We all know that dogs are highly effective at sniffing out drugs. But a little West Highland Terrier called Holly has this week excelled herself by tipping off police about a massive cannabis factory. According to the BBC, Holly started appearing stoned about a month ago when strange smells started wafting into her Reading home.

Soon Holly started sleeping longer and laying in her den until mid-morning.
“I had a job getting her up in the morning, it was almost as though she was drugged, probably stoned,” Holly’s owner Valerie Bailey told the BBC. After a few weeks, Mrs Bailey started feeling woozy too and called the Police.

When officers investigated the house next door they found a huge drugs factory containing 200 cannabis plants worth £50,000. Mrs Bailey didn’t have too much to worry about, however. It is rare that dogs get addicted to narcotics of any kind. Cats on the other hand are well known for developing a dangerous taste for addictive substances like catnip.

Dog training is a repetition of the basic principle of reward and punishment in various forms and combinations. Communication of these signals is the key to proper training. One very important thing to remember is consistency of signals. The reliability of the training depends on how well a dog is able to be sure of what your signals mean.

An important factor is the emotional state of the dog. A dog that is frightened, anxious, or insecure doesn’t train well and this reflects the importance of factors like proper socialization of puppies.

A lot of studies have shown that proper puppy socialization goes a long way towards ensuring a good temperament and receptivity towards training. Lots of handling, petting and generally being around humans in their everyday life goes a long way towards making a dog well behaved and easy to train.

Training Westie puppies should not begin too early however, as there is evidence to show that before a certain age, the brains of puppies are not significantly developed enough to process complex learning.

Professional dog trainers are best when it comes to training your Westie as they will ensure that the proper habits are set for life, including how to behave around strangers. For the safety of your Westie, it is your duty as an owner to ensure that he or she is well trained.
