Operant conditioning is a "buzz word" in the animal training world, but what exactly does it mean?It's fairly straightforward to understand. Operant conditioning is a way of training dogs using positive and negative consequences for their behavior.Dogs respond to positive rewards in a positive way, by continuing to perform that behavior. If a behavior is rewarded, it is more likely to be repeated. If your dog gets a yummy treat when he sits, he's more likely to keep sitting. There are two ways of stopping an unwanted behavior. The first,is punishment. Punishment may not actually stop your dog doing what you don't want them to. They may perceive punishment as aggression and they may retaliate, or they may cower and become afraid of you. Either way, it adversely affects your relationship with your dog. The other problem with punishment is that the timing has to be perfect. If you punish your dog at the wrong time, he won't recognize the behavior you are trying to reduce, and instead may stop him doing something else completely. The second way of stopping bad behavior is to ignore it. Theoretically, any behavior that isn't rewarded, doesn't continue. This can be very hard for us as...more

The recent hip replacement recall has stirred up quite a bit of concern amongst those who have endured the surgical procedure only to find out that their device may now be faulty. And, who wouldn"t be concerned? Having a hip replacement is a major surgery that individuals often take months to recover from. Of course, this has prompted many patients to get in touch with their physicians in order to find out or confirm exactly which device was placed during their surgery. The ugly truth is that there are now more than 90,000 devices that have been recalled. The numbers have not yet been released as to how many of these are actually in use vs. how many are being pulled from the shelves of hospitals across the United States. The recall includes the DePuy Hip Replacement device systems, which are the DePuy ASR XL Acetabular System and the ASR Hip Resurfacing System; however, the Zimmer Durom Cup, the Stryker Trident PSL, or the Stryker Trident Hemispherical Acetabular Cup devices have also made the list of recalled implants. Though there are other device manufacturers involved, the Johnson & Johnson subsidiary, DePuy, seems to be responsible for a large part of the product recall. The...more
