Plenty of puppies are fed exclusively on a raw diet, so the "high protein" argument doesn't stand up. And you'd feed your pup the "puppy" Orijen...
Currently it's the barking at my cats. They have access to the bedrooms and are separated from Xena (who has the living/kitchen area) by a gate....
Explain to your neighbours what you're trying to do. A barking dog drives people mad, but if they know what you're doing to deal with it and that...
Xena was on Eukanuba large breed puppy, and I kept her on that until I got through the massive 15 kg bag (just this week!). I didn't like the...
@selina27 how old is your puppy? We're also most likely to get nipped when sitting on the sofa (4.5 months), but I realised that this was most...
That first photo is wonderful! And what a great name.
Oh dear, there's always something :( She's not standing there licking the Vicks off so no harm done I hope. I swear this puppy is part beaver.
Cruella de Vil really had the wrong idea. She should have tried making her coats out of Labrador ears (I haven't spent any time pondering...
@Sarah B Vicks VapoRub! I saw it mentioned by Mags @Boogie and it seems to work. Of course, it was too late for one corner of my coffee table, a...
Do you know why he's leaving his current walker now, 2 months before big school? Will you get your next puppy a few weeks late, like Kara's puppy...
I get up at 645 am and a puppy didn't change that. I'd take her out for a wee at 530 am and then put her straight back in her crate - no chit...
I'm pretty sure I dredged up every old toilet training thread in the early days and yes, everybody treats (I'm sure Pippa says to treat on the...
I'd never thought about my voice affecting the recall, but of course, it makes perfect sense that it would. Ok, it sounds like adding the whistle...
I never would have thought to use stinky fish if I hadn't read the Kong thread that's stickied here in the puppies forum! Gives the room a...
I did initially (to make it super easy to slurp out), but now I just mush it a bit in my fingers before stuffing it in.
Start smelly and not frozen. I used banana and sardines (alternating layers), with a smear of peanut butter at the top to get things moving :)...
Have you read the article on crate training from the main site? You have to take it so slowly in the first few weeks, but it's worth it. Brought...
I started Xena on a voice recall (COME XENA!) rather than a whistle. I honestly thought that the whistle was just an ordinary referee's whistle...
You've made fantastic progress, very well done! You must be so chuffed. I also leave talk radio on when I go out. No idea if it helps but I like...
If Rosie is unhappy with her current owners (and it doesn't sound like they're making much effort to work through her anxiety) then a home with...
