Sounds like a young ,bored dog ;) What does she have to DO ..to think about, to exercise her brain, and to chew ? What is her normal routine?

yes, dogs do sweat thru the pads.... your boxer may just be feeling a bit warm..

You are very right! Many DOLers are also keen photographers , and that's why I suggested you try to sell it on here

Hi - what experiences has she had with dogs up til now? What other dogs has she seen whilst on lead, and how did she react?

Hi.. Oh.. Ok. I was going to suggest you have your older dog thoroughly health checked... a dog that loses its playfulness could be unwell.. rather than bored. Digging holes..especially if he lies in them could mean he is trying to get cool.... A bored dog , IMO would be more likely to want to play lots..be racing around, chewing, jumping.... finding things to do... I feel you have done the impulse buy thing for the wrong reason ... Buying a puppy for another dog when you are not sure if that's what he needs . Your dog may be much happier/content /interested if his favourite human spent 20 min each day doing tricks etc with him ;)

oh hoping she does OK tonight... thoughts sent.

Dog Behaviourists That Are Ok With Prong Collars
persephone replied to heroeswit's topic in Training / Obedience / Dog Sports
It's good that you are looking at things which may work Hopefully, with a decent trainer, and some personal help in understanding what is happening, and why .. you will not need much more than a flat or a chain collar, and some toned and timed response times, coupled with a good reward system Hope you find someone who can help . -
Dog Behaviourists That Are Ok With Prong Collars
persephone replied to heroeswit's topic in Training / Obedience / Dog Sports
yes! you ask around, look around, and get recommendations -
Some do ... some which are not walked often enough on hard surfaces don't. Dogs with pale pads sometimes feel the heat on pads more , if our working dogs are anything to go by . When training GD's years ago, we never walked, or encouraged owners to work, on hot asphalt . Concrete is much 'cooler' ..asphalt can be extremely uncomfortable .

Bad Reaction To Skateboarder
persephone replied to Staffyluv's topic in Training / Obedience / Dog Sports
Please consult a professional, and get help with this one ..it would be awful if a mistake was made and something worse happened . Any aggression /fear at this level is best assessed by a good trainer/behaviourist. -
