Really need some help and advise with my rescue dog please.

Look in the sticky s section – puppy training /lead training age of dog no real difference just may be slower to pick it up 😉

Better if she was on a collar as a harness can play hell with a BF coat.
Did she come from a puppy farm?
Go back to the being a puppy so put the collar and lead on in the house let her drag it about indoors before you start on the big wide world

Hi Val, yes, I think she did come from a puppy farm in Wales!  :boooo:  So sad, she’s such a wonderful dog. Thanks for the advice about the harness, at the moment she is pretty bald as her fur was in such a state that the rescue kennels had to scalp her!!  :'(  I read on another site that I should try a harness. Anyway, I will try what you have advised for now and let you know how I get on. Wish me luck!! xx

Poor little dear if she’s puppy farm then the world is going to frighten her so as I said go back to puppy, Carry her outside so that she gets used to sounds noise and smells and leave the collar and lead on at home,Not morning to night but for a few hours at a time.
As a groomer I would suggest you find a good groomer and in a month go for a visit not for a cut but just to visit, I do two FP BF one was fine the other only had three legs and was a nighmare she is much better now but best to play meet the groomer after all she will have to be done for life
