That's why you give your dog flea and tick prevention measures. Either a collar or medication.

>>787312
It still doesn't keep all ticks away. You must always check doggos thoroughly for those nasty little shits

>>787346
The medication I use keeps them all away. Fleas, ticks, ect. Selamectin is the med. Actually kills the ticks as soon as they bite, so they never latch on. It also kills and prevents heartworm.

I have a question. Whenever I take my dog backpacking she doesn't eat her dry food. To make sure she eats I have to pack her canned wet food. Anyone have a good idea for getting to eat her regular dry stuff while /out/?

>>788474
is she getting enough water? she might be doing more exertion than usual and thus losing more water

>>788474
It's a dog it will get hungry, wait it out or let it eat what it can find

Packing canned food is madness. Get your dog a pack and make it pack its own damn food and water. And some of yours too. They need to pay the rent somehow.

Keep your dumb ass dogs at home and off my trails
Nothing more annoying than some retard and thier dog off its leash running around.
I leave poisoned meat and treats on trails for you faggots to learn your lesson

>>788786
yup it's how we trained ours, a combination of that, pet correctors (the gas spray stuff) and just lots of short sessions.

The best advice I can give is find out what your dog wants most, for us it was a tennis ball or cheese for one and corned beef for the other. Once you crack what they like training becomes easy

>>788783
Nice, looks like fun. How does your pup like the harness vs a collar?

No, she's a fucking princess, and prefers for you to squeeze water out of a bottle for her.

Was dog sitting for a friend and took him up a mountain for shits & giggles.

This pointer is named Hunter but has never been used for hunting. He's also a pussy and won't go in the water. On the other hand you can't keep my golden out of the water. He'll jump in a puddle of spit.

The GSP is a great pet and friendly pooch otherwise. I like GSPs but would not get one myself since so much of our sport is conducted in sub-zero weather and ice-cold water conditions and dog clothes/accessories are a pain in the ass.

Fair. I live on the East Coast, so I don't have to bother with that.
Just love the fucking breed; had three so far in the family.
Nice mix of being an actual athlete of an animal, and a complete couch potato. GSP's are really into sitting near you and shit, and I love that because I'm empty inside.

What sucks is, and I don't know if this is breed specific or just due to pure-breeding, but two of our's have had problems with seizures.
Nothing more you can really do for them but hold 'em still while they flop around, keep them from hurting themselves.

>>788786
Clickers can be good if used properly.

The retractable leash is retarded though. Get a proper nylon leash and train your dog to loose leash walk at heel.

Nice thread and doggies. I don't have one but last year I hiked for a few days with a guy and girl and their two puggles. I am not into small dogs in general, or pugs or beagles specifically. But these two little motherfuckers had the hearts of warriors, I couldn't believe it. I was in the kinsmans in NH, one of the more rugged areas of the AT and these little bastards were like throwing themselves off boulders, rolling down hills, tearing through thorn bushes and brambles. It was really fun hiking with them.

Just today I was hiking with my dog and I stopped to get sand out of my shoes and my dog walked ahead, I don't think he knew I stopped. I got going and came up on him rolling on the ground "oh crap!!" He rolls in bear poop. When I yelled his name he got up and I saw the toilet paper. He rolled in human poop that looked like hang over whiskey shits. I hate people.

Tried soaking your dry food with water?
My last pupper was really picky when it came to food. We never gave her anything other then dry food but she seemed to like it better if we poured some water in the bowl with the food

Dogs are fine but I'm fucking over shitty owners. They either don't pick up the shit or just leave plastic bags of shit on the trail and I hate being in the middle of nowhere and having a random dog run up on me with the owner saying "don't worry, he's nice!"

Pick up after your fucking dog and keep it leashed.

>>791124
The way I trained my red heeler mix was by walking him on the leash with me for a bit and then letting him off. If he went off the trail into the bushes, I would call him and then put him back on the leash for a little while again. Eventually, he figured it out that he was supposed to stay on the trail with me. I don't know if this will work for all dogs though because my new dog doesn't get it, and I always have to keep him leashed on trails or else he'll take off and do his own thing until he eventually comes back to me.

Thx dude. He likes to lick the fish.

We eventually re-homed the poodle. She was really smart and obedient but her personality was too laser-intense. She wanted to be pleasing you 24/7 nonstop fucking stare dog. We just didn't like her very much and grooming requirements were too much to handle.

If you're into plucking nasty poodle ears fill your boots I guess.

She could flush and retrieve but I like hunting my golden way better because he has a super-soft mouth and doesn't mangle the birds like the black bitch did.

she does fine. I just make sure she is super hydrated and keep her drinking water every 15-30 minutes.

Are boarder collies a good breed for going out? Being Scottish, I've always fancied the idea of taking on a collie, but my fear is that they would need to be leashed at all times when out.

>>798522
They need a ton of exercise and are far more suited to being a working dog than a pet. I've seen them out, but not very often.

>>798522
my pupper >>798498 does great out off-leash. I only leash her when in the city and areas with heavy hiker/biker/dog traffic.
I'm not sure if it's just mine but she doesn't care for anything else while hiking except continuing down the trail.
They are very smart and teaching mine recall took about 30 minutes then about 1 hour at a dog park. If you are worried about exercise, buy it a backpack and have it carry 1-2 liters of water to help wear it out quicker.
You do need to have time each day for a walk or throwing a ball or training or else they will become stressed out and develop bad behaviors.

>>788516

Is that a sluice box?

