Olivia





We adopted Olivia, who is 3 years old about a month and a half ago. She is a black Golden Retriever/Poodle Mix. She's really smart, and a sweetheart most of the time. She does have some aggression issues, however. Anytime she gets ahold of something she isn't supposed to have and you tell her "No" - it doesn't go over so well. We are working with making her more submissive, instead of aggressive to the point where she will nip at me. She has never nipped at JR, but I believe it is because she favors males, and must have been abused by a female before.

She is 98% of the time a very sweet, obedient dog. The biting never breaks skin, but we are not going to allow that behavior. We knew this when we brought her into our home.



I never seem to blog anymore, but I should get better at that!
