The main reason we bought a dog is to avoid strangers, and burglars. Our friend had a golden retriever as well and it was pretty friendly, so we bought one. Now it is 16 weeks old and it doesn't bark at any strangers, but it actually is excited to see people walk down the streets along our neighbourhood. He runs up and down and licks and jumps on them, happily wagging its tail. I don't know how to train it so it will not be so friendly with strangers, but so that he will bark at strangers, because that's what we bought him for. Sometimes I think its he nature of this breed of dog.. or can we train it? Another thing...my dog keeps on digging muddy holes everywhere in the backyard. Nearly everytime I look in the garden he is digging huge craters everywhere. Also, he picks out the plants we plant in the vegetable patches. Any advice will be greatly appreciated =D
