DON'T TRY TO TRAIN YOUR DOG TONIGHT

SPOKANE, Washington (Wireless Flash) -- If you want your dog to obey you, avoid training it during tonight's full moon. According to former show dog trainer Rhonda Hart Poe, the phases of the moon affect all living things and full moons tend to "pull" dogs' attention away from training. The full moon is also stressful to domesticated animals. Poe claims the best time to train is when the moon is new or just a sliver in the sky. She says just about the only good thing about a full moon is that it tends to make cows produce more milk and chickens produce eggs with richer yolks.
