Thanks Sundance!
I'm going to get some petcalm for him since it is homoepathic! Thank you! Hope you are well.
Thank you! We will keep trying. He loves the BF - gets excited whenever he comes over - brings him a toy, etc. I'm still in shock that it happened!
Thank you! I hope he is not overly attached as you suggest. That is not my goal at all! I woke up this morning wondering if I just give him too much love!
He is very accustomed to routine - my...
Yes - I started googling this last night - and it does sound like that. Barley and I have had really had each other (and Moby for the first year and 1/2) but I guess I did not realize how attached he...
Hi!
I have not talked with a trainer - because I never expected something like this to happen. He can't wait to leave me when I bring him to the day care - and is super excited (again overly so) to...
Oh my god. I was on this forum quite a lot when Barley was a puppy and when I had to put my old lab down. Barley is now over 3 - I am through my divorce and have been seeing someone seriously for...
OK - thank you all - I feel better. I was worried maybe something was wrong with him that he could not hold it. About to go to a late work meeting and will feed him half - throw the ball a bit and...
Well - let me preface by saying that Barley IS growing up. He is more mellow - thank god - and does pretty well with less walking and more time at home alone. He is even getting better about the man...
Thank you! He used to sleep in my room in his crate - and I just took the crate out about 3 months ago since it was so huge and he was doing fine without it. He sleeps in his crate at the dog sitters...
Wow! That is a gorgeous dog!! But boy am I glad Barley is no longer 13 weeks. Exhausting!
Hmm - grabbing a toy is a really good suggestion. Barley likes to do that when I come home. I will try that when someone comes over - maybe he won't jump on them.
Thanks!
Maybe you can help me with this latest incarnation of terrible Barley behavior? We spent the night at Stephen's house for the first time night before last. I exercised him twice - we took him out - I...
Ha!
Well - yesterday I had him walk and feed him with me and Barley was maybe a bit better while we were hugging. (I don't really hug my mother or friends as LONG as I might hug him - so Barley...
I know!!! Can you believe it has been two years! When I first started posting on this site - I was terrified that I was going to lose both of my dogs to my ex-husband. I got so much support from you...
I think a huge portion of it is excitement - a new person to play with! I do think he is bothered and confused by me being in close proximity with someone else. But - you are right - and I did think...
Oh boy. Maybe this is a crazy topic, but since my divorce two years ago - (which occurred a month after I got Barley) Barley has basically been my primary focus. But now - I have a new person in my...
I drove with Barley over to a few blocks from the house I had to sell in my divorce in the country. I wanted to collect walnuts as I did every October. I was going to quickly grab a bagful from the...
Oh my gosh - I feel for you - I really do. I hear your stress - and I totally get it. When I divorced my husband - I took both dogs. (Super happy and crazy relieved to have gotten them both...
Well - I had him confined to one room - and one day he ripped apart my mother's dog's bed.... (That was fun to come home to last December while my mother and I returned from the play we had just...
Hmm - well - I always either take him to the dog park or walk him for about 4 miles (about an hour and 15 mins.) first thing in the morning - and that is when he drinks A TON of water. He does not...
I love our dog park in Napa - and take Barley there 4-5 times per week. Barley is WELL-LOVED and loves to play - and tires lots of dogs out. (For which the owners are grateful.) He knows when to stay...
Yikes - I have never been in a scary fight like that (both my boys had been fixed) but Moby was once bitten by a huge yellow lab (and I admit to going off on the owner) and Barley was bitten by the...
Here I am - my second post of the day - after many months of abstinence!
I work from home a fair amount - which means that Barley is home with me quite a bit. However - I have been working up to...
It has been a while since I have posted anything about my crazy Barley (mainly because he is a bit less crazy...) but lately he has been behaving strangely at the dog park. We have an amazing large...
Oh gosh - I am crying reading this. I had to put my Moby down in November - and it is still raw and catches me like a knife sometimes. You are doing the right thing - Montana's kiss told you that. I...
