His sister is owned by my uncle and is an absolute sweetheart. She does have a heart condition though, so I don't know how highly that speaks of the quality of the litter. We took him to the vet to get his hips checked and some bloodwork done to see if there was any physical problems. His...

The reason we got the prong collar is for walking him. It was the only collar that allowed us full control over him while we walked, and even then it takes several very strong jerks and a tight grip to keep him from chasing after things like bicycles and other dogs. (he just wants to run up to...

I have had a 3 year old yellow lab since he was 6 weeks old. He is 98 pounds. He is generally a playful, energetic dog who is very loving and protective. However he has always had a very random mean streak that seems to manifest under certain conditions. This mean streak usually results in...

Sorry I need to give more information. My dog gets more excerice than everyone in my family except myself. He gets at least one 30 minute walk per day, sometimes 2, and even 3. Every night at around 7:30 p.m. I take him out on the golf course behind my house and throw a kong ball about 100...

I can assure you my dog is anything but hand shy but I will stop hitting him with paper plates just because it hasnt seemed to help anyways. He absolutely already knows the drop it command, along with a ton of other useful commands. The problem is he only obeys them when he wants to obey them...

I realize that labs are mouthy dogs, and I also realize the negative aspect of taking a lab from its litter at 6 weeks. However, I feel like this reaches beyond the realm of play. He will growl and bark at me when he gets into his fits, and his biting becomes ferocious, he will clamp down and...

Ok, so i have had my yellow lab for 3 weeks now, he just turned 9 weeks old. He is a great dog, and very energetic, loving, and is learning very quickly. He already knows the Sit command, is leash trained, and getting closer to being house-trained. However, he has a huge issue with biting. I...

I recently purchased a purebred yellow lab. I got it from a breeder, but probably not the best breeder because he was only 6 weeks old. I have had him for 5 days now, and so far he is a joy. However, he has a small problem with biting/nipping. At first it was kind of cute, but they are...
