Definitely back to basics - Baxter has been fine for the last couple few months (was 1 this week), but we've had a nightmare week and I think he must have had a big surge of testosterone or something!!!
He's been like a mischievious pup again for the last few days and we've had to be so strict with him, but he's coming through it today and is a bit more like his old self.
Try making her work for EVERYTHING, every scrap of food, every hug - sounds quite harsh, but tbh they love it and it seems to focus his brain a bit. I made Baxter train for his worming tablets last night!

Oh No - the shopping bags!!!! LOL
I feel a lot better now though since I can see that it isnt just my doggie!! I will just keep a closer eye on her and keep with the training.
She was good at the field the other day as she ran towards another dog and I called her and she CAME BACK!!! She usually totally ignores me when there is another dog so that was a step in the right direction.
I guess it is just patience patience patience!!
Sonia, when did you get another dog????!!!!! OMG you are so brave!!! See what happens when I go AWOL for a while? I miss so much!

hehehe we adopted Millie about a month ago. She is about 12 - 14 months (a choccie girl) and was following her story on here. First she was adopted by Fionapie - but it didn't work out for her unfortunately - then Labradorable fostered her - another long story lol - and when I heard she was up for adoption, well I just had to! Luckily Gracie is still such a laid back pup, that having 3 isn't much harder than having two. Just extra walks for me!
