questions about some behavioral changes i've noticed

[Sophiesmama]

the way I come across? how's that?

this is why I hardly ever post here. too many holier then tho folks who seem to put there dogs on a pedestal above humans.

your right tho, you don't know me or my dog and obviously you read to fast or you wouldn't be telling me to get my dog more exercise when in the original post I he get's enough and I even re-quoted it on page 2

And i wanted this thread locked or deleted to keep someone else from having there time wasted by reading all this off topic crap

I think alot of this is him not getting the same amount of exercise he did during the summer, but we do the best we can and I stand out in the freezing cold and rain to play fetch every day when i get home from work and my wife and 13 year old do that a few times during the day but he's got so much energy its hard to keep while tired during the winter months

or could it be that he's going into heat? he's still got his male parts

anything else I should prepare for with the 1 yr old milestone just around the corner?

I did read your post. In your original post, you said your dog was not getting the same exercise he got in the summer. Not as you indicated subsequently when you said that your original post said that he gets enough. A puppy that doesn't get enough exercise can be a pain sometimes. I was responding to your original comment. Anyway, good luck and I hope it works out for you.

He's beautiful! Of course we can still be friends! We often spar back and forth with each other on here! LOL! It would be pretty boring if we all agreed all the time!

xkill, if my Charlie was laying in a bed of leaves like that, he'd be doing nothing but trying to eat them all. lol Sometimes I think I could train him with leaves for treats.

I predict I'm going to have recall problems when I move back to the states in 6 months and get Charlie more room. Around here it's far too dangerous to let the poor boy off the leash not to mention I'm sure Japan has strict leash laws. I'm in Tokyo by the way.

Just a heads up. Through members choice many years ago, this forum is very lightly moderated and this doesn't suit some people.

I also post occassionally on a fully moderated site and i find it too restrictive and also prefer this type of moderation.

We do not lock threads and only very rarely delete then as you will have seen from the outdoors/indoors thread.

If you ask a question then you will get opinions and just as people don't spell or punctuate correctly, some only speed read posts and make what they consider to be a helpful post which may or may not take into account all of what you have said.

I sense you getting irritated at posts that were made to give what these people thought may be helpful suggestions. If you don't like their replies then ignore them.

You should know that people who take the time to post don't get paid for their help and not everybody has a good day every day !

We are that sort of Forum.
