 11:50:49 Sway| Yep I trained my dogs myself🙂 not much to say with Minga lol cause she tries to murk people and ity her jumps sometimes, but my rescue Shiya and my dog Ive had since I was 10(LiLi) I both trained. LiLi and I did 4H dog club, and got BIS at the show:) |
11:45:51 Hummer| @Lucky, I just need to find the time and energy! 😉 |
11:35:10 Stitch| Going new places can also be a good workout. We take our pit mix out to new hiking areas whenever we can and all of the new things really help to wear him down. |
11:34:47 lucky I bet you could teach him yourself
as long as they have decent drive its pretty easy to teach dogs to do a job |
11:28:55 Hummer| Yeah, I should probably look into teaching him some more things. We used to go to dog-friendly stores to train and I still take him to them, but he is familiar with it. |
11:26:56 Sun/Sunny| -HEE Click- What a pretty colt *_* |
11:26:32 Hummer| The trainer we worked with offers sessions in weight pulling or similar "job like" things, but they are freakin expensive. |
11:26:30 Sway| You can make jobs like teaching them to assist you with daily tasks, hiding things and getting them search for them, all sorts of things |
11:24:52 Hummer| Oh, that's fun! My dog would probably be scared of the wagon or cart being behind him. XD |
11:23:47 Sway| Drafting is essentially what sled dogs do, but with a tiny cart! Like horses do pulling carts or carriages. Minga loved it, and would get so excited anytime I pulled out her harness. Our little wagon broke sadly, so she has not done it in quite some time. |
11:22:11 Sway| (My dog, Minga, was supposedly from the girls female blue am bully, but she later told me they rescued the litter from a bush before their eyes were open🤨 |
11:21:44 Hummer| I guess I'm not sure what "jobs" are available for dogs that are mostly just pets except agility. |
11:21:15 Hummer| What is drafting? I have thought about doing agility with him, but it would be hard because he gets easily scared of new things. |
11:20:22 Sway Gotcha. If he is of standard poodle and golden lineage, he is likely from working/hunting dog breeds, so you may need to give him a job, rather than just walkies🙂
I have a dog thats a mutt who is the same way. She was supposed to be lab x American bully, but we think I was lied to. Shes super high energy and I think inbred because she has screws loose. I started drafting with her, and it really helped her work off energy! |
11:20:16 Stitch and goldens are also generally pretty high energy dogs.

11:19:58 Sky/Dandy | I made the dance team for my school! I'm kinda happy but at the same time I'm not sure. Oh well. |
11:19:34 Stitch| Jumping on people is a very common trait in poodles. Something about them just wants to be eye level |
11:18:13 Hummer| *typical backyard breeder. I think it is more of a breed/temperament thing. |
11:17:47 Hummer| At the time there were lots of other doodles in our neighborhood and we thought they had great personalities so we weren't opposed to getting one. I don't blame his breeder, his breeder was a wonderful lady who really did care and wasn't your backyard breeder. |
11:16:22 Hummer| Oh sorry, golden retriever. |
