    Talking MA training with pets?

    Before he died I used to use my snake fist on my cat Ty (the american guy) who responded with tiger claw. he had great "explosive power" a la Shaolin. My new feline, Styles, is more into the groundfighting thing. He has these huge paws that he uses to bat and step on things.

    I wrestle with my dog, he's getting to be pretty good. I practice push hands with him, too, he's pretty good for a dog.

    I have a pet Rhinocerous named 'Nosy' I do weapon sparring with.

    Okay, that's an outrageous lie. He's really a unicorn named 'Shish Kebab.'

    Boxers are less tame than wolves and have no place in society. When I was 6, there was this dog across the street that was as good as lassy, all the neighborhood kids came to play with this dog every day. One day while I was playing with it, the neighbor's boxer came charging out of the backyard and ripped right into this dog, almost killing it. If the victim dog was smaller or it's owner didn't run in and kick the other dog in the face (he was a karate instructor) that dog would have died, or if the boxer came after me, I would have died. There are countless other reports of spontaneously violent behavior from boxers, it's only a matter of time before they're banned.

    KFG -

    This doesn't jibe with the three loving, gentle boxers I've personally known and owned. They are a breed that is very protective of their homes and family, but Buck (my first boxer, and the one that took on a Moose for fun in a story I've related in another thread) was easily trained to drop to the ground whenever he met another person or dog while we were on our walks. He never started a fight with a person or animal, except for that moose and the mailman.

    When I workout on my heavy bag in my home Dojo my do goes nuts and attacks the bag untill he can no longer contain himself. He then begins to attack me untill I kick him out.

    Animals

    Joe, if there are any clips of animals doing funny stuff on the web, I have it. I've never known a mean boxer either, CSN. That one in the pic^ was the sweetest dog in the world. He helped raise two kittens, he was their big brother. He was also my dog's best buddy for a while. If you notice in the pic, he got a good face shot in, but I had my hand on his throat, ready to go, hehe. I don't really believe the whole breed thing. Sure, some dogs are going to be "more likely" to be mean, but if you raise them to be gentle loving dogs, they won't be. My dog(the one in the cowboy hat and sweater, haha) is Chow, Pitt Bull, and a little lab. As soon as I tell people what breed mix he is, they assume he's mean, but he's not, because I raised him not to be violent.

    Yes, if you raise a dog well it will turn out great, even a boxer. However, if an owner doesn't discipline a dog well at a young age (which is the case with many owners), the dog will turn out to be mischevious, and in some cases (mainly the boxer's case), violent. Also, if a stranger looks at some of the larger breeds straight in the eye, even if the person is petting the dog, the dog will see this as a challenge and attack. The dog most famous for this is the boxer.
    I've worked at an animal hospital for the past two and a half years, I've seen how mean these things can get, and although they can be great dogs if the owner trained it well, they should still be banned. Wolves can be great pets too, right?

    I wrestle my dog, and cats... They actually lose
    All right now, son, I want you to get a good night's rest. And remember, I could murder you while you sleep.
    Hey son, I bought you a puppy today after work. But then I killed it and ate it! Hahah, I´m just kidding. I would never buy you a puppy.

    I tired grappling with one of my cats and she clinched on to my hand, it was an unusual lock that I've never seen before, although it was quite effective and I eventually had to tap out. My other cat is lazy and submits from the start.

    Hehehe, cats are the real proof that open hand is better than fist...plus they got that taiji thing to their strikes
    Anyway, I have to say that Boxers rule...when I was little my bodyguard was a boxer named Shiva...she was so gentle, yet no one could approach me without her permission...
    I'm sure she's in dogs' heaven now *sniff*
