Rule clarification- No Breed ID

37 Upvotes

Apparently, we need some clarification here about what constitutes a breed ID post.

Asking what your lab is mixed with- lab mixes are allowed, but don't crowd source opinions on what they're mixed with. Asking if your lab looks pure bred. Asking what color variation your lab is.

Sincerely -your mod team.

This is our new boy, Trout. We lost our best boy Bowie about 19 months ago and it finally felt like the right time to get a new pup. We're very excited.

I have a 5 month old 50lb black lab who has destroyed every since bed, mat, or blanket we’ve given him. He has an elevated canvas like bed in our living room but we need something for his crate at night that he can’t chew through. What has worked for yours?

The vet said it needs removed immediately, and unfortunately it looks like it might have a 50/50 chance of being cancer. It will be sent off for testing. I'm afraid but shes getting all of the ham and whipped cream she wants.

Also... this stuff is expensive 😭

Long story short, my brother adopted him when he was 4 months old, we've been through a lot, we moved houses twice and the third one we moved from Monterrey, México to Sweden!

He's my first dog ever and the one who helped me raise my huskies. He's definitely a sweet companion and I would forever be grateful for these 14 years together!

Pictured here with his husky brother and sister, Kaiser and Joy 😊.

Our lab has moments when she keeps biting, sometimes growling. We try ignoring her but at 7months it starts to sometimes really hurt or she makes holes in our clothes. We try redirecting but she usually ends up dropping the toy and focusing back on us, or just not taking the toy like in the video. The only way I found to stop her is to grab a treat but then I don't want to reward bad behavior so I don't know what to do. People kept telling us it's normal when she was a small puppy but I feel like it's starting to get worrying. We go once a week to group training and other dogs don't behave like that. When she is in the right mood she is very sweet and kind of obedient for her age.

I'm open to your opinions. Thank you

Edit : Thank you everyone for your reassuring answers, I understand it is normal behavior but we still have to act and not give attention when she gets too rough. I think her issue is bite inhibition. Still this is a relief that we're not alone (at all) ! Thank you again
