Hello!

At what point did those of you who have successfully weaned your dog off their meds start the process? Did you wait until you’d reached your goal and were comfortable things were sorted, or did you wean them off and continue the training?

Also, at what point did you consider the issue ‘fixed’ ie not watching the camera like a hawk for every absence and not having to do active training every day?

We are up to 1.5 hours and he is consistently hitting that every time. I don’t think it will be long until we’re at the 2-3 hour mark which is all I’ve ever wanted to be honest so I’m trying to think ahead for the next steps.

Many thanks

Is possible to teach a dog how to play well with others?

There is a new puppy in the family (not our household) an we’ve been introducing them slowly.

Whilst my dog is usually chilled, he definitely likes his own space when he’s around other dogs. He likes to play for 10-15 mins then be left for a bit. Then he’ll initiate play again.

Whilst I think we can manage the puppy, my question is around teaching my dog manners when it comes to playing with the new dog. When he plays with older/bigger dogs, they are very good at taking turns, letting my dog ‘win’ sometimes even though he’s smaller, giving him his space when he’s clearly had enough. My dog doesn’t seem to do this with the puppy, and while it’s not aggressive he definitely dominates the entire game without letting the puppy win. We watch them very carefully and obviously separate them when they need space.

Is there any way to teach a dog nice play manners? Our dog is an older rescue so we haven’t had the luxury of introducing him to new dogs at an early age.
