    Petey will be right there with him! He needs to learn to settle down in public while on the leash.....and not want to PLAY with every dog he meets. Last week the obedience class was just talk....well my very smart manipulative puppy tried every trick in the book to get to the Irish Wolfhound puppy sitting behind us. He tried to go under me, over me and through me, grabbed my sleeve and yanked on me, He was even yelled at by the instructor....twice for barking! I have to say...I WAS MORTIFIED! Now I'm embarrassed to go back to class tonight...but go I must if I ever want this Beast tamed.

    He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog. You are his life, his love, his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart. You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion.

    :D Sorry! Not laughing at you, but with you! Same here! I'm not looking forward to taking him, because I just know he's going to be a rat bag! I was sooo embarrassed when he went off on his little psycho Cujo thing on Monday night! He was barking and whining and wimpering and lunging at this other dog and making so much noise that people came out of their houses to see if it was a dog fight and when they could only see us, (the other couple took off with their dog very quickly, thankfully) I'm quite sure people thought I was beating him!! :o It took me all my strength to get him to settle down, and of course my most commanding voice, which was just drawing more attention! So I hobbled home with him, with my foot bleeding and I contemplated blue murder every limp of the way! Little bugger! But I think he knows he was naughty and I know that the cortizone injection he had at the Vet probably didn't help. I've been given a pamphlet about this really cool dog lead/collar called the Gentle Leader. The vet recommended it. I'm going to get one in the morning before I take him to Obedience School. The guy there said they are a good idea too. Maybe they'd help you with the taming of the beast? :)

    Oh good! I was wondering if anyone else had used one! I got him a choker chain but I only used it a couple of times, and it barely slowed him down at all, and I think he was crushing his own windpipe with it! :( I had to stop using it! I couldn't stand to watch it!

    So when the girl at the vet showed me this thing I thought it would be perfect for Lukin. I just hope he thinks so! ;)

    Is it difficult to do the adjusting cb? Like if you're right in the middle of a doggy confrontation, Lukin he goes off like a frog in a sock, I don't have a lot of time to pull him up if it happens unexpectedly, so I can't see me mucking about if I have to do too much adjusting and stuff.
    NOPE!!!

    no adjusting at all......you adjust it to fit him when you first get it and that's it......it will amaze you how much better control you'll have over him.....:)

    Awesome! :) Thanks cb! I hate having to wrestle him and he wears me out because he so strong. If he didn't pull so much I could walk him much further and he'd be a whole lot happier with that I expect! :)

    That's exactly what he does! At the start of the video anyway, except that it's not aggressive, it seems more playful to me, than aggressive. He doesn't growl or attack, it's more like he wants to play and he's saying hello. But he's hell bent on it and doesn't really make sure the other dog wants to say hello first! :rolleyes:

    Anyway, the grabbing him by the scruff of the neck and rolling him over is something I can do with him, because I've been doing it all week to get his cream on his itchy bits! :)

    Thanks cb! :)

    :) They seem to have a knack for that, dogs. Looking at you till you melt! :D
    Lukin has this way of tilting his head, and just tonight he was sitting on the couch with me and I was tickling his paws and I discovered that he is actually ticklish! He pulled is paw up underneath himself so I couldn't get to it, put his other paw over my hand to stop it and then curled back his lips in the most amazing smile and poked his tongue out at me! :D I nearly wet my pants laughing at him, he was sooo funny! :D

    :D They are sweeties that's for sure! She sounds lovely!

    Lukin even knows how to give me cuddles now! If I say, "Give Mummy cuddles" and put my arms around him, he flops back against me and lifts his head up to my shoulder and rests it there. And I usually get "kisses" about then! :D