>>798522
My border collie mix gets too excited and distracted by everything which causes him to not listen for shit. I can only let him off leash on the beach and on some trails that I'm familiar with and know whether there will be other people, dogs, or other animals. I'm not sure what he's mixed with since he was a stray, but it looks like he might be part pit bull.

Lyme disease vaccine for dogs exists but not for people.

>>787190
Sounds like an allergic reaction to something. It isn't plausible to keep boots on or keep him away from everything while hiking. Let your vet know, they may prescribe or suggest allergy meds to use on an as needed basis.

>>787288
Yes, monthly flea/tick meds help but those fuckers can still catch a ride so check for ticks after.

>>788474
Some dogs won't eat if stressed or in a new place. I had a foster dog like this, took her 3 days to eat in my house. If that is the case, they sell wet dog food in plastic packets, which would honestly be much lighter than dry food.

>>788626
No not really especially since the dog is still in training.

>>788786
Clickers are good; it's to mark a behavior much more accurately than the delayed time a reward can be given. Any verbal cue can work in lieu of a clicker but at least a clicker is always constant. Definitely read a book on it first before plunging in.
I hate retractables though. Gives you little control of the dog, the differing lengths can confuse dogs on a walk, they break easily, and it's very difficult to pull your dog back when needed if there is 20ft of line.

>>798522
They can be, but they are not weekend warriors. They strive best with a job. If you are looking for one, I'd suggest a border collie rescue; so many people get these dogs because hurr durr smart and then find out the dog is wayyy too much for them.

>>791124
Recall is probably the most important thing to perfect. Even if your dog runs off into the woods, tries to chase things off, tries to eat shit it shouldn't, tries to greet strangers etc at least with a good recall you can get the dog back to you.

Cute dogger!

Is it true that most places in the US require you to keep your dog leashed basically everywhere, even in national parks and forests?

There is nothing I enjoy more than listening to a pack of beagles on a rabbit. These are 2 yr. old littermates. Their tails bleed from wagging in the briars.

This was this weekend. My dog is very small.

>>788516
goldens are the best dogs ever. i had one he would run up to people and growl/bark "ruv ruv ruv"and i would say "hes nice thats his friendly bark." literally the nicest and smartest/dumbest dog ever. he would wait at the bottom of the steps until the last family member got home for the night and then go upstairs to sleep; somehow he knew if one of us wasnt coming home that night. we took the fence out of our yard one time and left the gate for the next day. he stood at the gate and wouldnt go around where the fence used to be until we opened the gate. he was the best part of my childhood and i miss him so much.

>>803436
Their noise is music. I wish there was more beagling in NZ

>>804086
yeah, they are great.
i have this one >>803529
she greets people she likes by showing her teeth and wrinkling her nose.
that kind of smiling is irritating for many people.
She also did the thing with sleeping upstairs when she was younger.

This.
If your dog has a strong prey drive and chases things it shouldn't, you need to adequately discourage this behavior. Same if they go up to other people or strange dogs after you tell them not to/without your permission. If your dog doesn't stop whatever it is you're doing to come to you as soon as you call, its recall isn't good enough.

Assuming the dog is already trained otherwise, a great way to do this is to recall them periodically (not too often) for no reason and then reward them for returning to you with food. This also breaks any association the dog might have between returning to you and bad things--going home, being scolded for lack of recall, etc. It's important that you reinforce returning to you as a good thing for the dog.

If they fail recall you have to adequately punish them, and by that I mean with something that overrides the value of whatever novel thing they failed to recall for. Lack of a treat doesn't meet this requirement because they get treats elsewhere but can't chase rabbits (or raccoons, or deer, etc.) anywhere. My go-to punishment is to put them on leash for a set time when they fail recall. Works even better if you have another dog that's already well behaved, both as an example of how to act and a way to make the on leash punishment more effective. It works because you are taking away the fun parts of the hike entirely. If they fail recall a second time, I usually put them on leash until the end of the hike.

(con.)

>>804139
If the dog has too high of a prey drive and will always chase things, you may need to consider an e-collar. If you do so, make sure you do your reading for how to properly use it.

Also consider hiring a professional--make sure you go to class with your dog because a major part of training is learning how to handle your dog yourself, because training is constant and needs to be maintained forever.

During the training hikes you take a new dog on, it's best to keep them short (under three hours) and have a well behaved dog along with you. Don't take more than one dog per handler, and don't take more than one dog in training at a time.

>>803407
Yes, in national parks and other populated outdoor areas. Retards with the giant idiot "DON'T WORRY HE'S FRIENDLY!!!" dog have ruined it for everyone. Most other places no, though.

Some places have laws which require the dog to be "under the owner's control" and either a leash or an e-collar fulfills that requirement. My state is this way and this is how I legally have my dogs off leash.

Yep. A very shaggy and lightly colored golden. Her parents and the rest of her litter were very copper colored. I know goldens are a meme dog but I can't imagine a dog with a better temperament than her's. She isn't very bright though.

>>787190
I love 5/15-9/15 because your god-awful dogs are not allowed anywhere in public where I live. Not on leash, nopers, not at all. Dog owners are ignorant and I still carry my pepper spray just in case one of you self righteous aholes think you're above the law, booooom goes the dynamite, in your and your pupper's eyes.

>>806616
Never knew it was a meme dog lol
My aunt had a golden that I liked when I was little. I was scared of all other dogs. I was told years later I took naps with my blanky next to her :3
