I just got a baby lab. And i think i might have completely spoiled her to the bone. She follows me everywhere. She wears clothes and likes it.When i take her clothes off she goes wild when i put them on she acts perfect. When i take her outside during the day to do her thing she will run right back to me. At night she will lay down in the yard and roll over and look at me with a sad look so that i go get her and carry her back inside. She sleeps right next to me in bed on a seperate pillow. And she loves pringles pizza flavored ships. She is like a baby. Will she be a baby forever now. ? Have i ruined her.?

Labradors are veryy smart dogs which is why they are used to assist the disabled. They are very energetic for the first three years and can also be destructive. If you can afford it you might consider puppy classes and begin training as soon as possible. I believe they have to be 4 months and have all of their puppy shots up to date. Puppy classes will also help socialize her, and it helps you learn how to keep control. They are pack animals, you are the leader of the pack, and she needs to begin learning now, who is the leader. Don't wait until she is fully grown to begin training sessions.

The longer you encourage bad behavior, the harder it will be to stop. Stop NOW. If you're unsure of the right way, sign up for a puppy class at your local pet store or vet clinic.

the answer is ... yes, if you dont stop now!!!! i did the same to my teacup yorkie... and i still do. i feed him people food, give him treats... even when he doesnt do something worth it, i let him come up on the bed, even if he cries. its horrible... he still isnt potty trained and we dont let him outside because he's an "indoor dog". im still trying to correct my wrongdoing so the best advice for you is to stop asap!!!! if you need to get her trained for anything i would suggest you do. it'll be the best for you and your doggie!!!! good luck!!!! :D

She won't be a baby forever. She'll be a puppy forever.
