Wow good girl Libby! We did the great De-crating later with Indie, at 9 months we were still losing the corners of our coffee table! You should be...
Me again, with my millionth question! Just wondering what is the best way to build desire for the dummy, and also tugging? Desire for the dummy...
Thanks so much that is very helpful! So, these times when she ignores me, the distraction seems very transient and never something I am aware of....
First of all, I apologise in advance for the flurry of questions I am going to post in the next few days - decided to get myself sorted with a...
He's pretty rubbish at the ukulele though to be fair :rolleyes:
Our old cross breed we had when I was a teenager used to howl when I played my violin. Mum said it was hurting his ears (how rude!) but we did...
oh good idea! A deer park and long line could work, if I am constantly vigilant...and some rabbit pen training would be amazing, I will look into...
ah good advice - unfortunately, Indie isn't too bothered by balls when there are real-life furry squeakers to be had :( even if she gets a whiff...
thanks! yep you are right, its just so challenging trying to read a situation in a split-second and decide whether it is right to attempt a recall...

Yes I see your point. She generally only has to walk short distances on lead nicely before we get to an off lead (well, training line currently)...
Yes please! Indie is perfect sometimes and then other times it's like she's back to square one. She's an infuriating little piglet.
Oh sorry where you said 'the dog hardly moves out of position and there is tension on the lead' I misread it as meaning there WAS tension on the...
Thanks so much, this is v helpful! Yep I think I am going for an approximation of heel - I want her broadly alongside me, and I don't mind her...
It's a good question DebzC, we've been having similar issues! So JulieT how do yours come back into position if they pulled during loose leading?...
indie had her first snowy walk today. She was hilarious - she first started biting the snow and running round with chunks of ice in her mouth,...
Oop sorry never saw your reply. That would be great :) I don't drive either (well I have a licence, but haven't driven for 10 years and now have...
