All about dogs - dog breeds, dog training and behavior, news affecting dog owners or handlers, puppy pics, etc.
Rules (Will be refined later on).
-
Don't be a dick. This should cover most things, just keep in mind that everyone started somewhere and try to be helpful rather than rude or judgmental.
-
No personal attacks based on training style or tools.
Discussion of balanced training including proper use of aversives is allowed here. -
All breeds and mixes are welcome. You can criticize backyard breeding practices but don't pile on people because they own a specific breed or prefer purebreds or mixed breeds.
-
Do not support backyard breeders or puppy mills. Please do not link to or suggest buying from high volume breeders or those with an obvious lack of standards and testing.
-
Do not help or support fake service animals. Please do not encourage people to buy fake service dog vest or ESA letters to get around rental or other restrictions & do not give advice on how to misrepresent a dog as a service or support animal.

She kills a lot of critters in the back yard (we have a dog door, so she can go chase them whenever she wants) but surprisingly never disembowels them (and rarely eats them too). I don't get it.
She does "kill" her toys the same way she kills critters- grabbing them by the head and shaking them as hard as she possibly can.
Looks and sounds like lab behavior. Though I'm sure other dogs do the same. I had a lab mix growing up that was great at catching just about everything, but got bored once they stopped moving.
