[Pickle]

Hi there

Thanks for the advice. We did try taking him out for a walk to get rid of his energy. He had a 2 hr off leash run around. We tried ball but he would fetch and run straight back to our bitch.

We did tell him off every time, we tried verbal commands as well as noise distractions, water and ice, I never just watched him mount my bitch, he was removed away from her every time he got close. He is well trained but it seems that he has just discovered what he is supposed to do around bitches and it’s all new to him, he literally couldn't think of anything else, he couldn't relax and he never slept. We kept him in downs but as soon as he was released, he wanted to get near our bitch.

I couldn't keep them separated for the whole weekend, that would've been impossible with the layout of our property. I just didn’t know if he would stop if he was continually corrected. If he was mine, he would've been castrated a long time ago, but he is not.

I have boarded him at our local kennels, (I spoke with the owner first) I had to put my bitch first. It's a well respected kennels and I can get him throughout the day and spend time with him out on walks, playing etc (away from my girl) and on leash.

Thanks once again for the advice.
