Where to start, Elspeth I will be around all day and would love a natter and catch up! And yes Ceilidh is taking after he Mum, with nose in the air!!
Karen Well done on the picture success.
Karen (with Domino) thank you for your wishes and hope to get over Thursday if that fits in with you?
Hudson: Think trying the food will help, you will be surprised at the difference it will make to his nipping as well, he sounds like he is getting too hyper, change it as soon as you can.
You need to ignore him even when he is hanging off your trousers, don't walk about either. Just pretend it isn't happening so that he gets bored and gives up, he will eventually sit down and look up at you, at this point praise and reward him, he will understand he gets rewarded for sitting down at your feet. Also when someone arrives try to teach him to greet them with something nice in his mouth, a tripe stick which he wont want to give up but whilst it is in his mouth he can't nip either.
As for the children ditto what Elspeth said 100% I can honestly say I have never had this problem which I think comes with having so many the others tend to teach the youngsters manners. Logi did use to greet one of my friends by grabbing her sleeve or top hem if she didn't speak to him immediately and did put his tooth through it once!!!! She got really stroppy and doesn't visit anymore, which is not a great loss!!!!! but he only did it to her, Diva tends to jump up at her favourite Aunties and kiss them on the nose or glasses!!!!!!
Hang in there is does get better, I can also put you in touch with the LM Club training
coordinator who will find someone in your area so you can meet up and get training help and tips, her name is Wendy Lacy her phone number is 01943 830565 she is worth a call, I can't remember where you live, keep us posted.
Oh yes Halti's, I do use them if walking a lot into a show in case they spot a friend!! Have use Lupi's but mostly use half chokes as they are great and if pulled up under the chin and behind the ears it really helps to control them, Sophie I haven't forgotten the one for you just haven't been to the wholesalers since will try and get one in the next week or so.
