Hi,

I have two dogs. I give them everything they could want. My partner and I are fourtunate in that he can spend most of the day at home to take care of them (play groups, dog park, etc).

However our four year old lab is afraid of everything - she was born into lab rescue and has never been hurt or abused. Any ideas? She is not mean or anything but when someone comes near her she rolls over and pees then runs to hide

Well Julie that is normal. Wolves did that to the pack leader. She is just saying she is an underdog. She does it as an apology. When you enter try throwing a treat to her. After that just ignor her.When she approches you do not I repete DO NOT pet har on the head. instead kneel down and rub her chest.Also give her simple commands such as "Stan,Stay" when she greets you. Then she express her devotion in a non-subbmissive posture and earn your praise.

I was playing with my friend with a dog in the room. I turned my head in the dogs direction,
and he just ran over and bit me!

What I want to know is why he bit me.

My grandma also wants to know what kind of dog would be a good family dog.
