dog training
heyk asked:


I’m thinking about getting a home dog trainer. How much does it usually cost? I know it depends and the price varies, but what does it generally cost?

I’m thinking about getting a trainer from barkbusters. Anyone heard of them? Are they successful at what they do? Also, in general, do these (dog training) lessons pay off. That is, are they even worth it/ beneficial?

If it helps at all, I live in California.

Beagle
<3 asked:

My beagle knows to come, but I’ve heard that when they are outside it is a completely different ballgame. Anything I can do immediately to make beagles come back and not continue to follow smells. I am worried that one day Jaeger might get loose and he’ll run away because I know beagles tend to be more interested in following sents outside.

We live near the sea and we take our Labrador Retriever to swim twice a week in the sea. Will it harm his skin in any way?

I have a 4 year old male the has some heradatery issues that I can not afford to have him treated. He is beautiful and wonderful with children and loving with everyone. My husband and I do not want to give him up because he is such a great dog but we just can not afford his treatments anymore. Please, help me find him, Boudreaux, a better home! If we kept him our only choice would be to put him to sleep….

dog training
zephyr asked:


I have one adult female dog (standard poodle) and a female puppy (golden retriever) that is 5 months old. The golden has shown a few signs that she will be an alpha female and we have been working on her like crazy to keep her in lined and trained and she’s doing really well. My question is, both females like to romp and play just like any normal dog and I’ve heard that a romp can turn into a fight very easily. The golden is only puppy, but I want to know if it is okay to let them romp like normal dogs or if I should make them stop. They have never had trouble with eachother or anything and my poodle is REALLY well trained, but I’m afraid it might be teaching the puppy how to fight. She’s a smart girl and really sweet, just some pre-aggressive signs have been displayed that we are trying to weed out. If you have had experience with this and youre a trainer please help.
