Ok, thanks for keeping me posted. We do have total control with her in the house. The only thing we have issues with is her jumping up, and she's recently getting very nippy when excited. But always comes when called, always stays, down, roll over, fetch anything she knows, she will do, first time, no treats. Brilliant.
As soon as we are outside....different dog.

Apparently the more you are letting the dog off the worse it will get as they are always being positively reinforced...

I did think this but then i thought....she's a large breed, high energy dog. If i dont let her off the lead.....she doesnt get exercised untill my girlfriend can drive us to the forest......on Fri / Sat / Sun so....thats really not much of a life if you ask me. I mean i can take her on long, leaded walks, but by the time i am needing to sit down and have a lil drink and a pant, shes only just got warm. To tire her out sufficiently, on the lead, id need to do nothing all day bar eat, sleep and walk. Not possible.
