Gorgeous. He looks as if he should be sitting on a shelf somewhere.

Oh go on then....will tell you about today. He has now started to whimper when he wants to go the loo. Only one 'woopsie' but that was coz I was out- my fella was out cutting the grass and my 'visiting' daughter, who was puppy-sitting did not realise the signs...Fair do's...no worries.
Just ignoring the 'negatives' of which there are few- by distraction and using positive enforcement re. outside activities.
So far, so good. Can't wait until we can take him out. He got two doggy friends already,waiting to meet him- Sally and Tarot who will help him learn to socialise.
Oh....yes. Forget to say. Starting to respond to his name now and find the route to the back garden and back by us 'thigh slapping'and encouraging him to follow.... He can't navigate the back door step yet though....
Started 'lead training'- walking him up and down our (long garden)on his lead. He hates it....he attacks the lead and sometimes stubbornly refuses to budge. We have quickly learnt to hold the lead 'high and tight'.
Also, started to not be as 'visible' to him when he is outside. From tomoz going to start pretending that all humans are 'going out'whilst leaving him alone in his 'safe space'- the Hall. In reality, will just pop outside for 5 mins.
Feel really tight -are we doing 'too much, too soon'? Just want him to be a well-grounded, socialised dog!!
just reading the posts, I think your doing a grand job. but how do you get anything at all done???????? I would not be able to put him down and not stop talking in that voice we all get when something is so cute. oh god, I hope its not me who has that stupid voice?? he is lovely, keep up the good work x
