    I wonder roughly how long it should take to get through Total Recall. I have been going since October 2012 and still only at Calling away from people at the door. Feeling a little stressed that life is getting in the way of Charlie's training. Helen x :(

    I don't think anyone can answer that question, Helen. But I think what you have achieved so far is already a huge step in the right direction. :D

    That is dedication!! We've only just started - I'm just walking backwards with his dinner and pip-pip-pipping...guess I've got a long haul ahead. I don't know who I'm going to rope in for the other exercises - will cross that bridge later.
    Digby doesn't abscond like Charlie though - he just likes to charge up to EVERYONE and give them a big sloppy lab hello....less than ideal, especially when he goes 200m to do it. He always comes back when he's done it though so nowhere near the same issues as you have.
    Keep going...you've come too far to falter now. Wish I was close enough to help - although couldn't guarantee providing a calm dog for the early stages :)
