My 9 m old gsd little son of mine
My Dog is the best thing that has happened to me in a good while he is so smart and nice -- he has a personality of a human and he treats everyone differently who he knows -- he is nice but you can tell, I started training him when he was only 12 weeks old - I had him pottied in a week with only 3 accidents since -- he grew up around people and kids and other dogs and he loves them all -- he doesn't ever show or present anger or dominance, etc with anyone and anything, I have taught him as many tricks as I can think of - I have him pretty damn good trained (strictly) or at least I think so I will explane my methods and ideas and that is what I would really like some opions on, pointers, advice, alll input will be Tried and attempted, Something also I should include is that he is not your normal come home from work dog -- he is with me almost always with me since I have owned -- an exception to that is that I went away to europe for 5 weeks -- and he was with a friend who I trust, with the friend he was not with him as much as with me also if it might help he was born on Nov 26 -- I got him at 12 weeks, so he just turned 9 months if this will help in any wayso here goes 1-- My dog is very affectionate and when I leave him for more than 40 min then I reenter he goes nots and we do this thing where he lays down and I spend like 5 min with him just petting him and playing now if I stop and I guess he does not agree he will start nipping at me not biting just like touching his teeth to my hand I say no no biting a few times and I close his muzzle with my hand, sometimes I just tap his nose with my pointer finger sometimes he persists sometioms he finishes and does his own thing,, then he comes next to me and like kind of cries and is like wow wow wow then eeeeeiii eeeiiiii sound and If I don't give him attention he starts barking then I say stop sometimes he does it for a little while then goes away sometimes longer,, also sometimes just out of the blue like 5 min after coming in for a walk he does the same routine then it just subsides, I don't know --- 2---- when we go out to PEE and POOP like 7 times a day ( well playing is also included in that he is super finikey with pooping like we come in and he wants to go again but he doesn't --- then maybe 1 hr later sale thing and I say no but he persists we go out and nothing?? I feed him a half a bowl in morn and a full at night he usually poops first @ 230-4pm then like 9-11 pm way after food even though I take him out B4 and after dinner 30 min later?? Another one is pulling he is bad with that but only if I let him roam on the long leash Retractable -- but when ne is close he is mostly good -- sometimes it is very hard for me to pullhim away from something he is smelling _ I repremand I do it all and I pull but he just resists?? Don't know please help me [email protected]
