He's a lovely pup and by the sound of things he is fitting in very nicely x
What's the set up in the crate? With Rosie, she had a crate big enough for her to stand, turn around etc and the bottom of the crate just had her...
He's only been with you about 8 weeks and you have changed his routine (sleeping area) a couple of times within that time. To be honest, I'd bring...
Now that's a cheeky, happy smile on her face :) x
Have you tried him on a hypo-allergenic food with a different protein source, ie without the chicken? There seems to be more and more dogs...
And this is why the collars are not training but aversives. If the dog was truly trained, it wouldn't matter that the gate was left open or the...
One think you may find is that adult treats tend to be bigger so either break them down or use the ones for small dogs
Shouldn't hurt. Remember though to keep them within a reasonable amount because they can easily pile on the pounds. For special treats, I used to...

If you have wood floors I'd also go for the above type water bowl and it he still manages to slide it, a bit of blutack might help
I doubt adding dry food into the mix will badly upset his tum, but you may get softer than usual stools for a couple of days until his digestive...
Heather, I usually just click on the 'new posts' bit as, being lazy, I can't be bothered to click through all the separate sections.
It's January. January is a miserable month so maybe our computers are reacting to it :)
and that's exactly what you should do. No reprimand, no eye contact, just stop and wait until he does walk off then reward him with praise, treat, a...
You have a well fenced back garden. You plan to give your dog plenty of exercise and go to training. No need whatsoever to cause your dog discomfort...
