All about dogs - dog breeds, dog training and behavior, news affecting dog owners or handlers, puppy pics, etc.
Rules (Will be refined later on).
-
Don't be a dick. This should cover most things, just keep in mind that everyone started somewhere and try to be helpful rather than rude or judgmental.
-
No personal attacks based on training style or tools.
Discussion of balanced training including proper use of aversives is allowed here. -
All breeds and mixes are welcome. You can criticize backyard breeding practices but don't pile on people because they own a specific breed or prefer purebreds or mixed breeds.
-
Do not support backyard breeders or puppy mills. Please do not link to or suggest buying from high volume breeders or those with an obvious lack of standards and testing.
-
Do not help or support fake service animals. Please do not encourage people to buy fake service dog vest or ESA letters to get around rental or other restrictions & do not give advice on how to misrepresent a dog as a service or support animal.

That's cute
He's a 9 month, 57 lb lab. Sometimes it's cute. Sometimes not as much lol.
lemme guess. when he steps on the balls.
Bingo! Both me and my kid have fallen victim!
I think it's their way of checking if we still love them.
Well, he just wants to be your heavy blanket
The gf has always had issues with letting myself be the dogs and kids jungle gym. She doesn't see the irony in letting the cat on her lap, how gross hair balls weekly are, why the bed is gross when you let the cat on it... So much.
But oh the moment something approaches twenty pounds is off limits? Nah, fuck that. Just...
STOP! You just not hop on pop!
