelter two years ago when he was just a little pup. We've been inseparable ever since. He especially enjoys playing catch, usually with tennis balls or rubber squeaky toys."

"My family recently adopted a French Bulldog named Lulu. She is the sweetest little thing. She's 13 months old, fawn-pied colored, and is about 18 inches tall at the head. Most Frenchies have breathing problems, but not my Lulu. Her snout is just big enough that she can breathe easily. And she is SUCH a loving dog. She adores people, cats, and other dogs. I can't tell you how many times she's jumped up on me to greet me."

Deeply unfortunate time for all of my nerves to decide they would like to be full of bees or perhaps very nervous teacup poodles

So Mr. Jenn leaned over to pet Seamus, and Seamus decided the thing to do was smash his head into the underside of Mr. Jenn's jaw so hard that Mr. Jenn chipped a pretty sizeable chunk off one of his teeth.

Extra points if Buck gets into a passionate ramble about stuff with another gym guy, as Eddie feels the jealous

somebody else in the gym offers to spot buck and eddie starts barking and growling

you ever look at a small dog and think wow what an abomination of human genetic testing

[seriousbrat]

why are people fighting in your inbox; we as a society need to bring back anon forums where we can fight over all our takes abt how blorbo from our decades old children's books kicks puppies istg

lol for real! 😭I think it's because I'm in between marauders fandom and snape fandom so I'm like this middle ground/convenient dumping ground thing. honestly I don't mind ever if someone wants to share their thoughts or ask a question, and I don't mind if people disagree with me, it just got a little over the top with the hot takes haha. I think if we're at the point of squabbling over whether harry potter's dad or harry potter's mean teacher were abusive it might be calm down it's not that serious time.

you know what my hot take is? you can enjoy a fictional relationship even if there is abuse. (and this is not about jily. i continue to to think it's ridiculous to seriously claim it was meant to be, or is textually, an abusive relationship lol) just like you can be interested in a character who kicks puppies without supporting the kicking of puppies, you can be interested in or write about dynamics that aren't healthy or are destructive or toxic or whatever. it's fiction. it's meant to be about exploring different aspects of humanity, even the not-so-nice ones.

anyway hp characters who kick puppies: bellatrix, macnair, lucius, dudley
