    Oh my poor Cassie

    Oh Cassie, what an expressive photo, tail down and she is certainly giving that place a good miss :inlove:

    Oh my poor Cassie

    I'm just catching up so I'm hugely relieved to see that Cassie's back to her usual happy self this morning. I'd say the clue to what she thought is in how she responded @Selina27 - she ran straight TO you. If she'd thought you had caused the shock, she would have backed away. It happened to...

    Which kibble

    You don't say which kibble though @Candy. I've seen Cassie and I know she does look very well and her coat is superb, so, at the moment I'm very much thinking Burns. If they have a single protein option that isn't chicken, I'll try that. Thanks for all your replies, they have helped me make...

    Eddie and Milo have reduced me to tears - now gotta go and re-apply the fizzog pollyfilla :facepalm: :wink:

    Which kibble

    I know we've been through this time and time again but I really think I need to try something else for Molly. Despite summer edning, she's scratching big time. We're pretty sure her allergies are environmental but, in an attempt to be absolutely sure, I'm going to try again to get the...

    What made you smile today?

    My great grandsons make cards for me when I give them anything and for my birthday. They mean more to me than anything that could be bought. Well done Nathan, I'm sure that lady was indeed thrilled with the card, the fact that he bothered and made an effort, bless him x

    Maybe Harvey's not a labrador?

    Plate would have appeared polished as if it had never been used. Molly would be licking her lips and doing that guilty thing with her ears :$

    Training Molly

    Thank you VERY much for this @Peartree . I'm pretty sure you've hid the proverbial nail in exactly the right place. Thinking about it, because she's looking away I've been getting closer, trying to encourage her to look at me but now you point it out, I've been almost forcing her, getting...

    Training Molly

    I would appreciate that. Unfortunately I haven't got the gear or opportunity to get a video, but thank you anyway.

    Training Molly

    I’m sure that @Beanwood can provide you with a wonderful video but I can give you some of my notes as I’m working through it at the moment with Pickle. These are the behaviours that you need to have before you can start getting your dog to ‘take a line’. Can you your dog stand or sit parallel...

    Not taking it any further

    Sounds exactly the right thing to do @kateincornwall . Being happy with your dog and knowing he's happy with you and what you do with him is what I'm sure we all want. It's one of the best feelings, the company of your loyal, loving dog. :heart:

    That's a good point @HAH about her seeing the field as an extension of the garden. We hadn't used it much until the end of lockdown, now it's almost daily.

    Change of behaviour

    There could well be things in the field she was after, she will eat all sorts of crap for sure. I'm sure there is no other dog than Freddie the farm JR and she sees him most days. She's just never gone off on her own before, it really surprised me that sh is that confident.

    Thanks @kateincornwall I think your fun training idea might well help. I fear I've been too serious with her since our gundog training started and she's losing the pleasure of it.

    PS - she is able to get under the fence at a certain point.
