That kind of describes my no-longer-with-me little toy poodle, except he was black and more of a mole-hill than a mountain. I think that's just...
Be strong. Or not? :D
Different breed, but I was very lucky in that if bouncing teenage Brogan went off on a tangent, I could tell his Mama Jodhi to go round him up and...
I had two kitten sibling fosters come into to my house when my first dog, Duncan, was about three years old. He'd never seen cats before. I put...
No suggestions, just sympathy (and a little guilty chuckle because it IS pretty funny). One of my dogs used to do something similar on hiking...
Smart boy - it's just the right height. :D
Hey, this is why I'm in marketing and can't add past ten unless I'm wearing sandals. I leave all that science stuff to you scientific types. :D
Oh, and pretty ironic...look what came up in my push ads when I was reading Pippa's article. If it's too small to see, it includes ads for shock...
While I always used positive training methods, I also thought to be a good trainer I needed to buy into the dominant/submissive thing. As I am...

Wow...at the risk of sounding very Californian and very old...that's just so completely LAME. Go back and call them on it for sure! :mad:
That's a lot for a six month old - bravo! Also interesting about the cape. I never even thought about getting a dog used to a cape. I guess...
Yay, Mollie! :clap: I know you've been doing a lot of socialisation and training with her. What did Mollie have to do be able to wear her new...
Wonderful idea! Make sure you hear from @charlie as Helen's Hattie is a PAT dog. She'll probably have lots of good advice. :)
Very nice to hear that you are doing so well with Rocky! :)
This sounds like he's taught something similar what I used to call the "don't touch/go play" command with Brogan. It's really useful! The town...
I really agree with this. NONE of my dogs could swim. At all. I'm a very strong swimmer and wanted my dogs to love water. When the two I...
After Brogan had his two TPLO's he wasn't allowed to jump on the bed so I taught him to put his front paws up and then wait for me to lift his...
