training

Hi all! My husband introduced himself and our foster-pup Lola a few days ago but I wanted to jump in and ask everyone about their experiences sleep training. Since the majority of Lola's life (all 18 weeks of it) was spent in a small crate with her brother at a pet store, her sleep habits are...

Hi guys, haven't been on here for a while, I've been sooo busy! Anyways I need some opponions on my little situation with Wilson. Ever since we had him (8 weeks old) he has had accidents on his bed, which is completely understandable when toilet training. He's 6 nearly 7 months now and tells me...

Hi all. Let me start out saying that this isn't my first dog, just my first bulldog, and I know all the basics of potty training. I guess what I'm trying to determine is if this is just "normal" bully behavior, or if I'm doing something wrong for this breed/dog. Winston is now 14 weeks old...

So we picked up our now 9 week old English bulldog a week ago. He's doing good, no crate messes, getting better about holding it already. But reading up on crate training and how the crate is supposed to be a sanctuary. I wouldn't say he hates it, he doesn't bark when he goes in, sleeps well in...
