cj Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 its fucking tough man. the hardest part is having to be mean/forceful to it when it isnt doing what you want it to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lonesomexloveus Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 my aunt bred her lab a couple years ago and had 8 lab puppies in her house at once. in addition to 2 full grown labs, 2 cats, and two high schoolers. everything in their entire house was either chewed up, completely destroyed, or both. i would have killed myself.

rrd Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 prepare for a lot of chewed up stuff, and pee/poop on your carpet at least for the first few months its all about just constant rewards for doing things you tell them to, and you have to be insanely consistent.

adamlikesmusic Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 My dog is a drop out of Pet Smart's dog training program. Hopefully he can get his GED this summer. He's an Australian Cattle Dog, so he's smart as fuck, and easily learns, but we just didn't have the time previously to finish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcm1610 Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 I hardcore lucked out with my dogs. One is a lab that doesn't have much drive to do anything destructive. The other is a lab-Aussie Shepherd mix that is high energy, but crazy obedient. I never really trained her, she just got used to my click noise and comes running when I do it. She's so needy that she is around me so often anyway. I walk her off the leash a lot and she walks ahead, stops, checks to see if I'm still coming, walks, stops, turns around to check again, walks, stops, checks again, walks.. etc. The only time I have problems is when she's home alone, because she has separation anxiety because she's a hand-me-down dog.

scotterson Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Here's my beagle doing what she does best: biting. Here she is sleeping, but still thinking she's too good for us... She's really a good dog, and a smart, quick learner...just likes to bite a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
