How do you know? I think you've answered that yourself - despite it not being what you 'want'

The tone of your voice and 'manhandling' is what scares the dog ..you could hold his nose on a flower in teh carpet , and have a similar effect . ;) MUCH better to train the RIGHT thing :)

I didn't read it that way ..

hi :) is your dog desexed? he sounds as if he has matured , and is now 'showing off'...and marking his territory . My suggestion would be to NOT give him any free time inside - he is to be on lead , with a human at all times . Take him outside each hour or so.. and encourage him to pee ... BIG rewards when he does :) When he pees - use a cue word of your choosing ... say it as he is peeing at first ...then as he starts, then when he's sniffing/looking - until hearing that word will be his signal to pee ;) What obedience/training have you & he done?

the puppy's breeder should have given you feeding advice. What did they say ?

What a good boy he is , and I love that your other boy is also calm and caring :) Great update!

This looks like a chocolate with a faded coat to me? looks like he has chocolate points :)

in dogs who live in such close companionship - yes, it takes time. Extra nourishing food - maybe some B vitamins , and an adaptil spray/collar , but basically don't force her - and keep up as normal a routine as possible .

The red ones are just gorgeous, aren't they? I have only ever known a couple . Good luck - and yes, wait until your girl is mature and well mannered :)

"Stay Down, kid ! Dad knows best . Humans LOVE when you grovel at their feet ..." Like This ? Is this good?

SOUFF!!! :D

Ha, ha, ha!! have a look here

:) it's kinda like having an armour plated , human 3 yr old around :p

I agree, but she was probably refuelling.

:) Rainers, you probably THINK you do ;) Dogs are EASY !

good point, Jemmy ... The registration doesn't worry me as much as if the parents have had health testing done .

That's lovely :) he has an all-round halo !

Love it!! :)

apparently ......... *shrug* Don't usually spend time on silly ads - but this intrigued me ...

LOL the answer to my query about the dobe's breeding , and some explanation of bobtail ...? I like when kiddies get upset ;)

terry L - check the prefix name with dogs NSW . - if you have concerns/facts , that the ad was misleading , contact the forum admin. troy click HERE When you asked about pedigree papers , what did the breeder say ?

ad has been removed anyhow .... poor thing will probably end up in pound

I did wonder - the labradore looked reasonable , the dobe - well looked dobeish ..the offspring looks black, and narrow ,with a white spot on chest anyhow - just one of those things , which I should have ignored ;)
