I don’t know what you mean by deportation but at that age my dog didn’t have access to anything she could destroy. I think they are very chewy at...
Fabulous to hear @David Poole , great progress. What a gorgeous pup :)
Indeed I do ;):eek::D
Have a read of old thread on here, it’s a common theme. Labs are fondly known as crocopups. It does pass so hang in there. Distraction worked for...
Super sad, but I think an honour to allow your pet to die with dignity. Loss is hard, it gets easier with time but your dog will always have a...
Totally agree. At that age, training was way more exhausting for Meg than exercise. At 12 weeks she just pottered around, no formal walking.
Meg is nearly 6. She has a robust recall, she’s awesome. I can call her away from anything. She still gets treats, not always...bit of a treat...
Ahh, I feel for you. I think if you had just a toddler you could probably get through the puppy stage, but with a new baby on the way...
Hello, ok...I might be a bit blunt here but as a mum, health visitor and dog owner of over 25 years...I think sometimes being direct helps....
Here in the part of the U.K. where I live neutering is not encouraged unless there is a specific problem, usually around sexualised behaviour. My...
She sounds a clever dog who wants to toilet outside, seems a shame to force her otherwise. I have always woken up and taken my dogs out over...
Meg is 6 next month and has never had a bath. Washing destroys the natural oils in their coat and leads to more problems. The most she has ever...
Hello, what a financial and emotional worry. These dogs certainly do test us. I think 6/7 months is a real chewy phase. I don’t know if it’s a...
Hello, so sorry to hear about your dog. I have no experience but had poorly dogs before and it’s tough. @J.D Has a dog going through similar I...
Hello, good to hear your dog is on the mend from quite a serious accident. I guess anything could be going on, he still could be in some...
Oh dear that’s a shame. She is at the most challenging age, it does settle with maturity. Could you try some doggy day care to give yourself a...
Yup, that’s the balance of having small kids and pups. It does get better though and it’s so worth it in the end. The friendship my boys have with...
Ahh, he just wants to be with his family. Our Meg always does this. It does not matter how any times I ask the kids not too run too far off, she...
Not very. I am in the UK and went to the kennel club obedience classes. I can't remember but i do remember they were great value for money and...
Can you get to some obedience classes ? They were brilliant for us. Gave a structure, some goals and sensible advice. Also, made great contact...
