I would stay away from sticks. Try knee bones. I let mine chew them all the way down. Also I like nylabones. The huge harder ones, I think they call them for severe chewers or something (Robert does not like them). Anyway a pack of knee bones should be good. The pup still pick up anything it finds on the road/yard though. You just take it from them.

A couple of my neighbors have sent labs and labradoodles to board and train. The dogs forgot how to walk on a leash after a few months. I think the issue is not the behavior per se, but the gap between the skill set that dog requires and what we are able to offer. So a successful board and train experience would make that gap a bit narrower, but it is not really a dog that is being fixed… if that makes sense. Like in all the dog training classes we go/watch, it is not really the dog that is being trained 🙂

Check out the last AMA from yesterday or the day before. There was a question that was similar to yours. His advice was to stick with the leash. https://youtu.be/aOOnK-SVHoM

I seem to remember Robert does not recommend ecollars for lunging. I have used them with success, but may be there was a bit of luck involved. It might be worth to put in a question to Robert in the member chat or AMA on what are the cavets/advice on using ecollar for lunging.

Robert has addressed it a couple of times. I do not recall if it was on lessons or AMAs. Perhaps someone will jump in. But I would search the lessons. The 2021 AMAs are also searchable.

This afternoon, just after I mentioned that I did not remember Robert’s advice on tugging… LOL
Good thing there was some nail behind it 🤪. This was the adult female. I hyped her up with 2 or 3 misses and she went a bit crazier. Totally my fault.
Did not hurt nearly as much as the puppy giving me a bloody lip for the 3rd time as he tried to engage me in play 😛
He is such a sweetheart. 15 weeks, and he went downstairs and opened the doggy door and did his business outside for the first time. I’m sure there will be mishaps, but he did daddy proud today.

Thinking of it, what she did was to anticipate that I was going to pull again in the same direction. Doh 🙄
