Snip for dogs?!
Has anyone recently had their dog snipped and if so has it helped them calm down? For about the 2nd time in as many weeks my 2 year old Patterdale ran off leading to a dog hunt which I could have done without! Before anyone mentions training Iv spent hours with him and 9/10 he will come back when whistled...

Anyway, I had him snipped and it did take the 'edge' off his skinheadedness. He still is very much an Irish - but saves the fireworks for vermin and visitors. Dee

He's a pain in the backside to be honest he picks his times to run off too usually if I'm just about to do the school run!

I have noticed no difference but have yet to try to take a bone from him, previously he would bare teeth and threaten. |
