That's a really lovely dog, unfortunatly is a very big dog that's hard to live with if not properly trained. Its a little late to start now when the dog is 5 years old, now all the bad habits are very stuck with it. It's not impossible but you really ahve to work hard if you want to change the way your dog act. You have to be firm.

A dog can be trained at any age. However, when they're a little older, it's best to seek a professional trainer in your area to help you. Crate training will really help with a naughty puppy. Don't use the crate as punishment, but more of a bedroom for your dog. Make sure that you can always watch your dog whenever he is out so that you can disrupt any bad behaviors.

Can you tell us more about what your dog is doing that makes he or she that naughty. I may be able to suggest some things to you if i know what the dog is actually doing when it is being naughty. You can respond and let me know.
