Jeannie still has started to get the runs again on the eukanuba. I feed her at 10am,3pm,and 830pm. I never miss and feed exactly on time. I find if i feed exactly what it says on bag she cries for food,should i just ignore this and only feed her what it says. She does not get any treats or anything else. Plus hr fot aggression has got worse.
I found a puppy class they said its ok to watch but when i said she doesnt like other dogs they said they would just put a barrier up, wont this be pointless how will she learn if she is more intetrested in whats on the other side.
Does or has anybody been to any good puppy classes in Birmingham that they could recommend?

Do you have her on the chicken? I found my dogs got the runs on chicken and when switched to lamb n' rice they did just fine....I switched them off Eukanuba to Nutro Natual Choice and they do great on that, even on Nutro chicken they got the runs so I only stick to lamb. If your on the chicken give the lamb a try you should see a difference...Good luck :)

As far as the training is concerned If your dog is dog aggressive I can totally understand ther trainer not wanting her to have access to other dogs in the class.You have to understand that no one wants to take their pup to a puppy class to be confronted with an aggressive large dog which could affect their pup for life...I would soon go else where. She is a large breed and could do damage to the other pups if she wanted.I would be very concerned that this pup is aggressive at such a young age...15 weeks?....and would be seeking proffessional advice.
Did you get her from a reputable source?

I just cannot see why you are having so many problems with this dogue, I am sorry but to have all the problems rolled into one dogue at such an early age, I have had large breeds for near 20+ years and have never encountered all these rolled into one 15 week old puppy, Is your mums dogue encountering these problems as they are from the same breeder, your dogue at this stage should want your attention and approval, so being wanting to please to get your praise, aggression should not be part of the exquation at this stage. Please get professional one to one help with your dogue or you are holding a time bomb at the end of your leash. Did you join the Dogue de Bordeaux club, from the information that I gave you, if not I have a form here that I can forward to you, Where in the country are you based I may be able to put you in touch with an experienced breeder that would be willing to help you, I do not like to see a Dogue de Bordeaux go bad and end up in rescue because of aggresion and the owner loosing control this only get the breed a bad name, which is easy for a breed such as this. Can you tell me if you have had experience of a large breed before as these dogues are not really for a novice owner unless you have plenty of back up from the breeder, what is the breeders stance on your problems, we have 4 10 week old pups at the moment, 2 waiting to go to Spain, mixed with 9 other large and small breeds with no problems. You have to make  sure that your pup knows from a very early age that you are in charge not your puppy, and it is still a size that you can exert authority from your position. please PM me if you need help with a helpfull breeder that may help you, as for diet has your vet run alergy tests
