All of your good luck wishes paid off
. Winnie is now the proud owner of a bronze certificate and a rosette. I don't think she had any idea of the significance of the event, but I was thrilled!
So, believe me, you can teach an old dog some new tricks (or maybe remind her of ones she may have learnt in the past, and forgotton!).
Now on to silver. This looks much tougher to me and will address some of the issues I have with Winnie... such as over excitement in relation to the car (she squeaks, whines etc during the journey), calm roadside walking, and generally being calm and well behaved at all times. She usually barks for the whole training session and the only way I kept her calm tonight was by gently brushing her the whole time....about an hour....she will be the best groomed dog in Britain at this rate
