Aussieflyer38 Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 I got dragged to doggie school last Sunday. I finally convinced my wife that Max HAD to be trained. Not that I walk him a lot, I call on my grandkids to do that, I love walking him, but I don't have the strength to control him anymore. I need him to walk quietly beside me, not career off down the street with me in tow. It's fifty kilo's of flying Labrador, if you've seen those comic sketches of dogs dragging owners down the street - yep that's what I look like 🤪. Just hoping he doesn't take off and wrap me around a lamp post. Even the trainer said, "wow that's a big strong dog". And so, it looks like I'm going to doggie school for the next five weeks. Right now, I'm trying to convince my son he should take him with my wife. Not having much luck. He's a beautiful boy, love him lots, pure bread blood lines from the UK. The breeder had the sperm flown in from the UK so you can probably appreciate his value. He is the daddy of the puppies I posted photo's of some time back. Anyway I've finished waffling......... Max Thank for looking/reading 🙂 Don 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodger Pettichord Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 Well, Don, my best wishes are with you. My bet is on the 50 kilos of muscle and teeth. 😁 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stillwater Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 You never know, maybe Max even LIKES to go to school? What if he finds a girlfriend there? Thinking back... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a gorgeous boy Rob, except at two in the morning when he decides on a barking session. He has a large chunk of my heart. 🥰 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He graduated 😁 with honors. Even won the heart of his trainer, she said he was the biggest Lab she had ever had in her classes. I realise this when he tries to climb on my lap. 50 kilo's is a bit heavy. It was worth it all in the end. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had to keep an eye on him during class, he had his eye on a poodle, which was really funny, she stood underneath him. 😂 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
