We have a 100 lb lab. He's so cute and full of personality. Here's the problem... Even though he went to 2 months of training (we call it boot camp) he refuses to obey. He loves to tip toe around the house and open closed doors on his own, take food off the stove /counter that i'm in the middle of preparing, drag us on our walks - get the picture? We tried very hard to enforce everything they said he learned but we found out later they used a shock collar (never occured to us to ask and they never mentioned it or he wouldn't have gone to that school) so... since we won't use one on him he gets away w/ murder- or would if he could figure out how. Commands,treats, choke chains etc... nothing seems to work. He is taller than i am when he stands on back feet and almost weighs as much too. I am tired of him calling the shots and would like my own bed back. He's now telling me to get off the computer because it's time for him to take me for a walk!! Will getting him neutered help? what else?
