My pup was 5 months when we did a day's gundog training workshop which covered the same areas you mention, more or less. Like you, I was nervous...
I think you just have to try again and see what happens. Xena is 3 months older now so may have better bladder control? Also, it sounds like you...
Same here! Last night Plum was dead to the world at her usual bedtime so I carried her (yes, I know, but she is a titch) through to the kitchen...
Plum's a bit changeable with her routines (she's a week shy of 7 months). Yesterday morning she woke at 6.30 but on the few days previously she...
Formal exercise, walking on a lead, is considered to need restriction, according to the info posted on this website (and other places I've read),...
Really feel for you Atemas, my pup hasn't had the same difficulties as Red but I've been stressed out by quite regular diarrhoea and watch every...
You will get there, you're doing brilliantly, and your response to the unhelpful comment was absolutely right. I was buying something for my pup...
Woohoo!
I am pretty much a single owner in that I live with my 12 year old son who spends half the week with his dad. I am the one who does all the...

When I was a kid, we left all three of our labs outside shops (we didn't have them all at the same time), they weren't ever trained to do so , I...
I use daycare twice a week. My pup started at about 4 months old just a half day a week for about a month, then probably a day a week for a month...
It must be so frustrating Atemas, sorry to hear it's still going on. I don't have wise words, just sympathy. I don't know if you have taken her...
'..... or even just to lick the floor where another treat rested' - I hear you and I identify 100%! Labs eh?!
Plum loves a good old munch, has done since very young. Sometimes she's had an upset tummy after but mostly not.
This happens with Plum too. The plastic tray underneath her bed in her crate sometimes has a damp patch on it. There is also sometimes a damp...
My girl, 6 months, has run the full gamut of poos from kickable to like a shower spray and everything in between. In fact, she went from kickable...
Atemas, I just wanted to add to my previous response, about daycare. Someone suggested to me I ask other dog owners at the park if they had any...
