I have a 2-3 year old sheltie mix i adopted a couple of months ago as a playmate for my 7 month puppy. At home, he’s a somewhat normal dog: plays tug of war with the other dog, lap dog attention seeker, loves treats, etc. Sometimes he barks at the other dog, but only when she oversteps her...

Hi! New to the site :) I adopted the sweetest Dachshund Lab mix a little over a year ago. I was mainly taking her on two fairly short walks with my senior Doxie to build a little confidence, and one really long walk/run just her and I. For a long time this was working great. She was gaining...

My dog has a chronic skin condition caused by hypothyroidism and allergies. It has gotten very bad recently with spring and summer and he is currently dealing with MRSP (dog mrsa, basically). He’s on all sorts of meds to try to combat it. Either due to irritation from his harness rubbing or...

Background, 10.5-month-old chonky pup (2/3 of my weight). He is very well behaved the only headache I've been having and the main thing that I've been working on is leash walking. It's a very slow process and I've gotten a lot of outside help. We are currently going to 1 on 1 puppy classes. He...

Hello everybody, I have a 6 month old female maltipoo that is very sweet and well behaved (most of the time). She used to love walks a lot and get really exited to go on one, but last few days she started to run away from her harness and today from the lease itself. it also seems like she...

I adopted a 1.5 year old golden retriever 6 days ago. I think she has mostly been adapting great to her new environment and will happily run around in the house and outside in a fenced yard (mostly concrete, some grass and mulch) and play fetch for as long as you're willing to throw a ball (has...

It's a long post, I very much appreciate anyone reading it and giving advice or criticism! Every time I take pup on walk training outside, half of me die physically, emotionally and spiritually. Background, I live in an apt, puppy is 5 months old and pee-pad trained at home; he is also a big...

I have a 8-year-old, beagle/basset rescue, Penny. I've had her for 6 months. I love her to bits, but she's an absolute nightmare to walk. As expected of a hound dog, she loves to sniff sniff sniff. I understand that it's her natural instinct, and judging by her wagging tail, it is her...

I'm a new dog dad and I have a unique problem that I've never encountered before. My Bernese Mountain Dog is now 10 weeks old and he doesn't like to go on walks. I have a rope leash for him and he likes to bite a piece of it; I have no issue with that. He will go outside, and walk across the...

So my puppy is now 9weeks old and I've been walking her around since she first came home at 8weeks already. The breeder recommended a short walk around the building I live in. She'll take her first vaccination on her 12th week and then 16th. I just read that puppy shouldn't be walked out where...

My reactive and hyper dog, Enzo, is doing really well with a head halter. He's in a training class, and does ok with just a collar and a leash, so long as I'm praising him constantly and feeding him treats. But he's very reactive with other dogs and will pull no matter what outside, unless I...

Finnley is a rather well behaved seven month old husky/shepherd/possibly lab mix. He knows the basic commands, a few tricks, and is doing well on his loose leash training. When people pass by on our walks, with or without dogs (dogs that are older and desensitized to running up to people with...

we got a 11 month old sheep dog 2 days ago she seems very shy she sticks to one spot in the kitchen on her blanket and whenever we try call her to another part of the house she just sits at the door way staring back at us refusing to move and whenever we try put a lead on her and try get her to...

I need some serious help here. My 6 month old min pin/chihuahua/doxie mix only walks on her terms. Every few hours I take her downstairs to pee/poop (I live in a two story apartment) and in the morning and/or evening I try to walk her. Sometimes she is FABULOUS. she walks loose leash, happily...

Was out for an afternoon walk with Lola (my Wheaten Terrier) this past Monday here in Toronto. It was a gorgeous day, sunny and warm, so we strayed a little further than usual on our walk to explore a different area of the neighbourhood. Before we knew it, it was too hot out! I forgot to...

Hello! I have a little pom/unkown rescue dog, almost 3 months. He has insane energy and will go all day with no naps (although will go in his crate "and play" by himself if I have to put him in there). The one thing that tires him out (to the point where he actually naps) is walks. I am worried...

Hey everybody! :wave: We are trying to work on training our 13 week old shiba inu. He is getting sit, stay, come down pretty well (for being a puppy anyways, he has trouble doing those when there are distractions around, and when he doesn't want to). But we also want to teach him to heel now, so...

My one-year-old lab Copper is scared of many things. I don't know why, we've had him since he was 9 weeks old and he's been pretty well socialized with people, kids, etc. but whenever we're on a walk and someone is walking behind us or walking the opposite direction as us on a walk, he starts...
