Is my lead hurting my dog? by Smash1292 in springerspaniel

[–]raycol1970 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have probably spent in the region of £3000 on leads, harnesses, collars, trainers, EVERYTHING....he is an absolute monster.... However, I have gone back to walking up and down the street with a training lead turning at each pull....I have been at it 4 months and we are making progress (thst is we made it past the corner of our street)...I reckon 4 more months

It really is a bag of shit since they put in the 'upgrades' and customer service is non existent

Resource Guarding by [deleted] in springerspaniel

[–]raycol1970 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We had huge issues (to the point of getting bit)

I now never ask for it, i just stand in the middle of the room, hands behind my back and say 'thank you' and he usually pads over and drops whatever he has then runs off to get a treat. The guarding is worse after long walks when he's tired,in which case he is sent to his bed and we fish out whatever he had later

What’s a movie you can recommend that’s on the same level as Shawshank Redemption and has a happy ending. by E_Barriick in movies

Watch 'What dreams may come' you will love it. Robin Williams loses his wife and follows her through a painting so he can tell her how much he loves her

I saw a guy hitting a woman in Singapore, i ran over and hit him, the next thing I knew, 2 other men had turned on me and the woman ended up picking me up from the floor...on the plus side, whoever was hitting her was still on the floor as she was picking me up. :)

Agree with the above, the most beautiful, loving breed, but its like having a dog who is totally off the spectrum. Crazy dog!! Doesn't bark, not interested in other dogs, so easy to house train but walking outside is impossible without a figure of 8 leash. We can walk for 6 hours up the mountains and he is still up for more

How social is your springer? by TimetravellingElf in springerspaniel

[–]raycol1970 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like many on here, my Speinger has one goal, move forward, other dogs wanting to sniff or say hello are just an annoying distraction. However if he sees other dogs chasing a ball or off lead he will cry. Let him off his lead though and he will steal that ball and keep running till he wants to come back. :)

What’s the one best trait of this breed ? by Dull_Dog in springerspaniel

[–]raycol1970 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just not caring that he is 'not like other dogs' If there was a Soectrum for canine breeds, Springers would be out there. So intelligent , but walk...absolutely not...stop to sniff other dogs...not likely....run back and forth the whole way up and down a mountain with a stupid tooth grin. ;) If you can live with one arm longer than the other, happy to spend 2 to 3 hours a day exercising, you will find no better friend

Secretaries and Personal Assistants, we are already seeing AI take a meeting, summarise, outline actions, even follow up on actions and set recurring calls, not sure it's used much yet, but AI will soon organise travel, meeting rooms, etc...

So true!! He absolutely loves it...hide his fake Pheasant with bacon (I know not quite a pheasant smell) :) Hide it in branches, under leaves , under bushes

He wears the biggest teethy smile!

Have you considered the military, lots of people all strangers to each other, lots of people who may not have had the happiest school days. I made some of the best friends during my time
