We are proud parents of a 4 month old Chocolate Labrador named Bear. We just found this site and hope we can find help with a few “habits” we would like Bear to refrain from (like eating the furniture). Anyway, hope to read all the good advice on these threads and help Bear become a good and responsible part of the family. Regards Michele
Hi Michele and Bear. A very warm welcome to the forum We've got some tips for stopping dogs chewing the furniture in this article on the main site. Hope it helps!
Thank you all for your warm welcomes. Thank you Lucy for the link, it is a great article and gives me some ideas to approach Bears chewing habit. He ate, yes ate, two socks the other day and we worried so much he would need a trip to the vet. He eventually brought them up and is feeling a lot better I think. The hardest challenge is teaching the family to "not leave their things laying around" you wouldn't have an article for that would you lol. Thanks again for your help and welcome. Michele and Bear
