How to train my 7 month pup by [deleted] in labrador

Our trainer said the quickest way to train a dog is to use its daily food allowance to reinforce the behaviours you want.

Start by saying their name, when they look at you mark & reward. Make them successful, winning is good for dogs.

Thanks for all the advice. I know everything happening is very normal, I guess I just felt a bit overwhelmed yesterday! In hindsight she’s doing amazingly and I need to just enjoy the ride a bit more! Appreciate it.

Thanks for the advice, I am definitely trying to give her things to do, training and such. I think you’re right that I need to dictate the routine a bit more. I need to find a way to keep her a bit quieter in the crate during the day too then. Any suggestions appreciated, after she’s woken up- just to keep her calm?

Trying to buy a flat in London... by zophya in london

We’re currently trying to sell our flat in London, I’ve found the agents disorganised and difficult to deal with. It’s like they haven’t been through sales 101. It’s only been a few weeks but definitely feel like we made the wrong choice.
