My male Julius refused to go on the wee wee pad. But as soon as I took him in the backyard he went straight to the dirt and did his business . He was 7 wks old. Give it a try . 2yrs old now and never went in the house. He learned how to open the back door and let himself out. Now if he can only close the door behind him. Lol
She needs human contact. They are just big lap dogs. If you brush her daily outside you should not get that much hair in the house. They make special brushes for them. Furminator brush and de-shedding shampoo. Your mum will learn to love her. They are great dogs.
Has one loop in front on his neck (which I use to stop his pulling) One on his back and two on the sides , one on the right and one on the left. These could be used to make him pull a sled etc.
I find my Julius in the craziest places. Found him on my island in the kitchen. He knew how to get up there but not down. On the dining room table one day. Crazy one day found him standing on top of the barbecue outside.
Lol My Julius knows when its time for his walk. He cry's and moans and puts his head on your lap and if that don't work he will start to nibble at my rolls as to say lets go. Lol
It's enough for him. 25 blocks. He loves his walks. He won't make you forget either. He will come up to you and rest his head on your lap when its time.
