I live in duplex and there are lots of houses. And he causes a big noise. thank you vashka <blockquote> <em><strong>Hi Vashka</strong> You stop your puppy from barking by educating both you and your pup!

Hi Vashka
You stop your puppy from barking by educating both you and your pup!
An alternative to attending puppy school, where you should get the appropriate advice, you would need the services of a behaviour consultant.

I have six cats, so it is a bit difficult to monitor the garden every minute of the day! He gets fed morning and evening, but heads straight for the garden ..... However, the dog trainer has assured me that nothing will happen to him. Wat maak nie dood nie, maak vet. <blockquote><em><strong>Hi Lucy</strong> Cat scat certainly seems to be an irresistible doggie dessert but I don’t think it’s all that healthy myself! It just may give your starving Labby (bet he gobbles his food) worms, diarrhea and Ecoli, etc., not to mention bad breath! So just remember not to kiss him because you may also finish up with some dreaded lurgy! I would suggest you bar Poochie-Poopscoop from going anywhere near your cats toilets.
