    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!

    One of my girls has also trained me to lift the covers so she can burrow down and sleep under them. The other sleeps quite happily in her own bed, but has a habit of jumping on my husband when she wakes up, so he will give her a belly rub. Let's face it - they all train us - we have only what input they allow.

    @Janneke: Great pics! Your pups look wonderful! Is that a showleash around Haileys neck? Have you got plans to show her? Yes thats her showleash :D Well, we have plans to show her, she likes it to practise and she get so much better in shape since we have her. She only has trouble with touching by other people, thats someting we're working on now, if she's gonna like it, we think we try a clubmatch to see of she lika a whole show! @BasenjiDiva: Wonderful pictures! Poor Buana looks like an accordian! hahahaha yes! it's a shame he doesn't work proper… He yodels... he can't make an accordian sound! hahaha Pat @MacPack: Great photos, your boys are very masculine and strong-looking, and Hailey looks lovely. Everyone had a good time in the sunshine. Thanks a lot! the love the sun.. and after a long cold winter it's so nice to enjoy the sun! @AndrewnShango: I am just totally and thoroughly in love with Chafuko! :D Thanks!!! We love him soo much, he's our little joker… :D His caracter is also very nice, he is very playful and get every dog to play and every people to hug him hahaha Yesterday, I changed his wegpage. We're going to test him in a few weeks (we hope we can get an appointment soon) for his Hips(HD), his Theroid, HA and his eyes. Both parents tested free for fanconi but we're tinking about testing both boys also. And then, if there are breeders interested for Chafuko as stud, maybe he can be a daddy! (it's a shame, in Holland the breeders are so weird, they just won't take a not-breeders stud as our boys, out of principles... sigh...)
