Guess this is just a moan really as I know what I need to do.
Pup has (was) brilliant with his training. Excellent recall, I could leave him for up to 5 hours at a time with no problems. He's just over a year old and recently I noticed his recall wasn't as good. I spent 20 minutes in the park last week trying to get him back! So, back to recall training with treats which is going well.
Today, while at work, I got a text from my neighbour saying my dog has been barking non stop every time I'm out. This has been happening for a while. I've rushed home and now all is quiet, but I just feel exasperated with him! I know I'm going to have to go back to leaving him for 5 mins, then gradually build it up again. God knows what I'm going to do about work although I've managed to get a dog sitter while I'm at work next week (I'm only out 4-5 hours, 1-2 days a week, the rest of the time I work from home). Luckily, most of the things we do as a family can involve the dog, apart from swimming lessons.
Does anyone have a quick fix for this knows there's not one, but asking anyway
