High and welcome from me and nine month old Dexter. North is a very handsome chap, his markings are gorgeous :)
That's where training logs and filming come in really handy. It's so refreshing when you look back and realise how far you've come :D
Well done Charlie and you, together we help each other through the difficult times and celebrate our successes too, however big or small they are....
I thought I was doing this but now I know I wasn't. What I was doing was getting to where I wanted to get to, in no given time limit. Which is...
Yes, I tend to always say we have our moments, which we do. Okay, here goes, I have worked and still do work hard training Dexter and I'm doing a...
A blackbird this morning was a challenge :eek: but it was on the grass before the walk way that leads to the field. Dexter was rather excited so I...
Thank you, I feel in a much better place now. It was quite soul destroying when everything fell apart, I really thought I'd messed up big time....
Thank you, we are getting there, slowly but surely, one step at a time. My shoulders are less painful too, the bungee lead really helps absorb the...
I'm really lucky that my husband soon came around to the positive training way. I kept explaining what I was learning through reading books, this...
Don't feel awful, many of us are new to having puppies and are all learning along with them. Our pup Dexter has never been upstairs and is usually...
I definitely wouldn't let children use the clicker. I've only just let my hubby have one and he's using it for something that I'm not training...

Hmm, I hadn't thought about that. Hopefully someone more experienced than my can explain it. Sometimes I clicked and treated other times just...
After a few difficult weeks, I'm pleased to say we seem to be back on track. Now that my awful cough has eased somewhat and I'm actually getting...
@betty wiseman, I do lots and lots of training throughout the day with Dexter, some simple games too. It has really helped to keep him occupied....
If your puppy is kibble fed make her some Kongs from her food allowance. Soak the kibble in hot (boiled water that has cooled down a bit), fill...
Hi and welcome from me and nine month old (in 5 days, eek where did that time go) Dexter. Looking forward to following your journey. :)
Good girl, Hattie.
It's great watching them work it out isn't it. Keep playing it in short sessions, also C&T when Delta is being quiet at other times. These pups...
That look on her face as she looks at the other treat is so like my Dexter's. She is very clever. I'll have to try the take one. I balanced a...
