Not wanting to mind
He will be 9 mos old in a couple of weeks. Are these the teenage months that they talked about in training? Or has he forgot everything he was taught? Thanks Lisa and Frankie |

Oh, welcome to teenage hell. This too shall pass. Just pour yourself a drink and be calmly insistent that he DOES TOO know his own name

| It's called the stage where you swear their brains fell out of their head! First thoughts are of how much time (not to mention $$$$) you have wasted training. The answer is patience (not easy for most OES owners). Believe it or not, the brains did NOT fall out of their head. I tend to think of it as the cord came unplugged from the socket for awhile. In a short while (after several of those drinks Kristine mentioned, spread out over several days or weeks) it's like the plug finds it's way back into the socket & this bright light bulb comes on in their head & once again you think you have your dog back. The next thing to be ready for is their (you notice I said "their" & not "the trained") performance in the obedience or agility rings. Like I have said a million time, the next time I decide to get something to be competitive with, it's not going to have brains.....maybe a corvette for a car show or a doll for a doll show. Much easier on the nerves. |
My condolences  As Kristine said "This too shall pass" |
| Tiggy went there too! Actually she's probably still there a bit.
That's why Ron got us this emoticon  |
