Doggie Troubles
Diamond is becoming a real pain in the butt. Since Kathleen's been here Diamond's listening skills have dropped dramatically. Talk about a spoiled baby playing games to get attention, and not the good kind of attention.
The only good thing is that she mostly listens to "Go to your pen." However, even that's getting iffy. Today I found her eating leftovers OFF of the stove. She climbed right up and was eating as if it were hers. So today's she's spending a good portion of it in her pen. She's getting worse now that Kathleen is mobile. *sighs* She must like her pen cause she's spending alot of time in there for being bad.

Did you ever consider dog training classes? I learned quite a bit about dog training and psychology by taking classes with our dog Bree. Shoot me an email if you want to know more.

Dude, Diamond failed obedience lessons. She was required to preform the “tricks” we’d learned. She knew them, she could do them, but she didn’t do them when required. There is nothing a training course is going to show us that will help us with her listening. She’s doing it for attention, just like a little kid does when a new sibling first comes around. *shrugs* We’ve discussed going again but neither of think it will do much good. She’s just has to adjust on her own.
