We use kibble too, but it is a relatively large kibble, so I think we get fewer pieces per gram than some other brands. FWIW the brand is called...
So today, at the station I heard two young men talking. Based on their appearance and where we were I think they would be medical students or...
We mostly use our food for training in 3 or more lots when we are home. When we are working he gets 2 lots of training kibble, a kong when we...
I was going to talk about getting Chewie in winter, but then I read that you are in Toronto and we are in Sydney, so the experiences really aren't...
It is pretty horrible looking, but nothing major is broken, hooray! And, as an added bonus, Chewie has learnt to retrieve his dummy which is...
Probably good idea, although our next and final class is having a cup of coffee at a cafe so she probably won't be treating him. We will be...
She's gorgeous! Looking forward to many more pictures.
That's great to hear. Just remember that there will be good days and bad days, but you will get there with perseverance and patience.
I ended up getting an xray- no obvious fracture, but I missed Chewie's star performance at school where he apparently excelled in the "park"...
So we were out at the park with Chewie and we were just wandering around, sniffing stuff and playing recall games. I was jogging around and didn't...

To me it sounds like playfulness and teenage boisterousness. My boy (6 months of boisterousness) also demand barks and we try to ignore it and...
From what I gather (any breeders here, feel free to correct me!), most responsible breeders learn by spending time with other responsible breeders...
Thanks guys! I figure that walks are for him, so if we spend 5 mins working on corners (or sniffing a bush or staring at a turkey), then that's...
No, we just reinforced with loads of treats and praise. He never looked particularly fearful, but just wouldn't move. So we literally reinforced...
Guess what? Chewie is pretty much over his fear of street corners. We now get there with the briefest hesitation and a treat. He then waits to...
Yes, I spend a lot of time chopping treats into teeny tiny little bits because we use them so much! Other dog owners look at me a bit weirdly,...
On the flip side of this, I had two very sweet girls, aged about 8, ask permission to meet Chewie. I said yes, but I would ask him to sit first....
Welcome from me and Chewie in Australia! You sound well prepared. Good luck. :)
I know that people dont realise what they are doing, but it does make me wonder how their dogs behave?! Though most dogs aren't as outgoing as our...
