Does anyone have a Chocolate Lab? I have a 4 year old female. She is the highest maintenence dog I ever had. Demanding, head strong, smart, and cunning. This dog will slap me in the leg with paws, bark at me to get her a chew, every night at exactly the same time, empty out the toy box to find a specfic toy, on and on. She has sucessfully opened gate latches, toilet seat tops, even the kitchen trash container metal with a foot pedal is no match. She is a fun dog, atheletic, and friendly. Are all Labs this high maintenence? I also have a 2 year old Great Dane. She is clueless. Had a Border Collie for 17 years (yes 17) Never this demanding.
