do retrieval training in the garden with a lead. It was how i began with our spaniel. He had been a stud dog in a puppy farm so all he had seen was a 4x4 cell. It took a while and 4 years down the line I can walk him in woods but wide open spaces still stress him out. Keep going as it is so...

I also have to say that micro chipping is not the be all and end all. My dog 'lost' its chip. That can happen apparently they move to the skin surface and then get expelled. i was advised by the vet, who by the way fitted the first chip, that I should have had the chip checked regularly. No one...

i have had dogs for many years and have never been as stumped with behaviour issues as I am at the moment. My spaniel whines continually whether or not he gets attention. he wakes at 4 in the morning and starts whining and then goes on to howling. I tried ignoring but I am so tired. I have...
