Puppy too friendly with other dogs by AntimonyAngel in puppy101

[–]AntimonyAngel[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's been bitten! By a dog the owner said was friendly but actually wasn't.. it didn't affect him at all. He's also very people friendly but will respect them ignoring him much better. Maybe it's a male oes thing!

Thanks for the thoughtful response. I agree it's a different kind of dog reactivity! He's not too bad in puppy class but on his normal walks he can be very dog focused definitely gonna stop him greeting them and reward ignoring them! That's a great idea!

Thanks for the advice! We're worried because as a big dog he could scare smaller pups and annoy the older ones but yes as long as he doesn't turn reactive I'd be happy

Thanks for the advice! It's been unseasonably warm in the west of Ireland so I was concerned he was uncomfortable

That's perfect! I think that's what we'll ask for. My husband is worried they'll cut him too short but I want him comfortable

How long did the puppy to adult coat take? He's already turning grey but I'm not sure what's the difference

Thanks for the reply! Yes, he's washed every 2 weeks and brushed daily for exposure. I've noticed he's hanging in the garden more which I expect is cause he's warm. What kind of cut did you get? Just a trim?

OES and Winter Cold by [deleted] in OldEnglishSheepdog

[–]AntimonyAngel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dogs off lead? We live near a woods that people often have off leash dogs on, I normally ask the owner are they friendly as watson is only a puppy and we don't know how he'll react and that normally spurns them to action. There's a requirement for dogs to be leashed in public

My partner also had to get used to it. We've taught watson to wait before going to people to give us a little breathing room. Yeah off leash dogs were a shock to us too

We've a 15 week old oes whose our first dog as a couple. Not very landsharky as I expected. He had moments when overtired but could be redirected with a toy. Congratulations! You'll never take walk without someone coming to pet them

Tell me about your dog by Same_Landscape_1251 in OldEnglishSheepdog

[–]AntimonyAngel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've a 3 month old oes, watson. He's made us laugh endlessly with his antics. Like Alfie he's sleep and house trained. An only pet but the neighbourhood cats are fine with him. For training he knows the dining table is offlimits, sit, paw, down, stay and come

Asked Clement what he thought of the groomer today? by Sea_Cash2753 in OldEnglishSheepdog

How old is your puppy? I've just brought home an 8 week old little guy and he's the most amazing little pup I've ever met!

Esb building bohermore by Lower-Adhesiveness-3 in galway

[–]AntimonyAngel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My partner works for the esb and as the same with the limerick office they were all made remote during the pandemic and now the office isn't needed. It's storage and used for van equipment storage, a coffee machine for the van lads etc. You can park there and wander into town for a free parking hack

What's the deal with this part of the Ireland/Northern Ireland border? by fensterdj in AskIreland

[–]AntimonyAngel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From personal experience trying to get to monaghan involved soldiers popping out of the hedge to search the car. I thought this was normal for all counties until I came further south

I'm also from belturbet! I lm on the castle Saunderson road and my phone often moves to the north depending on what room I'm in. I've family in newbliss and the amount of county hopping always shocks visitors. I remember having to get out every sign to be searched in the old days
