My dad is thinking about picking up a 1 year old male GSP that has had 1 season of hunting this Friday. I currently have a 14 month old female choc Lab and was wondering if it would be a good idea to keep the 2 in the same kennel for now.

My Lab is an outdoor dog, and I currently have her in a 12x6 kennel. Her dog house is a custom built 4'x 4'.

The reason why the owner is giving it away, is because it doesn't get along with another one of his male GSP. I don't know which one was the aggressor, but will find out this Friday.

But if it were the aggressor, since our dog is female, she would be more submissive and this could work right? She is great around kids and gets along with other dogs. Plays a little rough with smaller dogs but I have never seen any aggression.

My plan was to keep the GSP in the garage at night, and have them out together during the day (monitoring) for a couple days, before having them in the same kennel.

I really want this to work since it is too dang cold, and there is too much snow to rearrange the yard.

Any input is appreciated.

Thanks

Just because your current dog is female does not imply that she will not be agressive at all. I have a female as well that loves people and other dogs, and never shows agression. On the other side though, when we watch other dogs, and they try to establish themselves over her, she doesn't respond very well. She wont attack them, but will let them know they do not "rule the roost." So don't expect your current dog to be submissive.

So we picked up the GSP (Hunter) this past Sunday, and though I was skeptical at first, it turned out to be a great move! He was really underweight, but besides that had a great attitude and is pretty obedient. He is gradually gaining his weight back.

Turns out that there wasn't really an aggression issue, the owner couldn't afford him and had to let him go. He gets along great with my lab and they share the same dog house (for now).

He has 4-5 hunts under his belt. Can the opener be any longer!

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
