Some background: My dog is pretty submissive. He licks other dogs mouth in deference and almost always shows no dominant behaviors. But he also loves to play with other dogs. He doesn't really like to wrestle, except occasionally, but he loves when other dogs play fetch with him. He is not...

I’ve had my dog for a few years now without having any major behavioral issues. 5 months ago i got a new dog. They got along great and became the best of friends. A month ago all of that changed. My old dog began lunging at my new dog growling and trying to bite her. When i walk into a room he...

We have 2 Thai Ridgeback dogs, a neutered female and her intact brother. About 9 months ago, we adopted a small male puppy of unknown breed, although he looks a bit like a greyhound now. All was well, the dogs got on okay with each other, until about 6 weeks ago when the Thai Ridgeback male...

Just and FYI about myself and my dog. My boy has been perfect with dogs and people since I first got him. I always train my dogs thoroughly to make sure they're highly obedient, well socialised, and I've previously had success training dogs out of dominance based aggression in foster care...

Hi all, we adopted our puppy a month ago when she was almost 6 weeks old. She turned 11 weeks today. She's a mongrel and we have no clue on her breed heritage whatsoever but based on her paws size she is gonna be in the range of a medium dog (she is 3.8kg at 11 weeks now). Initially when we got...

My 12 months old sterilised ridgeback goes every Saturday for a play date with other ridgebacks in the park. They are staying in a hidden corne of the area and play their rough ridgeback games. Another 7 months old (not sterilised) pup started to join the play dates. My boy usually plays nicely...

Hello, Our adult havanese (3 years old) has been a very skittish dog ever since we brought her home. She was incredibly scared of being held up and strangers. We thought this trauma came from her precious owners because as we later found out she was bred in very bad conditions. She is no longer...

So we've had our 10 month german shepherd mix since he was 8 weeks old and have done all positive based training and tried to do as much socialization as COVID would let us. Now he LOVES to meet new people and pups and is generally really friendly. However, sometimes he will ask to be pet (show...

Hi friends! I adopted a rescue from Aruba - he is 12 weeks (15lbs) and a mutt with likely heritage of Ibizan Hound or Portuguese Podengo. I adopted him when he was just shy of 9 weeks old, so he was very young. He is pretty attached to me, but gaining his confidence and I can tell he is a...

We just rescued a 3yo Border Collie/Aussie. We were warned he has "resource aggression" and was given up because he bit a child very severely. We have some experience with dog training and hoped we could teach him manners and give him a loving home. He is a moderately energetic dog but we have...
