| Sansano, why is it such a bad idea to have three puppies and what is it about litter mates that makes it that much worse?
Brooke, I have them all in crates that have divider panels in them so they can grow into them. Right now their crates are pretty small. except for Diesel, he has his whole crate. They are now 17 weeks old and are let out every 4 hours. Diesel doesnt have a problem at all because he doesnt want to lay in his own stuff but the girls act like they don't care. Also about the "come" command, I understand about enforcing it but my problem is to get them over their fear of the leash. That is really a big problem they just freeze when ever I put it on them. I am dying to take them for walks but they wont budge when the leash is on them. I work with each of them one on one for about 30 minutes a day. I also have gotten to where I take them outside by themselves first to make sure they go potty because if I let them out together then they tend to play and forget to go to the bathroom until they are back in their crates. It has helped a little. Thanks for you advise and I am going to keep working with them and their leash training and as soon as they are comfortable with it then I will enforce the come command. Once again thanks for your advise.  |
