I've got a 7 month old pup who is larger than most grown dogs. He is mixed (not one of my breeding dogs) and I'm having alot of problems with his puppy excitedness. He's a great dog, but I can't get him to calm down. The problem is his size. He can easily knock you down and hurt you with his claws, even with them clipped. He weighs about 60 lbs right now and is nearly neck highth (sp?) when he stands on 2 legs. I've tried all the basic commands, but this isn't an easy dog to teach. He is very stubborn and forgets easily. When he gets excited its like he forgets everything he's ever learned.
Any suggestions?
