I've got a 60 lb lab puppy that's the same way. I swear his paws are made of concrete.
Dogs
All about dogs - dog breeds, dog training and behavior, news affecting dog owners or handlers, puppy pics, etc.
Rules (Will be refined later on).
-
Don't be a dick. This should cover most things, just keep in mind that everyone started somewhere and try to be helpful rather than rude or judgmental.
-
No personal attacks based on training style or tools.
Discussion of balanced training including proper use of aversives is allowed here. -
All breeds and mixes are welcome. You can criticize backyard breeding practices but don't pile on people because they own a specific breed or prefer purebreds or mixed breeds.
-
Do not support backyard breeders or puppy mills. Please do not link to or suggest buying from high volume breeders or those with an obvious lack of standards and testing.
-
Do not help or support fake service animals. Please do not encourage people to buy fake service dog vest or ESA letters to get around rental or other restrictions & do not give advice on how to misrepresent a dog as a service or support animal.
He's a beautiful croissant!
My 75 lb (34 kg) puppy has unusually long legs, but he's still figured out a way to fit in my lap. He has also mastered the croissant technique. Mathematicians should ask dogs for help with their unsolvable topology problems.
Daww, 30kg is absolutely a lap dog. Who could say no to that face?!
In fact, every dog is a lap dog; I've had Berners and a Leonberger who were all most definitely lap dogs, and they were closer to 50kg (100-something lbs). Might rupture your spleen and break a few of your ribs when they hopped on your lap to love you, but that's the price we pay
Our is only 19kg, but she has 37 elbows. Still wants to sit on us, and from a running jump
