Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
^ That is quite impressive! Today was the first day Alamo has seen any snow. He was having a great time until he saw the trash can in the backyard. He went running for his mommy! We have also been working on his tricks and he is progressing nicely.
Enjoying the snow...
Wait just a minute!
Ya man, mines 12 yo. Still chewing shit up! It's a Lab thing. Great Dogs though!Originally Posted by T-Giv
Honestly I can't wait for him to be an adult. He is a great puppy but I have to micromanage him all freakin' day. It'll be nice when I can let him go cruise the yard solo and not worry about him chewing the tops of my sprinkler heads off anymore.
Be true to your Family and Friends! A handshake, and your word is all it takes!!
Couple updated pics! He is growing like a weed! He also has quite the time playing with buckets. I'm glad he likes cheap entertainment! If you are bored there is a video as well.
Nice looking Pup

I will pass that along to him. Won't be long and I won't be able to call him pup.
He is awesome!

Thanks! My next goal is to get him comfortable around guns. I have to break him in slowly but hopefully he does okay!
Do it the right way or he will never come back around. Once they are truly scared of something it can be super difficult to turn them back around.
What is the right way? I took my 10 month old lab pup out into the national forest and shot my .22 about a hundred times with him sitting at my side. You could tell it made him uncomfortable, but he didn't freak out or anything. He was more interested in the new scenery of the forest and kept wandering away to sniff things. When I moved up to a 9mm, he wouldn't stay next to me - I think it was hurting his ears. When I fired my AR, he was laying down about 20 ft behind me. This still made him uncomfortable, but he didn't freak out or try to run away. Did I do it the "right way?"

I have no idea. I was also just going to start with a .22. My dog loves stuff like the lawn mower, weed eater, vacuum, etc. Whenever I use them he always stands in the way and barks. He clearly thinks it's a big game. I even did a burnout on my motard yesterday to see if he would freak out and he just looked at me for a second and then started dancing all around. Not sure how he will take guns though. Can anyone provide some solid answers for the "right" way to introduce him? Should I get him some puppy muffs or something to protect his hearing?
