What about if your dog habitually vomits any food given to her that isnt damn James Wellbeloved or atleast, hypoallergenic ? I mean, shes a lab so shes gonna love it whatever but would u say its the variety of food that excites the dogs mind or just the prospect of food?

Also, one other thing i need to iron out before. When she does decide to chase you as you are running away, she'll put a quick end to it by biting the nearest limb and dragging you to the ground, if you resist then she will simply bite harder and begin to shake from side to side untill flesh or clothing begin to tear.

We have never allowed her to jump and always give a "No" and ignore her when she does it, but jumping seems to be reward enough for her. I dont want to be running away from her, she jumping and biting me and then me turning and giving masses of wonderful treats for it, that surely will tell her that jumping up and dragging owner to ground = nicer food than usual.

Any ideas ?
