    I am not in your area, but ... you should know that dog training is about teaching you how to interact with your dog, as opposed to teaching your dog how to do things. Most area Kennel Clubs offer training where you are your dogs partner in the class. The things you will learn will last your lifetime. I applaud the non-punitive approach. A lot of people fly off the handle when their dog chews on the wrong thing, or doesn't quite have potty training down. One of the best things you can do is give them love when they do it right and don't react when they don't. Recognize that he's just a pup. You can trade an acceptable chew toy for your shoes, and you can avoid the problem by closing the closet door so your pup can't get to your shoes. Accidents will happen and learning to potty doesn't happen overnight. Just provide a lot of verbal love when the pup gets it right and don't react when he doesn't. Love and praise are the best tools in your training bag. Congrats on your pup. Can't wait to hear about all of your adventures!

    @sharronhurlbut: Do you have to bath them to get the fish smell off? That is about the only time we bath our dogs, when we are walking on the beach and they find something smelly to roll in. if they're rolling in fish.. yeah we absolutely bath them.. but when they eat it, we haven't because they only smell a few hours in their mouth! hahaha @wizard: Do you think it would be okay to give lake fish instead of salmon type? The bones are a little different I think. Here in Minnesota we catch a lot of fish but I usually toss the remains for the garden. Never thought about giving to the dogs. I really don't know, My forst thought was"why not?" We buy our fish from the market, they give us just what they have at that moment. If we would catch some fish, I think i give it to them only if the water is very healty. (were the fish come from) maybe someone here on the forum knows for sure if it's possible:)
