Poor Sasha, but I am glad to hear that it is nothing too serious.  She will be good as new in no time. ;)

Rottweiler Discussions / Re: Squirt bottles for training.

I tried using a squirt bottle with my Dobe when he was a pup but he just thought it was the greatest thing to get water squirted at him, it was a game.  I think it works best with cats.  I have a tin can half full of coins and I shake it just slightly to get my dogs to stop whatever it is that they are doing so I can redirect their attention to something else.

Bullmastiff Discussions & Pictures / Re: My dogs were fighting

So sorry to hear about Zeus, I hope he has a speedy recovery.  I have a neutered male and a spayed female and they have gotten into a couple of squabbles but nothing serious, it was over a stick, he had it and she wanted it.  I guess it is hard to say why they got into a fight if nobody was watching them, I would have to say that they didn't get into a fight over"nothing" it had to be something but probably not obvious to you to know exactly what it may have been.  I am sure they could be out together again but it would have to be under supervision so you could intervene before anything happens, very good way to learn dog language.  Of course it would be differrent if they never got along and always fought.  Good luck!!!!!

You did the right thing by grabbing the back legs to seperate them, never ever should you get in the middle of a dog fight, even though it is very hard, it also good if you have a water hose nearby to spray them.

Newfs are so adorable, my friend has one and I can't stop hugging him, he is so cuddly.  I have never seen a silver one before.

What do you mean by biting a little?  Biting objects or biting you?  It is normal for her to be chewing things at her age, she is teething.  Do you want to get another puppy?

Great Pyrenees Pictures / Re: Great Pryness Barking Problems
« on: May 01, 2005, 03:38:41 pm »
You could always train your dog to bark on command and then train him when to be quiet.  When he begins to bark at something tell him good job and then the " quiet" command.  I don't have any experience with the Great Pyr so I am not sure if it would work but maybe it's worth a try.  Good luck and maybe you should get some ear plugs just in case... lol

I couldn't have said it any better myself nettrek4, they are definitely a lot of people out there that are not worthy of a dogs affection.  I always trust my dogs instincts, he is always right.
