hairymuttly 8 Posted January 25, 2017 Report Share Posted January 25, 2017 After having a few issues with my pup and asking for help on here, things seem to have improved some what. She is still trying to dominate the older dog a little bit when out for a walk, but no where near the extent she did before. She ended up getting a bit of a hammering off the older dog the other day, which seemed to calm her down a little bit, I think she just over stepped the mark once to often. She doesn't try to dominate her in the house now. I have stopped her going in my older dogs bed. I have been doing some retrieve training with her at night and she is fetching a retieve back from about 15 to 20 yards now straight back to my hand time and time again. She sits on command now and will walk to heal on the lead. So after a very very frustrating start, she seems to have turned a bit of a corner now and settling down a little. She is still only very young and puppyish, but hopefully she will continue to progress well. Once again thanks for all the help off the guys that replied. I would post a picture but I don't know how to do it. 2 Quote Link to post
