Can an old dog be taught new tricks?

[haywood]

How old is "too old" when it comes to retrievers? My future wife has 2yr old lab and she never deceplines her. The dog has no manners, and does whatever she wants. Although she does a good job when it comes to sitting and retrieving, thats about it. Is it too late to teach my fiancee's dog new ticks?

No, its not too late. Start with basic OB like you would a puppy.

if it's to late, you can always get a new fiancee'

haha, that is one possibility, but i'm hanging on to her. I will be able to spend more time and start over with the dog when I finish school in May and move home.

I read somewhere that a trainer taught an old dog to fly a small plane I think it was on here , but i cant remember the thread ,,,,,,,maybe someone else will know how to find it .
