We adopted our Alaskan Malamute/husky (alusky) last summer. He has gone through 7 families before and I think I'm starting to see why. He literally only cares about food. He only comes to us to socialise when there is food on the table. I have had a husky before and he was rescued by me and...

Hi I've a rescue terrier who is absolutely adorable. I've had her for four months. Training is going well, with one hurdle, separation anxiety. Which is why I joined. I'd love to hear from anyone who has had a dog and found a solution. I'll give anything a go.

I love watching it and learning new ways to train a dog. I managed to get Lady to stop attacking the lounge door whenever someone knocks or rings the front door just by using one of Victoria Steelwell's commands (not sure if I spelt her surname correctly). What is your opinion on the series?
