    Thanks for your replies. I have been given her high value treats quite a bit recently when training, and I think she got quite used to it!! She then started to turn her nose up at kibble meals......I have left her food down for a bit longer incase she gets hungry or put it in pouch to give when...

    Not eating usual food?

    So our puppy vomited her breakfast 3 days in a row. She was super keen to eat it, maybe a bit too quickly and then vomited straight after. We did not believe she was ill as her behavior was the same, happy, active so when I went to work I left her with a kong as a 2nd breakfast so she wouldn’t...

    Help.

    We also have a puppy (4 months) who is doing exactly the same thing. You are not alone!! I also know how hard it is when they behave like this. My hands and ankles are also quite a mess and despite living in Saudi, I now wear jeans around the house as her biting is painful!!! I understand how...

    What do you do with early waking?

    She is very food orientated so could quite possible she she is hungry. She currently has 2/8 of a cup of kibble 3 times a day- this is according to guidelines on the food bag. Obviously she gets lots of treats for wees in the garden and we are training so extra treats there. She has a kong in...

    What do you do with early waking?

    Yes I thought so, but when it had been 6:15 consistently, you begin to feel a little cheated on missing out that extra hour!!!;);)

    What do you do with early waking?

    We cover her crate completely with a blanket - there is no light yet and no animals around us. She is very food orientated, so could be hunger. I will try giving her a biscuit before bedtime tonight and see if that helps.... Thanks.

    What do you do with early waking?

    Me again!! we seem to be on our way to resolving one issue and then bam....another one comes along to keep us on our toes:D:D:D What do you do when your puppy wakes up early?? Our puppy sleeps from 10:30/11:00pm until around 6:15am. However, every 2 mornings this week she has been waking around...

    Toilet training 12-week old pup so hit and miss

    Our puppy is 14 weeks old and we have not cracked it either. Our puppy slept in a crate from day 1 but the crate was in our room for the 1st week and she would sleep at 11pm. I would then wake up around 2/3am and take her out again and then around 7am. Once she was awake it was, like you say...

    How many treats is too many??

    Yes, we have been using the impulse training video and that is going well. We had an order of different chews last night and we were able to have a relatively calm breakfast without her biting our ankles as one kept her busy for a while!!! I am on another dog training group on Facebook and now...

    When did your dog have their first groom?

    Yes I agree. We will postpone it. I am going to try and train the 'very still' command!!

    How many treats is too many??

    The ankle biting is taking its toll. Really hit a new level a couple of days ago and no idea why. It's mainly me so goes for, I am trying to stay strong but it is exhausting and draining!!! She hasn't let up this afternoon and I had to distract her with toys, games and some crate training games...

    How many treats is too many??

    I am asking this as I feel as though I am constantly giving our pup treats! She eats 3 meals a day and we are battling a major ankle/hand biting problem. Based on some info from another website which someone recommended on here, (Thank you!) I have got 30 pea sized treats in a container and...

    "Nite, nite" - so where does your dog sleep?

    At 13 weeks old - she sleeps in her crate at night. During the day she snoozes on the floor in the dining room or kitchen. :).

    Anyone else recently got a new pup?

    We have people coming over tomorrow, so I will try and get them to ignore her for a while until she feels ready. I have read that sometimes it is better to have the pup in their crate as a safe place when guests arrive and then let her out? Would you agree?

    Anyone else recently got a new pup?

    After much thought and deliberation, we got a new puppy on the 25th November. We didn’t take this decision lightly as we had a sticky situation last year. We took in a rescue dog and to cut a long story short, things didn't work out- after 2 weeks of settling in, his behavior began to change and...

    How often do you walk your dog(s)?

    We have a 14 week old puppy who initially HATED walking. We had such a battle to get a lead on her and actually get her out of the door. We carried her initially to make her feel safe and secure and often just sat by the door watching the comings and goings!! Slowly but surely we are getting...
