MoChara 1,632 Posted September 29, 2012 Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 Pity that Kay - gorgeous dog Here's my pain in the arse who stands around 32tts - so makes it worse :laugh: He looks a very powerful dog Mo , I couldnt handle a dog that strong , Robs a big dog my greyhound , but he is laid back , I doubt I could have handled him if he had been a mentally strong dog as well Kay im telling you this dog had my head away - but i just had to be firm with him, he's a big softie really.. Once he knew who was boss and started seeing the way Mo Chara behaved etc he calmed down alot. Although he is still a big bouncy idiot, he knows his place Quote Link to post
Kay 3,709 Posted September 29, 2012 Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 My boy has only ate 1 sofa so far lol although hes a pain in the arse today... Keeps jumping on top of me in the bed and im too sick to fight him off Dumb as mud this pup is lol Only one sofa you have gotta love pups , that lurcher i had was good & bad in equal measures , I had to get someone to turn all my door handles over to stop him nosing them down & getting it to the bedrooms , I had gates on all the doorways & he shinned them , I replaced dozens of continental quilts of the beds because he would shred them , the bizarre thing in all this was i was home all day & he still wrecked the place I should have crated him as a pup but it was donkeys years ago & a very expensive learning curve Quote Link to post

Big NO NO, ill admit - i couldnt do it, it was hard enough training him when he was a small pup Im not going to sit and say he's not hard work, he is and im not going to lie and say he's 100% perfect now - he isnt ... but he is obedient and does most of what he is asked Quote Link to post
