Do you think there is some sort of train the other half training we could go on??? I wonder if I used enough treats (beer? Crisps??) I could get...
Day 2 of puppy ownership, it snowed. I had been up all the previous night with a crying puppy. My husband was going away for a week leaving me...
We have stopped her meeting other dogs on the lead, as it just drives her crazy. If we walk past she gets over the excitement much faster and we...
We are having this with 8 month old Jessie . We had a 1:1 with our trainer on Saturday and she suggested a big handful of treats on the floor in...
Jessie is coming up for 8 months and it is getting better, but still lunges at people and other dogs, and she is much stronger now, so harder to...
Our's was an Ellie Boo one from Amazon (we are in the UK). I also got the divider off Amazon.
It is so hard, isn't it? Jessie was loud too, which was why I ended up sleeping close to her for a few nights as it was really upsetting my kid...
I'm sure other people will have suggestions if this won't work for you. Jessie was also in a kennel outside, but cried! She was 1 of 11, so I put...
I'm sure someone with more experience than me will come along with some help. But when we got Jessie she cried quite a bit, so I slept by her...
Hi I was also really dubious about the crate, but am a total convert! Having small children it is brilliant to keep them apart! But I think a pen...
Firstly, don't feel bad. You are doing your best. It doesn't seem she minds being alone? Maybe try leaving her for shorter periods out of the...
I have no idea! I think some people are trying to be friendly. Who knows. It drives me nuts too, as I have put so much work into her. The one that...
It is overwhelming! It does get better, honestly. Just build up the training very slowly. Start with a sit for a second in the house with less...
That sounds perfect! We have had Jessie separated far longer that I had anticipated. She still spends the majority of time in the kitchen as she...
Ditto to the advice about avoiding dog parks, we don't have them in the UK, but where I am we have parks with lots of dogs and that is just too...
We are working through this issue at the moment! Really practice your loose lead walking. I stop dead if she pulls and we go nowhere until she...
Welcome from first time dog owner Sally and 7 month old Jessie. Exciting times! No experience with that breeder. If you are on the waiting list,...
I would seriously consider going large with a divider as they grow so quickly! We got a 42' Ellie Boo one which has been good so far. Great with...
Thanks for the further advice! It was cold enough for gloves here yesterday (summer in the UK). I like the rucksack idea because at the moment I...
I think they work out how to tell you. Jessie taps the window with her paw, which has evolved from just pressing her nose against the window...
