We currently seem to have one good day followed by two bad days, after a really great Saturday Ripple has gone back to serious mouthing and not...
I've finally managed to get the harness on Ripple, after 6 weeks and MANY MANY pounds of cheese! Yesterday we took him to the farmers market,...
I could have written your post Newlabpup myself 7 weeks ago (and probably did)! Loads of really good advice on here and just getting replies from...
My chocolate lab, Ripple, was the most horrendous biter compared to my previous two and I also got him at 7 weeks. Now, at 18 weeks, he is...
Well at least I don't feel so bad about Ripple now, seems lots of us are going through it. He is 18 weeks and still a real shocker when in hyper...
Surprisingly they are frozen kongs! Ripple has developed a 'suck and chuck' method which eventually loosens the filling so it can be distributed...
Thank you both - I think one of the problems is Ripple is getting overtired as, because he doesn't stop, I don't recognise when he should have a...
I should also add that he doesn't take himself back into the crate without being asked so I'm never actually sure whether he's tired and ready to...
I'm really disappointed that I can't get Ripple to settle unless he is in his crate with the door shut. He will lay at my feet if I keep feeding...
Must be something in the air! I've had two horrendous walks with Ripple this week, one on lead where he suddenly went berserk - growling, jumping...
Ripple started off today in an absolutely horrible mood, wouldn't even let me put his collar on, had a morning walk then nearly tore my trousers...
I'm living in Scotland as well, in Fife. I'm originally from Kent but have been here 15 years after a brief 3 years in Durham. I only joined the...
The knob has reappeared already, after an exited chase about with a football. Ripple is now currently enjoying a banana and kibble Kong as a...
Thank you for all the suggestions. Ripple has vetbed in his crate and has already eaten a hole in a brand new piece of it - my previous vetbed...
Ripple is now 4 months old and I am trying to expand the range of training I do with him, one of the things I keep reading is using a mat to place...
Thank you! I will keep an eye on him (and his poo).
Yes, smaller than a 10p, and I'm pretty sure it was soft not hard plastic - there was definitely no crunching from Ripple, and normally I can...
He chewed it off the computer chair, I think it was a soft rubber type - it vanished down his throat before I realised what he'd got. Really...
Well done with getting the harness on! As soon as Ripple sees it he starts rolling on the floor and biting when we go near him, it started to have...
My husband is away this week and I'm working really hard with Ripple on the biting and nipping. However I'm now having another problem which I'm...
