So we have had Maggie for almost 1 year. We have had a continuous problem when we have visitors over in that she will not stop barking at them. She is fine with people she knows but not with people she doesn't know. We have tried so many things, keeping her behind a gate, this made her bark even...

OUR puppy is 11 months and has been a challenge since we got her at 6.5weeks old. Our current challenge is resource guarding. We manage it day to day well by avoiding her the opportunity to pick anything up around the house. She occasionally gets the children's socks and we are able to trade...

Our 8 month old puppy has certainly kept us on our toes since we have had her as a puppy at 7 weeks. We have faced numerous issues. Her resource guarding behaviour has increased since she has finished her 1st heat. So we noticed that she was becoming increasingly protective about things she...

We will be leaving our puppy for an extended period of time during the summer vacation and I am starting to prepare a list of things to tell my pet sitter. She has looked after Maggie before whilst we have been away and comes over to our house 2x a week for 2/3 hours at a time; so they have...

Morning Everyone, In Saudi, we have very limited choice of dry puppy food. I order Canagan grain free online and Maggie tolerates it when it is mixed with some chicken or some wet food. We have run out and my next order will not arrive until Monday. In the meantime, the only substitute I can...

So over the weekend we had our first experience of some resource guarding. Over the past couple of weeks our 7mth puppy had shown signs of passive resource guarding which I had been keeping an eye on. When she had a toy/bone she had left around she would run and snatch it if she thought we were...

Hi Everyone, Our Puppy, Maggie, is almost 7 months old. I believe she should be on 2 meals a day now. She is a fussy eater and at the moment is on 2 varieties of Canagan kibble mixed together. (Chicken and lamb) She is not a huge fan and I got into the terrible habit of mixing a bit of chicken...

We are spending a lot of time conditioning our pup to like her harness being put on.... well maybe not like it - but to a stage where she will tolerate it!!. We do this 3 times a day- she is fed her lunch by hand, and this is incorporated into one of the harness training sessions. The other 2...

I don't know what to do or how to handle the following...... Twice a week I have a helper come to clean our house and watch over our puppy whilst she is there. I work 4 hrs each morning 8-12. (I manage to get home the other days for a bit to let the pup out for a wee, but not on the days the...

So our puppy has become a bit of a fusspot with her usual kibble. Totally my fault, as when she wasn't eating her usual amount, I added some yummy leftover chicken or salmon to entice her!! Now she is turning her nose up at plain boring kibble!! We are almost at the end of the bag so thought...

Our Puppy is only 4 months, but when should she be spayed? I have read some advice saying after she has had her first season and been in heat and other articles say around 6 months whether they have been in season or not. Any female pup owners have any advice?

So I see to be on here quite a lot at the moment.:eek: So brief background. 4 month old puppy - had her since 7 weeks. Probably left Mum too early but situation meant we needed to take her then and offer a better environment. She has a few issues going on which we are trying to deal with. We...

So our puppy vomited her breakfast 3 days in a row. She was super keen to eat it, maybe a bit too quickly and then vomited straight after. We did not believe she was ill as her behavior was the same, happy, active so when I went to work I left her with a kong as a 2nd breakfast so she wouldn’t...

Me again!! we seem to be on our way to resolving one issue and then bam....another one comes along to keep us on our toes:D:D:D What do you do when your puppy wakes up early?? Our puppy sleeps from 10:30/11:00pm until around 6:15am. However, every 2 mornings this week she has been waking around...

14 week old puppy. Raging ankle and hand biter at the moment and not a huge fan of strangers, being petted or men!!!! :eek::eek::eek:How on earth is someone supposed to give her a make over???:p:p She desperately needs one........ she is a total fur ball and can barely see out of her eyes her...

I am asking this as I feel as though I am constantly giving our pup treats! She eats 3 meals a day and we are battling a major ankle/hand biting problem. Based on some info from another website which someone recommended on here, (Thank you!) I have got 30 pea sized treats in a container and...

After much thought and deliberation, we got a new puppy on the 25th November. We didn’t take this decision lightly as we had a sticky situation last year. We took in a rescue dog and to cut a long story short, things didn't work out- after 2 weeks of settling in, his behavior began to change and...

We have had our pup Maggie, for 3 weeks. After some advice on here we have got a playpen for her to stay in for those times when we are in the house and can't supervise her, or for when we just nip out for 5-10 mins, so she doesn't always have to go in her crate. I think it will also be useful...

Hi Everyone, I am looking for some reassurance! We have a 9 week old puppy - Havanese/Shizu mix. We have had her for 2 weeks. We live in the Middle East, so have very little in the way of dog training support available to us here. We got Maggie from a home where the owner had the Mum...
