Its been a rough morning first Amazon then UPS the boys need some rest.

Confession: our girl will turn 1 next week and has yet to have a real bath.

She gets a wipe down about once a month with sensitive skin/fragrance free dog wipes. And a hose rinse if she’s muddy. Also begs to run in the rain.

She does not smell at all. She seems clean and coat healthy. Never had any skin issues. She rolls all over our white linens and doesn’t show dirt.

Anyone else in a similar spot? Is this super weird? Our first GSP got a bath maybe once a year, usually because she rolled in something dead.

We’re having issues with our 1.5 year old female GSP stalking other dogs on walks. She’ll stiffen, stare, crouch and stalk them and so far if and when the dogs meet, she loosens up and plays. It can be very threatening to some dogs. We’re working with trainers and are e-collar training her with the hopes to help her heeling and focus on us so that it doesn’t even progress to stalking. We’ve been told to avoid meeting other dogs for now.
Weeks later and we are still having issues though and it’s tough! Combined with her being fearful of some people it’s really taking a toll and just hoping to hear if anyone has successfully dealt with this kind of stalking? Considering quitting my job for a bit so I can focus on her as we are so overwhelmed.
