I would consider looking into Susan Garrets 'It's Yer Choice'. It is a slow and systematic way of allowing your dog to make good choices by...
I know she is very young and I am definitely giving her time to just be a puppy and am enjoying it, but she is in training to be my service dog in...
She is really into eating dirt, sand, little tiny pebbles in my backyard and then in the street bigger rocks that are bigger than pebbles but not...
First day without metro and only probiotics and still solid. Not bully sticks for 4 days now. Just nylabones and an antler. None of which she is...
OK, that is good to know. She was fine with rocks and dirt until the metronidazole really killed her gut bacteria. That is when she started with...
She is getting a Kong at night and then if I need one during the day I will use one although most days not. Maybe twice a week I will use an extra...
Her problem started on the kibble the breeder had her on. It didn't have chicken or rice in it. The only thing I added after getting her from...
She seems to not get along with kibble very well. And the prescription diets here are horrible horrible horrible bottom rung foods that I wouldn't...
OK, that is so weird. I have used high quality USA bully sticks with all my dogs. I have zillions of them just lying around so they are all free...
I have been dealing with Kestrel (13 weeks) having the runs for almost month now. She has tested negative for worms twice. But we dewormed her...
Thanks, yeah, the test included Giardia. She was negative. But has been dewormed using both of the things they use on Giardia anyway. I will keep...
So I got my pup at 8 weeks. She was/is on the same kibble the breeder had. A couple days after I had her her poop started getting mushy. Not...
Yes, thank you. My 'look' cue is coming along really nicely. I will continue to work on this nonstop forever. Her looking at me is not only a huge...
Thanks everyone so much. I am really learning a lot. I am really trying to enjoy my puppy. Something I didn't do as much with my current retiring...
We do a lot of fun things between the quiet. We train at least 3 times a day. She has already learned her name, look (look me in the eyes), touch,...
Thanks, that makes sense. I guess I am just so confused by the difference between the two pups. First one was so mellow and unflappable. Didn't...
So far our potty training has been fairly amazing. She had one accidental pee in the house. My bad. Otherwise I take her out regularly and she...
Thanks. Today was a pretty good day. A little resting. Some fun at the barn and some more resting. Then a little training for dinner and a tiny...
Ok, thanks guys. Yes I did read the sticky above and it did make me feel a little better. She isn't really doing 'that' much to make her so...
I have a 9+ week old black English Lab puppy that I am training to be my service dog. I have used service dogs for 13+ years and have trained each...
