Sorry to be slow posting on this thread.....I've been busy with a puppy.
Good pointsToileting - Madoc has occasionally gone to the back door spontaneously when needing a wee. It's a start!
Night time - he can go 6 hours between wees. Unfortunately that can be 9.00 - 3.00 rather than midnight to 6.00 but again there's hope!
He comes when called, sits and is learning down providing there are no distractions
Eats well & no tummy problems
Howling & crying when put in puppy pen or crate or car are getting less each time
He's so cute when he runs. He bounds around the garden, being frightened by blowing leaves, falling over his feet & loving life
Bad pointsToileting - still very hit and miss. OH & I are getting much better at anticipating Madocs needs and getting him outside but he will still do a small wee outside then come in to do a big one!
Night time. Given half a chance is wide awake and raring to go at 5.30 - way too early for me
Mad half hours - quite funny when he's tearing around the coffee table in circles but he's started barking & biting wildly, mostly at me. He calms down after time outs so hoping to nip this one in the bud
Still howls & cries when he doesn't get what he wants
Doesn't like being groomed
Overall we're very happy though working hard at training Madoc and preventing him training us! Most importantly he's gorgeous, cuddly & I love him
