I would definitely vacuum more and keep the Stella off the furniture (sad I know :( ). I had very bad allergies growing up and my mom also used all of this allergy free bedding in my room. It was...

Is it really, really exceptionally humid where you are as it is here? Humidity in summer made my sister react more to her cat than she did in drier winter air. Sounds weird, I think, but it did. ...
Have not had a problem or know anyone with that type reaction but heard it does happen.
My suggestions: Brush daily, which you are doing. Vacuum way more often, daily if you have to. Dander...
That is adorable! They look like they are knocking on the door and asking for cookies.
Our neighbors have an adorably sweet pittie mix named Doug that they took in when he was dumped on the...
All of this. I would estimate it would take mine about a month to drop 5 pounds. I don’t usually weigh them but Chloe’s “puffy” stage when I decide to cut her back a little is usually about 2...
I can't really say, because I usually just adjust food by 1/4 cup up or down until they are back to a weight I prefer. You can still feed the 30/20, just feed less of it.
You can add some low...
Her vulva will decrease in size significantly, but probably not go to the initial size. It will become much more firm again and the bleeding/ discharge will stop. You likely have at least a few...
Wonderful pictures...and such a well behaved pooch!
Today was the first, beautiful, sunny Indian summer day this fall.
Thankfully it's Sunday, so Cookie and I enjoyed it :bigsmile: The colours were amazing.

If it's the yellow puppy on the proplan focus puppy bag, his name is Colin. I see him at shows sometimes, although he's a big boy now! Still has a handsome, kissable face!
They can and do. However, usually not in the first year. They can though. A lot of time food allergies to something that they aren't born with don't develop until 4-5 years. So pretty rare for a pup....
You might think about management (crating while preparing and eating food, for example) and teaching a really good leave it and drop it and even a bring it. Prying food from mouths doesn't always...
Milo just hit 8 months and is starting with the teenager backtalk and general dis-obedience. He got hold of my phone somehow and strutted past me like "I got your phone and you aint gettin it back!"...
We feel your pain. I got a bit smug with Tobey as he was a really mellow and well behaved puppy. Until this month. He's 6 months old and really getting obnoxious at times. Seems to forget a lot...
Do you practice "nothing in life is free?" That technique was VERY effective when Kimber went through her testing phases. In an a nutshell, before you give the dog anything (food, treat, attention),...
Yep, teenagers. Keep training, up the exercise, and how that it will end soon! Bubba is on the back end of this. He still has some teenager tendencies, but gone are the days where he would look me in...
Sending you patience, patience and more patience. This too will pass.
You are definitely experiencing a lot of what I did when Bacon was that age. A lot of the time, I felt like Bacon was giving me the "puppy finger" and saying I'm choosing not to listen to you. He...
I would say common sense really comes into play here, the 5 minute rule is more for those that are lacking. Honestly, there are a lot of them, we get people here that put Pepsi on their dogs food.

I actually find it much easier to teach leash manners when they are very young, before they get in the habit of doing it wrong. That’s part of why I do take them on walks at a young age.
All of the puppy classes I've ever attended or looked into have included some element of play. That aside, the post did say that these were specifically "puppy socials" which are all about supervised...
x100. lab puppies play ROUGH (some adults too) and growl are just vocalization. growls DO NO MEAN AGGRESSION. they are just a sound dogs make. what they mean depends on what's going on with their...
Unfortunately, as the puppy gets bigger and matures, things are probably going to get worse between the puppy and the child. She is not aggressive. She is a Lab puppy. As Dxboon mentioned, Labs are...
Your dog is still very young. You haven't even gotten through adolescence yet! And, if he is chewing on furniture, it's really an issue of management.
Bring a crate with you. My dogs are adults...
