    Protective?

    I had a smaller dog once when I was still in my teen years, she weight about 25 lbs, and resembled a chocolate lab but miniturized. She was very good with us kids. When we would rough house, Cocoa would join in, but she was gentle about it. Keanu wasnt like this when he was younger, but i...

    Protective?

    Thats exactly what I tell my two brothers. Dont rough house infront of him. He also has this thing where if the kids (my 15 year old brother & and my friend's 9 year old son) are running in the house (no they arent supposed to), Keanu will not only chase them, but tackle them.

    Protective?

    Keanu, my now 3 year old GSD, has been doing well socially, and i'm proud of him for it. However, just recently, he's been doing something....and i'm not sure if its protective or aggression that needs working on. I'm hoping its a protective thing. Anyhow, just today, as an example, my 27 year...

    Is a GSD a good Agility canidate?

    okay, i'll have to work on him with that, and see where it goes, because i'd like to get him into something he can enjoy, you know, besides fetch.

    Is a GSD a good Agility canidate?

    Jordan (younger brother) & Keanu I actually have no set schedule for the Agility classes. I have been calling around though and pricing. Talking to the trainers and all that. Just to get a feel for it. I have to agree with the basic obedience class, he could use it. Especially since he...

    Is a GSD a good Agility canidate?

    Does the dog have to be trained? Obviously leashed trained, but i meant, like, basic training, cause Keanu, he listens, but he gets loud and distracted in the presents of strange dogs.

    Is a GSD a good Agility canidate?

    I was thinking about signing Keanu up for Agility Classes. He has this obession with balls. Like he has to play with them, he constantly wants to play fetch. its kinda like, he sees it, and its his, doesnt matter who it previously belonged to. I had to stop taking him outfront when the kids...

    Can your dogs open doors?

    Keanu can but only if the door isnt completely closed tightly, and he can bully the door open with his body weight, or theres a level to pull down with his foot when he jumps up. When the pool gate is up, and he wants a drink, he knows how to get in that gate too. I havent witnessed this but i'd...

    My Dogs dont like the pool

    I hope so, because out here in Phoenix it gets really hot and it would really benefit him on those hot days when I cant constantly wet him down so he can hang outside with me by the pool. Cant, as in I have my 3 year old nephew over in the pool.

    My Dogs dont like the pool

    LOL. I tried the toy. I tried being in the pool and trying to coax him in. I however didnt know about the life vest idea. I didnt even know they sold them for dogs. Where would i purchase one, cause apparently i'm missing something, cause i've never seen one around?

    sad dog movies

    I'm not embarrassed to admit that Hachi made me cry. I couldnt help it, the loyalty that dog had for his owner, even after that tragedy. It was unblieveable, and very touching. Good movie. Anyone who hasnt seen it, they should.

    My Dogs dont like the pool

    I'm not sure what you mean. Its a diving pool, but we have also the shallow end. You know, with steps and all. I have taken Keanu in, but as soon as he cant toouch, he panics. Even if i'm holding him up in the shallow end. How would I teach him to trust me and that hes not gonna drowned?

    My Dogs dont like the pool

    How do you get dogs interested in the pool? I have a huge inground pool, but i cant get the dogs to go in. Any ideas? Pool Video As you can see inthe video, Keanu, has no problem going near the pool, or even drinking out of it, but he wont get in it. Note: We're in the middle...

    Raylan

    I want to keep him. Lastnight, i had Raylan in his crate, and he kept barking. Keanu went over and laid down next to the crate. A few minutes later, I didnt hear any barking, or whining. Nothing til I got up thismorning. i'm starting to wonder if they'd be okay to play (with supervision) out in...

    Raylan

    I only know what I was told. I still think hes a cute little guy. Today, he followed me right into the shower, hows that for potential loyalty. My GSD is highly loyal but he wont even do that. LOL. Maybe Raylan's gonna be my only swimmer this summer.

    RIP Penny

    I'm sorry for your loss. I've lost great 4-legged friends that i've loved too. Some before their time, and it hurts, but we live on, mourne them, remember them and heal, because thats all we can do. Its what they would want us to do.

    Got a question

    I didnt give Raylan back because i found out that the relatives who had him, didnt feed him but twice daily, and i'm under the assumption, that puppies eat about 4 times a day atleast. Good news is that my sister in New York is gonna take him if i can get him safely to her. I know she'll take...
