i have 3 kids, but i want her to have more socialization than that... other than the parks, where are some good places to bring her? also she still jumps on the kids, not on me, just the kids... how can i get her to stop? the boys are getting tired of it... lol oh and she is 10 weeks old.

you have to teach the kids to not allow it too. why did she stop jumping on you? have the kids do the same thing. if they are young kids then you need to teach her not to jump as well.

i also goto parks and walks around the city for socializing. im going to take him to pet smart tomorrow and see how that goes. take her to friends houses too

yeah she got that i was ignoring her, but the kids are all 5 and under, so they just dont get it. im working with her to tell her no/stop and she is getting better, usually just hearing me say it is enough to get her to stop, but the kids are still getting tired of it. i think its just going to take time.
as far as petsmart, that is an hour away... i cant get up there often enough to help her with the socialization there... i will be bringing her to our local petstore, but it is so small that not many dogs go there. also are pets really allowed in the tractor supply?

My kids are a little older, but my dogs have been to many soccer practices! There's usually three or four teams practicing at one time, and no one would even notice if one of your kids wasn't on a soccer team....

Playgrounds, schools at bus drop off and pick up times, sporting events and practices at the local schools, county fairs, parades, festivals...

Hello….I has 3 kids and they are very crazy to wear Halloween costumes. This year I promised to all if they got above 80% marks then I gift them Halloween costume and now I like to gift them scary costumes. Please suggest me any store from where I get costumes at reasonable price.

scary costumes
