I have a Black Lab puppy (8 months old) that has been neutered, has plenty of drinking water at all times yet seems intent upon digging his way to China. Before my wife exiles the both of us to France, is there a way to curtail this activity?

To teach your dog to walk on a lead without pulling: 1. Stand with your dog on the lead and do not move your hands while hilding the lead - only when the lead is relaxed and the dog is not pulling, give him a treat. Repeat this at least lesson at least once a day. 2. Walk your dog a few steps - if he pulls, stop and wait until he relaxes on the lead. Give him a treat. Repeat this at least once a day. 3. When you leave for your daily walk, take a few steps and if he pulls on the lead - stop. Wait and don't move on until the lead is relaxed! Only then give him another treat and continue walking. 4. Repeat until the dog always walks with a relaxed lead. It may take a very long time to get where you are going but you will be teaching your dog each time you go for a walk that you will not accept him pulling on the lead. Good luck!

I lost my Lab today, she developed Necroptic Pancreatitis and Peritonitis which in dog language means ouch but she wasn't yet three years old and she was also epileptic (had seizures) so she couldn't be a mother though she would have been a really good one. She was first in her second year of Dog obedience and she was the friendliest dog ever, unless you smell like goats (she didn't like that smell) but now you know how I found you and your baby pictures remind me of her.

Our 21/2 year old black Lab, Daisy passed away this weeend with what the vet diagnosed as pneumonia. The onset first appeared on 10/31 as a hacking. On 11/01 she was taken to the vet where he diagnosed pneumonia and perscirbed a a regimen of anitbiotics. On Saturday evening she passed away with the medication having no effect whatsoever. My daughter who lives in CT. checked with some vet friends she knows who say that from the sypmtoms described, eg., fast moving, profuse bleeding from the mouth and nose at death, no rectal bleeding, no reaction to the antibiotics,that it probably was a very fast moving lung carcinoma. This one can apprently reach grapefruit size from one cell in a matter of a couple of days. Since it typically occurs in dogs under 3, so most vets in the midwest don't check for it, (x-ray). I guess my question is have you heard heard of this in labs before? I'm told that it's fairly common in golden retreivers. If so, would you know if it's a genetic thing? I'm considering another female from the same parents. Anything you can provide is appreciated. Thanks in advance. Bill

How do you do? I am the Japanese who lives in Japan. My name is hideki Sano not speak English. With using an automatic translation machine and so on. Mail is being sent. Though it takes up the main subject. As for present Japanese Labrador Miniature Labrador is popular in the relations such as a dog show. Because I like a large dog. It doesn't like Japanese Labrador It was laughed at by a dealer though it was looked for in the Japanese country. It is searching for the female of 40kg and more in the large size of Labrador Of course, I want to purchase it. Because use is used for the propagation, I want the female which can breed sold. Black or brown is hope with a female of 40kg and more before and after 1 year old. The child whom a mind is gentle to is hope with the child who is healthy and a wrong point is not in the thigh joint. If, it is sold in your company America Japan. I want it made as cheap as possible because a special Japanese dealer is introduced when a procedure isn't known. It is waiting for contact. Please look after an answer because it is OK with English. Ask me a question if you don't sometimes understand though it thinks that what can't be understood comes out because automatic translation is being used.

Hi, My name is Sam I'm 2 1/2 yrs old and I'm a Yellow Labrador. My mum loves me to death and is going to buy me a black Labrador for company as I've just lost my other 2 K9 companions. She'd like to know where's the best place to buy a black Lab in Melbourne Australia. Life is a blast I have sooooo much fun because I belong to a dog team and we do lots of fun stuff like sports, agility and games so my new friend would have lots of fun to. Woof! Woof!

Hi Ben, you are so lucky to have your own site, my dad has had a website running for a while, but the spot where my picture is supposed to go still says "insert cody's picture here". I guess i am less important to him than his car that features in it a number of times! Despite my lack of publicity, i still have many adoring fans, such as my tigger soft toy and big stuffed fluffy yellow duck. They like to sleep on my cushion each night with me and if they forget to walk there themselves then i give them a lift in my mouth instead. They also enjoy hanging out with me during the day, I am halfway through pulling all off tiggers fluff out, he said it was really itching his insides, a dog is obliged to help. I regret to inform you that i am not a labrador of any colour, but am a Rhodesian Ridgeback. Mum used to own a lab x though and knows how lovely they are. I must admit however that i hear her say she couldn't imagine a better dog then me!

Hi Ben, My wife and I recently purchased a 9 week old Yellow Lab. "Marina" has had a trying week, teaching her all the house training basics. She however, likes to nip at our pants, sandals, or fingers. We have scolded her, commanded NO, tapped her on the nose, and praised her when she's good. Is the nipping a puppy instinct, or can we do anything more to teach her not to nip at this young age? Hope you can offer some advice. Thanks in advance!

Problem is, Shadow (pup's name) gets really pee'd off with this...seems go a little crazy afterwards, refuses to "come" and gives me really filthy looks for about 15 minutes or so. Makes me feel really awful! Should I continue with this or try something else...any suggestions? Thanks, and I like your site...

