They definitely do this. :) That's quite a simple chain to understand, and repeated many, many times a day in the average labrador house. :)...
Nope. Don't buy it - at all. Even Charlie, who is the smartest dog ever at working out what get him what he wants wouldn't do this. And if you...
Well, I have to say it's done more for Charlie than for me! :D When Charlie was recovering from cruciate surgery and we had to build up his rear...
Is 20lbs about 9kgs? That's not massively heavy, although is on the heavier side. Charlie was nearly 8kgs by 9 weeks. We do see puppy around...
I think dogs do learn not to drink seawater, but taking fresh water with you and offering them that does seem to help a lot. Charlie retrieves...
Based on my experience with my older dog....running about free does undo all your hard work. Sorry. I wish I could say it doesn't, but it does. :(...

Do check the ingredients to see whether your feeling that the puppy food is too 'rich' might be right. Do you mean too fatty? Or too high in...
Who calls Chocolate? Granted, there is a LOT of rubbish that some people call chocolate around. But 'we' don't really mistake it for the real...
Er.....:D:D:D
It is possible he wants to go to bed. Charlie, my older dog, wants to go to bed after last wees etc. when there is no more 'stuff'. :) I've never...
I've always slightly struggled to find treats that really do hold up in the face of distractions. I just don't seem to have dogs that will forget...
She says she'll pop up once she's finished barking at the foxes. :rolleyes::D
