I think your point has been made, @Sim :) - and the OP has already asked several questions about using a long line. :)
Well....I have to hold my hand up and say my Charlie was the world's worst for running up to other people and other dogs in his time. I managed...
Betsy's training session tonight was a 15 min lead walk, then placeboards and hand target (which I'll use for visual recall and also a hand...
You can definitely have her on a lead, and a mat beside you, and she gets treats for settling down. At first, if you get just a few seconds you'll...
I have a crate in the kitchen, and in the front room (and Betsy's main pen is in the utility room). She comes in the kitchen and the front room...
There are definitely two sides to this - on one side a harmless young Labrador running up when he really shouldn't (and anyone who hasn't made a...
Hi there I suspect that you haven't had any answers to your post because it's a question that is pretty much impossible to answer. First because...
Ah, I really do feel for you. I can't say what is the right decision for you - only you can decide. My new puppy is really, really bitey, and I...
Maybe in the UK/US they are available separately - my vet said (in his voice mail which I've just listened to again) that we only need give...
I do think it's normal behaviour, but what you expect is relevant. Charlie was a super excited teenager, and looking back on things, I don't think...
I don't know, I haven't asked yet. In the link you posted earlier, the supplier offers to ship individual vaccines for $25, so I presume you can...
Hi there I'm not sure it matters all that much, apart from I don't exercise my dogs hard directly after eating (I reckon a little time to digest...
It's interesting, isn't it? So I will be asking my vet now if Charlie should only be vaccinated against canine distemper (plus his normal annual...
What a lovely dog! Great photo.
It's a no to antlers here too - just too hard.
My house has definitely smelled of Labrador since Betsy arrived! It's either the addition of a dog, or different dogs smell more, or Betsy's smell...
The latest guidelines available here: http://www.wsava.org/sites/default/files/WSAVA%20Vaccination%20Guidelines%202015%20Full%20Version.pdf Say:...
I'm not keen on the idea of dogs carrying things, I do know of course that people have them do it (so lots of people obviously think it's fine)...
That's just what my vet recommends. Charlie has kennel cough and Lepto every year, but the core vaccines every 3 years.
Yes, Charlie had 2 shots, and when he was quite young - 8 weeks and 10 weeks. Although he also had booster vaccines (I am now not sure what...
