Thank you both for your help ,after reading both answers i realised that everything you were saying made sense . I wasnt making anything fun , i was speaking to her in the same tone of voice and everything was training and no fun . it was no wonder she didnt want to know me ! I am so glad i posted this on here as it was beginning to get me down a bit , but now i look foreward to some fun times with my dog . so thank you both once again ! by the way poody is the same as sulking !
