lab_called_Marli

Hey all , well it is the middle of winter that's for sure hahaha.. Question : I bought marli one of those cover's you bought on the dog i forget what the exact wording , it one of those really good one's with really warm fur on the inside of it to help make her body warm , anyway whenever i put it on her she tries to rip it straight off and will keep biting at it till she gets it off. any ideas how i can stop this ?? ( i end up taking it off her and she doesn't get to wear it ) as i know it would be a benefit to her if she wore it during this winter period.

mmmm doesnt really answer my question hehehe , how can u tell if they arent handling being outside in the winter then ?

Hey all , WOW i havent been on here for about 6 months now , Marli turns 1 tomorrow YAY some treats coming her way hahaha. i have just got a question.. what temperature can labs handle ? as it is coming heavily into winter now here in Sydney i was just wondering because Marli Perfer's to be outside , she does have a kennel with plenty of blankets and some of those throw rugs that keep the warmth in them. Labs being known to handle the cold i was just wondering ,

thanx all You have made me have some idea's , i could 1. go to vinnie's or someting and buy a few sheets double them up and cut them up to size to fit Marli's bed then maybe just cable tie down the sheet and put her blankets over the top at night time... 2. hessian cover sounds like a idea i bought one bag today to cut up to try to place over the corner's but didnt work. so maybe ill buy a few more and place over the bed then just cable tie it down. but i think i will try the sheets first thank you

Hey all WOW i havent been on here for a few month's now , not sure if anyone remember's me hahaha My question is , How can i prevent my Lab from destroying its own Bed ? We had bought a kennel at first for Marli but she ended up chewing it and destroying it ( as it was one of those wooden one's bad mistake self to note get maybe plastic next time ) So she now has one of those beds that sit about 5cm of the ground and have four metal corner's with the mesh stuff in the middle. The problem is the one we have is the bed that has in each corner four little gap's about the size of your fist but enough for Marli to get her teeth into, she has already completely wrecked one to piece's ( meaning she ripped all the mesh off ) got her a second cover and has started again. I did try a home job went and got the strongest tape on the market and taped up the four corner's but this morning she had chewed past one corner lucky i woke up early enough to take the bed away from her. any other ideas to prevent this ?? i have tried putting Hash over it but wasnt strong enough , im looking for maybe some old skool ideas ?? as those spray things are rubbish that they say prevent dogs from chewing as i found out my dog LOVES citrus stuff so they wont work either. the worst thing will be if she does wreck this one again i did find a shop that sell's bed's that are completely covered and have NO gaps for the teeth to get into but they are also more $$$$ any ideas please let me know ! P.S i have given her more toy's etc she is just over 6 months old..

Hey guys , just a quick question , my Lab is 10 weeks old tomorrow. But she is still going through the phase of when she keeps biting myself and partner im guessing this is due to the teething process it isnt anything to bad at the moment but i was just wondering how long does this process go on for ? and any ideas on how i can stop it in the mean time ? When she is going for say like my hand or something i try to place a toy in front of my hand for her to get first ....
