    Sitting/stopping on walks

    Thank you Helen Wells! I don't know if Robin will EVER be calm! LOL He has in a couple of hours today, torn more wallpaper off the wall, shredded a lead lent to me by someone, torn his Christmas Teddy apart and deposited the stuffing ALL round the lounge and dining room! Put blood and gore...

    Sitting/stopping on walks

    Perhaps you might like to swap your angel for my devil for a day? My Robin is 6 months old and quite a large breed. He stops, lunges, jumps up and mouths anything and everything he can get at. We frequently hold up the traffic having been dragged into the road! (Thankfully most of the drivers...

    Pup eating poo

    Oh dear! I feel for you I really do! My dear little soul, now 6 months old does exactly the same! I could vomit! What is interesting for me is that he is VERY selective! So I would agree with JoanneF that it is possibly a deficiency, or just a liking of something in the poo. If you manage...

    Barking and Biting on walks

    Hi, I have some difficulties with my 6/12 old puppy too! Don't despair! I think with mine it may spark from getting tired, getting over stimulated, excitement - if you eliminate all of those things, you might have a quieter, compliant puppy - so my thoughts are that I could get rid of the real...

    Bedtime problems

    Would it not depend on what KIND of bark he is making, for example an excited bark, or an aggressive bark?

    Dogs aren’t the only animals affected by fireworks

    It is heartbreaking! There is a movement in UK, to ban fireworks, but the 'powers that be' aree saying there is too much to loose by banning them! Ha, Too many lives to loose by NOT banning them is nearer the truth! I would like to see the fireworks be reduced in volume, only on special...

    Shocked at how these shock collars are promoted for sale

    Kontiki, I guess you are right of course. More is posted, but do you also think that some people are becoming very monetary focussed and therefore less considerate to the animals (and humans actually, thinking about what the World Health Organisation do to humans!) - btw, what DID happen to...

    Robin is in trouble with dog owners!

    Thanks for that will check it out! I did do all the flat work and slopes bit, didn't do the stairs because I never thought of that! LOL But I had a Freelander at that time which made the ramp exponentally steep I guess. Anyway sold that as it did not seem very strong anyway! So I sold the...

    Robin is in trouble with dog owners!

    Hi, JudyN. Car training is = 'going'! LOL. He has to pass the car every time we leave the house and always has a sniff and goes up to the back of the vehicle where he gets in (or not!) So today we were at the get the front end in bit with a bit more relaxed attitude. Then he leapt in =...

    Robin is in trouble with dog owners!

    JoanneF, yes great idea, I do go different routes and different times, but can still vary this a bit more. Robin sleeps till late in the mornings, which is great I get a lie in, but bad, slows me down! Would often be up at 4.30 to get the horses done in the winter. Now, Hmmmmm! LOL So I get...

    Robin is in trouble with dog owners!

    Hi, and thanks for putting so much effort into teaching me! I really do appreciate all the help and advise all of you are giving me! Robin is a social pup and the special one of the litter! So I would say his quality of life would be marginally affected. However, I TOTALLY agree with upping...

    Overconfident (or bad mannered?) giant pup

    What a breath of fresh air that was! I laughed so much! Just the sort of thing my pup would do too! Thanks for sharing a happy day!
