Fish Herder
I have a german shep cross which is 8mths old, I've had him since he was nine weeks old (he had been passed around a bit and had 4 homes previously)
My problem is that we can't get him to stop jumping up when people come in, and he keeps biting us to get our attention and carries on getting harder if we ignore him! We have tried various things like ignoring him, putting him in a room on his own etc but to no avail. I know the bitting will eventually stop as he isn't doing it as much as he used to but my dad says that if he doesnt stop jumping up at people soon then he will have to go! I don't think I could bear to let him go as he has become a nice dog apart from being the biting, jumping up and of course destroying things like teddies or anything he can get his mouth on.
He has plenty of chews, toys, treat ball, kong, bones, you name it he has it!
