| Sydney is now just 5 months old and walks are JUST starting to be fun for her..believe me it is an ongoing process that requires a LOT of patience. Is your pup food motivated ??? I ended up using a little squirt bottle with cold water when she was 3 months old, but in the beginning it was CONSTANT redirection..they just want to put every single thing they can into their mouths..as a matter of fact the couch is still a matter of contention with Sydney...not with my husband and her only me and her.
Sometimes the toys they like the best are simple things..an ice cube on a smooth floor, a stick, an empty gallon milk container, an empty water bottle.. a sliced knuckle bone..a piggy ear (under your supervision ONLY)..don't worry ....her interest in you in you will grow as you become entrenched in your pack leader roles. Also, once there is another doggie around that becomes the focus and they actually learn from the older doggies. |
