    Mastiff Aggression - what can I do?

    My husband and I have a 7 month mastiff mix named Bernie. We have done our very best to socialize him, having gotten him when he was round 5 months old. We had new people over to the house every day the 1st 2 weeks we had him – including a small child. He actually lived with children and...

    TM puppy play- what's ok and what's not?

    My new TM Betty (~10wks) shares a house with two ~2yr old Vizslas (quite a crew, right?) and they tend to rough-house pretty hard. Betty has ZERO fear of the larger, older dogs and I can't really tell how much to let them 'go at it' and establish their roles as older, more alpha pack leaders...
