That's how it seems to go. I look forward to hearing how the gundog training goes. Great avatar.
@Atemas , so as not to impinge on your wonderful thread, I'm doing my own. :) Cassie soon got the idea of lying on her mat when I eat or have...
I really like that approach.
There's a lot to be said for that, I did too and found that it was amazing just how much had gone in in those early months that some how just...

It's definitely horrid when people behave like that, selfish and bad mannered. On Sunday at the coast I had 2 very different experiences with dog...
I suppose they all try our patience sometimes. I think I would struggle to get Cassie away from a foil food container -- unless I would just...
No, I don't think so, I've had bitches in the past that didn't cause brown patches.
I was only thinking today that Cassie's wee doesn't seem to be burning the grass anymore. I was amazed last year that the grass she wee'd on went...
Hi Jemma, a big hello from me and 14 month old Cassie.
You have my sympathy - I have a 14 month old in whom this behaviour has resurfaced, in her case following a phantom pregnancy. I'm not an expert,...
It's hard when they're so relentless, but clinging on to what's going well is the key to getting through whatever is going on. I'm having an issue...
How right you are.
