This may warrant it's own thread but I thought anyone who may have advice would be looking here anyways.
I have 6.5 month old Goldendoodle that we got at 8 weeks (I'll upload photos later because he's pretty damn cut). He is very smart dog and knows a lot of commands very well. However there a few very important commands that he seems to ignore and I just can't figure it out.
1. He won't come when called. If we are at home or at a park alone he comes the first time every time. But if we are around other dogs or people or any distraction he just seems to ignore us.
2. He gets extremely excited when people approach him and jumps up a lot.
Does anyone have any advice or know of really good trainer at a reasonable rate or even an on line video or book that worked well for them. I would like to think he's just a teenager and will get over it but I don't want it to be too late if that's not the case.
Thanks in advance.
