She a lab retriever mix

We watch Cesaer all the time. A lot of what he does has helped as far as walking, my dominance as the pack leader. I've been doing what I can on my own but decided we need professional help. I spoke with animal control about her again and got yet another story of what background they knew on her so I'm not sure what her past is. I'm not a fan of crating and don't plan on ever doing that. Lil also has to have minimal exercise due to her bum knee but we make sure to play and walk as much as she can handle. She seems to want to have friends but needs help being able to actually do it. Plus I'd like her not to eat smaller animals (cats, squirrls).

I do have to give her a gold star as far as her work with my kids. She's listening to sit/drop/stay commands from the kids and the kids are doing better at giving her correct commands and praise as well.

my golden retriever and me
I did not go anywhere for ten years because my golden retriever would have a nervous breakdown if she was away from the family. She bit a family member when we tried to let her sleep over at another person's house and she would not eat one bite at the kennel, threw up everyday, and fell apart.

THIS TIME, when we got a puppy we PRACTICED boarding. She would go for a couple of hours, I would pick her up, she would practice an overnight visit, and I would pick her up, practiced getting a bath at the kennel, etc.

We taught the first dog to not be able to live without us. We taught the new dog that sleepovers are not the end of the world. It is a really good skill for dogs to learn.

Alternatively, a LOT of hotels take pets!
