  1. hey I have a lovely samoyed boy. but please dont think they are all lovely and plasid etc etc. mine is not he is HARD WORK. he tests me all the time he is a challange he is hyper he is SUPER smart and you can undo all training with him in 5 seconds. He is good with kids but must be watched he cant be trusted. He has challenged us more then once and has moods where i just wont deal with him til they pass.

    BUT i still love him. He is who he is.

    He can stop eating and decide that he wont like what im feeding him for weeks on end. and its ALWAYS a battle of the wills. They are not like any dog you have owned before.

    My boy we call the people slut he loves going out and meeting other people and will choose people over dogs. but at home he is hard work.

    I read so much saying how wonderful family dogs they are but they are alot of hard work to get them there.

    As a pup my boy was sooo good and he has got worse as he has gotten older. he is only just over one now LOL but he is starting to get good again.

  2. funny how its about a different dog yet the dog was 2.5K with a 1.5K deposit :rofl: but we totally would not think its the same dog. oh thats right just on sell it in the trading post like you posted in the first one :eek:

    i just had another thought. we got given a dog by a realative we called the breed contact was the same there was no refund for relative even when he was a pup.

    also they could actually sue u for more then the pruchace price as there is a contract saying about a litter. thats money they can no longer get.

    who is going to pay good money for an unruley young dog who needs alot of training. if you cared about this dog it would be back in the breeders arms. where she can put the work into makeing her a good dog. that is going to cost money

  3. yep dog grooming is a sucky job at times. I used to and dont do it anylonger. I remember this poor poor newfie i had. the most lovely dog and i could have stoped and called the rspca. this dog had what look like an entire poo stuck to it. it smelt like ammonia. and was completely matted and covered in sand. it was just heart breaking i spent probly 1/2 day sorting this dog out for bugger all. and never saw it again. im sure it was just put out the back til it got that bad again.

    I did have a pushy owner like the OP. but i did it as he offered my double for his chow chow. was not the nicest dog to do (had such a thick coat) and the guy stayed as apprently it could be agressive. the guy was like wow he must like you as he is normaly not very freindly (thanks for saying that NOW grr). nice dog another i never saw again. He worked away and had split with the wife. seen what state the dog was in and payed me to groom him as he was so up set about how the dog was.

  4. If this dog is growling when told to do something it does not want to do - it does not have good manners. Its just picking its issues.

    Your friend needs a good dog shrink to have a look at the situation - please, not bark busters. Try Kathy Kopellis-McLeod - she is very good.

    If your friend would like Kathy's contact details, let me know and I will pm them to you.

  5. Hi i have a friend (i dont want to go into too much detail about said person)

    She has asked me what i think and im not sure so i thought i would ask on here. She has a Spitz breed dog. She is a lovely lovely dog with great manners and has had alot of training. BUT she has this thing that IF she is doing something naughty and her owner says NO at her in a gowly voice (this dog has never been hit or anything like that) she will spin around and growl. its not been one time its been a few. She is semi standing her ground at the owner Growl at her and then will bolt. The dog was not cornerd or anything.

    She has chidren and is concern understandably

    Said dog has been known to do things like leap onto the couch and then when told to get off she will growl at the owner. and then will get off.

    what do you think??

  6. i think MOST dogs give warning. but as a dog groomer i have seen dogs who do not warn and just snap at you. I can read most dogs but the ones i was always careful of where border collies. I had 2 just snap at me. no warning. My vet boss said then same that there is some dogs that just dont warn you. they just snap. this was not from a newbie vet and a extrealy good vet at that.

    also the parents or the owners might not be able to read the dogs.

    hope the little one has a full recovery and can learn to love dogs again.

  7. i agree with others you need to get some propper help him. he has done it once and it needs to be fixed before there is a next time and he makes contact and then it might mean putting him to sleep.

    I would not be playing the waiting game. As vigilent as you might be it might be your back gets turned for a few seconds and thats all it takes for something to go terribly wrong.

    and with more then one child its easy to take your eyes off them.

  8. hi guys. the reason why is is not desexed is that it makes them loose there coat alot more and as we only have 1 dog at a time him being entire was not really an issue.

    I believe he is marking not just peeing.

    He is very obediant normaly. he listens to me straight away. i would not say he is naughty (bar this) He is 1 and does 1 year old things but i would say he was a terror at all. bar 1 other issue this has only been it.

    i was thinking back on when i think he has done it and it seems to be when him and the cat have been playing heaps. he leaves her when i say so just will go back to her after a bit and start playing.

    I have today being a nice day put the cat out and got him in and he has not even looked sideways at anything been really good and not done anything wrong. he has played with the kids and is now sitting at my feet.

    Out the back he only pees on the grass he has never peed on anything eles.

    the trigger is the cat and seems to be when they play for ages. maybe when he gets worked up he does it???

    He is not agressive or nasty to the cat. She will actually come back for more. She is a bengal and is as loud cat. Just seems to get over the top and trys to hump her and then the peeing thing has happened

    Im thinking of ending the cat and him playing and if he is in I'll have her somewhere so he cant get to her and see if this helps more... then reteaching him that she is not to be played with at all.

    Do you think this may help??

    thanks for all your thoughts and sugestions

    Just so you know what traing he does know. he sits drops on hand signal and by just voice. he stays, does touch, shakes paws by saying left or right. he does stand. He will not touch his tea with out my say so and he will not look at his tea he keeps eye contact with me, He heals. gives, goes back. He is not a bad mannered dog i have done ALOT of work with him :)

  9. Hey im in need of some advise.

    My samoyed has taken to marking. I believe he is marking where our female indoor cat goes.

    This morning was the first time i actually courght him in the act. another time he did it on her litter tray and i think but we cant be 100% certin it was him (cat has issues her self when stressed) on a beanbag,

    I have blocked off the path to the back of the house so 1 she can get peace as he harrasses her to no end. and 2 as thats where the litter tray is.

    SO this morning he peeéd on the thing blocking the way.

    He has also been courght trying to hump the cat which he was told no for and sent outside. I have also been keeping a much better eye as the cat gets sick of it but will not go away just screams. so i now watch him at all times and tell him to leave her and he will listern for a bit and will go back.

    He is not desexed and is 1

    I am prepared to desex him if this will help really im happy to do anything.

    anyways HELP

    thanks heaps

  11. I have learnt alot from this forum and taken alot of advise but one thing i think i should not have taken was about not being able to take pups food and give it back or pat pup while eating.

    I did this with my first dog and after reading all the stuff on here i did not with my current and he ended up my resource guarder. He was not bad but i got help as soon as it started.

    I wont make that mistake again.

    I want to know that if my dog gets something like a cooked bone i can get it back with out the worry of been bitten.

    I now can not trust him (as much as you can trust any dog) with being able to remove things he is not allowed.

    Sounds like you are on track with your pup good luck.
