Young Labrador showing aggression to some other dogs
Hello, My labrador will be three in a few months time and, until a month ago was fine with the vast majority of other dogs.

Could this be a bird's nest?
I've just found out I have something on my roof. Not under the eaves or where bird's nests usually are....it's actually centrally on my roof on top of the tiles.
