GBK replied to Cynthia Forget's discussion Aggression"That is great to hear Cythia! A little work, a lot of love, and you are on your way to a wonderful relationship. You will barely remember these troubles by the time Charlie is 2 and a perfect gentleman :) Look forward to your…"
"Charlie and I are doing much better. He has no free time in the backyard on his own. He is always on his lead. So I am letting him know that he is not the boss in the backyard. I think with a little more time we both will be…"
Lisa and Daisy Doodle left a comment for Cynthia Forget"I just read about your issues with Charlie but I really thing most are unchecked puppy behavior. You got a lot of good advice.
I just wanted to come to your page and personally thank you for rescuing him in the first place, I can see why though, he…"

Joanne ~ Spud* replied to Cynthia Forget's discussion Aggression"Ditto! And GBK you have told me Buddy and Spud are a lot alike. Cynthia, keep in mind, GBK is a certified therapy dog. Gentle ( lots of puppy behavior) with lots of training.
Really, I think you have an untrained big pup on your hands. Easy to fix,…"
"Sounds a lot like my puppy who is now 10 months old. He behaved exactly the same way around 7-8 months. He would run and jump up to nip at elbows and hands, tug and latch onto shirts or jackets and all the while he was growling…"
Joanne ~ Spud* replied to Cynthia Forget's discussion Aggression"My Spud did this at the same age or at least this is what it sounds like you are describing. He is not aggressive at all. Still, when I go to the basement, get in a shower, or start a lawn mower he jumps and barks.
He is put in a sit! I take a…"
"Hi Cynthia and Welcome to Doodle Kisses!!
You have gotten some good advice here from some very experienced smart ladies! Charlie is a handsome doodle and I applaud your efforts in rescuing him and trying to make him the best boy he…"
Jane, Guinness and Murphy replied to Cynthia Forget's discussion Aggression"I agree. Clearly the six classes didn't help you to deal with the "real life" behavior problems. I would definitely get a trainer to work with you in the yard and on your walks. I'd look for a trainer who has…"
GBK replied to Cynthia Forget's discussion Aggression"It's funny, and I don't know why, but my Buddy used to do this too. Maybe he thinks the territory of the yard is his, or maybe because it's a larger place he decides he wants to "play". I agree with Ginny, it seems it is…"
BG and Gavin replied to Cynthia Forget's discussion Aggression"Dogs are really situational learners. I think getting a trainer to do some private sessions with you in the back yard to evaluate him is the best idea for now."
Adina P replied to Cynthia Forget's discussion Aggression"It sounds like you just need a different trainer or different obedience class. One that focuses on reliable obedience and the end goal of which is a dog that respects you and obeys on and off leash. Dogs don't generalize. …"

I just wanted to come to your page and personally thank you for rescuing him in the first place, I can see why though, he is absolutely beautiful.
Good luck with the Training. I know it will work, just takes time and a loving owner!
