hi,
meg – i dont think she was so much ‘told’ as ‘terrified’ – doing anything new would have been bad bad bad. she probably wont ever get over it.
she sounds similar to william – i say ‘nice but dim’ but really the problem is he just finds learning so unrewarding. free shaping with him is virtually non existant, you can lure him but only with good treats – no skanky cheddar for him lol !! he’ll get the hang – click – treat and then just loses all motivation.
his main problem is he isnt quick enough for my patience and bonnie (and misty) are/were just so much more rewarding lol !!! who wants to be stuck indoors teaching a complete thicko “bark” and “shutup” when you could be working c5+D with a lurcher and rabbits and getting success !!!
claire.
