Maci &- Harley Golden butts     Barked: Mon May 13, '13 11:44am PST  I would like to know what the media considers mauled? Was the dog really completely destroying the child? Or was it a bite or two that unfortunately hit the 'right' spot to kill? I too, have no idea why so many are being attacked so badly to be killed. I have only experienced some good bites and then the dog leaves! my posts | my page | msg me | gift me | become pals [notify]

Maci &- Harley Golden butts     Barked: Thu May 2, '13 12:30pm PST  Not an area I have read a book in (yet). But can I suggest you and the family take a look at dogwise.com. They have lots of books and videos organized by subjects. You might find them cheaper somewhere else but at least a good area to start with. my posts | my page | msg me | gift me | become pals [notify]

Behavior & Training > How to show your dog who's boss . . . . sigh . . ..

Maci &- Harley Golden butts     Barked: Mon Apr 29, '13 11:15am PST  I will take the risk of a lawsuit if my bossy goldens lick someone to death but I will not spray water-downed tabasco sauce on my light colored carpets!! I think the lawsuit would be cheaper than replacing carpets after every puppy. And yes, my previous husky loved any hot sauce too. She would think I was food using that method! my posts | my page | msg me | gift me | become pals [notify]

Sports & Agility > Funny obedience/agility stories

Maci &- Harley Golden butts     Barked: Fri Apr 26, '13 9:19am PST  LOL It would be easier to list the times that are not funny and/or embarrassing! We always joke that if you need a break and a good laugh when at a show go and watch rally advanced if the ring has the offset figure 8 sign. There is always a dog that is determined to get the food in the bowl and another that plays soccer with the bowls. We have had dogs do beautiful recalls or retrieves back to the judge instead of the handler. Dog that for some reason stop working to howl at the invisable moon. Dogs that do lovely fronts by flipping their owners shirts or skirts up a little too high. my posts | my page | msg me | gift me | become pals [notify]

Maci &- Harley Golden butts     Barked: Fri Apr 26, '13 9:07am PST  Mine get cow licking daily---it is called tummy rubs How come with humans, the person carrying everything is the servant but in dogs if he carries things he is the boss?? my posts | my page | msg me | gift me | become pals [notify]

Maci &- Harley Golden butts     Barked: Fri Mar 22, '13 9:53am PST  This eats up a lot of time in a day but what I did was walk each dog separately to get their jollies out first. Then take another walk with them together but it would be mostly training. My 2 are pretty good separately but when I would walk them together it turned into a weight pull competition So I would tire them out first then work on what I wanted when they were walked together. Sometimes on that 'together' walk we would not get very far! Eventually they learn that the same rules apply. my posts | my page | msg me | gift me | become pals [notify]

Sports & Agility > What do you look for in your sport dog?

Maci &- Harley Golden butts     Barked: Thu Mar 21, '13 11:51am PST  Next time I would like a bit more drive but saying that I am glad I did not get it at first as it is me that has messed up with training current and past dogs I look at temperment first...I might do sport with our dogs but they are pets first to everyone else. They have to handle lots of visiting, lots of traveling and lots of different animals. my posts | my page | msg me | gift me | become pals [notify]

Behavior & Training > Dogs that know 100 tricks but can't loose-leash walk?

Maci &- Harley Golden butts     Barked: Thu Mar 21, '13 11:40am PST  Real life experience are wonderful for Maci's problem. She can careless about people when we are walking or hiking...but unfortuntely that does not carry over to in the house with her most favorite vistors. And I do have to agree---lots does depend on what the owner cares about training or managing. It will be different for all of us. I know several MOTCH dogs that when walked in a group are walked on harnesses. The owners only cares to manage and protect their arm sockets when out for plain walks. my posts | my page | msg me | gift me | become pals [notify]

Behavior & Training > Neuter now or wait.

Maci &- Harley Golden butts     Barked: Wed Mar 20, '13 2:42pm PST  LOL I can add my girl as a spayed humper. She was spayed at 6 months and loves to hump pillows and toys and Harley when she is over-excited. She is not brave enough to try other dogs. I feel for you Moose. Harley went through a phase of wanting to mark everything, everywhere and anytime and then a stage of 'let's see if Maci will let me mount her' every hour of everyday and now he is trying the 'I am the head dog and I do not have to listen to mom'. Just requires tons of patience...and yes some days you wish you were just dealing with housetraining and teaching sit again my posts | my page | msg me | gift me | become pals [notify]

Maci &- Harley Golden butts     Barked: Tue Mar 19, '13 11:50am PST  The pup is adorable - congrats! Enjoy they grow too fast! The blanket or big stuff toy is a wonderful idea but once he settles in in a few weeks please watch him with it. My girl still has her blanket...but my boy once he settled in changed it from a snuggle toy to a chew toy. my posts | my page | msg me | gift me | become pals [notify]
