Show me your golden's favourite toy

What about it?

This is Dexter's favourite - Mr Croc. The fact he hasn't fully destroyed and ripped it apart is his biggest sign of affection!

How to stop puppy from barking?

What about it?

My puppy has been barking at me and I think it’s for attention or because she wants to bite me and jump on my face, which I don’t let her do, and when I’m about to feed her as well, I wait until she’s quiet to give her food, I tried training her when she’s barking, rewarding her when she stops for a few seconds and saying “yes, good quiet” but I don’t think it’s working, is there anything else I can do to stop this demand barking?

Hot spots/ allergies

What about it?

Hi all! I recently rescued a golden from Iowa, he moved to MO with me, and his allergies have been bad. His past owners said he had allergies, stay away from chicken foods. They eventually landed on the lamb meal & rice formula or Diamond naturals, which is a brand I’m not familiar with. My other golden is on Purina pro plan, so I tried switching him to the sensitive skin lamb & rice but no luck, we’re on our 3rd hot spot/ constant eye boogies this month. Any tips? Good food for allergies? PS: yes we’ve seen a vet about it, since they don’t have his full history they didn’t want to indefinitely say it’s allergies. They said they’d prefer him be on Purina. We are going back soon
