Our Labrador - Chicken

Chicken is 3 and a half month black Labrador.

We have just acquired him from a breeder last month, that was two months after my best friend shinta - a yellow Labrador passed away at the age of seven years old.

Chicken has been a pain in the neck for he is full of energy and demanding for an attention from anyone that he think he deserves to have.

I use the word "demand" because literally that's exactly what he is bogging all of us about.

Sleeping time and we put him inside our room but on leash because he will chew everything if not, after an hour or two he will bark one, twice then thrice and me and my wife so furious and bark back shut up and he will response with a thousand bark that sounded like a machine gun.

He is doing the barking while staring straight in our eyes.

For three days I have this problem only to find out that we were so busy that we forgot his exercise thus he cant sleep with all of those unspent energy.

Everyday in the afternoon we will have a long walk and a fetch exercise to wear him out and the barking stop.

We have two dogs, shitsu and Labrador and the shih tsu's name is nica and she's four years old and for three weeks I suppose I can feel that nica really hate chicken because of his energy but now they are the closest of friends.

Chicken indeed is a pain but we love him and one thing for sure, he is very intelligent.

Housebroken for only 3 days stay here in our home and fetch easily anything you ask him to.

But still he is a pain hehehe but life without him wont be normal for me.
