Hi everyone, I have a bad behavior question...was not sure if this fit into obedience, because it's more bad behavior than obedience...anyways, Buddy has been jumping on the back doors when he is ready to come in...this behavior has to change because when summer comes, he will break my doos. He...

Hi everyone, Been a while since I have posted...we have been VERY busy, but I thought of my newf net friends yesterday when Buddy showed us his true newf problem solving capability....which is one trait I have a love/hate relationship with....it can be so very funny at times, but when you are...

I am hoping someone has a tip to help me keep Buddy out of the garbage....he likes to go into the garbage in the bathroom and pull stuff out, then proceed to chew on it. And yes, a solution would be to shut the door, which we do because he will drag out toilet paper, but eventually he is going...

Well, I am not opening up a heated debate here....but I do want to express my hapiness for the people of Iraq and Baghdad...I watched this morning while the US Marines helped them pull down a statue of Sadam in the center of Baghdad....after futile attempts of the Iraqui people to pull it down...

Hi all, Recently Buddy has started barking at my cat. Soon after we got him, he got too close, and the cat gave him a good whack! He was very respectful for a long time...well...I guess he has forgotten, and I keep hoping the cat will smack him, but until then...I am looking for some tips to...

Well, this certainly does not top barking at a green bottle of shampoo, but at night, when Buddy is sleeping, he sleeps with his tongue sticking out....I hear wierd noises, and when I look he is sucking on his tongue...reminds me of what my girls used to do when they were little. From my...

Can anyone give me some idea of what to look for, ask of a groomer? I brish buddy at home, and try to keep up with things, but every now and again, I would like to have him professionally done. There are two in the area...one is a training facility which also has doggie daycare, boarding...

Hi everyone, Last night, my family, and Buddy, were at my mother's house. They have a dog who plays with Buddy, and is a lab mix. He has always been very gentle with him, and did not play too hard. After their playing, and after Buddy rested for a little while, when he got up, I noticed he was...

Hi everyone, I have a question, and did not think this qualified as obedience, so I posted it here...Buddy is doing really well with housetraining...when I bring him out, he will pee right away if he needs too...Pooping, however, takes a lot longer. We are fencing in our backyard this spring...

Now that all the commotion has subsided, and evryone is calm, I have been thinking about training Buddy for pet therapy, and once he is a year, getting him certified...I know there are a few of you who do this. I have been looking at the Delta Society. There are not any groups here...

Ok...I have my house so that when we go out, Buddy is in the kitchen/dining room...he is not a puppy that I feel needs a crate. I have crate trained, and feel it's helpful for most puppies, but Buddy really has been different...anyways, I have two openings into my living room...one is a regu;ar...

I was expecting this, so it's not coming as any surprise, but Buddy thinks my 3 year old (almost 4) is a puppy...of course, the high pitched voice, the quick movement, etc... I am trying to teach my daughter that when Buddy does that, if no one is within arms reach to rescue her, to fold her...

Hi everyone, My lab, who is three, is driving me absolutely NUTS with Buddy (17 weeks) who we have had since wednesday...1 week today. Every time they are together, it's wrestlemania, and we have snow here that is basically coated with ice, so I cannot let them go outside and play. My lab is...

Hi all, Well, Buddy's vet appt went well, but he is only 38 pounds at 17 weeks. Is that TOO small? He seems healthy enough. The vet said he looks great. Michelle

Hi everyone, I have not been on this group long, but have come to respect the opinions here. I have a question. As some of you may know, I got Buddy wednesday. It was from a breeder who has not local, and had good references, etc, etc... She had a litter of pups, but also had Buddy...

Buddy was 17 weeks friday...he had never been on a leash before. Everytime I go to put a leash on him, he decides it's playtime with the leash and bites it. I don't want him to get used to biting the leash. I am not sure how to get around this. He's not SUPER active, and if he is, it's with my...

Hi all, First, let me say that Buddy is adjusting very well...he is really a sweet guy, and quite frankly, not like any puppy I have ever had...and I do not know if this is the breed, or just him, or a combination, but he seems so laid back, and just chillin'...it's kinda funny. Anyways, I...

My two girls have decided to name him Buddy...it seems to fit him really well. :D So far so good, Michelle

I know this is brought up a lot, but I want to make sure I understand. My pup is 16 weeks old, I am feeding him Nutro Natural Choice, and it does have glucosamine/chondrotin in it. Should he still get an additional supplement? If so, I can get this at a health food store, correct? Is there...

here he is...Mr No name...we will decide today. Michelle
