    Fun things to do with your Golden?

    Like previous posts, lots of training & exercise! 100lbs is quite a big golden! LOL Get with a good, positive trainier for private lessons. They will be able to concentrate their lessons with your goals & you will get the one on one attention you probably need right now. ~Tonya

    Dog interaction question...

    If your dog is a bit uncertain about things (dogs, people etc), a young, energetic strange puppy running at him can be quite scary! Another reason why people should respect the leash laws! LOL Given you were put into that situation, I would just do what others said, do some trick...

    Question About Halties

    I'm a big fan of Haltis & Gentle Leaders. But like with anything, they aren't for everyone, every dog etc. When I trained service dogs, we used them on all of our dogs except maybe 1 or 2 that would just shut down with it on. My dog is now 5, and I started him on the Gentle Leader. We now...

    Barking at the Reflection

    I agree (once again) with Redyre. Another thought, try rubbing some peanut butter on the window just before it's time for that reflection thing to happen. After pooch licks it up, add some more, etc, etc,. might make a new association with that window. I'm sure by now we are getting into...

    Getting a new puppy - Cane Corso

    I would make an appointment with a good, positive, dog trainer now. I LOVE when I get clients (I'm a dog trainer too), BEFORE they have any problems. So much better to get on the right track from the get go instead of trying to undo behaviors. Very different dogs from your typical Golden! I...

    Close to the end

    So sorry to hear about your dog. So, you've had your buddy since you were about 3, how tough that must be on you. My last dog before the one I have now, I got on my 5th birthday. It was really hard when he died. Not the best of ways either, sorry to say. I had to wait for over 10 years...

    need help: Thinking about getting.....

    Just another thought. I too am alergic to dogs (& dust). Back when I was younger, I use to get allergy shots for both. It started with once a week, then tapered as I progressed. Now, I'm full blown in the doggie world, shot free!!! Also, I think I remember the Doc saying it was the...
