my last post abt her was when she was 4 months old https://hexbear.net/post/435569 . shes now 8 months and over 50 pounds! she has a much more developed personality now, shes so friendly and playful but can be sassy (prob her being a puppy, we are trying to train her but, both of us being first time puppy owners, we are still figuring it out). she takes up training really quickly tho, its just hard to get her to not bark and snap at us when she’s not getting non-stop attention
shes the best tho! i love her so much and try my best to spoil her w toys, treats, and playtime
PRECIOUS GIRL
Comrade pupper
SO CUTE!!!
Rena is a great name.
thanks! she pulls it off lol
Sounds like my dog. She’s big, smart, sassy, sensitive, suspicious, playful, dominant and very clever. Quite a handful. 3 years old and 75lbs now. I love her.
Some unsolicited advice, whatever you’re doing for training, is probably pretty good, if you’re having trouble you just need to do it more consistently. It’s better to do less things more consistently ,than more things only occasionally. And whatever your partners doing, it’s probably pretty good too, but yall need to be on the exact same page. Seriously. Some dogs are easy, some dogs look for any gaps.
“Well one parent ignored me so it didn’t feel good to do that thing but other parent gave me attention when I did it so guess I’m doing it again LOL!!”-Rena, probably.
Note the behaivors you don’t like. Note their triggers/cues, and plan to have the same reaction/(or often times all you need to do is just not react), to the behaivor. Be exact. Don’t give in. If she’s anything like my dog she’s just trying to party, and sorry big girl it can’t always be a party.
thanks for the advice!
Aww look at those eyebrows so cute
