Hello, I got my 12 week old Labrador Willow on Saturday. She's very loving and doing well with toilet training, but struggling with a couple of things.
I have a disability and live with my mum. She does the majority of walking at the moment as Willow seems to dislike being on the lead. She will run around fine off the lead, but is really reluctant to walk and my mum has to pick her up sometimes as she just won't budge. With my disability I wouldn't be able to lift her.
She will obey commands like sit and lay, but seems to be lazy and won't follow when you ask her to come.
The other thing is she's teething like crazy and chews everything. We have lots of chew toys and have been telling her no when she nips. Has anyone got any advice/tips?
Thinking of doing some puppy training classes soon to help with the walking on the lead.
Here's some photos of her. Her face melts my heart.
