Thanks all for the words of wisdom. Hopefully she'll be a star as you say. I've noticed that she goes through stages of being a real idiot for a...
Actually just had quite a good walk where Peps redeemed herself somewhat. She did have a 10min period of lots of stopping but got over it after a...
Hi, yes she does have a harness. She went through this phase before actually and putting the lead on the front loop did help sometimes... thanks...
You've hit the nail on the head there. Looks like an adult, strength of an adult, mind of a deranged baby dog! :p I live in the UK so my...
Hello all, So we're going on holiday for two weeks on Saturday, and taking the mad furry beast (Pepper) with us. I was looking forward to this,...

Hello everyone, I'm new to posting on here, although I read the threads really often and find them great for hints and tips (and sometimes just...
Hi Karen, funnily enough I just wrote you a response which didn't send as well! Thanks for your message. Unfortunately neither of us work within...
Hi Karen, thanks for your reply. We don't work within popping home at lunch distance sadly or we definitely would. Pepper gets so much attention,...
