new mutt in da house

[cookiemonster]

well I gave in to the constant pressure from the wife and kid and got a mutt.





this thing sh*ts for England and chews everything it's not suppose to. (so far it's destroyed the neighbors fence, my decking, a gate, a hosepipe, a solar powered light, the kitchen skirting board).

it's deffo going to naughty dog school....

Good looking dog.

Our most recent mutt (part yellow lab) chewed a ton of stuff when we first got him. Was doing the submissive urination thing to add to the frustration of the chewing. Almost got shipped back. Talked with a trainer friend of ours and she gave us a lot of insight. There's a honeymoon phase when they first come home for about a month (or more) as they try to figure out their place in the new pack (your family). Some training and simple sit/stay/down commands go a long way.

Good luck.

BTW, your black clothes are now forever covered in yellow hair.

Almost all retrievers are great with kids and love chewing and digging. They calm down sometime after the age of 2 and get really mellow. You might want to get rid of any black clothes though, the shedding will cover everything

Looks like a yellow lab to me. What other breeds do you think are in there?
