Gonna do Finn da broosh later (brush him), and some training (leash, work on sit, maybe try to introduce 'down')

Oh, and before anybody gets shocked if they read my posts in other threads

Deacon might be rehomed. I'm going to college soon, he cannot come with because of dog aggression. I'm going to try and work with a trainer and if the trainer deems him safe on campus with other dogs, then he will come with me as an ESA (yes, I am quaified to have an ESA. No, I am not bringing my dog only because if I don't he'll get rehomed. its a nice bonus, though). My dog is HIGH ENERGY. Its clear he will not be slowing down any time soon. My parents are not equipped to take care of him. I've seen how they take care of him when I'm out for the weekend. They don't let him out of the kennel but to pee twice a day because he "has too much energy".. bruh just play tug with him for a few mins and he'll fall asleep-- excuses.

RIGHT!!?! People are so judgemental about bitework

Properly managed bitework is gorgeous to watch and I see no issue with it- but I did read something where a guy started his dog in bitework, and taught it to chomp HARD, but never trained it to let go- this was a GSD. Big powerful dog that's trained to bite but not let go did NOT end well.

and certain breeds too. Even if the GSD or Mal or Rottie or whatever it was was doing agility they’d probably be scared

I must be broken- I see a GSD and go 'OOH PRETTY PUPPER CAN I PET SO MAJESTIC I LOVE'

I'm so sorry

I'm so sorry

It sucks, but its whats best for my dog. If it comes down to leave him home so I can play with him when I come home, but when I'm not home he's always in a crate. Or give him to somebody who will treat him as a pet rather than a chore... I'm choosing a different home.

He'd honestly do great in either a retirement home or a sport dog for a professional trainer. He's a very versatile dog.

Want the deacon who will sleep all day with a few breaks for tug, or do you want the deacon who will happily run for miles with you? he's really the perfect dog. Very balanced.

Anyways, Deacon and I are both going to take a nap now. Then we're going to try and do disk. I need to learn how to throw, and he needs a better send out
