    @GreenTea yeah I hope it stays nice, we might even get a sunset which would be good. Some people I know are camping down there so might stop and have a chat.

    @Shaunie I don’t unfortunately, apart from giving them a treat as a reward when they do something you want them to do. That quite often worked with Theo then when we got him doing the thing reliably we could stop the treats slowly. Idk if that works on every dog though

    You need a clicker if you want to be training a dog that's difficult. It's a thing you click every time they do the command like "sit" and then get a treat. Helps train then with positive reinforcement

    I use treats and a clicker but sometimes he will not listen to me cause he is so focused on the world ha

    @Past User yes, we did, I'm glad you joined the boards! If you'd like support from the boards, then probably the best place to post about how your feeling would be the health and wellbeing section. 

    This thread is here for general chit chat and is a really good distraction if you're not feeling good. It's similar to the General Chat room, but just on the boards!!
