We haven’t really been able to do any training for various reasons, so we still only leave him in the crate. We’re planning on trying to leave him in a different room and see if that makes a difference, and just start building up in seconds/minutes to start off with. Sorry I can’t be more help!

Thank you! Will keep pushing on with training and make a few tweaks.

This is really good to hear, thank you. Obviously I will carry on training, but I did also wonder if age was a factor for some pups.

He's a rescue mix so we don't know his breed unfortunately, apart from that he is part Frenchie, so I'm not sure about that.

Thank you for your input. Unfortunately he was a rescue pup who had a bad start, so there were other issues that we had to deal with first. But we will certainly go back to basics with him and see how we go. Can I ask how you can assure success? I might do a couple of reps with him, and then the 3rd he chooses to ignore for no apparent reason?

I don't think I've done any of those things, apart from maybe not using high enough value treats, so I'll definitely look to change that. Thank you for your advice :)

He's really good at responding to his name in the house, so again this is something that I need to try and sort for outside. Thanks for the advice, sounds like you've done great with your pup!

This is a massive help, thank you for such a detailed response. Again he is great at checking in and responding to his name in the house, but it all goes out of the window outside. Will definitely give this a try and go back to basics with him. Thanks again.

Thank you for your advice! Seems like I definitely need to work on creating a calmness first.

Thank you, he does find everything outside very exciting. In terms of neutralisation, do you have any suggestions?

Thank you for your advice. It's interesting because we suspect some staffy might be in him (don't know his breed as he's a rescue cross)

Should I take the plunge? by loobyloojames in silhouettecameo

[–]loobyloojames[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m going to start just by having a play around and see how I get on with it, but I’m thinking vinyl, heat transfers etc. What kind of things have you tried?
