Thank you for posting this . He’ll just get even more cuddles

Zeus has only one testes dropped and the other is not looking like it will drop. He was going to be snipped at 6 months anyhow ( he’s 6 mth) but Vet said it’s a more involved operation to find the other one as it must be removed. He talked about the risks of cancer , we have had a lab die to cancer so there is no question he’ll be booked in within a couple weeks. Does anyone know much about this type of op ? I did ask vet but they didn’t go too much into detail and obv I’ll ask him about recovery etc but I was wondering if anyone has gone through this ?

Right that makes sense she must have approved it then, as it came through within a couple days. But it is concerning if it’s an auto thing about 14 days. I guess it helps for rescue though or the other reasons you listed.

He’s now 4 1/2 months so still a baby , it’s calmed down a lot over the last couple of weeks and he hasn’t done it recently . He still gets super excited when meets people

So we’ve been at the beach for the week. It’s hands down ( I think ) the best place to bring a in training puppy . All the dog owners that come here have super well behaved dogs as they know the beach is a highway so dogs can’t just run out and the camp site has rules no barking , dogs in sites - the usual. zeus is living his best live socialising when I let him and when we are training people just understand and keep away .

No he’s always standing up and just I’ve the top excited , but as I say it’s only certain people and I think I might be to do with how they greet him. I’m working on calm with him.

Zeus breeder signed the microchip paper all good, but because I’m not a paper person I just went online to the AAR website filled in the number , offical pups name , my details and paid fee and two days later I got a email with the transfer of chip ownership cert. I don’t know if they actually check with the breeder as I didn’t haven’t to upload the paperwork she had signed !!

It’s only men though never dogs . im not concerned , I just go mind your foot when I see his type come to pat him

When we had our last lab he was so popular his entire life- I’d have kids come and wrap their arms around him- while I’m there going umm no no don’t do that please . But he was calm as a pup , this one is excitable - he’s calm at home though and he’s got great recall so I’ll take the wins . thank you all

Well it’s hard to tell 100% but the sequence is the person will look his way, he’ll notice and they’ll be going on hello cute boy , whatever and clearly be coming to pat him and he gets super wriggly and pees- but that could be another person saying hello aswell, he’s excited but no pee.

I have a question , if anyone has experienced this issue. To say up front I’m not too concerned and we are teaching him to be calm when he greets people and it’s kind of funny … ish So on occasion when Zeus meets a new person he gets what I think is so excited he wees a bit . Now it only happens every now and then and there is a trend - it always if it’s a man who is a bit larger shall we say. The men have all been very excited to say hello to Zeus. is this weird ? He doesn’t do it with me or my husband or any kids or any women. The men don’t look like husband either. Lol im interested in pack mentality and Zeus definitely is understanding his place in the home so I don’t think he’s been submissive to these random men when it happens- as hell sometimes be a bit snippy with them( after the wee)

What a lovely story , she is gorgeous

Yeah it’s stressful , I remember this with my last lab aswell, he was a child magnet but he was also calm from a pup. This one like a chew on a finger - not mine but anyone else that comes past .

Thank you, I’m definitely one to speak up , I guess in this circumstance I didn’t want to be too mean mum as it’s on the school run but your right I need to be firm. I can see why people almost take it as in invite when you’re walking with a pup ,but when you’re facing the dog, back to the people it just amazes me . It’s actually not kids are the issue just the parents and kids with dogs. it’s been a minute since I’ve had a Pup so I guess I’ve forgotten what it’s like. At the beach this weekend a three year old actually put her legs over the back of him, I definitely told her not to try and sit on a puppy back, in a nice way and to the parent when they eventually strolled over !!

Ha ha yes I guess so
