Talk about ornery...

I had a trainer come over because Max doesn't come, sit, etc. unless he feels like it. He certainly knows how! She was wonderful with him and showed me some things. He doesn't like to be restricted, and is stubborn! She loved him.

The past few days, whenever I get out the training treats, Gracie Leigh is thrilled to do it. She sits as soon as she sees the treats.

Max - is Max. He won't look at me, goes and gets a toy for me to play with him, and certainly isn't going to be trained!

I called the trainer and she told me to ignore him for a day or two. He won't like that.

I feel so bad doing it! I hope it works because it's breaking my heart.

LOL Judy, he knows you're a softie and is smart enough to work you down.

Ahhh!! Max sounds like my Maggie, and Gracie Leigh sounds like Bailey.
You've got to show him who the boss is, and as soon as you realize it's not you, everything will be fine.

How funny! He is the boss and will break me down. At least GL knows to listen.

Judy my Chipper has me trained. I haven't done well at training him but he usually gets what he wants from me.

Mine have me trained pretty well, too. It's actually pretty sad. Wish I had time to really train them!!! The dog whisperer is awesome. Wish I could do the things he does.
