only joined this site on the 16th asking for advice about my boisterous rescue dog.Most people suggested socialization & training.Id been doing training at home but on thursday we took "Kez" to his first obediance class.thought he would be a nightmare but he was a star:) we cant wait for class 2 on thursday.After his initial excitement he just settled down to the job in hand,being in a room with all the other dogs was training in its self.
All the other dog owners were great & all sympathised with our problems/fears,each & everyone of them had been through(& survived )week 1.After obediance were off to agility--note to self,must buy a sports bra!
Anyone who has a dog thats got loads of energy i would recomend training classes,we feel now that there is light at the end of the tunnel & i know it aint gonna happen overnight & we will have set backs but thats life.
Listen to me,this our 4th rescue dog(over 20 yrs) & the only one that we taken to training but i wish we`d done it sooner. samchops x
