Why on earth would you give a dog laxative chocolate? :blink:

If you kick the dog you will get into trouble. If the dog sh*ts all over the floor, odds are the owner will kick the dog for you, thus saving you time and energy.

What´s the solution for if a dog cries/howls all day? I´m guessing the dogs lonely and wants to be with his owners, but if they´re out working all day they can´t help it. Should you get some sort of compagnon for the dog? If yes, what then? another dog? Donkey? Cat?

We we given one and it didn't work. So we installed triple window glazing instead. That worked.

It is crying and howling all day because it barked all night and the owner gave it a short swift kick in the HORLICKS on his way to work.

The problem with a howling dog is that it is bored or has separation anxiety.

There's lots you can do to train the dog not to howl and to improve the anxiety, however, if you get a companion for it, it's quite likely the other new dog will start to do exactly the same as the other dog... especially if you get a puppy, as they learn from the older dog.
You should google and start reading to see how to tackle it.

The problem with a howling dog is that it isn't yours. You can't alleviate its stress or anxiety, and you certainly can't educate the owner.

That is the main problem
