Thanks Evanea, Kris, Debbie and Melanie. At the moment I'm just feeling pretty overwhelmed and a little bit "out of my mind " just like Cody. I am like so in over my head. Sad for me, bad for my dogs. So, I'm back to the beginning. I think I will simply concentrate on getting a rock solid down, which I don't yet have. Don't get me wrong, my dogs are good dogs. I just want them to be able to do the agility, flyball and obedience, mainly because I want to keep them occupied at something they can enjoy. And I enjoy it too. If I can't offer them sheep, I want to give them something. The problem is that I'm having to learn at the same time that I am teaching them. Sorry to unload..frustrating day. I want so much to do right by them and everytime I turn around it seems I've screwed something else up.
Debbie, you said that you correct your dogs if they bite, no matter the reason. What exactly do you do when you correct them?
Thanks.
Namaste'
