I have her by me 24hr a day every day. she works with me and sleeps with me. what happens when I need to go away, she will be alright. Just because I am different in my thinking doesnt mean I dont love my dog. She has her own room with a queen size bed in it if she so chooses to sleep there, she is never left unattended outside. I even take her with me when I shop. I'm sorry you dont agree but that's okay. I still value your opinions and will still continue to read this site and post. perhaps it is me who needs to learn to be away from her. I spoil her something fierce and usually give in to her so that probably is really the real reason deep down inside. I'm soft not lazy
No you are LAZY!!
Soft is just a good way of being lazy. A lazy owner does not bother correcting for bad behavior. A lazy owner let's the dog get away with bad behavior. A lazy owner says they "spoil" the dog...but all they do is allow the dog to get away with bad behavior...and then smile and think it is cute.

They may train her at this obedience school...but once she comes back to you with all of your inconsistent behavior and training...she will go right back to the old behavior.

It takes a hell of a lot of work to train and raise a dog properly...and people that do have the reward and the companionship. Sending a dog away...is not what good dog owners do.
