Days 6 & 7

Still clean through the night and no destruction either. Freya is beginning to get into the routine of things and starting to relax.

When she first came, the moment you spoke to her she felt she had to get up and come over. Here is a short video clip where I speak to her over the stair gate. She remains lying down, wagging her tail. She is learning so much so quickly.

Spudsy and Freya have met off lead in the garden, both going out for pees. No image unfortunately as all eyes were on both dogs!

Lovely polite behaviour with lots of sniffing.

We continue the walks, using calm and quiet body language and lots of praise. We can now walk on a shorter lead and she is already learning to stop when I stop without needing a cue to Wait or Stay. She lip licks in this video clip but you can see her body language is improving as is her walking position.

We now have only one stair gate between the dogs with lots of sniffing and polite body language.  Freya is now enjoying hunting for treats too.

When introducing puzzle and enrichment games we need to make it easy for them to succeed so they will be encouraged to have a go. 

Day 8 to follow……..
