Thats too funny I was just looking at the page of your Mac and his nickname is the same as my Mac. lol

We all think he is a Little boy in a dogs body !. I think he will be a puppy for life !

He makes us laugh everyday.

My family and I were at a yard sale this weekend and while we were looking , mack did his usual barking after we got ten feet from the trooper. Then we hear this beeping , then a constant beep, so my...

Im glad to see that Bower is doing better !
Great work both of you !

We are taking him out for a run three times a day instead of just two, also we are making him do things more often, like sit and lay, when I walk him on his leash if he pulls me I make him sit down,...

He is a Boxer /Mastiff and he was 1 1/2 when we got him .

Thank you so much for all your advice, it all makes sense.
I have tryed some of this already, but I can see where he is trying to be the alpha of our pack. We will all work hard to help him...

What do I do ?

I've noticed over the last couple days that he is getting more and more aggressive. He has bitten me twice. Not nipping , biting!

he was very shy about the water,we threw his favorite toy out, then we both got in the water and tryed to call him in, then we dragged him in a few times he swam just fine, he just swam right back to...

I think your right , If we all had gotten in the water , then I think he would have wanted to come in, but someone had to take the pics, lol

Im not sure right now, Havent tested him in a lake as of yet.
He loves to drink out of the hose, although doesnt like to get sprinkled with the water.

I think this is his first experience with the ocean, I hope that the more we encourage the water the...

BE Persistant, and consistant !!!
he is still a baby, he has those puppy tendancies, when puppies play together they bite and nip and bark at each other. Thats what he is doing with you because you...

Mack is 1 1/2 yrsa old, weighing in at a good 85lbs and growing. He also loves to cuddle, he is truely an overgrown lapdog. He talks back as well especially when I tell him to lay on the floor at...

Well, Its been awhile and Mack is improving so much.

Even outside. He still wants to have some freedom, which we give to him ,but he knows when we want him to go in.

Mack is responding very well to this lack of response from us, when he is barking.

The very first time we tryed all three of us turned away from him crossed our arms and said nothing, he persisted...

I completely get it, like the light bulb just went on in my head !
You are right, and I will try it !

As far as the Bf wacking him , we dont believe in it, but I can understand your assumtion....
