To anyone who has recently got a new dog

[bluntblaze]

are you getting puppy or a dog if you dont want it to chew your house to shit like mine did i say get a dog that already trained:rastasmoke:

na i would recomend getting a puppy. i have a 1 1/2 year old springer spaniel thats the sam dog as what lip was talking about and there cool as hell. never really had any troubles with him shitting or pissing in the house after the first month just be sure to let them out in a garden or somewhere outside, when he used to do his buisness in the house i would walk him over to it say 'whats this' in a sturn voice and give him a tap on the nose, he soon caught on, its good because your nt just smacking em your shwing them what theyve done wrong. he never really chewed shit either but i kno my grandads dog did when she was a pup nt sure what he did but i can find out for you if you realllly want me to.

anyway yer when you getthe dog show it lots of love and affection and they wont be to hard to train.

o yea whenver you train them when they do the thing write give them tonns of praise and a treat

My mate has an ex police sniffer dog, erm... i dunno what their called, like a spaniel... maybe anyway, i almost always have gear so when i go round there it's a game of find the weed. He's one of the dogs that are trained to sit down when they smell out the drugs... and he always sits down infront of me at the door and he wont let me through, but when my mate whistles he walks away... now that's good training...

I wouldnt mind having a ex police dog, but i'd want an alsasion [sp? lol]

Nice and violent.

Proabably a German Shepard

No, it was a spaniel. Im know now.

But thats nothing compared to the two great danes my mate had, he was the guitarist in my old band, and these were BIG great danes... as though they wernt big enough all ready... they're were dog ponys..

Breeds of dogs have some really significant differences. For example, chows are a breed that is said to be toilet trained from birth. Beagles, on the other hand, seem to have more problems getting their mind around the "pee outside the house" concept. If you know what characteristics you want in a dog, check out some dog books and you're likely to find a breed that fits your life better.

sorry josh have to disagree on that bit.when u was a kid did your mum stick your nose in your piss and shout at you if you had an accident lol.
Newspaper is the best way to house train your dog,never hit the dog, rewards is the way to go.

http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/searchcategories.htm this site has a little quiz you can take to see what breeds might work best for you and it tells you about each breed. If youre not sure you're ready to take on the training a puppy might need just adopt an adult dog. There are more adults that need loving homes than there are puppies so you'd be saving one, and adults can be a lot easier to start with because they already know the basics (like not going to the bathroom inside). When we got my dog he was 6 months so he was already potty trained but he still had a very puppy like personality. Good luck if you decide you want to get one.

First off you should get a Pit, there easy to train as long as you dont let it be "boss" in the relationship. you just show him who's The dog owner (dont hit though) be aggressive and dominant.
