Posted: Fri Apr 13, 2007 2:04 pm Post subject: What can I do with Dexter?
I need to do something new with Dexter and not sure what.
We had to back out of obedience, he could do it but the hall where we trained was small and this stressed him especially if on lead and he used to have a pop at other dogs if they were close to him.
He is far too big for agility, not weight wise but height wise and he looks tubby as he has a huge rib cage and I am concerned with his height that his joints will suffer leaping around.
No chance of gundog as all items are his doesn't matter which dog has them and he can't sit and wiat quietly while a dummy is been thrown.
What else can we try do you think???
We have worked and worked on the on lead prob and he has got slightly better but with his past history I think there will always be a problem.
Any ideas would be great

Well He's big enough to pull a cart...So how about something like this...
http://www.midland-bernese-carters.org.uk/
Or maybe Water Rescue....like they do with Newfies
Or perhaps Search and Rescue work.....or just a little Tracking.
