i agree dont put the pup down out side at all.

hey I think you need to go with what you feel is right for you and your pup. I am going with k9pro because after i read his posts on here (the puppy sticky topics) and thinking about it i realized some of THE biggest mistakes i make with my rotti was because of what i was told was right and what happened in the fear period. I do not want to make these mistakes again. It made him DA (more extreammly domminate) and he actually hated female dogs. I am one that hates seeing young pups ones that you know could not be fully vaccinated being walked. I had a pup who was vaccinated and got parvo (got to love rottis) and he nearly died and i dont know how anyone could risk there dogs for the sake of walking them. so you do what is right by you and your pup. there will always be someone telling you different and there opinions you must choose whats right for you

i will take my boy out 2 weeks after his last needle. i will not risk it before then as my rotti got parvo and i will not go throu that again. if he is in a fear period as im doing the k9pro distance course it will not be til after then as he recommends they stay home in that period. I will take him to pick the kids up etc from when he gets here but no walking until the needles are done

do you crate her at all? might be a way to getting her to chill a little?

HUGS HUGS HUGS, she sounds like an awfully hard pup to deal with all the time. are you taking her to training at all? I am going to do the distance k9pro puppy program maybe have a look at that? you sound like you need some REAL help with this pup she is ruling your life and you will end up resenting her and what she does to the kids they will get a fear of her (specially the baby)

LOL the only place i was going ot recommend its where have stayed all ready there is a farstay that looked great called redgate I think they are on there in the accomation bit

hugs that must be soo hard to feel like that. maybe just keep it to email, say how he is and leave it at that. not too much detail PS i dont think anything you are doing is bad

go back to every 2h taking her to the loo, telling her to go and then making a massive deal of it when she does so she gets that outside is the best place to go.

My pup is a samoyed he will be here next week i will have to go on a looksy at red dot during the week.

just keep an eye on her. dogs eat all sorts of dead disgusting things and are fine afterwards

thats something my 3 year old would do, she has a sick sence of humor. i had my iphone for less then a month she was playing games on it. when i asked where it was she said in the toliet. after conving me it was there i went to look to only get. only joking mummy. and her running off giggling.

with pup on its way and i have forgotten all this puppy stuff i need help, what toys do your pups love? wheres the best place to get them? for chewing i normaly used a pigs ear? anyways ideas and thoughts are welcome.

hey i know your feelings, my pup is coming from vic and im in wa ill let you know how it goes

LOL dont go into the please help thread i just got shot for saying that my dog if it went to or attacked my kids or there mates for no reason would be so quick down to the vets its not funny. my rotti was DA but really it more a domminace thing i would never ever ever let him off (we dont have alot of fenced dog areas in wa anyways)

NO dog can ever be 100% trusted and many dogs with signs of aggression can live happy fulfilling lives with behavioural intervention. If your dog toilets in the house do you decide it will never be toilet trained no matter what you do, and hey, may aswell put it down?? I'd hate to be a dog in your care. To the OP, I agree with most posts, don't let this go untreated, a good behaviourist will be able to help you look at the causes and how to deal with this. Good luck, let us know how you go. ETA - spelling! well lucky you wont be. kids are the most important thing, TT thats your agument, i have never heard of children or adults being severly hurt, or killed by a dog not TT properly. get a grip., this dog is agressive not peeing in the house and as Other Posters has shown all the help in the world wont make u feel anybetter when your dog has ripped into your childs face. I agree no dog can 100% be trusted by the way my dogs are 100% well treated trained and he was loved til he passed away but my children are THE THE most important thing in this world and i will not risk them for a dog that is agressive, regardless of what you or anyother person thinks.

hugs to you and your family what a sad thing to happen.

LOL i somewhat am like you that was my excuse as well but to my hubby ill show my boy but as i dont live where its suitable for 2 dogs i doubt i would really use him to become a breeder

hey joel, i do AGREE with you that this is probly not all the dogs fault. but its in the breed and the temp of this dog, and a child is a child and a dog is a dog. I dont like the idea of rehoming agressive dogs, as you dont know if in 5 years these people wont have kids OR a kid comes over. I find all agressive behavoir unacceptiable. but kids need protecting and are more easy damaged. my kids and the saftey of there mates are number 1 in my house. adults number 2. i had a little dog which i rehomed to an older lady whos kids had grown up and she was alone. he was an extreamly nervous dog who loved to be babyed and i dont do that in my house. (dogs are dogs not people) he was a nipper if the kids did something he would mouth them and warn that way. I have a baby who was about to crawl and is animal obbesssed. i could not and would not risk it. he never agressively bit the kids But my trust was gone and if i turned my back for a sec and my baby got hurt i was not going to risk it. (3 kids its easy done lol) I know that my rotti would eat a person who jumped the fence. But he would never ever hurt a child or someone invited in. i never doubted it. (i have pics of my oldest sitting on him ) he loved kids and would do anything to keep kids safe.

i was commenting on joels i cant beleieve it statement. not the rest,

im assuming you dont have kids then?? this dog has gone for a child and THAT in this house hold is a deal breaker, if it was a toy dog or a giant breed regardless. my children and the saftey of other peoples children are THE most important thing. the other stuff to me can be sorted but is still getting extreamly close to crossing the line. i have had large breeds (my first was a rotti) and he never ever ever did this stuff and as much as i loved him if he did that to a child he would have been gone. as a mum you have to choose where a line in the sand is and that is the line. that dog could have riped that childs face off before anyone could have moved) ill stand by my comment as i know i as a mum i would never ever forgive myself if that was my dog and it hurt someone

im going to put my flame proof suit on here. if that was my dog who snaped at a kid regardless if the child was (luckly on the other side of the glass). is a deal breaker and would be out of my house and down the vets so fast its not funny. might be a stranger child but that child did not pervoke it (im assuming if it did different story) I think the safety of children is the most important thing in the world and no dog it worth my child or another persons child. that dog can never ever ever be trusted regardless of a behavoiursit assessing and working with you. this dog is yours and your responibilty but that is a deal breaker in my opinion.

hmm this is hard. did your mum and dad ok this pup? sorry but i dont think this is fair on the pup spending 90% of the time locked up is not ok. i think you need to either talk it out with mum and dad so pup is out more or giving this pup away and waiting til you are not at home to get another

1 more week 1 more week til my fluffy white ball comes home

i forgot to add what breed?

could u ask the breeders??
