Big Dogs, no Manners

[codegirl]

I really don't know how anyone deals with the puppy "crazies" without daycare! it has saved my sanity more than once.

And the owner is our trainer too, so it helps with consistancy (most of the time). Sometimes I have to *remind* new workers what the rules are with Skadi (no jumping, etc).

I have 2 "big" dogs and theyve become quite good at not jumping up on you, but i think its just worked up that way because i got so frustrated i just kept shouting at them.

They still struggle with the whole trying to climb on your lap thing though, they seem to think theyre still 8lb babies and not 9 stone monsters.

I have 2 big dogs (a St Bernand at 11st and an Irish setter) neither of them jump up as they have never been allowed, i find it very annoying especially if they are wet but also mine could really hurt someone with their weight.
