I was going to say that I hope there isn't a limit to the amount of kongs to have in a day! Our puppy has one for breakfast, one for dinner, and...

Thanks @Michael A Brooks. You're right, I definitely need to manage my expectations as he's still a baby really.
Thanks both for your helpful advice, as ever. I was wondering if, on the basis of extending training into different environments, you had any...
I have a question regarding exercise. Yalom is 4 months old and we've been sticking to the 5 minutes per month of age of on lead exercise a day....
Thanks everyone. I've been trying to take myself out of sight today and yesterday, and although he's still doing it it's lessening. We even had a...
Thanks both. I will try going out of sight @Michael A Brooks and see if this helps. Some universities allow dogs - my university doesn't have an...
Over the past week Yalom has started biting/nipping at my legs, usually around or behind my knees. It is super painful and I have a whole load of...

Thanks @Joy Yes that's a good point. I mentioned to her that he isn't always very good at knowing when to sleep when there's lots going on, so...
So, I'm finally committing to starting a training log for our pup! I feel like it will be a good motivation and nice to look back and see our...

Mushrooms! I think that's what it was. I know there are some at this time of year near the river where we went for a short walk. I didn't even...
