    I'm not sure of the equivalent age :) but in terms of maturity this is real teenage time.....hormones, hormones!!! ;D

    awh he is being so good, :)........nothing seems to have changed with him,.......in fact i would go as far as to say his behaviour as improved :)

    i am not a fan of teenagers :)

    of course he's good he's a lovely, lovely boy ;D

    the only blip we had with Riley was his recall with other dogs around wasn't great but that was more our lack of training showing itself as he got more mature and independent

    Yep Lynne it is!hang onto your hat!im only teasing,we haven't had it too bad.the only thing I really noticed was he stopped coming and sitting on my knee for cuddles,he just puts his head on my feet now .....we've had really minimal humping,i was really expecting a LOT of that :eek: .It has been other dogs that get it and he does pack it in with a 'No Dexter ( doesn't mean he doesn't try and go back to it though ;) )chris felt he stopped recalling verbally to him too but that did coincide with me doing Total Recall so that could have purely
    been coincidence.He's not as responsive generallyto Chris but I think that comes down to me being with him more and taking main responsibility for him ,Jasper will grand x

    the recall from other dogs can be quite tricky,...........i am giving him 100 % training, ,,,,,,,,all we ever seem to do is train :)
    getting more cuddles these days, he must be a soppy teenager :)

    ah bless - Riley isn't really a cuddly dog but he does rest his head on my feet or leg when he's tired :)
