Hi @Anthony Abrao My dog comes up to me and gets my attention, turns and walks towards the backdoor, turns to me and again walks towards the...
I can think of a third alternative: Dogs can find barking to be a self-rewarding behaviour. If so, then barking needs to be put under a cue, with...
Hi @Holly Donovan Unless she is running short of water or her throat is inflammed from lunging while on lead, this question is definitely one...
Hi @Coogs86 Have you recently started going to bed earlier? Is sunlight coming into her sleeping area earlier? Black out curtains? I can't...
Good plan suggested by @Jo Laurens. Might I suggest you go to music store or hardware and buy ear protectors to cut down on the volume of the...
Hi @mom2labs could be a manifestation of frustration (young dog moves so quickly and humping is a way of subduing her), boredom or attention...

Hi @Auldreekie Hang in there it will get better. The toilet breaks when she is awake should be 30 minutes not 90 minutes. Praise is not enough....
Thank you @Bud Light/Dilly Dilly re @Chrishawn Green problem. An unusual problem. I have some questions. What is the lead being attached to? Did...
How do you hold the lead when the dog is barking at people? Taut or loose? Is the dog's bark high or low in pitch? Frustration or warning of fear...

Jo's notes on crate training that I linked have some good advice about what crate to get. And mattress/bedding. You will have to be busy with...
Hi @JZSmooth I would leave the door open (blocked with doorstop so it can't slam shut) and just let him take his on time in exploring a part of...
Very well done @jbg. Recall is such an important cue. May I suggest your husband gets the same whistle, carries it around his neck, and practises...
Hi, I think more information is required. Either the dog (no longer a puppy at 18 months) is fearful or what? What does the either refer to?...
The walking has been overdone, but I have no reason to think she has been socialised too much. Socialisation period ends around week 16. You can...
It's hard for me to read her body language from a still photo--I can't see her face at all. All I can say from it is that she is alert.
Hi @JZSmooth What is a Lab sonic? Dogs are social animals. They are meant to be around we humans. We have socially evolved together. So what...
@Madone Please don't get upset. No harm done. Communication is the only thing to suffer. If looking to keep her busy, then do scent training. I...
Ahh. Then my first suggestion is more likely. If turning the sound down does not succeed, then they might need to adjust the lighting in the room....
