we are hoping so. tbh i think she spent a great deal of time just being left to her own devices with her last owners. i must admit i was going to go for another springer but when we seen the advert and went to look at her she was adorable.

Glad things are going better, sounds like a pretty big improvement to what it was.

Good luck with the long line,try and train her to come back to the whistle,we do 3 quick pips for here and 1long one for sit,take loads of treats with you and be generous when she even attempts to come towards you the whistle is better than your voice because she won't. Be able to hear panic,or crossness in your voice if she buggers off etc.I managed to stop my beagle half way down a huge field the other day,where his playmate was,get him to. Sit and wait for me,and then carry on,all on the whistle,so is achievable,a good recall now is vital for later on,once she's come through the horror,I mean teenage stage
