    My Family’s Dog is Afraid Of Me, I’d Like To Help Her Feel More Comfortable

    @pyroisonfire 1 small steak can be cut up into like 100 after cooking it with no seasoning. Then fed one by one by hand. Think of high value food and give that and you become associated with that high value food Also try feeding her kibble by hand. If she doesn't want to eat by hand wait a day...

    What’s up with the uprise of merle bully breeds?

    @jesussavedme2017 The people breeding those dogs right are hunting wild pigs and probably housing chain dogs. If someone wants to argue about chains it comes up all the time. It's better than a similar sized kennel. They get better interaction with dog next to, with human and are offered more...

    Balanced to R+ and Back?

    @tubal I got some physical dogs that repetitively loop and escalate behaviors. Teach a hard stop I don't see how in the dogs I have.

    Inbreeding

    @eltucan That is too young main issue. A linebreed is like that. You could then select the inbred dog with the most traits you like. Some will be intensified due to the doubling up of moms genes. 60% each time. So 120% mom infleunce. Take the concentration genes and breed the dog to a lesser...

    What’s up with the uprise of merle bully breeds?

    @mango I have malamute Canadian Inuit dog mixes. Bred for high work drive. Their coat needs essentially 0 management. I've met 6 year Olds who have been outside whole life and seem clean enough I'd let inside. Their winter coat grows in and if housed outside full time they shed near 0 when cold...

    Improper Vaccine Administration

    @joy9865 Solo jec 5 way doesn't cover parvo type B. It could be whatever vaccine your dog got didn't cover a different form of parvo. It could be genetic. A heart defect or something. To really know you need a necocrapsy

    Breed questions

    @thedancingbaptist My knowledge of terriers stems only to game bred terriers. Something you don't want for a pet home is gonna be a high drive version. Patterdale terriers will kill foxes and badgers at 15lbs chain weight. Those are tiny dogs bred for a chain. You'll want some house bred dogs...

    Study shows the behavior of crossbreeds can differ from their parent breeds

    @peteyg You could see it in my kennel this year. 5 dogs who are mostly malamute, some of them some siberian, and every dog roughly 40-50% Canadian Inuit dog. Bred intentionally for a high drive for sled working, high resource drive, high prey drive/hunting ability. 2 dogs mom with genetics...

    Study shows the behavior of crossbreeds can differ from their parent breeds

    @davecb That doodle thing I've pondered and wondered about both. I think it's a combo depending on dog or handler.

    Study shows the behavior of crossbreeds can differ from their parent breeds

    @lumiere I once was telling a doodle breeder if they really wanted to do it right (I'm into sled dogs as my reference point) they'll need to get 10-40 adult dogs who are unrelated enough to breed. Then breed through to like F10 to start to stabilize the end result for coat and temperment. Either...

    @joejord They will vary in size , vary in temperment.

    Gift ideas for the dog breeders in my family?

    @exposetheevilthroughjesus 5 adult dogs I go through at least 40lbs of kibble dog food per week. 12 puppies would soon be eating 20+ lbs of kibble a week.

    Study shows the behavior of crossbreeds can differ from their parent breeds

    @davecb Most aren't gonna Start a breed because the dogs are bred for a scattershot drive with no goal. Which makes for unstable temperment and that compounds over time. I have sled dogs and you select off a few times you can ruin working drive for multiple generations. Then they would need...

    My 5 year old Husky girl has a new trigger.

    @emmanuelbiny I had a iditarod line race husky obsessed with balls. She went to a dog park first year with someone else. I took her there 6 months or so. It just turned into an expectation of balls to control and get stolen. Also some female dogs she knew since young she had some bad association...
