Most likely none. Today's animals which are (or were) useful in warfare are all mammalian and fairly intelligent.(Dogs, Horses, Elephants)
Dinosaurs were on average not as clever, would probably be harder to train, and could at best be used to aid while hunting like falcons are today.

My family has a cat who hates going outdoors. She sleeps in the closet all day and only comes out to eat or shit. Sometimes shits on the rug or couch even if litterbox is cleaned and free of pee and poo. If thrown outside she will fervently paw at the door and meow loudly. Doesn't do shit with her life.

Meet pussy. It doesn't have a name.

A cat that literally only lies around all day either has health problems or mental problems (i.e. boredom due to neglection).

HOW THE FUCK DO I TRAIN MY RESCUE DOG TO NOT PULL?

Stopping the walk doesn't work. He just goes and sniffs, or will literally sit there tensed against the leash for 10-15 minutes (I sat around and did obedience with my other dog and he didn't care).
Prong collars, martingales, flat collars, squirt bottles, and choke chains don't work. He just ignores them after a while.
Front clip harness don't work.
Back clip harnesses don't work.
High value treats don't work. Nothing is more interesting than smells or squirrels.
Clickers don't work. I can click to try to reward, but he doesn't give two fucks about any treat.

NOTHING. WORKS. He refuses to acknowledge me on walks. Absolutely refuses. He pulls like a demon and won't stop. I've had three trainers, nothing. My other dog walks like a total little angel and is flawless on a leash. She learned how to be well behaved in like a week of just stopping until she paid attention.

All I want is a peaceful walk.

You have to be more detailed. What did you do with those training tools? Not all of them are meant for the method of staying still when pulling. If you're having trouble gaining your dog's attention, I'd recommend attention building exercises. You can even do it between commercial breaks while watching shows.
>>
Have you tried running him on something like a treadmill or tiring him out on an extra long hike then rewarding his calm behaviour on the walk home? The dog should put up less resistance if it's exhausted. Given this does take a lot of time and work on your part

Hey /an/

I'm thinking of adopting a manx cat from the shelter, but I was reading up and it seems like "Manx syndrome" can cause them to have leaky bladders/sphincters.

If I'm adopting a manx of dubious origins, what are the odds it's gonna leak urine and shit? Is this something that starts happening when they're young? The cat is already 6 years old and hasn't had any issues (supposedly), so am I in the clear? Are there other health problems I should be concerned about? I also read that some have trouble keeping their butts clean. Is that common?

from what I know about manx cats that aren't actually manx but just fucked up cats... they're basically deformed so you should know about it when they're young. there's no health concerns associated with actual manx and other tailless breeds.

Are there ways to get rid of cat pee smell in a certain room? The cat is female and is fixed. I clean the cat box every day once and it is an enclosed box. The smell is slowly spreading through out the entire house. Help

>>2252884
Despite what any other cat owner here will tell you, the smell doesn't go away. It doesn't matter how you clean, how often you clean, or even if you get rid of the cat. I've been house shopping and you can smell if a cat has lived there immediately, even if the house has been vacant for months.

You'll probably adjust to the stench eventually but don't be surprised if people stop coming over.
>>
Use enzyme cleaner to get rid of the piss smell and then start changing the box more often. Full litter changes, not just partial.

Gives the prisoners an opportunity to provide a positive and productive input that will better someone's life. It's a good program. It's good for the prisoners, good for the dogs, and good for those in need of a service dog.

Fact: in Pennsylvania Department of Corrections, you can be a murderer and train an assistance dog, but not a homosexual.

They have a lot of fun 'take that fag' type rules and find ways to work them into anything.

What's the cure to neuroticism?
I think most social animals can relate to this:
>You make a fool of yourself by doing something stupid
>Just like any animal, you don't want to be excluded from the group so your biology tells you to feel really bad and ashamed about what you did so that you can correct yourself and get back into the social game.
But that's not how it works for the modern neurotic man. The modern neurotic man doesn't improve himself. He just feels hurt from everything and then he isolates himself

Repeat till your retirement, don't believe me?, look around and see how people cope with it.

My rabbit will blame the person closest to him and stay mad at that person for two days, including eternal thumps below the chair they're sitting on.

That's a solution, I guess.
