I Interesting. But the copied entry caught my eye. Such training may encourage your dog to take the remote behind the couch where you can't...
It seems to me that your dog may be anxious/fearful.. When the dog or person walks away, your dog feels that it can give voice to that anxiety...
Okay @Madone thanks for the clarification. Since your dog is now well and truly out of the socialisation period, it is not necessary that she...
Thanks @Madone for the reply. One hour for lunch time is way too much time. You could end up with a fussy eater. Is day care a good idea? It...
Hi @Caspercrazy Does the jumping occur at the start of the walk? Do you take our dog for a walk after he has been sleeping? I'm trying to assess...
Hi @Madone Is dog camp the same thing as day care? My defnition of day care is a creche for dogs with may be one or two handlers acting as...
Hi @Anthony Abrao If you look up directional jumping you'll find some coverage of hand signals that indicate to the dog in which direction to...
I know a lot of people recommend such a procedure. I don't find it very useful. It is awfully difficult not to say something when a big Lab is...
The danger of using a line in water @Anthony Abrao is that if it gets snagged on something then the dog can be endangered. I would not use a line...

Hi @TEE Good work. My ears pricked at your observation that she is enjoying it. Good training. Motivation is a principal component of any...
Hi @NickySW You might try the following 10 metre long line...
Hi @siljenora Although we don't have the opportunity to view your dog, scenarios 1 and 2 appear to be just manifestations of a dog that wants...
Hi @siljenora A Freedom harness will give you more control over a dog that lunges and pulls. Attach the lead that has snap hooks at both ends to...
Hi @Wens The likely explanation for the behaviour is lack of socialisation when the dog was in the window from 3 to 16 weeks. Since you don't...
Hi @NickySW The operative theme you mentioned. You let the long line trail along the ground with your foot hovering over or near the line, ready...
Be careful though. Some muzzles will still allow the dog to eat a plastic bag. I would keep the dog on a long line, while keeping an eye on the...
Hi @DavidH If your puppy is in the range 8 to 16 weeks, then my advice is to place more emphasis on socialisation. By all means reward the puppy's...
