Potty training an adult dog is a lot harder than you might think. Dogs are also somewhat more independent than their younger counterparts which makes losing control of your dog particularly frustrating and annoying. So if you are looking for some help with potty training your pet, then I suggest https://pottybuddy.co/products/potty-buddy Dog Potty Pads !
the law in Sweeden seems to be 6 hours.great show
Just found this podcast and gravitated to this episode first, wonderful content and I was able to catch a great Facebook live on barking brains because you mentioned it. Just getting interested in the field of animal behaviour and it's so hard to find resources and discussion that isn't just regurgitating old assumptions or the same stuff that seems to work most of the time without the understanding behind it. Clearly you have your finger on the pulse as it where, look forward to listening more! :)
i wanted to.like this podcast but the host and guest were pretty darn insulting to pro trainers, dog owners and competitors. once you got past their nastiness, the information was good.
Loved this podcast, best I have listened to anywhere. We so need to hear so much more from Kay - brilliant.🤗
yes!! try having a fit lurcher....oh your dog is skinny and ribby !!
