Thanks! I think she is adorable too but I might be a little bias ;-) It's against the law to crop ears in New Zealand, but I wouldn't crop them anyway. Dobermans are so naturally beautiful.

Well, this has been one of her majors, she has never liked being handled too much especially her paws so her nails are longer than they should be for sure and one of her dew claws gives her grief as it was not removed properly and grows outwards and upwards like a fish hook. After a lot of...

I definitely think it is angst she has been a very anxious fearful puppy, a real challenge but she's come a long way. Both things we just try snap her out of it immediately.

My foot is really warm in one particular spot I'm sure she knows it! Handy in the winter :rofl:

Hi Again Can anyone offer advise on stopping obssesive behaviour? Skye is just two and she has COME A LONG WAY from being such an anxious fearful puppy thanks to a lot of fantastic advise from this site thank you so much. However she has some little quirks still that I am not 100% sure how to...

You gotta love them, such awesome personalities. Skye "stalks" me, I bend over head down and say cuddle and then she goes into pray mode and sneaks up on me while I keep saying cuddle and she will tip toe right up to my face and as soon as I give her a kiss she just loses it doing zoomies all...

She has a a prey drive like no other I have experienced also in my other two dogs. Any advice in that area would be much appreciated also. Once she locks into something that's it, it's very hard to break her away from what ever she is focused on. She crouches down and just starts crawling...

ok thank you, I have given all my dogs tennis balls to play with cause it keeps them so entertained, lucky nothing has ever happened. I will get some different balls.

Ok awesome thank you, no more tennis balls for sure I did not think of that especially while she is guarding. And I have taught her find it and she is really good, I will do more of that. I have gone over NILIF with the whole household again too. She is so amazing, she picks up things crazy...

On a lighter note, as some of you are aware Skye has always been shy, fearful and reactive. She has come leaps and bounds this year with her confidence. Awesome thank you very much for the info.

It is not new behavior as such, we have been through this before when she was younger. She is definitely more submissive as well rolling on her back all the time. I don't think it is incontinence, she only pees when she is cornered or under pressure as such to release her toys or what have...

Yes we still play tug all the time and she is very good with releasing when asked etc We always make sure the game is on our terms. Ok thanks, noted about the tennis ball, is it because they can break in half? Just thinking can I get her other proper dog balls the same size, she loves playing...

If I leave her and walk away, she will come over and really suck up like she knows has done something wrong, but I'm trying to follow through with what I have asked her to do as such. I kind of thought that too, her heat possibly coming on she is instinctively guarding her beds and ours. She...

So at 18 months Skye still thinks it's normal to sit like this. lol She's watching her "sisters" outside (two free-ranging chickens) while sitting on the side of her bed. Still never fails to amuse me every time.

Hi Everyone I hope you are all fit and well and your fur babies! I need further advice. A couple of weeks ago Skye entered another fear phase and along with that she has started resource guarding something chronic, beds and toys etc guarding to the point her pupils dilate and she growls. Today...
