    you can also throw the ball behind you and send the pup.As he picks it up keep walking away and as he comes in crouch down and make a fuss of him.If he picks something up in the house you don;t want him to.Exchange for a toy.Never tell him off.Enjoy your pup

    The eye looks like it has a slight lack of pigment in the eye.This is perfectly normal and will have no effect on it eye sight

    Take it out with another dog that retrieves out side.Let it watch and then put the older dog on the lead.Move away from it.Throw the ball a little way,crouch down and call the pup when the ball is in it mouth.Loads of praise and then repeat.

    Get the kids to call the pup,puppy.They will keep repeating it untill it means nothing.Only you should use it;s proper name

    sit on a chair,dummy in one had treats in the other.If the dog touches the dummy give it a treat.If the dog mouths the dummy give it a treat.He will make the conection between holding the dummy and getting a treat.Once he understands what you want add the word hold.Do this everyday for a week.Indoors or in a small area. Drop the dummy on the floor and tell the dog to hold.When he pics it up exchange for food.You can make a game of it and hide it and then use the hold word.When this has been properly learnt you can try it outside..before you move on makes sure the dog understands fully what yo

    crouch down and offer her food.What ever you do,don;t grab her and while she is eating,put your hand underneath her chin to clip the lead on,not over her head.If you grab at her,it will make her hand shy and she will start to circle you.Once they become hand shy their recall can take months to sort out

    Put some treats in your pocket and every time you say it;s name feed it.If you have kids,tell them to call it puppy,other wise they will keep saying it;s name and ruin any recall training you are doing.Clicker training is amazing.Have a look on you tube

    we have a german shepherd near where i live and she ties it to the push chair, and when it see;s another dog it goes ballistic.It is about 5 years old and a complete pain in the asrse.I told her to give it a ball to carry and when it see;s another dogl ,it bites down on the ball and is now silent.

    buy a dog head collar and hold it tight up to his chin,it will give you a lot more control.Once he;s had a run he should settle

    That made me smile seeing her.My friend was one of the ones that booked her.But her boyfriend wanted a beardie/grey.So thats what they went home with.Glad to see her in a nice home.I own Arthurs litter sister

    Also if your pup gets hold of something you don;t want it to.Call it towards you and exchange for something it can have.I never use any negatives on my dogs and they bring anything and everything to me.Most gun dogs are ruined by the time they are 12 weeks old,where retrieving is concerned because people think they learn like humans.If you think dog all the time you will go far.

    when you go and get the pup,take her with you and get her to hold the pup on the way home.If it throws up you might have to try a different tactic though
