You have so much experience with so many different pups I can see from readin that, your comments are taking with a HUGE thanks, and I will take them on board, having had no puppy contact for 6 years since Brandy was one, sometimes you just like to check your doing things right or how you can improve! Thanks again, hoenstly :) I've only been doing this six months! Don't take my word as perfect knowledge. I care for 4 puppies at the moment and they're all around 5-7 months now, so just what I've learnt with them I've never had a pup of my own younger than 5 months. I think with training/learning ability it depends on the dog, so I agree with Tafia - my weimy puppy learnt really quickly, anything we could teach her, and anything we didn't mean to teach her, but did. Today she was about 30 feet away from me, and I raised my arm for a distance sit (I think she has done some at training with her owner, but the compounds are barely 15 feet long) and she looked at me for a few seconds, then sat! My Fred can't/won't do it from 10 feet yet! She was also giving me perfect heelwork from very early on (lost that over xmas sadly). On the other hand, we're still working on getting a 5 month daschie to sit, and he won't walk on a lead at all! Little buggers. ;)
