    Help with car chasing problem!

    Thanks Maxy24. We actually did some clicker training before, but never really followed through with it (primarily because I didn't take the time to really get familiar with the technique and my trainers didn't use it.) I pulled the clicker out over the weekend, read a good clicker book and...

    Hmmm, haven't checked with the breeder, but that's a good idea and easy enough to do so I'll look into it. He's seen the vet a bunch of times over the past few months (for neutering and for follow up for anal gland problem that's since resolved) and I've discussed it with her each time. His...
