We have a black lab, there's I think was an Irish Terrier cross as it was larger than your usual terrier - he was larger than our lab anyway.What breeds of dogs - yours and the owners? Some owners encourage aggressive behaviour. There is a woman who has an aggressive little dog and it barks aggressive at mine. Max, mine, ignored initially. until he got said enough. One bark was enough and that was all was peace. It was my fault I suppose - I should have been more observant. That same little dog decided to have a go at a St Bernard. I walked away.
Not good. Labs are usually good tempered. We walk a lot normally off the lead and we usually meet other dogs. Just now and again there are some that are real barkers but, in fairness, they keep their leads on. I agree with the others here - you need to report that big dog.We have a black lab, there's I think was an Irish Terrier cross as it was larger than your usual terrier - he was larger than our lab anyway.

Possibly some of both? Ours is a rescue and we believe it was a year old then. He did pee in the house but that was just once when we first got him.Thought she was getting better with the house training, no accidents in days. Even started letting her upstairs.
The she walks into the bedroom tonight, looks me right in the eyes and pees right infront of me...
Now sat here waiting on the "Freeze Breeze" stain and odour remover to do it's thing.
I took her out for a wee just under 2 hours ago, normally she lasts longer then this.
Was this down to a weak bladder? Some sort of territory marking or just a puppy being a puppy?
Probably wants you outside and herself in the house and bedroom, so she's claiming her territoryThought she was getting better with the house training, no accidents in days. Even started letting her upstairs.

Agree with this. Crate training, she won't mess in the crate.Why would you let a dog in the bedroom that's not 100% house trained?
What kind of dog do you do you have in mind? I have a collie - he has a lovely temperament.I can't wait to get my new dog next year. Been a long time coming.![]()
Yup. My Border is a right little terror at the moment. She's 18 months old. I'm told that Borders calm down after 3 years........More like 4-32 months.![]()
Staffy. Had one previously and I adore them, very people centric breed.What kind of dog do you do you have in mind? I have a collie - he has a lovely temperament.

Yeah I use to get people that would cross the road from me if I was walking towards them with her.I love Staffy’s. Shame they have such a bad reputation.
