You never mentioned weather the other dog not in the video but in the adio that barks whenever someone knocks. She might have learned it from her.
We all love our pets and we all gave different levels of training, tolerances and experience but I’m curious as to what the difference are between...
I just say find it and use a hand signal as well. The same one I use for retrieving. Only thing I noticed now ( since we started find it ) when we...
It’s not aggression, it’s “resource guarding”. Make yourself familiar with it quickly and dont put your hand in his bowl. I’m sure someone will be...
Find it has been my savour as well. Duggan is a very energetic 18 month old who just underwent TPLO surgery. He’s severely restricted in activity...
I was particularly paranoid about Duggan eating everything, which he did. As I learned more about why and my effects on his why I can say that...
Destruction using comes from an unhappy animal. Stress and frustration can build and they eventually need an outlet. Unfortunately it can become...
I’m Canadian as well but we were over toilet training before winter hit but the strain will be on you. This breed is tough, they swim in sub zero...
What worked for us ( Duggan could pull us over at 36kg ) was the stop method. Every time he pulled I stopped. That’s it. Then he would throw a...
I also agree with trying something else. We never allowed tennis balls. Dummy, frisbee, we even use a fake stick we call twiggy. Does he chew them...
I recommend the Happy Puppy Handbook and Total Recall. Very informative and excellent books, especially for first time doggy owners. Take the two...
I can recall Duggan off wild animal as well. We have at least 6 species of wildlife through our property on a near daily basis. He is constantly...
That or fleas.
I’m having problems of my own right now but I can’t ignore my instincts after reading this forum. Can you post your dogs daily routine. Tell us...
Could Duggan be going through withdrawal after his course of meds from surgery? He’s unruly. It’s like he’s on speed cocaine rum and coke mixed...
Sometimes it can be related to a slight food allergy. Duggan had flakes when we first brought him home so I did a bunch of research. We ended up...
I’ve also noticed that before his surgery we were working on walking nice with a slack lead and a crude version of heel. Now that he’s not well he...
Can I add that after we stopped playing he calmed down, looked satisfied and behaved brilliant for the rest of the night. Is mental stimulation...
So, been doing the find it game. He loves it. He’s getting faster and I can actually hear his jowls slap his gums with intensity when he searches....
It seems to work the other way too. His dandruff seems to be gone only a few days after he came home. He’s been medicated and resting lots but no...
