    Bonding with a 6-7 month old dog

    @verkas I really appreciate the response, I actually took him on a rather big outing today with a long walk in a park, stopped for some coffee at a cafe and took him to the groomers. Hand fed him some puppy moose and gave him a good massage behind the ears. However on the couch he cuddles up...

    Why can’t people leave me and my reactive puppy alone?

He doesn’t like being up there, girlfriend wondered why he wouldn’t take treats. I just told her when I do this, I have a comforting voice and so it quickly as I can. Then...