Dear Ben My name is Wallis and I am an 8 month old Black Lab who is exceedingly handsome like yourself.My parents are killin' me though with cuddles and kisses, I think I will have them committed. They just put in a big airditioner for me to sleep under hence my favourite pastime is sleeping. I get confused because sometimes they call me Wallis and at other times I frequnelt here the term Airditioner Dog. Dad takes me walking every day and we chase ducks and anything else that moves for hours and I show him my championship retrieving skills by ensuring I bring nothing back and usually leave it floating in the middle of the creek so that he has to wade in to get it!I figure he needs to pratice what he preaches. I was rather offended the other day when my Parents told friends that my real name is Stealth Dog because I always appear asleep (it is a trap for the unwary I tell you) and that the only way I could stop a burglar is if Dad threw me at them! How insulting indeed. Anyway it was jolly good to hear that one our own was making it big. Keep up the good work Ben. Regards in stealth mode Wallis

The first two day's she ate really well but now she just picks at her food and now she's got the trot's and being sick, but she doesn't look ill and she's on the same dry food her breeder's fed her. I'm just wondering if this is common for a dog this age being in a new enviroment. I'm really worried about her and i'm just looing for advice before i have to take her to the vet. Thank's Rob

Hi Ben, my name is Mungo (not Mango like the lady next door keeps calling me which is pretty embarrasing but Mungo - apparently he was the patron saint of Glasgow or something) - anyway I was hoping you could help my family with some gratuitous advise. My dear family would eventually like my little sister Martha - shes one of us too, 8 months and still a little silly but very cute to have puppies. Due to circumstances way beyond my control (!) I'm not up to the fathering job myself - more the indulgent uncle type, so what should they do? They are totally soppy and will cry for weeks when the pups have to leave home so only want to breed for totally ingulged pets. So how does a nice homely girl find a mate. Don't even think about AI which sounds way too icky for them. love and kisses - I'm back on the sofa now for a bit of a snooze, Mungo

Hello Ben, Just ran across your site. I just bought my first black lab. She is an extremely smart dog. I house broke her in 4 days. She only had one accident. I dreaded having a pup because of that reason. Wow, they are smart dogs. She already will fetch, sit, lay down. I have her fetching throw dummies. She won't leave the front yard. She is amazing. Is this common among this breed.

Hey Ben! I'm Lilli, and I'm 12 and a half years old. My family recently bought a White Labrador, and we spoil him to bits! His name is Zak, and we named him after his father, but we changed the 'C' to a 'K' so it was a little bit different! He was born in batlow and came up to Canberra in a truck with his 7 brothers and sisters and his mum! We bought him and took him home when he was 5 and a half weeks old. He was so tiny then, but now he is huge! He is only 4 and a half months old and still definately a puppy! He still has a lot of growing to so before he is a full grown Lab! He loves chasing his rope bone and his new Kong! He is very persistent, but he is a very good puppy. He sits straight away when we bring his food out now, but when he was little it took him a little while to learn he wasnt going to be fed unless he sat! When he is 6 months old we are going to take him to Bark Busters dog training classes where he might be able to catch up with a few of his friends from puppy school! I was wondering, where in Canberra do you live? I live in Belconnen :) Ok, I'll go and play with Zak now! Thanks for your time, please reply, Love, Lilli

Hey Ben! I'm Lilli, and I'm 12 and a half years old. My family recently bought a White Labrador, and we spoil him to bits! His name is Zak, and we named him after his father, but we changed the 'C' to a 'K' so it was a little bit different! He was born in batlow and came up to Canberra in a truck with his 7 brothers and sisters and his mum! We bought him and took him home when he was 5 and a half weeks old. He was so tiny then, but now he is huge! He is only 4 and a half months old and still definately a puppy! He still has a lot of growing to so before he is a full grown Lab! He loves chasing his rope bone and his new Kong! He is very persistent, but he is a very good puppy. He sits straight away when we bring his food out now, but when he was little it took him a little while to learn he wasnt going to be fed unless he sat! When he is 6 months old we are going to take him to Bark Busters dog training classes where he might be able to catch up with a few of his friends from puppy school! I was wondering, where in Canberra do you live? I live in Belconnen :) Ok, I'll go and play with Zak now! Thanks for your time, please reply, Love, Lilli

I have a 10 yr old black lab named Herschel. Herschel has hip displacure and stays inside the house most of the day. His problem is that he sheds hair very badly. He will leave patches of fallen hair on the floor where he has laid. I try to brush him and he even likes to have the vaccum cleaner go over his coat. Is this (shedding) typical? Does anyone have any suggestions for corrective remedies?

My owner is a bit concerned that I might be getting a bit fat, even though I go for long walks every day, and only eat what my breeder recommended (but sometimes I do eat the scraps from the chook yard - but only when I think no-one else is watching!). What do you reckon I should be eating, and how much should I weigh now? Thanks for your help. Love Lucy.

Have tried tying them down and eveything else i could think of. Is there any thing out there that can stand up to him. have to water him five to six times daily. He will just knock it over. Also the feeder is an automatic feeder, made of metal. He constantly turns it over to where his feed gets wet and know the feeder is coming apart. I'm in Law enforcement so it's hard for me to come by and check on him. Worry about him not having the water mostly. what can I do?

hi ben,
i have a question that i thought you may be able to help me with. three years ago i purchased a chocolate lab male pup as a pet for my wife. i have his pedigree papers etc., we are not interested in showing or retrievig etc., but we have been approached by some breeders with regards to a stud service. we, basically have no idea as to what to charge or the proceedures etc. his pedigree, so they tell me is very good as he does not have any yellow in his lines at all, he is also more of a person to us than a dog and we love him heaps.
i hope you might be able to give us an idea where to start. another thing, he has a skin irritation, and around $700.00 later and four different vets do not seem to know what it is, he just has small red spots on his underside and scratches a lot. we have tried diets, washes almost everything. i know this is not a ask dr. harry site but anything is worth a try!! great site.
