Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
My mom is visiting. She came yesterday. She's usually overcritical of everything I do, so of course the way we take care of our 5 months old golden retriever is one of them!
Of course, he's his usual self with guests, he tends to jump on them. Ok, a lot. When he's so excited, he barely listen to us, whereas he's usually pretty good about it. So here she goes saying that he is badly behaved, that we need to give him proper training, that we need to ignore him more so he doesn't think he is the center of the world etc.
It makes me so mad! It's my first dog and we are really doing good, it's just really hard to tell a 5 months old golden retriever that he's not supposed to jump on guests! And I'm never going to ignore him, he's my dog!
Anyone else got problems with friends/family members behaving this way?
