    Biting puppies - aka ‘crocapups’.

    Cola prefers the "forearm chomp-and-shake" but the description is sooooo accurate and I guess "playtime thru the gate of a crate" is a bit similar to playtime from within the paddling pool with "jaws" on the outside

    I'm a nail trimming failure

    what about trying a scratch pad - I was thinking about trying this for Cola (all my dogs get their nails done differently - Foxy grinder (tolerates rather than loves) - Ellie holds her paws out (warily) - Tamber - lies on bed with paw dangling over the side - but only allows two cuts at a time...

    introducing Cola

    so after a few trips out in the van - with chew chew all the time - Cola is now fine with a smaller chewie which lasts while I am banging van doors and setting off - he then finishes this and now settles down as long as the van is moving - not sure whether he is sleeping or just resting, but...

    lead on harness

    Yes - a longer lightweight lead/long line - might be better - so for little butterfly distractions - I can just let him have some space

    lead on harness

    I think that would have to be for an older dog - there is no way Cola could catch a treat.

    lead on harness

    yes - with Jaffa I did cannicross so eventually the harness was def for pulling (please!) but not as a puppy

    lead on harness

    I agree with this - when Cola is older I'll get him a "perfect fit" harness which fastens round the head as well as round the middle - I find with Cola if the fit is right when on, its OK to put the harness over his head, but taking it off back over his head is a bit of a tight fit. Its hard...

    lead on harness

    Cola does lovely heelwork in the garden - started using the puppy natural follow and just click feed for position (repeat repeat etc) etc - so we have progressed this to having the harness on and me just holding the lead and that is fine until .....a butterfly passes or ... he's a puppy !- and...

    lead on harness

    introducing lead on Cola with a harness (He has been trailing it up until now) - just in the garden - but the moment he feels it tighten he kindof panics a bit and starts to fight it - I tried clicking as soon as it tightened a bit so he would kindof turn back to me - which worked once but then...

    paws crossed - I really like them - much quieter than other launchers and easy to use

    New toy!

    Is that the ilauncher one? (I ordered one in June, so I guess I have another 3 months to wait then !)

    introducing Cola

    I have discovered the puppy paddling pool !!! - is a great refuge from a crocopup !! - he hasn't quite mastered the pool yet, so I can stand in the middle and smile at him - now I just need to set up one inside the house too - hummm

    Jaffa not very happy getting into van near Mr Cola, so started some joint chew sessions in the van - sometimes so much to do and think of, to get everyone happy
