I wrote about 2 weeks ago about the problems we were having getting Callie to go outside, and other problems (mainly with toilet training, due to her fear of 'outside'). Well she now goes outside quite happily during the day and we catch pretty well all her wees out there :thumbsup:

She doesn't ask out (yet) but watching her, we have got to know the signs when she is needing to 'go', so we catch about 3/4 of the poohs too. She is worst at night, when she is still frightened to be out there. We live on the edge of the woods, so she is frightened by night-time woodland noises - but I think we'll get there, with lots of patience. :blink:

Here other problem is barking almost non-stop at dog training last week. this time, we are going to take a small water spray and hope that it is only fear barking and she will settle down. She learns very quickly at home, but we didn't realise she was aggressive to other dogs until we took her to training last week. She is good with our other 3 girls. A work in progress!!

here are a few pictures of Callie with some of her friends!!

First, making a sort of sandwich with Lly on the bottom!!

Sunbathing with Polly

She's very pretty and looking very settled - good luck with your next training - I haven't braved it yet - Bluebell has the opposite problem - way way too much confidence :lol: :wub:

Good luck with Bluebell!! We aren't looking forward to the next session one bit!!

Lily is 14-15yrs old and had a hysterectomy for pyometra about 3 weeks ago - she's doing really well. She is a tiny girl compared to our other 3 great lumps!!

She loves snuggling up to any one of them. She was rescued about 15 months ago and was so thin and weak we didn't think she'd live, but she is tough little nut!
