[pyrnet] Puppy nipping and water games

[ChristineCvs@aol.com]

Pam C,

Thanks for the articles on puppy nipping.  I got a couple of extra tips that I haven't heard at obedience school.  One thing I especially found interesting is the article that speaks about only doing obedience sessions for about 10-15 minutes because the dog gets bored.  This is very true with my Cody.  The obedience class is 1.5 hours and I've lost him after about 20 minutes.  At that point, we both leave frustrated.  He gets to the point in class where he lays down and says, "forget it!"  It sounds like this can be pretty common in Pyrs.  His other classmates don't seem to have this problem.

Cody loves water - I think I've finally stopped him from playing in his water dish!  Do many other Pyrs like playing in water and swimming?
