Hi Dee,
Bailey has taken to his crate remarkably well and the couch has been untouched ever since. He does still steal food, socks and items from the bin given half the chance but at least he's not wrecking the furniture. This week Bailey decided ...
Hi Alison,
so glad to hear Bailey seems to be coping alot better now, learning to relax even when on his own - I'm surethose extra walks help too!
You may be interested in getting this excellent book:
'Ain't Misbehavin' - a good behaviour guide ...
Hi Dee,
Definitely Bailey as we shut our other dog in another room to stop her stealing all this toys and treats. He's been a completely different dog since we borrowed a crate from our neighbour last week. A whole week and the couch is untouched!...
Hi Alison Sorry to hear Bailey is doing this perhaps if you get a crate to put him in while you are out and at night with his toys give him his own space i am sure he will settlle he wil;l still have the hormones of an un neutered dog
Are you sure...
Bailey's Tongue
I've been reading all the tips everyone has given, and i surely agree that your dog needs to get used to be alone without feeling insecure.but i'd also like to suggest another command I've thougt my cocker so years ago. This was a particularly str...

- Hello Alison,
thanks for your message, so pleased you have actually got the book! I bet you spent all night reading it...? It found the book a great help for my training classes and general recommendations for puppy buyers. I find the book explains clearly how behaviour problems crop up and what we can do against them - without resorting to unnecessary harshness.
Dog training can be hard work - but also great fun!
all the best

- HI,
Lucy is my pups Mum, Jessie and Poppy the dogs in the photos.
Lucy and Shana (sisters) were homed together the same week you had Bailey.
I spend quite a lot of time over the kennels helping to groom my dogs with Dee as we show ours.
I thought Bailey was gorgeous and had lots of cuddles with him.

- Hi Alison,
Welcome to the forum! Hope you'll have lots of fun here. I've just read your discussion and wish you lots of luck with your young boy... He looks quite cheeky in your photo ;-) Whereabouts in Scotland are you?
Many greetings from Edinburgh and looking forward to seeing lots more of photos of your boy :-)

Barbara said… - Oh yes - I see what you mean - total rogue and totally loveable!! But he's simply gorgeous too.
I have taken both my boys training to get them through the Kennel Club Good Citizens scheme - Harry has his Gold - and that WAS hard work - simply stuck at it and we got there in the end!! With Alfie - I thought it would be easier - but how wrong I am - he's much more stubborn and very strong willed - but we have loads of fun.

- Hi Alison
Your comment on my page has made me laugh ;-)) Oh boy how do I answer you on how to tame the 'beast within' - they are all like that!! Just set the boundries and be consistent in your approach to everything he does and thinks - his eyes will tell you so much - just wait and see. It seems the beast can be tamed look at his eyes in your profile picture. I am sure you will have loads of fun with him and more importantly him with you.
