    Update on Toby the Bodeguero

    I know from my experience with Alex that the biting can be trained out. He went from regularly drawing my blood (little vampire!) to the sweet happy soul we have today. It takes patience and a hell of a lot of work but you can't give up if you have committed to a dog. Hopefully he will find his...

    Update on Toby the Bodeguero

    He is just such a lovely little chap. :inlove: Do you really mean that they were going to kill him??? I'm having trouble understanding what went wrong with his owners. My own crazy little Bod needs a lot of attention and brain games to keep him happy. Were they unable to provide this for Toby...

    So tonight I gave my toddler crack cocaine...

    Alex loves the ball too. He is one who, like Carbon, would carry on with the ball until he drops. I tend to use it as a high value reward now. A few throws as a reward and then some calming games. Moderation in all things means he gets what he loves and I get a calm Alex afterwards. :)

    The worst walk

    She probably went to A&E and had a dressing put on it with instructions to see her clinic's nurse to have it checked in a few days. That would count as "ongoing treatment". Honestly, I can't see this going far at all. Try not to worry. :hug:

    Introvert or extrovert?

    Introvert all the way. I am happy with my dogs and OH but I really don't enjoy social obligations and would always rather be at home. Social interactions are a chore.

    Crying before a poo?

    If he really doesn't need to poo and is forcing it then it could be giving him an ache. I would never cue for a poo. Just let it all happen more naturally.

    ALEX, the Bodeguero cross

    It's been a while since my last update but that is only because I have been busy with the dogs. Alex has grown in confidence and is a happy boy in every way. He and Amber are still as thick as thieves and always looking for trouble together. They often sleep entangled together. They look like a...

    We are all very tired today coz we had extra walks yesterday. Alex is so tired that he hasn't eaten his lunch yet! How does that werk? I offered to eat it for him but 'parently I'm not allowed.:'( Amber.

    The worst walk

    Goodness! How can you say you've let your dog down??? You most certainly haven't. That could have been any one of us with our dogs. Dogs do this sometimes. The silly woman just wanted to stir up some attention for herself. Just settle in for the evening with your lovely dogs and relax. It will...

    Keeping everyone happy

    You are doing great! Your dog and the children will all be safe because you are taking the time to listen to your dog. It's so important in a situation like this. Toddlers can't take the hint so it's up to us isn't it? Your dog spoke out clearly and so no harm was done. Well done.

    The Kennel Club - no hoomans allowed!

    Dad was laying a floor today. We helped lots! I bet he was pleased but it was hard to tell as he kept hiding his head in his hands. Amber.

    Three nights running ..

    Could it be something to do with the time change? Mine always get a bit offbeat after the clocks change, If it is the grass clippings then it will probably settle. Either way, I hope it sorts itself out quickly Kate.
