I am going to be taking my 4 month old cane corso puppy with me to Arkansas from iowa and I am looking for the best safety harness possible as she likes to moves round quite a bit and she thinks she needs to drive with me in the driver's seat. What i
Good on you for making sure Kiara is secured in the car when you travel so she stays safe! I think you should buy the Allsafe harness. I see that it has been extensively crash-tested for safety, and that will help protect her during the car ride. I hope this helps :-)

My 5-year-old English bulldog really enjoys his walks, but any time a car goes by he starts pulling towards the car very aggressively and he barks like crazy. I am really afraid that he will get lose and get hurt. Apart from that, the rest of the tim
Hi there and thank you for using Boop by Petco to address your concern. I would recommend using corrective collars like a pinch collar or gentle leader. These can help stop the pulling behavior. You may also look into the low voltage shock collars. These collars emit a small shock that is similar to being snapped by a rubber band. You can use this to correct the behavior and these collars can all be found online or at your local pet store. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.

We're going on a long road trip. Do you have any advice on what should I bring for our little wigglebutt? Except papers,water bottle and snacks and few favourite toys and protection for her. What else should I do?
Other fun things are a safety blanket, collar and leash, id tags just in case, Benadryl tablets in case of sting etc at a rest stop, and sounds like you have the rest covered! Happy travels to you and Bella!

Training & Behavior
Why does she stand up in the car? Very rarely I’ll be able to get her to sit down
Lots of dogs like to stand up in the car, usually to look out the window. It can be dangerous, however, so I would get Daisy a car harness. This will buckle her into her seat and keep her safe. You can find them online and at pet stores. I hope this helps!

My dogs and I go do errands in the car everyday, but they go crazy and bark at other dogs we pass being walked. I use the command NO BARK and NO because they know what no means, and what Bark is. I take them in small groups (2 or 3) when training a
Thank you for using Boop by Petco. It sounds like you have been doing some one on one training and small groups, and that has been going well. If that is the case, I suppose I would try adding one dog at a time, and not moving to more dogs until the behavior is controlled. If 2 or 3 is going well, then add a 4th, and change who that 4th dog is. Perhaps you will find that there is one particular dog that is the instigator, and you can work more one on one with that dog. Make sure you are telling them what TO do (i.e. sit, lay down, stay, etc.) instead of what NOT to do. Give them a job, and reward them for doing that job. Have patience, and keep working at it! I hope that helps.
