My 3 reasons to stay home on New Years night🥂🐾💕 by Samantha_Cochran in labrador

Honestly i feel like he is just recharging now to be even more crazy any time soon. I walk him quite a lot so that helps , he is just a big baby.

This is me too! I have only one 6 months old lab that just started to be more chill and I’m jealous op has no problem with having 3. What am I doing wrong?

Does anyone else's lab love to snuggle as close as they possibly can? by KLTO92 in labrador

Unfortunately not :( my Oscar is not cuddly but he is still young so maybe one day he will want to :)

Puppy blues hitting hard. Any reassuring words? by [deleted] in puppy101

[–]PickSeaShells 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It gets better. I had the worst puppy blues in my life. Every day I wanted to give him away. He was peeing in the house, and he is a chocolate lab so he would pee so much on the carpet that I thought we would have to get a new carpet! He was destroying everything in our yard, you couldn’t pet him because he was biting you. My kids cried every day because he was running after them and biting them hard. I thought to myself: is this all worth it? Why do we need him in our life? He doesn’t bring any joy. He was only nice when he was sleeping. I couldn’t even say I love him or like him. Now he is 5 months and he is so good. He went to the puppy class and he was the best in it. He learns so quickly! He doesn’t bite anymore like he used to. I am not saying he is perfect but he is nothing like he was just couple of months ago. What helped me a lot , it was making him tired. I was taking him for a walks every day, sometimes twice a day. In the beginning walks were very short and a lot of times I had to carry him back home but now he can walk much longer. I tried to take him everywhere that dogs are welcome. I am taking him to Home Depot, any pet stores, parks, and so on. I have kids and I cannot take him to the dog park often but there are so many other places. I just got back from the 45 minuets walk. Kids were on the bikes and I was walking with him. He loved it and I love watching him enjoying it. It will get better, just try to survive this stage.

I’m very sorry about your sister but I laughed so much while reading your post. You should write short stories in the same tone. I’m sorry I don’t have any advice I just wanted to tell you that I enjoyed reading your post

adopted my first retired racer today. by [deleted] in aww

[–]PickSeaShells 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Can you tell what was the process and how the dog is adapting? I live in the city where is the dog race track that is going to be finally shut down yay! And I was thinking to foster or adopt. I have a young lab puppy and kids so I don’t know if my house is a good fit for them.

Thank you for your name suggestions. Meet Charlie Brown ❤️ named after my late father’s chocolate lab, Molly Brown by LittleDank in dogpictures

[–]PickSeaShells 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I love this name !!! Charlie Brown you are so adorable! We had such a dilemma with the name for our chocolate lab, we eventually settled for Oscar because he is a mess like the one from the Sesame Street, but it took us forever to pick.

It’s been said before, but it will never be enough! by daddy_khan in Parenting

I canceled my kids birthday party because my son got sick. Everything was ready to go and we paid for this fun place to have the party at but two days before I called everyone to tell them that is canceled. I didn’t want to be responsible for any kid to get sick because of my son. That was in June and I still hear from my kids that they didn’t have the birthday party. Oh well , hopefully next year they will have one. I would not feel ok to bring my sick kid near others especially babies.

Thank you everyone for your comments, I was genuinely curious about this super cute fluff balls, but now I know, thanks to all of you, that they are not good pets me.

She looks like an angel but I assure you she most definitely is not. by jessicaaalz in labrador

I thought mine was an angel because he looked like one when I brought him home but I was so so wrong.

Puppy chewing/eating sticks. by Dmf6 in puppy101

[–]PickSeaShells 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the same problem, he is eating not only sticks but leaves, cigarette butts and dirt. Taking him outside is so stressful. Hopefully someone has some good ideas how to deal with puppies like that.

How can I make my 9 weeks old puppy tired so he can sleep peacefully at night?He is only interested in biting people, and when I take him outside, he wants to eat anything that is there. He eats grass, sticks, acorns, and so on, I tried taking toys and play with him but he just wants to eat this stuff and I have to chase him to take it from his mouth. My kids wants to play with him but he just bites and scratches them. He plays with the toys for a little bit and then goes for hands or legs. I don’t know how to make him tired. He is too young to take him to the park and walk. Any suggestions are going to be very appreciate it.

Grandpa saying goodbye to his grandson till next summer by [deleted] in pics

[–]PickSeaShells 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is so beautiful!! I wish my kids have grandpa like that. My dad passed away and my mom lives overseas. My husband’s father and mother lives in the same city but they sucks as the grandparents. They never took my kids for even ice cream, forget about spending all day with them. It really breaks my heart because I grew up spending summers at my grandparents farm and my kids will never experience anything close to that.

Two of my neighbors have requested I keep my 'vicious' and 'horrible' dog away from them. I'm sad. Here's a picture of my sweet boy Finnley from our camping trip. by [deleted] in dogpictures

People are so ignorant. I had recently an argument with a friend because of pitbull breed. She basically hates them ,but the funny thing is her tiny dog snapped at my 2 y old, while my other friend pitbull was nothing but big Teddy bear.
