| Gee,everyones in on this one eh!.....Got a lot when she was a puppy,now mostly people keep a distance.What realy BOTHERS ME is when an adult,especialy men,just come right up and try to pet her.SHE DOESN`T LIKE THAT!
She usually backs away(wait&see)and sometimes she growls.If there are on-lookers it gives the wrong impression.I`ve noticed that children ALWAYS ASK first,I tell them to let her smell your hand,then they can pet her all they want and she just loves that.

It`s what I hear people say behind my back. At our dog run last year,a nice young women with a Yellow lab(a new member)come in and has a world of information and advice for everyone.O.K you did all the research,you chose the best breed for you,your dog is pure from a good breeder,you`ve got the best trainer in town,feed the best food,buy the safest toys,Yellow lab membership exc...Once there were meny dogs so I took my though-chain out of my pocket so Selket could see.Three people asked me what it was for,I expained in detail the proper use a through-chain.When I walked away she said"oooh,she has to use a chain lol"She then gave a free lecture on the differences between posotive and negative training.She can call it what she wants,the old methods are tried&true.I have controll over my dog and that`s what counts.Her dog is always getting mounted(she`s fixed)even by other females,I should ask her to explain that,lol.  |
