Neutrality Training Advice

Hi everyone! Hugo is 9 months now and is a super excited puppy whenever we go on walks. He does really well on a leash until we are passing another dog or person. I want to work on neutrality with him and make sure he doesn't feel overexcited and overstimulated every time I take him for a walk or to go play. With him being 90 lbs at 9 months, he does try to pull to get to the other dog to play and I know it'll only get harder as he gets bigger.

Just curious if anyone else specifically did neutrality training with their Dane and what worked for you.

3 mile morning walk with Hugo

My goal is to start walking more and enjoying the nature around me. Just taking time to take it in. Hugo also gets to enjoy it!

Is weekly grooming too often for a Great Dane?

Hi! Looking for some advice. I have a Great Dane puppy and wanted to make sure he is super used to getting groomed, having his nails done, teeth cleaned, etc. He's been going since he was 3 months and is 8 months now. Is weekly too often for him? His skin is great, his coat is soft, his nails are amazing, the only thing I noticed is dry paw pads but I think that's environmental and because he's still growing.

Just looking to see if weekly grooming is too often or if it may cause him any issues I'm not aware of. Thanks in advance!

Hey all! Would appreciate advice from anyone who's owned an LX. Do you have a preferred year or have any insight for me? Much appreciated!

My Puppy is 5 1/2 months old and hitting his rebellious phase. Isn't that early?

Hi All! I got my puppy at 11 weeks and he's been in weekly training since I got him. He is super smart and knows all commands. I've done indoor and outdoor training, starting to introduce more distractions now. He is fully potty trained and has been for about a month.

I train him with rewards so he has his regular training treats and then more high value for distractions.

So for the last week or so he has been getting "argumentative" and not listening as well. I still hold the command until he complies. I figure this is his rebellious phase but this just seems so early. Example: I'll command a sit and he'll bark at me and snap in my direction. I tell him again and he does it and then gets his reward. (he's never bitey towards me. He'll just do air snaps sometimes if he gets an attitude about something) He has also been more aggressive playing with other dogs. He always plays in a mouthy way but he's been grabbing and holding lately. When I see that, I pull him away to cool down and then release when he seems more relaxed and then repeat that if he continues to hold.

Just looking to get opinions and advice. Also if your puppy hit that phase as early as mine.
