    Vet has recommended neutering to reduce aggression

    @veroch I did that for my foster dog back then, I did it for six months, but 12 months was possible too. Afaik that's also the max, a year. We did that, because he'd stop eating during high time female dogs in heat and it some point it got too excessive (almost two weeks of no proper eating)...

    Does your dog sleep in your bed?

    @inneed1012 Yes, he does. He also has free access to furniture without needing me to tell him he can go on. You can set boundaries still by teaching him "Up" and "Down" as commands (even if your dog has free access at all times to those places) and make sure he understands down means going off...

    I found my dog’s hidden stash today

    @wdouglas1611 My dogs the same, one time I accidentally dropped a Paracetamol and I had to scream to stop him from eating it. He may have been scared, but at least he didn't eat it, cause it's not good for pooches lol

    flack for muzzle training.

    @hyperionlight In 2021, bite-statistics were released of Berlin, Germany of 2020. 209 were from mixed breeds, 56 GSD, 51 unknown breed and 29 were by Golden Retrievers. The breeds that are considered dangerous everywhere and in some countries, including Germany, restricted or banned? Out of...

    Help needed again- My friend’s GSD mix just attacked her 1 y/o son. She sees nothing wrong with this. Help?

    @anadascal Have you contacted the animal welfare/RSPCA about this to report that it has happened? They can actually get involved to get the dog taken away if they can prove it's too dangerous and that Sarah is not fit for the dog. They'll usually decide what to do after that, which I think might...

    Warning grumble or “talking” grumble?

    @wayofthepromise I think your best bet for this forum here would be to upload it unlisted on YouTube or try imgur! Dogadvice allows video uploads iirc

    Warning grumble or “talking” grumble?

    @wayofthepromise 😂😂😂 That is hilarious, hahaha! I mean, let's give him some ease, some trainers aren't even able to read a dogs body language!!

    Warning grumble or “talking” grumble?

    @wayofthepromise I'm so sorry that it was so problematic to get updates on your pooch and you weren't given any tools (I don't mean aversives, training techniques is what I meant) on how to further manage his behaviour. I am so glad that Jet seems to enjoy himself more and that he isn't...

    Warning grumble or “talking” grumble?

    @wayofthepromise After reading all the horror stories and experiences, I will never board and train my pooch... It's also extremely expensive. I would not take him back honestly, especially because you weren't allowed to visit and didn't even show you properly what they did so you could utilise...

    Warning grumble or “talking” grumble?

    @wayofthepromise Well fuck, that doesn't sound good - sorry for the language. But a baord and train that does not do follow ups and doesn't update you when you ask, that's a huge red flag. I don't meant this as judging you btw., we all do what we think is the best. It's just that often board and...

    Warning grumble or “talking” grumble?

    @wayofthepromise I just watched this one, so when he grumbles, he starts also to lick his lips and move his head away from his hand when he tries to pet like certain sides of his face. His pant also becomes bigger at some point, they're stress signals possibly. Jet might want to be pet, but...

    Warning grumble or “talking” grumble?

    @wayofthepromise I read the comment about the language, it could be a warning growl. Does the pooch have any way it usually shows when it wants pets? My dog will come to me and shove his head under my hand brutally and I use that to check if he wants me to pet him or if I should continue! Also...

    Warning grumble or “talking” grumble?

    @wayofthepromise You could take a video and post in r/dogadvice ! Or a video, upload it somewhere and post it here as a link, it might be better to judge :) It could be either honestly, it depends on his body language. Also FYI... dog daddy is hated by both balanced and r+/Lima trainer side...

    People have zero survival instinct and it’s hurting my dog

    @knittedspoons OP, I'm so sorry you go through this! I know this all too well, happens too much. For safety reasons, my dog is muzzled (make sure your dog can fully pant and yawn and that the length is good, this website here has a lot of amazing information and this is a great resource on how...

    People have zero survival instinct and it’s hurting my dog

    @samsunguser Hard plastic sure hurts! My pooch had one before I switched over to wire - which is much more ouchies! Luckily it hasn't broken down as of now, which I'm happy about, as it was hard to find one that fits him well enough, but dang, wire hurts. But that way, I can ensure he can't get...

    People have zero survival instinct and it’s hurting my dog

    @samsunguser She has never been muzzle punched I guess. I don't have a lot of fun with my blue legs sometimes, because my dog accidentally hits me in the legs when flailing like a fish out of water upon seeing a dog.
