He's actually an easy dog but with all puppies you have to put the effort in early so that they are well behave later on. It's just like good parenting

It wouldn't even be a mouthful Girlbob the poor thing would starve;-)
Mrs Stony loves dogs, she'd have a fucking houseful if it was up to her. Thankfully, I'm more practical and realise how much work would be involved and who would be doing it. You're right about the parenting. Being a good dog owner is like bringing up a kid, and I'll be fucked if I'm doing that again. I love having the grandchildren over, but the important thing to remember is the fact that we can give them back at the end of the day. We get all the good bits, but without the sleepless nights and projectile vomiting when they're ill.

He might think dogs are genetically modified scientists
your missing the point its a living thing and needs looking after and trained. BUT SADLY many just use them as a lifestyle or a weapons to defend them. yes it should be harder to get a pet dog and if the law was harder on the people who miss use them in stead of small fine should be ban for life. its a choice to own a dog but should be made harder than just taking 1 for free of a mate or family or buy them of the internet
a tax on owning pets is a must for me and if you want to own a dog or cat you must have to be made to think first about the cost of having it for its lifespan. then the laws of miss using them and cruelty animals will see you taken to court and a life ban. the microchip should be the last thing you have to think about. the government should put a better regulation schemes for councils to stop the people just picking up a pet of the internet or friends
Oh jazus. I've rattled the cage now.
Most dog breeds were created by humans and if we don't like traits we can breed them out if we organise it. The dogs themselves don't care if they are the last of their kind.
I like dogs but I'd eliminate the lot of them if it meant no child would ever be hurt by them again. Humans first always! (Except scumbags of course)

That's it in a nutshell, when you first bring them home the first few months are absolutely vital, I work from home but it was still hard
Totally agree, you have to put some serious work in when they are a pup but good habits stay with them a lifetime.
I've trained mine to ring a bell when she needs to go out for a piddle!! :)
