Thanks for your response greeneyes. I have never reared a dog before and my hubby wanted a puppy so it could “imprint” on him. He’s imprinted alright! It’s a mixed breed dog (golden retriever/shepherd/hound, we think). We’ve been training him since we got him two months ago. He’s five months old now and he learns quickly but lately he’s been taking our commands under advisement. He’s sweet-natured and somewhat dominant. He can exercise great patience when he wants to. We’ve named him Bertie Woofster.
The dog whisperer, will tell you: Do be a pack leader. LOL
